JUDGE ID. G. RICHARDSON'S
DECLARATION

Judge ID. G. Richardson, the alb Q
presiding jurist over the Hastings
Court Of this city and one of the
most popular men in this munlcipaI-
ity today was tho orator at the cXer-
ciScs which took place in hollywood
Cemetery Memorial Day. lie served III
the Confederate Army and after read
ing his eloquent historical address
we felt rs though the abolitionist
movement in Massachusetts began in
Virginia. Be that as it may, he has
searched the archives of history amt
has brought forth some very interest
ing information
lilo is Of the opinion that under
the reserved rights of States, Virgin
i'll had a right to seccde from the
Union. We regret that he did not pun
sue the discussion further and say
whether or not he was of the opinion,
that she still has that right. On that
phase OF the subject, SO far as the
newspaper report of his utterancGs
is concerned, he is Silent. lie Is quot
cd as follows:
In support Of his ascertain that
the Southern soldier did not fight for
the perpetuation OF slavery Judge Rich
ardson referred to the historical works
OF Munford, a recognized authority,
showing that slavery was forced upon
Virginia. The House OF Burgesses 70
peated'y protested against the impor
tation Of slaves and repeatedly pass
cd laws to prohibit 1t, but all sucl,
laws were vetoed by tho King.
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1921-06-04
And gain:

In 177G the first General Assembly
OF Virginia enacted a law prohibiting
the importation Of slaves, which way
the first antislavery law enacted in
the history Of tho civilized world 1t
was flagrantly violated by the ship
owning residents Of the New Eng
land States. Virginia, time and time
again, made her voice heard against
slavery. The wisest and best minds in
the Commonwealth earnestly desired
to be relieved OF the incubus OF slav-
cry and hundreds Of the States most
eminent sons never owned slaves
thousands OF slaves were set free
long before the voice of the abolition
lists was heard in the North.
What Judge Richardson says Is q
matter Of history and While he is eIo
qucnt in his declaration concerning,
the hundreds, who never owned slav-
es, he is silent concerning the tens of
thousands, who did own them. 1t has
been repeatedly charged that New
England's antipathy to the slave-ho,d
ing business was because it was n ot
profitable. Judge Richardson makes
a further statement, which is OF more
interest and which seems to embrace
tho thought and wishes of the MAJOR
ty of the people of this grand Old
commonwealth. He IS quoted as f1I.
lows.
Abiding to the conduct and teach
ing of the Abolition party of the
North, its thwarting OF Virginia's de-
signs in working out the gradual
emancipation of the Negro, and the
election of 1860 Judge Richardson
said:
"ln 1860 a sectional candidate was
elected President, whose views on the
slavery question were well-known 10
the people of the country. 1t is true
that MIR. Lincoln, in his first inaugur
al address, said: 4 have no purpose,
directly or indirectly, to interfere with
the institution Of slavery in the States
where it exists. l believe that ! have
no lawful right to do so and I have
no intention to do So"
There can be no denial that Abfa.
ham Lincoln was sectional candidate
for the presidency, just as Jefferson
Davis was a sectional candidate, but
his open declaration should have becn
accepted at its face value. He subse.
quently proved that he had the man
mood and the backbone to carry out
his prc-elcction pledges. T2 wos on.

Alleged Con Men
Held in Default
OF $4,000 Bond

Bonds of $4,000 each have been
fixed by Solicitor General John A.
Boykin for J. w. Mooney, r. J. Red"
Wilson and John A. Alexander, al
legged con men, who were brought to
this city Wednesday afternoon from
men Marvin Baker and Deputy Sher-
iff James E. White The three men
were taken to the Tower Immediately
upon their arrival and are being held
in default of bail.
Quick action was necessary in Or
der to get the three men to Allan
ia, according to the officers, as
friends of the trio were said to be
working to prevent them being
brought here.
The three men were arrested, to-
gether with William Fletcher, Wal
ter Chambers and George w. Will
liams, by the Memphis police sew
eral days ago. All six men are said
to have been indicted by the grand
jury here during its investigation of
gambling, horse racing, wire tapping
and swindling, and as soon as their
arrest was heard of by Solicitor Boy
kin steps were made to have them
brought to this city. Officers Baker
and White, together with Special IN
vestigator Plennie Minor, Of the So
licitor generals department, went to
Memphis armed with extradition pa
pers, to bring the sextet here, but
on arrival there they were blocked
by habeas corpus proceedings taken
out for Fletcher, Chambers and Will
liams.
The governor of Tennessee having
honored the extradition papers, Off
GERS Baker and White took the other
three men and made a hurried trip
to Atlanta before writs of habeas
corpus could be secured for the pris-
oners by their friends. Officer Mi
ner remained in Memphis and will
make special efforts to get the other
three men.
The grand jury met Wednesday aft

transacted. 1t is probable that the

will not be resumed before the first
of next week. In the meantime So

Wife of Weiner Vender
Declines to Smile as
Business Drawing Card

Many form of advertising and
schemes to attract customers are
employed by merchants with good re.
suits, but the plan of j. J. Ma!oof
did not materialize when he failed
to get his wife's consent to pose as
a drawing card for wiener lovers.
Maloof, according to his eighteen
year-old wife, decided to open a
wiener stand on Decatur street, ana
in order to draw customers to his
place of business he requested his
wife to wait on trade and smile at
the prospective buyers. The plan
did not appeal to the girl and she OBJ
jected When he insisted, she says,
She left him and sought other en-
ployment where smiles were not in
cluded as a part of her duties.
Thursday morning the young woman
appealed to the court to restrain
her husband from interfering with
her, claiming that he had caused her
to lose several positions by hound
ing her. She was directed to an at
torney.
Mrs. Mabel Maloof. the girl wife,
said she was induced to wed J. j..
Maloof at Trinidad, Colorado, by her
relatives, though she said she did
not desire 20 marry man she did
not like. The wedding took place
in June of last year and shortly aft

her to Atlanta where his plan to

formulated. The couple lived to-

TO ASK TARIFF
TOSTOP FLOW OF
CANADIANWHEAT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13-To stop
enormous importations of Canadian
wheat" Senator McCumber Republic
an, North Dakota, announced today
that he would ask for a tariff of
probably 80 cents a bushel on wheat
to be included in the Fordney emer-
gency tariff bill, instead of the duty
of 80 cents carried by the measure
as it passed the house.
The senator's announcement was
made at hearings on the Fordney
measure before the senate finance
committee. He charged that Ameri-
can markets had been glutted by the
Canadian wheat and said that as
there remained more than 10000
900 bushels of Canadian wheat for
export he feared ruin of the Ameri-
can wheat farmer considering the
difference in the exchange rates be-
tween the two countries.
Senator McCumber said he did not
believe IAN import duty of fifty cents
bushel would increase the costs of
loaf Of bread one iota."
