WATSON CASE TOBE
HEARD IN THE FALL
IF HE IS INDICTED BY THE
FEDERAL GRAND JURY ,
IN MACON.
_. 1 I
From the Macon Telegraph.
District Attorney Alex Aker
man has returned from Au
gusta, where he represented the '
government in its prosecution J
of Thomas E. Watson the Thom
son editor, on a warrant charg
ing Mr. Watson with having
sent obscene matter through the (
mails. Mr. Akerman was at his (
office in the federal building as ,
usual yesterday. ,
Mr. Akerman states that there
were no sensational features,
further than those given by the
newspapers at the hearing oi ;
Mr. Watson Friday, when Mr.
Watson was held by the United
States commissioner under SSOO (
bond until the next meeting of (
the federal grand jury. If Mr
Watson is indicted by the’ grand
jury, which will probably be ,
called in August or November,
he will in all probability be tried
at the next term of court.
As all the court officials reside
in Macon it is customary for
Judge Speer to draw the juries
for the different divisions in his
district at Macon. The grand
jury which will consider the
charges against Mr. Watson will
be composed of citizens of the
counties of the western division,
which includes Richmond and
' surrounding counties.
District Attorney Akerman
stated that the specific charge
now against Mr. Watson could
in no way interfere with the
publication of Watson’s Maga
zine or his publication of the se
ries of articles on what he terms
the Catholic Hierarchy, as the
government has no right to pre
sume that any succeeding issue
of the magazine will contain ob
scene matter. Mr. Akerman
stated, however, that another
warrant will be issued against
Mr. Watson in the event he
prints any obscene matter in the
future and complaint is made by
postoffice inspectors.

Announcements
TO THE WHITE VOTERS OF
WILKINSON COUNTY.
I am a candidate to succeed
myself as judge of the Dublin
Circuit. The primary will oc
cur next August, but as the|
dockets of the Superior courts
of this Circuit contain many
cases, and as I shall endeavor to
catch up the business of the
courts, I may not have an op
portunity of seeing you and dis
cussing with you in person, the
matter of my candidacy; there
fore I write this card.
I held the position as judge
of the city court of Dublin for
three years, during which time
the dockets and minutes of that
court show that more cases
were tried, and more business
disposed of than in any four
years prior to the time I went
on the bench.
I shall strive to discharge the
duties of judge of the Superior
courts fairly and impartially, do
equal rights to the poor and the
rich, dispose of the business as
rapidly as I can, with as little
expense to the county and as lit
tle trouble and annoyance to
the people as possible. If Ido
this, should I be defeated after
only one year’s service? If I
do this, am I not entitled, as a
matter of fairness and right to
a full term of four years?
Sincerely yours,
K: J. HAWKINS.
To the Voters of the Dublin
Judicial Circuit:
I respectfully announce my
candidacy for the office of soli
citor general of this circuit, sub
ject to the action of the Demo
cratic primary.
M. J. CARSWELL.
Jeffersonville, Ga., Feb. 3, 1912.
FOR SOLICITOR
To the Voters of the Dublin Ju
dicial Circuit:
I am a candidate for the office
of solicitor general .of the Dublin
judicial circuit, subject to the re
sult of the primary election to
be held in 1912. In event of my
election I shall strive to dis
charge the duties pf the* office
rigidly, impartially and faith
fully. ! 1
I belive that a solicitor should
prosecute the rich and the poor,
the high and low alike. No
man’s money, nor his social or
political standing should be used
to defeat the ends of justice;
that all who violate the law
should be made to endure its
penalty.
I am in favor of abolishing
the fee system, placing solici
tors general on a salary, run
ning the courts with dispatch
and economy, strict and due en
forcement of the law, rigid ob
servance of the election law,
stamping out and forever oblit
erating the use of liquor and
money in elections; a healthy
sentiment that is the exponent
of the honesty and supremacy
of law and good government.
I respectfully solicit the suf
frage of ail the voters of the
circuit.
Yours truly,
E. L. STEPHENS.
FOR JUDGE.

effort of my life to fill the of
fice faithfully .impartially and

Respectfully,
J. E. BURCH.

years’ experience as a practicing
attorney and making criminal
law a specialty, I hope to be able,

Danger!
Danger!
NEIGHBOR, IS YOUR LIFE INSURED? YES.
IS YOUR HOUSE AND BARN INSURED? YES.
VERY WELL, THEN, YOU SEEM TO BE TAKING PRECAUTION
AS IF SOMETHING TERRIBLE WAS GOING TO OVERCOME YOU.
SI ILL THIS DOES NOT SHOW BAD JUDGMENT IN YOU, BUT
RATHER SHOWS THAT YOU AR E A PROGRESSIVE AND SAFE
BUSINESS MAN.
One More Question We
Would Ask You: Is Your
Money Insured?
HAD YOU EVER THOUGHT OF THAT?
HOW ABOUT THAT MONEY THAT IS LYING BACK IN THE
TRUNK? IS IT INSURED? IF NOT, YOU ARE THE PERSON WE
ARE LOOKING FOR:
WE OFFER YOU A SAFE PLACE TO LEAVE YOUR MONEY
WHERE IT IS INSURED AGAINST LOSS. NOT SIMPLY FROM
FIRE, FROM ROBBERS AND THE LIKE, BUT INSURED AGAINST
LOSS.
THAT WORD, LOSS, COVERS THE WHOLE CATEGORY OF
LOSSES. A FELLOW DOES NOT HAVE TO GET HIS MONEY
BURNED UP TO LOSE, HE DOES NOT EVEN HAVE TO BE HELD
UP AND ROBBED TO LOSE IT, BT OCCASIONALLY HE MAKES A
BAD LOAN AND LOSES. WH*T IS S^FtKENCE IF HE
LOSES IT?
IF YOU HAVE MONEY THAT IS ICLE AND YOU WANT
। INTEREST ON IT, WE WILL TAKE IT AND KEEP IT FOR YOU
| AND PAY WOU FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST ON IT.
