MARIETTA MAN AT HEAD
OF THE PERUVIAN NAVY

From the pen of John Boifeuillet
in the Macon News we are indebted
FOR the details of an honor recently
conferred upon a Marietta man in
the Navy.
The many friends of Commander
Frank Freyer will read this with in
terest, and will feel that the honor
is deserved one.
The article follows:
During the closing days of the
last Congress, an act was passed au-
thorizing the president, upon apph-
cation from the foreign governments
concerned, and whenever IN his dis
ctetion the public interest require,
to detail officers of the naval ser
wee to assist the governments of the
republics of South America in naval
matters.
Under the act the officers so de-
tailed are authorized to accept of
fices from the government to which
detailed and emoluments therefor,
subject TO approval of the secretary
OF the navy. While SO detailed such
Officers shall receive in addition to
the compensation allowed them by
such governments, the pay and al
iowance in their rank in the U. S.
Naval service. Commander Frank
B. Freyer of the u. S. N. has received
the signal honor of being selected

HOW THEY STAND In THE
BIG DEMOCRATIC SHOW

As we go to press on Thursday
evening the Democrats in conven-
stion had not yet taken a ballot
for a nominee for the office Of
president, and they had adjourn
ed to meet again at 8 o'clock of
San Francisco time which is two
hours later than our time.
The various nominating speech
making and work ON the various
platform planks has occupied the
time of the body, but it is thought
that a nomination will be reach
ed soon after the voting begins.
Of the probabilities, McAdoo
stands first at the moment, but
deadlock may bring about a
chance for a dark-horse, some
one whose name has not even fig
ured in the talk to this time.
Mr.. Meredith, the present sec
rotary of agriculture, a western
man and farmer and editor by
profession and practice, seems a
possible nominee, either for the
head or the, second place on the
ticket, and would inspire much
confidence in the west and south
although he has been in public
life for only a short time.
The influence of Mr.. Bryan is
enough to make impossible Cox,
of Ohio, or Edwards, of New Jer-
sey, who are both said to favor
the liquor peoples view OF, the
prohibition question.
Cummings is said to have made
many friends in the convention,
and is thought to be a good man.
He is from Connecticut and not
as strong in the west as McAdoo
and the west must be looked af-
ter this year.
Women are taking an active
part in the convention and will
in, every one hereafter, and will
probably be the deciding factor
in the election this fall. 1t would
appear that the Democrats have
hopes Of capturing more than an
even share of the woman vote Of
the country, despite the needless
rebuffs and insults heaped upon
their cause in Georgia and other
southern states.

BUSINESS GIRLS VACATION
FOR SEVEN DOLLARS A WEEK

Camp Highlands on Nickaiack
Creek in Cobb County, under the
auspices of the Y. w. C. Ais offer
ing most delightful vacation to
girls at most reasonable price of
seven dollars per week.
1t is located on the creek about
couple Of miles off from the cleo
trio line station at Carmichael, and
is also accessible to the highway and
has flag sation on the Southern,
which is called Highlands.
Many conveniences of home, and
all the charms of camp life are to be
had at this retreat, which is exclu-
sively for girls where they can dress
and play as they please. without
man or boy in the neighborhood.
Last week, Miss Israel, of the To-
cal Y. w. c. A. took out eleven of
the Marietta school girls for the
week, and all the good times report
ed would fill book. They filled the
bays with hikes, and swimming and
days with hikes, and swimming and
honors in the contests and inspec-
tions conducted by the Counselors
of the camp.
The other girls there at the same
time were camp from Atlanta and
about forty from Decatur, and fine
spirit Of rivalry existed among them.
The group from Marietta named
themselves "The Peppers" and if
any one should inquire, we would
risk the guess that they lived up to
the name every minute of the week.
At any rate ask Miss Isreal about
the mater. More are going later and
every girl has the chance.

An instance occurred in Ma
eta Thursday which shows how
uncertain is the fate Of blockade
runners, and w-breakears, who
live by their violations of both
the civil and the moral code.
Chief Bishop and his assistant
Goodson Were quietly driving on
Cherokee street, when out back
Of the bushes on a little byroad,
beyond the homeao Judge Blair
they saw a car, apparently in dis
tress. Two men were working on
a punctdred tire in feverish haste
and as the officers approached,
both men dropped their tools and
fled. The chief Immediately fol
lowed, leaving Goodson in charge
Of the car, and after several
blocks succeeded in arresting
one of the men.
The car Which was Hudson
Super-Six was found to contain
81 gollons of the usual noun
tain product. The car was held
under the law, and the whiskey
was poured into the sewers, and
the lone captive is held under a
charge Of violation of the prohi-
bition laws. OF course he dis
claimed any interest in the car
or it's load, saying that the other
man who escaped was the owner.
He gave an Atlanta address.
According to estimates made
the cargo would have been worth
about So, 900 if it had reached the
proper, or rather improper, mar
ket, which no doubt exists for all
kinds of poisons.

HIGHER COURT SUSTAINS
CLOSING DIXIE THEATER

The Supreme Court of Georgia
last week affirmed the decision of
Judge Morris in the F. G. Marchman
Versus Hugh v, Manning and j. C.
H. Wink picture show case, which
was carried up from the Cobb Su-
perior Court.
This case originated the latter
part of last year when Marchman,
who operated the Strand Theater in
Marietta, filed an injunction against
Manning and Wink to enjoin them
from operating the Dixie Theater.
Marchmaa contended that Man
ming had entered into a written con.
tract when he sold his picture show
in Marietta two or three years ago,
not to enter the business again in
Marietta, for a term of five years.
and that Manning had violated this
contract when he opened the Dixie
Theater here.
Judge Morris granted nlsi on it
pending which Manning sold his in
terest in the Dixie to Wink. On the
hearing Of the petition Wink con
tended that he was an innocent pur-
chaser.
The defendants were represented
by Tye, Peoples & Tye and Robert
Blackburn of Atlanta, while Judge
Blair represented Marchman until he
was appointed to the Judgeship, af-
ter which Anderson and Roberts OF
Marietta were employed by March,
man to appear for him in the higher
court.
The case has attracted considers
bic attention locally and elsewhere
since the first injunction was grant
ed on account of the character OF
the point of law involved.
The decision of the lower court
having been affirmed, the effect will
be to close the Dixie Theater.

The Democratic Leader, who for
seven years of the greatest strife
and turmoil throughout the en-
tire world, has safely guided his
party and country. His hold up
on the people Of this country and
those of foreign lands is based on
the gospel of humanity and the
brothership of man, and is more
secure than that of any monarch
on the face of the earth today.
1t is better to be right than to
be president, but this man has
been both. History will so tell it
to future generations when his
enemies and detractors have so
long been forgotten that only the
final trumpet shall bring them up.
He is not a candidate for a third
term, although he is most feared
by the Republicans, despite all
their Boosting.

JOHNSON STATEMENT
MAKES TOXIC SORE
tBy Associated Press)

TOXIC, Aug 6.-The statement Of
Congressman Albert Johnson at Ia
coma, Wash, Aug. 2, that thousands
of Japanese are smuggled into the
United States from Japan yearly, is
giving evidences of a tendency to IN
crease the feeling with regard to the
United States created by the arrival
Of the recent American note and sub
sequent newspaper attacks against
America.
The foreign office today made the
following statement:
1--WE can only express surprise at
the extraordinary statement made by
Congressman Johnson at Tacoma De-
tails of the scheme, as outlined by Mr.
Johnson, appear fantastic and most
improbable. While solitary cases of
smuggling come to our notice from
time to time, it is unimag inab BILE that
such an involved and intricate pro-
gram as described by Mr. Johnson
should be systematically practiced by
any group of individuals or organiza-
ton
THE japanese government would
gladly cooperate with the American
government in exposing any such lille
ultimate and undetermined system 1t
is hoped that Mt Johnson will give
the names of the banks, associations
or individuals concerned. All such
information must be in the hands of
Mr. Johnson, who otherwise would not
have made the statement.

That the colored women voters OF

that the great majority of them in

report received by the Republican

that, there are 1000 colored women
of voting age in Wayne county, and
he states that in his opinion, at least
Is per cent of them will participate
in the election. He further predicts
that the colored women of the county
practically will vote the Republican
ticket as a unit.
THE women OF my race in Wayne
county are thoroughly interested il

who submitted the report. These
women are particularly interested il
lettering the condition of their race
especially in the south, and they re
gard the Republican party as the only
agency which can bring about these
reforms.
The various women church organi
cations have been making a particular
effort for some time to arouse the
colored women in political affairs, anC
this effort has met with wonderful
success. Colored women are beins
