Il regret to see by the newspapers
that the grand jury in Charleston fail

cases, Notwithstanding the statement
of the foreman that the action was
regardless of the law and the evil

prejudice against the dispensary law.

RAILROAD FIGURES TOO LOW.
State Treasurer Refuses Tenders On
:s-Min License on Gross Earnings.

Columbia, June 19.-The State
treasurer has refused tenders made
by attorneys Of the Seaboard, South
ern, Charleston and Western Caro-
lima and the Blue Ridge railroads OF
what the railroads say is the three
mill license on. gross earnings for the
year. The tender in each case was
made in currency and refused by
State Treasurer S. T. Carter, on the
ground that the three-mill tax was on
all gross earnings originating in
South Carolina as reported to him
by the State tax commission. The
railroads contend that the law means
only the gross earnings in intrastate
business.
Mr.. B. L. Abney, attorney for the
Southern and Blue Ridge, rendered
the State treasurer s9,2s9.14 for the
Southern and $29o92 for the Blue
Ridge as their three-mill tax on gross
earnings. This was refused because
the treasurer calculated that the
Southern's tax was s27, 7,242.23 and
the Blue Ridge s553.07. Mr.. ]. Ber-
ry Lyles, attorney for the Seaboard
and Charleston and Western Caro-
lima, rendered the treasurer S1,S57.-
O6 for the Seaboard and s1,412.60 for
the Charleston and Western Carolina
as the three-mill tax on their gross
earnings. This was refused because
the treasurer calculated that the tax
of the Seaboard was 's6,790.S4 and
the Charleston and Western Carolina
s5.239.
Tax Commissions Figures.
According to the calculation OF the
State tax commission the total gross
earnings of all railroads in South
Carolina for the past year was s22,-
5SS,91S. and the three-mill tax, ac-
cording to the State treasurer,
amounted to s67,766:75. The pre-
vious year the returns of the gross
earnings of the railroads, according
to the books of the State treasurer,
totalled S9.4S1. .93S.64 and the three
mill tax amounted to s2S,445.81.
Mr.. Abney told the State treasurer
he did not yet know what process Of
law the railroads would take in con-
testing the ruling of the tax commits
sion.

AVIiTORS IN FIGHT.
Frenchman Shoots German Oppo.
nent.-Machine Drops.

Paris. June 19.-The following Of
fetal account of an engagement be-
tween a French and German aero
plane was given out in Paris today:
An enemy aeroplane having been
observed over our lines at Aspach.
near Thann, in upper Alsace, one of
our aviator sergeants took wing and
mounted in 80 minutes to height Of
10000 feet. At this altitude he en-
gagged his enemy with machine gun.
THE German replied with his ma
chine gun, and one of his bullets
struck the motor of the French ma
chine. The sergeant again ascended
to a position above his adversary and
fired three bands of cartridges. Dur
ing the third round the German avia-
tor was seen by the Frenchman sud-
denly to throw his arms into the air.
His machine then began to fall and
it came down like a stone inside OF
our line.
The French aviator came down
under control. Once on the ground
he examined his machine. He found
that bullets fred by his antagonist
had perforated his cylinder. pene-
trated the steel shield at the back
of the motor and riddled his sails.
The Frenchman himself was slightly
wounded in the neck.

Demonstration in Atlanta.


Atlanta, Ca, June 21.-Governor
slaton tonight called upon the State
militia to protect his country home,
near this city, after several hundred
men and boys had attempted to en-
ter the estate through the front
gates, which had been barricaded by
barbed-wire entanglements, and had
threatened to overpower the twenty
county policemen, armed with riot
guns, who we're on guard. The dem
onstration was a protest against the
governors decision today in COM
muting the sentence of Leo M. Frank
to life Imprisonment.
Upon arrival of sixty militiamen
from Atlanta, who had been held ur1-
der arms for emergencies, the gover-
nor proclaimed martial law in a dis
trict extending half a mile in the
front and rear Of his residence and
about a quarter of mile on either
side.
When the militiamen lined up with
fixed bayonets to disperse the crowd
stones, bricks and bottles were
thrown at them, A brick struck
Lieut.. Arnold Parker in the stomach
and rendered him unconscious for
sbort time. A bottle, thrown at Pri-
vate w. w. Foope, struck his gun
and cut his hand. The commanding
officer, Major Sheron, was struck by
a stone, as were several Of the men.
Proclaims Martial Law. /
The governor proclaimed martial
law at II o'clock and by midnight
the crowd had practically been dis
persed. There was no firing.
A telephone message from Mil
ledeeville, where the State prison IS
located, said that trouble was feared
there tonight and asked that the gov
ernor order out the Milledgevilie
company of militia. The governor
told his informant that such re-
quest would have to come from the
sheriff of Baldwin county.
At midnight, however, the sheriff
had not requested troops.
The governor was surrounded IN
his home by about a dozen friends,
nearly everyone of whom was armed
with a rifle or pistol. The unexpect-
ed arrival of member Of the family
at a dark corner Of the front porch'
caused the governor himself to hast
lily pick up a large pistol.
In front of the governors mouse
were more than 100 automobiles I'LL
ed with persons evidently there to
see what the crowd would do. The
troops had great difficulty in clearing
the road of these machines and many
of their orders were met with the re-
tort of shoot"
Crowds Tfrong Streets.
Early tonight the principal streets
were crowded with men and boys and
crowds gathered on. many corners. A
large force of patrolmen paced back
and. forth along Marietta street,
which was a centre for the throngs.
There was no indication, however,
of serious trouble.
About $3.50 several hundred men
started march through the streets
and finally halted at Peachtree and
Pine streets. The police then start,
ed to break up the gathering. Come
on. let's go out to Governor Sla-
tons" shouted several members or
the crowd, and a large number or
men marched north, on Peachtree
street, in the direction Of the COVER
nor's country home, which is sew
eral miles from the centre Of the city.
Members of the party declared they
intended to make a call upon the
governor. A number of county po-
licemen were on guard at the gov
ernor's home. ~.

The dominating idea that this

IN which he had been an inmate was
the inadequacy of the treatment he
had received-its failure to make
anything like an efficient effort to
cure his sick Intelligence. He wrote
book on the mind which found

MENTAL HYGIENE

The Need for It,

mind the. same degree OF skillful
treatment that it extended to the dis
ordered body
A conference was called which led
to the formation Of the national com
mittee for mental hygiene, with Of
fees in New York and a most d1sin-
suished membership Philanthropic
people of wealth have provided funds
for carrying on the work, and the
young man who started it all is sec
rotary of the organization.
The first purpose Of these special
lists is to arouse an appreciation OF
the need of treating mind that
has twisted out Of joint with the
same skill that is given an arm that
has suffered the same misfortune.
They want the insane OF the nation
brought back to sanity to just the
extent that this is possible. But
what is more important, they want
to point the way to a conservation
Of mental health which viii prevent
insanity, just as certain methods OF
living win prevent tuberculosis. Very
practical work toward this ends be

Individual suffering from disor-
dered mind to get treatment, as
though he were suffering from pneu-
MONA or broken leg.
The primary difficulty in estab-
fishing this condition of affairs lies
in the fact that there are few teach
.ers of physicians who know anything
OF the diagnosis or treatment OF men
tai complaints. In some Of the Eu-.
|ough courses in this psychopathic
work Medical students are given
much opportunity for observation in
the wards where the mind cures are
Peculiarly, men from
the Law schools are also required to
spend some time in these wards that
they may have the capacity OF 5udg-
ing insanity. Even policemen are
sent there to observe the symptoms
may judge when. an offender should
go to Jail and when to the hospital.
In recent years many of the medi-
cal colleges in America have added
a course in mental MEDICINE to their
|curriculums, but it usually consists
of only a few lectures, and is re-
garded as being rather aside from
the need Of the average practitioner.
The new idea is, however. that the
up of the Individual which gives it
an importance over all else 1t has
the capacity to make the physical
body Ill when it would otherwise be
well. and, practically all authorities
now admit, it may cure many ply
