She picked a few blossoms even the first
year and more and more each year there
after. In later years you broke or for

The second day of the Columbia COun-

ing with weather conditions even better
than yesterday. There was no sun to
bother the players, and the breeze from
the southwest was the only handicap to
be reckoned with.

to pick on past form.

retary Meyer said that no one had yet

AS to Robin Cooper, the case, also
by a divided vote, is reversed and
remanded to the lower court foN a
new trial.
Quick Pardon From Gov. Patterson.
While Chief Justice Beard was
reading a dissenting opinion in the
case of Duncan B. Cooper, Governor
Patterson wrote a full pardon for
the defendant, in which he declares:
"In my opinion neither of the de-
PENDANTS is guilty, and they have not
had a fair and impartial trial, but
were convicted contrary to the law
and evidence"
The reversal in the case of Robin
Cooper is based on assignments of
error In the trial judges failing to
charge separately as to Robin Coop
er's theory of self-defense, linking
the defense Of the two defendants
together; excluding testimony OF
Governor Patterson as to talks with
defendant Robin Cooper and advice
given him as to Colonel Cooper be-
fore the tragedy; and the admission
on cross-examination of Robin Cooper
as to intent of certain states wit
nesses in testifying as to certain in
cidents.
The action of Governor Patterson
in pardoning the aged slayer of Sen
ator Carmack has created a stir in
Tennessee, and his action is o
or less roundly denounced.
What effect the governors action
will have politically in the state is
problematical.

CORPORATION TAX.

Supreme Court May Uphold Its
ConstitutionaIity.
Washington.-The fact that the
supreme court did not include the
corporation tax cases when it or
dered the. Standard Oil and the to-
bacco cases back to calendar for re-
argument, is construed by leading
members Of the house judiciary COM
mittee to mean that the court has
probably upheld the constitutionality
of the corporation tax.
The decisions of the supreme
court have practically been uniform
in ali cases where the right of the
government to impose an excise tax
has been questioned. ~ the corpora
ton tax cases the question at issue
is whether or not the tax in dispute
is properly enc Of excise. The case
was argued a few weeks ago and the
decision Of the court may be handed
down almost any day, according to
Solicitor General Bowers, of the de
partment of justice. The decision
must be handed down before July 1.
when the law is Intended to go into
affect.
