PLAINS ROAD GETTING
FINISHING TOUCHES
In Spring Fine Road Will
Be Built to EIIaviIIe.

The recent heavy rain was needed
by nothing more than it was needed
by the county for the completion of ats
work on the Plains road. That county
highway had been put in fine condi,
tion so far as grading was concerned
and stretched a fine tnIrty foot avenue
from Americus to Plains. But owing
to the continued drought the dirt was
in a poWdry shape and could not be
treated to the finishing touches needed
to put it on d parity with the Smith
vile road. All that was needed was &
good rainfall and that of the present
week accomplished all that was de.
sired. 1t packed down the dirt anG
put in in admirable shape for Supt
Christian to go over and finish the
at work since the rain and the road Is
now rapidly approaching the perfec-
tion that marks the other recently
built roads.
No more permanent road improve
ments will probably be undertaken
from now until spring. During the
winter the convicts will be used in
keeping the roads up and their atten-
ton will be especially centered on ole
roads that have not yet been perman-
emily bettered. In the spring, as soor
as conditions permit, the gang will be
laville road, a stretch that runs
through a good section of the county
and that connects large part ot
Sumter county with Schley county
This road will be handled just as the
Smithville and Plains roads have beer
handled. 1t will be made into a level
well drained, straight as possible
thirty foot wide public highway. This
news will be welcome intelligence Il
the public in large section traverseC
by the road in question. 1t is quite
likely that when Sumter has the roaC
perfected to the Schley county linz
that the officials Of that county vii
take hold and build equally as good
road in continuation clear through Il
Ellaville This would mean fin'
highway from Americus to Ellaville
something that would meet the need
of large population and reflect credi
upon the two counties concerned.

ALCOHOL In MEDICINES.

Alcohol is the best known preserva-
tive of medical compounds, and the
average proprietary medicine contains
from Is per cent to % per cent, which
is the smallest possible amount to
preserve the ingredients, while the
average doctors prescription contains
from 25 per cent to so per cent.
Such standard preparations as Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
contain but 18 per cent, and they even
put the Compound up in tablet form,
which the over-scrupulous woman,
who objects to alcohol in any degree,
may use.

The atlanta Recorders Court

NAOSO
ure that you have reached the con-
clusion that the Recorders Court is
without constitutional right to SEN
tence people to penal servitude.
| made my initial appearance in
the Recorders Court about twelve
months ago. [ was employed to
represent man charged with keep
ing on hand for purposes Of illegal
sale intoxicating liquors, in violation
of the city ordinances. My case was
set for trial at two-thirty p. M, and
was actually tried about five. In the
interim, the Recorder tried fifty or
seventy-fve cases, sending large
majority of the defendants to the
stockade, without the privilege of
relieving themselves of the punish
ment by the payment of fine To
say that [ was horror-stricken is put
ting it mildly. The climax of my
establishment and Indignation was
reached" when he sounded the case
of a spectable-looking white man,
who was charged with constructive
contempt of his court, and after a
brief hearing, which consisted of an
affirmation Of his guilt by the detec-
tive and denial by himself, a SEN
tence was imposed of thirty days in
the stockade.
The enormity of this palpable in
vasion of the constitutional rights of
this man was magnified by the fol-
lowing train of thought, as I sat and
listened in bewildered amazement to
the medieval methods of his dealing
with human beings. This man, who,
if guilty of any offense, was guilty of
the offense of constructive contempt
of the Recorder of the city of At
lanta, must serve in shackles SEN
tence of thirty days on the public
works of the city Of Atlanta, with all
the horrible concomitants incident
to the servitude, when he might
be guilty Of an actual contempt of
any court in this government, from
the humble magistrates court of the
State of Georgia up to that mighty
and mitred tribunal that controls the
destinies of this republic, namely, the
Supreme Court of the United States,
and the limit of the right of any of
these to deal with him would be the
imposition of fine and imprison-
ment; and that it would cost any of
these judges, up to and including the
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of the United States, his position
through the medium of impeach-
ment, if they or any of them under
took to consign their fellow man to
involuntary servitude.
l was not aware at that time of the
novel and extraordinary procedure
prevailing in the Recorders Court
l was unfamiliar with the power
which the Legislature undertook to
confer upon that august" tribunal
| was not aware that the Legislature
had authorized him, without trial by
jury, to send people to the stockade.
1t was inconceivable to my mind that

Ouly W removed by the use OF cold
chisel. The irons on each leg are
connected by chains. They work, eat
and sleep in the same clothing. They
wake, eat, toll, rest and sleep in
manacles and chains, and their prog
ress to and from their work is pub
lie, and they work on the public
streets Of Atlanta before the public
eye. They are watched at all times
by convict guards armed with deadly
weapons, who will kill them if they
attempt to escape. They are liable
to public and severe whippings by the
Whipping-boss, with a heavy leathern
strap, about two and one-half or three
feet long, with solid hand grasp, and
with broad, heavy and flexible lash,
and If, forsooth, they escape, they are
pursued by bloodhounds that are kept
on hand for this purpose.
My investigation of conditions fur
Their disclosed that they had a patent
machine which worked upon a hori-
zontal bar, into which recaIcitrant
cony1cts are strapped, to the end that
the unmerciful beatings that are ad-
ministered to them may be facili-
tated. So far as my investigations
have extended no other prisons in the
country have made this progress co
in the art of the administration of
corporal punishment to the unfor-
tunate inmates.
My establishment was intensified
and my horror greatly augmented up-
on learning that at that date there
were about two hundred and sixty
conVicts in the city stockade, who had
found their way there through the
avenue of the Recorders Court of
the city of Atlanta, and that the mum
Der usually confined there ranged
from two to five hundred souls or
about one-fourth as many as are con-
fined in the penitentiary of the State
of Georgia.
Almost without reward or hope
thereof, I undertook the Herculean
task Of re-establishing in the city Of
Atlanta the ancient and sacred con-
stitutional rights incident to citizen
ship. AS I read the history of the
origin, growth and development of
trial by jury, find no parallel to the
conditions prevailing in the city Of
Atlanta. Indeed, the conflict of our
ancestors for trial by jury, which re-
suited in glorious victory for them
after the struggle had lasted for more
than two centuries, was not a protest
against trial and condemnation by
one man-for it was never supposed
even in those times that one man
could try and convict and consign to
Infamous punishment fellow man
but it was protest against the Gus
tom which then prevailed of the IT,
tied classes trying the common peo~
pie, the custom being for a committee
of lords, who called themselves a
jury, to try the common people; so
| say the conflict was waged, not so
much around the right Of trial by
jury per Sc, but was fought for the
