St. Louis Globe-Democrat Aids Hyde

St. Louis Globe Democrat Aids Hyde
The two journalistic veterans who
are on the legislative firing line for
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat, Asa
Hutson and Chas. B. Oldham, for the
Sunday issue of that gospel of YER
acity when it comes to real news)
kept the wires red hot Saturday night
sending scorching information to the
"Great Religious Daily" dealing with
the inactivities of the Fifty-frst Cen
eral Assemly to the effect that Hyde
intended to exert every possible pow
er to put through his legislative pro-
gram" The same article went on to
announce that Clyde does not propose
to barter patronage with the legisla-
ture for legislation" and that he
"would not surrender one iota of his
power of appointment to put his pro-
gram over, but that the program
would go over regardless Of the op-
position of any legislative combine or
influence, and, this, in hurry too"
Here is an excerpt from the Globe
Democrats scoring arraignment of the
greedy, suggestive Incidence of the
present overwhelming Republican leg
stature, the very legislature it es-
poused, sponsored, stood for, and help
ed to elect last fall, as it appeared in
the Sunday issue of that big Repub-
lican newspaper.
by a staff Correspondent"
Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 5.--Gov-
ernor Hyde has decided to put every
ounce of his influence behind his leg
islative program in the Legislature
with view to putting it through be-
fore the congestion incident to the
close of a session occurs.
"He announced tonight that he will
send a special message to the Legis-
lature next week urging early and ia
vorable consideration upon the coun-
ty unit school bill which has back of
it the education interests of the state.
Later he will discuss in a special
message pending election bills for
safeguarding the primary and general
elections of Missouri against fraud.
The important election bills have been
reported from the election committees
and are now upon the House and SEN
ate calendars for engrossment.
Lawyers are now threshing his
measures to consolidate the various
boards and departments and these
will be introduced early next week
and vigorously pushed.
"Will Not Surrender Power"
Clyde said he does not promise to
surrender one iota of his power of
appointment-in other words he does
not propose to barter patronage with
the Legislature for legislation. He
proposes to push his administration
measures upon the grounds of merit
alone and let them pass or fall upon
that test alone.
Clyde announced shortly after he
took office that no. appointments
would be made unless there are actu-
al vacancies which interfere with the
operations of important departments
until after the important legislation
is out of the way. He explained that
he wanted to devote all his time, to
obtain beneficial legislation rather
than to the consideration of patron
age propositions"

To FIND FAVOR

Council is Anxious to Aid in
Work of Disarmament
Proposed by u. S.
PUBLICITY IS OPPOSED
British Member is Against
Proposal For Disclosure
of Nations Forces
PUBLICITY is OPPOSED

GENEVA, Sept. 8. - (By the Asso-
ciated Press.) = The extent to which
the Washington conference in Novem-
ber occupies the attention of those
participating in the work of league
of nations was demonstrated today
during discussion on disarmament
and amendments to the covenant.
while hope of satisfying the United
States on mandates was reflected in
the councils consideration of the
American reply to the principal pow
ers on that question.
The note was not officially before
the council, but the representatives of
Great Britain, France, Japan and
Italy have the text of the note, and
after reviewing the main features. all
agreed progress had been made to-
ward settlement.
The Washington conference was re-
ferred to by NJ sNobleniaire, French
delegate to the amendments commits
sion, who held that revision of the
pact should be discussed in Washing
ton with the Representatives of the
United States before anything should
be done to prejudice the question.
The council, however, decided to pro-
ceed to consider amendments.
The council rejected the Canadian
proposition to eliminate Article 10.
and adopted suggestion by A. ]. Bal
four of England. to appoint commits
sion to draft texts modifying the ar
ticle to remome the obligation of
members to participate in military ac-
tion to guarantee the territory of 9TH
er members.
Sir Cecil J. B. Hurst, England, II.
Peppin, France, and Prof J. A Van
Hammel, Holland, were selected.
The discussion of disarmament also
reflected the sentiment of several
members not to participate in any ac-
tion in advance of the Washington
conference. II. A. L. Fisher. British
member led the opposition to imme-
diate application of some measures of
publicity such as were proposed at the
assembly last year relating to the dis
closure of their armaments by the va
riouS nations.

GEORGE IS FOUND
|GUILTY MURDER:
GIVEN LIFE TERM
Prescott Man is Convicted of
Murder in First Degree;
Jury Out Four Hours
APPEAL is ANNOUNCED
Prosecution Asks For Death
Penalty for Man Who Shot
Prescott Under Sheriff

PRESCOTT, AriZ., Sept. g. Frank
George was found guilty of murder
in the first degree and his punish
'rent was fixed at life Imprisonment
by the verdict of the jury in the va
vapai county superior court here to-
night. George was convicted of hav-
ing murdered Under Sheriff Ed Bow
ers here on July l, when the officer
was called to the George home by
neighbors, who complained that
George WIS firing a gun inside the
house. The jury deliberated four
hours and five minutes.
The jury received the case at 4:1O
p m this afternoon. At Sis p. M
tonight. Judge R. C. Stanford, of Mar
jcepa county. who presided over the
case, and the attorneys, were summon
ed from a banquet they were attend
ing in honor of Richard Lamson, new
ly appointed second superior Judge
for this county, to receive the VerdiSt
The verdict was not read and record
ed in the court until $40, however.
Immediately after the verdict was
read counsel for George announced
that a motion for a new trial would be
made. They also declared that. if ne
cessary, an appeal would be taken to
the. state supreme court in an effort
to clear George.
In its closing argument, counsel for
the defense described the visit of
Bowers and Police Inspector E. G..
Gtpws, Of Phoenix, to the George
hume on July l, as IAN armed descent
upon "a home" The defense claimed
that, Bowers assaulted Mrs George
as = he, entered her home. 1t claimed
that. he showed her to one side and
that it.was this attack on Mrs George
and.the fear that Bowers intended to
shoot him tina caused George o shoot
Bowers. =
The prosecution in its closing argu-
ment, asked for the death penalty. A
large part of its Argument was devot-
ed to a description of the character
of Towers, who was described as mot
the sort of man to rush, gun in hand,
upon the defendant" The prosecu-
tion also criticized the defense for
what the former termed its "desecra-
tion and insult" in alleging that Bow
ers assaulted Mrs. George and thus
provoked the shooting.
