Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-08-29

Bryan is nominated by the democrats and Mr.. Wat
son by the populists? From whom are they going
to take their marching orders then?"
And all this sounds very much like some of the
warnings shouted from the housetops in Georgia
last year-but in Georgia Mr. Watson had his way,
and he is today as everybody knows, the master Of
the political situation. And the most hopeful sign
about it his expressed determination to hold the ad
ministraon to its pledges of reformor to know the
reason why!
democracy is confronted today, when Mr.. Watson an
nounces in effect that the time has come for the
substitution of the Ocala platform!
And so we why try to hide thefacts? Why,
ostrich-like shut out from view the inevitable If
somewhat painful sight of party disorganizaton?
In Mississippi the successful leader Of the party
in the national house denounces Watsons political
activity in stirring up dscord in democratic ranks
and repudiates the concerted effort Of former antag
oniss of the party to control party action by going
back to it's ranks for the purpose OF Furnishing those
who have battled for the organization.
In Georgia exactly the opposite policy prevailed
and the people approved. There be doubt
about that!
Therefore, If Mississippi is right, Georgia is
wrong.
If Georgia is right Mississippi is wrong
If we are to have a party the plan outlined
by Mr. Williams then there will have to be some
shifting of positions in Georgia.
If, the other hand the Georgia position holds
as snational policy, then where does it leave the
democratic house leader and the senator-eect from
Mississippi?
In the meantime while all this Is developing Mr.
Watterson is denouncing party organization general
y as "mischievous humbug" And in the light of
the mad riot Of the Macon platform and of the con-
vention which The Macon Telegraph characterized
"orgie," the public will be inclined to think
that Mr.. Watterson is about right!-Atanta Con-
stitution.

WATER COMMITTEE
DRILLING WELLS
The Situation at the WaterwOrks
is Becoming Serious.
THE spRINos ARE OEFIolEN1

II is impossible to Supply the City
With Water for All Purposes, but
It is Hoped With Additional Wells
to Have suhleleney.
( Realizing that the water supply Of
BouIware Springs, which is the
source from which Gainesville gets
its water, IS low and inadequate, the
City Council. through the water com.
mittee, is endeavoring to remedy the
deficiency by sinking wells.
Contractor Lewis, one of the most
competent we'll drillers in the State,
has been working for several days on
ia well at Boulware Springs, and is
making good progress. He has reach.
ed a considerable depth, and expects
good flow when water is finally
reached,
The well now being sunk is six
inches in diameter, and viii make a
good yield when completed. It is I'M
derstood that three wells wig be
drilled, which should be ample to sup
ply the demand, considering the sup
ply being furnished by the flowing
springs.
This work Is being done under the
supervision Of e. E. Cannon, chair
man OF the water committee of the
City Council
