HINTON CASE
Attorney for Defendant Says That
There was no Element of Man.
slaughter in Testimony
Against Colored Boy.

There was no evidence of viola
ton Of the city ordinances and no ele-
ment of manslaughter in the testi-
mony against George Hinton" taxi
cab driver who was acquitted by a
jury in the district court of the
charge of manslaughter, night before
last, according to F. M. Ballinger,
Hinton's attorney.
Besides these facts, Mr.. Ballinger
pointed out that some of the late
Captain Taber's friends were on the
jury and that T. P. Breheny, the
foreman, was a warm personal friend
of the man for whose injuries and
death Hinton was on trial.
Hinton's story was that the motor
man started to close the door, that
the step had been raised, and that
he thought the car was going o
start. This was ccrroborated by wit
nesses, and was one thing which
caused the jury to clear him. Hinton
said that he did everything humanity
possible to avoid hitting the man who
suddenly doomed up in his path, as
he started his taxi, even to swerving
into the street car. Evidence for the
defense showed that he was going at
not more than ten miles an hour and
that his victim was dragged rather
than thrown, as had been claimed.
at is doubtful if Hinton could have
been convicted on any violation OF
motor traffic laws, and certainly
there was no element Of manslaughter
in the testimony" his attorney said
today.

To Relieve Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness
And Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard
of hearing and have head noises will
be glad to know that this distressing
affliction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medl-
cine that in many instances mas
effected complete relief after other
have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore, If you
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness,
cut out this formula and hand it 70
them and you may have been the
means of saving some poor sufferer
perhaps from total deafness. The
prescription can be prepared at home
and is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist l OF.
Parmint Double Strength). Take
this home and add to it II pint Of
hot water and a little granulatcd
sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one
tablespoonful four times a day
Parmint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the
inflammation and swelling in the
Eustaclian Tubes, and thus TO
euualize the air pressure on the
drum. but to correct any excess Of
secretions in the middle ear, and the
results it gives are nearly always
quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form. or distressing rumblinc.

give this recipe a trial.

is very radical. 1t does not follow Com

more strongly than Gompers does. And
there has reen one little recent sign
here of union labor in politics which
Michigan has remarked.
The union leaders here tried to de-
liver their followers to the Farmer Labor
party, the new party set up in Chicago
during July, of which Christensen, OF
Utah, is the presidential candidate.
Judge Jeffries, union labor lawyer, is
the Farmer Labor candidate for govern
or Of Michigan. He is well and favorably
known to labor. The union leaders here
tried to deliver their votes to him. IL
the recent state primaries, Judge Jeffries
received about 1000 votes for the gov
ernorship nomination. This does moi
prove much. But it shows that ever
radical union labor trained for Ions

not completely off the reservation.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-One small priest
with a smile and the word "sanctuary"
on his lips did more than squads Of
police last night in preventing the
threatened lynching of three negroes
who took refuge in his church.
He is Father Thomas Burke, pastor
of st. Gabriel's Church, in the stock
yards neighborhood.
When Father Burke reached the
church a mob estimated to number
nearly 5000 was packed about the
doors and hundreds more had already
entered in search for the negroes. Fore
ing his way in, the priest shouted:
HWhat is this sacrilege? Who are
the. rowdies that storm the house of
God?"
Some one explained.
"That makes no difference the
nriest cried. This place is a sanctu :
ary. / order every person in the build
ing to leave Immediately, and quietly"
The crowd broke and filed out. The
last man had left when police riot
squad arrived. Taking the police in :
side, Father Burke called to the hid
den negroes to come out.
There was stir and one of the men
stepped out from confessional. A
nile of cassocks in robing room
Yielded a second, and the third appeared
from behind the altar rail. One knelt
and kissed the priests hand as police
spirited them out a side entrance.

of modern industrialism, just as Mil
waukee is high spot politically az a
great center of the foreign vote and az
Indianapolis is another, because In
diana is more politically minded than
any other state.
Take labor-the labor vote is one Of
the great potentialities this time or
some other time. Something is hap
pening to labor, whose political effect
has not been fully considered and can
not perhaps be wholly guessed. The
automobile industry has been checked
by the shortage of credit; dealers cant
| float loans to buy cars. All manufac-
| turers here except Ford and Dodge
have been more or less affected. Re-
ports current elsewhere would lead one
to suppose there has been some laying
off of workmen. The less efficient have
gone. There has been no cutting of
wages, though outside this industry
there have been one or two temporary
shutdowns, which may lead to a re-
hiring of men at lower rates.
Employment Reduced
The extent of this retrenchment may
be gotten from these figures. Members
| OF the Employers Association reporting
to headquarters here employed Mt the
peak in April little less than 200, ,000
workmen. Today the same concerns
employ between 1900 and 5000 less.
The cut in the automobile industry is q
little over 10 per cent.
The effect of all this seems to be O
certain prudence among workmen. II
has not produced anger or radicalism
1t has stopped extravagant buying
promoted saving. In industrial cities
rapid growth of savings deposits i:
reported within recent weeks. Work
men coming in with their money are
asked the reason for the increased de
posits. They say these good times
and high wages may not last forever
it is good thing to put by lt'l
money while they do
Employers report that labor Is NOR
efficient. This is partly due to tn
wedding out of the less efficient ant
partly due to different spirit amonl
those remaining at work.
Now politically the effect of this pru
dence on the part of labor is not eas
to estimate, especially as Detroit is a
open shop town. The automobile indus
try, for example, has only one union
that of the bodymakers. Union labo
