Secret bucket letter attacks on

wv. E. H. SEARCY, Judge Flint
Superior Court"
Grand Jury Criticises Dorsey.
The Epson county grand jury, in
their presentments last week, declare
that Governor Dorsey has Slandered
his people" in the publication OF his
startling report, which recounted 135
cases of alleged mistreatment of ne
groes ranging from peonage to muir
der. The Guardians OF Liberty OF Ma
con have passed resolution accusing
the governor of "defaming and libel
ing the state of Georgia and her citi-
zens," demanding that he immediate
ly substantiate his charges and threat
ening legal action against him if he
fails to do so.
These are the most recent attacks
upon Governor Dorsey since he made
public his report at the recent meet
ing of the Inter-racial Relations COM
mittee in Atlanta, and which was cir
culated throughout the state with the
approval of a number OF ministers and
citizens.
The section OF the Epson grand
jury presentments referring to the
governor follows:
1--WE have thoroughly investigated
these charges from every source and
standpoint and find them to be utterly
false from beginning to end as far as
| Epson county is concerned, and that
no such conditions exist and have not
existed. Members of this body were
present at the trial of the negro re-
fair trial as could be given anyone
anywhere. We're at loss to know why
the governor of the great state OF
Georgia should wish to SANDER his
people without first ascertaining the
facts and records in the case, which,
as our understanding is, could have
been had from the clerk of the supe-
rior court of Epson country or from
the court OF appeals OF Georgia"
Says Georgia Has Been DETAINED.
The text Of the resolution of the
Macon organization follows:
Whereas, Hugh M. Dorsey has by
publishing and circulating or permit
ting the circulation of the above nam
ed pamphlet, DETAINED and libeled the
state of Georgia and her citizens
therefore, be it
Resolved, That we call on all able
sons of this state to join us in de-
handing that Hugh NJ. Dorsey sub
stantiate his charges at once by issu-
ing a statement setting out all reve-
liant matter and details; and if he fails
to do so, Immediately institute pro.
ceedings against him"

MITCHELL COUNTY
SUES FOR LOSS OF DOG
Animal Killed by Train Is Valued at
One Hundred Dollars.


BROWNSVILLE, Ga.-An inter-
esting case from Mitchell county is
that Of the county of Mitchell against
the Atlantic Coast Line railroad for
$500 damages for the killing of a
hound dog belonging to said county.
1t is said that the dog got on the rail-
road track and as the train was com
ing on the track at the same time the
dog was killed in collision between
him and the engine. The county, it is
said, claims that the engineer OF the
train did not blow the whistle, ring the
bell or stop the train when he saw the
dog coming towards it, and, therefore,
the road is called upon to pay 500,
the sum at which the dog is valued.

WILL THEY EXERT
THEIR POWER?

j Mr.. w A. Lucas who will repre-
League directors tomorrow night in
Richmond when they meet to consid-
er the demand of Portsmouth that the
games won by Wilson from July the
was asked by the Editor of the Times
to give an interview on the subject.
Mr. Lucas said:
what will the League Directors
those games won by Wilson between
July 3rd. the date of the closing of
the first half, and July 23rd, the date
when the Wilson ball team came
within the salary limit as fixed by
the Constitution of the League?
This is somewhat problematical.
Under the Constitution of the League
the only penalty that can be inflicted
for simple violation of the salary
limit is a fine of $4,000. The same
penalty is prescribed in the National
Association Agreement. There is no
provision that a simple violation of
the Salary limit either forfeits a
game or gives the League a right to
throw the games out. OF course, just
as a burglar, in the night time by
the use of explosive force, can open
! and rob safe; So can the Directors
of a League, with the force of a ma
jority, open the percentage column
and throw out games honestly won.
There is not much difference in the
two propositions in good morals. al
though the Criminal Courts will deal
only with the safe burglar and will
have nothing to do with the baseball
burglar.
1t is hoped that the Directors of
the League will not attempt, Satur-
day night, to juggle percentages so
that two Virginia Cities may con-
tend, not for the honor of a. pennant,
for. there would be no honor in a
pennant SO won, but with the idea,
solely of putting money into their
pockets from post series.

drivers of the school trucks have
fa lien into the same habit ,and feels
that the school children should be
taught that they should not be al
lowed to grow up with the feeling
that they have the right to dominate
everything and have their way. He
believes that the principles of de-
mocracy should be taught children
while they are young, that others
have their rights which should be re-
spected, not only on the road but
elsewhere. He believes that a good
place to start is on the road, since if
the drivers Of the school trucks per-
sist in hogging all the road they
might meet some one who is just as
insistent on his rights as they, and
terrible accident would result.
