IT'S NAKED ISSUE OF RIGHT AND WRONG —SAYS ROOSEVELT. Fails to “See How an Honora ble Man Can Profit by Such Trickery.” NEW YORK, June 11.—In an arti cle entitled “A Naked Issue of Right j and Wrong." which appears in the cur- I rent issue of the Outlook. Theodore Roosevelt discusses the situation at Chicago in part as follows: "The contest for the Republican nom ination has now narrowed down to a naked issue of right and wrong: for the issue is simply whether or not we Shall permit a system of naked fraud, of naked theft from the people, to triumph. "I have made this contest on two great principles—first, the right of the people to rule, and. therefore, in the exercise of their deliberate judgment to control their government and their governmental agents: arid, second, their duty so to rule as to bring about not only political but social and in dustrial justice. Will Not Submit to Bosses. "I have endeavored everywhere to Appeal, not to the politicians, but to the people themselves, and to get.Jheir judgment, stating scores of times that J would do my best to convert them to iny way of thinking', that I should acquiesce as a matter of course in their judgment, if it was adverse, but that if their judgment was favorable. I did not intend tamely to submit to an effort by the politicians to throw aside the verdict of the people and substi tute a fake verdict of their own. This Is precisely what Mr. Barnes, Mr. Mc- Kinley and their associates and repre sentatives on the national commit tee at Chicago are now attempting. “Honorable Man Would Not Profit.” “Ohio went by over 30,000 majority against Mr. Taft at the primaries, but the Taft managers had refused to per mit a vote to be taken at the prima ries for the delegates at large, and in ; the state convention by adroit polit- | leal trickery they sent six Taft dele- • gates to vote at Chicago for the man whom his own state had just repudiat- 1 ed by 30,000 majority. “I fail myself to see how an hon orable man can profit by or take part | in such a piece of trickery as this | Ohio stale convention ‘victory.' In the same way, 1 fail to see how an honor able man can profit by or connive al i or approve of the farcical New York county primaries. “But the caste was far worse in Washington, in Indiana, in Michigan. In many of these cases the Taft dele gates represent absolutely nothing but fraud, as vulgar, as brazen and as cynically open as any ever committed by the Tweed regime in New York forty-odd years ago. "Mr. Taft can not be nominated un less he getet the overwhelming ma- 1 jority of the rotten borough states j which never cast a Republican electo- , ral vote, and in which the delegations | represent only the office-holders. “Even if he gets practically all the | delegates from these states, he can not I ■be nominated unless, by deliberate fraud, in such states as Indiana. Mich igan and Washington, not to mention others, the Republicans are defrauded out of their right to express their preference as to who is to get their votes. He can be nominated only by disregarding the expressed will of an overwhelming majority of two and a half million of Republicans who. from Massachusetts and Pennsylvania to Illinois and California, have voted as to their choice for president.’ 200-FOOT BAS-RELIEF MAP OF SOUTH TO BE EXPOSITION FEATURE WASHINGTON, D. C„ Jun< 11.—A relief map of the Southern states, measuring 200 feet bj’ 80 feet, in a building especially constructed tor it. is to be erected at the National Con servation exposition to be held in Knoxville, Tt#in., in the fall of 1913. ac cording to plans announced today from the exposition’s Washington office.

The Georgia peach is flying North ward this week. 'The movement has almost reached its height and the rail ways between Atlanta and the East are being taxed to handle the enor mous shipments. Special trains, operated on passen ger schedules and cutting the time from Atlanta to New York to 26 hours, are carrying the cars of iced fruit. The peaches, by car lots, are coming to Atlanta*daily. and the yards ar' busier than at any time in the imst year, making up fast trains for Easr bound traffic. Atlanta is the corner,- tration point for all fruit from south Georgia points, and most of the wmk Is done at night, when the daily busi ness is out of the way. Plenty of Cars Readv The Southern and other rilwaj-.j anticipating a big crop, have been pre- I paring for weeks, moving < rnpty ears. Southward and storing them in y, enlarging the icing plant in . Inman Yards. Atlanta, and arranging sched ules which will cause no delay in the transmission of the perishable freight. It is believed that there will be an am ple supply of cars this season. e\,n for the phenomenal crop exnected. The icing plant in Inman Yards Ir.d been enlarged and overhaulec. Tracks and platforms have been extended to permit the handling of 24 cars at one time, and only 15 minutes is required to ice this number properly. The dou ble-tracking of the Southern railway is expected to be conrideted this week, giving the road great facilities for the rush fruit season. INDIAN LIQUOR LAWS STILL APPLY UNDER_STATEHOOD WASHINGTON. June 11. The ap plication for a writ of habeas corpus for the release of (’liarlie Webb, who was indicted for introducing liquor from another state into the Indian country, now a part of Oklahoma, has been denied by th< supreme court, which held that the enabling act did not repeal the authority of the Federal government respecting interstate liquo' traffic affecting what was Indian Ter ritory. TTH\ ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY. JUNE 11, 1912 / A Pitiable Domestic Tragedy, in Which One of the Inno cent Is Scalped. Little Minnie Caverly went out for a 1 walk with Dora on Peachtree street : today, and that's how the tragedy oc curred. Perhaps there wouldn't have been a tragedy if Minnie hadn't been so careful of Dora. But she was afraid to brav the terrors of the motor-crowded str. el with her best-beloved child in her arms, so she laid Dora on the balustrade of the front steps. And Dora fell off. Total loss of scalp and all its really truly hair. Several severe contusions and | rhaps nervous shock were the casualties shown after a close exami nation. Minnie took the victim in her arms and sat down and wept. Fm- fifteen minutes Minnie poured out her soul in catchy sobs. Tiien she clasped Dora closer than ever and ear rie'd her into the house for surgical treatinc nt. A needle and thread, a bit of glue and a deft hand compl. ted the operation and then Dora sat up and opened her eyes as though nothing had happened. She couldn't smile any wider than be fore. But Minnie did. * G. GROSVENOR DAWE QUITS COMMERCIAL CONGRESS POSITION WASHINGTON. D. <June IL—G. Grosvenor Dawe has resigned as man aging director of the Southern Com mercial congress.

NEST EGGS PUT IN GITT BUDGET Requests Only Starters for Larger Appropriations When Funds Are Available. Despite the alleged inability of coun cil's finance committee to provide funds for a number of important Im provements urged. It was learned to day that the June budget includes | manv small appropriations as starters i for larger appropriations. In this way the finance committee of next year is obligated to carry out improvements outlined by this year’s committee. The appropriations for new projects are: For a nurses’ dormitory at the Grady hospital. $3,000. For a lire- engine house lot in Ans ley Park. $2,500.

SCRIBES INSPECT TALLULAH FALLS Officials of Power Company and Local Newspaper Men Make Trip to Falls. Atlanta newspapermen, piloted by Milt Saul, publicity director of the Georgia Railway and Power Company, left for Tallulah Falls today to go over the great work now under way which will develop the water power of the Tallulah river and convert it into electrical energy for turning wheels in Atlanta. The party left early this morning and will spend the whole day at the plant. The Georgia Railway and Power Company, the great merger into which the Georgia Railway and Electric Com pany and a dozen smaller concerns were amalgamated some time ago, and which is capitalized at $57,000,000, is developing 90.000 horsepower at its Tallulah plant, which will be only one of several water power units now un der construction or planned for the future. It is believed that in a few years Atlanta will be offered electric power so cheaply that the use of steam coal will be to a large extent abandoned land that the use of the electric cur i rent will go a long way to solve the smoke nuisance problem which has giv en the city so much trouble. One Dam Over Half Done. Two great dams, a tunnel and a power house are the chief feature of the work at Tallulah. The lower dam is about two-thirds finished. It is be ing built by the Hardaway Construc tion Company, and all the rock used comes from a quarry just below the dam. The tunnel, which carries the water, is to be about 6,660 feet long. 12 feet wide at its widest point and 14 feet high at the top of the arch. It will be lined with 12 inches of concrete. The tunnel is now about half finished. The development of Tallulah Falls will cost the company about $11,000,000, and the work will be finished in about a year. It is expected to furnish elec tric current to Atlanta. Cartersville, Rome, Gainesville. LaGrange and other Georgia cities. It will be the largest hydro-electric power unit soutli of Ni agara Falls, and the greatest plant In the Southern field now being developed by the Georgia Railway and Power Company. Reduced Rates Promised. .1, sharp reduction in electric rates, as soon as the power from Tallulah reaches Atlanta, hast already been promised by the company, and is ex pected that in a year or two after the plant is completed Atlanta will be truly an “electric city” with motors taking the place of private steam plants and the use of soft coal almost entirely abandoned. LAWYERS PLEADING CASE BEFORE JURY IN HAWKINS TRIAL HENDERSONVILLE. N. C.. June 11. By late this afternoon the Jury will have the case of the seven defendants on trial here charged with being firin- Clpals and accessories in the death of Myrtle Hawkins, who mysteriously dis appeared in September. 1911, and whose body is alleged to have been recovered from Lake Osceola.

McCall spoke for the defense yester day afternoon, he being counsel for Mrs. Lizzie Shaft, and Mrs. Nora Britt, two of the alleged accessories. Attor ney Shipman, in his address to the jury today, declared that there was more real suspicion against the Hawkins family than against the defendants on trial for the disappearance of Myrtle. TESTIMONY LEGITIMATE NEWS, IS COURT RULING RICHMOND. VA„ June 11. Con temporaneous reports of testimony taken in open court, however objec tionable to some readers, are legiti mate and may be circulated in tile mails, according to the decision of Fed eral Judge VVaddill in the case of the United States against The Journal Company of this city. While specifically upholding the free dom of tin- press, the court suggested that reputable newspapers would be governed by common decency in acting under that confirmed right. The in dictment was ordered quashed. The case grew out of the publication in The Richmond Evening Journal of testimony taken at the trial of Henry <’. Beattie. Ji . for the murder of his wife last summer.

June 11.-The lowa law regulating the sale of commercial foodstuffs was declared constitutional by the supreme court of the United States in the case of the Standard Stock Company against the food and dairy commissioner of lowa, Up and Down Peachtree Milt Saul, Auto-Crat, Hunts Joker With Club. Milt Saul, who is prominently con nected with the electric company, as the society department always says, bought an automobile this season. Miit used to be a newspaper man, and a trol ley ride on his expense account repre sented his idea of luxurious transpor tation then. But circumstances alter finances, and Mr. Saul invested in a runabout. The first day he drove down to his office he left bis car in front. n f t |le building. That evening, when his la bors were over, he absent-mindedly climbed aboard a trolley and started home. He was nearly there before he remembered his gas wagon. Back to town for him. But tlie car wasn't there. Milt toid the janitor, the police and the govern ment secret service department, but they couldn’t locate it. Next day it turned up in an alley around the coiner, where some playful friend had driven it for a joke on Milt. But he says when he finds that guy the bump of humor on his head will look like a hollow spot compared to other -ans Xiueppns upw qjiq.« saauaose.i.ixa round it. Chinese Laundrymen Adopt Business Names. There is a Chinese laundry near the Imperial hotel, run by a Celestial who jubilates in the name of Num Lee. There is nothing astonishing or re markably peculiar about that, to be sure, but it started one of the guests to talk ing, and this is what he said: "Ever since my student days I have hail my doubts about- Chinese names—- or rather, the names Chinamen employ for commercial purposes in this coun try. "In the little town where I went to college there was a Chinese laundry with a sign hanging out in front read ing 'Wall t tee.’ “It is said that one of the college students fixed up that laundrynian s sign, when the almond-eyed one first opened shop in that town: and that when the student came to painting it tile Chinaman merely told him to tlx up some name that would get the business —and ’Wan Shee" was wiial the Chink drew. The Chinese, however, always denied the story. “Os course, everything may have been all right and his name may have been ‘Wah Shee,’ but —well, I’ve had serious misgivings with respect to Chinese nomenclature ever since, nevertheless!” Society Hoodwinked By Former Chauffeur. This is the sad, sad story of a man who was not what he seemed, and the moral is that you can go a long time without being found out if you'll only keep your mouth shut. He was well dressed and quiet, and altogether gentlemanly in appearance, and when he turned up at one of At lanta’s best hotels as the agent of an automobile factory he made friends readily. He was excessively modest: even diffident; but several society folk took him up. "Where have I s--en that face before? And then s something about the back er his head that’s familiar,” some of the women remarke' 1 . But the s'ranger w is politely positive that he had never been introduced io any Atlantans in the past. He had a ear, and one afternoon he took several new-found friends to drive. One of the guests suggested that they stop at a fashionable club for al tea and highballs. They did. N< xt day th-' Atlantan received a card from the club. "Please do not bring Mr. Blank to the club again,” it said. The Atlantan was shocked. He was pained. He was sore. He called up the steward. "What's the objection to Mr. Blank?” he asked. "Oh, nothing, except he is '.hat high priced chauffeur Mrs. Peachtree brought down from New York last year and then fired,” was the reply. “He drove her out to the club very fre quently. Maybe you didn’t recognize him without his livery.” That afternoon the ex-chauffeur, who had blossomed into an auto sales man, faded from the hotel. Girls Buying Sox—For Brothers, of Course. About every third young woman who I goes into a Peachtree department store | these dais purchases -not silk, lace or | taffeta, but an abundant supply of half- i hose —sox. And she doesn't purchase] ordinary kirn..--, - it'o- . \\ lien it s not j pure silk, it's fancy styles and open i works. She says they are for "broth- j er.” Just why brother should need s-. ' many sox at this particular season of the year Is the cause of much puzzle ment to the clerks. Ami why should : brother be paying a dollar per pair t when he ordinarily employs only a quarter —or al the most a half-dollar? ! In addition to this, the young women have been purchasing a very ornate style of garter which brother might wear, of course, but which he never has worn so far as the records go. This fact, coupled with two others, has aided the puzzled clerks in arriving at a conclusion, which conclusion, by the by, will go unmentioned here. The facts are these: Firstly, ex tremely tight skirts are still in vogue; secondly, half hose are much cooler than whole hose. DON'T TRY TO FOLLOW T. R. AND ME, WARNS MR. BRYAN DENVER, COLO..

Members of the Atlanta Art associa tion are awaiting with keen interest the appointment of a committee by Mrs. S. M. Inman, the president, to consider details of the great historical pageant to be held in Atlanta. When the committee is appointed it will pro ceed to take up plans for the event, considering the cost of carrying It through, the revenue that may be ex pected and the details of its arrange ments. Thomas Woods Stevens, of the Chi cago Art institute, in an address to the association in the Capital City club told of the important points to be brought out in the pageant, and the no.st striking scenes and the best way to present them. He declared Georgia ind Atlanta, offer more dramatic his torical scenes than any state and city he has visited. “Probably the coming of Oglethorpe from a debtor's prison to free Amer ica to make the place in history he did is of more dramatic Interest than any part of Georgia’s history.” said Mr. Stevens. Not Me-ely a Street Parade. “In the pageant fve want to bring out such points. We do«not want to have merely a street parade. We want lit'■ and reality in it from the start to the finish, and should bring out char acters and events. Pick out some of the great, accomplishments of the city and present them in a dramatic man ner. Make each scene a place in it self. separate from all the rest, that every important part of it may be presented in Its entirety. “Amateurs can carry the parts as well as professionals. When they ap peal* in a pageant they are before the people only a few moments and in that time, even if their power of rep resentation of a character is limited, the parts are interesting through the short scene." A number of scenes were suggested by Mr. ritevens, including the landing of DeSato and Oglethorpe, their march I across the wilderness, and later his torical events of Georgia and Atlanta. Mr. Stevens returned to Chicago last night, where he will begin the work of writing the play on which the pa geant is to be founded.
