years upon an apparatus in his mill al
Monticello, although he wrote learn
ed argument to prove that the same
device was used by the Egyptians In
the days of Moses. He denounced lot
teries, yet he appealed to the legisla-
ture Of Virginia to pass law authoriz-
ing the disposal Of his estate by that
method. In reference to slavery he
said: II tremble for my country and
I know that God is just" and yet he
owned 14O slaves and only emancipated
three Of them at his death. He was
constantly admonishing people against
the sin of gambling, yet his account
books show that he frequently won and
lost money on games Of chance.
In his public career, however, Mr.
Jefferson's inconsistencies were usually
for the benefit of mankind. He took
the ground that an official had the right
to use his Judgment in the exercise OF
responsibility when the interests Of the
people demanded it, and in no part of
his public career was this doctrine de-
veloped in such striking manner as
in connection with the annexation OF
Louisiana territory. It was the great
est triumphs of his life, and it seems in
explicable that he did not include it in
his epitaph, which mentions only three

MANY SIDED JEFFERSON.
But the Great Statesman Was Alwaya
Simon Pure Democrat.

Senator Allen, of Nebraska, In his
valedictory speech, declared that he
had heard Thos. Jefferson quoted as
authority on all sides Of all questions
that had been discussed during his
term in the senate, which Is not an ex-
aggeration, as people unfamiliar with
the subject will suppose. He changed
his mind frequently; but there were
few points upon which he never waver-
ed-his adherence Of war, his opposi-
ton to a public debt and his determi-
nation to make the government Of the
United States a pure democracy Of the
people, for the people, by the people.
He was always willing to reverse him.
self or alter his convictions when it was
necessary to promote these doctrines.
Mr.. Jefferson's letters and other pa
pers have been twice published. Once
by the government and more recently
and in much better form by Putnam &
Co., with copious notes and index, and
edited in a most intelligent and satis-
factory manner. They are almost a
library of themselves, as he left over
$4,000 letters on every conceivable sub
ject. The easiest way, however, to as
certain his views on expansion, annex
alton of foreign territory or any par
ticular subject, is to refer to the JEFF
ferson Encyclopedia, ponderous VOL
ume as big as the dictionary, made up
of extracts from his writings by John
P. Foley and arranged in alphabetic
form.
A reference to the volume will show
Mr.. Jefferson's inconsistencies and con-
slant changes of opinion in most re-
markable manner. He wrote as many
proverbs as Solomon; but was equally
negligent in observing them. No man
was ever so quick to learn by expert
ence or so prompt to change his policy
when he considered it wise to do so.
For example, he was the original
Know Nothing. Turn to the subject Of
immigration in the encyclopedia and no.
tice how his views varied with chang
ing conditions. At first he was in fa-
vor of shutting all foreigners out of
the country; next he made an eXcep-
tion to German farmers. who might be
allowed to colonize; but must be kept
by themselves: and finally, after the
annexation of Louisiana, he desired to
open the gates as wide IS possible and
make the United States the home Of all
the free and brave.
In religion he was first an Episco-
palian; then a Presbyterian, and en-
deavored to transfer to Virginia en-
masse the Calvinistic college at Geneva,
Switzerland. That institution and the
Presbyterian University Of Edinburgh
he recommended as the best places for
young man to get an education; he
sent several young Virginians there,
including John Epps, who afterward
married his daughter. Toward the
close of his life he became Unitarian;
but all this time he was vestryman in
the Episcopal church at Charlottes-
vile.
He was opposed to foreign missions,
but contributed to their support; he
was opposed to royalties for the use OF
patents, but paid them regularly for

you'll say the same. She says you
seen Loueesy meet that Melvin out in
my timber"
Sim paused and looked at Sam for a
reply, but the latter stood with his
eyes fixed OH the ground and remained
silent. This was not good sign, and
Sim realized it. Trembling from head
to foot, he drew little nearer to Sam
and in q hoarse whisper said:
Tell me, Sam. is it so?"
Sam looked slowly up and after an
instant's pause said heartily:
Course Mary Mann"
"Ycs, but tell me-" Sim pleaded, sis 1t
so:'
Sam glanced uneasily around.
"Sim," he said, 81 wish you wouldn't
ask me that"
Sims whole form dropped as though
deadly blight had passed over him
In heart wrung tones he cried:
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1901-05-08
7"My God. Sam, you're Eillin me!
Can't you tell me that 1t Is not SOP"
Sam SLOWLY shook his head.

-"My God. Sam, you're Eillin me!
Can't you tell me that it is not SOP"
Sam slowly shook his head.
"I'd give the world, Sim," he replied.
eff could, but thar'd be no use in tell
in you lie."
"Then all them words Mary Mann
spoke are true"
"I don't know bout that. I don't
know what words she spoke"
"She said you seen Loueesy meet that
man in the woods?"
Eyes, that's true"
can that you heard her tell him she
loved him."
"Yes, that's true, too." Sam admitted
reluctantly. Then he added more hope
fully. "But she wouldn't let him tech
her, Sim. an she told him he must 60
way an that they mustn't never see
each other 70 more"
"But she lives him." Sim cried, IAN
she told him so, Oh. my Lord"
"But .h?'s tue to you, Sim, for all
of that n s"''nr she's as true to you
as ever any woman was to her hus'
band"
81 b'lieve that" Sim replied. IAN Id
kill any man that dared to say she
want. Yes. Loueesy's true. No truer
woman ever lived. But she loves that
man. She
Sims voice choked with emotion. and
he could saw no more. Sam came to
him and placed his hand on his sboul'
der.
"Sim," he said kindly, "you just be
patient. Loueesy Is not to blame. for
people can't help their feelin's. You
Jest wait, an that Melvin will soon be
out Of the way, an Loueesy's eyesll
be opened to somethin she don't dream
Of now. Then she'll see her mistake,
an she'll turn to you. Just you be pa
tient, an you'll see I'm right"
In uttering these words Sam Morgan
proved himself more Of prophet than
he knew, and Sim Banks would have
saved himself a world Of suffering if
he had needed them.
"You mean we'll, SAM" Sim said,
"but know my duty. see II all plain
now, an I'll do 1t. no matter what she
cost. won't keep you no longer. Sam.
Goodby."
"Goodby, Sim."
81 thank you. Sam, for your kind
ness" Sim added. Il see how you've
tried to spare me an above all how
you've tried to shield Loueesy. l won't
never forgit It,"
He turned and walked away. Sam
stood still, looking after him, and pres
emily he called to him. Sim stopped and
turned his head wearily around. Sam
said uneasily:
"For Gods sake. Sim. don't do moth.
in rash!'
"I'll do my duty" Sim replied.
His duty-what did that mean? Sam
Morgan thought Of those words often
in the long, weary days that followed.
