many years.

Augusta, Ca, Nov 19.-Because
Judge Emery Speer has filed a certif-
icate of disqualification in the case
of the United States vs. Thomas d.
Watson, the famous case is again
postponed until another judge is des-
ignated to sit in the United States
district court here. Watson, who is
an editor and author, and was the
nominee of the peoples party for the
presidency in 1904, was to be tried
this week on an Indictment rendered
by the federal grand jury two years
ago today, charging him with sending
obscene matter through the mails
Watson claims that il he were guilty
Of the charge it would be violation
of the federal laws to send a Bible
through the mails The articles which
brought about the indictment were
published in his magazine. They de
nounced the Roman Catholic church
and after their publication Watson
defied arrest, on the claim that th'
articles are as proper matter for th'
mails as is the Bible

Scattered cases of scarlet fever and
smallpox have already made their ap-

effort has been made to prevent the

the war zone. Passengers arriving on
the Flushing, iDeppe, Boalogne and

Folksetone is now practically the

Zimmerman, in charge Of the internal
revenue stamp office at the federal
building, today called attention to the
fact that county clerks throughout
the state must get war tax stamps
for conveyance papers recorded in
their office. The stamps are required
under Schedule A entitled Convey

ments, or other realty sold shall be

800 and does not exceed $500, so cents
and for each additional $500 or frac-
tional part thereof in excess Of $780,
So cents. provided, that nothing CON
tanned in this paragraph shall be so
construed as to impose tax upon any
instrument Of writing given to secure
debt"
Mr.. Zimmerman also called atten-
tion to the tax on moving picture thea
ters which he said must be paid before
December 1. There is tax on pass
age tickets to foreign ports and it is
pretty steep one, ranging from 81
to SIS.
Every seat sold in a palace or par

ing car takes away one cent from the
company selling it. The power of an
