gets reckless. I'd made up my mind
I'd got to have some money and that
I'd go out and get 1t. So I fixed up
something that would do for a mask,
took my revolver and went out to hold
somebody up.
II walked around a while and then
looked into the soft-drink saloon Of q
man named Norman. He was alone
in the place. l held him up and took

being out Of a Job and broke, and that
when got work I'd return the Sc.
Il got job the very next day. Out
of my first weeks wages I paid
Moorman his Sc. Then I went to the
hall of justice and gave myself up."
Moorman was put on the stand and
corroborated Gilroy's story, rs to the
details Of the hold-up.

man, took standing vote, returned to
court and acquitted Gilroy as an "hon-

Falls in Virginia

Norfolk, Va.-The shock of a twenty
ton meteor which crashed to the
ground in an isolated spot in Motto
wa County, twelve miles northwest
of Blackstone, Friday night, was felt
for a radius of fifty miles, while the
brilliant glare of the incandescent body
illuminated the heavens over South
ern Virginia and sections of North
Carolina. The meteor fell in slow
curve from the zenith to an angle Of
about 45 degrees and was visible in
Norfolk and at points along the James
river, creating general excitement.
The meteor crashed into a grove Of
oak trees with an explosive roar, some
distance from any house, making
hole with an area Of 500 square feet
and buryine several trees with it.
Flames Immediately shot up which
were visible Tor many miles, while
trees caught fire.

Commissioner Terrell Says
Texas Must Help Herself

Austin, Tex-Commissioner Of Agri.
culture George B. Terrell, appealing
for planting seed to replant the flood
ed districts of Texas, declared that
there is no need of appealing to the
federal government for help" and that
the state is able to take care of the
situation and should do it. Commis-
sioner Terrell, in announcing that he
had made such an appeal, issued the
following statement:
Hundreds of thousands Of acres of
rich lands on the lower Colorado,
Brazos, Trinity and other streams are
flooded for the second or third time
this season. Crops are destroyed and
must be planted again. Planting seed,
both cotton and corn, are exhausted In
the flooded districts. ALI persons who
have cotton seed and seed corn for
sale, please notify the commissioner
of agriculture, Austin, Texas, at once,
giving quantity, variety and price.
There is no need of appealing to
the federal government for help. This
has been done too much already, and
it is the most costly help ever extend
ed. at it taxes us SO to give US 81,
invades the domain of the states and
weakens the foundations of democracy.
"The federal government has no con-
stitutional authority to appropriate
public funds for private purposes and
has no money except the taxes paid by
the people of the states"

GENOA CONFERENCE
MAY BE PROLONGED
Russia's Reply Considered as
Basis for Further Negotia-
tions.

Genoa.-Russia's reply to the allied
memorandum, which was presented
Thursday to Signor Schanzer, presi-
| dent Of the economic conference, is re-
| garded as conciliatory. At least, 1t is
considered a basis for further nego-
| tiations
It's suggestion that all the tangled
financial problems be submitted to a
| mixed committee of experts named by
The Genoa conference provided a means
of escaping the present super-heated
atmosphere, which appears to be unr
favorable for the settlement of the
myriad questions arising from the Rus
sian situation.
England regards the reply as mod
erately conciliatory; so also does
italy. The Italian foreign minister has
been working day and night to prevent
q break, which seemed imminent
through the opposition of France and
Belgium to the settlement of the prop
erty question which Great Britain and
the lesser powers will approve.
France expresses great disappoint-
ment at the reply and Belgium is far
from satisfied. NJ. Barthou, head of
the French delegation, declared after
an examination of the text that the re-
ply did not get anywhere and was
not really an answer at all to the al
lies proposal. Consequently it will not
be certain until after he has confer
red with the government in Paris
whether the Russia proposals will be
accepted by the French as basis for
continuation of the discussions.
In the meantime the future of the
conference is uncertain. Some Of the
delegations believe that it will close
precipitately, or perhaps it would be
truer to say that they hope it will.
Other delegates predict that it will last
six weeks longer and go into the Rus
sian financial tangle in great detail.
The latter seem to be in the majority
and indications are the conference may
be prolonged indefinitely.

FIGHT Law FOR
PURE ELECTIONS


Republican action to test the new
registration law. expected TO be in
itiated in the Franklin circuit court.
was interpreted as fear Of clean
elections by Judge Charles A. Har-
din, chairman Of the Democratic
state central and executive commit
tees
1T is passing strange" said Judge
Hardin. that a duly organized 20
litical body would institute suit to
test law that seeks to purify cleo
tons The registration Law has for
it's sole purpose clean elections 1t
contains no partisan provisions what
ever 1t imposes exactly the same
conditions on all political parties,
playing no favorites-
1T strikes the Democratic leader
ship that any party which is afraid
Of this law must object to clean cleo
tons.
Il am amazed that the Republican
party would put itself on record as
fighting a law designed to bring an
honest election. The only criticisms
of the law that ! have heard we're
that it would cause inconvenience or
cost something for its administra-
ton. No one of responsibility has
accused it of being partisan. Any
one who reads it can. see that it can't
be used by either organization in
selfish way Any organization which
puts itself on record as opposing
electoral machinery which insures
pure elections is doomed TO fall
Under the statewide registration
law no longer the groups of repeat
ers can be swung from poll TO poll;
from county TO county; from state to
state in border counties, to create
artificial and corrupt majorities. No
longer can the transients and famil-
les who are not entitled TO vote Sc
cure the privilege through corrupt
election officers. No longer can the
corruptionist. by use Of unlimited
corruption funds, be effective as un-
der the old law. No longer can the
unnaturalized citizen vote in the
mining camps of Kentucky. The reg
istration law is not for the benefit
of either party. but to bring about
clean and pure elections.

the most progressive laws ever en-
