GOVERNOR JOHN MARSHALL SLATON.
The above cut is an excellent likeness of Governor John M. Slaton,
who was sworn in as Governor Hoké Smith’s successor on the 15th.
He has ordered the special election to fill the vacancy for January 10th
and has called the Legislature to 'meet in extra session on January 24th.
The inauguration of Governor Slaton’s sguccessor will take place on
January 25th. Governor Slaton will serve, therefore, for two month’s
and ten days. He is a brilliant young Georgian and well worthy of
the high office he occupies.
WHIPPING IN THE JAIL
JUST HAD 70 BE uu’fl'r]'
SO SAYS JUDGE MORRIS, WHO
AUTHORIZED STRAPPING.
i .
Dungeon Failed to Stop Noise and
Cursing but Leather Brought '
Profound Quiet. |
Judge Morris created a (tonsider.’ablt“
stir in the court room Monday when,
in the course of his charge to the
grand jury, he told of three whippings
administered in the county jail recent
ly by his direction.
“They got what was coming to
them” he said, ‘‘and you can find in
dictments if you wish to do so and the
‘petty juries can convict, but they will
‘not be hurt much when they come be
{fore me for sentence. I authorized it
and I am not going to try to shift the
responsibility.”
Judge Morris had been talking of
the prevalence of crime in the county
land especially of the great number of
[blind tigers, the great evils of the
whisky business which results in from
‘seventy-flve to ninety per cent, of the
{crime, he had condemned the pardon
|ing of notorious blind tigers, had spo
|ken of the fact that there were twen
‘ty-eight prisoners in the jail and con
| tinued:
é “They have a hard bunch in the jail.
They have tried to break out, some of
lthem have broken out. They cursed,
|tore up things, burned their blankets,
| threatened to kill anybody that vame‘
jinto the corridors, cursed the sheriff
and his deputy, used all sorts of vile§
iand obscene language, and hollored
land beat on the cells so that people in |
the neighborhood could not sleep. Some
lof the citizens down that way talked
{of moving.
| The deputy sheriff lives in the jail
{ with his family. His wife is entitled
;w protection. I do not care who is
sheriff and who is deputy, 1 intend
that they and their families shall be
protected, The disorder continued for
several weeks. The three men who
| were causing it were put in the dun
geon, but it had no effect. 1 was tele
phoned to about it and when ecvery
thing else had failed I told the oflicers
to go in there vith a gtrap, to not heat
the men up, but to stop that disorder
and enforce quiet and decency in the
jail. They did gv in there and they
did not draw any blood but they gave
those men a genuine whipping apiece
jand there has been profound peace
'and quiet in that jail ever since.
There has been considerable talk
about the whipping. If anything
wrong was done, 1 am as much to
blame as anybody. Nothing would do
them but a good strapping and they
got it.” |
The judge was laughing when he}
concluded and jurors and spectators
joined in, especially when Judge Mor
ris wound up with the statement quot
ed above, that the grand jury might
indict and the petty juries convict,
but there would not be anything doing
when sentencing time arrived,

ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT
SOLD TO STREET CAR CO.
The electric lighting plant of the
Kennesaw Paper Company has been
sold to the street railway company,
It is understood that the price was
in the neighborhood of $25,000.
Thé new owners are interested in
the great power company that is
developing Tallulah Falls and other
water powers.
The city has voted $20,000 for an
electric lighting plant and there
have been some negotiations looking
to the purchase of the Paper Com
pany’s poles and wires, For that
part of the plant the Water Board
offered $16,000, which wag declined.
It is possible that some arrange
ments may be made with the new
owners of the existing system. If
not, the Water Board will proceed
as originally intended.
