SUPREME COURT
UPHOLDS NEW
VENUE LAW
Change Must Be Ordered Where
Mob Violence Is Likely, ST.
preme Tribunal Rules.

The Supreme Court Wednesday
settled an important point in the new
change Of venue law. provided IN
capital cases where mob violence is
feared. when. in the case Of Kennedy
against the State, It was held that II
is mandatory upon judge Of the Su-
perior Court to order change Of
venue when it is apparent upon
proper affidavits. that mob violence
is likely
This decision is unanimous as to
the law but two justices, Evans and
Beck dissent as to the direction Of
the rehearing.
Kennedy killed his wife in Emanuel
County, and for fear Of mob violence
he was removed TO Chatham for safe
keeping He petitioned Judge Raw
: lings for a change Of venue, upon the
ground that mob violence was likely
10 be inflicted upon him If he was
brought back TO Emanuel for trial
AEidavits were submitted to prove
the petition. but no showing was
made to the contrary Judge Raw
lings refused the petition.
The Superior Court held that IN
der the law of 1911 the Superior
Court judge has no discretion In mat
tiers of this sort. but must order a
change of venue and a trial else
where. The Court OF Review re-
verses Judge Rawlings and directs
the appeal remanded. with directions
that the change of venue be ordered.
The dissenting judges agree as 10 the
law. but hold that the case should
be sent back for a rehearing that evil
dence against the likelihood Of mob
violence might be heard.
In a lengthy opinion from Justice
Atkinson, representing the majority
of the court, the court frankly recog-
nizes the fact that "lynchings do &C
cur in Georgia" and that trials under
military guard infiame the public
mind. Inferentially, therefore, the
court puts tho stamp OF its approval
upon the new law.

Rear Admiral KimbaIl Cites Huge
Sum as Drain on Nation by
Lack of Merchant Marine.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-"The
United States has just finished pay
ing $12, 1000 O0O.O 900 tribute to European
commercial masters for carrying her
freight on the seas.
I'VE are beginning the payment OF
another S12, 900, 900, 900 to those same
masters, and will round out that sum
unless there is an awakening from
the commercial slumber that needs
not the fact that America trade is
carried entirely in foreign bottoms.
ours, the greatest network of rail-
roads in the world, is but a fat feeder
to these foreign lines"
This is the embarrassing situation
in which the United States finds her
self on the verge of the opening of
the Panama Canal, declares Rear Ad-
miral w. W. Kimball, through the
Navy League of the United States. He
says:
ITO illustrate the penalty we pay
upon occasion by not having ships of
our own, the wheat OF the region
around Seattle during the Boer War
was carried almost exclusively by
British commercial masters.
Seattle Left Helpless.
"The Boer War took away those
ships, and Seattle found itself with
out means of transporting it's crops.
Freight went up, and the people
of Seattle paid a fine of $4,000, 900
for their lack of trade independence.
Were a general European war to
withdraw the ships of Britain, Ger
many, France and Italy, the trade of
the whole nation would not only suf-
fer, as did Seattle, but would be en-
tirely without transportation facili-
ties at any price
When the American business men
awake they wifi give us commerce
of our own based upon an American
merchant marine. They will change
from a lopsided. tribute-bearing COM
munity to a great, symmetrical, indie
pendent nation, a maritime nation
owning and controlling its maritime
affairs
They will teach us-the great su-
perintelligent American people-what
the general run of British, Teutons
and Latins in Europe know already
that no nation with a seaboard can
be real nation without a commerce
without sea power.
Merchant Marine Possible.
The awakened business man or
national business sense will grasp the
patent fact that a real commerce will
financially benefit the farmer in Kan
sas more than the fisherman in
Gloucester.
He will realize that this protec-
ZIONIST country can as readily build
up real commerce as did protec-
ZIONIST Germany. Germany took ad-

said. neither the idea of punishment
nor the idea of reformation should
be lost sight of. Certainly a man
should be punished when he violates
the law, but the idea of reformation
should come first.
I'VE put men in prison in the hope
of making better men out of them,
and in all imprisonments the hope Of
reforming the prisoner should oc-
cupy more attention than the desire
to punish. The man who says a
criminal should be punished rather
than reformed has not studied he
subject"
Mir. Burns scorned the statements
OF famous criminologists that crime
is hereditary.
THAT theory is foolish" he said.
Just because boys father is a
criminal, 1t does not follow that the
boy must be a criminal.
"Heredity has nothing to do with
it; environment causes crime. En-
vironment is a greater cause of crime
than ignorance, for our greatest Grim
inals are educated men,

Mr. Burns refused to discuss the
Frank case on which one of his
agents worked for several weeks last
summer. on the plea that he knew
nothing about ii except what he pick

try. But he gave his views on crime

Those same moneys directed into
other channels may, in the future,
build an American merchant marine

ne returned he reported that he had
been suffering from nervous indi-

very soon. He did say that when he
quit he would be compelled to leave

Der of diamond brooches at the re-

the brooch which he did not wish.
Mir. Mount. however. failed to get
back either the brooch or the cash
which had been promised.

getting the $500 difference in cash at
the Grand Valley bank.
Then Mr.. Cameron went to the A.
