The body was borne from the home by four stalwart nephews and grand nephews and bur ail WAS in Voiuntown where she WAS born and where her husband and kind- red are buried. Mrs. Gallup V ss much beloved and her Woodstock friends will not forget her genial dignity and loyal friendliness and her helpful interest in whatever was for Woodstock E best interest.

They had placed Bosh Fielder on the dele

to be Chairman of delegation that has Bosh
on it's list I didn't at the time consider it
worth fighting for.
So, the delegation went to Baltimore, and
it there presented a truly rural and eXqulsltely
regular spectacle to mankind
It didn't do anything in particular. With
a delicious Bourbon stupidity, it kept on vot-
ing for Oscar Underwood day after day,
night after night, when a blind mule might
have seen that Oscar wasn't in it; and the net
result was, that Champ Clark, whose con

got the nomination by fraud, by liquor, by

but that wouldn't make bit of difference.
We Democrats would vote for him anyhow.

dailies were full of the sayings of the sub
lime lawyer aoho hard used his p0acer as Con-

''S0Wy, qchnt mast are d0?"
And Slaton himself said that "Sally
answered,
Jack, let's commute"
The sub-head in the paper struck me as
funny, reading as it did,
"SALLY COMPUTES! !"
So when I was relating how Slaton had
reversed our State Supreme Court, and the
U. S. Supreme Court, and the Prison Com
mission, [ loosely referred to the final dec-
sion as having been made by Mrs. Slaton,
and not by her husband
AS he had called her Sally, and had rep
resented her as having been in fact the
chiefest of all the Chief Justices, [ saw no
harm in giving her the title.
She herself did lot of talking for the
papers, up North, and it was not easy to keep
from laughing at some of 1t, particularly her
description of how sweetIy John Slaton
snored, while the melish were keeping off
''the mob"
AS I remember it, she said that John had
on pink silk pajamas, and was lying abed,
"snoring sweetly," at the time his barbed wire
had been electrified, his grounds picketed,
and his mansion encircled with soldiers.

THE UNDERWOOD CAMPAIGN OF 1912.
The Yelled Prophet Of The Forum says:
In 1912 Watson 'came back with the most
dramatic feat of his career Taking advantage of
the rivalry among the leading Democrats, he
espoused the cause of Oscar Underwood for the
Presidential nomination and carried the presi-
Dental primary for the ALBANIAN. If l mistake
not, he the "original Underwood man." any
way Underwood's victory in Georgia most
distinctly Watson victory. Watson was so keen
over this evidence of his dominance in State
politics that he announced he must be one Of the
States delegation to Baltimore. 1t had been all
right to let this Populist settle their primary
fights, but to send this avoWed enemy of the
Democratic party, this perpetual bolter, as the
partys representative to it's National Convention
was another matter. Those who believed some
party dignity should be maintained protested
Watson made spectacular journey through the
country to Atlanta and, surrounded by cOurtiers
and armed guardsmen and backed by horde of
his followers went the convention floor and
forced his election as a delegate at large He
not only forced them to name him a delegate
but by trick of clever diplomacy was kept
from making himself chairman of the delega-
ton!

THE .JEFFERSONIAN
Thursday, January IL, 1917.

7 have already stated in The .Jeffersonian,
szonths and months ago, that if Slaton de-
mands of me the facts in regard to this offer,
those facts a0iU be forthcomi7g
The messenger IS a man whose word will
be taken as true, from Montana to Florida,
and from North Carolina to California.
Does the Yelled Prophet want to know who
that man is and what message from John
Slaton he bore to me?
Ii so, let the bushwhacl1er drop his mask
come out into public view, place himself on
level with me, and make has demand.
I WILL INSTANTLY RESPOND TO IT
The masked assailant says further:
Watson openly advocated the lynching of Frank
and commended and defended the mob which at
tackled Governor Stations home, in such words as
when mobs no longer possible liberty will
be dead He defended the mob which later
lynched Frank, calling them ''viglantes
The statement that I advocated secretly or
openly, the lynching of Frank, is false
If it were true, [ would not deny it, be-
cause, within certain limitations, I believe
that the people, who authorize court-execu-
tons, retain the power, Themselves, to put
down crime.
WITHIN those limitations, all peoples en-
force Lynch law.
Why does the Code give you the right to
expel the trespasser, with just such force as
you find necessary? And to kill a man, to pre-
vent him from stealing your horse or burga-
rizing your house? Or to anticipate and Stay
the assailant who manifestly means to at
tempt your life?
It is because the lar is too slow to save you,
.and you must SAFE yourself
In like manner, the law may be too slow
and uncertain to sava>a>>Nenaced community,
and that community must exercise its IN
herent right to defend itself.
General w. t. Sherman helped to hang
white men in San Francisco, under Lynch
law, who were not as bad as Leo Frank and
whose guilt had not been judiciaIzy as
certQ1nGd.
In the South, such men as Generals For
rest, Toombs, DuBose, Hampton, Butler,
Gary and Gordon put into practice the princi-
pie to which [ have referred.
The Law could not have accomplished what
was done by the Vigilantes of the West and
the Ku Klux of the South

So far was I from advocating the lynching
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1917-01-11
PLEASE READ THIS !

So far was from advocating the lynching
of Frank, that [ was in correspondence with
Solicitor Dorsey and Others with view to
bringing Writ of Habeas Corpus against
the Manager Smith at the State Farm, to test
the legality of the Slaton Communication.
[ considered it null and void, and believed
that Frank could be legally remanded to Full
ton County, for execution By the Sheriff, e'e-
der the sentence Of the Courts.
AS to Slaton, and "the mob'' which scared
