He afterwards received his masters degree at Harvard and was then called back to his alma mater as professor of English. Prof. Sticxney carries with him the best wishes of his former pupils.
 Dr. w. r. Snow. who holds mas ters degree from Harvard and a Ph. D. degree from Columbia. a teacher with good deal of note. has been employed by the university to take the place of PSof. Stickney. For about three years pr. Snow was head of the department of English at the University of the Philippine Islands, He has also served as professor of English at the Univer- sit7 of Kentucky and the University or Pittsburg. He is expected to arrive in about a week from Louisiana, where he has been temporarily employed,
 The university authorities consider themselves fortunate in securing man of the caliber of Dr. Snow as a successor to Prof. Stickney

GreenviIle, s. Co January 22.-William J. Bryan, when shown the statement sof Homer s. Cummings, chairman of the democratic national committee, tonight, declared the position of Mir Cummings of impartiality as regards candidates for the democratic nomination for president was not sufficient to justify his pres ence at the inaugural dinner given Gov ernor Edward Backwards of New Jersey Tuesday night. MT. Bryan characterized MT. Cummings presence at the dinner as "inexcusable'' and said that if MT. Cum mings thinks it his duty to lend his official presence to the starting of such a boom, he had better retire from the management of the party long enough to get acquainted with the sentiment of the rarty and the country"

NO MIsHAP OCCURS

Halifax. January 22.-The transfer of the passengers from the disabled trans pcrt Powhatan to the steamship North ern Pacific was made tonight without any serious mishap under the blaze of powerful searchlights from United States oestroyers and other ships that were standing by according to wireless mes- sage received here tonight The task. however, was difficult. although the weather was milder and the sea caimer than it had been for many days.
 With the arrival of more favorable weather conditions. Captain Randall of the Powhatan signaled to the steamer Lady Laurier that he thought it advisa- ble to again attempt the transfer of the passengers to the Northern Pacific. The tow was halted and preparations were made for the task. although it was al- most dark The Powhatan's boats were swung out and the destroyers were sig naled to come in closer to the disabled ship and play their searchlights on the gangways and ships boats .
 It was after o'clock before the first boatload of passengers left the side of the Powhatan for the Northern Pacific, which was standing off some distance from the distressed transport.
 The ship had been without heat or light. for more than five days and as it neared the coast the cold was becoming more intense.

 PREPARE EVIDENCE.
Chemical Test of Motor Fuel Shows It Meets All
 Tests, Stated
By FRED H. GORMLEY.
 Montgomery Bureau The Age Herald
 oofo Efr.f Naitno.t p.nk p,.,,a...

Montgomery, January 2.-tSpecial)- Officials and attorneys of the Wofford Oil Company are preparing evidence to counteract the contention of the state that their product cannot meet require ments of the gasoline inspection law which requires certain chemical proof of efficacy before it can be disposed of as gasoline in Alabama Their evidence will be offered in the hearing of the com pany's petition for a permanent injunc- ton preventing the state from levying inspection fees on it's product under the gasoline inspection law enacted in 1s19 which will be considered by three federal judges at New Orleans Saturday.
 Information reached the capitol from Birmingham today that Birmingham chemists had made tests of the product obtained from filling stations and that it met every requirement. of the law These tests will be given to the court in the form of affidavits. The state, in an- swer to the petition for an injunction averred on information and belief that the product could not meet the tests and
 
 attack on the law. Officials of the com pany promptly replied that all tests could be met and that it's case results from the |belief that unreasonable inspection fees are levied which are unnecessary for the enforcement of the law.
 The company also will offer proof to show that the state will not need ali the money which will be gotten from the fees. The constitution prohibits the levy ing of fees for inspections to an amount greater than is actually needed in doing the inspection work. G. T. Wofford. president of the company, will offer an affidavit that experts are not needed to make the tests, that machine costing s26 will do the work and that the com. pany has already placed an order for the machine Other evidence will attempt to prove that, the cost of administering the law will not tn more than sS5, ,0oa and that the inspection fee of one-half cent a gallon on all motor fuel sold in Alabama will bring into the state treas- ury $150.0oo a year.
 If the three judges sustain the con tention of the contestant the state will be prevented from inspecting and levy ing an inspection fee on it's product until the case is finally adjudicated. Regard less of the decision on the petition for a permanent injunction, the issue will come before Judge Henry D. Clayton in the federal court here at the next term of court.

MIR. BRYAN'S STATEMENT

Chairman Cummings statement is im- material His presence at the Edwards dinner is inexcusable. He knows Ed wards promised to make New Jersey as wet as the Atlantic ocean and after the election announced he would, if pos sible, prevent enforcement of the na- tionai amendment in New Jersey. His candidacy has been announced and his name has been filed in Nebraska.
 "The reports of the banquet indicate that the inauguration was incidental and that sthe starting of the presidential boom was the important thing The dis patches announced that his name is to be filed in Virginia
 with three-fourths of the democratic senators and two-thirds of the demo- cratic members voting for submission and with every democratic state ratl1y- ing the prohibition amendment, and With the liouor traffic outlawed by the con science of the nation, MT. Cumings ought to know that the Edwards candidacy is an insult to the democratic party.
 "Impartiality is not sufficient. If MT. Cummings thinks it is his duty to lend his offical presence to the starting of such a boom, he had better retire from the management of the party long enough to get acquainted with the sen- timent of the party and the country. Our party has enough to do meeting i've issues now before the people without tying itself to the corpse of the liquor traffic or degrading itself to the level of a business that became stench in the nostrils of the people
 "If MT. Cummings has any sympathy with the Edwards boom he is not fit to be the head of the democratic organiza- ton, and if he is not intelligent enough to recognize the injury he is doing the party by protesting impartiality between the Edwards boom and legitibate candf- dates, he ought to relieve the organiza- ton from embarra ssment by resgning.

the liquor traffic outlawed by the con- science of the nation. Mir. Cummings ought to know that Edwards candidacy is an insult to the democratic party" said MT. Bryan.
 The former secretary of state said Mir. Cummings knew Governor Edwards promised to make New Jersey "as wet as the Atlantic ocean, and announced after his election that he would prevent, if possible, enforcement of the national amendment in New Jersey. He de- clared that if Mir. Cummings had any sympathy with Edwards boom. he was not fit to be the head of the democratic Organization. and if he was not intelli- gent enough to recognize he was doing the party an injury by protesting inn Ipartiality between the Edwards boom and Legitimate candidates he ought to relieve the organization from embarrass- ment by resigning
 Mir Bryan spoke here tonight under the auspices of the Anti-Safoon League His formal statement, in answer to that of Mir Cummings is as follows:
