Messrs. DAWSON, Rainey and Patterson
have simply ignored Johnstons charges, and
Warden Smith is to 90 on managing the
convicts, just as he pleases
1t is fearful responsibility on our hui
name Governor, when the Prison Commits
sloners virtually say, as they have done,
that, unless Warden Smith and his inanaedi-
ate satellites CONFESS TO JOINT MIS-
TREATMENT OF Conflicts, no case
against them can be made out
That is practically the logic of the Com
missions stand, against ex-convict testimony.
If Governor Gordon believed a negro who
had stolen hog, why shouldn't Governor
Harris believe white man who stole an
automobile tire?
What did the stealing of the hog have to
do with the cruelty which resulted in Bill
Sturgis' death?
What has the theft of an automobile tire
got to do with the crueltes, and discrimna-
tions said to exist at the State Farm?
AS the Telegraph we'll said, the Commits
sion, in giving the Warden weeks notice
of their intended visit, gave Smith ample
time to fix things to suit him.
Jim Smith was generally fixed for the
visit of the committee of the Grand Jury,
though on one occasion he assaulted them,
and drove them off from his camp.
1t the Commission refuses to listen to the
Victins of ill-usage, who is to furnish the
evidence?
The guards will not do it, the underlings
of the Warden will not do it, and the pris-
oners who enjoy special favors will not do it.
BY arbitrarily outlawing the evidence Of
ex-convicts, and Of convicts, the Prison Com
mission issues d1o illegal license to tie War
den!
It says to him, in effect
No lo<
at the State Farm, you are safe in it, so
long as you, and your deputies, and your
pet prisoners, have no falling out
This is certainly q scandalous attitude for
the Prison Commission to assume.
The State Of Georgia had just as well
return to the Lease system, as to wink at the
conditions, equally bad, and which do not
even have the redeeming feature of produc-
ing revenue for the State.
Let us examine one or two cases at this
ideal place where Money does not count, and
contrast them with one case under the old
system
Lep. Myers, of Macon, was keeping a Gen
tile woman, and word came to the Jew, one
evening. tlWt another man was spending
money on this woman
Lep. Myers armed himself with a pistol,
went to the woman's room, and demanded
the name Of the man.
She refused to give it, and he deliberately
shot her to death, IN her oaUn room.
1t was such an atrociOus murder, that all
Macon expected the assassin to be hanged
But by some sort Of mole-work-and secret
society influence, no doubt-the jury brought
in verdict of manslaughter
The presiding judge showed what he
thought of the matter by giving the muir
derer the full sentence allowed by law,
twenty years in the penitentiary.
How much of this sentence did Myers
serve?
Not an hour!
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-08-05
ssTHIS is ONE PLACE WHERE
MONEY DOES NOT COUNT
That HalcyOn Place is the GeOr-
ola State Farm.

had to resign his fat job in San Domingo,
because he was caught stealing from the
niggers.
There is the City of Nashville, thrown
into the hands of receiver, because the
Mayor and Council were said to be purloin-
ing ducats out of the municipal treasury
There is the City of Atlanta, which fur
nishes periodical smells, Of the most crema-
tory sort; and if it isn't the Soldiers Home,
it is something equally bad:
So we heaye sigh of relief when War
den j. E. Smith announces that the State
Farm is one place where Money does not
count.
No convict gets better treatment than any
other All prison birds look alike to War
den Smith
Each man gets exactly the same things to
eat, and as much of it as he wants.
Each man is made to wear the same sort
of stripes, and to bunk in the same sort of
quarters.
Kissing does not 60 by favor at the State
Farm A firm, but bengnant impartialitv
reigns under Warden Smith.
A convict can't bootlick his way into the
managers good graces, and no amount Of
Money, or political pull can secure for any
convict special privileges Of any kind.
How ideal this is!
What heavenly character Warden Smith
must be!
If he were a younger man, we would be
apprehensive of losing him prematurely, for
the angels must be somewhat impatient for
his cOmpanlonship.
This is one place where Money does not
count"
So says J. E. Smith, the Warden
A white man named Johnston, who had
served a year at the State Farm (for steal
ing an automobile tire in a drunken frolic),
was recently set free, and he told the Macon
Telegraph a story of outrage and favoritism,
as he had seen it under Warden Smith.
He described those conditions QUhich
nearly alacay8 prevail where men are given
too much power over other men.
Johnstons story sounds like an echo of
the old Lease system, under which such I'M
scrupulous and unsuitable Money-lovers as
James NJ. Smith, of Oglethorpe County, had
men whipped numerically, worked barbar
ously, and lodged like cattle.
DR.. Willis Westmoreland made to Gov
ernor H.. d. Mcdaniel a report against
Lessee jim Smith, that was even worse than
Johnston's charges against Warden J. E.
Smith.
| furnished the evidence of the whipping
to death by jim Smiths company of
gigantic negro convict from McDufie.
The negro had sworn that white man
had giyen, instead of sold him drink of
liquor, and the falsehood-just plain lie
about mouthful of fre-water-cost him his
life
His name was Bill Sturgis, and he was
beaten to death in Washington County; and
Governor John B. Gordon fined jim Smiths
Company $780, for that and other crimes
OF the same sort.
The facts were given me by negro eu-
conrict, George Paschdl, who had gone up
for hog stealing.
