NOT A ROBIN IN GEORGIA
SAYS THE GAME WARDEN
Little Yankees Didn't Come South
This Winter.

The entire absence of robins in
Americas this winter and spring has
been commented upon as most unus-
ual and now comes Game Warden
Jesse Mercer with the statement that
as far as he can learn there is not a
robin in Georgia this year. He at
tributes their failure to make their
annual visit to the fact that the win
ter has been so mild that the robins
have no found it necessary to come
South for comfort.

UNDERWOOD WILL
ASK APPOINTMENT
OF G. R. HUTCHENS
Sen. SMITH WILL OPPOSE IT
What viii the President Do
About Ii

Atlanta, Ca, March 24-It is report
ed here that the only appointment
from Georgia for which Hon. Oscar
W. Underwood, Democratic leader of
the House of Representatives, will
ask President Wilson is that of Hon.
G. R. Hutchins, to be district attorney
for the Northern district of Georgia.
1t is also well understood that the one
appointment from Georgia which Unit
ed States Senator Hoke Smith vii
urge President Woodrow Wilson not
to make is that of Hon. G. R. Hutchins
as district attorney for the Northern
district of Georgia.
This is going to put up to President
Wilson one of the most interesting is.
sues in the matter of appointments to
federal Office that will perhaps come
to him from any section of the country
On the one hand, the man who was
President Wilson's opponent prior to
the Democratic convention at Balti-
more, but who is now necessarily his
close political friend and co-adviser in
public matters, is asking him for but
one favor in the entire state of Geor-
gia. He is making the request upon
the theory that President Wilson
means what he said when he made the
statement that there should be no dis
tinction between Democrats because OF
differences prior to the Baltimore CON
yention.
President Wilson feels that he has
got to depend strongly upon Mr.. I'm
derwood in shaping the policies of his
administration, and there is no ques-
ton but that Mr.. Underwood's request
will have great weight with the exec
utive.
On the other hand, if there is any
enc thing that Senator Hoke Smith
wants to do in the matter of Georgia
appointments, it is to defeat Mr.
Hutchins for this place. Mr.. Hutch
ms was not only the Underwood man
ager preceding the Baltimore conven-
ton, but he has persistently and con.
sistently fought Mr.. Smith in every
one of his Georgia campaigns. Ac-
cording to reports from Washington,
therefore, Mr.. Smith is ready to go 70
practically any extent to prevent the
appointment of Mr. Hutchins.
This situation is said to have elm
mated already the Hon. Hooper Alex
ander from consideration in connection
with the North Georgia district attor-
neyship. 1t was Mr. Alexander 10
whom Mr.. Smith was most anxious to
give this appointment But it is I'M
derstood that he is willing IN Give ~,
the appointment for Alexander in the
event that by doing so, he can defeat
Mr. Hutchins.

GOVERNMENT IS

Recent Developments May

Savannah, Ga, March PA ques
ton asked today was what effect the
change in the status of affairs of the
American Naval Stores company would
have upon the governments dissolu-
ton suit? The government will ID
nothing to hamper the bankers COM
mittee in its effort to make the asses
pay the creditors claims, so long as
the committee does not run afoul of
the law. The government would not
pursue a phantom
District Attorney Alexander Aker-
man, who has been here since Tues
day closely observing developments
was asked how the action of the cred
itors had affected the dissolution pros
ecution. He said he had not taken the
matter up with the department of JUS
tice, and was not in a position to
speak with authority.
Speaking individually, he said,
without having authority to speak
from Washington, 1 am very anxious
for some plan to be devised which
would have tendency to steady con-
ditions. But as to the details of such
a plan the government has no interest
except to see that the law is not VIC
lated"
"The object of the bill filed by the
government is to dissolve the corpora
tion," he said. IF, by reason of fnaa-
ciaI reverses, the corporation is COM
PEELED to dissolve itself, it would be
folly for the government to pursue the
matter further The future action of
the district attorneys office will be
governed by subsequent develop
ments."
