A New book, bearing the title "The
Life and Times of Thomas Jefferson"
has just been added to the worlds
great library by that master historian,
author and statesman, Thomas E.
Watson, of Georgia. The beautiful
volume is appropriately dedicated to
one Of the greatest young men the
world has produced in a century, in
the following trite language: because
be has consecrated his wealth, talent
and energies to the Improvement Of
the conditions under which the masses
OF our people live; because he has
shown an earnest, fearless and con-
sistent Interest in the cause Of the
weak and oppressed; because he is
today working With splendid ability
along the same lines which Mr.. Jeffer-
son marked out hundred years ago,
dedicate this book to William Ran
dolph Hearst. (Signel) Thomas E.
Watson, Thompson, Georgia, June II,
1903" The Chicago American is pub
lishing Mr.. Watson's new book in
serial form, from day to day, the first
issue appearing on Tuesday, July 7th.
It is one OF the rarest treats OF the
modern day privileges to read history
recorded by so masterful hand as
that of Thomas E. Watson. No other
writer so effectually strips from all
the essential and sailiant points want
ed, that verbage so common In most
writer's, and sets before the reader a
clean, accurate and beautifully delini-
ated record of the man or the time
described. To read after such a his
torian means to at once accept his
statement as accurate and uneolored.
Mr., WatsOn's "Story of France" as
we'll as his "Napolean," are master
pieces, but the advance chapters of
The Life and Times OF Thomas JEFF
fersOn' are positive assurance that
the gifted Georgian is, in this work
discussing his ideal character, in SIM
plicity and candor born of an adnira-
tion akin almost to alteration. It
must be his greatest and prided work
in his historical role.

A candidate for the state senate
from Holmes county gives out as a
part of his platform that he is in favor
of law which will reimburse people
for property stolen from them. For
instance, your horse is stolen or resi-
dence or barn is burned, and the cul-
pret is captured and sent to the peni-
tentiary for a term of years. The
suggestion is to have the state take
the net returns from the labor of that
culprit for the state and reimburse the
man who has been robbed or burned
out. This isn't such a wild suggest
ion, either when you sit down and
figure on it little.
