1 NEW CONVICT SYSTEM i
3 JUST ONE YEAR OLD. j
* Atlanta. —One year ago the con-
< viet lease systij: Georgia i
* abolished. imjv oe hew system nl .
* apportioning convicts'among the j
s counties of the state became of- f
J feet i vh. i
•* The passing of the old system \
* marked the beginning of :i new era )
* of good muds in Georgia, and t hat )
* the new system has produced splen- j
2 did results is proven by tin* fact i
* that the 97counties takingconviet s )
"* applied for an increased number i
for another year. And m>t only :
will these 97 counties continue to ?
* work state convicts, Imt eight j
* new counties fell in line when the j
* time'rolled around fur another up .
* portionment, making 105 counties *
* in all that will reap tin* benefits *
* of the new system. f
* The total numherof convicts up- f
* i portioned among t in* 105 countuof i
is 1,991; but that total is small, )
3 compared to the number that j
could have been apportioned il j
2, the prison commission had more )
2 to give out. j
2 Judge G. It. Hutchens, chair- )
man of the commission believes j
3 that the commission could havu ;
easily disposed of 4,000 convicts, j
3 “The counties working state
convicts were remarkably success- j
fill in improving their roads.” j
2 said he, “and their success the j
3 first, year assures even greater sue- j
cess the s(*eond year, for they j
recommendation the system could -
2 have is the fact that all tin* conn- ■
ties wanted more convicts, than
4 they could get.” I

SUGGESTED BY THE DEATH
OF JUSTICE BREWER. ;
In the hurly-burly of business f
and of personal worry, who ever
stops to consider the near-incal
culable mental strain put upon
the judges of tlie United States
supreme court —tin* highest, tribu
nals of tlie states,for that mallei ?
In the hands of these men, no
longer young, few of them vigor
ous, rests the responsibility of 1
safeguarding freedom and order in
America —for despite quibble.and |
levity, it is upon the constitution , ,
that llie American scheme of equ
ity in government ultimately rests.
From every state in the union
I comes up an annual aggregate of
scores of appealed causes, involv
ing intricate legal and const itu- ,
tional issues that iiave wrinkled ,
1 tlie brows of and brought gray ,
hairs to them that sit. upon the
lesser benches.
In virtually every instance, tie*
clashing content ions go down t o
the bed-rock of government in
America, conceding that, the dom
inion under which we live is final
ly expressed in the niagna chart a
of the new world.
A malcjnstruction or a misin
terpretation brings maledictions
perhaps precipitate chaos. in
any event, tlie welfare of our in-
stitutions in their complicated
J phases, and the eventual wellari
of the people, wait with breath
suspended upon the mandate of
these white-haired, toiling men
And yet, it could not he other
wise. “Old heads for counsel.
2 Years have stricken folly from
their blood, have crowned just ice
und judgment with maturity and
precision.
But let us not forget the obliga
te tions under which we rest to th se
truly “elder statesmen.”
Infinite temptation dogs their
footsteps.
That so few of them have shown
;lj; unworthy is a lasting inspiration
;j; ! to the man who loves his country.
—Atlanta Gonstituticn
HE KNEW THEM,
> A Congregational minister, the *
father of twins, 8-year-old hoys, 1
I* was obliged to send one from tie
table for misbehavior. The little
fellow was sitting crestfallen >n a
•!j chair m an adjoining room when
; the maid entered. Upon spying *
;|U him she said : “Oh, Billie, I’d be
:i; ashamed to be sent away from the
l|| table as big a boy as you are,too. ” :
li! I Billie, with flashing eyes drew i
<j; j himself up, saying: “Well, you |
l|: wouldn’t if you’d know n this fain-.
jj|! liy as long as I have.”
