SUFFRAGETTES AGREE
TO WEAR OLD GOWNS;
GIVE FUNDS TO CAUSE

NEW YORK Oct. 17.-Suffrasists In
large numbers have vowed not to buy
single new dress or new hat until the
suffrage amendment has been safely
turned over by the legislature to the
voters Of New York state in 1918.
Il suppose some Of us will look pretty
dowdy before November 1915" said
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Batch, the orig
inator of the plan, but whenever any
one makes any remark about our APP
pearance we can explain that our hus-
bands aren't stingy or anything of that
sort. We are merely wearing our ref
erendum clothes. All the money that
would otherwise have gone 10 the dec
Grating of our persons we will turn
over to the treasurer of the Womens
Political union, and we hope by this
means to raise an immense fund for our
campaign.
1--WE are having some purple, white
and green pledge cards printed which
we will send to all our members and to
other suffragists as well. Those who
sign them win have TO forego not only
frocks and millinery, but also the pleas
ure of buying Christmas gifts, wedding
gifts and birthday gifts for their friends
The pledge isn't an easy one to keep
but no victory worth having is won
without sacrifice"

CUMMING PEOPLE
ASK AID To END
CRIME WAVE
Whites Appeal for State and
Federal Assistance to Sup
press LaWIeSSnesS. 4

CUMMING GA, Oct. 17.--Both Fed
eral and state aid is asked by the law
abiding white citizens Of Cumming and
Forsyth county in the suppression OF
the reign of lawlessness that has in
termittently prevailed in this county
for more than a month, following as
saults on white women by negroes.
At largely attended mass meeting
held at the court house last night. res
olutions were adopted calling on Judge
William T. Newman. of the United
States district court, and Governor Jo-
seph NJ. Brown to adopt vigorous meas
ures to suppress violence and restore
order in the county. Copies OF these
resolutions were mailed today to Judge
Newman and Governor Brown and will
be received by them tomorrow morn
ing
Judge Newman is asked to send Fed
eral officers into this county to inves-
tigate the sending through the mails of
threatening notices 10 both whites and
negroes, warning them to leave the
county or suffer the consequences.
Ask Guard For Hanging.
Governor Browns attention is called
to the fact that two hangings are to
take place here next week. He is asked
to send a military guard to prevent vio-
lence at that time. His attention is
also called to the fact that Ave negro
churches have been burned and that
numerous houses, some occupied by
whites and others by negroes. have
been fired into by unknown parties
under cover Of darkness He is asked
to have state officers-the military II
ecessary-inv estigate these depreda-
tions and bring the guilty parties ID
justice.
The threatening notices, burning Of
churches and shooting into houses have
caused a general exodus of negroes
from Forsyth county. Those who own
property are selling it and moving
away, while negro tenants have fed by
the score. The farmers Of the county
are practically without negro labor The
few negroes remaining in the county
are almost as a whole in the town of
Cumming and they are leaving daily.

sided over by Mayor c. L. Harris. J. r
Echols was secretary. The best citi-
Gems Of the town and county attended.

Known on the Rowery
Habitues of the Bowery recalled
Schrank as an apparently harmless, in
offensive crank. He was described as a
German with a somewhat noticeable ac-
cent, yellow hair and a reddish brown
beard. Only one man penetrated the air
of excluslveness with which he surround
ed himself. That was Jack Walker, a
bartender who said he and Schrank often
discussed general affairs over a glass of
beer
According to Walker. Schrank appar-
emily had few friends and absolutely nc
| intlmates. He was always quiet in man
ner, and in his conversation never dis
cussed himself. While he had been heard
TO say that he considered Roosevelt a
menace to the country, there was never
anything in his conversation that led
those in contact with him to believe that
he held luminosity toward the Progressive
presidential candidate.

Few Men of Such
Caliber in Any Land

LONDON. Oct. 1.-THE Heroic
mcid' is the title under which The
Pail Mall Gazette voices its COM
ment upon the attempted assassination
of Theodore Roosevelt and high tribute
was paid to the wounded American 1t
said
Not only the American people, but
the civilized world viii rejoice at the
escape of Colonel Roosevelt from the
maniacal attack which has befallen
him. The amazing and characteristic
GOODNESS with which the ex-presldent
bore the assault and its consequences
must touch every instinct which re.
spends TO chivalry and elf-control.
The picture of statesman insisting
on proceeding with his address. with
q bullet freshly imbedded in his breast,
is almost too staggeringly dramatic for
our British ideas TO comprehend. We
have not the atmosphere Of new. hetreo-
genous, uncouth democracy which
would create such an Inspiration.
But Colonel Roosevelt knows his
people and he believes he is fighting a
battle of character against corruption
and his instinct told him that the
chance had come to give the world as
surance of a man. and Roosevelt is a
man. let us take what views we may
of his methods, his temperament or Of
his opinions. The movement Of which
he has become the head represents the
craving OF the American people for
honesty, courage and decisive govern
ment in their affairs. They mead a

j. Beveridge, former senator from In

mel Roosevelt's message to the nation,
dictated from the coloners sick bed In
Mercy hospital, in Chicago.
TT matters little about me" Colonel
Roosevelt told Mr.. Beveridge. but 1t
matters all about the cause we fight
for. If one soldier who happens to
carry the flag is stricken, another will
take it from his hands and carry it on.
You know that personally l did not

nobly in their day
Colonel Roosevelt was scheduled to
speak in Louisville last night. Senator
Beverage was sent in his stead
And now as then it is not impor-
tant whether one leader lives or dies.
continues the message 1T is important
only that the cause shall live and win.
Tell the people not to worry about me,
for If | go down another will take my
place. For always the army is there;
always the cause is there, and it is the
cause for which the people care. 1t is
the peoples cause" "
Senator Beveridge said
This is his message TO all his coun-
trymen. He gave it clearly and calmly
not recklessly nor with fever; not in
the heat of battle, not in bitterness,
nor yet in self-pride, but with cool
mind and kindly heart
He bade me put it thus to the peo-
Pile" continued Mr.. Beverage. 1--WE

greed of those who have and the greed

of their politics and to cut the bonds
which strange both government and
justice.
The scene which shows Colonel
Roosevelt first protecting his would be
slayer and then proceeding with his
unstaunched wound to deliver his ad e.
dress will be stamped deeply upon the

 Counsel fer Alexander contended for "a several on the ground that the verdict ill the first trial on the ques- aion of insanity of the accused, was confllary to 'the weight of evidence. The court on the point says: "The evidence was conflicting and the yer dict should be sustained. there be- ing stuff cient evidence to walrrant the. finding that the appellant was sane
 The killing occurred in saloon over a gamIe of cards and there is no substantial difference in the mar ratives of the witnesses. Alexander himself did not testify and adduced nio testimony excstpt %s' establish a Jack of mem al capacity making him responsible for the deed.
 No Da.t of ts'e courts charge was rbjeelsed to, but in the appeal the directors as to the form of the vetr- dict were urged as orrcr, although nks objection was made at the sime.

Attorney w. B. Sorrells, of Pine Bluff, counsel for Alexander, made hard fight for his client, not only ill the Supreme Court, but in the cir chit courts of his district. He first secured postponement of the case and the calling of commission to pass on AleXander's sanity After failing to establish his clients alleg- ed mental weakness, he secured a change of venue to Desha county, where Alexander was convicted. Real izing that his last hope was with the Supreme Court, Mr. Sorrells appealed the case and filed a lengthy brief, in which he argued various points of law carefully in an effort to get new trial for the defencant. AleXan- der is now in the state penitentiary, where he was taken some weeks ago by Deputy Sheriff R. H. Williams for safe keeping.

Thare is nothing whatever ill the recor to- relieve the crime of fas a.roc,ty, if as the jury found, the dsceassd was mentally capable of committing it.
