Announcements
To the Voters of the Dublin Judicial
Circuit:
I am a candidate for the office of
solicitor general of the Dublin judi- 1
dial circuit, subject to the result of
the primary election to be held in
1912. In event of my election I shall
strive to discharge the duties of the
office rigidly, impartially and faithful
ly-
I believe that a solicitor should pros
ecute the rich and the poor, the high
and low alike. No man’s money, nor
his social or political standing should
Le used to defeat the ends of justice;
;hat all who violate the law should be
made to endure its penalty.
I am in favor of abolishing the fee
t-stem, placing solicitor generals on
salary, running the courts with dis
patch and economy, strict and due en
forcement of the law, rigid obser
vance of the election law, stamping
out and forever obliterating the use of
liquor and money in elections; a heal
thy sentiment that is the exponent of
the majesty and supremacy of law
and good government.
I respectfully solicit the suffrage
of all the voters of the circuit.
Yours truly,
E. L. STEPHENS.

GQIK’G AFTER THE
MEN HIGHER IIP
Detective Bums Talks of His
. Plans.
I
IIIDICTMENTS ARE EXPECTED
I
Sleuth Says That John E. McNamara
Was Paid One Thousand Dollars a
Month to Carry on His Alleged Dy
| namiting Operations.
‘‘lt is perfectly true that the exeen
■ five council of the iron workers’ un
ion voted a monthly fund of SI,OOO tc
be paid to John J. McNamara. There
is evidence to substantiate the charge
that this money was knowingly voted
for the purpose of paying it to James
B. McNamara and Ortie McManigal,
and that it was used by them in their
dynamiting operations.”
That was the statement of Detec
’ tive William J. Burns, who arrived at
Cleveland from Akron, Ohio.
i That he was going after "the men
higher up,” and a criticism of Presi
dent Samuel Gompers, of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, were other
points emphasized by Mr. Burns.
The detective spent the day in Ak
ron, where he investigated the Ber
ger Iron Works explosion of July,
1910.
; “We are going after the men back
of the McNamaras,” said Mr. Burns,
“and the Investigation will be pushed
' energetically till we bring to justice
the men who are really responsible
lor the dynamiting outrages over the
country.
“I have lately come from Indianap
olis, where I conferred with United
States District Attorney Miller.
Enough evidence will be brought be
fore the grand jury at its meeting
there December 14 to cause a number
of indictments.”
A STRANGE FATALITY.
Lines Strangle Driver When He Fell
From Wagon.
Charlie Keith, aged 30, was found
I Saturday night in dying condition
i on the Chulio road, near an old black
j smith shop, about 5 miles from Rome.
; Ga. The discovery was made by a
I party of ’possum hunters crossing the
. road.
They were attracted by a team of
' mules standing on the roadside, and
| went up to investigate. They found
■ Keith on the ground with the lines
I around his neck. As quickly as pos-
I sible they cut the lines and examined
1 the unconscious man, to find that his
I pulse was beating slightly. lie did
i not rally to stimulants, and died in a
few minutes.
There were no wounds about his
! head, and no blood about his cloth
ing. The plausible theory in regard
■ to the man’s death is that he fell off
I the wagon with the lines around his
I neck, and that he died of stranguia-
I tion when he was dragged along by
j his moving team.
KNEW OF THEIR GUILT.
So Says Burns in Speaking of Gom
pers.
A dispatch from Indianapolis says:
1 W. J. Burns, the detective who caused
I the arrest of the McNamara brothers,
, spent two hours here today in con
' ference with United States District
Attorney Charles W. Miller, and later
I the two met John Kirby,- Jr., of Day
-1 ton, Ohio, president of the National
j Association of manufacturers, at the
j home of David M. Parry, a former
; president of that organization.
When asked if he wished the Mc-
Namara trial had preceded, the de-
I tective said:
“There would have been many in
i teresting developments had the trial
■ at Los Angeles continued to the end."
I While here, Burns reiterated his
statement that Samuel Gompers,
| president of the American Federation
' of Labor, knew almost from the begin
ning that the McNamaras were-guilty
: of the charges against them.
ON WRONG TRACK.
Curious Mistake Made by Engineer on
Georgia FJ°ad.
A curious mistake happened to the
Georgia railroad passenger train
which left Macon.
Three miles from the city there is
a junction, where a common track
branches out into four directions, one
going to Savannah, another to An
gusta, another to Athens, and the
fourth being a siding. This train was
bound for Augusta, but somehow or
other the switch was turned wrong,
and it entered upon the Savannah
track, going ten miles before the en
gineer discovered his mistake. He
brought the train to an immediate
stop, and discovered that only a short
distance ahead of him there was an
other train which, if he had contin
ued, he would have met in a headon
collision. The train backed to the
junction and then proceeded to Au
gusta, tin hour late.
A Fatal Mistake.
Exact similarity as to shape, size
end color of bottle containing an iron
tonic and carbolic acid caused M. R.
Emmons, of 794 Peachtree street, At
lanta, Ga., retired capitalist, and one
of Atlanta’s most prominent and high
ly respected citizens, to lake a dose
of the latter, by mistake .Sunday
i night, causing his death soon after.
