eng some men, and trying to hire others,
to sooear to lies, in order that an entroordi-
nary motion for a aew trial for Frank
might aoin IN the courts.
Out in Iowa, where he addressed the
bankers, Burns said, a few weeks ago:
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-07-15

Out in Iowa, where he addressed the
bankers, Burns said, a few weeks ago:
Frank is as innocent as I am, but the Atlanta
police are determined to fix the crime upon
some one, after the many murderers that have
gone unpublished, that they are satisfied to con-
denim an innocent man. They selected Frank
their victim, because he was the last person
known to have seen the girl alive, and they knew
he jew and that on this account racial
prejudice would assist them
What does the official record show, on this
point?
1t shows, that the Atlanta police and de-
tectives made every possible effort to trace
the crime array from Leo Frank: IN this,
they were aided by Frank himself.
Because of the dark hints Of Frank
against the negro night Waterman, the At
lanta police and detectives arrested him,
and kept him manaczed in Jail.
Frank saw him, in that condition; and
went through the pretense of trying to get
the innocent negro, Newt Lee, to confess.
But Newt says that Frank hung his head
all the time, and used the expression,
'Newt, if you stick to your present story,
we will both go to hell"
On his statement to the jury, Frank did
not deny this.)
The Atlanta police and detectives failed
to make progress against Newt Lee, al
though Frank suggested they search his
in the Negroes clothes barrel-placed there
by somebody who wanted to save Frank, By
finding "a niger IN the ac0odpie''
(They are still trying that game.)
After the failure with Newt Lee, came
the effort to fix the crime on j. M. CAN'T.
Why CAN'T? Because Frank had limited,
and insinuated to the Atlanta police and
detectives, that J. NJ CAN'T knew Mary
Phagan WE'LL and was perhaps too init
mate with her!
Because of Franks hints and i,asiuua-
tion8, the Atlanta police and detectives ar
rested j. NJ. CAN'T
Here, then, we have the record showing
that nobody was after the Jew, but that the
Jeoc was after two perfectly innocent men.
So far from its being true that the At
lanta police and detectives selected"
Frank, because 'they knew he was jew"
they exhausted every effort to get clues
leading away from him; and they we're
eagerly willing to avail themselves of all
the help that Frank could give them in do
ing so.
The official record 8hoao8 It,!
It was not until after the complete break
down of the efforts to take the crime to any
other persons, that the police and detec-
tiyes were forced to believe that Frank and
Conley were the guilty parties.
And when Franks own detective, Harry
Scott, had to give up hope Of clearing
Frank; and the accusing hand was laid
upon the Jew, 1t Immediately tra18pired
that the Jeoo had ozready employed the best
lar firm IN atlanta!
In other words, the JeD had virtuazzy
accused himself before the Genti2es accused
him.
When did a thing like that ever happen
before?
And the very time that Frank was accus-

THE .JEFFERsoNIAN

Let US see if that explanation is beneficial
to Frank.
Who were his oficious friends, that had
the ducats to retain such high priced ar
ticle as Rosser's firm?
They were Jews-the Montags, Seligs, &c.
Then, the Jews employed lawyers for
Frank, before Frank was accused, by the
Atlanta police and detectives.
In other words, the rich Jeaee suspected
that Frank a0ould need the best legal talent,
before the GentileS suspected 1t!
This shows aoAat they thought, as to qOho
assaulted and murdered the little girl.
Ii you believed that your friend was in
nocent and that there was mot a scintilla
of evidence against him." would you take
it upon yourself to employ lawyers for
him!
No other man in Atlanta was blessed
with that particular variety of friends"
It was breed peculiar to Leo Frank.
No friend of J. M. CAN'T rushed secretly
to a lawyers office, before CAN'T was ae-
cused Newt Lee had no such extraordinary
friends.
So far as I know, Leo Frank is the only
man in Georgia whose friends were ever
So certain of his guilt, that they secretly
hired the best lawyers before anybody had
accused him of the crime.
Therefore, the literal fact is, as our
official court records prove, THAT THE
RICH JEWS or ATLANTA WERE
THE FIRST TO SUSPECT LEO
FRANK OF THE CRIME.
And there is one other terrible detail
which Frank never mentions, which Burns
never mentions, which Hearst never men
tions and which Slaton dared not mention;
and it is this:
j 3 :fo3o Oh
horrence of her guilty husband eca8 so uaa-
conquero6ze, that she resisted all efforts to
persuade her to go to see hino at the Jail.
Thus we have the appalling truth of the
case: the Jews, on the inside, knew of
Franks guilt and acted upon that knowl-
edge-the Sehgs, and Montags, by secretly
employing lawyers; and the wife, by refus-
ing to associate with him.
70 the end Of time, they qoiU never get
aaooy from those taoo facts.
John M. Slaton, the gubernatoria1 part
ner of the law firm employed by the rich
Jews who knew Frank to be guilty, in
tended all the time-as last resort-to save
the client of his law firm to stultify his
own record in the Milburn and Cantrell
cases. and to give Frank what the Supreme
Court Justices unanimously refused, towit,
a re-hearing.
The elaborate arguments Of the attor-
neys, and the pretended weighing of the
voluminous evidence, was mere stage play
and sham Szatom never intended that HIS
CLIENT should hang.
Do the out-of=Georgia papers catch the
point?
1t IS time they did!
Instead of hailing Slaton as a hero, they
should see him as he is: they should be
willing to see the prosaic fact, that the rich
JeacS hired a lar firm qohich enjoyed the
immense advantage Of hooing one of ITS

ToDAx's POEM
PAIN.

Thou harbinger of broken law,
 True evidence of moral guilt; Yet I, forsooth, foreknew, foresaw,
 This enemy of human lit; Why should I inwardly resent My just and righteous punishment?
 The message went with lightning
 speed,
 My highest vantage of conserve,
 And yet my spirit gave no heed; 'Tis strange that should be unwise To blessings sent me in disguise. This written in the clouds that weep,
 And in the soil that drinks the rain, Just as you SOW so shall you reap,
 And what you give comes back again.
 Give hatred and hatred will return; Give love, it's flame will always burn. All law is made for huIaan good; Ignore it, and you suffer loss; Your. zeal, because misunderstood.
 Brings ennity, sometimes a cross; Peace. sweet and lasting, follows strife Through death comes more abundant
 life. seThe thing that I expected said r. Afflicted Job, "has happened me; Why should you listen for the tread
 Of sorrows you may never see; Expect the best. from near and far. And follow Faiths triumphant star. -J. NJ. Cayaness in Kansas City Jour nal

It would seem to me that few of our
 dear girls give this subject much thought or they would be, oh, so care ful of that one fault some possess at times. Young girls cannot afford to choose the very companions whom they find are uncongeniaI to them, who ruffle dispositions, are satirical and compel them, as it were, to be on ready to resort to tears, scarcely knowing the reason why, when think ing it over afterward.
 What sweetheart could feel secure in the promise of future happiness, no matter how devoted her lover might appear to be, if time and time again he found an opportunity of trying her disposition on some trif1ing pretext? A young woman who has had faith in a lover she believed to be ideal and found out some disag greeable tenden- cies on his part should ponder well ere she decides to break the tie of betrotha1, closing her eyes and ears to his past procIivity and nisdemean ors.
 It is all very well for some one to care1ess1y remark: 'tOh, I wouldn't mind a bit those random words you are pouting overl Why, it is just his way. You should try to understand He has been used to talking as it suits him He has sown his wild oats, and young women are not inclined to turn LAe1r DECKS upon nm.
 A lover of this kind is apt to take much of his time in reaping the har- vest sown. If he sees a sweetheart pouttng when he keeps her waiting in
 her parlor over an hour for his com ing, or if he contributes little, to her happiness by not inviting her to amusements which she has set her heart upon going to. there is a lapse of his visits which she cannot account for to her friends. It can make mat ters no better to make up with one so indifferent She has to find out for herself that they are generally light of love. hckle and apt to fancy every new, pretty face which fits across their path. They are not the strong oaks which young women fondly hope they are.
 est of reeds to lean on when there is need of the love, comfort and com panfonship Of a he1pmate- When a sweetheart learns by the parting of their ways that they were not intend ed to walk life's pathway together, she should take heart in the belief that a better prospect is In store for her. Poutings should be changed to smiles, and the result will be- that she will be tenfold more attractive than before. Glad light in her eyes will beautify her expressions and an- other worthier suitor will bring well come to her life and happiness to her chilled heart. They will not parade their direction before the wor1's scru- tinizing eyes as formerly. They have congenia1ity, confort-seeking, and each other. There is joy in tIrehs faces. Pouting sweethearts are thus of the past. There is nothing like treu love to influence heart and face.

Dear Miss Libbey::-

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 Reading of your advice would ap- preciate same I am a young lady of 23, keep steady company with g, young man two years older. He is very at tentive. His nights to see me consist of three evenings a week. He speaks of marrying to me: arranges every thing for the future. Claims he loves me. His people are lovely to me but I prefer to have him come oftener. This he will not agree to do. Do you think he cares for me?
 There are not many young men who are attentive and call regularly three evenings each week who will be able to spare the remaining three even ings to visit the same place. Even ings are their only time to look after their affairs, visit relatives. attend 2 lodge, get to a tailor's, or calculate for the future It is selfish to ask a man to pass every evening with a young lady.

THE LABoRERs FOR
 THE HARVEST.

Every year in July there goes up the annual cry for the laborers who shall harvest the crops. In the grain country the railroad trains filled with harvest hands on their way to work are a sight, All types of humanity can be found.
 There are bright faced. eager col lege boys anxious to help pay their tuition, blea.r eyed drunkards out of the city for long enough to. acquire the funds for the next spree. There are trarnps of the type known on the road as gay cats. !" They take sea sonaI jobs for a few weeks to gain a few dollars. intending to spend the rest of the year in Yagrancy. It is a motley crew. The farmer has to take anything he can get, and few questions can be asked.
 In good times it may seem at the start almost impossible to get the extra, help. Yet somehow or other it is secured, and the crops are sue workers that can be drawn into the agricultural districts for a short time job IS a revelation of the number of seasonal workers. It shows that great many families must be depend ing on men whose means of Livelihood is very intermittent and precarious.
 According to social students, many OA OttSSO SSeSoAoeL WO4 NSA D. NHAO e@1 v oO- pended on as harvest hands in sum- ner. are men of low mentality, who could not held regular jobs. No doubt many of. them are the victims of parental vice. crime or ignorance. They never acquired education enough to make of themselves anything more than emergency value.
 Socialists will say that this indicates there is a great quantity of surplus labor which. owing to the. abuses of capitalism can find no regular. enn- ployment. But in most eases there is probably a lack of fitness for regular tasks. Usually the man who is capa- ble of regular work gets it, subject of course to the vicissitudes of occasion al business depression. But it is an indication of social disease when so large a supply ow unemployed labor CTS can be so readily secured.

 An exceedingly practical and pretty frock is this. made of cotton poplin. to be worn with separate collar and cuffs of henstitched organdy If a little, more decoration is desired trimming bands Of self material edged with mar row lace will have the effect of the Fashionable bolero. The front closing of the waist is continued down the three-piece skirt which may be in regulation or shorter length A dress of this sort is wonderfully serviceable for summer wear in gfngham, percale or chambray. Medium size requires A yards S6-fnch material and 1A yards lace if the bolero effect is added
 IF the smaller parts Of the pattern are wished to be disposed of quickly, then cut first from a fold of the pop-s lin, placing the collar first, then the back of the waist and back gore of the skirt in order named on the fold of material. Opposite the collar, on lengthwise thread are laid the piecfng for the back gore, the strap, band and belt.
 These being cut and placed aside there remain only three larger parts to be cut. Upon an open width of the material the front gore is laid near wage edge, is placed the front of the waist. To the right or the front comes the sleeve
 For the open neck it will be necessary to cut out the neck edge of front about E inch above single small .'o'' perfora- tions. The double 100" perforations show where the sleeves are to be cut for the elbow effect There are also small 70" perforations to mark how the skirt may be shortened
 These simple frocks are highly favor ed by we'll dressed women. as their severity is easily relieved by adjustable details that lend snartness and are yet in keeping with the unpretentio4ls air of the model.
