Cong. CRISP
IS OFF FOR
WASHINGTON
AFTER BRIEF VACATION HERE
Expects Delay in Tariff Leg
iSIatiOn

Representative Charles R. Crisp re-
turned Monday night to Washington af-
ter having spent two weeks at his
home here. His visit at home was rer
dered possible by the fact that the
house of representative is practical
ly adjourned during the long period IN
which the senate committee has beer
looking into the tariff revision bill sub
mitted by the house. The committee
is ready to report to the senate th.a
bill, with the notifications made, and
this will be done this week, in all prot
ability. Then will another long delay
result, as the senate, Mr.. Crisp thinks
will consume at least six weeks in de-
bate upon the bill.
Upon its return to the house, some
time in September, the bill will b?
passed without delay, Mr. Crisp be-
lieves, and will then be ready for the
Presidents signature. The general
business unrest throughout the coun-
try, Mr. Crisp believes, is attributed d.
rectly to the long delay upon the part
Of the senate in taking final action on
the tariff.
In the meantime the house of repre-
sentatives can take up no other work
and must meet and adjourn every three
days until the senate finishes the tarir
bill, which the house originated and
put through within a period of thirty
days.
Judge Crisp does not anticipate any
material changes in the house bill A.
the hands of the senate, and will be
glad when this most important demo
cratic measure is disposed of and be
comes law. The business interests
throughout the country, he says, are
held in protracted suspense. While IN
Americas, Mr. Crisp looked not only
after the political interests of his COLI
stituents, but after his farming inter
ests. Few know that Congressmar
Crisp is a farmer as we'll as a states
man, but such he is and on his farm
good crops of corn and cotton.

HARRY EDWARDS
REQUESTED TO
RESIGN OFFICE
is POSTMASTER OF MACON
May Refuse to Give Up Juicy
Plum

Macon, Ga, July 1.-THE resigna-
ton of Postmaster Harry Stilwell Ed
wards has been requested by the post
master general, but Mr.. Edwards has
not given it as yet. 1t is possible that
he will refuse to tender his resigna
ton, making it necessary for the de-
partment to summarily remove him,
provided he is removed.
This was done by the postmaster at
San Francisco last week, he, too, being
a republican appointee.
Mr. Edwards was asked this morn
ing concerning the action of the post
office department.
Il was advised of it several days
Iaeo," he said, and since then l have
been in consultation with friends At
present, l am not in a position to dis
cuss the matter, but rest assured that
! will be heard from
Senator Bacon has been advised b.
the postmaster general that Mr.. Ed
wards resignation has been requested
and he Immediately sent in the recon-
mendation that Mr. GUSTS Nottingham
be appointed. Mr.. Nottingham is Sen
ator Bacon's legal and business repre-
sentative in Macon.
Macon being the home town of Sen
ator Bacon, it is considered that he
has the right, according to general
custom in such matters, to name the
postmaster.
However, Representative Charles L.
Bartlett has rival candidate for the
office, and it is possible that he will
make a fight on Mr.. Nottingham 1t is
said that MIR. Bartlett's nominee is w.
T, Morgan.
