before the assembly today urged that
the five suspended socialist members

majority report of the judiciary COM

which it was stated that the social
lists. as individuals and as party have
been proved disloyal.
Roosevelt argued that a graver
question before the assembly is eN-

such an act would be to commit a
crime against representative govern

MUCH INTEREST IN
 HIGH COURT RULING
Point Involved In Income Tax Case Identical With
 That In Alabama, Claim

Selma, March g.-(Special. )--Loeal plain tiffs in the test suits instituted to se- cure a supreme court interpretation of the new state income tax law were much interested in the adverse decision of the United States supreme court on a similar statute sent up from New York state.
 The point involved in the New York case is identical, it is claimed, with the one raised i'll the suit of Ullman vs. Lie pold Brothers, now pending in the cireui; court of Dallas county. It presents the contention that the provision giving cer- tain exemptions to residents of the state which are not extended to non-residents is void under the constitution of the United States.
 Assuming that one of two results are brought about by the New York decision either that non-residents cannot be taxed on their incomes in Alabama or else all or the personal exemptions under the law are wiped out, the question will arise, say leaders of the movement here as to whether the legislature would have passed the income tax act without these exemptions or would have passed it if the act had taxed only citizens of this state and had failed to tax non-residents on Incomes that arc derived in Alabama Tn, opinion of the Alabama supreme cour Will be awaited here with keen interes.

NEGROES ARE HELD
 FOR SHOOTING TWO.
Feeling Running High In Meridian Following All
 legged Confession

Meridian, Miss. March 2.-(Special) Henry Lloyd and Will Echols, negroes, have been arrested for the murder early sunday morning of Henry w. Davis, night watchman at the Prime Lumber Company plant, and the shoot ing of James A. Tyrell, suburban mer- chant the night before. One of the negroes. Henry Lloyd, when positively identified by Tyreil at the hospital wnere he is still lingering between life and death, and negro woman who was Tn the store when the merchant was shot, according to Chief of Police Monette, has made a complete confess sion, duplicating Will Echols not only in the shooting and robbery of the mer- chant, but declaring Echols fired the shot that instantly killed the night watchman. Both negroes were taken on the early morning train today to Jackson for safekeeping, as the people here are much aroused over the brutal murder and attempted murder.
 Lloyd, the officers say, confessed that he and Echols borrowed a single-bar rel shotgun from another negro for the purpose of going hunting, and that late Saturday night they went to Ty- relps store and while Echols waited on the outside Lloyd entered, asked for the purchase of a can of peaches and when Tyrell turned to the shelving to get the peaches he produced the shotgun from underneath his coat, commanded the merchant to throw up his hands, but not waiting for him to comply, fired the contents of the weapon into his side. He secured S4.50 from the cash register. A negro woman who was in the store fled with the report of the gun. Joining Echos on, the out side. the money was divided.
 The two then went to the vicinity of the Prime Lumber Company plant where just before daylight Sunday morning the aged night watchman was murdered. Lloyd, according to the of ficers, stated that here Echols took the shotgun from him, saying, T am going to get this one,' and slipping to the boiler room in which the watchman was sitting huddled over fire. he de- liberately fired at the old man. the con tents of the gun entering the back of the head, causing instant death. The body was then robbed of $17 in cash, a gold watch and the dead mans pistol The booty was divided and the gun was taken to the home of Lloyd, where it was afterward found by the police The watch and pistol were also fecov- cred, the watch having been sold for $5 and the pistol for A. by the alleged murderers.
 The funeral of Henry w. Davis was held today and James A. Tyrell Is not expected to live.

The governor has informed his friends that he believes the state should have full representation because of the diffi- cult problems coming up in Congress sdaily.
 Nobody knows who will receive the ap- peintment. Governor Kilby will not be- gin consideration of the various persons mentioned until official notification of the vacancy comes and when it does come he will not delay the appointment.
 In making the selection the governor 'bf whether or not the appointee should go into the election for the full un- expired term. Of course, it Is believed the governor would like to name a man who would be elected by the voters, but at the same time it is known that he believes every man holding public office should remain on his job. The question then is, win man given the short term and a candidate for the full unexpired term remain on the job in Washington or on the job in the political campaign?'
 While the Alabama election laws pro- vide that the governor shall forthwith call a special election to fill any va cancy in ths senate. it is believed some plan can be worked out whereby a nomi- nation can be made in the primary, May I'll. and the nominee elected in a special election a few days later Many believe the governor will call the special cleo tion for May II, but several difficulties have been pointed out which may cause the special election to be held on a later date.
 Republicans will enter the special elec- tion. They now claim to have 30,O00 regis tered voters in Alabama. If they have fthey will hold the balance of power Is several prominent democrats enter the race, the republicans will make the se- lectiori. It is even possible that the re- publicans with small minority of the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-03-03

votes can elect a senator if several propl- inent democats are able to divide the votes of the democrats about equally among themselves.
 These questions and many others must be answered before the governor decides to hold the special election on the day Of the primary. Some money would be saved by having double election but the state must go to an additional ex- pense even if the special election should be held with the primary. Separate boxes must be provided and other political par ties will be entitled to representation in the polling places

A JOINT
country CLUB

There is considerable sentiment a.
mong the business men of Stevens
Point, Marshfield and Grand Rapids
for a joint Club House to be erected
upon the banks of the Wisconsin river
at suitable point to be agreed upon
somewhere midway between Grand
Rapids and Stevens Point. Such
Club House, beautifully located, with
suitable house and grounds, would do
more to cement the social and busi-
ness interests of the three cities than
any other cr@aniza tion could do. Here
thew would have pleasure in social
and business intercourse where they
could discuss local matters of their
own city matters and such other busi
ness matters that would benefit all
three, such as good roads, joint coun-
ty interests, etc The social feature
of getting together. during the sum-
mer months, where they would be re-
moved from business cares and trou-
bles. Boating, fishing. hunting in their
season would be available besides, all
outdoor sports would be possible. The
opportunities are great and if the bu-
siness men of the three cities will put
their combined united efforts in such
an organization they can make it a
summer home where all can get pleas
IRE and rest, and make it an uplift
rlare for the betterment Of the three
cities. A good move if rightly organ
ized.
