 Mir. Deuel, Waite's counsel, wrote a letter, showing that Waite's confes- sion was made with his consent:
 The statement made by Arthur Warren Waite is one that he desired to make to unburden his soul some what from the heavy load upon it, and as he was insistent that his confession should be published, as the only thing he could do in antonement, acceded to his demands and have not advised against the publication of it, which is as he wrote.

Wonderful Story
 of Waite Murder

Especial to Gateway by United Press)
 NEW YORK, May 22. - With the opening of the trial of young Dr. Arthur Warren Waite here today on the charge of poisoning his milton aire parents-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. John E. Peck, of Grand Rapids, Mich, there begins to pour into the dry records of the New York Supreme Court one of the most sensational and astounding stories of fortune hunting illicit love, murder, intrigue and deception that has ever been dis closed, us the alleged record of one man.
 Waites formal plea was mot guilty" but he may change it today
 The state will attempt to prove that the slender, nattily attired, smiling youth who sits quietly before a long table in this drab and silent court room, deliberately wooed and married Clara Peck with the precOnceived in- tention of murdering her, her father and mother and any other persons it might be necessary to murder in order that he might get possession of the Peck millions.
 The state will introduce evidence to prove that Waite, married to Clara Peck and having Mrs Elizabeth Hort on as his Studio Companion" in a big New York hotel, actually did get Mir. and Mrs. Peck to New York on a visit and murder them by poisoning them with arsenic;
 That he got his wife to will he estate to him and was planning her murder as the third of the series in his alleged scheme to get the Peck millions;
 And that after murdering his mother-in-Iaw and engineering the cremation of her body to prevent the discovery of the cause of her death, he bribed a New York under taker with $9,OOO, ($ISOO of this amount was found where the under taker told the police he hid iN, to swear that arsenic was used in the fluid employed in the embalming of his father-in-law's body.
 With his wife turned against him and prosecuting her suit for divorce; and Margaret Horton, his Studio Companion" fresh from the triumphs of a vaudeville engagement won as a result of the publicity she gained from her association with him, Waite faces his fight against the electric chair without the support of the woman he married or the woman he squandered his money on.
 While he lay on a cot in Bellevue hospital, recovering from the effects of poisous he had taken in an attempt to die after the poisoning of h's father-in-law was discovered Waite told several stories of how it had all happened.

By adopting the time-hOnOred County Unit
plan we can protect the small counties of the
District, and at the same time allow the five big
counties the same strength they now have in the
Legislature.
This plan will do violence to any county.
Where does Congressman j. r. Walker stand
ON this issue?
I have information that he favors the POPULAR
vote plan, and is opposed to the County Unit
Where does Mr.. Bowden stand?
Is Judge Langford also in favor of disfran-
chisng the little counties of the District?
Do these think it fair to turn the politics
of District over to the big counties?
If any candidate for Congress from this District
is a party to any scheme whereby these eleven
little counties will lose their voting strength in
the primary I expect to camp that mans trail
in these country counties, and explain to the
voters how they robbed of their constitu-
tiona rights and privileges

+1,HE RSONIAN
Death of John Forrest Watson,
Brother of ThOS. r.. Watson.

When a man has lived all his life in COM
munity; when he has made success of his
life and has overcome obstacles which almost
seemed insurmountable, his fellow-men find
much to criticise in him, in life, and learn
much of him, when he has passed away, that
comes as surprise to them.
AS young man, Forrest" Watson, as he
was known to his townspeople, had few of the
advantages that should have been his, by right.
The family was impoverished by the war,
and all of the children felt the sting of
poverty for many years.
His first venture into that business life
which he afterwards made SO great a sue
cess of, was in the selling of "hghtwood"
taken from the stumps on some land which
his brother, Thos. b., had acquired. These
stumps young Forrest" pulled up, almost
unaided, and with the proceeds of their sale
he branched out into business for himself.
Honest, fearless, devoted father and hus-
band, his home life was as nearly ideal as
could be- With the years, he developed
business acumen that. made him able to cope
with almost every branch of mercantile en-
deavor.
One of the phases of his life that few knew
of, was his charity. just how many men and
women were recipients of his bounty, only
those whom he aided can tell. While he lay
well-known resident of the town that "For-
rest Watson gave more to the poor, and did
more real charity work than any other man
in the county"
To his store, for many years. came old men
whom he had known when he himself was
young and struggling. 1t is not known that
all these recipients of his bounty had been
generous to him, but it IS known that he
gave them freely-not only the actual neces-
sities but many of the little luxuries that
old people love.
When his body was made ready for in
terment, there came to the home many old
negroes-some of whom had "belonged to Ole
Marse john" the father of Forrest Watson
some of them from distance-and asked that
they be permitted to gaze for the last time on
the face of the son of their old master,
And many of these negroes had been pen
sioners, unknown to anyone.
AS to his achievements in the business
world, that has no part with this history of
him. In this, one thinks only of the gentle,
tender hearted man who did not forget, in
his own success, those who had been less
fortunate
He has gone, and for many days there will
be tear-dimmed eyes when mention is made
of him.
To his family, one would not dare proffer
a word that would be meant to comfort, nor
to lessen the grief; that cannot be done by
any but the One who tempers even the grief
of the final separation, with a sense of COM
fort that will finally bring ''that peace which
passeth all understanding"
After his death, it was found he had, for
several months, anticipated it. He had pre-
pared minute directions for disposition of
his body, and the care of those whom he left.
On Sunday, the nineteenth of February,
under the trees of "the old home place" he
was laid to rest. Flowers, of which he was
naSSiOnatev fond covered the mOund and

tention to the fact that Macon is the logical
place for the Convention to be held.
