At meeting OF the Utah commits
sion on arrangements for exhibits
at the San Francisco and San Diego
fairs In 1915, held in the office Of
GOV. william spry Saturday after
noon, plans were formulated for a
statewide campaign TO double the
funds at the disposal OF the commits
sion. Two committees we're ap-
pointed which will visit the several
counties OF the state to ascertain
what each county Is willing to do.
The state Legislature appropriated
$50. 900 and II Is believed that the
counties will furnish another $780,
900. Salt Lake county has practi-
cally agreed to appropriate SIT. 900.
All members OF the commission
were agreed that more money must
be used for the Utah exhibits than
was appropriated by the legislature.
within a few days a special commit.

Spry. George Austin. l.. A Merrill

the state.
The special committee which re-
Gently visited the cities where the
fairs are to be held presented its re-
port, but owing to the fact that the
commission does not know what
funds will be at its disposal II took
no action upon the report. Mem

The resignation OF George Austin
AS treasurer OF the commission was
accepted and Glen Miller was APP

MOVE BEATEN FOR
|. FREE WOOL GOODS
Clothing Duty Under New Tariff
Schedule Will Be From 20 to
35 Per Cent.

WASHINGTON. June 2s.-Ths
question of dutiable wool manufac-
lures in the tariff bill was raised in
the Senate Democratic caucus to-day
and brought a lengthy debate. Sena-
tor Chamberlain, of Oregon, favored
the free listing of these commodities,
arguing this was only fair to the
public and the manufacturers with
raw wool on the free list.
The goods affected are stockings,
socks and blankets, womens and chill
dren's dress goods, ready made cloth
ing and other articles of wearing ap-
parel. Ad valorem rates, ranging
from 20 per cent on stockings to 35 pei
cent on ready made clothing are in,
the bill as reported to the caucus.
At the recess Of the caucus Sena-
tor Simmons announced that the
proposition to free list wool manufac-
lures was beaten by a close vote.
I'VE expect to finish the hemp, silk,
paper and supdries schedules to-
night" said Senator Simmons, and

but his failure to be so sworn be not
subject to adverse comment by prose-
cutting counsel. This is I'm accordance
with current Federal and State law.
The legislation in Georgia against car
rying concealed weapons has in recent
years been conspicuous. II has been
suggested by the law Of self-preserva-
ton. Daily we read Of men who have

When searched, the dead man was found
generally unarmed.
II the carrying Of concealed weapons
were made a felony, subject to be re-
duced to misdemeanor by either Judge
or jury. the deterrent effect Of such a

plainly Indicate the proposition to the

My predecessor has called attention to
the fact that some OF the agricultural
schools are well attended. while others

Church Bars Wedding
And Girl Files Suit
Breach of Promise Action Started,
Though Both Parties Declare They
Are Ready for Ceremony.

ATCHISON, KANs., June 2s.-Al-
though both parties to a 5000
breach of marriage contract suit filed
here recently say they are willing to
wed, the suit will go on.
Miss Mary Falk, of Purcell, alleges
that she entered into a verbal con-
tract to marry william Burke, of
Troy. a few months ago.
Church officers say they will not
marry Burke because he is unable to
procure sworn statement from his
mother in Ireland certifying to the
time of his baptism in the Catholic
Church. Burke says he will marry
Miss Mary Falk any time, and, in her
petition for the suit Miss Falk says
she is still willing to marry Burke.
But as a priest will not marry
them, as both are unwilling to for
sake their religion. Miss Falk says
she can not consistently dismiss the
suit, although she still loves Burke.
Miss Falk's petition alleges that
Burke is wealthy.

Slaton is Inaugurated

their very simplicity, John Marshall
Slaton to-day became Governor OF the
State of Georgia, succeeding Joseph

administered by Judge William II.
Fish, Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court, at 1902 o'clock.
Governor Slaton was indicted into
office in the presence of a brilliant
assemblage Of Georgia men and wom-
en-, including his own and the retir-
ing Governors family and intimate
friends, members of the State Legis-
lature and prominent jurists. For the
first time In the history of the State

Judge William T. Newman and Judge
Don A. Pardee, of the Federal Court

mand that their redemption begin at an

Registration OF Voters.
We believe the present registra-
ton law should be 80 amended that
when a voter has once proven his
qualification by registering and
being enrolled, he shall remain
registered voter unless disqualified
for cause due to himself.
The foregoing extract from the last

presses a principle which deserves uni

change OF the constitution which pro-
vides for the qualification Of the voter.

provided that the voter must have paid
his taxes and not subjected himself to
any OF the disquallacatlons provided by

which terminates in 1919. No one, I ap-
prehend, would or should consider Its
sale. but the problem Of Its disposition
should be considered by a commission
with directions TO report its recon-
mendations and its reasons therefor.
To delay this matter VIII mean to

In part Governor slaton said:
our system is wrong. The Degisia-
ture can appropriate what i pleases'
and the tax rate remains the same.
The Legislator has made himself a Ia
vorite with his constituency BY voting
for every popular appropriations ana
nothing suffers but the states credit.
Unless some check be made, an in
crease of revenue will be Of no avail in
preventing the financial embarrassment
OF the state. Under the enthusiasm OF

Corporation Taxation.
Prior 10 the year 1905, many efforts
were made TO collect an occupation tax
from corporations. Governor Terrell. in
his message OF the year 1905. recon-
mended a tentative privilege tax based
on capital stock Of 100000 per year on
corporations having capital OF 81,
100000 or over. He anticipated from
this source more than 500. 900 a year.
and thought that such sum could res~
sonably be expected without a hardship.
The State, however, has not received
one-half this sum, and during the year
1918 the estimated revenue from this
source is S4S 900
recommend that the maximum occu-
patton tax on corporations having 81
900 600 capital and over be $500 per an
mum, and the tax on corporations OF less
capital be adjusted accordingly,
Equalization OF taxes, either through
the enforcement Of present laws. or new
oorrectives. so that each may bear his
proportionate burden, would not mean
the increase OF taxes upon any one now
performing his duty. but would rather
mean the Tightening OF his unfair por-
ton Of the load. ! commend this sub
feet TO your attention.
Bonded Debt To Be Refunded.
An additional reason for establishing
and maintaining the States finances on
q sound basis Is the necessity Of max
ing provision for more than one-haIf of
the entire bonded debt OF the State, ma
turing IN 1915. This is an imperative
duty resting on this Legislature.
No sinking fund was provided by law
TO retire the bonds aggregating S3.679, -
