SMITH CASE WITH
SUPREME COURT
CASE or CHARLES R. SMITH BEING
TRIED IN THE SUPREME COURT
ATT JACKSON
SMITHS COUNSEL CONFIDENT

Jackson, Miss, June s.
Whether or not Charles r. Smith,
the wealthy planter of Lowndes
county. who early this year shot
and killed E. A. Laurent, a
travelling salesman, at Artesia,
must suffer the sentence of the
the court below to life imprison-
ment, following the verdict of
guilty by the trial jury, or
whether he is entitled to a new
trial and an investigation in lu-
macy, or questions that were
submitted to the supreme court
of this state, this afternoon.
When the court met at 3 o'clock,
Assistant Attorney General Geo.
Butler began his argument for
the state. The trend of Gen.
Buffers argument was to eluci
date and bring out the states
theory of motive, the predicate
of which had been laid on the
strength of Smiths suspicious
in regard to the dead mans rela-
tions with his daughter, his tenn
permanent and tendercy to vio-
lence. He quoted copiously
from similar cases in the juris-
prudence of Mississippi, of Tex
as and other courts, incidental
ly strengthening his argument
on the authority of Wigman,
Wharton and other high author
tiles on evidence.
Hon. C. H. Alexaner, of coun-
sci for the appellant, closed in a
brilliant argument, the gist of
which was to show the tendency
of all the testimony to the
strained condition of mind of the
father.
During the arguments Miss
Estelle Smith sat near her faith
er's counsel, as she had done
yesterday, listening attentively to
every word spoken, but giving
no show or trace of emotion.
Counsel for Smith seemed conf
dent of remand on the strength
of several of their explanations
50 strongly presented.

it an honor, to introduce DR.. AS
well the man who has accomplish
ing SO much for education in the
South. DR.. Aswell's subject was
The Life That Counts in This
Generation. lie spoke along
practical lines. After paying a
beautiful tribute to the State
and it's honored sons, he empha-
sized the great progress in e Iery-
thing and especially the teach
er's life. He urged them to be
proficient, to study the broader
life and to work for the masses.
I'm addressing those just gradu-
ating he insisted that they were
just beginning in life's great
sphere and urged them to give
out what they had learned in so
doing they would grow, and not
TO consider themselves finished
products to adorn the State.
Nothing is so inspiring as to
stimulate others, to develop, lead
and guide them up. Dr. Aswell
believes in public school and col
lege education. 1t stimulates
ambition to measure up-yes
ahead of others. He believes in
personal effort rather than an
cestral record; skill will be
measured bySwhat you do. DR..
Aswell gave interesting bits of
personal experience. One of
marked significance was when
he questioned a young lady
about attending school she said,
Il have graduated" When he
asked her what in? She said in
white. Know yourself; know
how to control yourself, were
the main points of his address.
