before he ehot White down;
One of thee* acta waa when Harry
Thaw married Evelyn Neablt. On that

document la In the hand* of hla Jury,
making aa eloquent a plea In hla behalf

And these are proofs that must atand.
Whatever Jerome may now prove can
only be things against Evelyn Neablt
Thaw.
It* will be hard for the Jury to believe
that Thaw suffered the "brain storm"
that the alienists declare be did that
night when he suddenly left his wife
and friends to kill White.
Moreover. Jerome went treading on
dangerous ground when ne seemingly
tried to make Thaw’* expert* admit
that Thaw, aa he alts on trial for hla
life, la a maniac. Palpably hla ques

And It la equally true that when

But If the case goes to th* Jury It Is
nothing to the Jury whether Thaw la

That will not be the question for them
at all. The only question they will
have to anower la "Woo Thaw Insane

ALTERNATION Of CIRCUITS

BYSOVTHGEORGIALA WhER
To the Editor of THe Georgian:
Aa • constant reader of your paper,
and convtncsd that old Georgia, her
good name and tame, Is the Iddl of

Were evldence^-nay. proof—wanted,'
the writer would merely mention th*
unprecedented victory of ouf greatest
clttsen and governor-elect, Hoke Smith,
over all corporation and political com
binations. A year or so ago I wrote a
paper upon judicial reform, so far a*
compelling our auperlor rourt Judges to
alternate, that met with so much favor
with our people that aonte of our
Judges thought It necessary to meet It
Into Judicial district*, and thus rest
alternation to those districts. For some
reason legislation miscarried and The
evil continues.

say. and a correction ought to he made.-
The system is now *
division of the

that In one circuit there 1s an Im

becomes more skilled as a farmer,

Who doubts the truth of this asser

Then we find that there la an evil

A lew should be passed requiring al
