Rem0bal of the ]effersonian to Hflanfa.

When The Jeffersonian was established it
had not been decided to undertake the lpubli-
cation of Watsons Jeffersonian Magazine.
Later it seemed to be an absolute necessity
that the magazine should be launched
This being So it becomes advisable, for sew
eral reasons to have them both in the same
place and under the same management
Besides it was thought best to change the
shape of the weekly paper from the large, old
fashioned sheet to the modern magazine size.
This could not be done in Augusta
Consequently The Jeffersonian is now To-
Gated in Atlanta.
All exchanges and correspondents will please
note the change in Our postoffce address.
Hereafter all communications intended for
the weekly paper should be addressed The
Weekly Jeffersonian, Atlanta, Ga Or to Thos
E. Watson, Thomson, Ga. Exchanges of
the weekly should, however, be mailed in all
cases to the Atlanta office, where they will be
needed by Mr.. Chas. J. Bayne, the managing
editor.

Call off the Dogs.

Had it occurred to you that the Trust and
Railroad politicians going through the
huntsman's act blowing the horn to call off the
dogs from the chase?
That's just what is being done.
The Trusts are nervous, and the Railroad
bosses are uneasy.
They feel the ground rocking beneath their
feet.
They know, they know, that things cannot
go on as they are, unless the attention of the
masses can be drawn away to something else
The Railroad bosses who are killing and
mangling about 1900 human beings every
three months, in the mad rush for Dividends
on watered stock are straining every nerve
in the effort to get the United States mixed up
in that Congo muddle, where it is alleged
that King Leopold is butchering negroes who
refuse to work as ordered.
1t is all right for our Railroad Bosses to
MAIN and murder several thousand white
men, white women and white children every
year in the ruthless determination to earn
fraudulent dividends, but all wrong for King
Leopold to murder several thousand black
men, black women and black children in Afri-
ca.
OF course, it is wrong to murder anybody,
white or black, in the United States or in
Africa. But why should J. Pierpont Morgan
put himself at the head of a movement whose

Merely Incidental.

Our War Department is much worried be,-
cause young men are not enlisting.
The authorities marvel at this phenomenon
-sagely wagging the military head The said
authorities cannot understand the thing at
all, but vaguely hint that General Prosperity
Weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-01-10

object is to have our government stop the
atrocities Of. Leopold when Morgan's own
railroads murder more people every month
than King Leopold's men murder in year?
The reason why, is plain.
Morgan hopes to CALL OFF THE
DOGS" He wants Public Opinion, prose-
cutting officers, Grand Juries and indignant
editors to let him alone
Stay the greed of Leopold. Stop that kill
ing of the blacks in Africa By all means
check and chasten Leopold. But don't stay
the greed Of Morgan. Don't stop the awful
killing of the whites by Morgan. On with
THAT, by all means. Morgan MUST have
Dividends from fraudulent issues of stock.
Consequently trainmen must be overwork-
ed, cheap employees must be kept, worn-out
rolling stock and locomotives must be used,
bridges must go unrepaired, rotten cross-tes
must still try to hold the rails, double track
ing cannot be afforded, nor can the automatic
Block system which poor little Switzerland
uses be adopted by the richest nation on earth
Why does Switzerland adopt the automatic
Block system which makes the collisions of
trains an impossibility?
Because the people of Switzerland own
their own railroads and therefore take the
necessary precautions to safeguard their own
lives
THEY THINK MORE OF LIFE AND
LIMB THAN OF DIVIDENDS-HE
THEY HAVE THE BEST SERVICE pos
SIBLE AND THEY KILL NOBODY.
But such monsters as ]. P. Morgan care
more for Dividends than for human life
hence they refuse to spend the money to per-
feet the service. But don't do anything to put
a check on Morgan.
Stop Leopold who is mangling and massa-
cring the negroes away off yonder in Africa
Then there's Foraker! Fire Alarm Foraker
He's the Ohio Senator who stood by his Rail
road Bosses to the last in the Rate Bill fight
He belongs to the Trusts as truly as does
John Dalzell or Aldrich. And what is For
aker doing now?
Trying to raise from the dead the fell spirit
of Sectlonalism! Trying to fan race-hatred
into consuming flames!
Taking the Brownsville affair and the Pres
ident's dismissal of the negro troops as his
hobby he is riding it with grim determine
ton to kick up as much devilment as he pos
sibly can.
And those Southern Senators who take up
Foraker's challenge doing exactly what he
wants them to do. With Foraker as with
Morgan, it is a case of calling off the dogs to
put them on another trail Southern Senators

But is it fascinating to the enlisted fan?
Is the temptation irresistible to become an

Did you read how they shot and killed the
poor fellow who was trying to steal out of

While you were buying Christmas gifts for
children and friends that evening, and while
every member of the family who could possi-
bly, do SO was hurrying home for Christmas,
this poor soldier boy was irresistibly tempted.
To slip out of the barracks, to steal off in
the night, to speed away to the old home, to
burst in upon the loved ones with beamng
face and merry words, to lift the sick mother
in his arms and hug her once more and kiss
the withered cheeks, and help her back to
health with the powerful tonic of love and
joy; to grip the glad old fathers hand, to en-
brace the sweet little sister-all this was in
the poor boys heart and mind, as he slipped
out from the barracks and turned his feet
homeward.

He remembered that the ship was coaling;
that the rules forbade shore-leave while the

Not only denied him, but had him put in

Why did Mcdonald have Hickey put in

Because he did not take McDonald's refusal
to allow him two hours to see his wife and

a much needed Improvement has
been made on the campus in the cut

and this will be appreciated later when
the naples and oaks and elms have
dOnned their crowns Of green. But now
that they have been cut down the stu
dents are discussing the ACCESSIBILITY of
having some day set aside each year for
Inc planting Of trees. This custom is
followed in nearly all of the other COL
legcs and why would it not be a good
orc for Colby to adopt, now that some
of tho trees have got to be replaced 1t
certainly would be a pretty custom for
Colby to adopt and ought to meet with
the approval of every one interested in
the college.
The game Of baseball scheduled to
have been played between Colby and

of the fact that Coburn has had but
