WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1914.
The authorities of England, it seems,
have exhausted every expedient to
cure suffragettes of their wicked ways
and all have proven futile. The mili
tants have committed crime after
crime, arson, damage to property, as
sault, etc., and yet no punishment lias
been meted out to them commensur
ate with the offenses. Now the idea
of deportation has been suggested. The
Duchess of Montrose, in a communi
cation to the London Times, suggests
that these criminals be sent to Mauri
tious or St. Helena, and makes the
following incisive comments upon the
plan:
Detention on one of these islands
would have the following advantages:
First, the incentives to martyrdom
and notoriety, which are the strong
est stimulus to the disordered brains
of these demented women, would not
exist there. It would benefit these
hysterical creatures to be removed
from prison and the possibility of
self-inflicted starvation there, and to
be sent for a term of years to a quiet
island, where they might possibly re
cover a sense oi proportion and a
saner outlook on life. Attempte
starvation on board ship could be ob
viated by a short period of forcible
feeding, if found necessary, hut after
arrival at the place of detention they
would be tree to lead an ordinal
life.
voluntary starvation in St. Helena
would offer no attractions, for the
women would he at liberty there. If
they chose to starve, the case would
be treated as anv other sad case of
"suicide during temporary insanity
inus li wouki iacK all tne attractive
delusions of self-imposed heroism
which prompts them to attempt sui
cide in prison.
The Baltimore Sun seems to think
that this will solve the problem. Says
that paper:
kgotism requires an audience. Rol;
the militants of their audience and
they would cease to make their crim
inal displays of egotism. Deportation
of these offenders is a solution of the
problem which occurs instinctively to
almost everyone, upon first - hearin
of the outrages, and in a country like
England, which is not bothered by a
written constitution and can . make
cat-and-mouse law overnight, it ought
not to be difficult to put the idea into
effect. -
So many evidences point to a gen
eral improvement in business condi
tions that the Constiuet:u:i News,
trade magazine of Chicago, publishes
two editorials citing the fact. ' The
unmistakable evidences of a bumper
crop have been generally accepted.
President E. P. Ripley, of the Atchi
son Railway, who has been deploring
business conditions and the outlook
for railways for several months, has
suddenly Decome joyous over the crop
prospect, which promises big business
for the fall and causes and abandon
ment of the intention of his company
, to retrench in expenses.

T Bp for Joe Brown Aikimst
Hoke Sauth.Ta Letter's Friaaii
Glad of It,
Atlantala., July 7. Thomas E.
Walton's announcement that be
would immediately take the stump for
Joseph M. Brown and pour his well
known hot snot into Ivnsior notie
Smith has csused a treat deal of dis
cussion in political circles. Yet,
stranire as it may seem, moat of the
jubilation is coming from Senator
Smith s friends, who say waison
nisv rend the air and ring the welkin
to his heart's content of it plense
him and Mr. Brown.
It is well understood that Mr
Watson, while stumping the state for
Brown, will also lend his eloquence
to the cause of Judge Nat h. Harm,
whom he has already given hear
ty supiHirt. suit will cuss out vt u-
liam J. Harris at every cross roads
where the Watsonian oratory is un
corked. Mr. Watson hates llliani
J. Harris with a hatred almost as
cordial as that the Red-headed p."-
son bestows on Hoke Smith, which
is hating some. So Mr. Watson has
lined up Hoke Smith and William .1.
Harris among the goats while plac
ing Brown aud Judge Nat Harris
aiming the sheep.
It will be remembered that W. J.
Harris told Mr. Watson a short
time ago that none of his support
was desired, taking occasion at the
same time to call Mr. Watson an
enemy of Democracy and stating a
ries of facts to prove it.
And as for Senator Smith, the con-
nsus of editorial opinion aroum
ic state is tnat I lie senator migiii
as well stay on in Washington ami
pay no attention to Joe Brown what
ever. Not one important paper cred
Joe Brown with a ghost of a
how to win. The Augusta Chronich
for many years a bitter enemy of
Senator Smith and still no ardent
over, publishes a long editorial
heartily endorsing Senator Smith
ork in the Senate and saying the
ffort to defeat him is purely spite
ork of enemies who are vindictiv
because of past defeats. A five to
one bet on Smith failed to find a tak
at a well known club yesterday
s for the governor's race, it is the
etieral idea that it lies between the
wo Harrises, with the odds in favor
the Cedartown man.

Cleveland, JuJr ?. "All holiday
on Monday" is (be plan which has
been worked out by J. F. Hatton, an
official of tha Cleveland waterworks
department, llatton would also ar
range the distribution of holidays
to that ther would fall at apprexi-
roaterr mrular intervals instead af
in groups as is now the ease, llat
ton points out that bis plan would
be welcomed by all workers because
ten times each vear it would give
them a short vacation of 2 1-2 day.
Employers would also endorse it he
thinks because a holiday which falls
in the middle of the week hampers
their work.
Washington's birthday nunder the
proposed scheme would fall on the
first Monday after February
Lincoln's day would be transferred
to the first Monday in April. Then
would follow Memorial Day on the
ast Monday in May, Independence
Day the first Monday in July, and
civic day the first Monday in August
Ijihor day would fall on the first
Monday in Septemlier as it does now
Columbus dav on the second Monday
in Octolier and Thanksgiving on the
last in November would complete the
ilst except Christmas and New Years
which Hatton would leave unchang
ed. With the help of progressive as
sociates Hatton will attempt to have
his plan framed into a bill and intro
duced at the next session ot ( on-
gress.

Tbeir moat tclUmr object torn against
rarr initios ha long been that it was
inipoasibta, to grt absolutely pure
Tacrine matter; aotwithntanding tbe
greatest preeaatHXU, such as tbe aar
of calve kept under specially sani
tary conditions, the lympth obtained
would not infrequently contain dele
terious germs. According to the tier-
man Medical Weekly, however, a way
has as last been found for sterilizing'
lymph so thoroughly that its purity-j
csn always be relied upon.
This has been accomplished by
1W. E. Friedberger and Dr. E. Mi
runescu, who have availed themselves
of the well-known principle that the
ultra-violet days of light are destruc
tive to bacterial life. The virus is
put into small tubes of quartz glass,
which are telin exposed to the ultra
violet ray from an electric lamp. In
20 or 30 niiputes there is not a live

Chines Merchant Emulate Amer
icans. San Francisco, July 7. Convinc
ed that the American way of doing
business is the better way, three of
the municipal stores of Hongkong,
acting with Sing Chong & ( ompany,
of San Francisco, have raised $200,-
000 with which to make a clinnge in
the method of doing business with
American manufactures. The three
lloiiirkonir enterprises involved are
Sincoro & Company, the Sun Cora-
nanv and Cheng Kwong & Company.
Since the Chinese revolution liieir
business in American goods, such as
lot lung and shoes has registered an
enormous increase, l ney nave oeeii
buying through agents ot various
American, German and British man
ufacturers, the agents getting a com
mission.
The combination is also planning
to establish branches in New York
and elsewhere, to extend the trade
in the United States in silk, silver
ware, blackwood furniture, embroid
ery, jewelry and porcelain.
Fashion of Eighties is Revived by At

Atlantic Citv, July b. the wasp

Exactly four gowns made in this

looked and wondered and women in

;elves whether this fashion of the
80 's will become generally popular.
Curving in at the normal waist line
most pronounced Ihour-glass fash
ion, this mode of 30 years ago was re.
lvificd with a skirt of the present
era, which seems indicative ot a gi
gantic effort to revive the hoopskirt

Scotland Greets England's Rulers.
Edinburgh, Scot., July 7. King
George and Oueen Marv arrived in
Scotland today fur the second for
mal visit they have made since they
came to the throne. In anticipation
f the royal visit the ancient Scottish
capital has donned gala attire, the
decorations being the most elaborate
that the present general 'on of
Scotchmen has seen.
The King and Queen wi'l spend
but a snort time in &dinhu" m. so
that it is not likely that t.e old
apartments of state in Holyrood Pal
ace will see any revival of the pomp
and ceremonies of which they were
the scenes in the time of Mary, Queen
Scots. It is expected, however, that
visits will be paid to St. Giles' ca
thedral, to the old eastle, where the
Scottish crown jewels are kept, and
to other places or historic interest in
and about Edinburgh.
Their Majesties will spend the
greater part of three days in Glas
gow and its vicinity. The King will
open the new buildings of the royal
infirmary, erected as a memorial to
Queen Victoria, and will also open
the new royal hospital for sick chil
dren. Another day will be spent by
their Majesties in an inspection of
some of the great shipyards on the
Clyde.

Undertaker Convicted and Fined for
Breaking Vital Statistics Law
Koxhoro, July o. the hrst prose
cution and conviction under the new
Vital Statistics Law was made here
today. The .Vital Statistics Depart
ment of the State Board of Health
brouuht charges of violation of the
new law against a local undertaker,
Mr. C. ( . ( ritcher, tor hurymg
bodies withoua a burial permit from
the local registrar and for not tur
nishiiig deatli certificates properly
filled out. The case was tried be
fore Mayor Winsted and the under
taker was convicted and tined $o and
costs.
In explanation the representative
from the Hoard pointed out the value
need and importance of the new law.
He explained that the State Board
of Health was charged with its en
forcement, and that if unenforced
the results obtained would he mis
leading and worse than useless and
the money appropriated for this work
wasted. Thus. far the Board has
tried to deal leniently with the un
dertaker, mid wives, physicians and
others having to do with the enforce
ment of the new law, but it is be-
lliived that ample time has been al-
wed for every one to become ac-
nianted with its provisions, and that
hereafter vigorous action should be
taken with offenders, particularly
malicious offenders. In other words
here is a limit at which "patience
ceases to lie a virtue. in the opin
ion of the Board that limit has been
reached and if a number of other per
sons do not comply with the law other
prosecutions will follow shortly.
