PLAINS, June 10.-Hope for the
recovery of Zimmerman, Sr., who
was stricken with acute Indigestion

The state executive on his last
visit here predicted the closing of
the schools next year if the legisla-
ture did not provide more satisfac-
tory method of taxation at the ses-
sion this summer.
Governor Hardwick declined to
commit himself on the passage Of the
death sentence on Mrs. Cora Vim
son, convited of the murder of her
husband in Atlanta.
This matter is now before the
courts. | cannot say anything about
her case at the present time.'
In this connection, Governor Hard
wick said he would not oppose bill
which would provide for electrocu-
ton as means of capital punish
ment.
When the plan now being dis
cussed over the state, which provides
for the electrocutiop Of all doomed
prisoners at MilledgeYille instead Of
local hanging, the governor said he
would approve of the plan If it met
with the approval of the state.
It would relieve Che shefiffs over
the state of a very Anpleasasit duty,
the governor remarked.

Rivals For Governorship Indicate Plan Of Battle

During the last campaign the gov
ernor didn't visit Savannah. However
he has been advised by political
friends that his support in Savannah
during the next election will be con-
siderably stronger than it was on the
last occasion.
ASKED for an explanation of the
investigation ordered for the state
prison, the governor said:
'fConstant communications, MAX
ing all sorts of charges of ill-treat-
ment of inmates by prison guards,
wardens, ct cetera, made it neces-
sary for the prison board to call
upon me, as governor, to order an
investigation. appointed five
judges to conduct the probe. 4
Il do not believe it will ever be
possible to abolish whipping at the
state prison. l do not think the peo-
pie OF Georgia will resort to mushy
sentimentality to bring such pressure
to bear as will defeat the manner in
which cases are handled there now."
The governor was asked whether
or not he thought the Ku Klux Klan
organization would have any bearing
on the next election. He replied in
the negative.

OLD WADE CASE
ARE DISMISSED
Records Closed In Famous Muir
der Trial BY. Nolle Pressing
Pending indictments

The famous Wade murder cases
came to an end, SO far as the records
in Sumter county were concerned,
when Judge Littlejohn this week
signed an order, approved by Solici-
tor General Juie FELTON,, nolle pross-
.ug the indictments standing against

dicted jointly for the murder of Wal
ter Wade, of Leslie, several years
ago, with DR.. Chas. X. Chapman, of
Americus, and Warren !. Johnson,
both of whom were convicted and
gwen life sentences four years or
more ago. The indictments against
the younger three, which had never
been called for trial, had been stand
ing on the records undisposed of
since before the World War, during
which at least some of the three
served with military records. Ultl-
mate dismissal of the three indict-
ments had been long expected.
An unusual paragraph was con-
tanned in the order as follows:
This order shall not affect the
states right to re-indict any or all
of the defendants Affected hereby"
