BLIND TIGER RAID
POLICEMAN sAMUELs OF WAY
NEsBoRo, AND JOHN COOPER,

WOUNDED.

WAYNEsBORO june 23.-Police-
man Jack Samuels and John Cooper,
the latter negro and alleged operator
of blind tiger, are dead, and Ed jeff

fatally wounded, as the result OF a
pistol duel between sheriff's posse
and the negro Cooper about 2 o'clock
this morning when the officers made a
raid on Cooper's home in search Of
whisky.
Sheriff Canady in company with Po-
liceman John Grubbs and Jack Sam
uels, of Waynesboro, and Ed, Jeffcoat,
of Jenkins County, went to Cooper's
house near Elmore station, five miles
from Waynesboro, to arrest him. When
they entered the house they found
Cooper had taken refuge up the Chin
aney. He was ordered to come down
and when he did so he opened fire
with pistol, two of the bullets taking
effect in the body of Policeman Sam
uels, who lived only short time. An
stomach and while he is still alive he
has only slight chance to recover.
He is now at the University Hospital
in Augusta. The negro Cooper was shot
and instantly killed.
Policeman Samuels was an efficient
officer. He was 81 years of age and un-
married and was Royal Arch Mason
His body was carried to Clark's chapel

SUFFRAGE OMENDMENT
EMBARRASSING QUESTION

ATLANTA, Ga. June 25.-The Susan
B. Anthony suffrage amendment to
the United States constitution, which
has been put up to Governor Dorsey,
is a difficult and embarrassing question
to decide, for whichever way it is de-
cided will result in criticism.
II this amendment put through
the national congress and ratified by
the requisite number of states, it will
take away from the southern states
the right to control the negro vote in
presidential and other elections.
Georgia can give her women the
right to vote by amending her own
constitution, if she wants to, without
surrendering any of her states rights.
But the Susan B. Anthony amendment
is the chosen instrument of large
number of suffrage leaders, both in
Georgia and other states, and they ex-
pect the governor to support the move
ment for, the adoption of this measure,
especially on account of the fact that
he has already expressed himself in
favor of votes for women.
