EMINENT LAWYERS NAMED IN
DEFENSE OF PAUPERS
Are Appointed by the Court and Will
Serve.
New York, Oct. 2.—A New York
’udge has called upon William Horn
wer, Samuel Untermeyer and De
ey Nicoll -to conduct the defence
JJHlrder cases. For their ser
- wiles Tvey will receive S3OO apiece, all
the law allows for defence of respon
dents unable to employ counsel. Their
customary fees would probably amount
to twenty times that amount for the
time required. In their willingness to
serve prisoners of a class which is for
the most part forced to depend upon
counsel incompetent to handle a case
in which life is involved, these dis
tinguished lawyers set a good example
for professional brethren everywhere.
In these days of legal specialists and
large fees it is often forgotten that the
attorney is a sworn officer of the
court and the servant of justice.

WOMAN WANT THE BALLOT
DECLARES MRS BELMONT
American Women Will Force the Issue
She Says.
Newport, R. 1., Oct. 2.—Mrs. O. H. P.
Belmont of Newport and New York
strikes a new surprising note in the
j woman’s suffrage movement.
Iu an article published under this
Li; ’s name in a current magazine the
movement is represented as an impla
cable class struggle between the
sexes. '>
Mrs. Belmont thinks that men will
never concede the political equality of
women without a measuring of forces
—if not fight. ?
Within a genration or so, according
to lier rousing prophecy, the women
of America will publish to the men an
ultimatum somewhat after this fash
ion :
“Until you give us the ballot we
will not marry yon, we will r.ot work
, in your places of business, we will
I have nothing to do with you, socially,
industrially or any way.”

: Com. Hudson to Enforce Law Effective
Oct. Ist
Americus housekeepers will see no
more of the peroxide blonde flour,
which tasteless stuff they have kuown
for years, as more flour bleached by
nitrogen peroxide will be allowed sold
in Georgia. This order went into ef
fect in this state on Friday, October
1, when Commissioner of Agriculture
T. G. Hudson issued the following
statement:
“Under section 21 of the Food and
Drugs act of Georgia, approved Au
gust 21, 1906, it is required that all
rulings shall be made to conform with
the national rulings, and in as much
as the national government has issued
a ruling that scour bleached by nitio
gen peroxide is an adulterated prod
uct under the national food and
drugs act. ‘
“Therefore, it is hereby ruled that
the sale of flour bleached by nitrogen
peroxide will be illegal in the state
of Georgia on and after October 1.
Pure Food Inspector P. A. Methvin
will start out on a tour of the state
in a few days now to see that this law
is rigidly enforced. The punishment
for its violation is discretionary with
the trial judge, but it is promised any
violations will be severely dealt with.

TO ESCAPE THE PEN.
Wliflfc Murderer of Her Husband Gets
Life Job.
Hinesville, Ga., Oct, 2.—Choosing
exile from Georgia in preference to a
fine of SIOO and six months in the pen
itentiary, Mrs. Helen Faulling, widow
of William N. Faulling, who was kill
ed by Charles A. Gordon, has left for
Florida, closing the final chapter in a
tragedy which has stirred Liberty
county more than an yother.
Mrs. Faulling was held as an acces
sory to the murder, and her confes
sion brought to a sudden close the
trial of Gordon.
She pleaded guilty to a statutory
offense and was fined SIOO and sen
tenced to serve a term of six months.
The court, however, suspended the
sentence during her absence from the
state. The woman immediately left
Hinesville, and said that she will not
return to Georgia, but will live in
Florida.
In sentencing Gordon to life impris
onment Judge Seabrook congratulated
the defendant on escaping with his
life. It is not believed that any ef
fort will be made to secure a new
trial.
