SUCH is the outrageously insulting head

typed articles inspired bv the Big Money that
has 50 long been conducting the unprece-
denied campaign of yiiication against the
State Of Georgia
When the New York and Washington law
yers landed Franks case in the United States
Supreme Court, the Big Money crusaders
cried out
''Ah ha! We have at last oot the case away
from mob fury, jungle 'sayagery. race hatred,
and drunken negro evidence. N0p, we will
see the law vindicated."
Of course, those of us who know the law,
never for moment doubted what the de-
cision of the United States Supreme Court
would be.
There never had been scintilla of evidence
produced, to show that "mob influence and
negro evidence" had had the slightest influ-
ence on the jury.
Even the dissent of Justices Holmes and
Hughes went no farther than this:
IF the statements made bv Franks lawyers
could be p100ed, there would be a sufficient
reason for this Court to l0Oh into the matter.
That is ALL If Franks lawyers ever could
have proved any of the wild statements made
and published as to "the mob" the evidence

[ am always inclined to give my adversary
the benefit Of the doubt as to his intentional

which can easily be shown to be such.
One exception to this rule is Cardinal Glib
bons, who must be presumed TO k7e02o the Inw

Catholics that Romanism is opposed to the

That someone was standing in the

seen the newspapers, had hurried to
his apartment, and then. instinctively
guessing where he had gone, had hast

She saw him seated at the desk and
knew that minute later would have
been too late. She ran to him with
a cry. The weapon dropped from his
hand and rolled under the desk.
"Will, my dear boy!" she sobbed.
Come home with me now. You must
not think of that. Remember that
you are my boy through everything
and who has ever cared for you as
much as II"
He rose from his desk and put his
arms about her.
"You are right, mother" he said;
and they went out of the Office to-

Mrs, Wright had called peremptori-
ly to hide the shock of the news. She
had stood with her hand upon the
jamb OF the door during the entire
conversation. She had seen Daisy
Dean. her husbands stenographer, two
or three times. and she had noticed
with disapprovai the little affectation
of the girl always to have bunch OF
daisies upon her desk. Once or twice
her husband had come home wearing
one of the flowers In his buttonhole.
He had come home with one that
night.
Wright, who loved his wife sincere
ly, had not failed to note the little sign
OF jealousy against the girl who was
his business confidant. On that ac-
count he had said nothing about the
reason for his automobile drive stth
her that day. Perhaps he would have
been wiser had he done so. But the
meal passed almost In silence, and he
attributed his wife's moroseness to
her plea Of nervous headache.

Mr.. E. H. Aull, in behalf of the New

Kennedy invited the committee to

one vote majority. The first meeting
will be held at Union next Wednesday.
This central committee will appoint

Ultimately in the construction of this
highway. As president Matthews said
at one of the meetings, it is not a
question of do We want the highway,
but it is a question Of can we afford
not to have it That is the spirit that
actuated all who were in the party
and with whom we met on the trip.
In view of tie weather conditions a
few days before the trip and on Wed
nesday the Newberry party had most
remarkable trip in the fact that good
time was made, no accidents incurred
and no mishaps to any Of the cars.
The road from Newberry to Whitmire
was in fairly good condition consider
ing the rain during the week. From
Wsitmire to Union the road was not
so good. Some of it had been fresh
worked and then after going about
five miles from Whitmire we ran into
a rain, or rather the rain was just
ahead Of US and we had the red mud
Of the Union mills to encounter. The
hill beyond Tiger river is some hill
in dry weather, but just after this
heavy rain, with the road bed already
soft, it took some pulling to get over
it. Even the big 60-horsepo#er Mitch

out to meet the party. The people OF
the towh are interested in the move
ment and a conference was. held with
several gentlemen in tie rooms of the
chamber of commerce and much inter-
est manifested. Supervisor Jeter says
that Union may be counted on to do
Ter part. And that the pull will be
taken out of the hill just beyond the
Tiger river.
From Union the party left for Glenn
Springs about o'clock and reached
tie springs about 8 o'clock, a distance
of Is miles The road from Union to
Glenn Springs is very good. At the
springs the party was met by a COM
mittee of the Community club, or
which Prof. H. P. Boggs is president,
and a delightful luncheon was served
the visitors by the ladies of the Com
munity club. A number of cars joined
tie party at Union and it should have
been stated that Messrs. William Cole
man and Thad S. Coleman went over
from Whitmire.
After the luncheon meeting was
held to organize and appoint central
committee to take up the aa..ve work
