A MOVE TO CONSOLIDATE
CUTHBERT'S NEWSPAPERS
Meeting Is Held to Consider Matter.
A Committee Appointed.

The last issue of the Cuthbert Lib
eral- Enterprise contained this report
of a movement to consolidate the two
newspapers Of that town:
"On Monday evening several bus
mess men of Cuthbert and Shellman
met in the office of Randolph County
Advertising Club to talk about the
consolidation of Cuthbert's two pa
pers, The Leader and The Liberal
Enterprise. Mr.. Jesse Mercer, OF At
lanta, an old newspaper man, was
asked to state the object of the meet
ing, which he did in a short talk, stat
ing that he believed the consolidation
of the two offices, with the addition
of typesetting machine, would give
Cuthbert and this section a better
paper, when properly worked, than 1t
has ever had. He believes the field is
fine one for progressive paper.
Several others made talks, expressing
the belief that it would be a good
move. AS a result of the meeting. a
committee was appointed to confer
with other citizens in the county and
invite them to be present at a meeting
to be held in Cuthbert next tuesday
night. at which time the plan will be
thoroughly outlined as to the torma-
ton of a stock company"

EMMA GOLDMAN IN
VIGOROUS PROTEST
RADICAL LEADER LAUNCHES
TRADE AGAINST PRISONS.
SUICIDE ONLY WAY OUT.

Emma Goldman, notorious radical,
who was deported from the United
States and landed in Russia, has made
a fiery protest against the treatment
accorded political prisoners in Russia.
Emma, who could not abide by
Russia's type of socialism, is now in
Berlin. She declares the world can no
longer remain indifferent to the hor-
rors of soviet prisons.
Goldman made her appeal following
the receipt of letter from friends in
Russia informing her of unbearable
conditions under which ''politicals"
are compelled to live
These prison conditions are such
that they compel many prisoners to
seek release through suicide. A nota-
BILE example of release by suicide was
that of Trutowski, socialist leader.
Justice Is Unknown.
After long confinement Trutowski
tried to end his life by soaking him
self with kerosene and setting fire to
his clothes, according to advices re-
ceived by Goldman.
Trutowski tried suicide in protest
against the refusal of soviet authori-
ties to reveal the cause OF his arrest
or of his being brought to trial The
government feared the political offset
of his presence in Moscow, it is said.
Other information received in Ber-
lin concerning prison conditions in

Georgia Negro Tells of
Conditions In the North
Living Costs Are High. Great Suf-
fering in the Winter.

Ed White, a former ~ ericus ne
gro, has returned to Georgia after a
visit to a number of northern cities.
That the colored people of Georgia
who have been leaving home in recent
months for the east and north are
making a serious mistake and one
that many have realized, is the opin-
ion expressed by Ed, who is now in
the employ of the Bib Company at
Macon.
Ed visited several eastern cities, and
he found by personal investigation
that as many as six colored men are
living in one room in a Philadelphia
boarding house, and that the same
room is doing double, six more men
occupying it in the day time, and all
paving high rent. He was charged 81
Tor the privilege of taking a bath at
this place,
He found that houses that can be
rented in Macon for $40 month
bring as much as $40 and $45 per
month in the east, that provisions OF
all sorts are high and that living. con-
ditions are anything but desirable.
Ed says he does not know what the
colored people are going to do in these
eastern cities this winter He thinks
they will die by the thousands. AS
far as Ed is concerned, he says he
would not live away from Georgia. 1t
is his belief that many of the negroes
will come back home just as soon
as they can save up railroad fare
Other reports Of a like nature have
come back to Georgia, and it is quite
apparent that the negroes who have
left the south have been badly fooled.

purged of his contempt by Judge Lam
dis or the national board.
"The South Georgia League adds a
complication to the case by its en-
ployment of Jackson. Though an in
dependent league, it is regularly or
gained, with definite inter-club
schedule, and with its players under
regular contract. That being the case
the players must play with or against
any player assigned to them by the
magnates, unless they wish to be
charged with the offense of contract
breaking, or lose their means of live
lihood through no fault of their own.
But a test case is almost certain to
crop out from the association of Jack
son with the South Georgia League
players, for which satisfactory solu-
ton must be found by Judge Lands.
"The fault primarily is that of the
South Georgia League magnates, who
sanctioned the foisting of a self-con-
fessed game-thrower by one of its
clubs upon the honest players of the
league. Morally such a proceeding is
indefensible, but even from a business
standpoint it is utterly stupid to put a
convicted and sentenced player into
the league on par with the honest
players, thus not only palliating and
ignoring his crime, but placing him in
position of emulation by young play
ers of possibly loose moral fibre, in
stead of serving as the perpetual
warning example his permanent in
eligibility designed him to be. Alike
from moral and practical standponits
these South Georgia League magnates
are something to marvel at"

Russia confirms the reports by EN-
ma Goldman. Moscow prisons alone
now hold JridFe than $4,000 political
prisoners. " -
Worst of all the prisons is the So
called Lubianka inner prison, where
the guards consist entirely of Let's
and Chinese, who do not speak a
word of Russian.
Inner Jail a Nightmare.
The inner prison. which constitutes
a part of Lubianka jail, now holds
about 1000 human beings, many of
them in solitary confinement. The re-
gine prevailing in this prison is more
rigorous than anywhere else.
Prisoners are not permitted to con-
verse with one another, the punish
ment for infraction of this rule being
confinement in a dark dungeon.
