James M. Hutsell Here.

Mr.. James M. Hutzell a form
er citizen of Columbus visited
Mr.. Charles F. Sherrod. Sr.,
last Thursday on his return
to his old Kentucky home.
twenty-five years ago Mr.. Hut
sell came to Columbus and asso-
ciated himself with Mr.. Sherrod
in the stock business. After
having spent 15 years in Colum-
bus, the firm became interest
ed in Guyton & Harrington
Mule Co., the largest horse and
mule company in the world.
Hutsell & Sherrod took charge of
the management of the Missis-
sippi delta territory which
caused Mr.. Hutsell to move to
Greenville, his business efforts
met with success but desire to
spend his remaining days at his
old home carried him back to
Kentucky. Surrounding his cit
izenship to Mississippi he came
by here 200 miles out of his way
to shake hands with the friends
of his boyhood days. May he
live long and prosper.

Mr.. and Mrs. r. L. Bradley
have legion of friends in Colum-
bus who were sorry to learn of
the accident that befell Mr..
Bradley last week. The follow
ing is from the Ciarion-Ledger:
Hon. r. L. Bradley, former
State Senator from Kinds county,
and ex-member of the Railroad
Commission, was thrown from
his buggy last night shortly af-
ter dark, or about z o'clock, and
very seriously injured.
The physicians and surgeons
who attended Mr.. Bradley after
he was removed to his home on
Griffith street, found that his
left thigh bone had been fir c.
tured, and that his right elbow
was dislocated.
His broken bone was set and
the elbow joint gotten back into
place, after which the patient
was reported as resting as well
as could be expected under the
circumstances.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bradley had
been out driving late in the af-
ternoon, and she had been out
of the buggy but a short while
when the horse became fright
ened at an automobile and bolted
down Parish street. At the cor
ner of Parish and Capitol streets
the animal dashed into the cor
ner, throwing Mr.. Bradley
heavily against the telephone
posts near the southeast corner,
and those who witnessed the ac-
cident thought he had been
killed, but he lacked a lot of it,
and it is not believed he will be
confined to his room any longer
than is usual in such cases. /"

Nashville, Tenn, July IA
Edward Laurent and Kate Lau-
rent, his wife, have filed suit in
chancery court against the order
of United Commercial Travellers,
seeking to enforce payment of a
policy of insurance for $40, 600
issued to Eugene A. Laurent,
son of the plaintiffs. Laurent
was killed by Charles R. Smith
at Artesia, Miss. The policy
held by Laurent was for acci-
dental death, and the CONNER
cial Travellers claim his death
was not accidental.

PRESIDENT ". H. TAFT
To VISIT COLUMBUS
LETTERS RECEIVED BY PROMINENT MEN OF CITY FROM HON.
J. M. DICKINSON SECRETARY OF WAR, TO THAT EFFECT

Hon. Walter Weaver has re-
ceived encouraging and graft
flying news from Hon. j. M.
Dickinson, Secretary of War,
to the effect that he, Dickinson,
had succeeded in getting the
President of the United States,
the Hon. w. H. Taft, to visit
Columbus next Fall, on his way
form Jackson to Birmingham
which point are included in the
Presidents itinerary, on his COM
ing southern trip. This visit
will probably be made about the
middle of October. The follow
ing are two letters that have
been received by Mr.. Weaver:
War Department. Washing
ton, D. c.. July 5th. 1909.
Walter Weaver, Esq.
Columbus, Miss.
Dear Mr.. Weaver:-I have
yours of June 18th. l did not
know the President was going
to Birmingham, but if he does |
shall certainly endeavor to have
him stop at Columbus. | will
take the matter up in due time.
Yours very truly.
fSigned) J. HI. DICKINSON.

Mr.. |. r. Kaufman, that we or
ganize Commercial Club in the
city of Columbus and a commit
tee of four be appointed by the
Chairman to draft Constitution
and Bylaws to be submitted for
ratification at the next meeting.
The Chairman appointed Messrs.
T. J. Locke, Jr., Walter Weaver,
w. H. Carter and Harry Selig,
On this committee. Upon motion
of w. H. Carter, the Chairman,
Mr.. p. w. Maer, was added to
this committee.
The Chairman then took up
the question of finances and gave
his opinion as favoring the ad-
visibility of the necessary funds
being raised by donation and
more especially that notes be
taken for the amounts donated,
and that these notes be left for
collection equally among the
three banks, stating that this
method of obtaining revenue for
expenses would relieve the Sec
retary of much work and the loss
of much valuable time making
these collections once a month.
Upon motion of Maj. Battle
Bell duly seconded, the commit
tee appointed to draw up the
Constitution and Bylaws were
made also a nominating COM
mittee to nominate an executive
board and officers whose duty
shall be to govern and direct the
affairs of the organization as
may be covered by the Consti-
tuition and Bylaws when SUBJ
mitted and adopted.
In further reference to the
question of finances and the bus
mess and active management of
the organization general dis
cussion was entered into with
the result that it was the concen-
sus of opinion that a compe-
tent Secretary shall be engaged
at a salary commensurate with
the requirements of the office.
That the efforts and ability of
this secretary shall be required
to bring results and in view of
the desire that no antagonistic
factions be created in the organ
ization and the conduct of the
business of the Club that this
permanent secretary shall not be
a resident of Columbus. It being
recognized that by this idea of
engaging an out side man the
possibility of the proposed Sec
retary being allied or welded to
any special interests in Colum-
bus will be eliminated, while no
criticism was voiced or intended
forwards any citizen or interest
in Columbus. In connection with
this line of discussion a motion
by Mr.. Selig, duly seconded and
carried, the Chairman was re-
quested to appoint a committee
of representative business men
of Columbus to call on the City
Council at it's meeting tomorrow
night. Friday night, July 10Th,
and ask the Honorable Mayor
and Council for a donation of
$500. 90. 1t was generally be-
lieved and so stated by several
present that the Council would
pass upon the request favorably
when the matter was brought

MUCH ENTHUSIASM SHOWN
IN COMMERCIAL ORGANIZATION
LARGE NUMBER OF BUSINESS MEN PRESENT AT INITIAL
MEETlNG---P. W. MAER, TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN

Pursuant to a call published IN
both city papers and a petition
recently circulated about town a
meeting of the business men and
citizens Of Columbus was held at
the City Hall, $3.50 p. M. July
l5, 1909. and the following bust
ness was transacted and discus
sions engaged in:
Upon motion Mr.. P. w. Mael
was called to the Chair and Mr..
w. G.. Mcclure acted as secre-
tary to the meeting. Mr.. Maer
upon calling the meeting to or
der went into an able and con-
vincing explanation of the pur-
poses of the meeting that of
organizing a Commercial Club in
the city of COlumbus-an and pre-
sented a convincing argument
and talked upon the Importance
and need Of such an organiza-
ton. He cited details to show
the loss Columbus is sustaining
for the want Of a business and
commercial organization and his
remarks generally were we'll re-
ceived by those present.
During the talk of the Chair
man, several more citizens came
in with the result that some
thirty or more representative
business men were present.
Upon request of the Chairman,
the following gentlemen respond
ed favorably, giving expressions
of their opinions with reference
to the movement, and all prom
ised their loyal, moral and fl
nancial support towards foster
ing the organization of a busi-
ness league and sustaining it
after plans ara under way:
Messrs. Julius Loeb, Brooks Nc
Gowan, Battle Bell, j. T. Wood,
Walter Weaver, l. H. Sykes, w.
II. Carter and others. Mr.. w,
s. Lindamood, especially took
occasion to cite discrimination in
freight rate on brick from Co
lumbus to Tupelo, showing that
the Columbus rate was two cents
per one hundred pounds higher
than West Point. He also men,
toned that the recent advance
in the rate on coal, from the
Birmingham district to CoIum-
bus of fifteen cents per ton was
costing his company an outlay
Of $3.50 per day, being a COM
parative loss to the interest of
Lindamood q Pickett, and he
felt in this one regard the need
of a Commercial organization, to
fight such increase in freight
rates and mentioned the fact
that this particular case is one
of many that should be handled
by such an organization for the
good of the interest of the en-
tire community.
Notably among the talks made
on the need of a business organ
izatiOn were the remarks of Mr..
Walter Weaver, Mr. Irwin Kauf-
man, Maj. Battle Bell, Mr.. Loeb,
in fact not a dissenting voice
was heard during the entire time
devoted to these preliminaries.
After a full and complete dis
cussion during which the nee
cessary cooperation promised
was quite unanimous. Mr..
Selig made a motion seconded by
The Columbus commercial. (Columbus, Miss.) 1893-1922, 1909-07-18
Mr.. Jim Freeman.

- Mr.. jim Freeman, age about
35, died at his home in Caledonia
Wednesday afternoon after a
long illness with typhoid fever.
Mr.. Freeman leaves a wife
and three little children besides
a large number of friends to
mourn his death.
The funeral services were held
from the residence Thursday
morning at 10 o'clock and the
remains were tenderly laid to
rest in Egger graveyard.

BUCKLEY GRATIEIED
AT DECISION
JUB6E JOHN [. BUCKLEY MAKES STATE
hEaT IN REeARg TO SUPREME
COURT DECISION
JUDGE MAKES A DENIAL

That Judge Buckley was fair
and impartial in the court room
while the trial of c.. r. Smith
was in progress can not be dis
puted. The following is a state
ment given to the Jackson
News by the Honorable Judge:
Il am naturally gratifed over
the manner in which the Su-
preme Court disposed of the ap-
peal in the Smith case," said
Judge Buckley. for it was my
constant endeavor to see to it
that both state and defense had
a fair and impartial hearing.
The case was replete with SEN
sations and dramatic climaxes,
and of the kind that the average
circuit judge dislikas very much
TO preside over.
Il regret, however, that there
was a dissenting opinion in the
case. and the distinguished
Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court is in error when he says
that the audience was constant
ly engaged in applause, which
became more pronounced at
every stage where the state
scored a point.
There was no applause or
demonstration of any kind per-
mitted during the trial. During
the hearing of the testimony.
and while the arguments were
in progress, / instructed the
sheriff to station deputies
throughout the court room, and
to promptly arrest all persons
making disturbances or endeav-
oring to manifest approval or
disapproval of the proceedings.
This order was obeyed by the
sheriff, and the conduct of the
audience was above reproach.
Of course, there were occasional
outbursts of laughter at sales
and clashes between counsel,
but no feeling was manifested
by persons engaged in these out
bursts, and they were promptly
suppressed.
THE statement of Chief JUS
tice Whitfield must have been
based on assertions made by
counsel for the appellant, for
they are not justified by the evi-
dence in the record. and no such
demonstrations as he described
occurred during the trial. =
Had | permitted such demon
strations as the Chief Justice de-
scribes, or allowed in the court
rom an audience cheering the
prosecution on constantly and re-
peatedly, / would be unworthy
of the trust | hold, and the Gov
ernor of the state would be JUS
titled in demanding my resigna-
ton from the bench.

COLUMBUS, MI
before them in the proper light
with the status of affairs and
facts with reference to the needs
of an organization of this kind
presented to that body in a true
and able manner. In accord
ance with this motion the chair
man appointed the following
gentlemen on this committee:
Messrs. Battle Bell, Brook Nc
Gowan, Walter Weaver, w. C..
Mcclure, w. H. Carter, Kauf-
man, w. P. Stribling, j. T.
Wood, Felix Chapman, T. J..
Locke, H. Selig, C. C. Richard
son, Julias Loeb, Lee Caine.
Henry Rechton, w. Fl. Linda
mood, George Senter, j. Kauf-
man. The chairman advised
that he would appoint next day
more to make up the number
desired. At this juncture it was
freely discussed and agreed up
on that this committee after
waiting upon the City Council
should call upon the three Co
lumbus banks for a donation of
500 each. The total funds pro-
posed being $500 would be a safe
foundation and good beginning
to which further donation may
be added and it was recognized
as not amiss to estimate $500 to
$1,000 could be raised in total, or
as much thereof as may be nee
essary to finance the organiza-
ton for at least one year and
doing this in a manner justify
ing much good work by the or
ganization and warranting the
expectation for much benefit.
Mr.. Walter Weaver took the
floor and announced having just
received some very encouring
and gratifying correspondence
from the Hon. j. M. Dickinson,
Secretary of War, to the effect
that he, Secretary Dickinson had
succeeded in getting the Presi-
dent of the United States, the
Hon. w. H. Taft to visit Colum-
bus next Fall, as viii be seen in
another part of the Commercial.
Upon motion by Mr.. /. III.
Sykes seconded by Mr.. T. J.
Locke, Jr.. and unanimously
carried the Secretary was direct
ed to acknowledge by letter to
Mr.. Dickinson the grateful appre-
citation of the Business Mems
League and the people of the
city of Columbus and Lowndes
county generally for his consid-
crate and successful efforts in
inducing the President to pay us
a visit. 1t being generally rec
ognized and acknowledged that
Columbus being the boyhood
home of Secretary Dickinson was
a fitting and appropriate credit
for his love and friendship to-
wards this city and its people.
This motion carried also thanks
to Hons. Walter Weaver and
James T. Harrison for having
engaged the attention of Secre-
tary Dickinson to this important
and highly appreciated recogni-
ton on the part of President
Taft.
1t was understood that P. w.
Maer and w. C. Mcclure would
continue to act in the capacity of
President and Chairman respect
lively temporarily, pending per-
manent organization being per-
fected.
There being no further busi-
ness or discussion the meeting
was adjourned by the Chairman
to meet again next Tuesday
evening at $50 p. m. sharp.
July 10th, at City Hall.
