MENACE TO The SOUTH
Is the Suffrage Plank in the Repub-
Iican Platform.


New York, Jun 27-Thomas F.
Ryan, who is a del gate from Virginia
to the Democratic National Conven-
ton at St Louis, believes that the
Southern delegates should cooperate
to secure a nomination which will in
vite success. He $ id to-day:
I'm the light of the Republican Con-
vention, the Southerl people have more
at stake in the Den 0cratic Convention
soon to meet in s.. Louis than all
the rest of the peopIe of this country.
Without the South, here would be no
Democratic party The delegates from
that section, to be rue to themselves
and the people. should insist that all
differences, whether personal or po-
litical, be subordinatad to the uniflca-
ton of the party md the selection
Of candidate who will arouse the
enthusiasm and fire the hopes of Dem
ocrats everywhere.
Success means continued white su-
premacy in the South, with all it I'M
plies. 1t means that The political faith
Of the people of that section shall be
changed only by app=als to the judg-
nrent and conscience IS to what is best
for all the people of our common coun-
try, and not through federal laws die
tated and enforced by a centralized
and politically hostile administration
at Washington, reinforced by the
United States marshal when other
methods no longer avail.
THE feature which stands out in the
work of the Republican National Com
mittee which has just adjourned was
not its prearranged nomination of
President Roosevelt or the stand-pat
attitude on the tariff. IT'S real spirit is
found in that deliberate declaration
about Southern epresentation-a spirit
which foreshadows = new force bill
and makes inevitable concerted move
ment to revive all the evil passions
to which such an appeal is made.
Until recently this idea has had in
it nothing more serious than was in
volved in the idle talk of few hot
heads, or in the efforts of notoriety-
seekers to command a hearing; now it
becomes the deliberate policy of a
great party which sees in it an oppor-
tunity to forge a new weapon for pro-
longing its tenure of power.
This policy is adopted in defiance of
the uniform decisions of the courts,
from the lowest to the highest; it sets
at naught the precepts and the exam
pie of the late President Mckinley; it
bellies the boats of the party leaders
that unity had come to the country;
and it overlooks entirely the steady
movements which have promoted with
SO much efficiency the industrial de-
velopment of the South, now recog-
nized as so vital to the future growth
of the whole country. Instead OF
something to typify these tendencies,
the bloody shirt, buried since March,
1885. is resurrected as a party banner.
1.-THE South is to be congratulated
that the party has on guard in both
the House and the Senate, the best or
ganized and the ablest led Democratic
minority since the war"

CHANGES IN LAW
WILL BE URGED
COMMITTEE OF LAWYERS
HAS RECOMMENDATION READY
FOR THE ASSOCIATION

One Plan Is to Allow the state the
same Number of Challenges a.
the Accused in Criminal Trial.
state should Also Have the Right
20 Move for a New Trial and Have
a writ of Error Equally with the
Prisoner.
Atlanta, June 27.-The Committee on
Judicial Administration and Remedial
Procedure. which was appointed at the
last session of the Georgia Bar As
ISOLATION. has prepared an interesting
report which will be submitted 10 the
Bar Association on the occasion of its
coming meeting at Warm Springs on
June 80 This committee is COM
posed of Judge George Hillyer of At
lanta. chairman: NJ. J. Yeomans, J. H.
SHELTON. w. C. Bum and L. V. Whip
pie.
The committee urges the repeal Of
the law that prohibits judges from ex-
pressing or intimating any opinion on
the evidence when charging the jury,
and recommends that judges be requir-
ed to sum up the evidence. 1t is rec
commended that the state should be al
lowed the same number of challenges
as the accused in criminal trial
For Rights of the state.
In all criminal cases it is recon-
nended that the state should have the
right to move for new trial, and
have a writ of error equally with the
prisoner. 1t is recommended that in
certain cases written dispositions be
admitted in criminal cases; that
brief of the oral testimony and alb
stract of the written testimony should
be filed with the record in all Grim
inal cases and civil cases involving
over 81 900: that in all felony cases
verdict should be rendered by two
thirds vote of the jury: that judges
of the Superior Court be required to
rotate over the state; that all rail-
roads should he required to furnish
free transportation to judges of the
Supreme and Superior Courts, to all
state House officials and to all mem
bers of the Legislature when that body
is in session. In the event il is not
found expedient TO require roads to
furnish free transportation, it is rec
commended that travelling expenses be
paid out of the treasury, and it be
forbidden all state officials to accept
free transportation.
To Accept no Gratuities.
II is stated il should also be made
a nisdemeanor for any state or munic-
ipal officer to accept any gratuity Of
any kind from any transportation
company or public utility corporation.
An Australian ballot law for regular
and primary elections is urged.
In conclusion the committee recon-
nends that the system of electing
judges by the people be continued for
a time until a full and fair test of
the plan has been made. and that no
Judge shall be eligible to the office
of Governor or Congress or United
States senator until two full years aft
er the expiration of the term for which
he was elected.
