SOLDIERS PROTECT SLATON
Action Of Georgia Governor In Grant
ing Leo Frank clemency Arouses
Ire OF MODS.

Atlanta, Ga.-With several hundred
men and boys clamoring to get into
his front gates, which had been barri-
caded by barbed wire entanglements,
and threatening to overpower the 20
county policemen, armed with riot
guns, Gov. Slaton called upon the mi
litia late June 81 to protect his home.
Upon arrival of four companies of
state guardsmen, which had been held
under arms and rushed to the COVER
nor's country home in automobiles, he
proclaimed martial law in a district
extending half mile in front of his
home, half mile back and for dis
lance of about quarter of a mile on
either side.
When the soldiers lined up with
fixed bayonets to dispense the crowd
stones, brick and bottles we're thrown
at them. A brick struck Lieut.. Arnold
Parker In the stomach and rendered
unconscious for q short time. A bot
tie, thrown at Private w. w. Foope,
struck his gun and cut his hand. The
commanding officer, Maj Catron, was
struck by stone, as were several Of
the men.
The governor proclaimed martial
law at exactly IL o'clock. and by mid
night the crowd had practically been
dispersed. There was no firing.
A telephone message from Milledge-
Vile, where the state prison is locat-
ed, and where Leo NJ. Frank was taken
June Fl. after Gov. Slaton had com.
muted his death sentence to life i'm
prisonment, said that trouble was
feared there and asked that the gov
ernor order out the Milledgeville com.
pany OF militia. The goevrnor told his
informant that such request would
have to come from the sheriff of Bald
win county.
The governor was surrounded in his
home by about a dozen friends, nearly
every one OF whom was armed with
rifle or pistol. The unexpected ar
rival Of a member Of the family at a
dark corner of the front porch caused
the governor himself to hastily pick
up large pistol.
In front Of the governors house
were more than 100 automobiles

MUNICIPAL SCANDAL GROWS AS
RECORDS OF COMPTROLLER
ARE FOUND MISSING.
IS CHARGED WITH UsURY
Former Nashville saloonist Is Alleged
To Have Charged City Employees
Exorbitant interest Rates
On Loans.

ANA9AN AAAVs
Another chapter to the story OF mu.
nieipal scandal at the city hall was
added June p, when the theft of valu-
able records in the office of the city
comptroller was discovered.
Stub records to the cash book for
the month of September, 1914, and
sheets from the city treasurer's and
comptroller's debit ledger showing
how the city's money was received and
expended were torn from books in the
office some time during the day.
The authorities have evidence of
the theft in pieces of the stub records
which were found scattered on the
floor. The amount of money involved
by the disappearance of these records
will run, in the opinion of those who
are in touch with the situation, into
many thousand dollars.
Only one man in Nashville has the
combination to the safe in the office
of Comptroller Miles Burns. He is a
safe and lock expert, in whose hands
the matter of locking the safe was
placed following the initial discovery
of the missing books at the city hall a
week ago. Every morning this expert
comes to the office of the comptroller
and opens the safe for the office EN-
ployes. The safe is equipped with an
automatic lock.
The discovery was made by Eugene
B. Martin, assistant city comptroller

VALUE OF DAIRY COW
AS A PRODUCER

Nearly every farmer has one
COW having several daughters.
which he highly values and
which he refuses to sell. This
COW is Of good type and a
large producer just the kind Of
Z cow he wants. Her daughters
are all of the same color, SINH
larIy good type, and equally
good producers. These desirable
characteristics are regularly
transmitted to calf each year
These calves again may possess
this same power of transmission
to their offspring, and So on
from one generation to the
