Solution

CHICAGO. March t.--With The

declaration that the greatest problem

devoted to a discussion of Regulation

Prof. G. w. Wright. OF Chicago uni
versity, declared that after 20 years
ding of trusts TO exist, the trusts have
grown numerous and powerful.
Our methods have yielded TO re-
Suits" he said. I'VE have let the
trusts grow up and then turned them
over TO the courts to be condemned
and dissected, procrastinating and
uncertain process. The reason OF
failure is obvious. We must strike
at the root OF the evil We must pre-
vent instead of attempting TO al
leviate. Regulation is the only
methods OF preventing trust evils and
this cannot be called panacea for
| ell the complexities of the problem.
G.. w. Simmons, the only business
man on the morning program, de.
manded an end of lawyers law and

1T seems an unwritten law that no
man can occupy the white house IN

REASONS FOR POTTLE'S REELECTION
Given by Representative Citizens from
Every Section of the State

The following address has been issued
to the people of the state of Georgia by
a committee of prominent citizens, rep
resenting the various sections of the
state:
At the primary election to be held on
August 81, 1912, Hon. J. r. Pottle will he
candidate for reelection to the posi-
ton as Judge of the court of appeals. The
undersigned, acting for ourselves, but also
as a committee selected by his friends
from the various sections of the state, feel
that our acquaintance with Judge Pottle
and with his qualifications, attainments
and work justifies us in submitting to your
consideration the following statement and
reasons why, in our opinion it is to the
best interest of the people of this state
that he should be retained in his present
position:
First and foremost should be mentioned
his eminent qualifications for the position.
He is a lawyer of unusual ability He has
the judicial temperament in a marked
degree. His career has been such as TO
give him special training for the charac-
ter of work required in this office. For a
number of years ne was one of the law
clerks in the supreme court, and he fol-
lowed this with several years Of active
and varied practice; and at the time Of
his appointment was universally recog-
nized as one of the most upright, sldllful
and successful lawyers in the state.
While he has been on the bench for only
q little more than six months, a close
examination of the opinions he has rem
dered will show that we are fully justified
in the high estimate which we have placed
upon his ability as a judge
We further commend him Is polished
gentleman of high personal character
strict integrity and unusual Intellectual
attainments.
It seems to us that the present oppo-
sition to him is very untmely. 1t has
been the CUSTOM good custom as we see
il. and one that commends itself to all
fair-mlnded thinking people. that an APP
pointee to an office Of this character
should have the opportunity Of perfectng
his career and of showing what is in him
before he is called upon to contest for
his position, and especially should this
be true Of one who shows so much prom
Use Of usefulness, and against whom
naught can be said. as is true in the ca Sc
Of Judge PottIe. The present opposition
to Judge Pottle is against all precedent

hotel. David Mulvane, former national
committeeman from Kansas, was in
charge Senator Joseph M. Dixon. Of
Montana. national chairman of the Pro
gressive party. was expected to arrive
today for the opening of headquarters,
probably in the Congress hotel just
across the street from the Republicans.
A number of Democratic leaders were
in Chicago making final preparations
for the opening of Democratic head
quarters, and the arrival of William F.
McCombs on Wednesday was expected
to set the ball rolling. For the present
the campaign of the three parties will
be directed from the headquarters here.

To RECALL
T.C.BETTERTON
Chattanooga Voters Circulate
Petition Against City Com
missioner.

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, Aug H.
Greater political excitement than has
existed since the commission form of
government advocates ousted the old
ring" which controlled Chattanooga
has been precipitated here by the APP
pearance of a petition asking the re-
call of 7. G.. Betterton commissioner
of fire and police, formerly a north
Georgia Methodist preacher, in accord
ance with section of the charter of
the city which provides that any COM
missioner may be removed from office
if $40 qualified voters sign recall pc
tition. and an election is held to name
his successor. This it the first time
that an attempt has been made to eX-
ercise the recall under the new city
charter
The appearance of the petition is a
result of the recent race for sheriff of
Hamilton county, when Sam A. Conner,
Republican was elected over w. B
Cleage, Democrat, largely through the
activity, so it is alleged, Of Commits
sioner BettertOn, Democrat
used the influence of his office to the
point where he exercised official OPP
preston over a large part of the Ham
ilton county electorate in accomplish
ing the defeat of Cleage.
The petition asks Commissioner Bet
terton's recall upon six counts-that he
forced employees of the city to take a
pernicious activity in the recent cleo
ton that he engaged in such activity
in person; that his administration has
been arbitrary and tyrannical, that his
personal conduct has been abusive and
profane; that his associations with GER
tain special interests have been to the
detriment of the city; and that his exc
cutiOn of the law has been lax and
partial.
The most serious charge against the
commissioner is that he passed the
word to all the near-beer dealers the
day before the election that he would
close them in accordance with the state
prohibition laws If Conner was not
elected. This charge as well as the
others. is denied by him
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-08-12

That 1t is manifestlv unfair to ask
Judge Pottle to give up the position to
another at this time appears when we
recall that the office was rendered to him
without solicitation on his part, and that
being urged by his friends to undertake
this work he gave up a large and ucra-
tive practice; and yet, now within less
than year. he is asked to give up the
judgeship, Notwithstanding his service
has been so satisfactory
While there is no law against all three
of the judges of this court being selected
from the same county or from the same
section of the state still it is the part
of wisdom that the judges should be Sc
lected, so far as possible. from different
sections. 1t should be kept in mind that
there are a number Of questions of law
constantly arising in each section of the
state which do not arise in the others
The practice in the cities is very different
from the practice in the country counties
the city lawyer may be wholly unfamiliar
with many classes Of cases constantly
arising in country practice. and vice
versa; so that the members of the court
should be selected with this diversity in

elected there would not be man on the
bench to represent that vast section of
the state which lies south of Atlanta.
Believing that Judge Politics. re-elec-
ton is demanded. not only by every ar
gument of fairness and expediency. but
by the needs of the bench itself. we com
mend him to the people of Georgia for
his ability, his honesty. his integrity, his
experience, his special fitness for the WORK

ct of its own nor indorse the ticket of

made today by National Chairman
James II. Ferris, of Joliet, H.. who ar
rived today. Ferris said he believed
the voters should be left free to vote

feeling expressed by the delegates who
have gathered, he said, was that the
party should not take up the cause of
either candidate
The fusionists in our party have
either Joined issues with the Progress
sive party or have identified themselves
with the Democrats" said Chairman
Ferris. In my opinion. it would be
wise for us to draft a strong platform,
reatfirming the planks adopted in St
Louis in April, 1908 Our monetary
plank in which we claim that the is
suance of money is function of the
government, and should not be dele
gated to corpora ton or individual will
be affirmed. The legislation gives con-
gress alone the power to issue money
and regulate the value thereof.
we will, of course, reatfirm initiative
and referendums
We should leave it to our voters to
ballot, and we should not determine
between Roosevelt and Wilson.

BEER CLUBS SESSIONS
ON SUNDAY MORNINGS
OPENED WITH PRAYER

DALTON, GA, Aug. 12.-The dis
banding of an organized beer club in
North Dalton has brought to light an
interesting fact connected with the or
ganlzatiOn. There was one member of
highly religious trend. VINO always in
sisted on opening the clubs meetings
with prayer.
The information comes direct from
one of the members, who states that
the club always received a key of beer
which was tapped on Sunday morn
ing The religious member called the
meeting to order and conducted devo-
tional services while the other members
sat quietly around At the conclusion
of the prayer the kag was tapped and
the meeting lasted as long as the beer
held out.
