Hard Questions for Senator Jones.

Hard Questions for Senator Jones.
The republican state committee Of Ne
vada puts some hard questions TO Senator
Jones of that state who recently an
nounced in a lengthy letter that he had
abandoned the Republican party and
joined the populists. These questions the
senator will find it rather difficult to an.
swer
The committee asks the senator to re
sign II tells him that he was elected as
/ a republican, and while it does not ques-
| tion his right to become a populist, it
does question his right to hold on to his
! Office after severing his connection with
the party that elected him.
The committee criticises his letter Sc
verely. II calls attention particularly to
that part of it in which he says he has
not changed "his principles" The in
ference is that while adherinR to repub-
lcan doctrines he wants 10 be known as
a populist. The committee wants to
know whether by being known as popu-
list his influence in the Senate will be in
creased. 1t desires to be enlightened as
to whether by affiliating with PETER he
will be able to render his constituents
more efficient service than If he had con-
tinued TO affiliate with the republicans.
The committee is unable TO see from
anything the senator says in his letter
why he separated himself from the Re-
publican party Of his state. The Nevada
republicans are just as radical in their
views in behalf of the free coinage of sill
yer as the senator or the populists can
possibly be.
If the senator is guided by a proper
self-respect, he can hardly afford to ignore
the request for his resignation. AS far
as the public now knows, he has ceased
to represent the people of Nevada. He
may think the majority of the people of
that state have become populists. He
doesn't know they have. and he has no
right to assume they have. Nor has he
the right to hold on to his Office,
after having repudiated the party that
gave it TO him, with the view of using it
TO acquire additional political influence.
The senator has always been regarded
as an honest and high-minded public man
If he wants to continue to enjoy that rep
utation he must give up the place he owes
to the republicans, since he has announced
that he has parted company with them.
The populists can hardly feel like giving
him a cordial welcome into their ranks.
He distinctly says he has given up none
of his republican principles. He does not
therefore accept the demands of the pop
ulists Why then does he thrust himself
into the company of populistsl AS far as
the public can see his purpose in doing so
is not one creditable to him.

The Truth Not Always Recognized

The Truth Not Always Recognized.
In an editorial article entitled "The
Right Spirit" the Philadelphia Press
compliments Gov. Tillman for saying that
the English committee. now in this coun-
try TO investigate and denounce lynchings
in the south, is welcome TO visit South
/ Carolina to learn the, facts in respect TO
| lynchings in that state, and that he will
assist it in every way he can, and con-
! dennis Gov. Northen and some other
| southern governors for intimating that
| the English committee is meddling with
something with which it has no concern,
and that it had better attend TO the evils
it can find at home. Does it not seem
strange that in this matter Gov. Tillman
should be put before the country as the
good man earnestly trying to put a stop
to a great evil, while Gov. Northen is
made to appear as the bad man who is
trying to cover up great evil2
AS matter of fact, Gov. Tillman is the
only southern governor who approves
lynchings for the crime which is the
cause of nearly all the lynchiugs in the
south. If we are not mistaken, he has
said that he would lead party to lynch
black brute who had assaulted a white
woman.
On the other hand Gov. Northen and
about all the other southern governors
have taken a firm stand against lynching
for any crime. They insist upon the law
taking its course. They believe in up
holding the courts, and they miss no OPP
portunity to hunt down lynchers and
bring them to justice. The governor of
Tennessee has exerted himself TO the ut
most to bring the Shelby county lynchers
TO justice, and in our dispatches of yester-
day the governor of Arkansas is quoted
as condemning in the strongest terms
these lynchers. The governor of Vir-
ginia is noted for the determined stand
he has taken against lynching and for in
sisting that criminals shall be punt shed
promptly by the courts.
The southern governors who resented
the meddling of the English committee
are the ones who are active in the sup
preston of lynchings. On the other hand,
Gov. Tillman, who approves lynch law in
certain cases, is practically placed before
the public by the republican press as
being the only southern governor who is
doing all that can be done to put an end
to lyuchings. Is this perversion of the
truth due to Gov. Tillman's shrewdness
or to the ignorance of republican news

him more or less popular with the ofioe rs OF

tractive uniform carefully brushed, he was a

his passengers liked him better than they did

fellow to have. He loved the cup that cheers

What the Judges Say.

If what some Of the country papers are
saying expresses the opinions of the peo
| pie In the localities in which they circu
late, there are yet a good many voters
who doubt the necessity of the constitu,
tional amendment increasing the number
of the supreme court judges 1t is diff.
cult to understand, however, how any.
one who has given the subject considera.
tion can entertain such a doubt. There
isn't lawyer in the state who is in DO
sition to express an opinion that is valua-
BILE that does not know that the supreme
| court judges have much more to do than
they can do well. In no other state have
the Judges of the highest courts any
where near as much to do as the judges
of Georgia's supreme court. The MORN
ING News published figures a few days
ago that show that it is utterly impossible
for the judges to write opinions for all
the cases they decide. Indeed, their de-
cisions in many cases must be made hur-
riedly and without that careful examina-
tion Of authorities so essential to the
reaching of correct conclusions.
The judges themselves say they cannot
do good work and get through with all
the cases presented to them In a recent
communication, signed by all of them,
they say:
In reply to the inquiries as to the ne
cesslty for adding Nayo more justices TO
the supreme benclraD Georgia, we state
without reserve that the necessity over
whelming. Our experience ena bles US to
speak advisedly on this subject and we
co 70 oil II, -.
amendment ought to be adopted. 1t is a
matter of vital importance TO all the peo-
pie of this state that it should be done
We know that two more justices will
greatly and materially aid the court in
disposing of it's business. They can
do this In many ways, and their help
will make the work better in every
| respect. The number, FIVE is not too
great. Otner supreme courts have
five, some seven and some even
nine judges. They work harmon
iously, and their work is done
more thoroughly than three could posi-
bly, do it. If we had two more, the pres.
emit members of the bench would work,
perhaps, as long as they do now, but I'M
der less strain, and hence they would do
the work better. Intellectual labor done
by minds tagged and worn out cannot
be OF the best quality. Ii the people un-
derstood the situation as we do, the
amendment would beyond all doubt be
adopted by very large majority.
Here we have the facts very clearly
stated. Neither the facts nor the con-
clusion can be successfully controverted.
Voters who are anxious TO promote the
best interests Of the people of the state
cannot conscientiously vote against in.
creasing the number of the judges Ii
they do their full duty as citizens they
will vote for the amendment.
