of The Commoner, that Just now Mr..

course of a long article Mr.. Waiter

scheme to sidetrack Mr. Bryan. in
wE.ah the editor of the Courier Jour-
nal refused to join, was inveighing
against the Courier journal because IL
could not. or did not, agree with Mr..
Bryan. The most offensive thing. the
most hurtful thing which has yet
been said about Mr.. Bryan was deliv-
cred in the recent Democratic state
Convention of Virginia. whose chair

Mr.. Bryan's friends, declared that

Mr.. Watterson says that Mr.. Bryan
himself should take these things 10

that OF a constructive. He is array

THE GOOD GOVERNMENT MOVE
NIENT.

Yesterday the Morning News pub
lished a communication relative to the
good government movement sup
ported by the reform committee
of which Mr.. II. Z. Wilson is
the legal representative. 1t is a very
interesting communication. mainly be-
cause it tells of the beginning and prog
ress of the reform work which has been
going on in this community ever since
Rev. Sam Jones delivered a series of
sermons in the Park Extension.
Everybody knows that the reform
was inaugurated by the Rev. Mr. Jones.
and that the reform committee that was
called into existence through his efforts
has accomplished a great and good
work. II is doubtful IL any considera-
BILE number of Savannah's citizens re-
greet the Rev. Mr.. Jones visit The
evils against which the reform commit
tee has been directing its efforts so
successfully were complained of for
years. but the complaints were unheed-
ed. Nobody seemed willing to take the
lead in a movement to put an end to
them. Now that they no longer exist,
except perhaps to very limited de-
gree, there is no doubt a feeling of
gratitude in the hearts of the vast ma
jority of the city's well-wishers to the
Rev. Mr.. Jones for inaugurating the
reform movement, and to the commit
tee that has so ably sustained, and
is still supporting. IT. There is moth
ing fanatical in the purpose of the
conmitte, and II has no plans for the
future that have not been disclosed
or that are likely to meet with general
opposition.

In most cases such unfortunate per-

The Des Moines Leader (Rep) says:
There is need of Southern white men
themselves organizing for the protec-
ton OF negro labor. Much can be ac-
complished along this line. for the
prejudiced, fire-eatiug, negotiating
elements-and il is a mistake to as
sumo that they are or ever have been
a majority among Southern white men
will be amenabIe to Southern inffu-
ence, whereas Northern influence
serves but to infiame them. The hon
est friendship for the black man which
exists in the South should assert 1T
self and refuse longer to be brow
beaten and overawed by those WHO
attack the negro for no better reasons
than have caused other race persecu-
tons"
(Dem) says: 1T is to be hoped the
difficulty between Emperor William
and Prince Chun. who is in Europe
to apologize to the Emperor on be-
half OF China for the murder of the
German ambassador. will be quickly
and amicably settled. Prince Chun
wants to hit the floor with his head
once on entering the imperial pres
ence. but William insists that he shall
do the trick three times. A little
thing like this ought not to make
trouble between princes.
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says.
The differences between the Demo-
cratic and Populistic parties are fun
damental. One or the other must con-
troll. There can be no alliance be-
tween the two parties except as one
of them shall surrender absolutely its
political opinions and accept those Of
the other. This was proved in 1886
and IL was proved again in 1900.
Everything that has happened since
the late presidential election gives
added weight to this assertion. The
Democratic party must be democratic
or II will become Populistic through
and through"

II is said that Representative Miller
of Muscogee will introduce into the
Legislature this fall, at the request of
Pension Commissioner Lindsey, a bill
providing for the compilation Of
roster of those who served
in the Confederate army from
Georgia. If this bill should be-
come a law it is not improbable that
the pension list will be cut down con-
siderably. Apparently Commissioner
Lindsey is of the opinion that there are
many drawing pensions from the state
whose names ought not to be on the
pension roll. He is working along the
right lines. The people want to pay
pensions only to those who are entitled
to them under the law.

in the potato crop, there are various

do better than to substitute rice for

UNCLE TOMS CABIN.
Col. Henry Watterson Thinks it
Great Work.

GESdI VNOTks
Col. Henry Watterson of Kentucky
does not agree with F. HopkinsOn
Smiths recent assertion that Uncle
Toms Cabin was untruthful pic
ture of slavery days in the south, or
that the book has done and is still
doing harm to the southern people.
When seen at the Waldorf-Astoria
Colonel Watterson said:
"Mr. F. Hopkinson Smith says that
Uncle Toms Cabin did a great deal to
precipitate the war. Uncle Toms
Cabin did undoubtedly make a great
impression upon the susceptibilities
of the people of the United States
and nowhere more than in the south
ern states-who instantly recognized
it's fidelity to truth. But to say that
It cut any figure in the final crisis is
wholly a misconception. Nothing
could have delayed the ultimate trial
of arms more than four years If
Judge Douglas had been elected presi-
dent in 1860 the war between the Sec
tons would have been postponed from
1851 to 1866. Mrs. Stoves novel was
merely spoke in an inexorable wheel.
which for the time being represented
perpetual motion. But so far from
being a cruel attack upon the people
of the south, it was a most kindly rep
resentation. Mrs. Stowe begins with
the sunny side of slavery in Kentucky
and indicates it's possibilities by trav-
ersing the career of Uncle Tom to a
Louisiana plantation. But you will
observe that the william of the book.
Legree, is a Yankee, and that leads
me to say-what, indeed, Abraham
Lincoln preceded me in saying-that
the Yankees brought the niger to
America in their ships and sold him
to the southerners.
Uncle Toms Cabin is one of the
great books Of the world. I am will
ing to bet the author of Colonel Car
ter of Gainesville a cigar that he
never read Uncle Toms Cabin"
leave the decision of the bet to him.
It is this dreadful sensitivity of pro-
vincialism, this astounding ignorance
of the world at large, that has kept
the south in leading strings for hun
dred years. The leaders of the south
not to mention a certain George Wash
ington, but particularly to mention
one Thomas Jefferson, knew slavery to
be abhorrent to manhood, womanhood
and all the graces of human life. The
south is we'll rid of it. Mr. Smith is
wholly mistaken in supposing that the
negro is worse off in freedom than
in slavery. In short and in fine,
while I am not surprised at Mr.. Hop
kinson Smiths verdict about book
of which he cannot know great deal
even if he has read it-he falls into
the prevailing error of the educated
southerner, in supposing that attacks
upon the institution Of African slav-
cry are attacks upon the people of the
south. Mr.. Hopkinson Smith is
great painter; am afraid | must say
great romanticist. Colonel Carter
of Gainesville shocked my sensibili-
ties as a southern man, and particu
larly as a Virginia product, very much
more than did Mrs. Stoves Uncle
Toms Cabin. There never was vet
literary man who was not h-:...Iess
politician. Uncle Toms Cabin was
great book and Mrs. Harriet Beecher
Stowe was great woman" New
