WASHINGTON. July S.-Little con-
corning the Democratic campaign con-
tributions of 1904 was CLEANED from
Tom Taggart chairman of the national
Democratic committee fro 1904 until
after the nomination of Bryan in 1908,
when the Indianapolis politician took
the stand today before the subcommit-
tee of the senate committee on privi-
leges and elections Disclaiming all
personal knowledge of any contri-
buttons save one of about $1,000, which
he made himself, Mr. Taggart declar-
ed he had learned from his associates
that August Belmont, Thomas F. Ryan
and Cord Meyer were the chief contri-
butors
you have no idea of the approximate
receipts and expenditures of the com
mittee?" Senator Clapp asked.
mo sir" replied Taggart. when
we got through it wasn't worth while"
After the reorganization of the COM
mttee in 1908 Taggart said he surren-
dered all records of the committee to
Chairman Mack. but burned the records
relating to contributions believing them
of no further use as they were then
four years old.

Mr.. Hardwick is In the race to sue

desire to serve under a Democratic ad-
ministration, all gubernatorial ambi-
tons for the present.

AACuOuSH the impression is WluS-
spread that Horace N Holden, former
supreme court justice. will be a candi-

an unequivocal and formal announce

he ever will, now that Mr. Hardwick
has renounced his gubernatorial as
piratons, although that doubt may be
entirely unwarranted
There are those who say the judge
gave out the informal suggestion that
he might run, with the idea firmly fixed
in his mind that Mr.. Hardwick would
be in the race against Mr.. Slaton and
Mr.. Hall, and now that Mr. Hardwick
has plunged headlong into the congress
sional waters of the Tenth, Judge Hol-
den's tentative candidacy for congress
will be permitted quietly to lapse.
At all events, Hardwick Is the only
avowed candidate in the race in the

WITNESSES TELL OF
GOOD CHARACTER OF
BARROW IN DEFENSE

Los ANGELES, July 9-More char
acter DISPOSITIONS were ready to read
into the record by the Darrow defense
at the morning session of Judge Hut
tons court today A long list of addi-
tional dispositions will have to be dis
posed of before the first witness is
called to the stand OF the dispositions
so far read, that of former Senator
"Billy'' Mason, of Chicago, is the most
forceful Mason testified that he had
known Darrow for many years in a
professional way. He knew that in the
community his reputation was of the
very best, and by the community he
meant the entire city of Chicago-the
entire state.
Regarding the possibility of bringing
the McNamaras here from San Ouen-
tin penitentiary to testify for barrow.
Earl Rogers, leading counsel for the
defense, said:
I'VE have not communicated with
them yet We will first have to get
their consent under promise to limit
their examination to a particular sub
ject. The nature of this | do not care
to disclose. We will decide soon. how
ever, whether to communicate with the
McNamaras or not"
Unquestionably the line of testimony
the McNamaras would be asked to give
would be to the effect that they had
agreed to plead guilty before Frank
Inns arrest for jury bribery

FIGHT BATTLE WITH RATS:

Of carpenters in the employ Of the Phil

away the board flooring in the stables
at the Henry Clay colliery. Some of the

Clark Howell shaved his moustache
He left Baltimore the Saturday of con-
vention week with his moustache intact
and as graceful as of yore; he landed in
Atlanta moustachelesS and almost I'M
recognizable. None of the oldest inhab-
itants hereab bouts remember moustache-
less Clark Howell of the past; but they
are up against one today.
Hints of a lost election bet are thick
in the air, but as to that Mr.. Howell is
mum.
All anybody knows, or seems destined
to know. is that the moustache isn't
there any more.
Senator William H. Ennis was an in
terested onlooker while the state Demo-
cratic executive committee was in ses-
sion Saturday.
Senator Ennis, in all probability, will
be a candidate for solicitor general of
the Rome circuit against the present hold
er of the office, John w Bale of Wal
ker
Mr.. Ennis was solicitor before Mr.. Bale.
and was defeated by that gentleman four
years ago in one of the warmest fights
ever waged in north Georgia Mr. Ennis
carried Floyd county, but was over
whelmed by Mr. Bale in Chattooga and
Walker, the other Two counties in the
Rome judicial circuit
When the proposition was pending in
the sub committee of the state commit
tee Saturday as to whether solicitors
and judges should be nominated in the
forthcoming primary under the unit or
the plurality rule, Mr.. Ennis was asked
for an opinion, and Immediately said that
he thought the plurality system would be
fairer in his circuit, and for that reason
he hoped it would be adopted. He real
lied, of course, that the unit system
probably would have worked to his ben
eft inasmuch as he is conceded to be
very strong in his home county of Floyd,
but he said he would consider such a
victory questionable in the end, and he
would prefer the other manner of nomi-
mating,
Mr.. Ennis outspoken attitude in this
matter doubtless had something to do
with shaping the committees final action.
The Tippins bill was framed ito
abolish the sale Of near beer in Geor-
gia," so q contemporary says; and
that is rather curious, since nobody
sells near-beer in this state.
