MOTHER OF MARY
PHAGAN SUES FIRM
Asks $4,000 for Death of Girl
in Frank Case-ConIey Again
Questioned.

ATLANTA, Ga. Jan. A-Mrs. J. w.
Coleman. mother Of Mary Phasan. tho
little girl whose tragic death in the
factory OF the National Pencil Com
pany has become q countrywide mys-
terry, has filed suit against the CORPORA
loss of what the girls contribution to
lived.
The complaint charges that tho girl
ttendent of the factory. and James Con-
ley. colored sweeper.
The suit charges the company with
the responsibility for the safety and
premises on tho business OF tho com
pany.
Frank is now fighting for his life
against a conviction for murder. and
.Tniey sftar .1ns ,s serving hsan year, sentence
an accessory after the fact in connec-
tfon with the crime. The men are pris-
oners in the same jail.
Into the case has come a new investi-
gator. confident Of her ability to find
the thread that will lead to a solution
or the inexplicable.
The young woman is Lillian NJ. schu-
bel. Of Grand Rapids. Mich. She has
been here more than a week, spending
most OF her time at the county court
house. SO far no one has learned any-
thing to contradict her explanation that
Sne is moved solely by an altrutstic
desire for justice.
Miss schubel has replied to several
inquiries that. she Is employed by no
person or agency to investigate the
case: that she is acting on her own
initiative. spending her own money, and
working to learn Just how Mary Phagan
met her death.
Governor Station gave her his per-
mission to investigate.
Miss Schubel's actions have been
clothed with secrecy. and the first move
that has become more than q matter Of
speculation was her examination yes
terday of Jim Conley.
At the request of the county commits
sioners, the Interrogation was witnessed
by three clergymen. the Rev. John u.
White the Rev. &. b. Wilmer, and tho
Rev. r. Il. Gribbens.
Although the girl pressed questions
upon the negro for forty-five minutes,

answers or none at all. He repeated

If he tries to sell what he has instead
of what he hasn't, it is small wonder
that he loses interest in everything
except keeping his head above water.
But this is not all. The honest
grocer is constantly subjected to the
unfair competition of the dishonest
cut-price store with questionable bar
gains in low-grade goods. which ap-
parently sell as readily to indiscrimin-
ate buyers as the products Of solid
merit carried by the honest dealer.
In order that he may be able to
meet this competition it is not sur
prising that some of these inferior
products should find their way into
the stock and stores of many grocers
who would not touch them unless
forced to it by this unfair competi-
ton. This is . condition of affairs
that is plainly evil, yet through no
fault of the grocer.
1t is therefore unjust to demand
that the grocer alone and single
handed reform this condition for
which ne is in no way responsible, and
against which he has fought-and

easy enough for the grocer to quote
this in his defense. But that ancient
legal villiany does not now apply.

As to the Income Tax.

With whom is the income tax ''un. popular?" Surely with those who have to pay it. That, however, is true of all taxes. No one enjoys paying them A tax is a necessary evil But the best tax is that which is imposed, not on needs, but on property. We have in this country for years been tax. ing people, not on their property, but on their needs. The man with an in. come of, say. $2,5O0 year, and with a half-dozen children. paid to the fed. eral government vastly more than the bachelor with an income of $10O,0O0 a year. Nothing could be more unjust than that.
 We believe that the principle is thoroughly established in this coun. try and that even were Joe Cannon elected president-which is, of course, unthinkable-there would be no sug. gestion looking to the repeal of the income tax. It is here to stay-and 1t ought to stay. For 1t is good tax. There could be no better proof of it's merit than its supposed "unpopu. larity."

Scholarly Veto Message.

President Wilson never has written finer or more convincing state paper than that which accompanies his veto of the immigration bill. Brushing aside all the "darkening of counsel by words without knowledge" which has aff1ict- ed congress in considering this mat ter, he goes at once to the heart of the heart of the question, and rejects the bill because it violates the prin ciples on which the great republic is built.
 Tt seeks to all but close entirely the gates of asylum which have always been open to those who could find no where else the right and opportunity of constitutional agitation for what they conceived to be the natural and inalienable rights of men, and it ex- cludes those to whom the opportuni- ties of elementary education have been denied without regard to their character. their purposes or their nat ural capacity.
 Restrictions like these, adopted earlier in our history as a nation would very materially have altered the course and cooled the humane ar dors of our politics.
 ''The right of political asylum has brought to this country many man of noble character and elevated pur pose who was masked as an outlaw in his own less fortunate land, and who has yet become an ornament to our citizenship and to our public councils" :"
 Unless this journal is much mis- taken, the people will back the presi- dent in his action. There may be need to restrict immigration; there is no need to base restrictions on injustice and prejudice.

POLICY OF FAIRNESS
Democratic Attitude Toward Big
 Business"
Follow the Rules of the Game, Says President Wilson, and the coun- try Will Be Behind Him in
 the Stand Taken.

The true American attitude toward business was admirably defined by President Wilson in a single para graph of his speech to the American Electric Railway association:
 You are not to be barred from the contest because you are big and strong, and you are not going to be penalized because you are big and strong, but you are going to observe the rules of the track and not get in anybody's way, except as you can keep out of his way by having more vigor and skill than he has"
 This is the sum and substance of the Sherman antitrust law and of the Clayton amendment. Every business man knows whether or not he is fol lowing the rules of the game.
 The case against the Standard Oil company was not for being big but for fouling it's competitors on the track, and that is the case against ev- cry conspiracy in restraint. of trade which has been dealt with under the Sherman law.
 So far as business is concerned the period of uncertainty is over, as the president has said. The rules of the game have been defined, and these rules are an expression of the general public conscience. For years the managers of big business have insist. ed that they could adapt themselves to any conditions if they only knew what those conditions were. This was a just complaint. but it has been met. Thefe is no manager of a great indus try in the country who does not know in general way what is expected of him, or who does not know that noth- ing unjust or unreasonable is expected of him.
 What the president calls "the maze of interrogation points" has been left behind. American industry has a clear field and no favors. All it needs now is courage.

KEEP IDLE HORSES HEALTHY
Best Thing for Azoturia Is Prevention, Says Doctor Reynolds-Water and
 Exercise Essential.

The symptoms of azoturia are easily recognizable. A horse comes out of the stable apparently in the best of condition. He is driven but a short dis tance before he shows signs of lame ness or stiffness in his hind legs. He staggers and may fall before he can be unhitched. He perspires freely. The muscles over the Joins and hips become rigid and frequently tender, often trembling and twitching.
 According to Dr. M. H. Reynolds the best thing for azoturia is proven tion. When horse must remain idle for few days the grain ration should be reduced. If horse is very fat he should be fed no grain. Every horse should be given plenty of water and turned out for exercise daily. If the grain ration has not been reduced dur ing a period of idleness in any case, the horse should have a cathartic be- fore being put into harness again. A quart of raw linseed oil 36 hours be- fore hitching is a safe dose. Work should be light for the first day after idleness, as violent exercise is likely to invite an attack.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and
 Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul. phur Hair Remedy" You will get . large bottle for about 50 cents. Every. body uses this old, famous recipe, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does 1t so naturally and evenly. You dampen . sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morn ing the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
