JAIL BEEF TRUST HE«TINE Jersey Senator Says People Will Not Stand Another Such Chicago Fiasco. By JAMES E. MARTINE, United States Senator from New Jersey WASHINGTON, June 14.—The power of the Beef Trust, acquired through years of contact, corrupt or otherwise. * with public officials is alone re sponsible for the recent fiasco in Chi cago, where a number of its officials escaped criminal prosecution. The whole affair was a miscarriage of justice. The temper of the American people will not swallow another af fair of this sort. I believe the Beef Trust is the most iniquitous monopoly this country or any other country has ever" seen. It strikes at the very existence of every man. woman and child from Maine to Texa'- and from Florida to Washing ton. It has acquired for itself practi cally an absolute monopoly of one of the great food staples of the human race. Would Jail Officials. It works countless and undesirable hardships upon our people by its ex tortionate demands, if I could pro ceed to their prosecution individual!.'. I would have every official and each criminally associated employee behind prison bars. In this thought I express openly the inner thoughts of thou sands of men in this country, repre senting all classes of the social order. The Steel Trust, the Tobacco Trust, the Standard Oil Company, the Har vester Trust and the Paper Trust are all bad enough—worse than those who molded the destinies of our nation could ever have anticipated. But none of them compare with the Beef 1 rust. It strike- at man's existence. Food in this country should be within reach of every man's pocketbook. The Beef Trust has the American people by the throat, both turning and going. It pays '"hat it chooses to the producer of the meat animal products. We have to take them at that price or do without. I speak feelingly in these matters. J have had bitter expe riences at both .ends of the trusts business enterprise. ’’Let Each Move Be Aired. I am glad to see that Chairman • lac - ton and his house judiciary committee hav» undertaken an investigation. The capacity of the chairman and the per- * sonne! of the committee, in my opin ion. guarantee that this investigation will not prove the fruitless, inconse quential affairs that some other inves tigations have proved in the past. Let each guilty act of this trust be aired that the people may know to the minutest detail hoifi they have been robbed. Public sentiment will forever prohibit a repetition of the offense. Let the conclusions be such that a success ful dissolution suit and successful crim inal prosecutions will quickly follow. If the investigation shows that the Sherman Anti-Trust law needs amend ment I shall be among the first to ad vocate enactment of such amendments TOO SHARP TURN IS BLAMED FOR FALL OF LIEUT. HAZLEHURST WASHINGTON, June 14. —That the air accident which caused the death here last Tuesday of Lieutenant L. W. Hazlehurst, Jr., and A. L. Welch, the Wright aviator, was due to terrific'air pressure on the aluminum painted can vas wings, caused by too sharp a turn at full speed to ascend, was the pre liminary finding of the army board, which investigated the accident. Although the board has prepared no written report, it reported orally to Colonel George P. Scriven, acting chief signal officer, as follows: • . "In his endeavor to succeed in the altitude climb. Mr. Welch started from an elevation of about 150 feet and drove the machine toward the ground with the engtte running at reduced speed, in order to give the impetus with which to make his upward climb. When he reached a point near the ground, from which he was to start the climb, at a terrific speed, Welch turned on the full power and at the same time turned the machine into the ait. The angle of ascent was so sharp and the speed so great that the machine was incapable of withstanding the pressure of the air. and the wings therefore col lapsed." MACON SPENT $90,000 ON ENTERTAINING VETERANS MACON, GA., June 14.—-It cost Ma con exactly $90,000 to take care of the recent Confederate reunion in an offi cial way.

Up and Doion Peachtree Real Mint Juleps Recalled by Graves. Howard Horace Graves, Colonel Kim ball House Ed Brown's best bet "be hind the tavern counter," was referred to in a newspaper recently as “Bar keep Horace." Howard Horace didn't throw any fits about that, particularly, although he isn’t a “barkeep” and never has been, being nothing more nor less than a modest hotel clerk, but it started him to "ruminating," as the late Rill Aril used to put it. "I recall some of the barkeeps that .. - - ■ The dam under construction at Tallulah Falls. This will store power for the bi<r light and power plant which will furnish Atlanta with electricity. -Just above this dam two beautiful lakes for use of tourists and pleasure-seekers will be created. used to be. on the job in this hostelry long ago. and I think now and then of the glorious concoctions they used to frame up along about this time of the yea r. "We had one here once who could make the finest paint juleps in the world—all frosty with sugar, and great bunches of green stuff sticking out of the glass, and —you know, don't you? "You can not get a genuine mint julep nowadays, unless maybe you run afoul of an old-time Georgia ‘colonel’ somewhere who hasn't forgotten how they really should be made! "You see," continued Howard Hor ace, after an impressive pause, “the modern mixologist doesn't know the difference between a mint julep and a whisky smash. The former is a drink fashioned originally for the Olympian gods, when they had tired of ambro siaal nectars and required something really fine and appertizing. The other thing—the man who drinks it is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils, and hath no music in his soul or apprecia tion in his palate. "In a mint julep the mint is never bruised, and it must be watered in the melting of its own ice: in a whisky smash the mint is bruised, crushed and otherwise maltreated, and the re sult is a drink fit for no gentleman, anyway. “Our good, old-fashioned barkeep was a wonder of the old persuasion He came down to us. gently and sweet ly. from 'befo' de wah’ days—bless him! He has gone to his high leward. 1 sus pect. He was not altogether of this earth, perhaps. He was a rare mixer of mint juleps—take him for all in all, I suppose we shall not look upon his like again," concluded Howard Horace. And as he dismissed the subject, lov ingly and caressingly, Howard Horace's voice softened to a melancholy cadence of resignation and noble despair. UPSON TEACHERS TO GET THEIR SALARIES MONTHLY THOMASTON. GA.. June 14—John A. Thurston, Upson county school su perintendent. who has just assumed the duties of his office, says that in the future the teachers of the public schools of Upson county will be paid monthly, he having made arrangements to borrow the money from a local hank until state funds are available.

FRIDAY, JUNE 14. 1912. NINTH DE CITY BABIES PERISH And Most of These Could Have Been Saved, Declares Child Welfare Expert. CLEVELAND. OHIO. June 14.—Out of every nine babies born in cities one die. and most of these could be saved, according to the statement of Wilbur C. Phillips, secretary of the child wel- fare commission of Milwaukee, in dis cussing a community plan for infant welfare work before the National Con ference of Charities and Correction here. Mr. Phillips proposed the organiza tion of health education centers, to the end that mothers may be propelly cared for and instructed before the birth of children, and babies properly supervised after birth. He contended that such service can be furnished in the average community at the rate of s(> per year for each mother apd babe. He estimated the actual cost to par ents in Milwaukee of rearing babies to the average, age at which they die, or about four months, of paying cost of confinement, clothes. baby carriage, high chait, layette equipment, doctor bills, medicine, etc., as not less than $l2O each, and that the actual cash loss repiesent'ed by one dead baby, therefore, would purchase nodical ami nursing supervision and care for twen ty babies for one year.

Tallulah Not to Lose All Charm CREATE LAKES AT FALLS " A -r 'i - 5 SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS Emmet Shaw, who has been having things pretty much to himself so far as the handshaking and speechmaking are concerned down in the Third congress ional district, will have to cease firing pretty soon and come to Atlanta to look after his legislative duties. But the peoph of that district know, good and well, that Shaw’s departure for Atlanta means anything but a let-up in the campaign, for right on the heels of Shaw’s going, Charlie Crisp will come down from Washington, and begin a little handshaking and speechmaking him self. So far Mr. Crisp, because of his duties in Washington as house par-iamentarian, has had practically no opportunity to prosecute his campaign for congress. He has written such letters as he could, and has kept in touch with his friends, but his actral campaigning has amounted to very little. This race is a particularly warm one, and there are partisans of both Shaw and Crisp who are willing to bet on their man. * It looks as if Crisp is to have the clos ing argument, however—whatever that may be worth. Some Toms recently in the limelight— Hudson. Watson. Eelder. Loyless. That Dr. L. G. Hardman, of Commerce, Jackson county, is seriously contemplat ing the idea of becoming a candidate for governor of Georgia Is very true. The doctor himself admits that. That he has not yet made up his mind definitely concerning the matter is no less a positive fact, however the doctor un hesitatingly admits that, ton l nquestionably. the former legislator Is being widely petitioned to run Much, if not all, the pressure s incere. too -though there may be some of it born of a desire to see somebody give Jack Slaton a good run for his money, of course. Dr. Hardman has said that he will make a final statement sometime this week, probably Saturday or Sunday.

Redfern repeats his statement that the hobble skirt must go. ”1 said.” he declares, “that skirts would be made fuller, giving to the wearer at least a reasonable freedom of movement If you look around you will see a dis tinct tendency in that direction The Parlsienne has abandoned the hobble skirt In tailor-made costumes the skirts will be tight around the hips, hut, in stead of being still further tightened low er down, as In the hobble skirt, will fall straight. “There will be a much greater change in afternoon and evening dresses.

NEVIN. are just a little against the doctor's run ning but Kimball house betting odds more than once have gone all wrong. If Colonel Roosevelt is the game sport most people think him to be. he will admit that hr couldn’t run that steam roller better himself, even in his most strenuous steam roller day. Representative J. O. Adams, of Hall county, is coming to Atlanta when the legislature meets, with several big bills up his sleeve. one of them will call for the placing of solicitors general on salaries. Instead of fees, as at present; another will call for the creation of the office of lieutenant governor; another calls for the printing of all school books by the state; another will call for strenuous amendments to the game law. and still another will call for the establishment at Milledgeville of a place of execution, to which all felons sen tenced to death shall be sent for obliter ation. i Mr Adams thinks if he gets these bills all enacted into law he will have estab lished a reputation as some bill passer!

Evidence that cordiality has been es tablished between the Hatfield and Mc- Coy families and that the bloody feud of years standing is at an end was con tained in a telegram which Dr. H. J. Hatfield, cousin of "Devil Anae” Hat field. leader of the Hatfield clan, re ceived from A. J. McCoy, leader of the McCoy faction, indorsing his candidacy for governor of West Virginia.

A remarkable confession is on file with Governor Brown to day. submitted by Postoffice In spector Gregory in an attempt to secure commutation of sentence, for a former ‘yeggman,” who is now be ing used by the Federal government In an effort to break up an organized gang that has blown postoffice safes in the South for years. The youthful "yegg," who sailed un der the name of Red Harrington dur ing his career of crime, but whose real name is withheld, unblushingly pleaded guilty to at least 30 robberies in Geor gia and the Carolinas extending over a period of twelve years. He gave his age as 29 and asserted he became a full-fledged safe blower in good stand ing with the Southern gang when but seventeen years of age. Harrington served two penitentiary sentences, one in a turpentine camp in Sylvester, from which he escaped be fore completion of his term, and an other In the Federal prison. He was pardoned by President Taft to be used by the postoffice department in prose cuting his former pals. ft was the Georgia sentence still hanging over the boy’s head that caused the postoffice authorities to ap peal to Governor Brown. The governor suspended Harrington's remaining six months sentence. Harrington began his criminal expe riences In South Carolina in 1900, com mitting burglaries and blowing safes, uninterrupted, for four years. He was captured near Carl, Ga* in 1904, and threatened with lynching if he did not betray his pals. The mob that assembled tied him to a stake and threatened..to burn him and later beat him with a buggy whip, but he re mained loyal. The postoffice authorities told the governor that Harrington is now in a little South Carolina town, where he is living a life of rectitude. His testi mony alone, they said, had secured the conviction of at least six desperate yeggmen. TAFT CHARGED WITH MISUSING TRAVELING FUND BY LAWMAKER WASHINGTON, June 14. —Chairman Fitzgerald, of the house appropriations committee, during consideration of the sundry civil appropriation bill, bitterly attacked President Taft, charging that he had misused the $25,000 traveling fund appropriated yearly. He declared the president on his recent Western trip had mulcted the newspaper and pecret service men in spite of protests, to holster his depleted funds. . “It is deplorable," be said, "to have to state these facts to the house and the country." Mr. Fitzgerald declared, however, that he would vote for the item, which eventually was adopted, 78 to 55. He said facetiously that he believed It would “pay the. Democratic party and the country if the president traveled the year round.” He then referred di rectly to the president’s Western trip. “The pro rata cost of each person was figured out. and every newspaper man was requested to pay $1,500 to pay for his expenses. Out of the fund for the suppression of counterfeiting and the protection of the president of the United States $4,500 was taken to de fray the expenses upon the train of three employees of the secret service, against the protest of the acting chief of the secret service."

Next Week: TRIXIE FRI6ANZ* GOVERNOR BABE ENTRIES CLOSED Slaton and Hall Expected To Be Only Contestants for State’s Executive. Despite various interesting “rumors’’ going the rounds, opinion is rapidly crystallizing among statesmen near and far in Georgia that there are to be no further entries into the gubernatorial contest—that the battle is to be fought out between John M. Slaton, of Fulton, and Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb. Talk of Murphey Candler and Thom, as S. Felder as candidates practically has ceased entirely. Both are known to have been seriously considered for a time by various political leaders here and there, and undoubtedly pressure was brought to bear on both, from one quarter and another, to run. It is generally accepted as a fact to day, however, that neither Mr. Candler nor Mr. Felder will get into the fight this time. Hardwick's Entry improbable. Thomas W. Hardwick, of the Tenth congressional district, recently wasj considered a more than likely entry. But Mr. Hardwick has not intimated tn anybody publicly that he intends run ning, and specific inquiry directed to him fails to get a reply that Indicates his intention, or even remote purptwe, to run. A day or so ago the.re was a revival of the L. G. Hardman boom, and It was given out, with some show of au thority, that the doctor would throw hip hat into the ring. But as time runs on the doctor's hat doesn’t appear Inside the magic circle; and recent direct in quiry to him has elicited no reply that necessarily means anything. Hall Making Speeches Dally. In the meantime, both Slaton and Hall are as busy as can be getting their campaigns shaped up and well under way. Mr. Hall is making speeches dally, and is being greeted with genuine enthusiasm in various quarters. Mr, Slaton is constantly in close touch with hfs friends and feels sure that he has fallen heir to a decided preponderance of the late Hudson strength. Apparently, the state is rapidly divid ing between these two —and If there are to be other entries, observers of events and things generally are begin ning to wonder why they hang fire so persistently. The primary is now little more than two months away, and It will require considerable time and most aggressive persistence, so those well informed think, to break into the constantly tightening Slaton and Hall lines, even as the situation is today.
