Judge Urges Pardon
For Life Convict Who
Has Served "a Years

In the belief that he has suffered
enough for his crime, Judge Hill has
asked Governor Slaton to pardon James
jolly, a white convict, who has served
"a years of a life sentence at the Adams
vile camp, For nearly quarter of
century jolly has been a trusty ana
never has had mark against his, rec
ord. Y,
Judge Hill was Solicitor of the Supe-
rior Court in 1880, when jolly was con-
victed of numbering a girl. The man
was convicted largely upon his own tes-
timony. His victim, he said, leaped out
of a buggy when he made an improper
proposal to her and was killed by strik-
ing her head on a rock. He buried the
body and afterwards tried to convince
her relatives that she was alive in Ala
bRma.
The Prison Commission has acted ia
vorably upon Jolly's application for par
don.

The number of hunters is on the
increase in Georgia, according to State
Game Commissioner Charles L. Da-

licenses and 507 more county licenses
than in the same period last year.
The figures will increase consider

Dear Sir: 1t gives us great pleas
ure to say that the work that Miss
Jessie Lee Fulbright is doing for US
is very satisfactory. She takes die
tation readily, and we often give her
as many as twenty OF more letters
in the afternoon, which she tran
scribes, neatly and accurately, the
following day. The method of
shorthand which she uses must be
very thorough and efficient to ac-
compiish these results.
Wishing you much success, we are,
Very truly yours,

SENATE TO SCRUTINIZE
JONES PHILIPPINE BILL
Measure Passed by House, Providing
Ultimate Independence of Is
lands, Goes Over.

The Senate will give the Jones bill
providing for ultimate independence OF
the Philippines careful scrutiny before
it votes upon it. The bill has passed
the House, but will not come up in the
Senate until next session
The Senate committee on the Philip
pines will hold a number of meetings
and hearings on the measure next win
ter. 1t is expected that many witness
es now in the Philippines will be sum-
moned to appear before the committee.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, chair
man of the committee, said today:
Il am in favor of increasing the
measure of self-government accorded
the Filipinos from time to time to the
extent to which they will be able to
manage their own affairs. The state
ments in the preamble of the bill de-
claring that it is the purpose of the
United States to withdraw sovereignty
and recognize the independence of the
islands seem to be the most impor-
tant question. as they foreclose on the
future"

The entire issue of s250.o0o.oo0 fed

troller Of the Treasury. can, without
violation of law, and probably will, as
is contemplated by the bureau of en-
craving and printing, be printed on
power presses. As no hand-roller
presses will be displaced should the
entire work on the federal reserve
notes be done on power presses, the
act of August "a, 1912. is regarded as
not requiring that any parts Of the
backs of these notes shall be printed
on the hand presses.
This is the opinion of George E.
Downey, controller of the Treasury.

WARS EMBARGO ON IMPORTS.
Opportunity for U. S. to Develop
Pure Blood Draft Horses.

The European war has virtually
placed an embargo on the importation
into the United States of pure blooded
draft horses for breeding purposes, but
the standard of draft horses in Amer
lea will not suffer as a consequence in
the opinion of the Department of Agri
culture experts today. According to
the departments experts, there is
sufficiently large amount of pure blood
already in this country for all require
ments, and the American draft horse
will now have an opportunity to dem
onstrate it's own qualities.
For several years the United States
has imported from $500 to 1000 pure
blooded animals for breeding purposes,
but since the war began. with the ex-
ception of very limited number from
England. there have been practically no
importations.

Two Different Diseases.
Asiatic cholera and Asiatic plague
are different and distinct diseases, al
though both are scourges Of mankind
Plague, as used in the medical world
today, means just one thing-the dread
bubonic plague. the most dangerous
pestiience of all time. Plague is re-
sponsible for the devastation of Lon
don back in the sixteenth century, as
was the ''black plague" that ravaged
Italy in the time of Boccacio. Asiatic
cholera has spread affection in its wake
many times. and Vienna has suffered
from the scourge. But it is not so ter
rible a menace as bubonic plague. and
is now, through measures to control
it. less dangerous than ever.
Watchfulness is the only precautlon
so far instituted at American ports.
Vessels from Italy and Asia are under
scrutiny. So far there has been no oc-
casion for suspicion.

Detained at New York.

The immigrant ship arrives in New
York If there has been any case of
cholera developed or any suspicious
death during the voyage, the entire
storage is isolated at the detention
station on Hoffman island. This de-
tention, unless there is evidence of in
lection discovered, lasts only ten or
fifteen hours. That is long enough,
the quarantine authorities now know,
to determine freedom from or presence
of infection. Before, such observation
used to last for weeks.
There is no known cure for Asiatic
cholera. The mortality is high. There
is no sure specific, and no better
method of treatment to effect cure has
been discovered. The same time-old
measures are quiet, plenty of water
and doses of opium.
But more is now known about Asiatic
cholera than was ever known. 1t is
known that the infection is taken only
through the mouth, by means of drink
or food, or unclean hands put to the
lips. 1t is known that the germ of
-asiatic cholera does not live long out
of the human body, although it can
maintain life for a short while in wa
ter Human cases and infection from
one human to another keep the dis
ease alive. If there were no cases for
:, week Asiatic cholera would die off
the face of the earth.
There are such things as carriers
of Asiatic cholera, as there are human
carriers" of typhoid. who are not in
valided by the germ of disease and can
convey it to others. While there is a
case on record of carrier" being in
fected over seventy-two days, the usual
course of Asiatic cholera is ten days.
Victim and Carrier usually eXpel the
disease germs by that time, even in
death.

Never oh Mainland.

Let the cholera-infected immigrant
come to our shores, He will at once be
placed in detention camp. Whether or
not the immigrant has cholera cannot
long be concealed from the prying
medical intelligence of the quarantine
officials. If the presence of cholera is
determined the infected alien win
never be allowed on the mainland to
spread the infection.
Italy has most perfect system of in
spection for immigrants. All immi-
grants are assembled days before the
sailing The great bulk of them so to
detention barracks. where the observ-
alton is most thorough to prevent their
deportation by the United States as
undesirable citizens. There are also
approved boarding houses where those
who can pay the price can get better
accoTT odations, but still be subjected
to all the same observation against
disease. Five days under observation
determines the fitness or unf1tness of
the wouid-be American citizens. This
period over, the accepted are marched
aboard ship to remain isolated from
danger of infection until the ship
sails

Develops on Oceans.

AS it takes several days TO cross the
water, any immigrant infected with
Asiatic cholera is almost sure to de-
velop symptoms before arrival at an
American port. In this almost absolute
certainty that the disease will discover
itself before getting past quarantine
lies the confidence OF quarantine au-
thorities that they can prevent spread
of Asiatic cholera on American soil.
Lack of facilities to care for wounded
soldiers of Russia and Austria is re-
garded as responsible for the present
outbreak of Asiatic cholera. All the
available medical force of each nation
is with the army. The duty of surgeons
and physicians with the army is to pre-
vent disease in camp and maintain the
soldier in health as an efficient lighting
unit. Should his wounds incapacitate
him and render him unfit for service, in
the very terrible nature of war, he is
in the discard. except where humani-
tartan activities, such as the Red
Cross, always pitifully Inadequate to
meet all demands upon their services,
come to the aid of the stricken.
Austria has undertaken to vaccinate
her soldiers against Asiatic cholera.

Keep Immigrants Out.

There is remote possibility that
Austrians, evading call to the colors,
may try to make their way into Italy,
and take passage to America from some
Italian port. But Italian supervision
of outgoing travellers by sea is most
thorough and efficient, and the knowl-
edge of how to deal with ASiatic chol-
err. is shared with the Italian surgeons
of the immigration service, who are
competent to keep from sailing to
America all would-be immigrants
whose condition excites suspicion. Fur
ther. Austrian refugees are not well
come in Italy, and the bar has been put
up against them.
ton was through Germany. The port
of crlbarkation, Hamburg, is not only
closed to this outgoing travel, but,
while Great Britains navy guards the
door of the Baltic, is no more than a
city on an inland sea shut off from all
the outer world.
AN Austrian might get through Italy,
a Russian come by way of Scandi-
navia, to the Tilted States. But what
ever of them might do SO probably
would be of the healthy sort; and, if
giving suspicion of Asiatic cholera,
would have to pass most rigorous
inspection thoroughly satisfying of
their freedom from infection.
But let them come by one or by hun
dreds, and each carrying the dread in
fection-the public health service is
ready to meet and cope with the enc
my. There is no fear. And, at the
port of New York. the great immigra-
ton port Of America. there is also the
state and city quarantine service,
trained in the same school of wisdom,
and ready to, cooperate or take the
initiative in competent measures.

Relief of South a Private Matter.

Representative Payne, attacking the
cotton proposal, declared that 'if every
part of the country in distress as
result of the war is to be helped from
the federal Treasury no $3.50, 900 will
suffice" The relief of the south, he as
serted. was private matter and should
be left to private resources. Banks, he
said, already had started a scheme to
raise s150,000,O00 for the relief of the
south.
Representative Mann favored the
Lever bill, and the Glass bill. but as
serted that the proposed s25o,Oo0, 900
should not pass. He declared that the
human mind should be able to find
some remedy for the danger and pro-
tect the south"
The plan was supported vigorously
by Representative Hardwick of Geor-
gia, who asserted that Congress was
trying to do for the south what the
Treasury Department often had done
for other parts of the country. He as
serted that the Secretary of the Treas
ury. under this and previous admins
trations. frequently had deposited gov
eminent funds in banks in various sec
tions to meet pressing contingencies.

and other steadfast republicans stood
up to be counted among the ayes on
the vote for the rule to make privi-

The cotton relief legislation is the
Keynote to adjournment, along with
the tangle on the war tax bill. South
ern democrats who have been clamor-

ury to lend money to the southern cot
ton growers whose markets have been
cut in two by the European war have
been insistent that there should be no
adjournment until Congress had voted
on some phase of the matter.

After half dozen attempts to get
one of these bills up in the House, the
rules committee yesterday contrived a
piece of strategy which win enable

There was a time when ASiatic chol-
era in Europe meant a scare in every
American port where immigrants land
ed: when Asiatic cholera abroad was
sure to mean an invasion OF America,
and when the scare meant that every
traveller from abroad was subjected TO
long time observation by quarantine
officials of American ports as meas
ure of protection to prevent the mice
ton from spreading through the land.
But that is all changed now. An
Asiatic cholera scare of three years ago
resulted in experience to meet any fu-
ture condition.
Aside from this. Asiatic cholera is
not likely to find its way to any Amer
lean port. Immigration direct from
both Russia and Austria has ceased.
In fact, there is little immigration from
anywhere. with the influx of foreigners
