EVERY DEMOCRAT SHOULD VOTE

The state campaign committee mas
appoited Saturday, November IND,
Wilson and Marshall Day in Georgia,
and it is proposed to hold mass meet
ings and rallies at that time in every
city. town and hamlet in the interest
of the national ticket.
Speeches will be made setting
forth the issues of the campaign and
urging Georgia democrats to go to
the polls on November 9th in order
that when Woodrow Wilson is in
the presidential chair at the white
house Georgia can occupy her right
full place in the nations councils as
one of the solidest and strongest
democratic fortresses.
The arrangements for Georgia
rally day are being made through
the state headquarters, of which
Senator w. J Harris is chairman
He has received letters promising CO.
operation from executive committee
men and county chairmen in all parts
of the state. In a letter to the editor
of The News Mr.. Harris says
unless the democrats in the
state take hold of this election |
fear the Wilson vote is going to be
smaller than it should be- The
Roosevelt and Taft people are very
active, and are sending out ten
times more literature than we are
sending We have not collected a
cent for our state campaign, as we
wish every dollar possible to go to
the doubtful states, and it is abso-
lutely necessary for some hard work
to be done in every section OF
Georgia"
A democratic victory all over the
country and a small majority for
Wilson and Marshall in Georgia
would be humiliating TO the demo-
Gratis of the state, and it is important
that they awake TO the situation and
turn out to the polls in full num-
bers. Especially does The News urge
the democrats of Terrell to do their
duty, and we believe they will

Whitley" Lewis was the next witness.
He sat far out on the chair In an atu-
tude OF eagerness to answer questions lie
went over practically the same story that
Horowitz had told. except that he per-
sisted in wanting to add so many details
AT times that Justice Goff had TO caution
him TO confne himself 10 answering the
questions.
The Jury seemed to lose interest in the
story as Il was being retold. Some OF the
Jurors took the opportunity to doze
little. They we're aroused suddenly now
and then when Whitley" raised his voice
TO a high pitch and employed frenzied
gesticulations.
The witness said he was also known as
Frank Muller, but that his right name
was Jacob Seidenshaler. He had known
ZeIIg for eight years, and been closely as
socIated with him, he said. The witness
said that Rose had never mentioned the
name of Rosenthal upon any OF his vari-
GUS visits to one or another Of the de-
PENDANTS. lie had always been trying

STILL ON MTSKY'S" TRAIL
Judge Swami Keeps On With
out Police Aid.

Judge Edward Swami, of the Court or
General Sessions, who last summer told
OF the unavailing efforts he made to have
the police lock up Lefty Louie,
Whitley" Lewis and a man known as
"Itsky," all OF whom at that time were
believed TO have been in the gray auto
mobile which carried away the slayers OF
Herman Rosenthal, has not given up his
efforts to find 'Itsky."
'Itsky" was first brought TO Judge
SWANS attention BY Joseph Hickman,
who after being convicted OF robbery In
June, 1911, told Judge Swami that in the
same gang with him were Lefty Louie"
and a man known as 'Itsky." The latter
he described as Russian Jew gambler
five feet ten inches tall stout and with
an exceptional chest expansion. He Is
about twenty-seven years old, according
70 Hickman, is clean shaver. has thick
neck and a straight nose and dresses
stabbily. At that time Hickman said he
was TO be found near Yaret street and
Graham avenue. Brooklyn. or in saloon
at No. los Humboldt street.
Judge Swami would not go so far as TO
say yesterday that ne thougnt ltsh!
might be the unknown man" named by
"Gyp the Blood" but he was anxious to
see II he was the same 'Itsky" mentioned
as a passenger I'm the gray car. Recently
Judge Swami wrote TO the superintendent
OF Elmlra Reformatory, where Hickman
was sent, asking him to find out anything
he could OF the mysterious "Itsky. y
Hickman had been discharged, and the
Superintendent could find none Of his
other charges who acknowledged &C.
quaintance with 'Itsky."
Judge Swami has had to make such in
vestigations as he has undertaken at his
own expense. as no money is allowed
him for detective fees. After his previou.
experience In trying TO coax the police &c
find "Itsky" for him he was unwilling TO
call on them for assistance.

was one OF the exhibits OF the prosecu-
ton In the courtroom. Mr.. Moss reached
down into Il and extracted two formid-
able looking revolvers. He handed theni
TO the witness and asked him II he had
ever seen them before.
Lefty" appeared to look them over
with the eye of a connoisseur, and re-
piled that they had been in his trunk.
How did they get in your trunk
asked Mr. Moss.
"a friend of mine, Louis Smith, brought
them 10 our fat one day and told me ne
had bought the two pistols from
drunk for Is cents" the witness SAID
II took them away from Smith, telling
him he would get arrested II he canied
them around, and threw them into my
trunk When | sent the trunk away 10
my aunts they went with it.
One OF the pistols was a long-barreued
affair evidently what might be called
practice gun" to perfect ones accuracy
in the use of firearms The other was
80 calbre, pearl handled, and OF the
sure and deadly" variety.
Mr.. Moss allowed the witness TO hoIu
the last gun for a brief pause In ms
questions. and suddenly he asked:
Didn't you have that 80 calibre re-
tt.Ith no NIGHT were IN
front Of the Metropole and wasn't It dis
charged at that time?'
Lefty" could hardly wait for Mr.. Moss
TO finish his question. He started TO
answer before the prosecutor had COM
pleted the question, and Mr. Moss raised
his hand for him to wait. Then the wit
ness denied in a loud voice that he had
been armed on the night Rosenthal was
shot. He said he had never carried the
revolver Mr.. Moss referred 10, and that
the said revolver had never been fired.
II never carried a pistol in my life
said the witness with a little show OF
emotion. more than he had shown at any
time before during his testimony.
Mr.. Moss showed Lefty" a picture OF
himself on horseback, dressed as q cow
boy, with a revolver IN his hand.
You NJ least were carrying a gun at
that time" Mr.. Moss remarked.
That is all ever used them for-just
10 have my pictures taken with them,
was 'Lefty's" quick reply.
1t is understood that the state may call
revolver expert to prove that the gun
found in Lefty Louies trunk had been
fired and not long before II was found.
The trunk was traced to the house OF
Rosenberg aunt a few days after the
murder. II was the opinion OF DR..
Schultz. the coroncr's physician. and
other witnesses, that the bullets found
in Rosenthars body and in the easement
at the Metropoe were OF .32 calibre.
