ALABAMA MILITIA
REMAINE IN GIRARD
Columbus, Ga., May 23.—The Ala
bama military prepared for their sec
ond week’s occupation of Girard by
establishing more permanent headquar
ters in designated buildings and in
stalling a regluar army kitchen, indi
cating that they will be on the job
for some time yet.
In the meantime the search for the
whiskey continues, although there
were no sensational discoveries today.
During Sunday night the Manhattan
Club, in Girard, was raided and forty
five bottles of whiskey buried in the
grctind in the cellar were unearthed.
The list of deputies taking part in
the searching and seizure were re
duced today. There was at one time
eighty-three names on the lists.
It is undeérstood reports have been
in circulation to the effect that the
raiders have bhoth been drinking and
selling the seized whiskey. Law Agent
M. S. Baughn tloday offered a re
ward of $lO6 for evidence that either
a deputy of a militiaman drank or sold
any of the captured liquor. T B
Middlebrooks of Birmingham and C.
M. Haszh of Chattanooga, revenue of
ficers, have arrived in the city and
are making investigation for the gov
ernment in connection with the whis
ky seizure.
An interesting repert in circulation
as to the origin of the campaign
against Girard whisky folks is to the
ccect that certain citizens and prop
erty owners of Russel county, indig
nant over the situation at Girard,
went to Montgomery, conferred with
the atiorney general of Alabama and
offered him a check of §53,600 with
which to bear the expense of raid
ing Girard. The check was not ac
cepted but the circulation rumor car
ries the full details of the alleged in
cident.

HE KILLED HiS WIFE
AND THEN KILLED SELF
Danville, Va., May 23.—Willard S.
Carter and wife were found dead in
2 pool of blood at their home in Dan
ville this morning. Carter had a pis
tel ball through his right temple and
Mrs. Carter was shol twice in the back
of the head. A nickel-plated gistol
lay near them. While mystery as yet

a case of murder followed by suicide,
due probably to mental disturbance.

preminent in scciety and owners of a
beautiful home. Their death has been
a shocking guestion to people of this
city.
MOB VIOLENCE IS
SCORED BY BAPTISTS
Asheville, N. C., May 23.—The
Southern Baptist convention at its
closing session here today, adopted
resolutions asking for the enactment
of a national prohibitien law, urging
that the District of Columbia be made
prohibition territory and requesting
better police protection for public
speakers. The resolution referring tc
nublic speakers declared that “it is
alarming to note the frequency with
which: freedom of speech and of the
press is being interfered with by mobs
in our cities and towns.”
It was explained that while the pro
test against mobs had reference chief
ly to mob violence in various parts
of the country against persons lec
turing on religious subjects it ex
press the convention’'s opposition te
“mob violence, by whatsoever and
against whomsoever directed.”
In the course of the debate on this
subject speakers denounced the bill
pending i Congress to make the
Postmaster Gereral the “‘supreme cen
sor of the denomination and seccular
press “by giving him authority to re
fuse use of the mail to publications
attacking relizion. Another bill pend
ing in congress, which it was declar
ed would give a judge in the District
of Columbia the right to ‘*‘consign
without trial,” a child to “any home”
or other institutions he saw fit, also
came in for censure . Neither of the
subjects were included in tae reso
iutions, however.
“Freedom of speech and press” was
the keynote of a number of speeches
and the Rev. Dr. Len Broughton of
Knoxville took occasion to declare
that while he would not curtail free
dom of the press, he would be pleased
to see some method adopted by which
newspapers in the vicinity in which
a “sensational crime is committed
might not try the case 'and bring in
the verdict” before the case came up
in court.
The prohibition question came up
under the report of the committee on
prohibition, and its adoption put
Southern Baptists on record as ‘“‘un
alterably opposed to the liquor traf
fic, gambling dens, dens of vice and
child labor and the sweat shop.”
The convention meets next year in
New Orleans, May 16-17, and will out
line the work of its boards this year.
