Third Negro Dies
Bv Mob Violence
Within II Hours

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. l.
The city was quiet last night after
the lynching Of two negroes who were
being taken to the state prison at
Wetumpka, followed by the murder
of a local patrolman at midnight and
the lynching of his slayer early this
morning.
Following a conference with Gov
ernor Kilby today, Circuit Judge Nc
Cord announced that a special session
of the grand jury would be convened
Thursday for the purpose of inves-
tigating the lynchings. The Governor
said the full weight of the state would
be put behind the investigation and
special state agents placed at the dis
posal of the court officials in seeking
evidence to ferret out the lYnchers.
Leaders of the negro race have dis
cusscd the situation with prominent
white citizens of Montgomery and are
evidencing the keenest desire to ayoiC
further trouble.

Suffrage Troubles
to Be Over By 1920

"Mrs. Gait never makes predic-
ton unless she is sure of what she
saws" Mrs. Frederick Blaine Clarke
said at the meeting of the Business
Women's Equal Suffrage Club on
Thursday at the dinner at the Ameri-
can Annex.
But she has predicted that all the
suffrage troubles will be over by 1920,
when the requisite number of states
will have ratified the national amend
ment. Mrs. Clarke explained the
much-misunderstood fact that there
is no Woman's party, but that the
Woman's Voters League is an asso-
citation of women bent upon under
standing pafitics and getting the re-
o.. ed information through citizen
ship schools. They are expected to
belong to some party, but, of course,
to use their influence to purify the
party and not to accept men of un-
doubted immortality, either socially or
politically, which without saying
where sensible women are concerned.
Mrs. Clarke explained why the repub-
licans will not let the democrats get
the credit for pushing the suffrage
amendment through, and why the
democrats are determined that the re-
publicuns shall not get the credit

Palmer Condemns
Orgy of Spending

BALTIMORE, Oct. 1.-Atlorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer attacked
the saturnalia of extravaganza and
the orgy of spending just as bitterly
as he assailed the profteer and gouger
and hoarder yesterday afternoon at
meeting on the high cost of living
at the Garden Theater,
He said that aroused PUBLIC opinion
by itself coul dkill profteering If the
people only made up their minds to do
so; THAI if the public would only de
termine that prices must fall and stick
to their decision, the result would be
immediate and decisive.
But the basic trouble lies deeper
than that. in his opinion. Idleness, he
characterizes as the great sin in this
emergency of the nation--idleness,
not only of the man VINO works with
his hands, but of his money. Along
with this idleness of the man who
works with his brains the next great
est sins are "the perfect saturnalia of
extravaganza and orgy of spending
of spending like a drunken sailor"
which encourage and make possible
the unconscionable gouger and ham,
per the work of those trying to COM
bat such conditions.
at is as much the duty of the pa
triotic American to economize as il
was when our boys were over there

there Immediately passed into view
one of the grandest spectacles ever
witnessed in Tennessee. Five thou
sand three hundred school children,
by actual count, from little tots in the
primary department to college Sc
niors, marched four abreast in two
formations-one passing up Main
street on one side and the other
marching down on the other side, all
at the same time, so that each school
was permitted to see the formation
of the other, and the whole process
sion so rapid and dazzling that the
eve of the bystander was hardly able
to take it all in.
The parade was led by the faculty
of Tusculum College in their college
robes. Some of these were old gray
haired men, who can look back on
long years of unbroken service to the
childhood of the State; and as they
marched the smiles on their lined
features showed that their hearts
were filled again with the joys OF
youth.
The Tusculum faculty was followed
by the student body of the college tc
the number of 200. Next came the
various high schools and the gram
mar schools of the county, singing
and yelling and waving pennants.
Many banners were noted addressed
to the county court begging for more
school money, longer school term
better buildings and better opportu
mites for the children.
Everybody was gay and happy, anS
there were several touches Of humor
