Judge Maddox Wants
To Hold Two Oifices
Atlanta, Oct. 31.—Judge John
W. Maddvx, of Rome, who was
in Atlanta yesterday, is quoted
as saying that he intends to hold
on both the judgship of the Floyd
county superior court and to the
presidency of the State Mutuai
Life Insurance company. It had
been expected, particularly a
short time ago when the Judge
sat in a case involving insurance
qnestions, that he would feel the
necessity of resigning one or the
other office. |
Judge Maddoxjaas said, however
that he thinks he can retain both
without one conflicting with t! e
other. His view, however, is not
shared entirely by members of
the bar on one hand or by insur
ance men on the other. Repre
sentative men of both professions
for time past have been frank in
their criticism; it is not fair to
the public and not fair to J udg«
‘Maddox himself, they say.
The situation has already been
brought to the attention of the
state insurance commissioner and
to the governor, but it is under
stood that neither official has yet
expressed any opinion on the sub
ject. That the Judge, in justice
to himself, will be forced to re
linquisl one or the other of the
offices, seems to be the general
opinion here. The question has
been raised, indeed, as to wheth
er he can hold them both law
fully. '
In the event Judge Maddox
should prefer to resgn the judg
ship, the most proable applicants
for the bench are Hon. G. R.
Hutchens and G. E. Maddocks,
the son of the present judse. 1
is said that G. E. Maddox woula
stand a very good chance, as he
'managed Governor Brown’s cam
lpaign, and is credited with hav
ing, as well as his father, a strong
influence in the executive office,

~ Becker’s execution will be stay
ed by a notice of appeal, soon to
be filed by bis counsel, which may
require a year to determine.
Becker heard himself condemned
without any show of emotion oth
er than the closing of his eyes and
the compression of his lips,
J. F. Mclntyre. Beckers’ chief
counsel, who suffered a nervous
collapse after the close of the trial
was unable to be in court toaay.
His condition is serious though
not critical. .

Missionary Notes.
The Missionary Study Classes
of the different Wards have each
ben reorsairized and met lact
Monday for the first time. An
enroliment of forty-five names
is very encouraging for a begin
ning, and we believe even great
er interest thun existed last year
will be manifested. ‘‘China’s
New Day’’ is being studied and
is full of material which will en
lighten and arouse interest.
HOME MISSION WEEK.
How about it? Why should
you observe it? Because this
campaign is being conducted un-
Jer the auspices of the Protestant
churchesof America through thi:
combined home mission forces. "
Because Home Mission Week is
.11 attempt to impress upon every
‘man and woman of every church
of every evangelistical denomi
nation in this country the su
nreme importance of saving
America for the kingdom cf God
and to convince them that they
have a distinct personal respon
sibility in the performance of thi:
stupenduous task.
Because the American Home
Mission enterprise is the biggest,
vroadest movemeat in the United
States and stands for the physi
cal, social, intellectual and relig
ious emancipation of all the peo
ple.
Because every Protestant
~hurch in America should become
1 part of what promises to be the
xrcatest movement of the church
of 1912.
BECAUSE the Woman’s Home
Department of the Board of Mis
sions is dependent upon your ir
dividual help in creating interest
in this part of church work. The
great need of twenty thousand
dolars with which to meet pres
ent obligations of our woman’s
work makes it necessary for uni
ted effort and special collectio
must be made a special work of
ilome Mission Week, Nov, 17 ¢+
The present condition of «ffairs
in China makes the proposition
rather a serious one, which en~-
fronts our missionaries, politi
cally, but we are glad to state
that it has not abated the desire
among the natives for the Chris
tian religion. Are we doing our
duty owards China?
Mr. Bramwell Booth announcse
that the Salvation Army is to
place a staff of fifty officers in
China to organize the Army’s op
erations 1n the Middle Kingdom.
The reports from our mission
ary schools ia Brazil, Mexico
land China are indeed very en
lcouragring. Since the opening of
‘the present session all the build
ings are found inadequate, be—{
‘cause of the great increasein the
number of punpils.
May the time speedily come
when these buildings will have
been enlarged and increased in
number sufficiently to accommo
date every native who desires ad
mittance.
Yours fraternally,
MRs. C. O. POWELL,
Superintendent Press Work.
