EFFORT TO FIRE
BAHNSEN FAILS
IN FINAL SESSION
Although the legislative Investiga
tion of the office of the state veteri
narian, Dr. Peter F. Bahnson, was
one of the sensational auxiliary de
velopments of the 1920 session of the
general assembly, the effort to re
move him from office on the charge
of misconduct failed after a strenu
ous parliamentary battle waged In
the house on the last night of the
session. The result of the whole se
ries of events is, therefore, to con
tinue Dr. Bahnsen In office and In full
charge of his department, while the
findings of the legislative committee
and the evidence Introduced at the
various hearings will be turned over
to the general assembly when it con
venes in 1921.
An effort on the part of Repre
sentative Green B. Williams, of
Worth county, to introduce an Im
peachment resolution during the
closing stages of the session Wed
nesday, failed of accomplishment.
The rules committee of the house
refused to allow such a resolution a
place on the calendar and a fight was
made on the floor to overriae the Com
mittee and bring the Bahnsen matter
up regardless of all other considera
tions. Before a vote could be taken
on the question of overriding the
yules committee, a resolution intro
duced by Mr. Johnson, of Bartow,
•was adopted almost unanimously,
turning the findings of the probe
committee and the evidence it had
collected over to the 1921 general as
sembly. This action composed the
situation.
The Bahnsen controversy came to
the surface in the house almost as
soon as that body convened for the
Wednesday night session. Repre
sentative Knight, of Berrien, precipi
tated the fight by inquiring whether
the rules committee intended to al
low the impeachment resolution to
come to the floor so that the whole
matter might be threshed out.
Four heated meetings of the rules
commitee had been held during tjie
day and Mr. Knight on several oc
casions had left the meetings out
of exasperation and resentment at
the action of the committee in keep
ing the impeachment resolution off
the calendar. When he opened up
the whole situation on the floor of
the house by his inquiry directed at
the speaker, the parliamentary battle
was on and for an hour and a half
the maneuvering was of a most in
tricate and complicated character.
Finally the resolution of Mr. John
son, of Bartow, offered a solution
of the affair that was welcomed by
all concerned and the partisan de
bate was brought to a close with the
unanimous passage of the resolution
leaving the settlement of the Bahn
sen controversy to the 1921 general
assembly. - < xxx. a
Two Beports Submitted
The joint legislative committee,
after a series of hearings lasting for
more than two weeks, brought in
majority and minority reports. The
majority report, signed by six of the
eight members of the committee,
fouid Dr. Barnsen guilty of having
used about SI,BOO of the state s
money to pay express charges on
shipments of hog cholera serum pur
chased bv himself from his own per
sonal funds to be sold and distri
buted by him to the farmers of
Georgia. Dr. Bahnsen was also
charged with having taken a profit
of approximately $6,000 on serum
sales during the past four years.
The minority report, signed by
Senator P. G. Veazey and Represen
tative W. H. Lasseter, of Dooly
county, denied Dr. Bahnsen’s guilt
on any count and Insisted that the
state veterinarian was obliged to use
his own personal funds to purchase
serum in the: absence of authority to
use the state’s money for this pur
pose.
The members of the joint commit
tee were Senators Barrett, of the
Thirty-first; Clements, of the Forty
fifth, and Veazey, of the Nineteenth;
Representative Williams, of Worth;
Palmour, of Hall; Hollingsworth, of
Screven; Lasseter, of Dooly, and
Hendrix, of Fulton.
Commenting upon the majority re
port, Dr. Bahnsen issued the follow
ing statement:
Bahnsen’s Statement
“I consider the majority report very un
fair. I am put before the people of the
state as guilty of misusing state funds in
payment of express charges on serum ship
ped out by me. Whether this was wrong
or not depends upon construction, of the
law and I have support of some of the
best lawyers in the state In my interperta
tlon of the law. The report doesn’t take
this Into consideration, but the majority
of the committee has made its own inter
pretation of the law and found me guilty
under that.
•‘ln regard to the profits I have made
on sales of serum, their charge that I made
a profit of $6,000 Is one which I admitted
without hesitation. My profits during the
last three years have amounted to $6,000,
but the serum market is such that a profit
must be made in order to cover the in
evitable losses. Right now I am $6,000
ahead; inside of a month I may be behind
the game. I have in my possession 50,000
cubic centimeters of serum which has spoiled
although it was purchased from a reliable
concern and is supposed to me good until
September 17. My loss on this lot of serum
will be from SBOO to SI,OOO.
“At present I am under contract to buy
1,000,000 c. c. Prices of serum declined
after I made the contract and I am afraid
I will lose nearly $4,000 on that lot. The
investigation happened to come at a time
when I was ahead of the game and I ad
mitted how much profit I had made, because
I have always conducted my sales of serum
openly and without any attempt to conceal
what I was doing.
“I have attempted to sarve the farmers
and stockmen of the state and my enemies
are persisting in their efforts to discredit
me.”
Severe Rainstorm
In Waycross Section
WAYCROSS, Ga., Aug. 12.—The
merging of two storms in this city
Wednesday caused one of the
heaviest and most destructive rains
that Waycross has seen in many
years. Not only was Waycross hard
hit by the storm, but reports from
surrounding communities show that
a near cloudburst occurred.
The storm threw pedestrians Into
a panic, coming upon them sudden
ly, and traffic was curtailed for
some time. ■ Trees In all parts of
this section were blown down, and
winds played havoc with telegraph
and telephone lines. Thousands of
dollars’ loss will be suffered by the
farmers throughout this section, and
it is feared that the potato crop will
be severely Injured.
Mexican Escadrille
To Attack Cantu
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 12.—The first
escadrille of the Mexican air serv
ice is to be brought into action to
put down the rebellion of Esteban
Cantu, governor of Lower California,
according to an official bulletin Is
sued today. The escadrille, which
now is stationed at Jimenez, Chi
huahua, has been ordered to Irapuato,
state of Guanajuato. There It will
be enlarged into a mixed flotilla, con
sisting of four reconnoitering ma
chines, four pursuit planes and two
bomb ers.
Another Arrest in
Columbus Murder Case
COLUMBUS, Ga., Aug. 12.—An
other arrest In connection with the
murder of /Mrs. Mattle Wells, aged
fortune "teller of Columbus, whose
body was found with face and head
badly mutilated on the afternoon of
July 15 in her home here, took place
late Tuesday, when local officers
jailed Charles Creamer alias Frank
Jones, a cotton mill worker, on the
charge of murder.
The defendant, a resident of Phoe
nix City, Ala., declares he is in
nocent of any connection with the
crime and insists that he can es
tablish an alibi at the proper time, in
that he wasn’t in the city at the
time of the killing. Just what evi
dence the officers have is not made
public, and it will not be known
until the preliminary hearing soon
to be determined on.

My Own Dear Sweetheart:
Well, dear, here I am writing
you again; don’t know why, but
I just can’t help it. Oh, dear,
how I wish you were here now.
Oh, what a loving I would give
you. Gee, I certainly had some
narrow escape tonight. I started
in the Ansley and who should I
see but dad and he is the last
person in the world I want to
see until after he goes on his
trip, for I certainly don’t want
to leave you and if I stick around
where they can get sight of me
they are going to make me go
with them.
Gee, I certainly hated to see
you leave me tonight. If you
would only come up tomorrow
afternoon I-would be the hap
piest girl in the wide world.
Dear, you just can’t imagine how
much I care for you. Don’t know
what is the matter, but I want •
you near me all of the time.
I don’t know what is the mat
ter with me tonight. I just can’t
go to sleep and it Is about 2:30
now. .... Gee,
wouldn’t I like to have your
arms wrapped around me now.
I can almost imagine they are
around me now.
Well, dearest, I will close as I
don’t know of anything else to
tell you unless it is how much
I love you and that you know.
So I am closing, looking forward
to Monday, so be sure and come
up. Here’s sweet dreams to you
and a great big good night kiss.
Don’t forget the little girl in At
lanta who is waiting for you, bye
bye.
Yours

Dearest Sweetheart:
Dearest, well, here I am writ
ing you again after seeing you
this afternoon. Not satisfied
eh? No, it will take lots of you
to satisfy. . . . Gee, but lam
awfully greedy, am I not? But
I just can’t help it. Oh, how I
wish you were here now. Three
guesses. I wish I could be near
you all of the time, and have you
all to myself. I don’t want vsry
much, do I? Well, dearest, I
looked for a place to move this
afternoon, but didn’t find a
place. Have a promise ‘ of a
very nice place I think by the
first, but that is too long.
It is out on Mercer Avenue, to
wards College Park. I was out
looking for a place all afternoon
and you can bet I am some tired
tonight. Dear, when are you
coming back into town, soon, 1
hope. I wish you would come
tomorrow, but I know you won’t
because I want you to so bad.
Dear, I bought me a pair of
shoes, a waist and some under
clothes and I certainly needed
them for you know I left all 1
had when I came away from the
worst place this side of the bad
place. Well, dearest, will stop
for this as I have no news to
write. So answer soon and come
sooner. I haven’t been out to see
Hubby yet. Some model wife,
am I not? With garages full
love and a hundred kisses in
every Ford for you.
Yours forever,

Dearest" Sweetheart:
Well, dearest, here I am keeping
my promise by writing you and
I certainly hope that you will
write me. Dearest, I wish you
would write me every day, for
you don’t know how much I
want to hear from you. Gee, I
wish you were here with me now.
I have the nicest fire and the
room is all warm and cozy. Gee,
wouldn’t I enjoy it more than
anything else in this wide world
if you were only here.
Oh, wasn’t I glad to see you
this afternoon. I just wanted to
grab you and give you an awful
hug and kiss, but it was very
impolite for me to kiss my
uncle. Ha, it’s a poke, isn't it.
Oh, I can hardly wait until Sun
day to see you again. Oh, how I
wish you were mine and no one
else’s, I would be the happiest
woman on earth then. I hope
you will be on pretty soon.
Dear, I hope you love me just
half as much as I do you. I
really didn’t think I could care
so much for anyone. Dear, I just
di dget to the store in time to ”
get my garters qnd a few other
small articles needed. I went
back around to see if I could see
you, but you had already' gone.
Well, sweetheart, I will bring
this to an end, as I am very
sleepy, don’t know of anything
new. Sweet dreams to you and
hoping to see you soon, good
night until Sunday.

Dearest Sweetheart:
Well, dear, here I am keeping
my promise as usual. Gee, I
have just woke’. . . Gee, can’t
imagine what makes me feel so
bad. I think if you were here
that I would feel better. Do
you, dearest? Mjr, but I certain
ly hated to leave you yesterday
or last night. I didn’t think I
could really care for any one as
I care for you. I thought I
loved my Hubby, but thinking
was all. Dearest, I sure am
proud of my little watch. I
think It is the nicest little watch
just because you gave it to me,
and It is the first thing you have
bought and gave to me. This
certainly is a nice day. With
you was here so I could enjoy
it. The old lady of the house
was sitting in the hall as I came
in last night. She never spoke
nor said a word as I passed, but
she gave me one of these looks
that you can almost understand.
I haven’t saw her this morning.
Don’t know what she will say.
Well, dearest, I will close, as I
think if I get dressed and go get
some breakfast I will feel bet

don’t say anything, for I just
can’t help it. Well, dear, I got
home all O. K. Was in town at

with me now. My, but you are
the dearest person on earth.
Gee, I can’t hardly wait until

didn’t ever dream I could love

more so than hubby. Gee you

and a dozen carnations, some

WAR PREVENTION
URGED BY COX IN
OPENING ADDRESS
CAMP PERRY. Ohio, Aug. 13.
Honorable prevention of war by “the
arbitration of reason rather than of
force” was urged by Governor Cox
here Thursday in an address opening
the Democratic presidential nomi
nee’s national speaking tour.
Governor Cox did not make the
League of Nations the text of his
speech today at the national rifle
contests, but he emphasized the toll
of '.he war, and declared the peo
p’ fl of the world now seek peaceful
nx>des of settlement.
“I recognize,” he said to an au
dience of national guardsmen, reg
ular soldiers and civilians, “that in
a sense you are assembled here for
the purpose of increasing th effi
ciency of our military strength, and
yet I am convinced that the great
mass of our soldiers is united in
purpose and prayer, to prevent wars
in the future, if It can be honor
ably done.
“There will always be a national
guard in the states, if for no other
reason that domestic defense and the
military arm of the federal govern
ment will be maintained, but the
hope that vast expenditures for
armaments are a thing of the past
possesses every home in America,
while the common impulse that
moves the great mass of people
world-wide is inspired by the vision
of peace and the settlement of con
troversy by the arbitrament of rea
son rather than of force.
DORSEY MAKES
FIRST CAMPAIGN
SPEECH IN ROME
ROME, Ga., Aug. 12.—Governor
Hugh M. Dorsey made three speeches
in Rome Wednesday, only one of
which was of a political nature. He
spoke for about fifteen minutes at
a community barbecue in the morn
ing, touching on the senatorial race
and asking the suffrage of his
hearers.
At the Rotary club at 1 o’clock, he
spoke along educational lines. No
reference was made to politics. Most
of the time was taken up by Ro
tarians in boosting Rome and Floyd
county, and in telling the governor
about the resources and advantages
of the city and county.
At 2 o’clock ,in the afternoon, the
governor was tendered a reception
by Joseph Attaway post of the Amer
ican Legion at its club rooms. Many
ladles were present. At 4:30 o’clock
the governor spoke at a Legion barbe
cue in the ball park. The speaking
was in the grandstand and rain was
f billing.
The governor devoted his remarks
to the war, declaring that it was in
evitable. He praised America s part
in it and the achievements of the
American soldiery. He paid a. trib
ute to the administration and its ac
complishments.
Laurens County Post

Watson and Hardwick
DUBLIN, Ga., Aug. 12.—Laurens
county post, No. 17, of the Ameri
can Legion, at its monthly meeting
Monday night adopted resolutions
condemning in no uncertain terms
the alleged attacks made upon the
Ameriean Legion by Thomas E. Wat

CORDELE, Ga., Aug. 12. —John B.
Ryals post, American Legion, com
prising ex-service men of the world
war residing in Crisp county, met Sat
urday night and passed resolutions
indorsing Atlanta past, No. 1, in its
defense of the legion against the al
alleged false and vicious attacks of
Thomas E. Watson and Thomas W.
Hardwick.
The resolution was brief and to
the point. It was gotten up by a
determined set of men, and has been
forwarded to the Atlanta post mem
bers.
COLUMBUS POST OPPOSES
WATSON AND HARDWICK
COLUMBUS, Ga., Aug. 12.—That
the Columbus post of the American
Legion will have a big hand in the
fight for Americanism in opposing
the candidacy of T. E. Watson and
T. W. Hardwick for office in the
coming primary, is made plain by
resolution, which was unanimously
adopted by the post at its monthly
session here last night.
Bull Fighter Returns
After Losing Nerve
VICTORIA, Spain. Gallo, the
bullfighter, made his first appearance
here today since a fight five years
ago, following which the public tried
do lynch him for inferior work, and
he left the arena under the escort of
soldiers. Although he appeared
nervous today at the beginning of
his contests he displayed excellent
ability and disposed of two bulls.
Senchez Mejias, Belmonte and Gallo
starred in the order named in meet
ing bulls of the Antonio Perez herd
14 the first corrida at the national
festival. Each killed two bulls in
brilliant style and all worked well
with the banderillas and in their
preparations.
Gambling Casino Like
Monte Carlo for Cuba
NEW YORK, Aug. 5.—A gambling

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 14, 1918.
Dearest Hubby.
Well, dear, here I am writing
you as I promised, but am not
home, as I said I was going. I
decided I would stay up town and
watch the folks for awhile to
pass the time away, as I could
not be with you. Oh, dear, how
I hated to see you go away to
night. Gee, I sure will be glad
when day after tomorrow comes,
as I can see you again. Oh, but
that’s an awfully long time. I
sure am mad at the old lady
Patterson for saying that I was
not at home when I could have
been with you all of that time.
Dear, you don’t know how proud
I am of my little car. Gee, it’s a
peach of a car. Well, dear, I must
close, as I don’t know of any
more news to write only how
much I love you and words will
not express the full extent of my
love. So here’s hoping I see
you before Wednesday.
Your loving wife,

VILLA TELLS OF
HIS ESCAPE FROM
PERSHING’S MEN
SAN PEDRO, Coahuila. Mexico, via
Laredo Junction, Aug. 12.—(8y the
Associated Press.) —Francisco Villa,
surrendered bandit of northern Mex
ico, was in a talkative mood today.
Choosing the veranda of the ranch
house of Madero El Cuatr, near here,
at the conclusion of a dinner where
he and his more prominent bandit
aides were the conspicuous guests,
the ex-chieftain occupied more than
an hour in which he elaborated on
the policies he now deems expedient
for himself and his associates to pur
sue, and held his hearers intent with
tales of his maneuvers which kept
him safe from capture at the hands
of the Pershiag punitive expedition
into Mexico 10 1916.
Villa once more confirmed reports
that he was wounded. He declared,
however, that his wound came dur
ing a fight with Carranzistas within
five days after the Pershing expedi
tion entered Mexico, and that his leg
was also broken in three places. His
wound and suffering, he said, came to
him in the midst of his efforts to
organize a great band of followers
to attack the Americans. He de
clared he had picked 1,200 faithful
followers to accomplish the task of
recruiting, dividing them into groups
of two, three, four and five men, all
of which were dispatched throughout
Chihuahua to spread propaganda in
tended to arrange a great uprising
of citizens against the punitive ex
pedition.
He was confident, he insisted, that
he could have equipped at least 8,-
000 of these recruits with rifles, the
others to carry knives two feet long.
“I never left the state of Chihua
hua while Pershing was in the coun
try,” boasted the chieftain.
“After being wounded two of my
cousins carried me to a cav<» in the
mountains. The cave was located In
the center of a perpendicular cliff
which rose fifty meters from a brook
on the level plain below.”
Villa said he lived in this cave for

He took particular pains to em

of a telegram from Madero ordering
Huerta to send him to Mexico City.

Warrants Issued
In Alleged Whisky»
Ring in Baltimore
BALTIMORE, Aug. 12.—Another
sensation in the already sensational
Vincenti whisky case was sprung to
day when an operative of the depart
ment of justice here; a United States
internal revenue agent, and a whole
sale liquor dealer were arrested on
federal warrants sworn to by John
Person, prohibition enforcement of
ficer, who is in charge of the Vin
centi investigation.
Ten more men, it is said, will be
arrested. Already the arrests in the
Vincenti case with the four today,
number fifty.
The men apprehended today are:
Joseph Sainsbury, veteran depart
ment of justice operative.
John Whitehead, prohibition en
forcement agent, who several weeks
ago shot and killed a man during
a raid on a saloon in Huron, Ohio.
Thomas Baker, an internal revenue
agent.
Sol Richards, former wholesale
liquor dealer of Washington, who
has an office here.
The names of the men sought in
the extended ramifications of the big
alleged whisky ring have not been
divulged.
Among the charges brought up in
connection with the case is the one
that plans had been laid for a con
spiracy whereby whisky was to be
removed from bonded warehouses on
forged certificates, and it is alleged
that the man who handled the monqy
received SIOO,OOO from forftier saloon
keepers in exchange for promises to
deliver the liquor.

He Should Have Stopped,
Looked and Listened
The most lurid of the Mexican war
correspondents cannot hold a search
light to the man who tells this one
in the Potter Kansan:
“Some one had told him about the
tarantulas and centipedes, and
ever thereafter he was greatly wor
ried. Awakening one bright moon
light night and noticing what he
supposed was a bunch of terrible
tarantulas perched on the footboard
of his bed, he grabbed his gun, took
deliberate aim and fired.
“A shriek, a leap from the bed and
blood trickling from his foot told
what had happened. He had mis
taken his own toes for a tarantula
family and had blown one of them
to atoms.
“The worst part of it was, it did
not happen to be the one that had
the corn on It.”

Legislature Fails to Pass
Highway Bills; Important
School Measures Enacted
Although the legislature failed to
pass the highway bond issue bill on
account of the wangle created by
the Knight resolution, which sought
to direct the state highway board
to pro-rafte the automobile fund
among the several counties until
bonds were issued, its record other
wise for the 1920 session was quite
to its credit.
In the educational line, tne leg
islature passed a constitutional
amendment authorizing appropria
tions for state and county high
schools, ” and a bill appropriating
$21,000 to match the state of
Georgia’s share of the federal fund
for the rehabilitation of persons in
jured in industry, as provided by the
act of congress which Senator Hoke
Smith put through in connection
with the rehabilitation of disabled
soldiers. The high school amend
ment to the constitution is for the
purpose of removing all questions as
to the legality of appropriations for
state and county high schools. Dr.
M. L. Brittain, state school super
intendent, regards the two measures
as being of real worth and sub
stance.
In the agricultural line the legis
lature passed the bill authorizing
the formation of co-operative organ
izations to market and deal in farm
products, the bill to place the duties
of state warehoue commissioner in
the hands of the director of the state
bureau of markets, and the bill re
quiring all cotton transactions to
be had according to the United
States standards of cotton grades.
Representative Anderson, of Jen
kins, an active friend of agricul
tural legislation, put through the
co-operative bill in the house, and
is receiving many congratulations
upon his good work. It was backed
by the Farmers’ union of the state
and nation and farmers and fruit
growers generally. Commissioner J.

Gas Company Refuses
To Fill Balloons at
World Air Race Meet
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—The Citi
zens’ Gas company, the concern
which supplies this city with illumi
nating gas, will not furnish gas for
the national and international bal
loon races scheduled for this city
September 11 and October 13, it was
announced today.
In a letter to Theodore E. -Meyers,
manager of the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway, where the races are slated
to be held, J. Dorsey Forrest, presi
dent of the gas company, stated his
company was unwilling to furnish
even 1,000 circle feet of gas for the
race under the present condition of
fuel shortage.
"There is no city in the United
States thit should, under present con
ditions, undertake to provide gas for
this purpose," said Mr. Forrest. He
declared the use of coal and oil for
such purposes would be "criminal.”
Mr. Meyers has telegraphed the of
ficials of the Aero Club of America
in New York of the action of the gas
company.

Mr. Dodson, the “Liver
Tone” Man, Tells the
Treachery of Calomel
Calomel loses you a day! You
know what calomel is. It‘s mercury;
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never
be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all. knocked out ano
believe you need a dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for a few cents a large
bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone, whlcn
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute for
qalomel. It is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can pof salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It can not be •
trusted any more than a leopard or a
wild-cat. Take Dodson’s Liver Tone
which straightens you right up and "
makes you feel fine. Give it to the
children because it is perfectly harm
less and doesn’t gripe.—(Advt)
Speedy Relief
From Habitual
Constipation
The liver is the largest and most
Important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headaches, indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected imme
diately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, wtaich over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system
the impurities that the lives and
kidneys have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you nave
to take purgatives every few
nights. Calomel or other ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys nnd
blood while treating the liver, vou
would put your entire system in
order and freqent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip
tion for many years, being used bv
nls patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, ane
you may eat anything you lik<
While taking it.
Get a large tin box from youi
druggist or dealer for 25c, under his
personal guarantee that it will give
{enef, tone up the liver, stimulatf
the kidneya to healthy action and
thereby purify the blood. If youi
aealer will not supply you, it will b(
mailed direct by the Hitchcock Med
icine Co., Atlanta, Ga., upon receipt
