rights in her face, such rights as lusi-
ness houses that desire to use her pic
ture as an advertisement are bound TO
respect? This is a question which is
presented IL 9 case before the Supreme
Court at Rochester, n. Y, and which
Justice Davy has just answered in the
affirmative. Miss Abigail Robertson,
beautiful girl of eighteen, sued the
Franklin Mills Company, Of Lockport,
and the Rochester Folding Box Com
pany for SO. 900 damages for having
used her portrait without her knowl-
edge or consent as an advertisement
for their wares. The ground Of her
suit was that her right of privacy had
been invaded, point, tits said, never
before passed upon in the courts of
this country. The defendants de-
INJURED to this claim, but Justice
Dayy overrulcd the demurrer and up
held the plaintiffs contention. The
justice held that the publicity forced
upon her would naturally be painful
and offensive to modest and retiring
nature. Privacy, he said, is regarded
a product Of civilization. The priva-
cy Of the home in every civilized
country is regarded as sacred. He
added:
"For years there has existed in the
public mind feeling that the law was
too lax in atfording no remedy for the
unauthorized circulation of portraits
of private persons, and this invasion
of privacy has been keenly felt by the
public. 1t may be asked how the cir
culation of these lithographic adver-
tisements affect the plaintiff in her
privacy. 1t is evident that the acts of
the defendants in printing and post
ing her likeness in public places as an
advertisement invites public criticism
and brings her name into more or less
unenviable notoriety, and to certain
extent inficts injury to her reputation
and feeling, especially if she desires
a life of privacy, which she has a
right to enjoy. To permit every per-
son to print and use the likeness Of
the plaintiff to advertise their business
and yet say there is no power in the
courts to protect her, would be assert
ing proposition at war @ith the prin-
ciples of justice and equity. Are we
to rely upon the courts for the protec-
tion Of ones goods and chattels; and |
is there no power to protect the plain
tiff 8 reputation or right of privacy
against circulating and posting these
Autographs in public places unless it
be by the horsewhip or some other un-
lawful act? If her lithographic like |
ness, owing to it's beauty, is Of great
value as trademark, OF an advertis-
ing medium, it is property right be-
longing to her and cannot be taken
from her without her consent. She
has right to say that, without her
consent, these lithographic copies of
her likeness shall not be circulated or
used by the defendants.
The face of many pretty girl is her
only fortune, but if it can be stolen
and used for advertising purposes
her consent, it becomes a
source of fortune to every business
buocsneer WAC may be able 20 get
snapshot at her. Her right of privo-
cy is not only invaded, but she is
cheapencd and vulgarized and her
face value in the matrimonial market
is seriously lessened. = Baltimore

MIR. sIHNONS' ENDORSEMENTS

THE COMMONWEALTH long before the
August election took the ground that
Hon, F. Nj. Simmons would be the
Senator to Fill the place vacated by the
expiration OF Buffers term. We stand
by our first position, and give nearly
all our editorial space this week to few
OF the many and forceful endorsements
which are every day appearing in the
papers in his favor.
We ask that every voter into whose
hands this paper may come will read
carefully every line we print this week
concerning Mr.. Simmons.
While we would emphasize every
word of it. we call special attention to
Judge Womack's 9th reason why MIR.
Simmons should be Senator. 1t seems
to us that in that short paragraph is
enough TO grapple every Democrat in
the State to Mr.. Simmons in the party s
interest, to say nothing OF the man
himself. 1t seems to us that from this
standpoint every other aspirant ought
to stand aside.
We call special attention also to
what Mr.. Cameron Morrison's letter 10
the News AMI Observer says about Mr..
Simmons in connection with the Con-
federat9 soldiers.
The commonwealth. (Scotland Neck, N.C.) 1896-1929, 1900-09-20

He has done more for education than
any living North Carolinian, by doing
more for white supremacy and the
has done more for the Confederate
soldier than any other living North
CaroIinlan, not by giving a little
m oney from well filled pockets, but by
dong more to help them regain by the
adoption CT the amendment all that Is
valuable OF what they lost on the field
Of battle, that il, the right and the
power of the white people Of the State
to govern themselves ard the negro :;
and now in the evening of their lives
they can enjoy the glorious satisfaction
of knowing that the civilization OF
their dear State will remain Anglo
Saxon forever, and their cons and
daughters always enjoy Anglo Saxon
government.
Mr.. Simmons genius for politics has
put hundreds of Confederate soldiers in
good Offices which would have been
held by negroes and by white men
who loved negroes better than Cjnfed-
crate soldiers Or their sons. He has
been the commanding spirit in making
1t forever impossible for a negro to de-
ieat 4 Confederate soldier, or the son OF
one, for any office in any tow nshlp,
town, county. city Or district in tia
State. Mr.. Simmons was not oil,
enough to be ia the war from 81 to
'65, but the war for the independence
Of Our people and the preservation o
North Cardinals ci -ilizatIon has beef,
going on from 1861 until now. MI.
Simmons enlisted as soon as he was old
enough, and IN the List great battle
when the final victory was won he was
in command. We want him to 20 t.
the United States Senate 10 help pre-.
tect the honor, and The fame of the ex
Confederate soldiers and their sons ani
daughters who were engaged in .be
two great battles of 1888 and 1900, snd
to continue the fight for justice and
good government and our constitution
al rights.
We urge all those who favor the
election of Mr.. Simmons to the Senate
to bestir themselves tor him. Ever,
Democratic sorehead and every enen
OF organized Democracy will Oppose
him. Every lnail who wanted 10 joir
the Radicals but feared public senti
ment will oppose him. Ard the per
sonal frie.ds and admirers of the grea
and good man who are contsstihs til.
honor with him will oppose him. VIZ
urge his friends 10 organize and 20 Il
work. Richmond will undoubtedly d
its duty by him. Respectfully,

SIMMONS PARTY SERVICE.

The Greensboro Telegram OF last
Saturday giving arguments in favor OF
the different candidates for the Senate,
said the following OF Mr.. F. M. Sim
mons:
.Fiiat and foremost is the argument
OF party service. 1t is said that Mr..
Simmons is the greatest political Or
yanizsr in North Carolina (some say In
the worldly and has accomplished more
for the Democratic party than any
othee man in the State. His friends
bave not forgotten that when the State
convention of 1898 met. after the party
mad suffered defeat in the two proceed
ing elections, and when everything was
IN a state of chaotic uncertainty, with
M man apparently willing to assume
the responsibility Of the State chair
innnship, 1t was Mr.. Simmons who
ca;ne to the rescue and undertook the
work Of unravelling the tangled skein
OF North Carolina politics and set
Democracy on its feet. The brilliant
victory achieved under his leadershl D
That year, and again this year, restored
TIE party in the State and gave us the
constitutional amendment. The saga
cicus chalrman's friends say no has
earned the right to anything he may
want. He wants the Senatorship,
therefore give it to him.
MIR. Simmons is no: without leeis-
latlve experience. He has served in
Congress, representing the Second Dis
tiIct, and has held other offices. In ad-
d'tion to this, he is a man of consider
able ability and-of extraordinary ger
cep;ion. He is a student of economic
questions and is we'll versed in the
science Of government"
