This force took every advantage of the
sinuosities of the ground. and crawled
practically undisturbed to the Italian po-
stion. The alarm. however. was given
by the dogs chained to the entanglements.

point which lasted the whole night. the

nearly always had succeeded in surprising
the Italian troops.

AUTO SHOW To Be
BIG AID FOR CITY
"GasoIine Week" Will Be Inaugu-
rated in November as Annual
Event-Sousa To Be Here.

Atlanta's annual Gasoline Week
ment for the city every autumn as
grand opera week is in the spring It
will be inaugurated in November with
the automobile show and the mot r
races at the new autodrome out
Peachtree road.
Now that the Chamber OF Com
merce has Endorsed the motor show
and races and is 7dlng its support
to both, the committees OF the auto
mobile association are working TO
make the show the best ever. Space
has been taken by all the leading
manufacturers, and practically every
car made in America will be repre-
scented
One Of the features this year will
be the music. Sousa's Band has been
engaged for the week. Sousa was the
great hit OF the Atlanta Exposition
years ago, and when he brought his
band for a short stay at the Grand
several seasons past he drew two pig
audiences.
Special rates have been granted on
all the railroads running into At
lanta, and the auto association men,
bers expect more visitors than ever
before. Dealers and agents will sea
the new 1914 models for the first time
at the show, and owners and pro-
spective purchasers may look over
competing lines, study the works"
and make up their minds where TO
put their money.
Wiley West, one Of the leaders In
the association, will leave soon for
Detroit as a delegate to the National
Good Roads Convention, with the de-
termination to land next years meet
ing for Atlanta. II the convention ls
won, It probably will be held stimuli
taneously with the 1914 auto show
and motordrome races.

There is no more effective rem

FRANK s TRIAL NOT
FAIR, SAYS PASTOR
The Rev. A. R. HOIderby BIames
Popular Prejudice and CIamor
for Vengeance.

The Rev. A. r. Holderby. pastor Of
the Moore Memorial Church, deolar-
ed from The pulpit in his Sunday SER
mon that Leo NJ. Frank, convicted
OF the murder OF Mary Phsgan IN
the South's most notable criminal
case. was the victim OF an unfair
trial
The minister described the popular
prejudice and the clamor for VEN
geance following the crime and as
serted that the conditions forbade a
fair trial Of the accused man.
He did not attempt to pass on
Franks guilt or innoncence. nor did
he go into the merits of the case it
self, contentinK himself with the
declaration that, regardless OF Franks
a fair and impartial trial and failed
to get It.
Public Mind Was influenced.
If the trial were conducted with
out vtndictiveness and prejudice and
tho testimony ware sufficient to con-
vict, then the verdict was just" he
said But II, on the other hand
there were prejudice and a clamor
Tor vengeance, then the trial was no
fair and impartial.
mo one can deny that the public
mind was infiamed at the perpetra-
ton Of the crime, and Justly so, ana
that prejudice ran high. Then. under
these conditions the TRIAL was not
fair and impartial
IF Leo Frank has had a fair trial
and has been found guilty upon the
most reliable testimony and there Is
no reasonable doubt as to his guilt.
he should suffer tho penalty OF the
law.
when Prejudice Runs High"
But II is a dangerous experiment
to convict any man of a crime at a
time when the public mind is unduly
excited and when prejudice Is at it's
height. Far better wait until sober
judgment can prevail and better by
far to let dozen guilty men go I'M
punished than to take the life OF
one innocent man.
When the State hangs a man In
nocent Of a crime II is guilty Of Judi
cial murder. No mans life or liberty
are safe when either can be taken
away merely upon circumstantial
evidence or because public sentiment
demands vengeance Jesus Christ
was crucifed under just such con
ditions"
