Sees Danger 10 Government.

1--WE are living in strange days. There
has never been time within my recol-
lection when there was such a spirit OF
unrest and uneasiness on the part Of the
people generally. The time is surely com
ing-indeed, Il may be near at hand
when we as a people must demonstrate
whether our form OF government, with an
| almost unlimited elective franchise, can
endure We cannot escape the feeling
| that what is done here and now may have
a tremendous influence on the determine
ton % that question.
We consider il OF the utmost impor-
lance that what IS done here and now
should not only be well and rightly done,
but il should be Done i'm such manner
as TO convince the people Of the state
that it has been so done.
Mr.. Human read his address somewhat
rapidly. but In a clear voice. There was
no noise in the courtroom while he was
speaking, but no. all OF the Senators VINO

more strolled into the lobby and lounged
on the couches smoking and discussing
the case.

90 at Noon; Not
Bad for Atlanta,
FOreCaSter Says

Atlanta sweltered again Friday,
wnen exactly 80 degrees was the mark
of the mercury in the official weather
bureau thermometer at noon. Low
humidity, only 30 per cent, served to
make the heat considerably less op-
pressive.
This is not bad weather at all for
Atlanta" said Forecaster c. F. Won.
Hermann. Atlanta is in the South
and this is the month Of June"
Having viewed all the maps provid-
I'd by the Federal Weather Depart
ment, Mr.. VonHerrmann said the
temperature probably would remain
stationary several days, beginning
with 70. or thereabouts, every morn
Ing and ascending to 80 or % between

| ANFORDAND
FIELDER ARE
HELD FOR
LIBEL

Three indictments charging crlmi-
nal libel were returned Friday by the
Grand Jury against Colonel Thomas
B. Fielder. the Atlanta attorney. and
Newport Lanford, Chief of Detectives,
who accused each other of most
everything in the category after the
famous photograph episode There are
two bills against Fielder and one
against Lanford.
The two men will be placed under
bond and will be tried in the Fulton
County courts under the misdemeanor
act for unlawfully and maliciously ac-
3 cusing each other, according TO the
true bills.
The penalty for conviction Of a mis-
demeanor is six months in the county
Jail, twelve months in the peniten-
tiary, a fine not exceeding $1,000;
either or all three.
Colonel Fielder appeared at the So
licitor's Office about O'Clock and fur
nished the $500 bond required. Chief
Lanford had not been located at that
The accusation against both men
is based on examinations issued
against each other and published in
the Sunday newspapers of May rs
and June 8.
In those statements Colonel Fielder
attacked Lanford bitterly, hurting a
line Of invectives that the greatest
of the Roman orators might have
envied. He attacked Lanfords pri-
waite and public character, accusing
him of "hideous crimes"
Lanford in Full Denial.
Chief Lanford replied in kind, de-
nouncing Colonel Fielder as con
temptible liar, scoundrel and cow
ard" He denied absolutely any
wrong doing.
To establish the fact that the
statements published haG actually
been made by Fielder and Lanford, the
Grand Jury summoned Sidney Or
mond, city editor of The Constitu-
ton, and NJ. D. Clofine, city editor
of Hearst's Sunday American. Both
men testified that there could be no
question that Fielder and Lanford is
sued the statements in question.
The new turn in the photograph
fight was entirely unexpected and
promises stirring developments. If
the charges are upheld and the two
men formally accused, the real fight
will come at the trial, when it will be
up to both Lanford and Fielder to
prove the charges they made against
each other.
Real Revelations Promised.
That will bare the real inside of
the dictograph trap and other things
that have been rumored in the last
few weeks, and some real explosions
are anticipated.
Subpenas also have been issued out
of the Solicitor Generals office for
other witnesses who engaged in the
controversy at a time when charges
and countercharges were flying thick
aEld fast. It is the announced inten-
ton of the Grand Jury to probe care
fully and thoroughly into Colonel Fell
der's charges of alleged crookedness
IN the detective department.
1t is rumored in the Hobbies of the
courthouse that the investigation of
the Fielder charge will in time de-
veIop into another and more search
ing inquiry into the vice situation
in Atlanta. Colonel Folders charges
have been based on the alleged pro-
lection of resorts by Chief Lanford
and his detectives, which have been
as vigorously denied.
