CONFER ON STATE
BOUNDARY CASE

Columbia, Jan. 8.-Attorney Gen,
eral Sam Wolfe left Columbia yes
terday afternoon for Atlanta, where
he goes at the request of the Geor,
gia attorney general, Hon. Clifford
Walker, for a conference regarding
the pending suit as to the boundary
line between the states of Georgi2
and South Carolina. Attending the
conference also will be Hon: Thomas
F. Green, of Athens, Ga, assistant
to Mr.. Walker.
1t is believed that the state Of
Georgia, has very poor case against
the state Of South Carolina The
case was brought by Georgia to de,
termine the location of the dividing
line as the South Carolina water
edge of the river separating the two
states. South Carolina has always
claimed that the middle of the
stream is the dividing line.
The case is now pending before
the United States supreme court,
where it went as original iurisdic-
ton. The next move in the case is to
be reference, but as yet no date
for this reference has been agreed
upon or announced by the court The
hearing will likely be held in Wash
lngton as the evidence is largely
documentary and most of the docu-
ments are in Washington.
Il is stated that the case is brought
with a view to putting entirely into
the state of Georgia the large hydro
electric power developments on the
Several rivers that make up the line
between Georgia and South Caro-
lima. IF Georgia wins the case it will
put large revenues into Georgia
Golfers that now comes to Scut:''1
Carolina.
: Legal authorities i'll South Caro-
lima are of the opinion that Geor,
gia's case is weak, because of the
fact that that court decisions Of Tx
past involving lands along the b22
der Of the two states, have rccogni
zed the center of the streams a IT,,
boundary. tits also stated that Gocu
ments in Washington substantial;

BRYAN EXPLAINS
TREATY POSITION

Chicago, Jan. 10.-William Jen-
nipgs Bryan told reporters today
that he and President Wilson "agree
in purpose"
| "We both want immediate ratifi-
cation of the peace treaty and a
speedy establishment Of the league
of nations,' he said "It, is simply a
difference Of opinion over a method
and not of purpose.
There is no reason why advocacy
of a compromise should be interprc-
ted as opposition to the president.
Nh. Wilson is an official and his re-
Communications trayel by their own
weight.
"The constitution gives the presi-
dent the right to make recommenda-
tions to congress. 1t gives congress
the right to disregard the recommen-
dations just as it empowers congress
to pass laws and the president to We
to them."
Mr.. Bryan said sc senators favor
ratification of The treaty but differ
as to reservations. He advocated a
compromise so as to keep the treaty
from becoming campaign issue,
:aGding:
"If the Republicans insist upon
reservations that the Democrats Can
not accept then the Democrats will
be in a good position TO take it as an
issue before the people"
