Mr.. Edwards was arrested last week
in Columbia at the request of New
berry authorities who were acting at
the instance of Banna Green. The
case attracted wide attention large
ly because of the determined legal

cas- corpus proceedings were brought
before Judge Whaley on the night
of the arrest, who refused to order
Edwards release, and the case was
taken before supreme court justice
and Edwards was said to be held un-
der a defective warrant and was or
dered released. He had his liberty
for only few minutes, however,

PRINCE CHARGES
JURORS AS TO DUTY
Way to Stop Murders and Violations
of Prohibition Law Is to
Convict

Inc SldLe.
Anderson, May 9-In the May term
of the court of general sessions,
which was convened here this morn
ing, Judge George E. Prince charged
the grand jury in regard to there be-
ing so many murder cases on the
docket in no uncertain terms. He
said:
81 don't know What will become of
our country unless we check the muir
ders. There have been more killings
during the last few years than | can
remember. This must stop. No man
has the right to kill another unless 1t
is necessity. Our jurors are too
ready to accept the defense that IS
put up by defendants in murder cas-
es. When a man is put on trial for
murder he will swear most anything
to get out of it, and the jury takes 1t
like it is the gospel truth. l see there
are number of bills charging MUIR
der this term. This must stop"
The grand jurymen were also told
bv the Judge to do their duty with
out fear and favor in all charges of
violation of the prohibition law. IF
we are going to have dry country
let's have it. When the prohibition
law has been violated, return true
bill. rich or poor, high or low"

BUSINESS MEN MAKE PROTEST
 OVER NEW LAW
Mexicans in Vera Cruz
 Against Giving Workers Share Tn Profits.

MEXICO CITY, Aug, 31.-A law re- gently passed and promulgated in the state of Vera Cruz to permit workmen to share in the profits of any industry in that state. has met with much protest and threat is made that if there is any attempt to carry it into effect a general par alysis of industry will result
 The law calls for the establishment of commission of seven. three em- ployers and three workmen and a chairman selected jointly, in each municipality in the state which, at least once annually, shall call for the books of all industrial concerns and. after a careful audit. shall name the share' ofs,thes laborers. The work men are to receive not less than 10 per cent of the total net profits. No maximum is stated
 f The chairman is to be named by president of the municipality if his selection cannot be mutually agreed upon by the employers and the workrnen. It is pointed out by those who oppose the law that this will of a workman inasmuch as virtually all the presidents of municipalities are laborers.
 The profits to be divided accord ing to the law, will be understood to be the net earnings realized in the business after taking into con sideration the interest and the amor tization of the capital invested The interest will not exceed per cent per annum and the amortization will be adjusted according to the nature of the capital, but must never exceed 10 per cent of the capital of the i'm movable estate"
 One of the principal objections made to the law is that it is retro active t. February j. 1917. An el- aborate system of embargoes and fines is provided in case the em- ployers fail to comply with the or ders of the commission or are dis covered attempting to evade any of it's findings, Goods and properties may be sold at public auction to se- cure payment
 Mexican newspapers almost as q unit are opposed to the law ands are supporting the industries in their attempt to have federal action taken against it. Committees representing various chambers of commerce have conferred with President Obregon, who is nov considering if relief measures are possible. Legislatures tions that similar laws are contem. plated there.
