DESPICABLE METHODS.

The malicious editorial that appears
in the last issue of the World attack
ing the record of w. D. Lovejoy,
candidate for county attorney and
the present incumbent of the office,
is only characteristic scandal, and
by strictly republican methods in
tended to be issued after an answer
of any kind would be possible. Not
charge made is of the least force,
and is only an attempt to garble
facts for political purposes. In
every case it is evident that the very
best interests of the county were re-
garded and the ends of justice fully
respected. 1t has all the ear marks
of personal malice and should be
treated by all consistent voters with
the contempt aud condemnation il
deserves. Mr.. Lovejoy is and has
been faithful to all duties of the
office, and has tried to be no more
Not prosecutor, not a detective,
simply an honest official, attending
to his duties as laid down by the
law 1t is weak, puerile attempt
to besmirch the record of faithful.
official, and it will be taken fol
what it is worth by intelligent,
thinking voters.
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1902-11-01

Any eleventh hour TRADE against
Attorney Lovejoy or any other can
dldate is unworthy of consideration
by the voters. When there is any.
thing to say against any man, il
should be said in time for him to de-
find himself, and any thing held back
until the last moment, guaged go as
to reach the people just before the
close of a campaign, and without
time for reply, is, on the face of it,
self-condemned as being unstable
and incapable of standing the test of
fair hearing The splendid en-
dorsement of County Attorney Love
joy, by the Stock Growers Associa-
ton, an organization of our best

which the shafts of malice will fall
harmless.

Democratic doctrines are the doc
trlnes which appeal to the common
people as opposed to the republican
political power and wealth into the
hands OF few people in this coun-
try. All who are sympathy with the
democratic position will vote for
local candidates who stand with the
party representing those ideas. The
man who asks you to make him cor
oner should do SO under that political
banner which stands for your welfare
nationally and not for your oppres-
sion in favor of enthroned monopol,
and greed.

A CLEAR BALLOT.

The republicans neither In the
state or county can point to:
One case of notable mismanage-
ment;
One case of incompetency;
One case of dishonesty
One case of neglect of duty;
One case of bribery;
One case of scandal.
All is clear and fair IN state and
county, not man false to his trust,
and if those politicians on the other
side who have no standard of political
morals, tenents of honor, pretend to
magnify insignificant incidents into
things of horror and hold up their
hands in hypocritical acting, it has
not clouded the mind Of the voter,
who can walk up and deposit clear
ballot for the continuation of good
government.
On the democratic county ticket
they cannot point to candidate.
Who is not honest;
Who is of shady reputation;
Who is not qualified for the office
Who is not an honored citizen
Who has ever been tried and
found wanting.
One whose record is not clear, in
public or private.
The democrats have right to ask
Tor your vote and they believe they
will get it.

The World says something about
"Dubois, the Boss. Not that the
World knows anything about Dubois
or any one else In public life in
Idaho, as some might think from it's
long residence and acquaintance
with Idaho affairs, but it simply re-
lterates the mumblings of it's own
bosses under the impression that in
some manner it must be a good
campaign saying. Dubois is a man
whom the republicans hate as much az
they dread because he is honest and
incorruptible and is knocking the
wind out of vile republican policies.
II he is a boss, it can only be by the
consent of the democrats them
selves, and what effect the awful
charge is too have is too deep for the
ordinary mind to conceive, unless il
ls a happy way the republicans have
of avoiding discussion of their own
platform.
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1902-11-01

AS usual the democratic nominees
for the legislature are going over
the county holding public meetings
and telling the people what may be
expected Of them if elected, while
the republican nominees, as usual,
are keeping mum, at least 80 far as
public meetings go. The voters
have a right to know what their rep
resentatives in that body will do and
should support those who come out
openly and express themselves, as
the democrats always do.

to congress, but the democrats have
a platform and are willing to 60 be-
fore the people of the state on
principles publicly expressed and
are not driven to such desperate ends
that they need to utilize methods of
such nature 1t is no wonder the
republican party will be again defeat

as we'll as the minute details are all
subject to their judgment. Such
men as P. P. Dawson, George Will
hams and Charles nj. Rush, the dem
ocratic nominees, are worthy of all
confidence. Look we'll to your

The democratic legislative nominees
are pledged by their state platform tc
vote for law giving women equa
property rights with men. The re-
publican platform is silent and has
no mention of this just and needed
amendment TO the laws. Every
woman is interested in the democrat
ic nominees.
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1902-11-01

The claims of corruption and dis
honest administration that are being
made at the eleventh hour are to be
considered properly as falsehoods, or
otherwise, those making the charges
are fairly open to indictment as ac-
cessories, and are only worthy of
notice as examples of lack of all po-
litical diplomacy.

SUMMARY OF A SUPPLEMENT

A considerable quantity Of Ths|
Misrepresentation and abuse, putt
forth by the republican party, (which
the people have very properly put
out of office in this state) through
the Statesman and other obeMsj
party journals, has been compld)
and printed into a 4-page sheet n
the Statesman office, in Boise, nd
sent out to every republican psNr|

page, and part Of the last is very
comendable from newspaper stand
point as it contains pictures Of the
republican state candidates audpOEf

OF the publication is composed Of
shelf-worn and exploded statement
made in the Statesman and by k
state committee, and which, being Of
no more use in the centers where such
matters are easily and quickly refutsd,
are now being showed out into The
country districts, which that party
always considers gullible, vheyl

some other matters which are sougns

little attention from the opposle

WORK or FOREST FIRE.
Grist Mill and Gin of Col. Winn
Burned in Liberty.

Hinesville. Ca, Feb. 14.-News
reached here yesterday that the great
mill and gin of Col. T. N. Winn had
been totally consumed by fire. 1t seems
from what can be learned that the
building caught from a forest fire
sometime between midnight and day,
and was entirely consumed before any
one was aware of the fact. Had 1t not
been for the precautionary measures
taken a few days before by turpentine
hands in raking around some boxes,
his whole premises would have suf-
fered like fate.
At a preliminary trial held here,
Charlie Sgd, and Calvin Gordon and
Ed Beasly, white, of WalthourVille,
We're bound over to the County Court
under bonds of 500 each, charged with
assault and battery
There is considerable complaint over
the miserable mail service given for
the past six weeks. The trains are from
one to four hours late, and yesterday
no mail from Savannah reached here
at all, on account of failing to make
connections with the Hinesville carrier
at Mcintosh. Is there no remedy fol-
this state of affairs?
A rumor is afloat that there is a
likelihood of the Bell telephone people
who are building their line through this
county, buying out the Mcintosh and
Hinesville telephone line, also the line
running from Hinesville to Lambert
Ga. and connecting the two in Hines
vile. The probabilities are that the
Bell people could purchase both lines
for less than they could construct their
line from Mcintosh to Lambert and
then the revenue from the Hinesville
office wocld pay them handsomely.

TO GET MARINE HOSPITAL
SAVANNAH'S BILL REPORTED FA-
VORABLY BY COMMITTEE.

Chairman Hepburn Made n Fight on
1t. But the Bill Was Ably Cham
Iioned by Representative Adam
son of GeOrgia-Secretary Gage
and Surgeon General Wyman
strongly Recommended 1.-THE
$I5O.OOO.
Washington, Feb. 14.-Savannah' 5
prospects for securing the marine hos
pital building were materially in
creased to-day by favorable report
by the Committee on Interstate Com
raerce on the bill introduced early in
the session by Representative Lester.
airhe bill provides for an appropria-
ton of S150,OOO, for the construction of
aSsbuiIding and the acquiring of such
additional property as may be neces-
sary. There is a proviso for the use
or exchange of any land belonging to
the United States in Savannah not
actually needed for a site.
Chairman Hepburn. a consistent OPP
ponent to all the marine hospital bills
which have been introduced at the
present session. made his usual attack
on the Lester bill and intimated that
so far as he was able he proposed to
stop the general raid being made upon
The treasury for public buildings of
that character. Representative Adam
son, who is a member Of the commit
tee, ably sustained the Savannah
measure and stated that while he was
opposed to an indiscriminate raid upon
the treasury he did not consider it
fair or just to draw the line against
Savannah, which he said was one of
the most important ports in the coun-
try and also the third largest port in
the matter of caring for sick and dis
abled seamen. Mr.. Adamson was rein
forced by a favorable recommendation
from the Secretary of the Treasury,
backed up by strong letter from the
Surgeon General of the Marine Hos
pital Service and petitions from ship
ping interests at Savannah and con-
tiguous territory.
After full discussion of the sub
ject the committee voted to report the
bill favorably to the House and Rep
resentative Adamson was designated
TO prepare the report.

exercises We're concluded, the pro-
gramme was continued by exercises
appropriate to the anniversary of the
founding of the colony at Savannah,
Feb. u, 1888 The movement to APP
propriately celebrate the anniversary
of the birth of the state was originated
by Prof. w. l.. Weber of the chair Of
English. He deemed it fitting that the
young manhood of the state should not
forget that they are the citizens of one
of the original thirteen colonies and one
which though the youngest has Away
been at the fore front of any move
ment which concerned the veal of the
others.
The exercises were largely attended
by citizens of the town, the woman S
club of oxford, which is now making
a study of Georgia history, attending
in body.
The commemoration ceremonies were
opened by the college body singing
My Country, 'Tis of Thee" after
which the Rev. DR.. Shaw read an APP
propriate scripture lesson, followed by
"a ~ ty el III winch ne invoked the
blessings of God on our glorious state
DR.. Bowman then introduced the first
speaker of the morning, Mr.. Hal Hentz
of Savannah, who delivered a declam-
alton on the "Origin of Georgia" Mr..
Hentz showed how so many of Coer-
gas noblest sons had risen from the
most obscure places to take their
places in shaping this country's his
tory. Mr.. A. e. Manning followed with
an original Grafton on the Resources
OF Georgia" He condemned in eloquent
though scathing phrase, the Georgian S
lack of wisdom in paying homage to
King Cotton, when he might live in a
land where there was much gold
yea, much fine gold-a land overlooking
with milk and peaches"
Dr. bowman in his closing remarks
PAID an eloquent tribute to the beau
tiluI city OF Savannah which had stood
through all the years of the history of
the state as an example to the best
OF her younger sister cities.

At Camden, N. j., they were discuss

senator's death this afternoon. said:
He would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone

that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-

betes he already had, resulted in "A
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"

OTHERS HAVE,
WHY SHOULD NOT YOU
MAKE MONEY
ON REAL ESTATE.

There are men who are now buying
real estate in Savannah who, a few
years ago, could not be persuaded to
give respectful hearing to any propo-
sition in which real estate was fac
tor. More money has been made upon
real estate in the last twelve months
than on any other commodity that is
bought and sold. Those who fail to
make money fail because their judg-
ment is deficient They don't trust
themselves or anybody else-"failure
to recognize opportunity" What one
can do others can do also. Follow the
crowd-join the procession.
If you cannot get in a syndicate to
buy ten blocks buy one block, or one
lot for yourself.
Lots are steadily advancing in the
southeastern section. At one time
they were bought fer twenty-five dol
lars each. Steadily they have ad-
vanced beyond two hundred dollars
each. Do you want to participate in
this advance? 1t is your fault if you
do not. Others are doing 1t, why not
you?
Come and let us talk it over.
