friends. Mr.. Peck was very confident
in his forecasts. Of course he is an adj

forecasts, very pleasing to Democrats OF

Moore will be returned to the bench by
a safe majority, We don't know what
Mr.. Peck's bases are, but he has GER

Swanson is for Income Tax.


Richmond, Va, Jan. IA &C ov
Swanson to-day sent to the Legislature
a special message on the proposed in
come tax amendment to the Federal
Constitution recommending its prompt
approval.
No substantial reason exists, he
states, why our Government should
be deprived of the power Of imposing a
tax so Just and fair.
The proposed amendment will re-
move the Supreme Court Of the United
States on this subject from the arena of
political contention and strife. The ex-
penditures OF the Federal Government
are rapidly increasing each year. At
present most OF its vast revenue is col
lected by tax upon consumption
thus the people are taxed on what they
need, not on what they possess. A fair
system OF taxation should be based on
the abundance Of the people and not on
their necessities. 4

BURTON SHOOTS wRAY
Fulton Liveryman Assaulted Him
il Hotel.

N f1Otcl.
Fulton, Ky, Jan. 1s.-A terrible
tragedy was enacted to-day in the offies
Of the Meadows Hotel, when Ernest
Wray, a Nashville detective, was shot
twice and MORALLY wounded by L. ".
Burton, weIl-known liveryman. Bur-
ton was arrested this morning upon two
charges Of bootlegging, the information
for the arrest being furnished by Wray
and a companion by the name Of +. S.
Baker, who is from the same detective
agency. Burton asked that the two
cases against him lie deferred until to-
morrow, and gave bond in the sum Of
5000. In the courtroom Burton de-
mandedto.know who preferred charges
against him. Mayor Swami at first re-
fused to tell him, but Burton insisted
upon his right to know, and was finally
told that Wray furnished the iniorma-
ton.
A short while later Burton went to
the Meadows Hotel, and entering the
Office, asked Baker if his name was
Wray. Baker thereupon pointed out
Wray, and Burton walked up to him
and repeated the question. Receiving
an affirmative reply, he is alleged to
have struck Wray terrific blow on
the head with a stick, the mans left
ear being almost severed by the blow.
Both men drew pistols then, and wit
nesses differ as TO which fired the first
shot, although the majority say that
they believe Burton fired first. He
only fired twice, one bullet ranging
across the stomach, just penetrating the
hollow, while the other entered the
body just below the stomach and came
out OF the victims back.
After the shooting Burton quietly
walked out of the hotel and crossed
over to the Tennessee side, where his
stable is located, where he surrendered
to City Marshal Weaver. Later he re-
turned to the Kentucky side and gave
himself up to the officials.
The wounded detective was rushed to
Nashville on the evening train.
wRAY's STATEMENT.
The injured detective made the fol-
lowing statement:
Il was standing at the hotel register
right after dinner, and had picked up
the telephone receiver, fixing to call up
the mayor. Some one touched me and
asked me, from behind, if my name
was Wray. said it was, and was
struck on the side of the head as I
turned round, and at the same time
some one began shooting at me. saw
hat it was Laburn Burton. He shot me
several times in the body, and as / fell
fired one shot at him, which didn't
seem to come near him. After / had
lallen he pointed his gun at me as II he
vas going to shoot again, but he then
into an adjoining room.
He did all his shooting before | had
ime to fire. Mayor Swami told Bur-
on few minutes before the shooting
hat had told the South Fulton off
,ers that he was selling whisky"
Burton s statement differs materially
rom that Of his victim. His statement
$ as follows:

The December report of the city's
surveyors now gauging the rain and
snow fall in the Lake Eleanor region
has been received by City Engineer
Manson and shows that the precipita-
tion in the mountains for the month
exceeded expectations, as did Novem4
bers.
The two observers in charge of the
three stations at the lakeside and in
the water shed are making the first
extended scientific study of the matter
in the higher attitudes of the Sierras.
The observations made in former years
at La Grange by the United States
weather bureau have been the basis for
calculating the rainfall and runoff the
city might count upon, taking the lean
est three years in 80 years of service.
Manson has been pleased to learn that
the observations of this year have con-
hrmed fully the amounts calculated
upon.
December's rainfall at Lake Eleanor
totaled 1872 inches. Part of this was
made up of 25.S inches snowfall. which
packed to a depth of inches.
The highest temperature was 60 de-
grees; the lowest, 4 degrees. The mean
maximum temperature was 45.8 de-
grees; the mean minimum, 1876. The
greatest range in any one day was SO.
