The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-02-25

this paper, last week. over the signature of
lhos. q. Lawson, was in manuscript not type
written, and it reached so late that it was
hurried to the Atlanta Office for fear it would
be too late for that issue,-hence we did not
read it until the paper came out.
Knowing the high character and great ability
OF Judge Lawson, we fully expected him to so
strongly present his side of the George Bell
case as to relieve it from odium.
Imagine then, Our astonishment at finding
that the eminent citizen and jurist does not
touch the vital point, at all
Those who represent Bell in the effort to
regain his liberty, had declared that he had
not been legally committed IN THE FIRST
INSTANCE.
Messrs. Mcneil and Lilburn had charged
that the ten days notice required by law to
Bells relatives had not been given and that
Bell himself was not before the jury and there
fore not examined by them.
The whole case pfvots there. Unless the
notice was given, and unless the jury had Bell
before them for examination the law of the
land was violated, fagrantly, when this citi-
zen Of Georgia was sent to the mad-house
In vain do we scan Judge Lawson's long
letter for any word of denial on that controlling
fact in the case.
The Judge fills nearly two columns with ex-
plantations and denials, concerning the Baldwin
County jury, which passed on Bells case after
he had been sent to Milledgeville, but there
isn't word about that Emanuel County jury
which committed him to the asylum, in his alb
sence
Ah Tudge-dont we know how presump
tons Shift places? Before Bells commitment,
as an insane man, the presumption was that
he was sane But after he had been sent to
the santarium, under legal FORMS the presump
ton was that he was insane. Hence, the ire
mendous Importance of the facts alleged
against his first commitment.
The Judge says that Bells father and broth
ers have not questioned the propriety of his in
generation Patience, Judge: this mornings
papers (Feb 49, inform us that this point is
lost to you: the father and the brother are join
ing hands with that woman hailing from
somewhere north of Mason and Dixon's line"
Since when have we men of the South begun
to narrow our conception of humanity by sec
tonal limits, refusing to believe that sister
of Mercy may hail from somewhere north Of
Mason's and Dixon's line"
Very noble and unselfsh, it seems to us, is
the effort being made by Mrs. Blanche Burton
to rescue this inmate of the asylum who has
been held in prison for several years. Who
cares that she is an actress? What does it
matter if she was born in some other section?
The only question is: Was George Bell law
fully committed to mad-house, and should he
be kept in confinement for the reason that he
is insane, within the meaning of the statutes.
Judge Lawson cites, as an evidence of Bells
madness, his belief that he can hold conversa-
tons with persons not present.
Under sucha strange rule as that w. /.
Stead the world-f famous journalist of London,
would have to go to the asylum, instanter Mr.

residences of the lower side district have
been suffering because of "a strike of

closing OF 200 bakeries owned by members

shops have been kept open since the be-

have been raided, and the bakers assault

that itewould have meant ruin for them
to continue to keep their shops open,
and they hope to bring the strikers to
