/ tered into hellish conspiracy to put

/ society on the most atrocious and
/ alabOIical charges ever Matched in the

After the laughter had subsidized,
Thurman continued:
with me out of the way, rotting in
prison, they were going to put my
children in an orphan asylum and
| then sell my property, taking the pro-
cceds and going West, where my wife
planned to marry a rich ranch owner

was he redheaded?" asked Judge
PenGleton.
No she replied; "he was bald
headed"
Hugh Galloway told the jury that

cook the things he wanted to eat,
with the result that his health was
shattered.

ALEXANDER HITS
U.S.COVERNMENT

"The Emperor of Germany and the
over their realms that the American
Congress has over the people of the
United States" said United States
District Attorney Hooper Alexander
in an address at the exercises in hon
or of the birthday of General Robert
Z. Lee at the Atlanta Law School
Monday afternoon.
Compared with the President of
the United States, the King OF Eng
land is an obscure puppet. There Is
no nation on the g'pbe where the CEN
trail government has acquired such
power and dominion over its sub
jects as our Federal Government now
possesses"
Mr.. Alexander's address was based
on the causes of the secession of the
Southern States and the principle for
which the war between the States
was fought He declared that the Is
sue of states rights" the original
cause of the war, was lost sight of in
the agitation over slavery, which
made the North forget the legality of
the States rights contentious of the
South
Hamilton Douglas. dean Of the At
lanta Law School, also spoke, eulogiz-
ing General Lee as a brave soldier
and Christion gentleman.
He was matchless in strategy,
temperate in victory, and divine in
defeat" said Mr. Douglas, He stands
unique in history as combining mag
nificent military ability with utmost
courtesy and tenderness; as blending
military genius with incorruptible in
tegrity."

oovernor Sends Message No. IS.

Message No. 13 Of the extraordinary
session was received In the senate
recently from the governor. This
was in the main an argument against
the proposed bond issue, based on
technicalities Of the constitution.
The first argument was that the
author of the bond issue project. Sem
ator Alan Johnstone Of Newberry, was
not legally a member of the senate,
in that he was a trustee and chairman
of the board Of trustees Of Clemson.
Another was that oil bills providing
revenue should originate in the house.
The third section questioned the
legality Of the senate's action In con.
tinuing as members Of the sinking
fund commission the chairman OF the
ways and means committee OF the
house and the chairman Of the finance
committee in the senate until their
successors had been chosen.
In conclusion the chief executive
raised the question that the state
could not Issue scrip. certificate OF
other evidence of state Indebtedness
except for the redemption Of stock
bonds or other evidences Of indebted
ness previously issned."

rhr. Matter Of Love Letters.

Any man may be pardoned for ask
ing to be saved from his love letters.
And feminine love letters, II shade
less incongruous. are equally distress
ing when exposed to the public gaze'
Several patches are just now being
read out In court to eager judges ana
juries, and we think the protest
against this placing Of intimate emo
tions In the pillory will be universal.
The Browning letters established Q
respectable precedent for this sort OF
publicity, and recently Mrs. Parnell
has chosen to follow this example
Some defense can be made for this
barring Of a great mind and heart, al
ready. in large degree, the possession
Of the public. Yet a feeling OF dis
taste is aroused in many readers even
in such cases.
When we come to the reading II
court Of love letters written by unob
trusive private citizens, the feeling o.
distaste comes amazingly close to hor
ror. Such a procedure may seem nee
essary In the course Of litigation
But every onlooker. nearby and afar
feels a sense of outrage, and the sell
respect Of the world suffers by jus
so much.
