2 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1913. i CONGRESS TO STOP LIQUOR SHIPMENTS Webb Passed the House Friday Afternoon by Vote ' of 240 to 65 WASHINGTON, Feb. S.--By a non partisan vote of 240 to 65 the house this afternoon passed the Webb bill prohib iting the shipment in interstate com merce of intoxicating: liquor intended for sale in so-called “dry” territory. The bill makes It unlawful to ship transport or receive intoxicating- liquors for the purpose of illegal sale or use in any states or territories that have prohibited its sale. • The purpose of the bill is to prevent “blind tig-ers” from receiving: in prohibition states, ship ments of whisky. Congressmen Bartlett, Brantley and Hardwick were the only Georgians .to vote , against tKe bill. The other eight members supported it. It was contend ed on the floor of the house that the enactment of the law would not inter fere with the right of persons to re ceive shipments of whisky for personal [use in prohibition states. The house, however, voted down an amendment pro- | posed by Judge Bartlett, declaring spe cifically that the act “shall not be con- lotrued as to applying to shipments to any person for his own personal or i family use.” WILL BECOME LAW. Today’s action of the house makes lit practically certain that the bill will , become a law at this session of con- I gress. The Kenyon bill has been set as a special order in the senate for [February 11. Its provisions and intent are similar to those of the Webb bill land the prohibitionists of the senate will accept the Webb bill as a substi tute. They realize that an amendment of any sort will jeopardize the bill and probably result in its defeat. The bill considered in the house under a special rule and the debate raged for three hours. These Georgians partici pated in the debate. Congressmen Bart lett and Brantley eloquently and ably opposed the measure, while Congress man Roddenbery was equally as active and effective in his support of the bill. Mr. Roddenbery’s appeal was passion- ate, an<J his denunciation of the demon rum was unsparing. He contended that the bill gives t° Georgia and other states the right to exercise their sov ereign powers without hindrance by the federal government as to the regula tion or prohibition of the.liquor traf fic. He declared that no man who believed in the rule of the people could object to the measure and said that personally ho favored making the provisions of th^ -bill more stringent. Among other things Mr. Roddenbery said: COMER GETS LIBEL FOR STARK STATEMENTS Or Associated Press.) BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 8.—A jury here in the case of former Governor B. B. Comer against the Louisville and Nashville railroad and B. M. Starks, now general manager of the L. & N., has returned a verdict of $5,133.33 against Mr. Starks in Comer’s favor-for libel. The charge was made that the defend ants had caused certain advertisements to be published in 1904 when Comer was a candidstfe for president of the rail road commission of Alabama, which re- ■vtected^ori the plaintiff^’s character. Judge Nesmith, of the city court, ruled that the railroad in its corporate capacity was not liable for the publica tion, and the jury assessed the judg ment against Mr. Starks, who was at that time superintendent of the Bir mingham division. ROME PRISONERS HURL CARTRIDGES IN FIRE (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) 5 ROME, Ga., Feb. 7.—Prisoners in the "Floyd county jail were thrown into a panic Jjy the sound of popping cart ridges last night, and the officers thought that a mutiny among the - in mates was in progress. Upon investi gation by the jailer it was found that several of the prisoners had in some way secured cartridges and made a fire of straw from their mattresses and placed the gartridges in the fire, caus ing the explosion. The officers could not determine who the offenders were, where^they obtained the cartirdges or what their object .was. A thorough investigation will oe made in an endeavor to discover these facts. KILLS SON-IN-LAW WITH HEAVY WOOD LENOIR, N. C., Feb. 7.—W. J. Jack- son, a well-known farmer residing ten miles from here, had a difficulty with his sQn-in-law, William Thomas, this morning, and struck him over the head with a stick of wood, fracturing the gkull, the latter dying in Stanley. Thomas was a minerologist, had only recently come to this section, being lit tle known here. Jackson immediately Surrendered to the sheriff.

FAIRBANK COMPANY A DIFFERENCE It Paid This Man to Change Food “What is called ‘good living’ even tually brought me to a condition quite the reverse of good health,”' writes a N. Y. merchant. 2 “Improper eating told on me till my ^stomach became so weak that food nau seated me, even the lightest and sim plest lunch, and I was much depressed “after a night of uneasy slumber, unfit ting me for business. “This condition was discouraging, as I could find no way to improve it. Then I saw the advertisement of Grape- Nuts food, and decided to try it, and became delighted with the result. “For the past three years I have used Grape-Nuts and nothing else for . my breakfast and for lunch before re tiring. It speedily set my stomach right and I congratulate myself that I have regained my health. There is Wo greater comfort for a tired man than a ' lunch of Grape-Nuts. It insures restful ■ sjeep, and an awakening in the morning with a feeling of buoyant courage and , hopefulness. • ^ “Grape-Nuts has been a boon to my whole family. It has made of our 2- year-old boy, who used to be unable to digest much of anything, a robust,’ healthy, little rascal weighing 32 pounds.

HANDLING STABLE MANURE TO THE BEST ADVANTAGE Large Percentage of Valuable Elements Can Be Saved by Protecting From Exposure Very few farmers have manure sheds in which to house their stable manure, consequently it must either be drawn directly to the fields or piled back of the barns. Where manure is piled in the open air for several months there is a loss by leaching of nearly 50, per cent. This fact has been ascertained by care ful experiments. There is also some loss by the heating of the manure in the piles, when the nitrogen is turned to ammonia and thus it passes into the air. The best way to avoid this waste of valuable elements of fertility is to haul all stable manure direct to the fields as produced. Many progressive farmers long since proved to their satisfaction that this system of spreading man’ure from stables enables them to handle if very economically. They save much time in the course of a year by this system of handling. It require^ no more time to fork the manure from the stables Into a manure spreader or wag on box than it does to throw .u into piles back of the buildings, where It lies and wastes away until one gets ready to handle It a second time and haul It to the fields. Those who have adopted the former system of handling their manure are firmly of the opinion that the only time during the year when there Is any excuse for letting any man ure accumulate around the barn Is dur ing the busiest part of summer, and this is seldom necessary for more than a few days at a time. Some farmers practice this system of handling their manure in supimer, but not in winter, because of an idea tirey have that there is a great loss by wash ing dr evaporation when manure is spread over the fields in winter. But this is far from being true except in a few exceptional cases. If the land is very hilly or If it is covered with a thick coating of ice at the time the manure is spread, some loss by wash ing may he sustained. Otherwise, there will be no loss from this source. As to loss by evaporation. It can be stated emphatically that fertility can not evap orate when spread on the soli. Nitro gen can escape into the air only when liberated by heating, as it escapes when manure heats in the pile. When the manure Is spread thinly and uniformly over the field no heating process can take place. And the potash and phos phoric acid contained in manure ‘are mineral elements, and, consequently, they can not evaporate. The soil may he crying for this fertil ity and these heaps also cause to re main Idle large areas that would pro duce crops worth many dollars. Possi bly some of the stray piles were not sufficiently rotted to be distributed over the fields much before spring. But here is the point: The man who keeps all manure from the stables hauled out as made will not be so’swamped with work In the spring that he can not spare the time to gat his old straw piles dis tributed before he puts in his crops. The modern manure spreader plays an important part in the economical hand ling of manure. Hundreds of farmers have proved this to their complete sat isfaction. The manure spreader in creases the value of manure by spread ing it thinly and uniformly, thus bring ing every particle of manure into con tact with soil particles, and then the spreader enables a farmer to move his manure to the fields quickly. Handling manure entirely by hand is slow and la borious work. The spreader eliminates about one-half of this work. It will not load Itself, hut it will unload Itself in from three to ten minutes while the driver rests after the exertion of load ing the spreader. The owner of a manure spreader finds it entirely feasible to haul all his ma nure directly from the stables to the fields every month in the year. Many farmers who do not have a load of ma nure per day keep their, spreader stand ing back of the barn and throw all ma nure into it when removed from the stalls, then when there Is a full load It is the work of but few minutes to hitch a team to the spreader and drive to some field where there is a need of fertilizing elements. Except in extreme northern portions of our country where deep snows may remain on the ground for long periods, there are few times in the course of a year when this sys tem cannot be practiced regularly. Dur ing these times a sled and wagon box can be used for hauling the manure until the spreader can again be put to work. By all means get the manure onto the land as speedily as possible. Should there be any waste of fertilizing ele ments after the manure is spread—and there will be little. If any, such waste— this waste will not be so great as would occur If the manure were piled In the open air back of the barns, where it will demand your attention next spring along with the other spring work. Kentucky Senator Says Anti- Jug Measure Would Vio late Constitution (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—“When a member of this body is charged with the duty of construing the constitution the question of the effect his decision may have on his personal fortunes should not for one moment be considered When such a thought enters his mind he should with due haste exclaim 'Get thee behind me, satan.’ ” Senator Paynter, of Kentucky, thus began a speech in the senate today in opposition to the Kenyon-Sheppard liquor bill, which would prohibit ship ments of liquor into “dry” states. The bill is to be voted on in the senate Feb ruary 10. Senator Paynter said he would like to have the respect and ap proval of the people urging passage of the law. ‘But if one must violate the constitu tion he has sworn to support and main tain, and thus suffer the prostitution and self-abasement consequent upon a violation of that oath, the price which he pays to obtain their approval Is too great,” he cried. Mr. Paynter condemned the bill on the ground that it violated the consti tution in that it surrendered to each “dry” state the entire control over in terstate commerce in that state. Con gress had no right, he said, to pro hibit direct personal shipments of liquor or any other merchandise to citizens within any state. Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, intro duced an amendment to the bill today to permit the continued shipment of liQbor direct to Individual citizens in * dry” tsates “for personal or family use.” GIRL SENDS MESSAGE DF DEAD CHRISTIANS She Tells Missionary Societies of Torture, Rapine and Merciless Slaughter MINERS TO RAISE STRIKE FUND EVERY MONTH (By Associated Tress.} INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Feb. 8.—To aid the strikers in the West Virginia dis trict the official board of the United Mine Workers of America yesterday or dered that each member of the organiza tion be assessed 50 cents a month, which will bring in a total of approximately $200,000 monthly. The money will be used, it was said, to send organizers into the district and to provide food and shelter for the strikers. Vice President Frank J. Hays and Directors Haggerty and Paulsen will take charge of the work in West Virginia, Improve Court House (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) JACKSON, Ga., Feb. 7.—County Com missioner J. O. Gaston will within the next few days begin improving the court house square, the old fence that surrounded the square having been sold and torn down. BOSTON, Feb. 8.—Horrible atrocities perpetrated by the Turks against Chris- ! tiahs in the war zone are charged in a j letter received here today from a Boston • girl, Olympea A. Bosdan, Greek by birth, i now in the Balkans. Torture, rapine and j merciless slaughter are abroad through every land where the Moslem hordes, I crazed by defeat of their arms, are swarming to wreak their vengeance on j the unarmed “infidels,” writes the girl in an urgent appeal to American mis sionary fcocieties to bring their influ ence to the aid of the victims. The letter was wired from Saloniki to Brandizzi and mailed from there to Miss Bosdan’s brother in Boston. It is the most definite and startling bit of description that so far has evaded the censorship of the Turkish authorities. “Today the inlands of Asia Minor are what Macedonia was before the war,’* writes the girl. “In Armenia murder and rapine is in full sway. Not a day passes unless some Moslem tribe, armed to the teeth, attacked some defenseless Christian villagers. Ferocious Arabs, Kurds, Tartars and Cherkesses of the Far Eastern provinces are being armed, incited and financed to terrorize Chris tians. CHRISTIANS ASK SUCCOR. “Every day thousands of Christian petitioners are coming to Contantinople to pray for protection for their wives, sisters and daughters. “The enlghtened and progressive Turks rejoice in the fall of the Ottoman in the Balkans as sincerely as they have rejoiced in the fall in the Red sultan “Thousands of Christian women are still missing and the brutes, the young Turks, who allow these conditions, call themselves the ‘party of union and progress.’ “And this same ‘party of union and progress’ is now threatening the mas sacre of the Christians in Asia-Minor, should the allies march into the capital of Turkey. “.Since the beginning of the Balkan war 20,000 Christians have been killed by the Moslem fanatics. “During the young Turks’ regime, down to the opening of the Balkan war, according to the per q^pita list, 15,000 Christians were killed. These figures do not include the victims of the infamous Adana massacre. The Moslem courts of the empire are deaf to the appeals of the Christians for justice. “The Anatonian regulars, who on horseback are leading the fanatical Mos lem mobs towards the Christian dis tricts, and carrying as booty, scores of Christian maidens, are being rewarded as noble knights, patriots and the mighty defenders of their faith. “Throughout all the Asiatic provinces life and honor are at a •premium.” W, A, Meridith Dead JACKSON, Ga., Feb. 7.—At the age of twenty-two, Mr. W. A. Meredith died at his home near Stark Wednesday, death hav l ng been due to p’heumonia. Are You Subject to Constipation Here Is a Simple Way of Cor recting it Instantly Before it Becomes Chronic Very few people go through life with out some time or other being troubled with constipation. Thousands injure themselves by the use of strong ca thartics, salt mineral'waters, pills and similar things. They have temporary value in some cases, it Is true, but the good effect is soon lost, and the more one takes of them the less effective they* become. A physio or purgative is seldom neces sary, and mubh better and more per manent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind a high sounding name, but is what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medi cine. It is so mild that thousands of mothers give it to tiny infants, and yet it is compounded, and contains such definite ingredients that it will have equally good effect when used by a per son suffering from the worst chronic constipation. In fact, among the great est endorsers of Syrup Pepsin are eld erly people who have suffered for years and found nothing to benefit them until they took Syrup Pepsin. It is a fact that millions of families have Syrup Pepsin constantly in the house, homes like those of Mrs. G. B. Pruitt, Berea, Ky„ who used Dr. Cald well’s Syrup Pepsin as a laxative tonic. Mrs. Pruitt writes that it so strength ened and cleansed her system that she was quickly relieved of a severe cough which had troubled her for months. The special value of this grand laxative ton ic is that it is suited to the needs of every member of the family. It is NO GAUGUS PLEDGE BATTLESHIP “Economy Caucus” of Dem ocrats Fails to Material ize Saturday Night (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—No caucus pledge will bind the house Democrats this year when they vote on appropria tions for battleship construction. An “economy caucus” called for to night by members opposed to the authorization of any battle ships In the naval appropriation bill at this session, failed to materialize as a re sult of the absence of practically all Democrtic members who favor an in creased navy. Only seventy-three members appear ed and, as 112 were needed for a quo rum, the meeting adjourned after lis tening to a pension speech of Repre sentative Sherwood, of Ohio. Speaker Clark and Democratic Lead er Underwood were present, although it is an open secret that both opposed the calling of the caucus. Only three members of the naval committee at tended Representatives Hensley, of Missouri, and Tribble, of Georgia, op posed to battle ships, and Talbott, of Maryland, who made the point of no quorum and moved adjournment. The absence of a quorum was not unexpected, word having been passed yesterday that the “two battle ship” men were to stay away to make certain there should be no action. It is stated that the naval commit tee is certain to recommend the con struction of at least two battle ships and, with a large majority of Repub licans in the house favoring an in creased navy, the big navy advocates say there is no doubt about favorable action on th e committee’s report.
