ment. This is the evidence all along
the line of all history! The man VINO
shuts both eyes and ears to the les
sons of history and refuses to con-
slider the lessons of history, and goes
on and on in his risky speculation,
supported by no substantial fonnda-
tior. and i'll order to promote his fool
designs he cult1vates rotten politics
and political petticoats," is totally
unfit for legislator; he ought to be
washing dishes with his peers. "Why
lags Georgia behind?" asks Tom
Watson. 1T is because Georgia is
losing character. "Rooseveltism,
Watsonism, Tillmanism" was not in
the majority of her last legislature.
If chat last legislature Of Georgia
was representative body Of that
state, then Georgia is becoming "ef-
feminate" and that virtuous spirit
which repudiated the Yankee school
marm forty odd years ago, right after
the war, vino was sent into their
midst to civillze (?) them, is either
dead, or is dying. That valorous
spirit Of David Crockett, "Be sure

TOM WATSON COMPLAINS
JUSTLY SO.

Why lags Georgia behind? The
regular session of our Legislature did
not give the people what had been
promised them. The anti-lobbying
bill met an ignominious disaster. The
att empt to break up the illegal, con-
nectiCn between the Central and tho
Southern came to grief. No effort
was made to cut down passenger rates
to 2 cents per mile. The other South
ern states either have the 2 cent rate
already, or are after it. Some South
ern states have it. Some Western
states have it. Why shouldn't Geor-
gia have it9-Watson Jeffersonian.
1t is worthy of remark that "pro-
hibitionists" as whole, are dcgener-
ate politicians, seeking to build up
their own political fortunes. Public
duty is discarded by them for
personal policy. Policy is only
another word for dishonesty" The
late session Of the Legislature of
Georgia, a majority of them were a
gang of prohibition politicians. "
This is in evidence: they neglected
the most vital matters of important
legislation and devoted their time,
and their energies, TO building up a
'prohibition-pohtical Was
this not the first instance in the his
tory Of Georgia that woman was in

ing evidence for the purpose Of insti-
tuting legal proceedings. Now. Mr..
Bailey: learning that the attorney
general had just returned from New
York, where he had been getting evi-
dence from the case Of the Standard
on trial there, for the purpose Of
prosecuting the Corsicana Oil Co.,
made this astounding announcement
so that he might lay a predicate for
claiming that he had forced the attor-
ney general to proceed against Stand
ard Oil. That this was his intention
is borne out by speech he made two
days later in which he said, II havo
lashed the attorney general into do
ing his duty"
To Bailey's evident chagrin, the
attorney general very promptly ac-
cepted his tender of evidence and
called upon him to furnish the same.
Bailey hastened to reply that he was
not personally qualified as a witness;
but he cited part of the testimony
Of Fl. Clay Pierce, which was level
oped in the st. Louis hearing last
summer. For Bailey, who says he is
lawyer, to make the assertion that
the testimony he named would mate
rally aid the state is absurd in the
extreme. However, the attorney gem
eral does not seem to be satisfied that
Bailey is not personally qualified as
a witness in Standard Oil matters,
as he says he shall summon him to
appear in such capacity whether he
likes it or not. If Bailey is put on
the witness stand and compelled to
answer questions there will no doubt
be some interesting developments.

Better than this system of unequal

strict enforcement of the cardinal
principle of Democracy-"E Equal

accumulation of colossal fortunes by

give to the private in the ranks Of

Between socialism and monopoly
there is happy mean, and when it

become universal, the problems Of
