Elk rum ROW PILOT
NOW j. S. WITNESS
C. A. Smith Says Dryer Paio
Him SAC, 600 for Steering
Cargoes to Shore.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July Exchanges of
conscience, as we'll as of fortune,
have come to Charles Algernon Smith,
the Governments star witness In
the trial of William. v. Dwyer and
nine others, charged with enormous
Illegal importations of liquor.
Smith who testified that he once
piloted vessels for Dwyer, making
runs between rum row and the shore
at $500 a. trip, is now employed at
$50 a week in reconditioning a Gov
eminent rum chaser.
He said he made more than 200
runs for Dwyer, who is alleged TO
have brought $40,000,000 worth of
liquors into the country. Only on
three occasions, Smith said, did the
vessels he pil0ted fall victims TO the
Government cutters The only time
he was afraigned, he said Dwyer put
up the bond and his case was never
called in court.
The defense counsel sought to draw
from Smith his reasons for accepting
work on a Government vessel and
testifying against a; man in whose
employ he had earned more than
$40 .000. u
Smith testified that on the rum
running trips the Iiquor-laden contact
boats were always met by, agents Of
Dwyer with several uniformed police
men standing around. Once, he said,
load of liquor was landed on the
Bellevue Hospital docks.
During the war Smith was a petty
officer in the Navy. Under cross
examination it was developed that. he
had been given three months dis
cipline for striking another petty,
officer.

EVERY COUNTY JAIL in
STATE BEEN INSPECTED

Announcement was made today by
the State Board of Public Welfare
that for the first time in the history
of the board has it been possible for
the board to inspect all county jails
of the state by the end of the fiscal
year. Until this year the limited ap-
preparation has handicapped the board
in both staff and travel expenses.
"One hundred percent of the coun-
ty jails in Georgia have been visited
by the state board of public welfare
during 1896" stated Hugh N. Fuller,
assistant secretary of the department
today. "This means that member
of our staff or representative of the
department has visited every one of
the county jails in the 161 counties of
the state at least once and that by
December 31st there will be ayaila-
BILE for every county report on the
condition of it's Jail with recommends
tions for any needed changes"
"In many cases the Jail of partic-
ular county has been visited as many
as 2, 3, and even more times during
the year in order to obtain the neces-
sary information upon which a fair
and constructive report could be bas-
ed as well as to enable the department
to assist the county in carrying
through it's plans for improvement" "
further states Mr.. Fuller. "Most of
these reports have already been for
warded to the county commissioners,
sheriffs, superior court judges and
grand juries and the remaining few
are now being prepared and will be
forwarded before the end of the
year."
Much of the constructive work done
in Georgia jails has been due to the
untiring efforts of committees Of To-
cal citizens who have accepted the
recommendations regarding the Jail
as the goal of their efforts and have
prevailed upon forward thinking
county officials to place these recon-
mendations in effect. Taken as a
whole 1926 finds the jails of Georgia
far cleaner and safer places for per-
sons to be confined while awaiting
trial than there were in 1920.

COMPLETELY CRIPPLED
TH|RTY-F|VE DAYS
Tried simple home treatment
now walks easily without cane

How the agonizing pain Of en- acute
attack of rheumatism was eased, and
recovery fastened is told in letter
from John Smith of Shock, KY.
"I was taken with pain in my left
leg, and for thirty-fve days I could
not sit up" he writes. "I got no
better until I began using Sloan's Lini-
ment. Before / had used one bottle I
could sit up, and now can walk with
out a cane."
And it is amazing-the quick, gen.
uine comfort that Sloan's gives. It
doesn't just deaden the pain. 1t stirs
up the body to throw off the cause.
No need to rub even. A little Sloan's
patted on hghtly-and a healing tide
of fresh, germ-destroying blood begins
tingling through the aching place. Be
fore you can believe it, the pain, swell
ing and stiffness are relieved. Get a

TO ALL CHRISTIAN PEOPLE

Will we not awake out of sleep
and open our eyes and Sc emore clear
ly the conditions that surround US as
Christian people.
With our several churches suppos-
ed to be standing for God and sal
vation and quite a large number OF
the members on the DEVILS territory,
boosting the Devils kingdom, en-
gagged in his playcards in the parloI
which is the alphabet Of vice and
degradation, which leads to the slums
in the back alley.
Next you see them at the movies
going through barrel of slop and
filth to get a little gold at the bot.
tom, a scene that is degrading to be.
hold. They have tied on in conclu-
sion a little speech of what they cal
moral and call it moral picture.
Shame upon humanity to say moth
ing about Christianity.
Here is the remedy. Christ formed
in you the hope of glory. If we be
risen with Christ set your affections
on Heavenly things, seek those things
above where Christ sitteth at the
right hand of the Father.
| Now the exhortation to you is to
come out from among them, and be
We separate saith the Lord and touch
not the unclean thing, and l will re-
ceive you and you shall be my sons
and daughters saith the Lord.
T., If YOU will hear his voice harden
not your hearts as in provocatlon
Now if you will be corrected by Him
who loves you, He will bless you with
ewes to see and ears to hear and a
heart to understand, but if you are
without chastisement you are bas-
tards and not sons, while the light
holds out to burn, the vilest sinners
may return.
Today is the day of salvation. To-
morrow may be too late. When you
read this remember He is calling you
back to repentance. God says you
have lost your first love, remember
from whence thou hast fallen and re-
pent and do your first works or !
will spew you out of my. mouth, saith
the Lord and remove your candle
stick and that knowing the time that
now it is high time to awake out of
sleep for now is our salvation nearer
than when we believed.
The night is far spent, the day is at
hand Let US therefore cast off the
works of darkness and let US put on
the armor of light.
Let us walk honestly as in the day,
not in rioting and drunkenness, not
in chambering and wantonness, not
in strife and envying, but put ye on
the Lord Jesus Christ and make not
provision for the flesh to fulfill the
lust thereof.
But let us be patient in meekness
instructing those that oppose them
selves, if God will peradventure, will
give them repentance to the ac-
knowledging of the truth, and that
they may recover themselves out of
the snares of the Devil.
Who are taken captive by him at
his will, whosoever readeth let him
take heed.
Yours in Jesus,

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Dec. Is. = up = Vigorous
upturns in wheat values today resulted
from more attention being given to
domestic conditions and less to reiter-
ated reports of world surplus stocks.
Closing quotations on wheat were
firm, l 1s to 5s cents net higher, with
corn " to p cent up, oats showing
"a to i1h cent advance, and provisions
at gains of five to seven cents.
At first the wheat market here had
a downward slant induced by lower
quotations at Liverpool, but the fact
soon became apparent that sellers had
overreached themselves. Active specu-
lative buying quickly developed and
prices went climbing throughout the
remainder of the day. Most of the
buying appeared to be based on small
ness of Chicago wheat stocks and on
falling off in the domestic crop move
ment. To some extent low tempera-
lures over the United States winter
crop region were also accounted a
stimulating influence.
Friends of higher prices for wheat
pointed out that domestic primary re-
ceipts have of late been averaging
about half as much as year ago, not
that the United States
raised small crop last year and
large crop this year.
1t was also asserted that United
States wheat this season has been of
extra fine quality for milling and has
gone into consumer use at more
rapid pace than was iq general sup
posed.
Under such circumstances, it is con-
tended that Chicago is unlikely at
attract wheat for other cities.
Corn went up in value with wheat,
but Jagged little on account of pos
sibility of larger corn markets.
Oats displayed independent strength,
both May and July touching a new
high price record for the season.
Country advices indicated that oats
were scarce and the crop quality low.
Provisions were responsive to higher
prices on hogs and to more liberal
sales of lard.
