FRANK LOSES LAST
FIGHT FOR LIFE
Supreme Court Refuses Habeas
Corpus Writ
MINORITY JUSTIFIES APPEAL
Justices Hughes and Holmes Declare
Mob Rule Influenced Jury-Bench
Divided, to 2-Justice Pitney
Writes Asserting Opinion.

Washington.-By a vote of to 2
in the United States Supreme Court
Leo Nj. Frank lost his last chance
of saving his life in the legal battle
which has been waged ever since his
conviction by Georgia court of MUIR
dering Mary Phagan, girl in the fac
tory of which he was superintendent.
Seven of the Supreme Court justices
held there was no reason to grant
habeas corpus writ, which would have
had the effect of forcing a new trial
for Frank and possibly setting him at
liberty.
Two of the justices held that the
circumstances of Franks original trial
justified the high court in granting
him another lease on life. These were
Justices Holmes and Hughes. Justice
Holmes delivered the opinion and JUS
tiee Hughes concurred. Justice
Holmes, in denying the right of Frank
to an appeal 10 the Supreme Court
last November. criticised the mob in
fluence in the jury which first tried
Frank, and which really guided the
Frank attorneys in pleading for the
habeas corpus writ. Justice Lamar
had refused to order a review of the
case a short time before. but Justice
Holiness singing comments had put
hope into the hearts of Franks
friends.
"Mob law" declared Justices
Hughes ami Holmes in their minority
opinion. does not become due pro-
cess Of law by securing the assent Of
a terrorized jury. We are not speak
ing of mere disorder or mere irregu-
larities in procedure. but of case
where the processes of justice are ae-
tually subverted,"
The majority opinion, written by
Justice Pltney, declared that Frank
was not shown 70 have been deprived
Of any right guaranteed TO him by the
Fourteenth Amendment or any other
prov ision oG the Constitution or laws
OF the United State. but. on the con-
trary. he bad been convicted and was
hela ia custody under due process OF
law within the meaning OF the constl-
tuition
Justice Pitney stated that the obli
cation rested on the Supreme Court
to look through the form and into the
very heart and substance of the mat
ter. not only OF the averment in
Franks petition, but in the trial pro
ceedings in the state courts them
selves.

it was at first thought that Mr.. Pier

caused by the loss of blood and he was
not in as serious condition as at first
supposed. This morning Mr.. w. c.

After the cutting Mr.. Pierson was

We Welcome This Corporation.

In another portion of this paper will
be found notice that the Black River
Cypress Company is being organized.
From the official notice it appears
that this Company is to have capital
stock of $3.50, 100000 and it is understood
that it is to be located near Sardinia.
From the information that we can
obtain. this Company will cut The tim.
ber in Dial's Bay, near Turbevllle, and
all of the timber in Black River
Swamp in the vicinity of Sardinia.
It is understood that the promoters
are Louisiana people and are experience
ed saw mill men.
From what we can gather the plant
is to be large one and will employ
perhaps one thousand people. Work
is to commence Immediately, but it
will take some time to install machln.
ery, erect the necessary buildings and
get things in running order.
MIR. C. P. Gable, of Oonner. La,
who has been making all necessary ar
raneements here, returned to his home
Saturday and expects to come back
within the next few days 70 fe2ln
work, Mr.. Gable is a young man,
has made a success in the saw mill
business and owing to his courteous
manner and fair dealings he has had
no trouble whatever in obtaining a
mill cite and getting the necessary
rights of way from the timber lands to
the selected location.
This will be one of the largest in
dustries in the County and will be a
great benefit to the Salem section in
general, and to Sardinia il particular.
With a saw mill this size the large
number of people that it will necessar-
ily have to employ, must be fed and
provided for and the people of Sardin'
ia should now prepare themselves TO
be able to supply the mill employees
with their products, and the merchants
will doubtless, at the proper time, be
able to supply the demands that will
be made upon them.
We congratulate the people OF Sar,
dinia in having met with this good
luck as we are sure that it will mean
the development of that section and
will largely contribute to the prosper
ity of its citizens.

A Good Woman Gone to Her Reward.

Died Monday afternoon about four
O'Clock at the hospital in Sumter, Mrs.
jamie Jenkinson Clark, wife OF Mr.. R.
D. Clark, OF Manning, aged 42 years.
Mrs. Clark was an every day Chris
tian. The beautifying influences Of a
pure religion were spread over life
and character as spotless and charming
as was ever possessed by any of the
noble women who have lived and died
during the ages that are gone. AS
such life was blessing and benefac-
tor to all within the sphere of its in
fuence, so is the death OF such 4 one a
public misfortune, as well as an irrepar
able loss to the home circle made desc
late by her departure. II is difficult to
pay q fitting tribute TO the memory OF
so noble a woman-one whose every
day life was embelliShed by the charm
ing and lcvable attributes her sex.
A perfect lady at all times -under all
circumstances, she seemed born to in
spire the love and respect of all who
were so fortunate as to be acquainted
with her. No one was more willing TO
aid the suffering. cheer the despondent
sustain the weak and to throw over
the frailties of our race the mantle of
Christian charity.
Everything was done that the untir-
ing skill and watchful care of conscien-
tious. painstaking physicians could do,
but love and skill were equally of no
avail. The great destroyer had placed
his signet on her brow and today,
hundreds who loved her living, mourn
her dead. The funeral services were
held yesterday, and was conducted by
her pastor, Rev. G. P. Watson. The
interment was in the Manning ceme-
terry. The deceased leaves three chill
dren and her husband, besides a moth
er and several brothers who
have our heartfelt sympathy, in
this, their hour of bereavement. So
this life has passed into the JOY of her
Lord, the memory OF her life must
prove perpetual Inspiration.
