By COUNTY OFFICERS
FAILS IN COMMITTEE

Senator M. c. Pachecos bill propos-
Ing that the granting of marriage Ii.
censes should be changed from the
hands OF the territorial treasurer to
the county sheriffs, licenses to be is
sued by deputies. was reported on this
afternoon by the judiciary committee
with the recommendation that ii be
tabled.
Senator Pacheco appeared before
the judiciary committee today to ex-
plain that the chief purpose of the bill
Is to increase the county realizations
from this source.
Treasurer C. J. Mccarthy also came
tc the meeting at the request OF the
committee. He expressed the feeling
that such q change would be of little
value. and that the financial realiza-
ti0ns would not warrant il.
He mentioned the fact that the tax
commission has recommended the in
crease Of apporti0nment to counties,
which win answer the question finan-
oiaIly il Il goes through.
Chairman Castle announced that, as
Judge Whitney is now on Maui, dis
cussion of Pacheco's other bill regard
ing marriage after divorce would be
deferred until his return tomorrow.
It was recommended to amend the
hin by Senator Desha which would
place the power OF filling vacancies
on county boards of supervisors with
the supervisors themselves rather
than with the governor. The amend
ment would cause an election to the
position If the vacancy occurred early
in a term. otherwise the position
would be filled by the boards appoint

GERMAN EFFORT AT PEACE DIS
CREDITED BY BAKER.

WASHINGTON, Dec 24,-Germa-
ny's newest peace propaganda viewed
as a forerunner to an offensive in the
west unless the German-made peace
is accepted by the allies and the Uni
ted States should not for moment in
duce us to s.acken our preparations
for war, says Secretary Baker in his
weekly review of the military situa-
ton.
The Germans realize that within
short time our armies will form the
principle body of fresh strategic re-
serves remaining available on the bat
, tie fields of Europe Our armies con-
stitute the reserves of victory.
The review points to the fighting
morale of Italy and saws this may be
relied upon, no matter how intensive
the German peace campaign becomes,
1t says it appears that the Germans
are anxious to conclude the Italian adj
venture ir a manner similar to pre-
vious campaigns in Russia, Serbia and
Rumania, where as the result of the
stragetic envelops, gained at relatively
small costs will be tracts of territory

SHERIFF
HAS CLOSE
CALL
NEGRO FIRED ON OFFICER AND
WAS HIMSELF LATER KILLED

Aaron Ross, a lifetime escaped
negro convict, is dead and sheriff j.
H. Ward, painfully wounded in the
left arm as result of an attempt
Saturday night of sheriff Ward and
his deputy N. Y. Peavy, to arrest the
negro at the farm of Tom Slade,
five miles of Cordele The sheriff is
now resting we'll and will recover.
Sheriff Ward and Deputy Peavy
went out early Saturday night to ar
rest the negro, locating him in a ten
ant house. The officers advanced in
to the negro house together. The
negro was seated before a. fire.
"Who is this?" the sheriff in
CURED. The negro answered with a
shot from a Colts special, the bullet
perforating the sheriff's hat 3 fraction
of an inch above his head A volley
of bullets came from the officers guns
though the negro continued to shoot,
firing four bullets, the second CT which
took effect in the sheriff's arm.
Sheriff Ward fired four shots and
Peayv one. Three bullets struck
.he negro, one in the head and two
in the body The coroner's jury re-
turned verdict that the negro came
to his death by resisting officers.
The negro had made threats among
negroes in the community brought
out at the inquest, that he would kill
or be killed before he would be ar
rested again. He escaped from the
cbaingang three months ago.
Many interested friends have called
upon sheriff Ward during the day and
were gratified to find that he has es-
capped with no worse injury The
officer was able to sit up today and is
| improving
Coroner Fitzgerald and jury sat
en- the case yesterday and the findings
will probably be the end of the legal
phase.
Ross had been reported as an es-
cape, but had married in the COM
immunity and was trying to take his
wife away when a row started among
the negroes which brought the off
icers.
