Negress Acquitted of Assault to Kill

Georgia Ellis, on transfer from Judge Lea's court, was tried by a jury in Judge Winield's court on | charge of having attempted to take the life of Rev Stewart, a negro preacher. The fact of shooting at him twice was not denied, but the circumstances under which the shooting occurred were pleaded as extenuating circum- stances.
 It was alleged the preacher first came to Georgia and asked her about taking care of some delegates and then accused her of taking dollar. The woman also alleged he made in sulting remarks about her reputation. A little girl witness testified that Stewart ran as fast as he could after the shots were fired at him.
 Did he 2y?" was asked by counsel
 No, but he would have, if he had had wings" was the reply of the wit ness.

America Must Stop Plundering.

President Thomas of Middlsbury
College, in Leslie's Weekly: We
have been exploiting a continent. the
broadest and richest ever allotted to
any people. A horde of plunderers,
we have swept down upon its treas
urs. consuming ruthlessly it's forests
impoverishing its soil, strewing its
meadows to the seas, and burning it's
treasured mountains as our barbara
ian forefathers burned the hills of
Rome. AS robbers we have succeeded
tremendously. That has been hither-
to our success. We have had but
one Emerson; the great Americans
have been Edison, Morse, Fulton, and
their like, togethers with the masters
of business who have heaped up the
largest fortunes the world has ever
known Were all the Americans to
be blotted out, past and present, the
loss to the world of culture, thought,
and beauty, would not equal the loss
of one small year of Athens. The
time is surely coming when we can
live no more by plumber, but must
set ourselves to build and to plant,
and to renew our life from within.
The day OF our reckoning viii aso

HOPE

Hope is an indefinite something
that sustains the hesrs of man under

conditions. h.

lightning strikes the best horse, or

4 away permanently. But sometimes
lightning strikes twice in the same
place, and very often the wife comes
back. When this happens it is well
to have on hand several quarts OF

BONAPARTE LISTS
ANTITRUST SUITS
Attorney General Tells Demo-
cratic Committee Illegal Com
binatiOns Are Prosecuted

WASHINGTON, Oct S.-Attorney
General Bonaparte yesterday made
public his reply to a letter he had re-
ceived from Josephus Daniels, chair
man Of the democratic press committee
at Chicago, asking for facts connected
with the trust prosecutions by the de-
partment of justice, including the
present standing of litigation against
the trusts.
The reply gives a summary of the
cases prosecuted substantially as fur
nished in a recent report made public,
copy of which the attorney general
forwarded to Daniels. Bonaparte says:
1t is, of course, needless for me to
say that the mere fact that a corpora
tion or association is called trust
by Mr.. John Moody in his manual does
not prove or even tend to prove that
the organization in question or it's
members have been guilty of any viola
ton of federal laws. Neither is such
guilt suggested by the fact that such
organization may do a large and ap-
parently profitable business.
The criminal provisions of the stat
ute generally known as the Sherman
antitrust law apply only to those who
enter into contracts, commissions or
conspiracies I'm restraint of trade, and
although the statute provides that such
contract, commission or conspiracy
shall be none the less criminal because
it takes the form of trust, this does
not, of course, make trusts of them
selves criminals
Since 1 have been attorney general
this department prosecuted either civil
ly or criminally all cases of alleged
misconduct under the statutes above
mentioned which have been brought tn
its attention from a responsible source
and in which the results of a carefully
made inquiry by competent and i'm
partial officers disclosed the existence
of such facts and of such legal evi-
dence to prove them as afforded a rea-
sonable hope Of success in such prose-
cution. The policy of the department
will be the same during the remainder
of my term Of Office"
