bers of the congressional reception
committee, preparations for the Inau
guration ceremonies March 4, practi
cally will have been completed. Major
dun. Leonard Wood, grand marshal of
the inaugural procession, announced
today that everything connected with
the parade had been attended to.
One feature of the Inauguration
ceremonies will be the prominent part
taken by the collegians from Prince
ton and the University of Virginia.
When President-elect Wilson leaves
his hotel to go to the White House
for his ride up Pennsylvania avenue
to the capital, he will pass down a
lane of college men. one rank being
composed of Princetonlans and the
other of members of the southern uni
versity which gave him his degree In
law.
The committee has made arrange
ments to handle the greatest pa-ade
that ever marched down the capital’s
principal avenue. Prospects today
were that at least 50,000 persons would
be In line.

the fact that the anti’s had declared
that their chiefs had been recruited

The antis can have all the silk

to such a distinction. Our movement

nied reports that leading women are
coming from New York. Philadelphia
and Baltimore to the big antl-suffrag-
Ists’ rally on board a “million dollar

“Who ever got the Idea,” she said,
"must have thought we are going to
try to rival the suffragists. We are
not trying to ronduot this campaign
by traveling along parallel lines.
While they delight In ‘hiking,’ we are
satisfied simply with arriving on (ho
scene in the usual manner and not
even a ‘million dollar special' could
tempt us.”
Although the auffraglst and antl

apart, members of the two camps

Nothing new that’s worthy escapes their notice. Isn’t it reasonable therefore for you to beliew

Leadership in the gathering of goods and selling to you helpfully and fairly are the feanYxnai

PROTEST OVER
LINE OF MARCH
Plans of CMef Maflfhal Inaugu
ration Parade May Be Chang
ed By Congress.
Washington, D. C.—There la a pos
sibility that the Inauguration may
again be made the subject of debate
on the floor of congress. This time
the bone of contention would be the
line of march of the parade. Accord
ing to the present plan those who oc
cupy the stands that have been built
on the east side of the capltol will
see only a portion of the parade and
the Joint congroeslonal committee on
the inauguration feels that this detail
should be rearranged.
The plans for the line of march
have been in the hands of MaJ. Gen.
Wood, grand marshal of the parade,
and he has decreed that the civic sec
’tlon of the parade shall mobilize on
the cross streets to the west of the
capltol and fall into line from there.
The military will form further east,
and will pass the easternmost stands.
MaJ. Gen. Wood came to this de
cision because it was felt that the
business and professional man form
ing the civic section, being unused to
long marching and standing, should
be spared as much fatigue as possible.
Everyone In the line will have to
march to Washington Circle, where
the parade will dieband and the busi
ness men will be saved a long tramp
by Joining the parade at the west end
instead of the east end of the capltoL
But the Joint committee of oon
greee has taken the stand that this
plan does an injustice to the pur
chasers of seats in the stands erected
east of the capltol in that they will
not see any of the parade except the
military sections.
The matter has been taken up be
tween Maj. Gen. Wood and the com
mittee, hut so far nothing has come
of It. As the plans for the parade are
entirely up to Gen. Wood It would he
necessary to take congressional action
to bring about any change In the
present outline unless the grand mar
shal decides to order a reversal of the
accepted plan.

DR. NIIUGHTON AGAIN
RESPITED BY BROWN
Swainsboro Physician Not to
Hang Until After Trial of
Mrs. Flanders.
Atlanta, Ga —Governor Brown Wed
nesday afternoon respited Dr. W. J.
McNaughton, condemned to death for
the murder of Fred Flanders In Eman
uel county many months ago, until
May Bth.
McNaughton was under sentence to
die on February 28. having been res
pited In November to that date by the
governor, who declared that Mc-
Naughton should not die until the
case against Mrs. Fred Flanders, Ms
alleged 00-conspirator in the slaying
of Flanders, should be disposed of.
Although McNaughton and Mrs.
Flanders were indicted Jointly two
years ago for the crime against Flan
ders, and McNaughton was promptly
tried and convicted. Mrs. Flanders
never has been tried.
McNaughton’s attorney. Colonel
Fred Saffold, of Swainsboro, has
stoutly maintained that the state dare
not try Mrs. Flanders before Mc-
Naughton*s execution. holding that
the state not only could not convict
Mrs. Flanders, but that her trial, in
all probability, would result in a vin
dication of McNaughton.
Case Again Put Over.
When the governor respited Mc-
Naughton last fall It was his under
standing that Mrs. Flanders would be
tried at the January term of the
Emanuel court, and he had what he
considered a promise from the state
that she should be. When her case
was called in January, however, It was
again continued. It Is now on the
calendar for the March term.
True to his avowed purpose, the
governor today again postponed the
sentence of McNaughton until May,
expecting Mrs. Flanders to be tried at
the March term.
If Mrs. Flanders is not tried at the
March term the case likdly will tie
continued until the June term, and
that will carry It over from the ad
ministration of Governor Brown into
the administration of Governor Sla
ton.
Whether the governor suspects that
some such purpose Is now in the
minds of the Emanuel county officials
he has not said, but if he should find
that the Intention is to get the case
away from him and Into some other
not committed to any course of action
with respect to McNaughton, it may
be that McNaughton’s sentence will
he commuted to life Imprisonment,
thus making it certain that he will
be alive when Mrs. Flanders Is tried,
if ever, unless brought to his death
by natural causes.
Governor In Doubt.
There Is evidently an element of
doubt In the executive mind as to the
guilt of McNaughton—accentuated by
the persistent refusal of the state to
try her alleged accomplice—and the
governor plainly Is determined that
McNaughton shall have the benefit of
that doubt for the present, at least.
Colonel Saffold, McNaughton’s law
yer, who Is In Atlanta, declarers that
the case against Mrs. Flanders nevef
■will be tried so long as McNaughton
lives.
If she is not tried at the May term
the proposition then before the gov
ernor will be decidedly Interesting.
CONVICT LEASE
scoop S.C.
Letter Read to the House From
Paroled Prisoner Alleges In
human Treatment.
Columbia, S. C.—Charges that con
victs were punished by flogging, given
improper food. 111 kempt clothing and
subjected to tuberculosis contamina
tion while at work, were contained in
an affidavit from a paroled convict
which was read in the house of rep
resentatives of the legislature during
debate on the bill to abolish the hos
iery In the state penitentiary and re
scind the contract which John IvL
Graham holds from the directors of
•the penitentiary by which he runs the
hosiery mill with convict labor.
A letter from a convict to Governor
Blease was read in which the convict
said that he had been beaten until his
clothes were plastered to his back
•with blofcd. and his body lacerated
with wounds.
Mr. Graham was denounced as a
cold blooded "Yankee,” wrose than
"Shylock.” Representative Wyche,
the author of the bill, made a ringing
speech against the hosiery mill and
scored the treatment of the convicts
who worked therein.
He demanded that the contract be

broken in the name of humanity, and
justice, and his plea moved the house.
Others joined in the chorus of de
nunciation leveled at Contractor Gra
ham, it being brought out that he
paid the state 57 1-2 cents for the la
bor of the men convicts and 47 1-2
cents for female convicts, which the
state clothes and feeds.
A hard fight was put up against the
bill but the house defeated all at
tempts to postpone the matter and
passed it by a good majority.
The abolishing of the hosiery mill is
favored by Governor Blea6e, who has
scored it in speeches and message as
a “tuberculosis incubator."
TROOPS. FOUR OF Til,
FOR 6EORGIA CMOII
Lieut, and Three Husky Ne
groes Rescue Historic Battle
Pieces Loaned By State.
Atlanta, Ga—One Valiant lieutenant
fend three husky negro laborers were
the "troops” who Journeyed to Grant
Park yesterday afternoon and formal
ly took possession of the two historic
cannon, owned by the state of Georgia
and loaned to the park commission 25
years ago.
The park hands offered no “effect
ual resistance.” In fact, Lieutenant
Arthur McCollum, who is property
clerk in the office of the adjutant gen
eral, and who was In charge of the
expedition, says that the park hands
•kept at a distance and didn’t oome
near the "troops” during the entire
maneuver.
Lifted from their moorings of 25
years, the two cannons were borne to
a moving van and carried to the state
capltol. There they were placed se
curely in the basement, and within
the next few days will be cleaned up
and installed on the capltol steps.
Lieutenant McCollum reported, how-'
ever, that the carriages of the can
non were ready to drop to pieces, that
one of the cannon had already half
fallen from its fastenings, and there
fore the carriages were left on the
grounds at Grant Park. Only the long
and dlngy-looking cannon barrels
were removed.
On the top of each barrel Is the
coat of arms of Georgia, plainly dis
cernible though worn with ago.
Across the top of each cannon Is also
Inscribed "Georgia Military Institute."
This was the famous military college
at Marietta supported by the state of
Georgia before the war. The cadets
of the institute U6ed the cannon in
the defense of the state capltol at
Milledgevllle against the attack of
Sherman, and also in other memorable
conflicts of the 60’s. Because of this
historic interest, the state authori
ties decided to ask for the r<f.urn of
the cannon, according to the agree
ment, and they will be placed on either
side of the Hunter street entrance to
the capltol where they will be viewed
by thousands of Interested visitors.
