Attack on Supreme Court,

Roossvelt's Attack On Supreme Court.
From the New York sun.
There could not be more striking
illustration OF Colonel Roosevelt's ca
pacity for error than Is to be found In
his attack upon the supreme court OF
the United States at Denver. Monday.
His criticism indicated total misap-
prehension of the constitutional doc
trine which empowers the highest tri-
bunal in the land to annul legislative
enactments under certain circum-
stances and declare statutes to be void
and of no effect. When the supreme
court OF the United States exercises
this power 1t Is obeying the voice Of
the people In the highest sense. This
proposition is absolutely true. and vet
1t Is very little understood. A consti-
tuition Is the only law we have which
is adopted and enacted BY the people
themselves It Is the highest law
the fundamental law--which the peo-
pie have declared shall be supreme
over all other laws and shall control
whever there Is any conflict. When,
therefore. the supreme court OF the
United States adjudges an act OF con-
gress or state statute to be uncon-
stitutional that tribunal merely deter.
mines that such act OF congress or
such statute Is In conflict with the will
OF the people and hence Its enforce
ment is not to be tolerated.

Light INFANTRY GOING
TODAY TO THOMASVILLE
Military is Sent There BY
Governor.
Americus Troops to Pro-
tect Prisoner to Be
Hanged There.

The Americas Light Infantry, forty
strong and under command of Captain
Brown McLendon has been ordered to
Thomasville this morning to assist the
Thomasville Guards in preserving or
der at the execution of the negro,
Harris, who will be hanged there to-
day for the fearful crime of rape.
The order for the Americus military
to proceed to Thomasville came early
yesterday morning from His Excellen-
cy, Governor Brown.
The company was ready to responN
at an hours notice and fully equipped
could have gone by the noon train
had such haste been deemed neces-
sary. 1t required but short time to
give the troops notice.
Since the conviction and sentence
of Harris to be hanged he has been
confined in the jail at Macon fol
safe keeping, so intense is the feel
ing in Thomas county.
Early this morning the sheriff OF
Thomas will bring the black field by
way of Amerfcus, en- route to Thomas
vile, where merited punishment at
the ropes end awaits him. The Amer
icus Light Infantry will join the
sheriff here and protect his prisoner
until their destination is reached.
The execution will take place be-
fore noon and the Light Infantry will
return here tonight

LITTLE BABE Is FOUND
SNUGGLED IN BASKET,
Brought a Distance of a
thousand Miles.

Conductor Hurley, of the Seaboard,
was in Americus- yesterday morning
at the end of run, and told most
interesting story Of little passenger
aboard his train out of Montgomery
the day before, tiny bit of humanity
that had made a trip of a thousand
miles in a basket
Conductor HUXLEY observed a male
passenger handling a covered market
basket with great care, and was
prompted to ask what the willow re-
| Fceptacle contained.
Without replying the man remoy-
ed the cover and showed Capt. Hur-
ley dimpled baby a month old
ut is my baby" he quietly yentur-
ed, "and am carrying it back to our
old home. It's mother died in Okla
homa recently, and I am carrying the
little one-my baby-back to Stew
art county, near Lumpkin, where I
married its mother a year ago and
then moved West"
The little chap was sleeping COM
fortably, and seemed in the pink Of
condition.
The Georgia wife of one year, as
stated, had died a thousand miles
away from her home, and her little
babe was being brought back by it's
father to her mother in Stewart coun-
ty, who could best rear it and>care
for it.
The devoted father handled it as
carefully as he would a precious gem
and never left the seat upon which
the basket reposed. He carried a small
alcohol stove, and with this warmed
up the milk given the little traveller.
After three days en- route he reached
the old home near Lumpkin.
While in the union station at Mont
gomery a party of ladies found the
basket in the waiting room and sem
sation resulted momentarily until the
father, returning from the lunch coun-
ter, explained that it was not a mod
ern Moses.

HOME RATES
TO SUMTER COUNTY.
First Excursion to Come
Over in July.
Interest in This Section
is Growing Rapidly
Across Border.

AS a result of the great interest
shown in the lands of Sumter county
by farmers in South Carolina, as a
result of the advertising the county
has received from various agencies
during the past year or two, and to
meet the demand for an opportunity
to inspect the county with a view to
locating here, the Central of Georgia
railway and the Seaboard will give
special home-seekers' rates to Amer
icus, beginning in July, for certain
dates each month for that month and
probably several other months.
It is understood that the Central
will arrange with the Southern for
these special round trip rates from
Columbia, Spartanburg and Green
vile to Americus, the first excursion
to be in effect about July Is.
The Seaboard has the matter under
consideration and a favorable reply
is expected from that road in a day
or two.
Yesterday Mr. George R. Brannan,
travelling passenger agent of the
Central, was in the city, in consul
tation with Messrs. Waddell and En-
glish. These enterprising realty
agents have been extensively advertis-
ing Sumter county in all of the lead
ing papers of South Carolina and the
fruits are seen in the desire of a large
number of farmers there to visit
Americus and investigate Sumter
county during the summer months.
The rate that will be given is about
two-thirds of the usual rate.
On the first home-seekers' excursion
rates it is believed between fifty and
one hundred sterling farmers of Caro-
lima will come to this city. Indeed,
it would not be surprising if the num-
er ran to a greater total than that.
There is no longer any doubt that
Sumter is to see flood of immi igrants
from tie Carolinas within the next
year. Advices from other sources In
dicate a most remarkable degree OF
interest in this section.

FOUR WEEKS MORE AND

With Full Ranks.

On Saturday, june is, just foGr
weeks off, the Americus Light Infan-
try will leave for the seaside camp
where they Ia get a week or ten
days instructio4P in military lie, un-
der the eyes of ia 2 regular army
officers stationed at the fort there
Discuss 'ng the coming eacampme4t
the Columbus Ledger says:
Matters in local military circles
are very lively at present. The Off
GERS who have returned from the
training school for officers which has
been in session at Fort Mcpherson
have been given new inspiration and
the entire fourtb battalion is per-
haps In a more prosperous condition
tha nit has ever been in the his
tory of the battalion.
Perhaps the greatest cause of re-
joicing among the soldier boys is the
fact that it has been practically SCI
tied that the members of the fourth
battalion will go into encampment this
year at Fort Screven, a few miles
below Savannah. The boys have had
a strong desire to go into camp there
all the while as they feared they We're
going to be denied the privilege.
Fort Screven is an army post fol
coast artillery and one of the most
inviting points in the entire army
service, and the local boys are very en-
thusiastic over the likelihood of go
ing into camp there for week or ten
days. Both of the Columbus com
panies are exceedingly anxious to
have as large a number of the boys
go to Fort Screven as possible and it
is now believed that there will be 4
large percentage of them who will
go.
"The Columbus boys propose to
leave the city on the night of Satur-
day, June 18th, and reach the fort
next morning, when they will pitch
their camp for a week or ten days
They are looking forward to one of
the most beneficial camps that they
have ever had Certainly a better
place for the encampment could not
have been secured than Fort Screven
'"The encampment will be on the
government reservation and there
fore under the supervision of the gov
eminent. This fact alone will be
worth much to the boys~of the fourth
battalion, for they will be given an
insight as to how matters in military
circles are conducted higher up"
-Four companies compose the mem
bership of the fourth battalion. These
companies are two from Columbus
and one eacb from Albany and Amer
icus. All of these companies are in
flattering condition and Maj. MoZer
the commander, is very much pleas.
