Liquor Argument

Whenever preacher goes wrong, is accused
of misconduct especially if he is who has been
identified with the temperance movement the liquor
papers seize the item as a hungry vulture seizes
bit of carron. The fact is, the liquor business
has so little argument which to stand that must
resort to lying, hypocrisy and the occasional apses
of churchman in order to get material for the col
umns of its exponent journals. Most of the daily
newspapers and practically all of the weekies as
well the great majority of magazines either have
taken positive stand against the business or are
refusing to give it countenance.

VIOLATIONS.
Dynamiting of Steams Must Be
Stopped Before 1t is Too Late and
He Will Work to See that the Laws
are Enforced.

Our game laws inaugurated this
season have worked most successful
ly," said State Game and Commission
er Jesse e. Mercer to a News re-
porter yesterday, "but, now that the
hunting season is rapidly drawing to
a close we must give our attention
to the fish laws, which also come un-
der my department, and see that these
laws are rigidly enforced, or it will
only be a short time before you will
see a great scarcity of fish in Geor-
gia streams. | realize that the blast
ing of fish with dynamite does not
affect You people here on the coast to
any great extent, but in the fresh
water streams, it is simply killing the
fish at very rapid rate, and an end
Will have to be put to it,
Mr. Mercer talked very Interestingly
ly Of the new game laws, and said
that he had experienced very little
trouble during the season, citing only
three or four violations which were
reported to him
But he stated that he was we'll
aware of the fact that the state fish
laws were being violated, and he has
Instructed every county warden in the
state to use every effort to see that
these laws ere rigidly enforced. He
said it is against the law to dyna-
mite streams in order to get fish, and
while he well knows that the law is
being violated he has as yet been un-
able to secure the necessary evidence
against the violators to convict thea.
Mr. Mercer met a large number Of
Brunswick sportsmen during the sny

DOZEN ARRESTS
In DARIEN CASE
WARRANTS AND COUNTER WAR
RANTS ISSUED BY THOSE
In SHAD CASE.

The reported trouble between a
Glynn county deputy game warden
and number of shad fishermen in
the Altamaha river, referred to in
these columns yesterday morning,
seems to have developed to be a
fight between two fishing camps.
AS soon as State Game and Fish
Commissioner Mercer, who happened
to be in the city yesterday, learned
of the trouble, he secured an automo-
bile and, accompanied by local War
den P. M Golden, went over to Da-
rien to make an investigation into the
case.
1t seems that Deputy Manning had
arrested eight negroes, who were
Caught violating the law. These ne
groes were fishing for a camp near
Darien, and when they stated to those
in charge of the camp that Manning
had threatened to shoot, warrants
were sworn out against the warden.
Then warrants and counter warrants
were issued, arrest after arrest was
made, peace warrants and warrants of
every other kind were issued, and, as
a result, about dozen arrests were
made and all hands will be given a
preliminary trial in Darien on Satur-
day, February "a.
1t seems, however, that Warden
Manning is also connected with a
fishing camp near Darien, and the en-
tire affair seems to be a fight between
these two camps.

again, any one may verify the fact
after q visit to the school, that the

ing will surpass anything they had
ever anticipated. | refer to this as
it is one of the real strong features

which all impartial persons will agree.
as being of the greatest excellence.
Among one of the visions for the
future | might say that the employ
ment OF teachers for twelve months of
the. year instead of nine months, as
is now carried out by the board, ap-
peals to me as having features which
should be of vast benefit both to the
teachers and the board. In doing this
it wonll be possible to carry out a
course for the vacation whereby any
deficiency in the regular course Of
pupils might be brought up in a few
weeks to the standard required by the
regular course. 1t would enable the
teachers during the time of vacation
to take up a course at some training
school, thereby to be better prepared
to handle matters pertaining TO their
customary duties. And again, another
vision, is that of making the school
plant as it exists in this community
today, of more real value by utilizing
t to its fullest extent as a social cen
ter Of the town. These buildings and
this equipment, like that Of all others
in different parts Of the country, lay
idle for the greater portion of the
year and their utilization should carry
with il the uptulding and the uplift-
ing Of the moral, social and intellec-
tial standard Of the community. Why
do We allow our MAGNIFICENT High
School equipment to be used for only
few hours each day in the instruc-
tion Of the High school pupils when
there are possibilities many times

Elliott had submitted.
Wright said that Elliott had

advanced money for completion Of

roll, they were reimbursed from the

FLETCHER SAYS
ELLIOTT REPORT
IS NOT OFFICIAL
gEN1oR FLORIDA SENATOR DE-
cLAREs CIRCULAR WAS KEPT
rom REPORT BY WILSON.
House Committee Having investiga-
tion in Charge Hears Solicitor for
Agriculture Department Explain
McCabe Outlines Position.

Washington, Feb. 10.-George P.
McCabe, solicitor of the department
Df agriculture, appeared before the
house committee on expenditures in
Ehat department today to outline the
attitude of Secretary Wilson and him
self win relation to the Florida Ever
glade land case, the charges of sup
pressed reports made by Representa-
tives Clark and Bathrick, and the dis
charge of Chief Drainage Engineer G
G. Elliott and his assistant, A. A.
Morehouse.
1t has been charged that a report
of J. o. Wright, formerly depart
ment engineer, and now drainage en-
gineer for the state of Florida, was not
printed in a senate document on the
situation in the Everglades until Mr.,
Wright had revised the proofs to con-
form with his original notes.
Senator Fletcher of Florida, who
mad the Everglade papers printed as a
document, does contain the full re
pot made by ]. O. Wright" and that
lit appears in the document precisely
as ordered set up and printed by the
proper officers of the department"
Fletcher Didn't Know.
Why publication of the report was
stopped originally in 1910, Senator
Fletcher declared, was not known.
Another phase to be investigated by
the committee is why the circular on
she Everglades, published by order of
Engineer Elliott and afterward sup
pressed, it is said, by order of Secre-
tary Wilson, was not printed in the
senate document.
THE Elliott circular" said Senator
Fletcher, "Was not put in senate doc
nment No. SO because it was never
the contrary, as soon as he saw
sypewritten copy of the proposed cir
cular, he condemned it and ordered
that it be not printed or distributed.
The reason, it is supposed, was the
circular expressed opinions or offered
advice, and it did not purport to give
data gathered in scientific research.
That circular never was an official
document, and, therefore, had no place
IN any document giving authentic Of
Gcial records on a subject
McCabe's Testimony.
McCabe took up two phases of the
aase, the suppressed reports and the
discharge of Elliott and Morehouse,
and the suspension of F. e. Single
