fight was necessary.
Senator Richardson received his Wis
itors courteously. and expressed some
surprise that they had not called on
him at Washington. and further ex-
tended an invitation for them to visit
him at any time.
He did not give them any encourage
ment along the lines Of a compromise
with Mr.. Alice, declaring that II all
were true Republicans. they should let
the people decide these matters at the
primaries and then loyalty abide by
that decision, whatever 1t might be.

Richardson and County Chairman
George w. Marshall is being pushed

Senate and Lords.

The British house Of lords is a sur
vival Of the ancient aristocracy Of the
kingdom, which for a long time was
supreme In all national matters. When
the democratic sentiment won a place
for itself in the shape Of the house Of
commons the natural and apparently
indestructble conservatism Of the Brit
ish people held on to the house of lords
as a check upon the commons ahd a
perpetual reminder of the ancient insti-
tuition. The senate of the United States
was the result Of the compromise
struck between the Nationalists and
States Rights parties in the convention
that formed the constitution. Some
were for merging the representatives
in single body, while others insisted
upon the second chamber (the senate)
as a recognition of the political equality
of the states.

Against the AEdTuch Bill.
Letter No. ~

Never has there been any dispute of
the fact that the power to supply ma
ton with its currency is a sovereign
power. No government ever allowed
that power to slip from its hands, if it
was possible to prevent it.
One of the very first indications of dis
indignation and governmental chaos is
the loss by the central authority of the
exclusive right to coin money. Thus, in
the Middle Ages, and in the Dark Ages,
it was an unfailing sign that the barons
had encroached on the king when the
feudal lord could exercise, without inter
ference, the right of private coinage. In
those times, you will remember, the feud-
al lord claimed and exercised the right to
administer justice within his own do
main. In his own courts he tried his
vassals for their lives, and not only SEN
fenced them to terms Of Imprisonment,
but sentenced them to death. The ex-
ercise of this function, and the exercise
of the right of private coinage was, as it
were, barometer by which you could

Qetter No. ~

Thomson, Ga, Jan. 26, 1908.
Hon. Hoke Smith, Governor.
My Dear Mr.. Smith Your favor re-
ceived.
AS have said to you before, there is
no Office or appointment which I would
accept.
My work on the two Jeffersonians is
congenial and exacting, and I never 'ex-
pect to hold another public position
am shocked, unspeakably, to see what
misconstruction you have put upon the
finding of the Lunacy Commission in the
Glover case. That Report sustains what
| told you, viz: that while Glover is
sane III the sense that he knows right
from wrong, yet he is unbalanced, de-
fective degenerate, "crack-brained." You
have misunderstood the meaning of the
physicians. Their Report is ambiguous,
in the use of the words defective" and
degenerate" but unless those words ap-
ply to Glover mentally, they convey no
meaning. If you will inquire, specific
ally, of each one of those physicians, you
will find that my contention is correct
The Georgia rule on insanity is harsh,
but under any proper presentation of a
\eAoN
nal is semi-insane, and therefore not as
fully responsible, before God and man, as
the more fortunate fe1low-being whose
mind is perfectly balanced. There is alb
solutely no dispute about the fact that
Glover is unbalanced, and always has
BEEN That much is notorious.
Then, why should consideration of this
vital fact be ignored in grading the pun
ishment?
Admit for arguments sake that it was
right to convict him of murder, does it
follow that he, defective and degener-
ate man, should be dealt with as though
he were sound in every way?
In the Kerlin case, a married man MUIR
dered his paramount, sunk her body in
the Chattahoochee river, and weighted it
down with old p1ow-shares that he had
brought along for the purpose. Yet he
was given life sentence, and is now serv-
ing in our penitentiary In the Harvil

hlnd, and dragged the body into conceal
ment. Yet he was given life sentence.
The trend of the whole world is against
capital punishment; and in no case, now,
do the more enlightened favor the ex-
IRENE penalty for crimes committed in
the heat of passion-with the one great
and necessary exception of Rape.
The record shows that Glover has not
had fair trial 1t was an Infamous thing
for Boykin Wright to drag my name in
TO the case for the purpose of inhaming
political prejudice against the defend
ant. 1t was wrong in the Judge to say
that the venue ought to be changed, and
then to allow Wright and Eve to bull
doze him, overnight It was most I'M
just to deny the fullest inquiry into the
hereditary faint which Glover took along
with his life. The 1berality of the pre-
siding Judge who is trying the Thaw
case explains what | mean.
From the Pardon Board, I expected
nothing. General Evans is the father
in-law of Judge Eve, of the Augusta ring.
Tom Eason is merely one of the Old
Gang.
Joe Sid Turner is the man of the Rape
Circular of 1894
What had Populist like Glover, or a
Populist like me, to expect from such
tribunal?
Nothing.
And we got nothing.
From you, we did expect Justice and
we have not got it.
Pardon me for speaking plain1y-it is
a matter Of life and death, and my feel
ings are deeply stirred.
If this crack-brained degenerate is
hanged, it will be murder Society has
the right to put him where he can never
again do harm; but society has no more
right to kill him than it haste kill any
other demented creature.
The Augusta Ring wants this mans
life, not so much because he killed bad
woman, as because he was the most dar-
ing "Tom Watson man" that bucked
against the political rascality of which 7
was the victim.
Boykin Wright wanted me assassinat-
ed, and Arthur Glover was one of those
who saved my life.
I had hoped that this consideration
would have had some weight with you
but it seems that [ was wrong.
Time and again, in the city of Angus
ia, these Ringsters have given life SEN
fences and acquittals to red-handed MUIR
derers whose crimes were as bad as that
