My learned DTOIner, the Attorney -OeneIdl3
has treated me In exactly the same way: am
under Indictment aheady, and, in law, am
prisoner at the bar: the Attorney General
rails at me through the press, PROCLAINS
ny GUILT, and practically orders q con-
victi0n!
If [ we are to assume that the opinion OF
my learned brother carries any weight any
where, then he has at least deprived me Of
a fair trial, at that place. Of course, l do
not know for certain that such place Exists.
It may be that the opinion of the Attorney
General carries great weight, eueaYqohere; and
it is equally possible that such an opinion{
carries weight, noa0here; but one thing is self
evident-my learned brother has done some
thing that none Of his predecessors ever did:
he has told the country that he has already
tried the defendant on the evidence in the
case, and has condemned the defendant as
unquestionably guilty.
If Uncle Sam cannot get a fair trial in
Georgia, where can [ m0aO get one?
My case has been pre-judged, PREJU-
DICED BEYOND REMEDY!
To what State in the Union can [ now turn
for an u7oprejmdiced hearing?
My learned brother has already stripped
me of noy legal right to be considered inn0-
cent, until my guilt is established by sworn
testimony, in court of competent juris-
diction.
By what principle of law does my learned
brother deprive the State and the District in
which [ live, of jurisdiction over me?
Upon what grounds, does he change the
Ue2eate IN contemptuous disregard of Judges
Lambdn and Speer?
If my learned brother will consult his
Blackstone, he will refresh his memory suffi-
GENTLY to again know what he has apparently
forgotten, to-wit; that the very word Venue
was chosen to express the idea, that defend
ant must be tried in the ricinity of his alleged
crime. (Vicinia, Latin form: Vi8me, the
French)
All lawyers will recollect the old Saxon
law, of the time of King Alfred, which held
the entire ell, or vicinage, responsible for
felony committed therein, if the will allowed
the felon to escape from that jurisdiction.
Every definition of the word ''Venue' con-
tains the same idea: that of the neighborhood
of the alleged crime, from which the jury
must be drawn.
Can my learned brother trace the law back
a1.v farther?
Does he know that, in the remotest. most
primitive ages it was the right of the Teutonic
peoples to be tried by neighbours in the
vicinity of the alleged crime, and by their
equals?
Suppose, when the Abolitionists were
factious minority, the Government, con-
trolled by the Southern slave-owners, had
proposed to bring into the South, for trial,
such incendiary agitators as Wendell Phil
lips and William Lloyd Garrison!
Or some of the leaders who were openly
violating the Fugutive-Slave Law!
Suppose that Henry Ward Beecher, or his
sister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, had been in
dicted in South Carolina for propagating
infammatory literature
Would the East and North haze submitted
to 1t?
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1916-02-10

Twenty men seek Uncle Sem, and tell him
that he cannot obtain justice in Georgia.
Twenty Not enough to constitute an I'M
posing Grand Jury! Did Uncle Sam put
these twenty Georgians under oath? Were
they cross examined? Did they file any a1fi-
davits, supporting their infamous libel on
their State?
WHO ARE THESE MEN?
If all Georgians, excepting the immaculate
twenty, sympathized with my defense OF
Georgia laws, courts, and womanhood, then
the cause must have been a good one.
Without office, not rich, growing old, the
25-year leader of minority, | must have
struck the right chord if as the Government
says, my people refuse to penallze and crush
me, for having met their enemies IN the gate.
They know quite we'll, that never touched
the Frank case until after the Atlanta Jour-
nal had said in viciously abusive editorial,
that, if Frank was executed under the sem
tence which had been approved by our SUI
preme Court, it would be ''judicial murder"
Was it objectionable crime, in the eyes OF
my learned brother, the Attorney General,
for me to act as the Attorney for the Com
monwealth, and lay it's case before the bar of
Public Opinion?
Under similar circumstances, would not
brother Gregory have defended the imperial
State of Texas?
Ny crime was committed last Summer, if at
all: the Government lay still for months,
waiting apparently to see what would happen
in the trial before Judge Lambdin.
What connection has the two cases? Why
did the Government wait until it became evil
dent that a Georgia jury will not prostitute
itself to the service of the Roman Catholic
Hierarchy?
In whose interest is the Attorney General
bounding me and threatening to ruin, not
only me, but The Jetfersonian Publishing
Company, by an unheard of prosecution in
several different States?
If he is working for purity in the mails,
he begins at the wrong end. He should vir-
tuously bounce some of those Northern pub
fishers who deluge the country with erotic
novels, lewd Sunday supplements, Roman
Catholic "moral theology;" the books on Nor
monism, the White Slave traffic and Prostitu-
tion and the English translations of hcen-
tious French Italian and Russian stories.
My learned brother, Gregory, might begin
by indicting the Smithsonian Institution. the
lady translator, and the Senators and Repre-
sentatives who mailed the book entitled
"Tschimsian Texts" the nastiest thing I've
perused In many day.
Speaker Champ Clark would have to be
indicted sOmeWhere-or several wheres-for
it was my friend, the Speaker, who mailed
me my copy.
If must be carted around from State to
State, in search of prejudiced jury, such
jovial companion as Champ Clark would
mitigate the suffering, although it would be
tough on him.
But, of course, if the Smithsonian Institu-
ton and all the ladies are given seats in the
cart, we might manage to make merry pur-
suit of place where Uncle Sam can get
justice.

Strahorn Says Oregon S
Future Is in Reclamation

PORTLAND, March 20.-The sal
walton of development in Oregon de-
pends on the reclamation of lands in
Central Oregon through the extension
of state credits. said Robert E. Stra-
horn. railroad builder and promoter
Of the proposed Oregon, California
& Eastern lines. at its meeting in
the Oregon grill.
''The complacent lack Of knowledge
OF conditions Is the most distressing
thing in connection with the prob
lem." he said People are not at
all familiar with the fact that land
can be reclaimed cheaply In that dis
trict. l know of one marsh section
that could be drained for an eX-
pense of $40 an acre and at the same
time be provided with irrigation at
an expense of an additional SO.
Half the entire area could be irri-
gated ut from s25 to $S5 an acre.
Nothing like that can be done in
the western part of the state. Land
Is too expensive. large part of the
available land is logged off and in
such condition that 1t will cost 800

to $500 an acre to clear it. Central
Oregon is the only place for the poor
man"
Mr.. Strahorn took a hard rap at
the recent Salem conference ON rural
credits, irrigation and drainage. He
said that the controlling element
was obsessed with the idea of rural
credits and refused to let him and
others who went there with the idea
of presenting plan for aiding in
the development of the eastern and
central parts of the state through
irrigation have chance to present
their ideas.
He told of the harships he was
meeting in financing the Central Or
cgon railroad. He blamed this large
ly on Portland financial men who de-
mand direct returns on their money
rather than the indirect returns which
would come to Portland and the state
in general from railway system that
would link all the roads now tapping
the edges of great farming and
stockraising district comprising an
area equal to that of Ave Eastern
states.
