TO LOOK OUT FOR INTERESTS
OF GEORGIA.

For the purpose of seeing that the
state revenue derived from estates I'M
der the inheritance tax act of 1913 is
fully and promptly collected, Cover
nor Nat f. Harris yesterday clothed
Judge John c. Hart, state tax com
missioner, with power to cooperate
with county authOrites in collecting
these taxes. Judge Hart has signified
his willingness to accept the new hon

governor.
The entire matter viii! be placed be-
fore the next regular :ession of the
general assembly and that body will
be asked to appropriate reasonable
compensation for Judge Harris serv-

This act of Governor Harris is Vir-

says the governor, has now no Off

the counties in the cole ion of such
taxes.
1t is regarded by the governor that

the reason that there are now several
large estates being settled up.

ARMY GATHERS ON COAST.
Mexicans Reported Receiving None,
and Transportation at Ell Paso.

FL Paso, Tex, June 30.-ln spite OF
the detention of Gen. Huerta under
federal bond, events point to the con-
tinued activity among supporters of
the new revolutionary movement
across the Rio Grande.
Well-informed persons declared that
revolutionary agents were active, and
estimated that an average of 100 men
were crossing the Rio Grande nightly.
These persons do not believe the
Huerta incident will retard revolution
airy efforts, and some predicted that
important Developments would occur
in Juarez soon. Presumably the men
crossing the border are to be mobi-
lized at some secluded point in north
ern Mexico.
A report received from Adolfo Ca
rillO, Carranza representative at Los
Angeles, said that several hundred
Mexcans told that they were to serve
under Huerta, and left Los Angeles,
San Bernardino and Cotton, Cal, for
El Paso. Each recruit, he said, re
ceived transportation and $40. Ca,
rillo asserted that southern California
had been canvassed for recruits.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
London, June 3O.-The announce
ment that Italy had determined to
join the allied forces in redoubled
attack on the Dardanelles is regard
ed here as marking another plan of
campaign due to the Russians defeat
in Galicia. The capture OF Constan-
tinople and the smashing of the
Turks power is now believed to be
the next effort Of the allies.
Dispatches received from Rome
stated that Italy has broken diplo-
matte relations with Turkey and an
early declaration Of war between the
two countries is expected. Italian pa
perS are jubilant over the announce
ment that a fleet under the Duke of
the Abruzzi will be sent to the Oar
danelles to join in the attack.
The arrival of Italian ships at the
gateway to COnstantinople will re-
lease several British war ships and it
is regarded as certain here that Eng
land has mapped a plan of renewed
naval ACTIVITY.
While it is felt that the Russians
will not be able to assume the Offens-
i've for months, it is expected the
Cars forces will keep the Austro-
Germans occupied on the East while
the allies are dispOsing of Turkey.
Berlin reports the fall of the Cali.
clan town of Halicz and says that the
AustrO Germans have crossed the
Dniester river, which means that the
five days desperate rear guard action
by the Russians has ended in their re.
tirement. However, the stubborn re
sistance of this flank of the forces OF
the Grand Duke Nicholas, commander
in-chief of the Russian armies, has un
doubtedly enabled him to reform his
lines along the river Bug, virtually
without interference.
The river San now takes the place
of the Dneister as the scene Of a san.
culinary battle in the Russian effort
to prevent the investment of Warsaw.
Petrograd admits the retirement of the
Russians to the river Gnila Lipa
which is some eighty miles from the
frontier and falls into the Dniester at
Halicz, but military experts do not eX
pect heavy fighting along that river.

DEFENSE FOR PATTISON
MURDERER AND SUICIDE BURIED
AT FORT COLLINS.
Coroner. Pastor and Grave Diggers
Only Persons Present at
SIayer's Last Rites.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News SER ice
Fort Collins.-The Rev. W E. Ma
son, Coroner W. T. Hollowell and the
grave diggers of the Grandview ceme-
terry were the only persons who at
tended the burial of Clayton PattisOn,
two times murderer, and suicide.
Coroner Hollowell, having had the
body of Pattison left on his hands by
the daughters. who took the body of
their mother TO Denver with them, ar
ranged for the burial of the suicide in
the potters field He was adverse to
having the remains inferred without
any services and obtained the sery-
ices of the Baptist preacher. The
services were brief, only a simple
prayer being offered for the repose of
the dead mans soul.
With the burial of PattisOn, who
murdered Robert E. Showalter and
Mrs. PattisOn and then took his own
life, persons who knew him have
come forward in his defense since his
daughters have publicly denounced
the father as having failed to support
his family or contribute toward them.
An officer Of the Farmers Irriga-
tiOn Company at Loveland, where
Pattison worked for years, made the
following statement;
"Clayton Pattison worked for our
company for a number Of years. l
knew him well and never saw the
slightest thing in the mans demeanOr
which indicated that he was not all
right No act Of his ever caused me
to consider him such a man as he has
been painted by his daughters who
came after the mothers body and left
the remains of the father behind for
burial in the potter's field.
Their act seemed to be rather un-
that he was their father and that he
is dead and cannot answer for him
self.
The daughters charge that the man
did not work and that he failed to do
anything toward supporting the family
and even compelling the mother to go
out and eXtort money from others. In
the years that PattisOn worked for us
i know that he sent money to his wife
regularly.
Not only that, but personally
have mailed many of his checks to
his wife When he had charge of one
of our reservoirs, he left Mrs. Patti
sons address with me, and month
after month mailed his entire check
to her. She received the money, in
dorsing the checks which were not
slow in coming back to US.
"I make this statement in defense
of the man who is dead and cannot
answer the attacks made upon him.

as proof of her right to share in the

purpOrts to be an agreement between
