INTERVENTION BY
U.S.ISDEMANDEO
Refugees Continue to Bring to
Border Tales of Barbarities
by Mexican Rebels.
EL PASO, TEXAS, Aug. 1 De
mands that the United States Inter
vene in Mexico and protect the lives
and property of American citizens are
being forwarded to Washington by
every mail.
Refugees who ar-ived today stated
that conditions are daily growing worse
south of the border; that rebels are
looting and burning, and that the Ma
dero forces are entirely inadequate to
preserve order.
The situation is expected to be
brought to a crisis by the execution of
two American* near tlananea. Sonora
They are believed to have been hanged
in order to force this country to Inter
vene.
Two more train loads of American
refugees from the rebel zones arrived
during the night in El Paso, mostly all
from the Monnon colonies of Pacheco,
Chuichupa and Garsea. Isolated from
the railroad, they had to make long,
tedious Journeys by wagon and on
horseback to reach the train. Three
babies were born in wagons on the trip.
The arrival of these additional refu
gees, about 700, brings the total of
newly arrived refugees up to 2,500, all
Americans, who have fled for their
lives.
Many of the arriving refugees of last
night were men from the Pearson mills
at Madera and Pearson, where the
plants have been forced to close down.
The rebel victory over General Blan
co at OJitos in western Chihuahua on
Monday was of short use, for the fed
eral command of Gene.ral Badjinea, re
inforcing Blanco, was able to turn the
tide and drive the rebels back Into
Casas Grandes, according to reports
from federal sources.

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
Governor Brown's veto of the Tip
pins bill may have disappointed and
distressed some people, but it should
have surprised no one.
As plainly and as unequivocally as
mortal man might say anything, he
said in his fight for the governorship
last fall that he would do the very
thing he did do yesterday.
The Tippins bill was distinctly ar.
Issue in the last fight for the governor
ship. The issue was made, and the
governor accepted it on definite and
specific terms. The legislature had the
Tippins bill before It when Governor
Brown was a candidate.
Judge Russell said he would veto the
bill if sent to him, in the event of his
election, unconditionally. Pope Brown
said he would sign it. Governor Brown
said he would veto it, unless it carried
a referendum to the people.
There never was any reason to think
any one of the candidates would do oth
erwise than kefep iris definite word of
honor to the people of Georgia, once
their opinion was registered.
The legislature distinctly refused to
attach the referendum clause, after
Governor Brown had won out, and It
should be not the least surprised today
that It. has a vetoed and a practically
defunct Tippins bill on Its hands.
The situation seems absurdly simple
—-Governor Brown has done exactly
what he promised he would do.
The point Is. Governor Brown's idea
received a majority indorsement of the
people, as expressed In their county
unit votes.
"Little Joe" neither begged the
question nor anybody's pardon!
William J. Nunnally, of Rome, has
announced himself a candidate for the
house from Floyd, and expects to be
one of that county’s three members in
the next legislature.
"Joe" Nunnally served two terms as
solicitor general of the Rome judicial
circuit several years ago, and has filled
an unexpired term as judge of the city
court of Floyd county. He is well
known throughout north Georgia, and
is particularly strong In Floyd county.
He is the son of Rev. J. H. Nunnally,
one of the best known and most gen
erally beloved Baptist ministers in the
state.
Judge Nunnally is distinctly the sort
of material from which high-class leg
islators are made and his election from
Floyd will be a matter of advantage to
the state.
It evidently Is going to be neces
sary to keep the idea well in mind
that, primarily anyway, the fight in
the Tenth congressional district is
a fight between Fleming and Hard
wick, not Watson and Hardwick.
There are some mean members of the
present legislature.
Representative Claude Payton re
cently made a particularly eloquent
speech on the floor of the house.
The gentleman from Worth is an ora
torical looking pt r. on. He is adorned
with extensive locks of a rippling and
wavy sort, sometimes described as am
brosial. As a matter of fact, he is quite
a handsome man. and had he been an
actor Instead of a legislator, he un
questionably would have been a matinee
hero.
The day Mr. Payton was speaking, he
talked his subject up one side and down
the other. He dressed It In rhetorical
grandeur and garlanded it with ever
greens. and so on.
After the gentleman had been at It
for some thirty minutes, and just as he
was reaching forth for a climax of par
ticular impressiveness, Mr. McElreath
of Fulton arose and inquired:
"Would the gentleman mind §tatlng
which side of this question he is on?"
That was a pretty mean jolt, too —
but It never worried Mr. Payton. Ho
knew which side he was on. if the gen
tleman from Fulton didn't.
The congregation will please rise and
sing the doxology!
Mr. Wohlwender of Muscogee has at
last prevailed upon the house rules

committee tn put senate bill No. 88 on
the calendar for a fixed date!
For weary weeks .Mr. Wohlw f ender
has sought to browbeat or persuade the
steam roller manipulators into giving
this pet measure a chance—at least, a
run for its money before the house.
He has made a number of speeches
on the floor, with senate bill No. 88 as
his text, and the language he has em
ployed, particularly with reference to
the rules committee and its arbitrary
meanness and general all around cuss
edness, has hardly been fit to print.
It had about reached the point in the
house where Wohlwender's every cry of
"Mr. Speaker!” was terrifying in the
extreme. Every time It sounded, the
rest of the house felt sure that Wohl
wender was going to read that old riot
act all over again to "Bob" Hardeman
and his outfit!
Something byway of light finally
penetrated the sometimes seemingly
thick intelligence of the rules commit
tee, and simultaneously, perhaps, a
symptom of kindness got into its heart,
for It agreed yesterday that the time
was at hand when Wohlwender either
must be placated or assassinated—so
old No. 88 goes on the calendar Mon
day, and Wohlwender will not have any
good and sufficient excuse for deliver
ing that terrible arraignment any more!
The rules committee is firmly con
vinced. at last, that it is an awful thing
to have Wohlwender on its trail —that
there can be no peace for it. indeed,
until he has been permitted to catch up!
"Little Joe's” disinclination to
call a spade something else than a
spade grows more and more marked
as the years go by.

HIGH COURT MAY
GET SENATE HOW
Smith and Brown Appointments
Tangle Goes on With No
Prospect of Abatement.
The state supreme court may be the
only agency that can decide the senate
tangle over the Smith-Brown appoint
ments on the board of education. Since
Governor Brown recalled his appoint
ments the senate has been confronted
by the unusual situation of having no
appointments to confirm.
in the meantime the Hoke Smith
members of the board will go merrily
along as ad interim nominations, so the
state will not be minus a board of edu
cation, no matter how muddled the sen
ate may become.
According to the best information,
the law says that the governor shall
appoint the members of the board of
education. The senate is given only
confirmation power by the statute, no
matter what powers it arrogates to
Itself in the present row.
The general theory is that the Smith
appointments are not before the senate
and never have been. It is true the
senate has the records of the executive
office, but the law maintains that the
governor must send in his appoint
ments for confirmation. The statute
entitles the senate to no initiative tn
the matter. It can not call on the gov
ernor for certain nominations. It must
take what the governor sends in and
approve, reject or fail to consider en
tirely.
It is barely possible that any action
by the senate in the face of the present
situation means a questioning of its
authority in court.
