Jere N. Pound Not to
Be Re-Nomina.ed

Atlanta. July 22.-At least one OF
Hoke Smiths appointments on the
state board of education, DR.. Jere M.
Pound. president of the Athens Nor
NAL School, will not be re-nomina-
ted by Governor Brown. DR.. Pounds
name will not appear in the list of
appointments on the board that will
be sent to the senate for confrma-
ton tomorrow.
This information came from an
accredited source today when it was
given out by the governor that ap-
pointments on the board of educa-
ton would be sent in tomorrow
T. J. Woofer, of the University of
Georgia, named by Hoke Smith as
lnemoer ol th3 board, will be reap
pointed by Governor Brown, and j.
C. Laneston, also appointed by Gov.
Smith, may receive the Brown fiat.
Walter Steed. recently named by
Governor Brown to succeed the late
Judge 7. G. Lawson, of Eatonton,
will be nominated.
Neither the governor nor his Sec
retaries would give out the appoint
ments today, but the list is made up
and was sent to the senate shortly
after noon, just after the upper
house had adjourned.
The present members of the state
board were appointed by Governor
Smith last fall and were made as
ad interim appointments. The board
was created during the last session
of the legislature and the bill Great
ing the board was not approved by
Governor Smith until after the leg
islature had adjourned.
1t was rumored that Acting Gov
ernor SIaton would take occasion to
change at least one of the appoint
ments during the extra session in
January if it was found that the
legislature could transact other BUSH
ness than the Inauguration of Gov.
Brown.
According to the best information
the new board will be: The COVER
nor and the school SUPPLEMENTARY
virtue of their offices, Brown ap-
pointee, T. j. Woofer, Walter Snead
and j. C. Langston, or Brown ap-
pointee in Langston's stead.

Stamp Tax On Liquor
Committee Passes Tippins
Bill---Levy Of Sc Gallon
on Beer; 6Oc on
Whisky.

Atlanta, Ca. July 17.-Perhaps
the most drastic measure affecting
the consumption Of liquor ever en-
acted in Georgia passed the senate
today in the form Of stamp tax rang
ine from s cents to so cents gallon
on beer, wines and whiskey.
The tax move required two bills,
one providing the tax and the other
requiring all common carriers to re-
port liquor shipment to county Or
dinaries.
That the Tippins bill will pass the
senate with votes to spare is indica-
ted by the passage of the stamp bills
by 90 to IL. Senator Sheppard de-
clared there were 81 senators who
were for prohibition, first last and all
the time, enough even to pass the
Tippins bill over the governors veto.
The Tippins bill will be considered
by a committee this afternoon and
reach the senate perhaps tomorrow
recommended for passage. 1t is
believed that the proposed amend
ment will be withdrawn.
The measure, pronounced d solu-
ton of the liquor problem in Georgia
by it's author, Senator Fielder, and
branded an absurdity by its oppo-
nents, provides:
Common carriers are to report all
liquor shipments to ordinarieS under
pain of mlsdemeanor.
List of shipments are to 90 to SUI
perior court clerks who shall have
charge of the sale of revenue stamps.
Every person having liquor in his
possession is required to buy revenue
stamps OF 3 cents gallon on Deer
20 cents a gallon on wine and so
cents a gallon on whisky.
The money derived from the stamp
tax is to 90 to state treasury.
rFhe vote on the bill gave good evil
idence of the prohibition sentiment
of the senate. With four senators
absent the vote stood % in favor
and II against the stamp act.
The bill was passed on prohibition
lines and it was only after the senate
had assured itself that it was a pro-
hibition bill that it was passed.

Approves Crime
To Right Wrong

Los Angeles, July 19-Stating his
social theories in response to a
searching cross-examination by Dis
trict Attorney John H. Fredericks,
Lincoln Steffens, magazine writer.
on the stand today in the trial Of
his friend, Attorney Clarence S. OAR
row, charged with bribing. asserted
that he saw nothing wrong in free
ing man whom he knew was guilty
of murder when the motive was the
result of class resentment against
injustice.
Steffens is the most important
witness yet introduced by the de-
Tense. Through him the defense
hopes to show that the arrangements
for bringing IN pleas of guilty in the
Mcnamara case had been completed
before the bribery scandal was
sprung. If his story stands, motive
in the alleged bribery will be oblit-
Grated.
You are an anarchist, are you
not?" asked Fredericks.
Worse than that" said Steffens.
You believe in the anarchists
doctrine and 90 them one BETTER"
Not exactly"
did you not in a speech for Job
Hartman, as Socialist candidate for
mayor, declares that if there was an
anarchist running against him you
would vote for the anarcist?"
Something like that
you represented all through theee
negotiations that j. j. Mcnamara
would have to 60 free?"
Eyes,"
You knew he was guilty?"
YES; knew it."
When did you learn he was
guilty.
About three days after | arrived
on November 10, when | saw the
McNamaras and learned directly
they were guilty"
You see nothing wrong in trying
to free a man guilty of a murder
like this?"
mo: not for that sort of a crime,
which was not an individual crime
but social crime, the result of re-
sentiment of a class against injustice
what call revolutionary crime.
In my talks with the McNamaras it
was evident to me they represented
a great mass of American people
who believe they can not get justice
except by crime"

Where, Oh, Where Is
"WireIess" Wilson?

New York, July ia new way
of serving a prison sentence while
staying out of Jail, appears to be the
good fortune of Colonel Christopher
Columbus Wilson, president of the
United Wireless Telegraph Company.
If what his old acquaintance say is
true, the colonel is around town do
ing very nicely. In May, 1911, the
colonel was sentenced to three years
in Atlanta Federal prison for using
the mails to defraud. He was brought
to New York last spring to testify
in bankruptcy proceedings. He lodg-
ed at the Tombs. but the warden
says that when the colonel left there
for court July |, accompanied by
Keeper Shea from Atlanta henever
came back. Neither is he in the
Ludlow street Jail. Warden Meyer,
at Atlanta, says he has not returned
there, either. He adds that he knows
nothing of the colonies being par
oled.
The colonel is reported as spend
ins the time pleasantly here and
there. Some say they see him now
and then in Wall Street Ais attor-
ney, Arthur King, says all he knows
is that-the colonel is in the custody
of Keeper Shea.
