ANOTHER ILLUSION GONE.

For years our sympathy has been with those
who underwent the tortures of forcible feeding
in Holloway jail. The thought Of some soft
voiced dynamiter or should we call her dyna.
mitrcss, or gentle-natured vitriol thrower having
the roast beef of Merrie England gorged down
her throat as if she were a Strasburg goose. has
caused untold pain, and we have nightly de-
sired to rush to the aid Of the distressed martyrs
Their agonies of nourishment have been the
cause Of much of our nerve deterioration and We
have shuddered in deepest sympathy
Now comes the bishop of London with a state
ment which brings the fragment of beautiful
illusion crashing about cars. In letter he
declares that he not only visited but talked with
the forcibly fed suffragettes in Holloway prison
and found them hearty and comfortable with no
black fnger-marks about their Threats and with
no evidence of the agony which thought had
wracked their frames.
II any save the bishop of London has shattered
the illusion might have had our doubts, but
coming from such a source we will have TO be-
lieve him in preference to either the dynamitress
however soft may be her voice, or the vitriol
tHTOWef, no matter IT ItF character is THAT Oh d
Madonna. We have seen the bishop in Rich.
mond and he acted like an honest man.
The screams and groans which rent the prison
walls shortly after the echoes Of the dinner bell
had died, were but the outward and visible sign
of an inward and militant spirit and the real
operation undergone in forcibe feeding, when
fully explained, persuade one who eats frequent
ly IN quick lunch establishments that it would
not be utterly bad to be suffragette and have to
undergo the forcible injection OF real food.

HARD WORK DONE.

Even though the pleas for appropriations were
not entirely needed and there are many worthy
measures which failed of passage. because there
was not enough money to 60 round, the APP
preparations committees Of the house and senate
deserve the thanks of every legislator for their
work on the appropriations measures, Both
measures are bulky and each is the result of
Euntirng labor and sagacty.
The finance committees of the house and
senate bear burden, burden which is not felt
by members of other committees The members of
these committees have much to do with every
measure which requires an appropriation. Their
paths are lined with those disgruntled ones who
failed to get what they wanted or as much as
they wanted. Theirs is the unpleasant duty of
refusing money.
The committees at this session have the ap-
preparation Of over thirteen millions of dollars
and they have prepared measures which do credit
to the members, 1t is tremendous work and
one which relieves the Legislators of untold
trouble.

one which appeals to AS matter of fact
every professional man does great deal of what
might be called charity work i. e. that work for

The best argument for the adjustment of
license fees for physicians is on the grounds
that the physician stands for the betterment of
physical conditions and that the physicians as a
whole are responsible for the general health.
The physicians work for the public is largely

liberal policy on the part of the legislature

its influence and usefulness throughout the
State, while the niegardly attitude tho part
of our lawmakers would really cripple this
great school in its important and growing
work, That the opportunity for the V. F. /. is
great there can be no possible doubt and it is
the ambition of its management to so develop
the institution that its helpful influence may
extend to all tho people in the \state who are
trying to put agriculture upon a higher and
more scientific plane.
The machine shops, which were destroyed
sometime ago must he rebuilt, and the equip

an expenditure of nearly $9Sooo.0o.

GEORGIA MAN IN
WEST HELD ON
COIN CHARGE
Upton, an Alleged Old Offender
Here, Reads Bible as Officers
Raid House Outfit.

Dispatches Tuesday from Greeley,
Colo, told OF the arrest there by Sc
cret Service officers Of w, l.. Upton,
of Gilmer County, Georgia, In whose
home was found a complete counter
feiting outfit.
Upton, who had acquired quite a
reputation IN Greeley as a church at
tendant and for bis apparent piety,
was reading Bible when the Gov
eminent officers came down upon him
and demanded entrance to his house.
The man had similar experience in
this State. His home in Gilmer Coun-
~ was raided by the Secret Service
men in 1903. Molds and counterfeit
ing coins were found about his place.
He was indicted, but left the State
before a true bill was returned by the
Federal Grand Jury.
He went to Greeley. where he was
discovered in 1908. The authorities
returned him to Atlanta, and he was
tried in June OF that year His al
legged offense being five years in the
past, the Government had difficult
undertaking in his prosecution. The
jury acquitted him, and he went
back TO Greeley
Upton had sworn that he would
live an upright life. The Secret
Service officers kept a close watch
over him, and it appeared for a time
as though he meant to carry out his
promise. He became prominent fig
ure in religious circles and was a
leader in church activities. But the
authorities say that he was using the
cloak OF religion TO hide his real oc-
cupation. They charge that he re-
turned from church meetings to work
through the night making spurious
coins, and that the townspeople had
no suspicion of his double life.
Upton was taken to Denver after
his arrest, and the plaster molds and
other paraphernalia found in his home
were taken along as evidence to be
used in his forthcoming trial. Off
cials in the Atlanta branch of the Sc
cret Service were greatly interested
in the dispatches from the West,
since they had Upton under surveil-
lance for months preceding his arrest
In Gilmer County in 1908.
