morning.
The report was In circulation yestesday
that the Ford case would not be tried In
the recorders court and Judge Lane was
very indignant. when the recent strike
trouble was on here" said Judge Lane
''one of the members or the Master Build
ers association came to me and asked
that his case be taken out of the record
er's court. He stated that he feared ne
would not receive justice before Judge
Wood. I refused bim and | will refuse
Mr.. Ford or anyone else. Everyone has
been and will be treated alike.
THE only way to take the Ford case
out of the hands of the recorder will 5e
to arrest him on a warrant from some
other court and then mol PROSE- the
case before the recorder. Otherwise the
recorder will hear the case first as the
police made the first arrest"

News of Ensley

The unusual circumstance of a negro
trying to serve a warrant which he had
sworn out resulted disastrously for Will
McLemore Monday night. McLemore
had a warrant from Green county for
Laura Bonner. Laura resisted arrest at
the hands of the would-be officer Of the
law, who then attempted to enforce the
warrant by assault Failing In this he
asked the police to make the arrest and
when this was done requested that the
prisoner be turned over to him for return
to Green county.
Sergeant James Brodie promptly re-
fused to do this and when the woman
explained the manner in which McLe-
more tried to make the arrest, the SER
geant entered a charge of assault and
battery against the would-be deputy.
Judge Lowry yesterday morning imposed
fine OF SIS and 30 days imprisonment
against McLemore and allowed the wom-
an to go free.

Political Uplift
Mr.. Underwood preached the doctrine

Mr. Underwood said the adoption OF

the other changing the fiscal policy OF

Ill Considered Proposals

What may be regarded as radical today
may be the inner citadel of conservatism
tomorrow. The danger that confronts us
in the onward march of the nation comes
from the hasty adoption of ill-consldered
proposals, sometimes coming from honest
but ill-advised advocates of real progress,
and as often coming from the cunning
hlreiings of reactionary interests who
would under the name of progress start
false movement to mislead and con-
fuse in the hope of that they may delay
the day when special privilege shall be
divorced from our economic and govern
mental system. We should move forward
with conservatism that will avoid a re-
action in public sentiment and abandon
a radical on-rush that may lead to dis
aster or delay the accomplishment of a
good result

CHAPTER TX.
The Bitter Fruit.

Fortune had a hearty contempt for
persons who ate their breakfast in
bed For her the glory of the day was
the fresh fairness OF the morning,
when every ones step was buoyant.
and all life stirred energetically. There
was cheer and hope everywhere; men
faced their labors with clear eye and
feared nothing; women sang at their
work. 1t was only at the close of day
highways. So she was up with the
sun, whether in her own garden or in
these odd and mystical cities. Thus
she saw the native as he was, not as
he later in the day pretended to be,
for the benefit of the Feringhi about
to be stretched upon the sacrificial
stone. She saw, with gladness. the
honey-bee Thrilling the rose, the plow-
mans share barring the soil; the morn
ing, the morning, the two or three
hours that were all. all her own. Her
mother was always irritable and petu-
liant in the morning, and her uncle
never developed the gift of speech till
after luncheon.
She had the same love Of prowling
that lured Ryanne from the beaten
paths. She was not inQuisitive but
curious, and that ready disarming
smile of hers opened many a portal.
She was balancing upon her gloved
palm. thoughtfully, a Soudanese head

these.
