A citizens committee of the vicinity

their city by the Literary Digest and
other American newspapers and pub

hanging near that place A copy of

Editor of the Literary Digest,
New Yorks City, n. Y.
Dear Sir
At a mass meeting of the citizens,
men and women. of Starkville, Missis-
sippi held last night at the county
court house, strong protest was made
on behalf of the good people of this
community against the recent SANDER
Gus reports in the daily press of the
public execution in this county of Dit
Scale and Petef Bolen, on the 9Th in
stant, many of which are grouped in
your current issue under the title,
"Capitalizing Capital Punishment in
Mississippi" and a committee was ap
pointed, composed of five representa-
tive citizens, to communicate this pro-
test to your periodical as an open let
ter, to be given out to the press.
These two negroes were guilty of
cruel and atrocious murder. They de-
coyed a hard working young boy OF
their own race to a secluded spot
where they murdered him and robbed
his dead body of $25, which had just
been paid to him for his labor. They
returned twice during the following
night to the scene of the homicide, in
an effort to conceal the body of their
victim. Both of them, before their eX-

These remains OF the once powerful
forts which protected Warsaw show
the great destructive work of the AZ
centimeter German siege guns, which
smashed to bits the forts of Namur in
Belgium early in the war The Rus
slams were unable to stand against
the mighty power Of these guns, and
these photographs, the first to arrive
in the United States of the fall of
Warsaw, show that the Germans were
able to drive out the Russians there
because of their superior artillery.
The photographs are the first hint of
the real cause Of slie Russian defeat
at Warsaw. The great guns which de-
molished the Belgian forts were used
to smash the Russian defenses.
