POLLARDs TRIAL.
WILL Be RESUMED
FAMOUS STRIKE BREAKING CASE
IN ATLANTA is FULL OF
INTEREST.

ATLANTA. Dec. 2.--Admitting that
he ordered the printing of ten thou
sand of the famous "scab" circulars
for which he is now on trial on a
felony indictment, and accepting full
responsibility for the circulation of
the same. w. M. Pollard, trolley car
strike organizer and labor agitator,
took the stand late yesterday after
neon and closed the case for the de.
tense with a statement to the jury
But while admitting that he order
ed the circulars printed and circulated
Pollard vigorously denied that he had
any intention of inciting violence or
rioting in connection with the recent
trolley car strike which he staged in
this city and claimed that his princi-
pal reason for giving the circular
such wide disGbution was because so
many of the striking trolley men had
taken fancy to it and urged him to
provide them with liberal supply to
hand out on the streets.
When this strike is all over" Pol
lard declared in conclusion, "the pub
lie will realize that ! have done a
great deal t. prevent violence, in.
stead of being guilty of inciting viol-
ence, either by means of this circular
or by any other means"
The trial was adjourned over until
Monday morning by Judge Ben H.
Hill of Fulton superior court, who de
clared yesterday that there could be
no question or argument owe the fact
that a "state of tumult and riot" pre-
vailed in Atlanta on the night Of Sep
tember 30, when he strike was call
ed and accordingly ruled out all evi-
dence concerning the behavior Of the
crowds.

Suggestion of Judge Max
Isaac Meets With Hearty
Approval.
MOVEMENT is UNDER WAY
Lists Were Out Yesterday and
Chances are That The New
Organization Will be Formed
During the Coming Week.

The suggestion of Judge Max Isaac
published in yesterdays News that
the people of Brunswick organize a
$4,000 Club met with a hearty re.
sponse on the part Of the p pie of
Brunswick. In less than an hour aft
er thl list Wa: circulated fifty of
Brunswick's leading citizens had
signified their willingness to aid the
movement. First to sign was Mayor
j. Hunter Hopkins. who pledged his
support and who agrees with Judge
Isaac ! lat the time is propitious for
Just such a move. All agree that the
psychological moment has arrived in
the history of Brunswicks progress
for the population to get together on
the Broad platform of Bigger
Broader and Better Brunswick, that
they do something to take care of the
new conditions that are now upon US.
The newcomers should be met in a
spirit of cordiality and shown that the
citizenry Of this lovely city are glad
that they are here and make them
feel at home. Their needs and wants
should be made more a matter of our
concern The matter of homes and
accommodations and a thousand and
one other things need some real live.

ed here
It is not the purpC /' of the 25 900
Club to ercroach upon the Board Of
Trades work. Indeed it is the plan
and purpose of those behind the new
organization to work in complete har-
mony with the trade organization and
deed to act as an AUXILIARY to it and
to act as an auxiliary to il and
cies of the case may require. There
is room enough for both organizations
and they should both prosper and de
velop as Brunswick is bound to pros
per and flourish under the new con
ditions which surround her. Every
8runswickian having the best interest
of the city at hear should join hands
and make the Brun@wick $4,000 Club
a great success.
Membership lists will be distribut-
Cd about the city in the course of the
next few days and all ara urpad fc
sign as soon as possible Then 3
meeting will be called to be held at
the city hall or some other centrally
located point, officers and directors
will be elected and the movement
launched.
