CITIZENS HOLD
OFFICERS OFF
OGDEN PERSONS BACKS UP AAR.
RIs PRIVATE HOMES CAN
NOT EE RAIDED.

Atlanta, April Ayes, I've got
liquor in my home-what are you 60
ing to do about it?"
That is about the attitude the citi-
zen can assume with impunity toward
the state so far as the bone dry pro-
hibition law is concerned, now that
Governor Harris and President Per.
sons Of the senate. joint authors OF
the law, have made it plain that the
lcW contains no provision authorizing
a search of private premises for
liquor
Recently the sheriff of Bibb county
inquired Of Governor Harris whether
2 search could be made of a house
with or without a search warrant
The governor informed him that
house can be searched only with q
search warrant, and that a search
warrant can only be issued for the
recovery of stolen property.
Now the governors opinion is con
III ilCu ny L ISoiueul IcTSUlS, Ol IuS
sente, who cites the same points
and cites the further fact that the
bone dry prohibition law specifically
destroys all property right in prohib
tied liquors, so that even if liquor
should be stolen it would not be pos
sible to swear out search warrant
against the thief, for the reason that
liquor is not property and therefore
cannot be stolen.
And this brings up the further very
interesting legal proposition that
while man having liquor in his
possession is violator of, the law,
he can steal all the liquor he can get
his hands on without being subject
to prosecution, since liquor is no.
property and the owner has no rights
under the law.

BIG YACHT WITH
GERMANS TAKEN
GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL TAKES
CHARGE OF BOAT AND BE-
GINS INVESTIGATION.

The United States marshal at Fern
andina is holding a high powered
yacht at that harbor on instructions
from the government. The arrest and
detention of it's German crew resulted
after the boat had purchased gasoline
for the second time in large quanti-
ties without having any reasonable
motive. The first time she purchased
a great quantity of gasoline it was ex-
planned the vessel was going on n
long voyage. The purchase was made
at Miami She left port and returned
in a few days with her cargo OF gaso-
line gone. She then ordered some
thing like thirty thousand gallons
more. Nothing was said, but the gov
ernment agent notified authorities.
The yacht was trailed by another boat
to Fernandina. where officers found
her papers also were very irregular
In fact, she did not have the regular
forms at all, only receipt showing
the boat was purchased in New York
three weeks ago.
The report reached Brunswick last
night by word Of mouth from manv
parties coming from Fernandina and
ST Marys.

es the house.
Opposition Of six senators to the
war resolution brought sharp retorts,
voiced in the course of speeches that
bristled with patriotic fervor and eX-
pressed grim determination of the
overwhelming majority that passed
the resolution recognizing the state Of
war
Peace advocates invoked bitter re-
elimination after Senator LaFo1lette
made a bitter attack on the resolu-
ton, which was answered by Senator
Williams, of Mississippi
Senator Norris, of Nebraska, assert
ed, 1--WE are about to put the dollar
mark on the American flag" Sen
ator Williams shouted, ''This remark
grazes close to treason" Norris then
denied he meant to cast any reflec-
ton on the presidents motives.
Ollie James, of Kentucky, exclaim-
ed: "The senator says his statement
about the dollar mark being put on
the American flag is no reflection on
the president What would he say if
/ said he and his little band of friends
were trying to put a picture of the
Kaiser on the American flag?"
The senators voting against the
resolution were Gronna, LaFollette,
Lane, Norris, Stone and Vardamann.
Announcement of the result was re-
ceived joyously by the crowded gal
leries
Senator Williams took up the
charge made by the Wisconsin radi-
cal, LaFollette, that England is at
F., tempting to starve Germany by block
ide, saying:
( when the north was fighting the
: south, you of the north would not let
food or medicine reach lis of the
south. You thought war had to be
concluded and that such was the man
ner for doing it. We played no baby
act. Great Britain has murdered none
of our women and children. She cap
tured ships, took them to prize courts
and paid for cargoes at market
prices"
Continuing, Senator Williams said:
"Of course, he did not expect to get
my sympathy by telling of thousands
of Germans who helped to crush the
south in the civil war. There were
thousands OF them, merely hirelings
paid s13 month and given bounty.

SAYS DUTY OF N. j.
IS TO HELP FARMERS
A. ]. Meyer Believes 1t Is Pa
triotic Duty to Help
Raise Big Crops.
FEW CRITICISE MOVE
College of Agriculture Rep
resentativeS to Be Sent
to County Meetings.

II To help the farmers help themselve
is the responsibility of the Univer
sity. according to A. ]. Meyer, directo
OF the agricultural extension service
in his talk this morning to extension
workers. "Such organization is pre-
paredness, for it is intended to solv,
the problems of increased production
labor and the market proposition, saic
Mr.. Meyer. All farmers do not SEE
the personal value of this movement
The work of the University men who
are to be sent out into the counties is
to impress farmers with the value OF
the movement and help them perfect
their organizations"
National and State Councils of De-
fense have already been formed and
now it remains to form county and
town councils. All commercial inter-
ests are represented in these coun-
ellis, but it is intended that the farmer
shall have majority representation.
| MANY farmers in the state are crit
icising the movement. They say that
it costs more to train experienced men
than they can possibly add to produc-
tion. However, the farmers must
have help and the only place it can be
secured is from the towns. There are
many farm boys holding positions in
towns who will be glad to go back to
the farm if the selectivs conscription
measure is passed.
The farmer feels that bumper
crop will further the exploitation of
the food spectators. The Govern
ment is able to take swift measures
to do away with food speculation. A
public conscience against such things
will also do much to prevent exploit
tation. If the farmer joins with the
other commercial interests in fighting
it, he is more sure to have matters
solved his own way.
All the school districts in the state
were asked to hold meetings last Tues
day night to elect a committeeman to
the county committee and to get ev-
cry farmer interested in the idea of
organization. Next Tuesday and
Wednesday representatives from the
University will go into each county
to meet this committee at the county
seat. each man taking two counties.
The organization will be perfected and
a series of meetings arranged for
groups of school districts as soon as
possible. At each of the meetings in
this series, a representative will be
elected to the County Farm Bureau
Board. This board will do the actual
work of getting each farmer in the
district to agree to do.as much work
as he always does plus something ex-
ira to help in production this year.
"The farmers need only expect to
break even on this extra work, but /
patriotism demands that they do /,
much" says Mr.. Meyer.
