SAYS DISMISSAL LEGAL.
Joe III. Robertson, of Greenville, Ap-
pealed Case.

Columbia, May 9.-Joe H. Rober-
son, of Greenville, game warden who
was dismissed by Wade Hampton
Gibbes, state game warden, according 6
to an opinion rendered to Governor
Cooper today by Capt. Morris G.
Lumpkin, assistant attorney general,
was legally dismissed.
Some days ago the chief game war
den dismissed Mr.. Robertson and the
Greenville legislative delegation re-
quested the governor to reappoint
him. Mr.. Gibbes, in a letter to the
game warden, advised him in case of
a recommission by the governor, he
was discharged automatically upon
receipt of the commission, should the
executive issue it, which Governor
Cooper did not do.
Because of apparent Inconsistencies
in the statute passed at the last ses-
ion of the general assembly, which
gave both the governor and the chief
game warden power of dismissal,
probation by the attorney generals Of
Governor Cooper asked for an inter-
fee.

STOCKADE HIS HOME.
Pardoned Convict Will Stick Around
Prison Which is Home to Him.

Although he has been made free
man after serving twenty years in the
state penitentiary, says the Atlanta
Journal, w. D. Smith, better known
as Barber" Smith, will probably
spend the balance of his days at the
penal institution, not as prisoner
but as a general factotem and handy
man for odd jobs. That is in accord
ance with his expressed desire and the
decision of the state prison commits
sion to allow him to remain at the
state farm has been given after Sc
ries of interesting incidents.
Barber" Smith was convicted of
mayhem twenty years ago in Bibb
county. He was charged with having
thrown vitriol into the eyes of his
landlady. Sentenced to life imprison-
ment, he served on various road gangs
in many counties of the state and ac-
cording to the records of the prison
commission, has been model prison.
er. On December 2, 1919, his sent
ence was commuted to present SER
vice." which gave him his freedom
but did not restore his citizenship as a
pardon would have done. He was
then 72 years old.
Barber" spent a few days with
relatives at Gray station, but soon
left for Atlanta, where he became i'll
and was sent to hospital by char
table organization. On recovering he
went back to the state farm and de-
clared his intention of remaining
there the balance of his days. 1t was
home to him, he asserted. The pris-
on commission, at loss TO deal with
his case has finally decided to let him
stay at the farm, doing odd jobs in
return for his board, lodging and
clothes.

AGED WOMAN: MURDERED.
Former Resident of Society Hill, S. c.
Slain Near Macon, Ga.

Macon, May 10.-With six knife
wounds in her left arm and six SINH
lar wounds in her neck, the body of
Mrs. w. NJ. Bairman, 60, widow of a
former assistant editor Of the Macon
Telegraph, was found near we'll
travelled country road, three and a
half miles from Macon this morning.
A coroner's jury investigating the
case this afternoon held that she came
to her death at the hands of an un-
known assailant and that the same is
murder. Sheriff Hicks believes that
the woman was slain by a negro.
The entire sheriff's force of depu-
ties is.a work on the case. Rewards
have been offered for information
that may lead to the capture of the
guilty person. Numerous raids have
been made during the day and again
tonight Of negro quarters in various
quarters in various parts of the city
in an effort to find some trace of the
guilty person. Feeling is running
high.
Mrs. Bairman's husband came from
Lancaster, Pa, settling in Savannah
when 20 years of age. He had con-
tinued his residence in Georgia until
his death seven years ago. Mrs. Bair-
man was Miss Annie Cleland Simons
Bacoat, of Society Hill, S. c., before
her marriage in Savannah in April,
1896.
Mrs. Bairman had been in the habit
of taking an eight mile walk every
day and she always chose the road
leading to Holton, on which she met
her death. She left her home, down
town, Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock,
after attending services at Christ
Episcopal church. Failing to return
at sundown the family conducted an
all night search in vain. Scores of
persons Joined in the search today and
the body was found just off the main
road near the waterworks pumping
station.
There was evidence of struggle,
Mrs. Bairman's clothing having been
torn. Her hand was lacerated by her
assailant in the fight that she put up.
Apparently failing in his purpose, in
the opinion of the officers, the negro
in his efforts to hide his crime slashed
the woman's throat six times, sever
ing the jugular vein.
Sheriff Hicks and his deputies raid
ed a negro crap game near the scene
of the murder Sunday afternoon, two
of the negroes getting away. One of
these, officers believe, may know
something of the crime. The imprint

Unrest-"Made in America"

We have in our midst distinctly for

of entirely alien doctrines. But our
soil is in no way prepared for such a
crop; and burt for our own hysterical
advertising of these persons and their
doctrines, they would not rise to the
point of practical significance. Ii Is
an entirely safe assumption that any
doctrine which advocates a change in
our institutions by violence would be
just as promptly dealt with by the
newer as by the older citizenship. The
record of war should make that clear.

WARS GARBAGE.
Iron and Steel, Relics Of Artillery Fire,
to Remain in French Soil.

What has been done with the hun
dreds of thousands of tons of iron and
steel which both allied and German ar
tileries poured into the fields of France
from 1914 to 1872
The answer to this question, prob
ably one of the 1irst to occur to the
average American when the subject of
reconstruction is raised. is simply that
for the most part very little has been
done with 1t.
Most of it is still lying in the same
spot where it came to rest after having
spent all its energy and destructive
power. Ut will continue to lie there
for years to come--rnuch of it for all
time, or until the chemical forces of
nature can break it up and reabsorb it
into the elements.
The reason is that the bulk is either
in such finely divided particles or so
deeply buried in the earth that any at
tempt to collect it for industrial pur-
poses would involve an elaborate and
costly reclamation project quite out of
proportion with immediate returns.
1t would also mean keeping torn up
many fields which could more profit
ably be restored to cultivation.
Lead and steel found actually strewn
over the surface and i'm form such as
would permit handling has, Of course,
been swept into piles along the road
sides and at the edges of the fields, 1t
will be remelted and used again. The
greater part of this, however, is not
remnants of exploded shells or shot,
but barbed wire entanglements,
wrecked canton GLASSES, and other de-
bris of the battlefield.
All this is the property of the gov
eminent. Proceeds from the disposal
Of the scrap iron will go into the in
demnity fund
Private individuals are forbidden
theoretically, at 1east--to pick up an
exploded shell case as souvenir. 1t
cost about Is cents apiece to mould
them taking the 75's as the average
and when Is cents comes to be multi
piled by. tens and hundreds of thou
sands it begins to grow into quite
respectable bill. The battle zone is
full of these piles of 75's which the
government intends to reeharge and
use again.
Unexploded ammunition, OF which
there still remain many smaller piles,
is being exploded in immense dumps,
usually a large field set apart for the
purpose (which looks like a vast vol
canic crater. When this work is fin.
ished, the larger chunks of iron left
behind in the crater will be assembled |
and sent to foundry.
Later, it is probable some serious at |
tempt will be made to reclaim part of
the iron supplies which German artil- |
lery left in France. 1t is expected, !,
