PEOPLE OF THE DAY


The recent arrest in New York Of
Kissak Jellalian, member of the Amer
lean Hunchakist society. has revealed
a startling story of crime The Hunch-
alzist society, ostensibly patriotic or
ganization, was in reality a blackmaiI-
ing band. According to Jellalian, the
society was controlled by a central
committee which levied tribute on rich
Armenians. Failure to comply with
the demands of the society was pun
lshed by death. The organization had
branches In New York, Providence,
Boston and Worcester ana is said to
have collected thousands of dollars
from its victims.
The murder In New York on July %
Of II. S. Tavshanjian, wealthy Amer
lean rug importer, brought matters to
a head. Tavshanjian was organizing
the Weather Armenians to resist the
demands Of the secret order. and SEN
tence of death was decreed and carried

was Father Caspar Vartarian, an Ar
menian priest, who was killed in New

body placed in a trunk.
The arrest of Jellalian and his revel-

Hunchakist will doubtless put an end
to activity of the society in this coun-
try.

Dinans action is likely to put his
star in a dangerous predicament before
the law, though he has little regard
for that. To prevent him from inter-
fering with the future acts of the
supervisors and acting Mayor Cal
lagller il is probable that a writ of

Early in the week Baker secured Cal

and asked if the permit was sufficient
and sDinan. carelessly forgetting that
Gallagher had not been indicted, said
yes.
yesterday he discovered his error and
notified Baker that he would not honor
the permit until Convict Schmitz had
signed il. Baker did not desire TO spin
fine threads of law with the chief, so he
went TO the county jail and between
the bars Schmitz signed the permit.
Dinan scrutinized the prison pallor on
the signature and then said that the
fights might be held. Today the prose-
cution will consider Dinan's attitude.

When Schmitz returned from Europe

the New York pier and entertained him,
and later. on the steps of Temple Israel,
where Schmitz had gone to answer for
his crimes, Dingee announced publicly:
He is one of the finest men that ever
lived"
Through the supervisors and Schmitz,
Dingee, who is head of the slate
monopoly, secured the passage of an
ordinance providing that roofs must be
fireproof and that act caused mighty
demand for slate in the city.
Dingee was seen at his San Mateo
home last evening and asked regard
ing the reported presence of the felon
mayor at his home on Monday night.
He said:
There is not a word of truth in the
story; / don't want to be bothered by
newspapermen. The report, however,
is absurd and ridiculous"
Sheriff ONeil said yesterday:
''Schmitz did not leave the JAIL and the
report is entirely false"

and I would be willing to take oath on

And Schmitz, once a man with the
soft emphasis of a deacon's vocabulary,
said: 1T is lie.'
The prosecution will not state the
name of the man who reported he saw
Schmitz out of O'Nefl's jail on Monday
night, but it was announced yesterday
that the grand jury would be asked to
investigate the allegations of escape.

trict Attorney Heney the mayor was

Attorney Drew stated that no legal
steps were contemplated pending the
action of the appellate court on
Schmitz' application for release on bail.
If that petition is denied application
will be promptly made to the state
supreme court. About the time the
supreme court has passed on the peti-
ton for release on bail it is anticipated
that Judge Dunno will have sentenced
Schmitz for the crime of extortion and
then the felon mayors attorneys will
have to start the merry go round of
petitions anew. for the sentenced

RURAL DELIVERY ENDANGERED.
(The Cedartown Standard.)

(The Cedartown Standard)
Do our country people really ap-
preciate the value of the rural free
delivery service?
Many Of them do, we know, and
consider it one of the greatest conven-
fences ever placed within their reach.
We are only sorry that every resident
of the rural regions does not feel the
same.
The government has instituted this
great service at tremendous expense,
and Is more than willing to maintain
it wherever appreciated. When there
is any considerable proportion of the
people along any route who do not
appreciate it, the service is being dis
continued. Two routes in Fulton coun-
ty have been cut out recently for this
reason, and it behooves our country
people to do all in their power to see
that every one in reach Of a route
becomes patron. Instead of paying
45 to rs cents rent quarterly for box,
as people in town have to do, a ru-
raj route patron has only to buy a
box at cost of about 81 and that is
all there is to 1t. Certainly this re-
quirement is reasonable enough, and
the price low enough to be within the
reach Of all. Everybody within reach
of rural route should patronize 1t
and do all in their power to build 1t
up. It is the one specially good thing
the government has done for the farm.

extended more and more every year.

ter to a newspaper, probably had only
a faint idea of the suproar he was to
occasion. One of the first results of
the publication seems to be the fore

a candidate for denomination. Few
people have doubted that the effort OF
the administration to secure a conven-
ton which would nominate a "Roose-

successful, have but one result-the
nomination of Mr.. Roosevelt himself.

whom Mr.. Roosevelt could place COM
