TWO SHOOT EACH OTHER
TO DEATH IN ROAD DUEL

DALTON. Ca, December 18.-Jim
Sloan and v. w. Bishop. two promi-
nent farmers, met in the road near
Tilton, nine miles south Of here, this
afternoon. jerked revolvers from their
pockets and shot each other to death.
the encounter being the culmination
OF recent trials in the court involv-
ing two other families.
Bishop was one Of the defendants
in a habeas corpus case instituted
in the Whitfield county superior
court here by E. p. Moore. alleging
that his daughter, Bonnie Moore, for
merly a stenographer in Atlanta, was
being restrained OF her. liberty by
Bishop and his kinsmen.
Tim Sloan was not party to the
proceedings, but was an interested
neighbor, and the killing today is
believed to have been the result of
feeling engendered by the habeas
corpus trial.
The double tragedy created intense
excitement in the Triton section and
further trouble is anticipated. The
sheriff here has been appealed to
and will make an investigation of the
ARRAY.

PALMER SAYS KICK
IN CIDER IS LEGAL
Attorney General Rules for
lizard" Beverage-con-
flicts With Treasury.

Nature and not man puts the "kick''
in apple cider, and the use of that
beverage, HARD or otherwise, in the
home where it is manufactured is
lawful. according to Attorney General
Palmer, who yesterday submitted an
opinion on that issue to Secretary
Houston of the Treasury Department.
The opinion is in direct conflict with
the regulations of the bureau of in
ternal revenue, which are that cider
must be Notwithstanding in fact, and
are based on section 20 of the prohi-
bitfon act allowing the manufacture
of Notwithstanding cider and fruit
juices" in the home.
Nature Ii Recognized.
Congress seems to have recognized
the peculiar nature of cider, said the
Attorney General in his opinion, and
he continued as follows:
When the Juice OF apples is
pressed out the immediate result is
cider. When this is done an intoxi-
eating liquor, even within the defini-
ton of the prohibition act, has not
been produced. But fermentation very
shortly sets in, producing alcohol
and all that is necessary to convert
the cider into an intoxicating liquor
is the lapse of short time.
Has Not Made Liquor.
Broadly speaking, one who has
manufactured cider which has not yet
had time to ferment has not manu-
featured Intoxicating liquor
section 20 was manifestly sought
to- make it clear that it was not in
tended that one who manufactured
cider and kept it in his home for
beverage purposes until it fermented
would be guilty of possessing intoxi-
eating liquors unlawfully, the opinion
stated.
Section 20 says that to manufac-
ture this cider for use in the home
shah not be unlawful" Mr.. Palmer
asserted. obviously it does not
mean for Immediate use or neces-
sarily for use before it has had time
to ferment. I think clearly the pro-
vision means that after being manu-
factured as sweet or non-intoxicat-
ing cider, it may be kept in the home
for future use without violating this
statute"
