2 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA.. TUESDAY, JULY 1, 1913. i N. V. WORLD 1IHGES in QUIT HIE CABINET Attorney General Called "A Burden of Embarrassment to the Administration " by Big Democratic Newspaper BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—Con gressional circlesn were storred today over an editorial in the New York World demanding that Attorney General James C. Reynolds resign his place in Presi dent Wilson’s cabinet. Following so closely upon the heels of Congressman Sims’ speech in the house, j.'®«tArday. in which he read correspond ence indicating that McReynolds had commended to his serious consideration the views of a prominent railroad at torney n drafting legislation for the abolition of the commerce court, the World editorial was regarded as highly Significant. f Tonght there are many persons in Washington who predict that McRey nolds will “not last six months longer a cabinet officer." £ A BURDEN SAYS “WORLD." “Mr. McReynolds’s action in the so- dalled “white slave” cases has made 61m a burden of embarrassment to the administration," says the world edito- rial. “It is now evident that he wll be 9- contnuing burden of embarrassment f lie remains at the head of the depart ment of pjustice. He has put both the administration and the Democratic party on the defensive, and bothn of them Save infinitely mpre important business tlian that of disappointing their enemies h making unnecessary excuses. “Mr. McReynolds has given to the enemies of the Wilson administration their first opening. He has proved to be the weak spot in the president’s ar mor. “As long as he remains in the office of the attorney genral, the department of justice will be under suspiclan. It is the point at which the Wilson admin istration will be attacked at every turn, and it is the point at which the admin istration can not afford to be attacked. The confidence that is imperative has been forfeited, dt can be restored only by the retirement of McReynolds and the appointment of an attorney general who will not reepat the blunders that have destroyed McReynolds’ usefulness.” The immediate basis of the World’s editorial is the recent action of Mc- Reyonlds with reference to the Cami- netti-Diggs “white slave" prosecutions in California, and the western "Fuel cases." The World was not aware, when the editorial was written, of Congressman Sims’ disclosures with reference to the attorney general and the commerce court. MR. M’REYNOLDS’ LETTER. In the correspondence between Judge Sims and the attorney general concern ing the commerce court, the following letter written by McReynolds to the congressman has attracted much atten tion among the house members, as pub lished in the Record today: “My dear congressman: * “I am sending you herewith a copy oi a letter from my friend, Mr. Hines, who for a long time has been con nected with interstate commerce litiga tion as a representative of the railroads. What he says is always worthy of very serious consideration and I commend his suggestions to you. Very truly yours, J. C. McReynolds, Attorney Gen eral.” The “Mr. Hines” referred to by Mc Reynolds is Walker D. Hines, of New York, an official of the Santa Fe rail road, and formerly general counsel for the Louisville and Nashville railroad. . The embarrassing situation in which the attorney general has been placed has not aroused much sympathy for him among Democratic members of congress. Comparatively, few Demo crats have received much, if any con sideration at the department of jus tice since McReynolds’ appointment. He paid practically no attention to poli tics, and his failure to displace Repub lican office holders with Democrats has aroused much resentment. His reten tion of his predecessor's private secre tary and appointment of a Republican assistant attorney general have been criticised widely. Mr, M 1 Reynolds Declares Sims'- Note Misunderstood WASHINGTON, June 28.—Attorney General McReynolds favors the contin uation of the commerce court. He said so tonight, in a statement in re ply to a speech by Representative Sims, of Tennessee, in the house Fri day, in which Mr. Sims read into the record correspondence with the attor ney general, which Mr. McReynolds be lieves created the impression that he favored abolishing the court. SENATE CAUCUS HEARS END DF TARIFF TALK Administrative Features and Income Tax Alone Remain, Debate Due July 4 WASHINGTON .June 80.—Impatient at delay in getting: the tariff bill be fore the senate, administration leaders, headed by Chairman Simmons, of the finance committee, spurred the Demo crats to action today in the tariff cau cus, and tonight consideration of all the schedules practically had been com pleted. During the day the caucus approved the wool manufacturers, silk, paper and flax, hemp and lute schedules, and to night took up sundries and the free list, to be followed Monday by consideration of the administrative features and in- come tax section. * Surprising to many of the senators, the caucus passed through the commit tee amendments today without much friction and no changes were made in any of the schedules, although at the request pf the committe a few items of the wool schedule were referred back. In the wool schedule the com mittee suggested that combed tops and noils, which are dutiable in the bill at 15 per cent, might be further reduced, if not put on the free list, and this was referred back for further recom mendation, together with the item on blankets valued at less than 40 cents, which the committee probably will rec ommend to be placed on the free list. The action of the committee in trans ferring raw hemp, flax and jute to the free list was approved by the caucus without discussion. The committee changes in the silk schedule substi tuting specific for ad valorem rates also were approved and no changes were made in the paper schedule, print paper valued at not more than 2 1-2 cents a pound being left on the unre stricted free list as in the bill which passed the house. Early in the day the only enlivening discussion occurred upon an amend ment by Senator Ashurst to put on the free list all woolen goods in gen eral use, such as cloth, women’s and children’s dress goods; ready made clothing, stockings and the like. It was argued that the Democratic plat form, in declaring for tariff reductions which would lower the cost of living, justified placing all clothing on, the free list. Members of the finance com mittee strenuously opposed such a wide reduction, however, and the Ashurst amendment was voted down by a large majority. Senator Simmons tonight declared the caucus had at last shown a disposi tion to hasten its work and he believed the bill could be completed by Monday night or Tuesday at the latest, al though considerable difference of opin ion is anticipated when the income tax is reached. As amended by the finance committee, reducing the normal exemption from $4,000 to $3,000 for single persons, the revenue to be de rived is estimated to be about the same as the estimated revenue under the house bill—$80,000,000. Reduction of the general exemption ,it was fig ured, would be about equalized by the additional exemptions for married men or women and for children dependent upon the income of a parent. The duty on oil paintings was raised from 16 per cent by the Democratic senate tariff caucus tonight, and gun powder and fulminating caps were trans ferred to the free list. A vote on the free list was not taken, but it will be passed upon Monday. TWO WHITE FARMERS ARE KILLED NEAR SHELLMAN J,*0. Wilson and Ben Swords Slain By Negroes in Country MACON, Ga., June 28.—A special to the Macon Telegraph from Shellman, tells of the killing of two white men, J. O.

DAN HUGHES BILL BE ASSISTANT TO PRICE Son of Congressman From Georgia to Be Named in State Agricultural Dept. FOUND A WAY To Be Clear of Coffee Troubles “Husband and myself both had the coffee habit ,and finally his stomach and kidneys got in such a bad condition that he was compelled to give up a good posi tion that he had held for years. 1-Ie wag too sick to work. His skin was yellow, and there didn’t seem to be an organ in his body that was not af fected. “I told him I felt sure his sickness was due to coffee and after some dis cussion he decided to give it up. “It was a struggle, because of the powerful habit. One day we heard about Postum and concluded to try it and then it was easy to leave off coffee. “His fearful headaches grow less frequent, his compexion began to clear, kidneys grew better until at last he was a new man altogether, as a result of leaving off coffee and taking up Postum. Then I began to drink it too. “Although I was never as bad off as my husband, I was always very nervous and never at any time very strong, only weighing 95 lbs. before- I began to use Postum. Now I weigh 115*lbs. and can do as much work as anyone my size, I think." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Write for booklet, “The Road to Wellville." Postum oomes in two forms. Begolar Postum (must be boiled.) Instant Postum doesn’t require boil ing, but is prepared instantly by stir ring a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water, which makes it right for most persons. A big cup requires more and some people who like strong things put in a heaping spoonful and temper it with a large supply of cream. Experiment until you know the amount -that pleases your palate and have it served that way in the future. 'There’s & Reason" for Postum. MEXICAN REBELS ARE BEGINNING TO GATHER (By Associated Press.) EL PASO, Tex., June 28.—Col. C. A P. Hatfield, commanding the United States border patrol west of El Paso, reported today to Qeneral Hugh L. Scott the arrival of Pancho Villa and his force of rebels at Palomas, on the border opposite Columbus, N. M. Another band of rebels under Juan Dozal, Villa’s chief lieutenant, is re ported by Colonel Hatfield at La As- concion, south of Falomas. Teribio Ortego is at Lake Guzman, still further south, with another force. Villa’s command from Ojinaga is today reported opposite Fabens, Tex., east of Juarez about forty miles. MAYBE JACK JOHNSON HAS GONE FOR GOOD (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, June 27.—rJack John son, the negro pugilist, has made good his escape from the United States for the time being at least, and can neither be extradited nor deported from Canada, according to the latest official view here. If the United States circuit court of appeals sustains the negro’s conviction his one-year sentence for violating the white slave law will be enforced any time he returns to the United States. NEW Y0RK-MEMPHIS LIMITED WRECKED (By Associated Press.) BRISTOL, Va.-Tenn., June 28.—New York and Memphis limited, No. 25 was wrecked near Greenevilie, Tenn., on the Southern Railway at 6:30 o’clock this afternoon. Three coacfhes left the rails, but no one was injured seriously. The train was delayed until late tonight. Dan G. Hughes, of Danville, Twiggs county, son of Congressman Dudley M. Hughes, of the Twelfth district, is to be the new assistant commissioner of agriculture. His appointment will be announced by Commissioner J. D. Price, of Farmington, on Monday, immediate ly after that official takes his oath of office before Governor Slaton. Mr. Hughes will succeed J. J. Brown, of Bowman, who has been the assist ant under J. J. Conner, the retiring commissioner. It is not believed that there will be any other immediate changes in the forces of the agricul tural department. The new assistant is a member of the State Agricultural society, and through that connection he has been an active and effective supporter of the Georgia State fair, which is held annually un der the auspices of the society. He has also been closely associated with the officials of the rarmers’ union, the farm demonstration work, the boys’ corn club movement and other progres sive factors, ahd the indorsements of his candidacy by the leading spirits of these organizations testify in flattering terms to the regard in which he is held by them. Mr. Hughes has been a farming farm er ever since leaving college, and there is nothing of the theorist about him. His only ventures into print have been articles in the daily and farm press dis cussing the conditions surrounding the tenant former in southern states and the best means of making them farm owners. He has been a close student of farm problems, and his hobby has been the development of a system of keeping accurate records of farm operations which will show the exact cost of grow ing each crop. In his opinion, instead of preaching diversification or stock-raising as ab stract principles, demanding a change in' our farming system, it will be much more efficacious to develop a method that will show the profit or the loss in the one-crop plan in plain figures that will convince the most conservative farmer. The same fundamental fact applies to the use of antiquated farming tools as against modern implements and cul tural methods. He has worked out his system by actual observation and daily records for several years on his plantation and also on a one-horse farm. IS KILLING PHYSICIAN Smith, Who Decoyed Doctor from Home and Killed Him is Hanged GAINESVILLE, Fla., June 27.—Tom Smith, a negro, was hanged here today for the murder in February last year, of Dr. H.

Bla lock ,of Fayetteville, today was nomi nated by President Wilson as internal revenue collector for the state of Geor gia, vice Henry S. Jackson. Blalock was nominated on the recommendation of Senator Hoke Smith. The nominations of Joseph S. Davis, of Albany for United States marshal, for south Georgia, and David C. Bar- row for customs collector at Savan nah, did not come in today. Their ap pointments were recommended by Sen ator- Bacon some days ago. It is un derstood there is no objection to the appointment of Barrow, but the an nouncement of Davis' selection by Mr. Bacon has aroused a storm of protest that has reached the White House. / When Senator Smith recommended the nomination of Blalock, it was an nounced through the press that Senator aBcon had called at the White House to voice his opposition to th,e nomina tion unless a place was found for Cal vin M. Hitch ,of Atlanta, whom Bacon wanted for this place. Senator Smith was unyielding in his support of Blalock for the position, however, and it is believed that Mr. Bacon did not press his opposition to the appointment. It may be stated that a place will be probably found for Hitch, as both of the senators are anxious that he shall receive recognition from the adminis tration. Senator Bacon is no more anxious to have Hitch rewarded than is his colleague, and it is understood that Senator Smith has assurances from a cabinet office that Hitch will be given a desirable appointment in due course of time.

SENATOR SMITH APPEALS FOR E. POKING AS SUPT. Presented to Postal Officials. Austin oNt Made Chief Clerk as Reported BT BALFH SMITH. WASHINGTON, June 27.—Edward P. King - , of Atlanta, who is an applicant for superintendent of the railway mail service of the fourth division, was presented to postal officials by Senator Hoke Smith this morning. The sena tor made a strong appeal for Mr. King’s promotion to the superintendency and feels that the character of indorse ments presented by Mr. King entitle him to the office. W. L. M. Austin, also of Atlanta, is King’s chief rival for the position and it is believed by Austin's friends that his appointment as chief clerk of ex aminations of the division presages his early promotion to the superintedeney over the head of Mr. King, who is r.ow hi ssuperior in rank. The statement that Mr. Austn had been appointed chief clerk of the di vision, vice Charles Ragert was erro neous, and due to the fact that the two chief clerkships were confused. It is understood, however, that Rager will be relieved as chief clerk of the di vision at Atlanta, but this may not be done until the reorganization of the fourth division is definitely decided upon.

RELIABLE TAILORING C0MPAI I Dept 613Y Reliable Bldg., Chicago, $3.50 Recipe Free For Weak Men Send Name and Address Today—You Can Have It Free and Be Strong and Vig orous. I have in my possesion a prescription for nervous debility, lack of vigor, weakened man hood, failing memory and Tame back, brought on by excesses, unnatural drains, or the fol lies of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their own homes— without any additional help or medicine—that I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility, quickly and quietly should have a copy. So I have determined to send a copy of the preparation free of charge in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope, to any man who will write us for it. This prescription comes from a physician who has made a special study of men, and I am convinced it is the surest-acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together. I think I owe it to my fellowman to aend them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himself with harmful patent medicines, secure what I believe Is the quickest acting restorative, up building, SPOT-TOUCHING? remedy ever de vised, and so cure himself at home quietly and quickly. Just drop me a line like this: Dr. A. E. Robinson, 3771 Luck Bulding, De troit, Mich., and I will send you a copy of this splendid recipe in a plain ordinary en velope, free of charge. A great many doctors would charge $3.00 to $5.00 for merely writing out a prescription like this—but 1 send it en tirely free.— (Advt.)
