Whereas, great nations Of the
world have taken up rams against
one another and war now draws mil
lions Of men in to battle whom the
counsel Of statesmen have not been
able to save from the terrible sacri-
fee; and,
Whereas, in this, as in all things,
it is our privilege and duty to seek
counsel and succor Of Almighty God,
hmbling orselves before Him, con-
Tossing our weakness, and our lack
of any wisdom equal to these things;
and,
"Whcrcas it is the especial wish
and longing of the people Of the
United States, in prayer and counsel
and all friendlincss, to serve the
cause Of peace, therefore,
a, Woodrow Wilson, President of
the United States of America, do
designate Sunday, the fourth day Cf
October next, day of prayer and
supplcaton, and do request al God
fearing persons to repair on that day,
to their places of worship there to
unite their petitions to Almighty God
that, ovcrruIing the counsel Of men,
setting straight the things they can
not bovcrn or alter, taking pity on
the nations now in the throes Of con
flct. in His mercy and goodness show
ing a way where men can see none,
peace again and restore once more
that concord among men and nations
without which there can be neither
any wholesome fruit of toll or
thought in the world; praying also
to this end that He forgive us our
sins, our ignorance of His holy will
our willfulness and many errors, and
lead us in the paths Of obedience to
places of vision and to thoughts and
rounsels that purge and make wise.
an witness whereof l have here.
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be az.
fixed.

as the Santa Fe trail, Blue Book
routes, Cannon Ball route, Triple Star
trail, Bufum route, White Way and
numerous other well known and heav-
lily travelled routes.
Roads leading to Sedalia from
various points are as follows: From

way by way of Independence, Lees
Summit, Pleasant Hill and Warrens-
burg. From Moberly by way Of
IIigbee, Fayette, New Franklin,

JUDGE SPEER USER
OF DRUGS, DECLARES
MACON DRUGGIST
Trend of Investigation Shifts Again.
Judges Love of Newspaper NotO-
riety Touched Upon

Macon, Ga, January 20-The trend
of the investigation here of charges of
official misconduct against Judge EN-
ory Speer of the United States court
for the southern district of Georgia, by
subcommittee of the judiciary COM
mittee of the House of Representatives,
shifted again this afternoon. The COM
mittee examined two witnesses regard
Ing the alleged use of drugs by Judge
Speer.
l.. f. Pellew, a local druggist, testi-
fed that about 10 years ago pre-
scription was filled by him for Judge
Speer. He said the jurist called it his
HAY fever solution" The prescription
was one or two ounce, 3 per cent so
luton of cocaine once or twice a year
for the past decade, he said, he had
refilled the original prescription. For
the past year he had not filled the pre-
scription at all, he testified.
DIR. w. J. Little. a Macon physician,
who said that for the past three or four
years he had been in occasional attend
ance on Judge Speer, testified that he
had on one, or possibly two, occasions
given Judge Speer a hypodermic in
lection of morphine.
Another new line of inquiry touched
on during the days proceedings was
Judge Speer's alleged love of news
paper notoriety.
" T. j. simmons, managing editor of
the Macon News testified that Judge
Speer had frequently sent him articles
for publication. One of these articles
he stated, concerned bankruptcy case
pending before Judge Speer.

necessary to require the county treasurer
to increase his bond to $4,000. which is
an increase of $4,000, on account of the
large amounts of surplus accommodating
In the county treasury.
question 8. Was it necessary for Mr..
Mooring, the state back tax commits
sloner, to raise the assessments of 1872
Tor the purpose of meeting the current
expenses and public improvements of this
county?
Answer 5. No, 1t was not necessary fer
Mr. Mooring to raise the value of prop
erty to meet the financial obligations of
this county.
Question G. Does the state back tax
commissioner have the power tc set
aside the valuations of property fixed by
your board of equalization?
Answer 6. Yes. the state back tax COM
missioner has the power to set aside and
utterly disregard the value we NAV fix
upon any property in this county.
Question I. What recourse has the tax
payers from the arbitrary decision OF
the state back tax commissioner?
Answer 7. The taxpayer has the right
to appeal from the decision of the state
back tax commission board by first Civ
ing bond in double the amount ~ estI-
mated cost of the appeal case. This, of
course, necessarily causes many not to
appeal to a higher court.
Question s. Does the state back tax
commission law open the way for legal
lied graft by enlarging fees or accumu-
lating a large surplus in the county
treasury?
Answer s. We do not think an answer
to this question comes within the scope
of our official duty, but will say that VIC
only favor such fees and commissions
as are commensurate with the labor re-
CURED to perform such public service rs
the law demands of an official.
Question g. What amount of commits
sions does the assistant state back tax
commissioner, receive and how much
has his commissions been Increased dur
ing the year 1913?
In our opinion this la wshould he re-
pealed?
Answer g. The assistant state back
tax commissioner for Tuscaloosa county
receives 10 per cent commissions IN all
net raises of the state and county taxes
His commissions have been increased
about $4,000 this year by the raises b1.. .ught
about by Mr.. Mooring, the state back
tax commissioner
In our opinion thi slaw should lie re-
realed by the Alabama legislature.
