are able to meet the situation them selves"
 An appraisement of the part law. yers have taken in the development of American institutions was made by Brough, in an address before the Kansas City Bar association.
 "l am reminded that 14 of the first IS presidents of the United States were lawyers" said the gov ernor, "and that since the civil war every president save one has been a lawyer and that the present chief executive in his early career practiced law in Atlanta, Ga.
 "The lawyer came into being be- cause society required a spokesman who could give expression to the so- cial order which characterized civili- zation as distinct from the chaos that characterized barbarism.
 "rhe issues of bolshevism and an archism versus one hundred per ceny Americanism have become acute There is great disposition on the part of the individual, growing out of social unrest and the enactment of federal and state statutes which restrain personal liberties, to disre- gard the majesty of the law"
 Governor Brough condemned alike the combinations of capital and capi- tai that oppress the profiteer, and the combinations of labor that are willing to sacrifice suffering hu manity that the ends of radical un- ionism may be attained"

SPANIEL FINALLY CLEARED OF CHARGE
 OF KILLING BUTLER
Jury Holds Previous Acquit. tai Frees Hun of Other
 Charge

Brownwood, Texas, Jan. 17.-Three and half years under the cloud of murder charge, Harry J. Spanell, former Texas music teacher, was free tonight by action of district court jury.
 His third trial in connection with the shooting to death of his wife, Mrs. Crystal Spanell, and Col. M. c. Butler, at Alpine, Texas, July 20, 1916, ended late today in his ac- quittal.
 Spanell was not in the court room when the jury announced it's verdict at 2:30 p. m., after two hours delib- eration. The many spectators pres ent made no demonstration. Later, Spanell refused to receive newspaper men.
 "I'm glad it's all over," was the only comment of Mrs. Butler, widow of Colonel Butler.
 Though on trial for staying Col onel Butler, technically the jury did not pass on his guilt or innocence ol lHlS cHdfge, put sustained ms plea that acquittal three years ago at his first trial on the charge of murder ing his wife, had in effect cleared him of Buffers murder.
 Failure of the trial court in the second trial to submit to the jury this plea of former jeopardy presep ted by the defense, caused the court of appeals to order new trial, set ting aside Spanell's conviction and five year prison sentence for staying Butler.
 The third trial started January 5, and testimony presented was large ly repetition of that introduced at the first two trials. Arguments of counsel for the defense, however. bore largely on the former jeopardy plea.
 Colonel Butler and Mrs. Spanell were killed while on an automobile ride with MT. .Spanell in the evening. Spanell accused the army officer of being unduly attentive to Mrs. Spanell.

DEMOCRATS NOT 70 CATER 10 WISH OF
 GROUPS N PARTY
Smaller Interests Must be Sac rificed, Says Chair
 man

New York, Jan. 1.-The democratic party will conduct its presidential campaign without regard to group interests. Homer S. Cummings, chairman of the democratic national committee declared today. MT. Cummings who was here to attend d meeting of the committee on ar engagements for the San Francisco convention, made this statement when asked whether the party in- tended to undertake any propaganda to overcome the reported defection of certain Irish and other clements opposed to ratification of the peace treaty in it's present form.
 "We are going to consider the treaty and other issues as Ameri- cans" asserted MT. Cummings. M am unalterably opposed to considering this question in any other way. Per sonally, l believe the radical objec- tions to the peace treaty are more noise than anything else. Those who are shouting the loudest haven't been strong for us anyway"
 MT. Cummings called attention to the fact that the national commit tee had endorsed the peace treaty as submitted by the president and was standing pat on that issue. Those who believed that the treaty was inimical to the political aspira- tions of the Irish people were in the wrong, he said. The treaty and the league of nations, he declared, would be a real benefit to all the small nations of the world.
 Chairman Cummings announced that so many misstatements had been made concerning the democratic cam- paign for funds that he would issue a formal statement within a few days.
 q feel that the chairman of the respective national committees, should not enter into personal con troversy," he said, "but the criticism against us has become almost libel ous and I feel compelled to issue a formal reply and make our position clear"
