ADMIRAL SWINBURNE
THANKS HONOLULU

One of the first acts of Admiral
Swinburne, as soon as the flagship
West Virginia was in the ofing, was
to send a message to Captain Rees of
the Naval Station by wireless request
ing him to thank the entertainment
committee and ladies of Honolulu for
their hospitality during the stay of the
fleet. The following letter was sent
by Captain Rees to the entertainment
committee.
Honolulu, October %.
''To the Entertainment Committee and
the Ladies of Honolulu:
'fThe following wireless messag BE
was received at the U. S. Naval Sta
tion at $3.50 this forenoon: ~. S. S.

tee and the ladies of Honolulu my

their cordial hospitality as extended to

.FREAR ENDORSES A
DEMOCRATIC PLANK

At the Fifth District Democratic
meeting last night, Edward Ingham.
candidate for Supervisor, accused the
Republicans of purloining the cam
paign material of the Democracy, al
the same time asking in holy horror:
"Can anything good come out of De-
mocracy2'
Ingham quoted the "Suspect Hospi-
taln plank in the Democratic platform
| of September 10, 1908, reading as fol
lows: owe favor the erection of sus-
pect hospitals at convenient points
adapted to the requirements. where
persons afflicted with disease may be
treated until such time as the nature
| of their disease has been fully deter
| mined. - He then quoted from Gov
ernor Frear's remarks copied from the
Hawaii Herald, and published in the
Advertiser, October 20, to this effect:
| ''The intention is to build hospitals on
| the different islands, so that those who
| are supposed to be afflicted may be
treated as near to their homes as pos
sible, there making every effort to eff
| feet a cure. -
Himself proposing to do exactly
what the Democrats in their platform
! said should be done,o said Ingham,
"Governor Frear in his Orpheum
speech charged the Democrats with
'dastardly tactics because they pre-
sented the subject of what should be
done for the lepers, on the stump. The
| truth is that the Republicans during
| their eight years of administration of
affairs in this Territory have been try
ing to fool the people all the time, de-
eeiving them, keeping the word of
promise to the ear to break it to the
hope, until public opinion on the sub
ieet independent of party has sternly
rebuked them, and now the Governor
and the party leaders are trying to
meet the situation by promising to do
the things that the Democrats have de-
clared for in their platform for the
past four years. Governor Frear,
forced by public opinion to do some
thing, is now taking plank from the
Democratic platform and claiming it as
his own, and then berating the Demo
Gratis for treating the subject at all
from the stump"
Rose said that some Of the runners of
the Republican party were telling the
Democrats that if there are any Demo
Gratis on the ticket they do not want to
vote for, they should make a pencil
mark through the name. This will
spoil the ballot, and that is what this
advice is being given for in order to
invalidate as many Democratic ballots
as possible.
Rose urged William P. Jarrett for
Sheriff as the right man for the Office.
He urged the election of Judge Edings
as County Attorney, with Jarrett as
Sheriff and himself as Deputy Sheriff,
for he would be their legal adviser. He
urged the election of L. L. McCandless
for Delegate to Congress, of Joseph j.
Fern for Mayor, and the whole ticket,
which was a good one from top to bot
tom, with no yellow dogs on it and no
one against whom charges could be
brought.

STILL TALKING OF THE TRIAL
Disappointed That the Evidence in
the LintOn-MitchelI Trial Did Not
Clear Up the Mystery.

BROWNSVILLE, Ga.-Miss Lucille
Linton lett today with her sister, Mrs.
T. F. Green, for Athens, where she
will spend the remainder of the win
ter. Miss Linton does not intend to
leave ThomasvilIe permanently, but
will return from time to time to see
about her property interests here.
A number of papers in nearby
towns have been trying to throw
off, on the verdict of the jury in the
Mitchell-Linton case and Thomasville
justice generally. So far as the jury
is concerned those who kept up with
the trial and are conversant with the
law know that the verdict was the
only one that could have been
brought for conviction, and part of
that was merely technical, as Miss
Linton did not claim that she was
hurt in any way, and beyond placing
the hand upon her throat to check
her screams there was no evidence
to bring for the charge of battery
So far as can be learned the prose-
cution has had no fault to find with
the verdict
Some of the papers are still init
mating that there is much in the
case that has been
kept back. That the trial was a dis
tinct disappointment IS freely admit
ted, as it was generally believed that
the evidence in the case would be of
such a nature as to prove beyond all
doubt who was the guilty party and
solve the whole mystery of the affair,
but the universal opinion expressed
on all sides is that very little more
is known about it now than there
was before the case was tried.
Mr.. Mitchell seems to be improv-
ing. He still suffers some with his
hand, the bone being diseased from
the bullet having remained in it so
long, but he is able to get about on
his crutches.
The lawyers are busy getting
things in readiness for the fourth
Saturday IN January, the time Judge
Roam has set for hearing the motion
for new trial.

Five negroes now living in Geor-
gia are charged in evidence submit
ted by President Roosevelt to the
senate with having been conspicuous
ly involved in the shooting up of
Brownsville, Texas, on August 18th
and 14th, 1906.
Boyd Conyers of Monroe, Ca, and
John Holloman, now living quietly
in Macon, are accused by special in
vestigators of the war department
with having been ring leaders in the
riot.
Senator Joseph Benson Foraker of
Ohio, a member of the senate COM
mittee on military affairs, which in
vestigated the affray and who defend
ed the negroes in committee and on
the floor of the senate, is charged
with having encouraged discharged
negro soldiers to adhere to false tes-
timony given before the committee.
Atlanta Negro Figures.
An Atlanta negro, James Powell,
employed by DR.. William Crenshaw
at the Atlanta Dental College, figures
in the testimony in ludicrous way.
Powell in vainglorious and boastful
way told a detective of the war de-
partment that he was one of the riot
ers. 1t appears that he was in At
lanta all the while. Dr. Crenshaw
states that the negro was working at
the Atlanta Dental College at the
time, and had no connection what
ever with the affair.

BURNED KEsTLER STORES.
Almost All Business Houses of the
Town in Ruins.

An incendiary fire a few nights
ago destroyed almost every business
house in Kestler, in Early county.
Six stores were burned, very little
stock being saved. The loss is about
$4,000 with insurance of $1,000.
The fire originated at midnight.
The buildings and stocks de-
stroyed are the Perry Trading Co.,
building worth 5000, stock $4,000;
insurance $4,000; Tabb & Son,
stock $1,000, insurance $500; c..
w. Simmons, building occupied by
Tabb & Son valued at $1,000. with
Insurance of $500; Crumbley & Tay-
Tor, stock valued at $1,000, insur-
ance $500; building owned by Mrs.
b. E. Pickron and occupied bv
Crumbley & Taylor, valued at ST.
600, insurance $500; building occu-
pied by Skies furniture store. val
ued at $500, partially insured; build
ing owned by Henry Bolts, valued at
$500, no insurance.
The large two story brick building
owned and occupied by T. E. High
tower & Son was saved by heroic
work, and the fact that it had a
metal roof and fire proof shutters
and windows prevented more than
$1,000 damage to stock and build
ing, which amount is fully covered
by insurance.
1t was in the Kestler community
that night riders sometime ago
burned thirteen negro school houses
and churches.
The large two-story brick building
is also noted for its moonshiners,
and United States officers recently
captured the king of moonshIners,
a man named Hall A few nights
ago the officer who made the arrest
was shot at while riding through that
section on a train, the bail passing
through the glass window and mar
rowly missing him.

stitution reporter, 81 wuz jes' talkin'

Boyd Corners Case.
Serious reflections are cast upon
the reliability of the evidence sub
mitted by agents for the war depart
ment by Sheriff E. c. Arnold of Wal
ton county.
In long distance telephone con-
versation he declared he had known
Boyd Conyers all his life, and did
not believe him guilty of any outrage
at Brownsville.
Il was present at all the converse
lions held between Herbert j. Brown
and Boyd Conyers, and worked as
hard as possible to get at the real
facts in the case. Conyers did not
state the things attributed to him.
He lived here before he enlisted in
the army; has been here since his
discharge, and l believe what he says
about the Brownsville case.
