GOV. SLATON RECALLS
PONTIUS PLATE CASE
Sees Analogy in Modern Mob's cIamor
For Leo. M. Franks Life-His
Conscience ls Clear.

Atlanta, Ga.-Artillery, cavalry and
infantry of the state militia stood
guard Saturday night at the home of
John M. Slaton, who retired as COVER
nor Of the state during the day, sur
rendering the office to Nat e. Harris.
During the day 26 men were ar
rested by the militia near the Slaton
home and put in Jail. Firearms and
explosives, it is alleged, were taken
from them. At night, however, there
was no indication of renewed demon
STATIONS against the former governor
because of his action in committing
the sentence of Leo M. Frank.
At luncheon given Saturday in
honor Of the new governor, the retir-
ing governor referred to the Frank
case.
Honest people may disagree with
me, an honest man." he said, "but we
realize that we must be measured by
our consciences. Two thousand years
ago another governor washed his
hands Of case and turned over a Jew
to mob. For 1000 years that gov.
ernor's name has been accursed. II
today another Jew were lying in his
grave because l had failed to do my
duty, l would, all through life, find
his blood on my hands, and would
consider myself an assassin through
cowirdice."
During the inaugural ceremonies al
the capitol there were several tense
moments. When Governor Slaton ap
preached the new governor to deliver
the state seal few Kisses were heard
President Persons Of the state senate
warned the spectators that unless they
were in order the galleries would be
cleared. Instantly there was tn
multi Of applause.
Presenting the seal Governor SlatoI
said: Governor Harris, know that
during my term of office this great
seal of state has not been dishonored.'
His words were greeted by another
prolonged outburst of applause.
Leaving the capitol the crowd
surged in on the former governor and
had to be held back by the militia.

TREMENDOUS Loss
OF THIS GREAT WAR
GREAT BRITAIN AND ALLIES ARE
MINUS BATTLEsHIPs, 10 SUB
MARINES, IA CRUISERS.
GERMANY'S LOSS NOT so BAD
Total Warships Lost Over 100000 Ton
at a Cost Of $175,000, 00o-British
Gunfire Heaviest-German Tor
pedoes Do Most Damage.

Liverpool.-After 10 months of war
the losses suffered by the contending
navies present some interesting points
for speculation, says the Journal of
Commerce, affording a comparison of
the relative merits of the various Of
fensive weapons in the naval struggle,
and showing how costly it is to the
countries concerned to indulge in mi
nor encounters.
Summarizing the losses under types
of vessels Great Britain and her allies
have been deprived OF the services of
eight battleships, IA cruisers, four gun
boats, six destroyers, 10 submarines,
IA boats and six armed merchantmen
and auxilaries.
The losses of Germany and her al
lies consist of one battleship, % cruis-
ers, is gunboats, 10 torpedo craft, six
submarines and 20 armored merchant
men and auxiliaries.
Torpedo Destroys Most.
Separating the losses under the va
rious causes. neglecting auxiliaries
and armed merchantmen, the torpedo
has destroyed 1000 tons of allied
vessels, the mine $4,000 tons, gunfire
$1,000 tons, and $4,000 tons have been
lost in various ways.
The German, Austrian and Turkish
fleets have been deprived of $4,000
tons of war vessels by means of the
torpedo, $4,000 tons by the mine, 81
/ NV yVsv,fi rn nv1I
from various other causes.
These figures show that England
and her allies have lost 100000 tons
Of naval fighting material, costing
approximately $100.0O0,O0O, while the
Teuton and Turkish losses total 140,-
900 tons, worth about $6O,OOO,OOO.
| The figures also show that the mis-
cellaneous losses officially recorded
are approximately the same on both
sides, while from torpedo and mine
the British and their allies have lost
nearly double the tonnage that their
opponents have lost by the same
causes. BY torpedo the British losses
are 10 times more than those of the
other side, which shows clearly how
important part that weapon plays.
British Lead in Gunfire.
/ In gunfire England has established
a long lead chiefly because the Ger
! man ships at large when the war was
declared have been destroyed by this
means. In the armed merchantmen
and auxiliary class the net registered
tonnage of allied ships destroyed
amounts to 10000, while the German,
Austrian and Turkish losses stand at
approximately double that figure The
total financial loss in this instance
amounts to about SIS, 100000.
Thus 10 months of skirmishing and
definite result so far as the question
Of naval supremacy is concerned has
brought about the destruction of
about 100000 tons OF warships, costing
SIZE, 100000.

RUSSIANS FORCED
TO RETREAT AGAIN
GERMANS LAUNCH A NEW DRIVE
FROM NORTH TO OPEN THE
WAY TO WARSAW.
FIERCE CLASH WITH STEEL
First Attack Develops 6ayonet En-
counter With Result In Doubt
Long War Is Forecast-Western
Movement Must Wait.

London, June 27.-The Russians are
again retreating in Calicia, both to
the north and south of Lemberg, and
in Poland the Germans have launched
another attack against Warsaw in the
form of a drive from the north,
through Przasnysz
The new blow at the Polish capital
was preceded by terrific artillery
action. The fact is recorded by the
Russians themselves, but it is too
early to say whether it means a seri.
GUS offensive, the first clash having
developed a bayonet encounter, the
result Of which neither side records.
Teutons Claim Victories.
Berlin and Vienna do not make ref
erence to the conflict in this region,
combining their statements to the Ga.
lician situation, where victories are
claimed in various sectors from the
Bessarabian frontier to Rawa Ruska,
north of Lemberg.
What is more important the Ger
mans claim that the Teutonic forces
have crossed the Dniester northwest
of Halicz and have driven the Rus
SLAMS some miles into the hills.
Not since the war began has the
English public been so convinced that
1t will be a long one. Those who took
this view months ago were called pes
simists, but now it generally is ad
mitted that the Russian armies must
fight for months to overcome tremen
dous disadvantages and in the mean
time the much-heralded big general
movement on the western front must
be indefinitely postponed, while the
entente powers thoroughly reorganize
their methods.
Germans Cross Dniester River.
London, June 2S.-Berlin reports the
fall Of the Galician town of Halicz and
says the Austro-Germans have crossed
the Dniester river, which means thai
the five days desperate rearguard &C
ton by the Russians has ended In
their retirement. However, the stub
born resistance of this flank of the
forces of Grand Duke Nicholas, com
mander in chief Of the Russian army
has undoubtedly enabled him to re
form his lines along the River Bug
virtually without interference.
The river San now takes the place
Of the Dniester as the scene of q
sanguinary battle in the Russian eff
fort to prevent the investment of War
saw.
Petrograd admits the retirement oil
the Russians to the river Gnila Lipa
which is some 80 miles from the from
tier and falls into the Dniester al
Halicz, but military experts do not
expect heavy fighting along that river

NATIONAL SONG OF CHINA
Country Has Awakened to the Need
of Melody to inspire
Patriotism.

After the rejection of eight national
anthems composed in China since the
revolution, that of the Chinese minis
ter to Belgium, Wane Van Pao, which,
together with the song of the minister
of agriculture, commerce and trade,
Chang Tsein, belongs to the latest
compositions, is likely to be accepted
by the Chinese government. Following
is a translation of the FIRST three
stanZas.
China, the sublime mountains and
luxuriant plains attest thy greatness.
Country of wonders through thy hoary
civilization thy emperors have sacri-
feed themselves in ceding the rule to
the people.
THE people have the supreme pow.
er. So has taught Confucius and
Mengtse. And already in the hoary
times of Yao and Suen it had thus
been announced to the people. The
people is composed of five tribes. The
unity of the FIVE tribes is past dispute.
Then China is invincible.
Develop the wealth of the country,
improve agriculture. and make the
people happy. Education and culture
are the achievements OF centuries. All
citizens are equal; for Confucius and
Mengtse have taught social equality"

THE TARIFF PROBLEM
1t Promises to Be the Keynote Of
Next National Campaign.
Slmmon Norwood Lsw viii 30
Held spoEsiL'e fov Lack Of EN-
ploynent for Thousands Of
Wor<inemer.

Speaking for the Pacific Northwest,
the Spokane Spokesman-Reyiew in
Weighs against the new fiscal policy
of the United States for which the
existing federal administration is re-
sponsible. 1t sums up the situation
at the present moment as follows:
Passage of the simmons Unoerwood
tariff bill by the Democratic party
carried the United States a long way
toward the ultimate Democratic goal
of free trade. That fact stands out in
strong relief in a recent department OF
commerce review of the country's for
eign trade. Prior to the enactment OF
the new law import were almost
evenly divided between the dutiable
list and the free list. For example, Of
the total imports tin 1910. s755,S1l,-
1896 were free of duty, and 1901, $50, 0S4
were dutiable in 1911. $776,972,509 and
$3.50, $50 respectively. But In 1914.
first full calendar year under the new
tariff law, imports dut free totaled
sl,127, 500. 500. as against s6s1. SSS. 2sc
dutiable. In February. this year, duty
free imports were nearly twice as
much as dutiable imports-in round
numbers Ss0.000.000 and $45.o0O,O 900
respectively.
1t asserts that on this record the
presidential campaign of 1915 will be
vigorously contested between the free
traders and the advocates of proter-
ton, and that the issue will be espe-
cially keen in the states of the Pa
cific Northwest, where the free trade
theories of the Democracy are given
their most sweeping application" But
IL disgruntlement with Democratic
free trade notions is active now, 1t
will be much more active under eondi-
tons that are sure to arise after the
war. Then there will be sharper
struggle than ever by Europeans for
advantage in American markets, and
the difference between the high wages
current here and the low wages gen
orally current in Europe will tend
to put American manufacturers out of
business and throw American work
ingmen out of employment unless
there is a speedy restoration of the
protective principle in American tariff
laws.

Being and Doing.

AS the man is in the integrity of his
character, so is his strength. Being
is everything. 1t conditions happi-
ness; it determines and measures
service. A mans happiness depends
upon what he is in himself. A mans
service to others is conditioned upon
what he is in himself Being is basal
to doing. AS the speed OF the elec-
trio car is determined by the energy
stored in the power house, as the
power of the piston rod is determined
by the push Of accumulated steam,
so personal power is determined and
measured by character This is SUI
preme power. a character filled with
the divine presence and radiant with
a divine holiness.
