In his proclamation lis forwarded from Cairo by Heater's correspondent, the grand sherif tle nouneed Knver 1'iislui, Talaat I!ey and Djemal I'ashu, Young Turk lead ers, staunch supporters of (ierinany and iimonj; the moi-t powerful figures in Turkey. Djemal I'nsha is com niamler of tho Turkish forces in Syria and is reported to have adopt ed severe measures to crush the rev olution. The proclamation of the grand sherif, addressed to all Moslem brothers, follows: "We were one with the jvernment until the unionists appeared. Since then ruin has overtaken the state, which now has been drawn into this fatal war. We bore with the union ists, notwithstanding their departure from the preceplH of religion, until it became apparent that Kuvcr l'asha, Djemal l'asha and Talaat Itcv abso lutely ruled Turkey, iluinir whatever Ihey pleased. On one day they handed twenty-one of the most hon orable and enlightened Moslems, while children, old men and delicate women were bereaved of Ibeir natural protectors and subjected to foul tis ane, even torture.

Dinting again yestorday on speedy cor rupt practices legislation, threatened to delay adjournment of congress and precipitated a heated exchange be tween republicans and democrats of charges that each party had raised' a huge campaign fund for use In the coming elections. In connection with his plea for ac tion on his hill, Senator Owen de clared that the existing contributions law was a fraud upon the American people; accused senate republicans of deliberately trying to defeat his meas ure and charged that the so-culled lumber trust had sent $40,1)00 into Oklahoma to defeat his renominatlon because he voted to deny William Lorimer a seat In the senate. MACON', Aug. 25. Captain K. J. Spratllng, p. company fifth Infantry, Xutlonal Uuard of Georgia, a phy sician in private life, was shot and killed today In front of his tent at the state mobilisation camp near here. Mrs. II. C.

CANNON AS JONAH (Continued from Page One.) were on the free list or not. And I regret to say that many of those who assisted in discrediting those men hoped thereby to persuade the coun try into the belief that they were try ing to purify the party, "Hut the great bulk of the party re mained true to the fundamental prin ciples of their political faith, and tliev now have the sati faction of seeing a united republican party going forth under the banner of protection to win the country from the political fate thill befell it."
