DIAMOND WEARERSARE
SCORED BY ATTORNEY
I !. FOR Milk PRODUCERS

Minneapolis, Nov. 8.-Minneapolis
women who have campaigned for
lower milk prices. and better milk
were scored"by M. D. Mum, attor-
ney for the Twin City Milk Produ-
GERS association, at the organiza-
tons annual stockholders meeting.
Mr.. Mum said he had no sympathy
for women who wore silks, diamonds
and $25 shoes and protested against
II cents quart for milk.
II have no sympathy with these
people," said Mr.. Mum, though I
don't believe anyone should take ex-
cessive profits on food products at
any time.
Many women come to these pro-
test meeting swearing silks and dia-
monds that cost large sums of money
and they wear shoes that cost $25
a pair, but they kick on paying II
cents quart for the best food prod
uct that can be obtained"
The attorney said the milk produ-
GERS were selling milk below cost Of
production, but he urged the pro-
duceTs to be calm and work for a
better understanding by all the peo-
pie and then ask for reimbursement.
1.-THE order Of the commission re-
ducing milk to 10 cents quart was
like throwing monkeywrench into
a cream separator" the speaker said.
1--WE are told unofficially that the
price will be in effect year, so if
we lose this winter we can make it
up newt summer. We cannot tell
what feed prices will be next sum-
mer."

PRIMITIVE BAPTISTS
DEDICATE NEW CHURCH

Two large audiences greeted
Rev. w. NJ. Blackwell at both the
morning and evening services at
the new church, just completed
by the members of the Primitive
Baptist faith living in the city.
The church is a beautiful struc-
ture, a credit to the city and the
people who so Literally contribut-
ed to its erection. The church is
comfortably arranged for the
convenience of the attendants,
modern pews having been install
ed through the foretfought of D.
w. M. Whitley, one OF the lead
ing spirits of this congregation.
For the present the church OPP
crates as one of the branches Of
the Willacoochee Baptist church,
but hopes to organize an indepen-
dent church some time during the
spring. The church was erected
by popular subscription of many
citizens, among the larger sub
scribers being w. G.. Dorninev,
John Fl. Dorminey, j. Y. and w.
T. Paulk and a number of well
wishers, both in the city and
county.
Rev. Walter M. Blackwell, the
young pastor of the church, is but
a recent acquisition to this sec
ton, having removed to the coun-
ty from North Georgia about a
year ago, and soon conceived the
idea to have the church building
OF his denomination in the city,
and with the cooperation of his
co-religionists living here can
now point with pride to one of the
neatest little churches in the city,
a monument to his zeal.

BY FLORIDA COURT

yesterday afternoon in the Grim
NAL court of record, he having
been on trial for alleged assault
to commit murder. There was
another similar charge against
him and also two cases of alleged

hese three cases have been nolle
pressed.
On Thursday the case of the
state OF Florida VS.. Joseph C.
Brewer, resident of Fitzgerald,
Ga, was called for trial in the
criminal court of record, Judge
James NJ. Peeler, presiding. This
was an information filed against
Brewer last October, charging
him with an assault upon Russell
Groves with intent to murder
Groves.
1t was charged in detail in the
information that Brewer on Aug.
II last year ran his automobile
into Groves in this county. The
trial of the case continued
throughout Thursday and until
yesterday afternoon, when Judge
Peeler charged the jury. In the
charge to the jury the court in
structed them that the evidence
clearly showed that Brewer had
not been guilty OF all assault with
an intent to commit murder either
in the first degree or the, second
degree and further instructed that
under the evidence the jury could
not bring in a verdict of guilty of
any crime higher in degree than
assault with intent to commit
manslaughter by negligently op-
Grating his automobile. The jury
was out only a few minutes and
returned a verdict of not guilty Of
all charges.
There were several other in
dictments pending against Brew
er and his chauffeur, Major
Brown, all relating to the same
matter. All of these indictments
were nolle pressed by the county
solicitor after the jury had rend-
cred verdict of not guilty in the
case that was tried.
1t will be recalled that last Aug.
