6 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.

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 WINDER BOY IS DROWNED AT WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH WINDER, GA., Aug. 1. Charles Al mand, son of Dr C It.

NEVIN. 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.

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.
