Tear. Reddened Eyes.

The young man obeyed, and stood
with blinking, tear-reddened eyes, with
his hands fumbling nervously at his
hat, for the space of about two min
utes, a forlorn object.
He's just a country boy. who ought
to have stayed in the country, as did, -
said Mr.. Howard. The speaker once
was a member of congress.
"He came to the city, this big city
that is always growing bigger off the
efforts and the blood of men and wom-
en-maybe off their souls-and. like a
country boy, without power of resist
ance, was engulfed. The city was too
big for him"
Boswell sank down in his chair and
covered his face.
Both speakers made him out pitia l.
BILE character And he looked it.
The two men told of the boys efforts
to make a living, and the straits to
which he was put. The plea was an
effort to keep him out of prison.
Judge Thomas did not announce his
decision regarding the sentence on Bos-
we'll, saying that he would consider it at
length and give it out today.

Former Colleagues at Bar
Plead With Judge Thomas
for LenienCy.

A broken young lawyer, scarcely
more than a boy, is being held up to
Atlanta today as the text of a sermon
which breaches contentment and the
evil Of too great ambition, such SER
mon as was delivered yesterday in the
Fulton county superior court when
forcefuI speakers argued the cause OF
H. ]. Boswell, the young lawyer who
had confessed the charges Of criminal
practice
Boswell still is a young man. He
seemed very young yesterday as he sat,
a huddled figure, frankly crying and
wretchcd while men who had been his
fruitless teachers in the right way
pleaded with Judge Thomas for mercy
toward him.
Even while they talked Boswell had
been disbarred. shorn of the right to
practice the profession which he had
studied and of which he had been proud.
He made no resistance to the dis
barment proceedings. He made no re-
sistance to the charges against him,
after he found that resistance was al
most futile Left to himself he prob
ably would have made no resistance to
any sentence except maybe to say that
he had no money to pay a fine.
His lawyers said that for him, and
more Eugene Black and William NJ
Howard spoke very plainly when they
told the Judge of his financial straits
and asked for lehiency in the sentence
They were trying also to get something

Merely Country Boy.

Just a little country boy, come to a
city too big for him, and bringing too
much ambition and too little scruples," :"
they characterized him.
Boswell sat through 1t all with head
bowed, and with his hand to his face.
Several times he wiped his eyes with
his handkerchief, and once cried audi
bly, when Mr. Black spoke OF the family
who shared his disgrace and of moth
er and father who were heart broken.
He sat very still when Mr. Black and
Mr. Howard spoke Of his weak charac-
ter and his lack of force. Mr. Black
laughed at the solicitors charge that
Boswell was the head of conspiracy.
Why" he said. "a man like that
couldn't head anything"
Boswell sat unmoved. His pride
seemed gone Later Mr.. Howard talked
along the same strain.
Everything about him declares false

We are going to carry the Henry
amendments to our primary and
make them an issue in our cam
paign. Henry is to speak at our
State Fair, October 23rd.; invited by
the cotton Growers" to speak on
their day at Dall;s, October 23rd.
He will open our campaign.
We intend to make every Congress-
man toe this mark in our next cam
paign. Can't you arrange and help
carry the move in all the States?
Henry's plans of currency, if made
law, will open door to progress
that will place our country immune
against panics, and in ten years will
witness the grandest line of advance
ment ever known in civilization
will make our progress so just to ell
classes, so even and symmetrical
that it will give us an era of domes-
tic tranquility never enjoyed by any
country on earth.
Something must be done. The Re-
publican party was committed to the
Aldrich plan; the Democratic party
now committed (without any plat
form or discussion before the people
except to fight the Aldrich plan) to
the full principle of an asset cur
rency. With both parties thus COM
mitted the money power" will soon
amend the bill to conform to the
Aldrich measure, which was written
and introduced by them.
When that is done, the doom of
the common man is sealed and no
power will ever be able to remove
their tyranny without revolution.
1t is nonsense to talk of regulating
the trusts when you have the
money Trust" the most unscrupu-
lous of all the trusts, in full control
of our money. Their fixed incomes
and debts against the people now,
absorbs more every year than our
productive industry produces, and
when they can coin all their COM
mercial paper into currency at the
Government mint, their power to
sack and plumber the country will
be complete.
No Government board will ever be
able to prevent final control of all
industry and progress.
This power, directed through
great corporations, will be far more
heartless and cruel than when di-
rected by crowns and legalized
aristOcPacy

OUR DEGRADATION.

This commercial dissipation is
swapping the moral character Of
the community. Men and women,
boys and girls, and even dogs, are
demoralized. The "holidays'' are
convenient occasions for commercial
excess. And ''holidays" (including
those blessed" by the pope) will
multiply the demands Of religion"
'benevolence," and last, but not
least, of business" Of course, this
religion and benevolence is business
of the greediest sort. Put the mon
and his near relative, the Pope, in
team, as they are in Pennsylvania,
and many other sections, and you
have team" that is hard to beat.
The Yankee can give the Pope some
pointers and the Pope can give
the Yankee some pointers, and they
both do it. They are not bashful nor
backward. Why, they have brass
enuff to confound a foundry.
BIT this is a serious matter. 1t
goes to show that the race is degen-
Grating morally, mentally and physi-
cally. MAN that is born Of wo-
man" is in a sorry plight. The wo-
men are rushing, plunging, scream
ing for rights which the Creator
never gave them nor intended they
should have. But the female, mind
is credited with the power of intui-
ton. Does it see that man is so
degenerate that he cannot govern
himself, or purge the government of
corruption? Well, that is nearly
right. But does not the female mind
also see that she is the mother of
the race? Let this old bachelor edi-
tor tell her that there is the place to
begin. Gle would rather be a Bene-
dict, and help in the reform.)
where is my wandering boy, to-
night?" is the title of a pathetic
song. But Where is my little girl,
tonight" During the day she stews
and sweats in the factory, store or
office, and at night she fits about
like a swallow or bat. Her nerves
are unstrung and she seeks the tonic
of diversion or dissipation. Vain
hope; but certain end!
Where is my mother, tonight?"
At the club, or the theatre, or the
moving picture show, or worse. But
the first tragedy is in dress. The
greatest tyrant of the Race is Fash
ion, or Style. The most leering de-
mon Of destruction to good morals is
outward adolnment. The heart may
be corrupt and the mind vacant, but
the body, which is food for worms,
yet the temple of the Spirit, must
be tastefully, tactfully and forever
mirrored in fashion.
Does man of good common sense
want such woman for a wife, or
helpmate, or as the mother of his
children? With her body tortured
and distorted by the iron rule of
style; her maternal instincts and
functions are diseased or degraded,
and she does not know what a real
man is. And her child is puny, sick
ly and liable to ''catch" every germ
that floats in the air, or in the milk.
What sort of man or woman is this
poor plant going to furnish society?
Men are careful about their farm
stock, for there is profit in it. Why
do not men and women care more
for their offspring, which are the
hope of the State and their institu-
lions? This is the solicituGe of pa
triotism and the care of human
souls.-Ezra Wheeler, in The Ameri-
can Whip.

MY father is soon to take the
management of a hotel in Yellowstone
National park. We have been in
formed that no dogs are allowed in
the park confines. Mr.. President, you
don't know how sorry 1 am to hear
this. l am IS years old and our old
dog Fanny is the game age. We
have never been separated and l can
not bear the thought of leaving her
behind. She is very old for a dog,
you know, and would not be able to
harm any of the park animals. 1t
would be terrible to kill her. cont you

her carefully, can't YOU persuade the
