Favors Indeterminate Sentence.

Atlanta. Ga.-One feature of Gov
ernor John NJ. SlatOn's message to
the assembly is causing a great deal
Of discussion, especially since the
governor has shown he is greatly in
terested in the subject This is the
matter of indeterminate sentences
for convicts.
The governor believes the indeter-
inmate sentence would work a gruat
deal Of good. "Why 'oes q judge
under his discretion sentence a man
for seven years for a crime and per-
haps the next day :tntcrce another
to nine years for the same offense'
the law giving him the latitude OF
from one to twenty years? 1t might
be because he was feeling little bet
ter one day than the next. 1t might
be because of any one of a hundred
trivial things-the judge himself
couldn't say why.
Suppose the prisoner were SEN
fenced instead for a maximum OF
seven years and minimum of three
wears. Immediately he entered the
prison that mans plan of salvation

win Harris Is Some Candidate.

Atlanta, Ga.-That William j.
Harris is proving some campaigner
in his race for the governorship is
shown by the increasing popularity
he is gaining in South Georgia,
through which he recently made an
extensive tour.
One of the South Georgia members
of the legislature said today: I've
just been down home for a day or
two, and I've found that this fellow
Bill Harris has been waking them up
down there. He seems to have COW
cred every county, shaken hands
with every man and kissed every

take her back. This he refused to
do. and one night, after all custom
ers had left the Callahan store, John
Deaton went over to see Callahan on
behalf of his sister. Callahan again
refused to receive the woman, and
Deaton attacked him with a butcher
knife
Callahan right arm was almost
cut off and he was being hacked to
death when his 18-year-old boy, Will
son Callahan, ran into the room. lie
grasped a shotgun and blew his I'm
Gle John Deaton's brains out. He
was never indicted fol this.
After that the feud broke out in
earnest, but the warning factions IL
nally signed a peace agreement,
which was kept for about year,
but was broken one morning when
Callahan stepped out of his front
door at the store to sweep off the
steps. Two rifles called to him from
the spot high up in the mountain
and he was badly wounded.
Daughter Goes On Trail.
After this shooting matters re-
NAMED tranquil for time. 1t was
generally suspected who had shot
Callahan, but no real evidence had
been found. However, the two men
suspected were afterward shot dead
in a mysterious manner.
After the final shooting and her
fathers death Mrs. Gross received
warnings that she was being watch
ed. and that unless she were very
careful she would receive the same
treatment as that given her father.
So she began to travel at night. For
six days and nights she scarcely left
the saddle, save to rest when she
thought she might perhaps be fol-
lowed. But she was getting the in
formation she wanted.
Finally she appeared before the
Breathitt couny grand jury with evil
dence upon which sixteen men were
indicted for the assassination OF Cal
lahan. The evidence shown then and
substantiated by the con-
fession of Doc Smith, Andrew john
son and Robert DeatOn, showed that
plots we're laid for the Callahan as
sassination at the home of Fletcher
Deaton in Jackson.
It was shown that the three muir
derers selected practiced for several
days at target, that "Red Tom"
Davidson was deputized to have his
mule on hand so the three men could
ride away. They did ride away, but
Davidson swears that it was not his
mule. and he is now trying to prove
an alibi for the animal.

A Row Stirs Bankers.

Atlanta, GA lively row is stir
ring up the bankers of the Atlanta
regional bank district over the cleo
ton of directors. The excitement
grows out of an attack made on Geo.
H. Malone of Dothan, Ala, who was
elected to the directorate, by McLane
Tilton, Jr., of Pel1 City, Ala, who
was a candidate for the place.
In response to a circular letter
sent out by Mr.. Tilton announcing
he would not accept defeat for di-
rector Mr.. Malone has sent out let
ter to members of the regional re-
serve district branding Tilton's state
ment as unwarranted and absolutely
untrue. He says of Tilton's actions
at the Montgomery meeting of the
bankers:
clifton would take. no interest in
the election of a director for the
country banks, for which l inaugu-
rated a fight, except for himself. He
said he was in the race for himself
and would not go to the meeting I'M
less he were sure of winning. When
the fight for the election of a country
banker was won l quit and took no
further part except to vote for Tilton.
If Mr.. Tilton had stayed at home he
might have been nominated, but
when it was seen that apparently his
sole motive was to secure the nomi-
nation for himself the delegates re-
belled and would not vote for him. !"

To Protect Sea Island Cotton Grove


Atlanta, GA bill now before
congress to protect the sea island
cotton producers of Georgia from
fraud is of especial interest to South
erners. 1t was drawn and introduced
by Congressman ]. Randall Walker
of the Eleventh district, and its pur-
pose is to prohibit manufacturers OF
cotton fabrics from using inferior
cotton and labelling the finished prod
uct as sea island.
In speaking of the bill to a friend
Mr.. Walker said: 81 have the hearty
cooperation of the agricultural de-
partment and believe the bill GER
tainly will become a law. If so 1T
will result in saving untold millions
to the producers of sea island cotton
and purchasers of cotton goods. My
district, as you know, produces more
sea island cotton than any other
equal territory in the world, and Val
dosta, my home town, is the largest
sea island cotton market in the whole
world. This legislation vitality affects
the interest of my people"

MISS WILSON TO
HAVE OUTDOOR
WEDDING
THE PRESIDENT PROPOSES NOV.
FL NUPTIALs FOR HIS
DAUGHTER


Washington, March 2S. The we'd
ding OF Miss Eleanor Wilson. youngest
daughter OF President and Mrs. Wilson,
and secretary Of Tie Treasury VIII
ham Gibbs McAdoo will be the four
.taenth to take place in the White
House. The TACT Of their engagement
is said to have leaked out at William,
town, the home Of the sayres. The
same rumor insists that the announce
.ment Of the engagement Of Miss Mar
garet Wilson and Boyd Eisher Of New
York and Princeton will be made
soon; that it had been planned to
make both engagements at the same.
time. Runner also has it that the
plans were for a double wedding In
the spring.
When Miss Jessie Wilson and Fran.
els Bowes sayre were married last
November an oval, flower-deczed table
with the brides cake as the center
decoration, was set in the small break
fast room off the state dining room at
the White House. In this room, re-
served exclusively for tho bridal par
.ty and few intimate friends, one Of
the gayest Of the guests was Mr. Nc
Adoo. The wedding cake was cut ane
Miss Eleanor Wilson got the ring.
Later. when the bride threw her hon.
quet Miss Margaret Wilson caught it.
Immediately after the reception secre-
tayy McAdoo made his way into the
East room and was the first of those
to dance. After the dance he sat at
the foot of the altar. It was remark
ed then that he was fated to become
a bridegroom.
It is the opinion Of several of the.
cabinet hostesses that this wedding
will be the largest ever held in the
White House. That It VIII either be
at Easter or early in June has been
fully decided upon by the general pub
lie. 1t is. said that the president has
favored an outdoor wedding with a
large al fresco reception. In that
event it would be possible for practic-
ally all Of Washington society to at
tend the reception.
Another rurnor is that the wedding
will be quiet affair at the summer
White House at Cornish, N. H.
It is quite certain that Mrs. sayre
will be her sisters matron of honor
and that Miss Margaret Wilson and
Miss Mona McAdoo win be the brides
maids. 1t has been suggested that
Mrs. Charles Martin of Arizona, Mr.
McAdoo's eldest daughter, will be one
of the matrons of honor. There is
little doubt that Miss Ruth Hall Of
Princeton, who has spent the winter
in washington and who is Miss Flea
nor Wilson's chum, will be one Of
the attendants and that Miss Marjorie
Brown Of Atlanta a cousin Of Miss
Wilson, who was a bridesmaid for
Mrs. Sayre, also will be an attendant.
Wherever Miss Wilson and Mr.. Nc
Adoo have appeared together since
the announcement of the wedding they
have been the cynosure Of all eyes
and they have been kept busy dodg-
ing moving picture cameras. On Sun
day. when Miss Wilson attended serv.
ices at the Central Presbyterian
church with her father and her sister,
Margaret, the audience paid more at
tention to her than to the sermon.
