PISTOL TOTER'S ARREST
CAUSE OF EXCITEMENT
Crowd Thought He Was Negro Who
Had Attempted an Assault in
Cherokee County

Some excitement was caused on
the streets of Marietta on Wednesday
evening when it was rumored that
the negro who attempted an assault
upon a young white woman in Che
rokee county had been brought here
and placed in Jail.
The cause of the rumor was the
bringing of a negro from Kennesaw
to the jail earlier in the evening, who
had been arrested on suspicion at that
place, the officers finding As caliber
pistol in the grip he was carrying.
There had been no attempt to iden-
tify him as the assailant of the young
woman, but it was thought that he
might prove to be the same, as the
young woman had been struck on the
head with a pistol.
About dark a number of men and
boys were gathered about the streets
and Sheriff Swanson thinking it best
to be on the safe side, quietly took
his prisoner out the back way from
the jail and took him to the Fulton
county Jail, in an automobile. The
brother of the young woman saw
the negro who had attempted the
assault as he fed from the scene,
and he went to Atlanta to see if the
prisoner could have been the guilty
party, and says that he is not the
right man. He is being held however
for the courts of Cobb county on the
pistol charge.
The negro arrested was named Ber-
tram Hamilton, of Atlanta, the son
of a we'll to do negro contractor of
that place, and denies all knowledge
of the crime in Cherokee, and has
employed Herbert Clay and Harvey
Hill to defend him on the concealed
weapon charge.

.HOKE SMITH ANSWERS
ATTACK or CATHOLICS
He Defends Free Public Schools That
Would be Aided by Operation
of Smith Turner Bill

Washington, July Ex-senator
Smith, democrat, of Georgia, de-
clared in the senate today that the
criticism by Roman Catholic clergy
and organizations that the Smith
Towner bill, proposing establishment
of department of education, would
result in government control of edu-
cation, was unfounded.
''The claim that the bill takes
away the right of parents to educate
their children is false" said Senator
Smith. "The charge that this bill
would Danish God from every school
is without the slightest foundation.
The bill can only be considered an
assault upon religion by those who OPP
pose public schools and by those who
believe ignorance on the part of the
masses increases religious faith. The
charge is really an attack upon pub
lie education and shall not be per-
mitted to hide behind an expressed
attack on this bill.
"These attacks might have been
expected of leaders of thought in
the dark ages; at the present time
they are surprising and shocking.
81 cannot believe that the real lead
ers of the Catholic church or the rank
and file of it's members in the United
States are opposed to public schools,
or to an opportunity being given to
every child of obtaining an education
at the public expense"
The bill, Senator Smith explained,
would not prevent parents from plac-
ing their children in private or de-
nominational schools and is designed
to aid the states in giving free edu-
cation to all children who apply.
"The charge that it banishes God
from the school room and that it is
an assault upon religion" said SEN
ator Smith, twill be tolerated only
by one who opposes public education
conducted by state or local author
tiles and who oppose all schools, ex-
cept UNCONVENTIONAL and parochial
schools
Attacks made on the bill recited
by Senator Smith were resolutions
adopted May 80 at the Federation of
Catholic societies convention at New
Orleans and of the Benedictine Ma
tional Educational Association at
Peru, H., July /. He also stated that
Rev. E. D. L. Mcdonnell, S. j., of
Loyola college, Baltimore, had made
baseless charges against the bill in an
address June Is, and said at is diff
ficult to understand how preacher
of the gospel of Jesus Christ could
have been their author"

LEAGUE AMENDMENTS
Is For League of Nations But He
Would Guard Our Rights BY
Some Reservations

Washington, July 28.-Charles E.
Hughes, republican candidate in the
last presidential election, has drawn
up a resolution which he offers for
adoption by the United States SEN
ate, consenting to the inclusion OF the
league of nations covenant IN the
peace treaty, but suggesting four res
ervations to prevent Sacrificing the

ervations are:
First, that on giving notice of its
intention to withdraw from the
league, a power shall cease to be a
member or subject to obligations of
the covenant at the time specified
in the notice, but that such with
drawal shall not release that power
from debt or liability heretofore in
Cured.
Second, that questions such as i'm
migration or import duties, which are
solely within domestic jurisdiction,
shall not be submitted for considera-
ton or action by the league.
Third, that the United States shall
not relinquish it's traditional attitude
toward purely American questions,
which shall not be subject to juris-
diction of the league, leaving this
country free to oppose acquisition by
any non-American country to terrific
nv in the western hemisphere.
Fourth, that under article 10, the
United States shall assume no obi
cation to undertake any military ex-
petition or employ its armed forces
on land or sea unless such action is

Samuel II. Sibley is
the New u. S. Judge

The president on Thursday sent to
the senate the name of Judge Samuel
H. Sibley, of Union Point, to be the
additional United States judge for the
northern district of Georgia.
Judge Sibley was on the list of both
the Georgia senators, and his confir-
nation is considered certain. Senator
Smith has already asked for his i'm
mediate confirmation.
Quite a number of names were put
forward by friends in the state, but
by elimination the race narrowed
down to three or four and Judge Slb-
ley was selected.
He is a prominent lawyer and was
the president of the bar association OF
the state in 1918. He is expected to
assume the duties of the Office as soon
as his nomination has been confirmed.

Did You Pay the Part
That You Promised?

Everyone in this country knows
that the boys who went with the
colors in the war against the Huns
did their part. Some even paid the
greatest price it is possible for man
to pay. They died. They paid the
price of patriotism in full.
Yet many of the people who stayed
at home-the same people whose bat
ties were fought by those men with
the coIors-have failed to do their
share toward the winning of the war.
At the present time the United War
Work Campaign committees through
the Southeast are driving for the col
lection of as many outstanding SUBJ
scriptions as possible. This is neces-
sary if the seven welfare organiza-
tions will be able to complete their
work with the men still in service.
Every outstanding subscription in
this county should be paid in Speed

manded but comparatively small

full, little as it is. The boys whose
names are given below, paid their
price in full, and it is the biggest

FOUL CRIME COMMITTED
in CITY OF MARIETTA
Miss Julia Green Dies AS Result of
Injuries Inflicted by Unknown
Assailant in Her Home

On Thursday morning about ten
o'clock little Eugene Mcintyre went
to the home of Miss Julia Green on
Waterman street and found her with
her face swollen, bruised and bleed
ing, in a semi-conscious condition.
The alarm was spread at once and
responded, and she was hur-
ried to DR.. Nolan's sanitarium, where
an examination showed her jaw was
broken and head and face beaten up
with some heavy instrument, until
both eyes were closed.
In her condition she was able to
give little to aid in looking for the
perpetrator of the deed. She stated
that she must have been struck in
her sleep, having retired about ten
o'clock on Wednesday evening, and
remembered nothing more until re-
vived by the doctor. She stated that
on the previous day she had ordered
strange negro away fromg her lot,
but had no idea of the person who
committed the deed
For a number of years she has lived
alone in her house, being considered
queer character, and by some was
thought to have money hidden about
the house, and robbery was possibly
the motive. 1t is not positively known
but it is thought some money was
taken by the perpetrator, but some
money was found in the house by
neighbors who came to aid her, and
nothing is certain about this.
Miss Green died as the result of
her injuries at four o'clock Thursday
afternoon, without being able to furn-
ish any clue to the identity of her
assailant.
Such attacks as this should warn
our people to be on the alert and
no expense should be spared to run
down and punish the guilty party.
Officers cannot be too watchful of
loiterers, and the courts should see
that all vagrancy laws are enforced
by the imposition of severe penalties
on all offenders.

COBB COURT WORKS ON
THE CRIMINAL DOCKET
One Year For Forgery; Five Years
For Mule Stealing; Ten Years
For killing Man

When Cobb Superior Court con-
vened Monday taking up the criminal
docket, Fred Johnson, colored,
charged with stealing a mule from
j. E. Johnson, near Powder Springs,
was tried and convicted, and SEN
fenced by Judge Morris to serve five
years in the penitentiary. He filed
a plea of guilty to the charge of
using the automobile of Mr.. j. b.
Oglesby without the permission Of
the owner and was given IL months
in this case. The evidence showed
that he took the car first, went to
the home of Mr.. Johnson, stole the
mule, and tied it to the car taking
it back to Powder Springs, and tried
to sell it to some Gipsies camping
there. Mr.. Johnson recovered the
mule the next day. The negro's at
torneys, Clay & Giles, filed motion
for a new trial in the mule case, but
in the meantime he will be serving
the IL months in the automobile case.
Vera Morgan, another negro, who
was jointly indicted with Johnson
for stealing the mule was represented
by J. E. Motley and Joe Abbott was
acquitted.
Joe Turner, a young white man,
from Kennesaw, was convicted OF
forging the name of w. D. Chastain
to check on the Kennesaw Bank,
and cashing the same in Marietta,
was given a twelve months sentence
on the state farm. His health was
shown not good.
Jack Patterson, the Atlanta negro
charged with the murder of Fred
Moore, one-armed negro hackman,
on Lemon street, Marietta, in March
of this year, was found guilty of vol
untary manslaughter, and Judge Nor
ris sentenced him to ten years IN
the penitentiary. This case was hard
fought on both sides, Herbert Clay
and J. G. Giles, and Harvey Hill of
Atlanta, representing the defendant,
while Solicitor Dorsey, William Butt
and J. E. Motley prosecuted the case
The attorneys for the defendant
filed a motion for new trial.
W. NJ. Trammell, white, of Allan
ia, plead guilty in two cases, one OF
larceny from the Davis Garage in
Austell, and one of burglary from
the store of Georgia Trading Co., OF
Austell. Judge Morris sentenced him
to IL months in the changing on
the larceny charge and to years in
the penitentiary on the burglary
charge.
These were all of the felony cases
tried this week but a number of mis-
demeanor cases were disposed of.
Late Wednesday the court took a
recess until the first Monday in Sep
TENDER at which time it will proba-
bly, require three day session for
the disposal of criminal business.
Hon. G. B. Gam and Hon. c. M.
Dobbs were attorneys in more than
forty criminal cases tryable at this
term of court, and both being mem
bers of the present legislature, I'M
der the law the court is required to
give them leave of absence until the
adjournment of the legislature.
