dTose out a sharp double to right acid
with the bases loaded. sending all three
runners In and making the score TO 4
Pin favor of Richmond. Richmond's hits
were few. bat they were forthcoming at
the right time, and II was largely due
10 this fact that the locals emerged
from the set-to with victory.
The contest yesterday was a good
one after the first inning. and was DOM
mated by hair-raising plays. Shortly
before Jordan drove out that triple that
made the Rochester bunch bite the dust.
tJeAHny Bates saved the day for Rich
mond by making sensational catch in
the right-cenfer garden after long
run. This seems TO be q frequent hap

ssons this season he has pulled victory

life to vindicate the Law, and used thons-

a new trial
Was it Dorsey who delayed the case with
that ridiculous appeal to the United States
Supreme Court?
Was it Dorsey who hurried up the hand

as to get the case before Slaton?
Was it Dorsey who abruptly stepped Bill

No! 1t was Rcsser who u stipulated
Slaton
Slaton also told the Californians that
Judge Roam wrote him letter, asking that
the sentence be committed
In the first place, too much has been made
Of Judge Roan's alleged comments on this
case His official qoord is in the record and
he never changed it, or had the power to
change it, after the case passed him.
4 forged letter was produced, nearly three
months after Judge Roam died, and this
forged letter did not even have a date.
1t pUrported to have been written In Dec
1914" when Judge Roam could not hold a
pen nor dictate a connected letter
That smooth document with Judge Roan's
Stencil1ed signature, was manufactured In
Atlanta, by very smooth lawyer-the same,
perhaps, who manufactured ''W. G.. Jen-
kins" letter, offering the services of The
Jeffersonian to ''Mr. Frank"
Slaton told the Californians that it was
his duty to relieve Frank of the death SEN
tence.
Then, why wasn't the man pardoned?
There is no middle ground.
We now know that Burns Lehon, Hearst,
Straus, Rosser, Slaton, and Frank himself,
meant the Communication to be the entering
qCcdge.
They meant to get Frank out, Gin few
months" and they said so. They sealed his
doom when they said it.
In the meantime, the Northern Jews are
boycotting us. They won't even peel a
Georgia peach. They won't cut a Watson
melon. They have quit drinking Coca
Cola. They won't wipe with Griffin, Geor-
gia, towels. They won't fill any Georgia
ORDERS not even for lard They won't eat

The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-09-02

John Slaton was in San Francisco when
the Mayor threw that bomb-shell into the
ovation which was being given to the rene
gade and this is what, the renegade said
about the execution of his client, Leo Frank:
When former Governor slaton of Georgia, who
committed Franks sentence to life Imprisonment,
was seen at the st. Francis Hotel this morning he
said:
1.-THE miserable mob of assassins who have
murdered Leo Frank will be punished by Cover
nor Harris. He will have behind him every good
citizen Of Georgia.
in the eyes of the world by conyicting of murder
every who was implicated in the coWardIy
act.
|.There is language strong that | would
not it in denouncing this crime.
This is the climax to series of mob violence
that cannot and must net be allowed to go I'M
punished
Georgia will prove it has civilized people
and not barbarian horde by hunting down the
murderers.
eff any man or group of men attempt to con-
done the crime they will no longer be tolerated.
''In that way only can Georgia save her good
name.
every good citizen of Georgia will feel about
this as do.
eve want to see those murderers punished,
and we have confidence Governor Harris will see
it done.
'sTo say am shocked and Mortified is mild I
cannot think of language sufficiently forceful to
express my feelings.
81 feel that the honor of my State is at stake.
I can put it no stronger.
Slaton added that nothing in the way OF threats
or violence, nor this latest appalling outrage,
would deter him from returning to Georgia when
his vacation over, and resumlng his law
practice.
In making long. dishonest reply to the
speech of Mayor Woodward, John S1aton
scored the same old points, and told the
same old lies, on the courts, the jury, the
Solicitor, and the people.
He said it over again, that Frank was
convicted on the evidence OF a drunken
negro, when every lawyer IN the Union
ought to know that, as the negro was con-
fessedly the acc0napAce of the jew, no con-
viction could be had on his testimony
The law Of Georgia requires that the case
against a defendant, eDczusi0o Of the er5-
donce of the accompzice, be made SO strong
as to debar any other reasonable hypothesis,
save that the defendant committed the
crime.
People who are not lawyers are not ex-
pected to know this: therefore, the Con
nollys, the Burnses, the Hearsts, the Strauses,
and the Stations can keep on squawking like
a lot of parrots, and repeating the thread
bare falsehood, that a Georgia Jury con-
demned white man on the evidence of a
negro.
Slaton accused Solicitor Hugh Dorsey of
pressing the case in such a manner as to
force it up to him. Slaton virtually told
the Californians that Dorsey was response
BILE for what happened.
Really, | am almost inclined to feel a
sort of admiration for John Slatons mag
nifcent talent for telling lies. He very
nearly equals German diplomat.
IF he were half as good a lawyer, as he is
liar, he could settle in New York, and take
practice away from Bourke Cochran, Sam
uel Untermeyer, and Elihu Root.
