Governor Writes to
Sooth Lee Sheriff’s
Wrath-Filled Soul
A letter calculated to bring calm
to the troubled soul of D. R. More
land, Sheriff of Lee County, was sent
Wednesday by Governor Slaton.
Sheriff Moreland had proclaimed
widely and wrathfully that the Gov
ernor, in asking him whether a re
ward should be offered for the arrest
of A D. Oliver’s assassins, was criti
cising him. And by way of reprisal,
he declared the Governor was very
negligent In not offering the reward
without asking advice.
The Governor said that he had in
tended no criticism.
“The appropriation made for re
wards is only $3,000," he explained.
"So long as it is within the power of
the Sheriff and his deputies to cap
ture criminals, the Governor can not
pay out the State’s funds for this
purpose. . Therefore., in conformity
with custom, I wrote to inquire
whether you advised that a reward
be offered. In other cases officers
have written me that no good would
be accomplished by offering a re
ward. Oftentimes the Sheriff wishes
none offered because it would Inter
fere with his plans for obtaining evi
dence to convict. Tf the Governor
acted upon the recommendation of
private parties, he would often be
forced to pay out the limited funds
appropriated, when the criminal was
already apprehended or his location
known."
Brunswick Wives and
Husbands Scored by
Pastor as Immoral
BRUNSWICK, April 7. — That
Brunswick is a loose city and crime
In the high places is allowed to go
unpifnished; that immorality is prev
alent to a degree that is astonishing,
and that the city needs a Billy Sun
day cleaning up, is the opinion of the
Rev. C. A. Jackson, pastor of the First
Methodist Church, who delivered a
sermon of a sensational order to a
crowded congregation last night.
In the presence of this large con
gregation of Brunswick .men and
women, Mr. Jackson attacked local
conditions right and left. He de
clared that he had been in Brunswick
for about sixteen months, and during
that time he had visited nearly every
home in the city, he had been a close
observer of conditions, and he had
arrived at the conclusion that Bruns
wick was a very loose city.
The minister declared that scores
of married men of the city were liv
ing immoral lives, unknown to their
wives, and that many married women
of the city were untrue to their hus
bands, and were frequently visiting
immoral houses in the city.
"Some of the high moguls of your
city,” said he, "make their money by
violating the law, while the little fel
low is given the limit of the law.”

Searcy Clears Two
In Moonshine Trials
Attorney William Searcy, of Griffin,
scored 1,000 Wednesday in defending
two clients in the United States Dis
trict Court charged with moonshlning.
After five minutes the jury freed Ed
Sitnpson, Spalding County negro, who
had a still within 250 yards of his
house and didn’t know it, and in three
minutes cleared Jim R. Head, also of
Spalding. Head apfi^ared without an
attorney and Judge Newnan appointed
Mr. Searcy, who took the case without
any preparation.
Head said he and several friends went
to see the still out of curiosity. When
the agents arrived they fell on their
stomachs, and when the agents came
closer they ran. So fast was Head that

never seen a still before.
Governor Declines to
Interfere in Hanging
Of Negro for Murder
Governor Slaton Wednesday declined
to commute the sentence of Will Bird,
a negro condemned to hang Friday at
Monticello for the death of a negro
woman.
Vigorous efforts were made to save
Bird’s life, the Governor and members
of the Prison Commission being told by
the negro’s advocates that this was the
only case in Jasper County in twenty
years where there had been a con
viction without recommendation for
mercy. Unfair public sentiment was al
leged, as well as the argument that
Bird had sought to shoot his brother-
in-law, Jack Vaughan, killing the wom
an by accident.
“These arguments constitute, no
ground for interference with the verdict
of the jury," commented the Gov
ernor. '‘Many oppose capital punish
ment. but it Is provided by the law of
Georgia as the penalty for murder and
the record justified and practically
compelled the jury to find the offense
one of cold-blooded, premeditated as
sassination. If I commute this sen
tence it would he equivalent to a dec
laration that capital punishment should
never be enforced.”

More Than 110,000 Voluntarily
Take Pledge Until After War.
Absolute Ban Protested.
By HERBERT TEMPLE.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, April 7.—When the Cab
inet met to-day to consider the drink
question more than 110,000 Britons
had pledged themselves to David
Lloyd-George, Chancellor of the Ex
chequer, to "go on the wagon" during
the remainder of the war. Most of
the promises of total abstinence had
been made by letter to the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, who Is the father
of the prohibition movement in Eng
land.
While a number of questions were
on the Cabinet’s program of business
the chief matter was that of prohib
iting or at least limiting the sale of
drink in the United Kingdom.
Reports from various Interests con
cerned In the war upon drink were
reviewed by the Cabinet. It Is un
derstood that advice was received
from experts upon the expediency of
barring drink from the army and
navy.
W hen the Cabinet went Into session
belief was expressed that no definite
decision would be reached at the
meeting, but that preliminary steps
would be taken upon which definite
action could be based later.
Numerous protests against abso
lute prohibition have been sent to
Premier AsqutUi. chiefly from the
manufacturing districts of England
and Scotland.
One of the latest public figures to
enter the fray upon the side of prohi
bition Is Bramwell Booth, head of the
Salvation Army.

Where WE Stand
Successful local politicians have criticized recently our frank
dealing with the public. They’ve said we should be reticent about
our affairs—perhaps even secretive; that we should conceal our
interest, proceed by indirection, work through undisclosed agen
cies.
They’ve said you're prejudiced anyhow; that you’re not con
cerned with right or wrong, merits or demerits; that you want
merely to know where our interests are, in order to decide against
them; that if we want anything done, we must appear to oppose it
WE DON’T BELIEVE THAT!
We KNOW we’re right. The great majority of the public is
honest, fair-minded, responsive toward frankness and openness.
There’s prejudice, we realize; but we believe it’s founded on
ignorance.
WE KNOW WED BE WRONG IF WE SUBMIT TO UN
JUST ATTACK, IF WE TRY TO COVER OUR MOTIVES
AND WORK SURREPTITIOUSLY FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE!
ARE OUR RIGHTS.
’’Rights?” Yes; OF COURSE we’re got ’em.
And because we believe they’re JUST rights, and because we
believe you’re fair, we feel no hesitancy about arguing them to you
openly, above-board.
FAITH: THAT'S what we’ve got in you.
. It's what gives us the rock-solid foundation we stand on. With
out it we’d be lost We wouldn't know what to do. WE
COULDN’T KEEP ON SERVING YOU CONSCIENTIOUSLY
IF WE LACKED IT.
There are men who profess to doubt whatever we say. ‘‘There’s
a Joker in it,” they'll tell you. Queer chaps! They’re suspicious
of day itself. They see duplicity, hypocrisy, everywhere
We beheve when you do decide against us, perhaps ifs due to
our own neglect Maybe we didn't show you our side clearly
enough. Maybe if we’d informed you a little more fully you’d have
understood our position.
We do NOT believe you’d do us deliberate or even cureless
injustice.
We’d rather suffer THAT, though, THAN BETRAY OUR SELF-
RESPECT BY HIDING OUR INTEREST. .
That's the sort of confidence we’ve got in you.
grail!
