Woman Saved From
Gallows By New
Trial
BY international News Service.

CENTREVILLE, Ala, March
24.-An eleventh-hour decision
by the supreme court to grant a
new trial saved Nellie Bestor,
negro woman, from the gallows
here today.
The woman, sentenced to death
for the alleged murder of her
husband a few weeks ago, was
scheduled to hang this morning,
and Sheriff Wood had made all
preparations for the execution.
Notice of the decision to give
the woman a new hearing was
received last night by the sheriff
and Frank Hand, attorney for the
woman.
According to testimony intro
duced at the woman's trial. she
attacked her husband, striking
him with an axe. She then at
tempted to dispose of the body
by concealing it in a stream
nearby, according to evidence
presented.
The eyes of the State were
turned on the subsequent events
following the trial because the
death penalty has not been i'm
posed on a woman ih Alabama
since reconstruction days.

BY PHILIP FRANCIS.

Forty-five years ago Cecil
Rhodes wrote down the program
of British imperialism which il be-
ing followed out by Balfour, aided
by Hughes and Root and every
Senator who casts his vote in favor
of this treaty of alliance.
In the first will of RHODES, dated
September 10. 1877. he provided an
enormous trust fund which he di.
rected to be used as follows:
ITO and for the establishment,
promotion. and development of a
SECRET SOCIETY, the true aim
OF which and object whereof shall
be the extension OF British rule
throughout the world, the perfect
ing of a system of emigration from
the United Kingdom and Of colo
nization by British subjects OF all
lands where the means OF livelihood
are attainaple by energy, labor, and
enterprise. and especially the &C.

entire continent of Africa, the

Forty-five years Is a short period
in the history of nations-a short
span. indeed. Yet see how far the
persistent skill, cunning, blandish-
ment, and armed aggressions of
British diplomacy already have
carried this imperialistic program
toward completion.
The "entire continent" of Afri-

but nearly all of II is, and the

The Holy Land, the Valley Of

"Such a sanction will not only

MATE RECOVERY OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF
THE BRITISH EMPIRE"
For that is exactly what every
Senator will vote for who votes
for this treaty Of alliance with
England.
Cecil Rhodes was a dreamer, but
he was no idle dreamer. He MT
only saw visions of empire for
Britain, but he saw the means
whereby his visions could be made
realities. He had no scruples. His
dream was TO paint the map Of
the world with the red of England.
and whether il would be necessary
to use fraud or force mattered not
at ali to him.
And exactly as Cecil Rhodes was,
so Balfour Is. and so every other
British leader and British diplo-
matist Is.
Against such diplomatists as
those Of England, amateurs like
Harding and Hughes and Lodge
are but clay in the hands Of the
potter.
This alliance into which the su.
perior cunning of British diplo.
macy has inveigled these repre-
sentatives OF ours is the first long
step toward Rhodes dream OF the
ultimate recovery of the United
States as an integral part Of the
British Empire"
The next steps will need less

rapidly.

speaking peoples or In some other
high-sounding title with which to
camouflage the surrender Of our
sovereignty into the hands Of an
imperil council.
The enormous triumph of British
diplomacy will be in persuading our
Government and people to take this
first step. All the rest will be only
matters of time, persuasion, ca
jolery, intrigue, and custom.
Once our people have become
habituated to this thought of an
Anglo-American alliance, it will be
easy to habituate them to the
thought of an Anglo-American
union-and an Anglo-American
union will mean, and can ,nly
mean, the accomplishment Of the
dream of Rhodes, the accomplish

how important a link they are in
the chains Of British and japanese
imperialism.
When the treaty fight began,
some Of the Senators who now ex-

treaty declared their acceptance of
the naval treaties. They have been
weakening. They have discovered
the same strain Of betrayal of the
United States between the lines of
the naval treaties which they found
between the paragraphs Of the
four.power compact.
