MS Oil? EXECUTED
10 REBELS WITHOUT
WORLDI KND_WING IT?
Letter From Mexico to Atlan
tian. Dated Last Sunday,
Says “The Ten Principal
Leaders Were Executed”
Have ten of the principals of tne
Mexican revolution been executed in
Mexico City without the rest of the
world knowing anything about it?
Certainly none of the press dispatches,
all censored, that have come out of
Mexico since the recent uprising' broke
loose, have contained any account of
such an execution.
But here comes a letter from Mexico,
to an Atlanta man. stating that such is
a fact—stating it casually, as though as
suming that it is not such startling
news as it proves to be.
It may change the whole complexion
of the situation. It may mean, as the
writer says it does, that President Por
firio Diax has already suppressed the
revolution and gotten rid of the lead
ers. That the revolution is suppressed,
has been the claim of all the censored
news for some days past. But in none
of it has the execution of ten leaders
of that revolution been told.
G. C. Beck, of the Troy Steam laundry
tn Atlanta, is the recipient of the let
ter. The Journal handles the original
epistle for the writing of these lines.
But the name of the man who signs
th eletter, nor even the city he wrote
it from, could not wisely be published.
Not as long as he remains in Mexico.
He might hear from It in a disagreable
way. .
HERE IS THE LETTER.
Here is the letter, dated November 20:
"Newspaper reports may worry you.
so Just a line of reassurance.
"The so-called anti-American feeling
and demonstrations, as we all knew,
simply cloaked a very weak and foolish
attempt to first discredit and then over- 1
throw the Diaz administration.
"The matter has been forcibly and
more than promptly met with federal
troops, and with the execution in Mex
ico City this morning of the ten prin
cipal leaders. I feel that it is all over.
"We have seen nor heard personally
nothing of it all. My men have been
regularly at work underground and not
even a case of disrespect.
"8. is here until her ship sails Decem
ber L from Veracruz, and should I be
mistaken about the disorder being ended
Carrie and the boys will sail when she
does.”
The fact that the letter is written
from another city than the capital may
be taken as a qualification of the ref
erence to the execution of the “ten prin
cipal leaders" in Mexico City the morn
ing the letter was written—which was
last Sunday. Americans who have been
in Mexico know how tight all news is.
The writer’s own doubt, shown in the
letter in these words, "should I be mis
taken about the disorder being ended.”
may also be considered as another qual
ification of the general conclusion.
MANY GEORGIANS IN MEXICO.
This news, however, will be at least
so much reassurance for the anxious
Atlantlans and Georgians who have
close relatives in Mexico. There are many
Georgians down in that country, and
many Atlantlans.. the majority of whom
are interested in mines or connected
with their management. Georgians who
make their home here own a great
deal of mining stock, particularly in El
’.Socorro mine, near Oaxaca in which
Judge L. Morris. ’of Marietta, is inter
ested; also J. N. McEachern, member
of the police board of Atlanta, and for
mer council member. Judge Morris has
a brother in Oaxaca, who was a rail
road man for a number of years, but
for some time past has been In charge
of the Socorro mine. Dr. George Brown,
of Atlanta, has a son in charge of an
other mine down there. Warren Neel,
formerly of Atlanta, son of Professor
Neel. Cf the Gordon institute. Is in the
railroad construction business in Mexico
City. Mexico, in short, is full of Amer
icans, and among their number are very
many Georgians and Atlantlans whose
homefolks have been concerned for their
safety at the hands of the revolutionist*.

Making Bibles
Recent data compiled by the publishing
trade shows that there are more copies
of the Bible being sold and distributed
this year than any other of the hundred
"best sellers." This is due largely to
the activities of the world's Bible socie
ties. The methods of utilizing every pos
sible avenue of Bible distribution has
been so marked that the marquis of
North Hampton predicted last summer
at an international Bible conference that
the aeroplane would soon be used in the
distribution of the Good Book. The Amer
ican Bible society first utilized the au
tomobile for Bible distribution. The suc
cessful work of Colporteur Fow and his
wife In distributing Bibles through rural
California from an automobile, demon
strated the adaptability of this machine
for the purpose. The motorcycle is used
extensively both in America and England
for the same purpose.
The Bible societies of the world are
united in their efforts to place a copy
of the Bible in the native tongue with
in the reach of every man. woman and
child upon earth, and philanthropists and
churches are joining hands in this great
movement. At every summer resort,
pleasure park or town in the Christian
world a colporteur is likely to be found
who in many cases displays remarkable
versatility in attracting attention to his
wares. In heathen countries the work
of the Bible distributor is being pushed
with even greater vigor, although vary
ing methods are employed.
• • r
Every Christian country has its own
national organization for Bible production
and distribution, but the great bulk of
the work is carried on by the American
and British Foreign Bible societies.
These two great English-speaking or
ganizations control large publishing
plants in many places and print Bibles
in every language of Europe, in addition,
to the various other tongues into which
the Bible has been, or is being, trans
lated.
• We
During the past two years special at
tention has been called to the enormous
increase in the contributions to the
American Bible society through the
beneficence of Mrs. Russell Sage who
gave half a million dollars on condition
that the society raise an equal sum for
a perpetual endowment fund. The com
mittee in charge of the endowment fund
campaign completed their task last June,
having secured contributions amounting
to an average of >I.OOO a day throughout
the campaign which lasted for over a
year Most of this amount was from
small contributors In America and for
eign lands reached by the society's
work.
• • •
A conservative estimate places the re
sources of the American society at $5.-
000.000 including all endowments and
trusts and the publishing plants in
America and in foreign countries. The
endowments and trusts are Invested to
yield the largest possible returns. Be
sides the regular income from these,
the work of the society is supported by
the donations, which are increasing lib
erally each year and which are imme
diately utilized. The plans for the work
of the coming year call for 11,000,000. To
secure this sum the committee will en
deavor to keep the dally contributions up
to the mark reached during the endow
ment campaign. This great annual ex
penditure will he required to carry out
the present plans for Bible publication.
Including translation and revision, dis
tribution, traveling and emergency ex
penses. The resources of the British Bi
ble society are more than double those
of the American. In addition to its heavy
endowments, the organization is well
supported by the Established church,
while very liberal private donations are
being received each year. Much of the
work of the British Bible society is done
in India, where the numerous dialects
spoken require a large number of trans
lations in order that every British sub
ject In that land may possess a copy
of the Scripture in his native tongue.

The work of translating the Scriptures
Is recognized as important to world's
development from an intellectual. as well
as a spiritual standpoint. Putting a Bible
into a language possessing neither a lexi
con nor a grammar is a distinct literary
achievement, because it at once gives
that language the foundation of a na
tional literature. In most cases the
translation of the Bible Into an illiterate j
language speedily results in the opening,
of a public school. Many of the countries
visited by missionaries have no written
language. Their vocal communication
seems to consist of beast-like grunts.
Reducing these sounds to words and re
producing them in printed form immedi
ately gives a higher tone of communi
cation which cannot but advance the in
telligence of the people receiving it. A
keen ear and a thorough acquaintance
with the people are prime essen
tials for translating the Scriptures
into unwritten languages. The pa-
THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GEORGIA. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1910.
tient perseverence required to re
duce a dialect to printed page could only
belong to one whose Ingenuity is inspired
by zealous devotion. For this reason
the work of translating the Bible into
heathen languages is chiefly performed
by missionaries, who, in addition to their
other labors, generally undertake volun
tarily this arduous task. Their work is
carefully revised by experts employed for
that purpose at the main publishing
houses. The credit for the real work of
the translation, however, must be al
most without exception awarded to mis
sionaries. Usually the New Testament,
psalms or some other portion is publish
ed first, and later the whole Bible. For
merly most of the printing was done in
New York or London. Now great modern
publishing plants are sustained exclusive
ly for Bible productions in Calcutta, Con
stantinople, Tokyo, Shanghai and Vienna,
with many smaller printing houses tn
places of sufficient commercial develop
ment.
• • g.
The wonderful process of modern
mechanism is nowhere more apparent
than in the Bible publishing industry. A
demonstration of this was the publication
of the Caxton Memorial Bible as a part
of the memorial exercises held in Eng
land a few- years ago in honor of Caxton,
the first English printer. This special
edition was printed at the University
Press, Cambridge, and bound in London,
a distance of 63 miles. The finished vol
umes of the edition were in the hands of
the recipients within 16 hours after the
first portion of the copy was given to the
printer. This remarkable feat of publi
cation was deemed a fitting memorial to
the man who so painstakingly set type
for the first Bible published in England.
A specimen of the Caxton Memorial
edition now rests tn the British museum
beside a copy of that first English Bible
published in 1450 Both were printed
from metal type set by hand, as were all
the earlier Bibles. But here the resem
blance in the process of publication
ceases. The process of plate-making has
now almost entirely superseded the old
fashioned type in Bible publication. This
reduction of labor has reduced the cost
of production to a minimum and Bibles
are correspondingly low-priced. Last
year the American Bible society was able
to reduce the price of a cloth-bound Tes
tament from 6 to 5 cents a copy and to
sell a complete Bible for 17 cents. The
British society furnish a Testament for
"tuppence” and a Bible for sixpence.
• • •
While the majority of the Bibles of the
world are produced by the American and
British societies there are numerous
other publishers both In America and
Europe engaged exclusively in Bible pro-
These furnish fine books for
the subscription trade for gifts and spe
cial usage. The Bible societies issue only
the scriptures. All teacher’s Bibles and
other Issues In which maps, history and
material useful to the student are com
bined with the Bible, are issued by pri
vate publishers. Some of these have built
up enormous trades, especially in illus
trated Bibles which might be said to form
a class by themselves. During the past
year in America Bibles have been print
ed in 71 languages. In some of these
only a single volume has been Issued,
but the plates are ready to supply any
reasonable demand on short notice. The
British and American societies each pub
lish Bibles in quite a number of languages
which the other does not duplicate. Thus
the expense of trafi6latlon and revision
in any language is made as broadly
useful as possible.
• • •
During the past year the American
Bible society issued 2,826.831 volumes and
the British society 6,620,024, while Ger
many, Russia, France and the other Eu
ropean countries combined report the is
suance of 3,381,000. In addition to these
are the Bibles issued by private pub
lishers in the various countries, which
are said to amount to over 3,0000.000. This
places the total number of Bibles issued
during the year 1910 at nearly 15.000,000
volumes, or one copy for every 100 per
sons on the globe.

■ FARCE" CHARGE IS

WEEVIL CONFEREES
Atlanta Chamber of Com
merce Issues Statement Re
plying to 'lmputation That
Workers Were “Frozen Out”
Denying; in toto every imputation
made against either the program or con
duct of the recent boll weevil congress
in Atlanta, a statement given out for
publication from the Atlanta Chamber
of Commerce, and reproduced herewith,
sets forth the reverse of a view stated
in The Journal yesetrday afternoon.
In the story yesterday afternoon it
was shown that agricultural department
and entomological department officers of
Gsorgia and others associated with them,
are dissatisfied with the recognition giv
en them by the recent conference: and
that their dissatisfaction is going to
take shape in a conference of farmers
called to meet in some other city of
Georgia soon.
The statement given out by the At
lanta Chamber of Commerce claims
that the idea of a boll weevil congress
originated in that body. It says that the
chamber paid the printing bill of the
Georgia agricultural department for bul
letins issued by that department on the
congress. It says that Commissioner
Hudson, head of the department in
Georgia, designated two other state
commissioners for the program and
himself spoke when one of them was
prevented from attending. It says thai
Entomologist Worsham accepted and
filled an engagement on the program.
He designated two other entomologists
for Invitations, and one of them ac
cepted, and spoke on the program. Dr.
A. M. Soule, president of the state agri
cultural college; Prof. R. J. H. DeLoach,
of the faculty of the same college, and
W. L. Peok, vice president of the Farm
ers’ union, were among the first Invited
to speak, and they did speak, says the
statement. J. J. Conner, president of
the Georgia Agricultural society, was
invited and spoke. Experts named by
the United States department of agricul
ture were invited end spoke, as follows:
Dr. Seaman A. Knapp, of the bureau of
plant industry; W. F. Proctor, state
agent of the United States farm dem
onstration work, and G. W. Orms, an
other agent of the same service. These,
with E. Gentry, of Jonesboro, state
agent of the same service in Georgia,
made at least four practical farmers,
says the statement, "who have been en
gaged in the fight In the west since
1904.”
"The committee was aware,” says the
statement, "when It made the program.”
of a difference in opinion between ento
mologists and farm demonstration men.
“We thought the wise and proper thing
to do was to put them both on the pro
gram and let them speak for themselves.
This we did, and it was for each man'to
make his own case and bis own Impres
sion on the audience.”
Following is the statement, verbatim:
TAKE ISSUE WITH CRITICS
"The attention of F. J. Paxon, pres
ident; H. G. Hastings, chairman of the
boll weevil committee, and W. G. Coop
er, secretary of the Atlanta Chamber of
Commerce was called to articles in the
afternoon papers, saying that certain
state officials had not been treated with
proper courtesy in arranging the pro
gram for the boll weevil conference. Hon.
T. G. Hudson, cemmjesioner of agricul
ture, and Mr. E. state en
tomologist, are quoted as saying that
the conference was a farce and no good
will come of it. They are also quoted
as saying that the heads of the Georgia
department of agriculture and the Geor
gia state entomologist and the Farm
ers' union were snubbed and Insulted by
those who had the proceedings in charge.
"It is hard to believe that these gen
tlemen made any such statements for the
facts are ' very different.
“The idea of a boll weevil conference
originated in the chamber of commerce
committee on agriculture several months
ago. The first suggestion came from
Dr. H. E. Stockbridge, editor of the
Southern Rurallst. It was cordially
seconded by Mr. Hastings, Who had
spent several summers in Texas, study
ing boll weevil conditions.
“Before a program was made, Hon.
R. F. Wright, assistant commissioner
of agriculture, and Mr. E. L. Worsham,
state entomologist, were present at one
of the meetings of the committee. The
state department of agriculture was re
quested to send out a special bulletin
to be prepared by the state entomologist.

KNIGHT-YANCEY CO. CAUSE
LOSS OF A MILLION
WASHINGTON, Nov. -o. —Comment-
ing on the arrest yesterday by postof
fice inspectors of John W. Knight, se
nior member of the cotton brokerage
firm of Knight, Yancey & Co., Decatur,
Ala., Postmaster General Hitchcock to
day gave out a statement in which he
says that the operations of this con
cern through the alleged fraudulent use
or the malls would doubtless exceed a
million dollars.
The alleged fraud was committed, he
says, by use of bogus bills of lading
covering .ictitious shipments. Mr.
Hitchcock asserts that, by making false
reports of shipments to insurance com-1
panies, certificates of insurance were
procured covering both railway and ma
rine risks. These genuine insurance
certificates were accepted as indicating
the honesty of the shipments, and the
bills of lading thus accompanied were
negotiated by note brokers, who procur
ed payment from tne foreign importers
in advance of delivery.
It is chiefly against these foreign
