TO NOMINATE PRESIDENTS
1T TAKES GREAT BIG WADS OF
THE "LONG GREEN"
Some Startling Figures of Various
Presidential Campaigns. Hanna
Spent 100000.

Let no one be deceived into be-
lieving that because Taft is the ad-
ministration candidate and the chief
reliance for his nomination is upon
the activities of the federal office
holders there is any great reliance
being placed in those high-sounding
and eloquence- useful words loyalty"
and patriotism" 1t is money which
makes the mare go in republican
politics, and the whole crowd of
manipulators understand that we'll
enough. A Washington dispatch says
it is commonly said there that up to
this time the Taft managers have
been spending more money than
Mark Hanna spent during the whole
campaign for the nomination of Nc
Kinley.
One astutte fgurer says that
the amount used by Hanna for
Mckinley up to the time of the re-
publican convention was 100000.
So far $75O,O0O has been spent on
the Taft boom.
1t is unquestionably true that the
Taft exploiters have been turning
lose barrels of money. They have a
bureau of exploitation in every i'm
portant town in Ohio, and in all the
big cities in this country. They have
men travelling all through the cOun-
try and they are paying good salaries
to these men. They have offices in
Washington, not in one Office build
ing but in several and they have en-
ployed some of the most capable news
paper men at hight salaries. Liter
ature by the yard and by the barrel
and by the boxful has been printed
and circulated, and it is the joke of
the country that this literature is
of various shades of opinion.
In one part of the country Taft is
represented as one thing; in another
part he is represented as another,
according to the apparent prevailing
opinions in the several sections.
Wherever Wall street is dominant in
the political thoughts of the people
and it is believed that Roosevelt has
caused a panic and done all sorts of
things to depress business Taft is
resented as being quite a different
man from Roosevelt. Wherever on
the other hand the Wall street SEN

be is a matter which he must de ter
mine for himself under the circum-
stances that surround him at the time
he deems it necessary to act. | regret
very much that the attorneys in the
several suits against the Southern
Railway Company, which resulted in
its withdrawal of its deposits from
Georgia, felt that it was their duty
to their clients to take this step, that
is, tie up the money in the banks by
summonses of garnishments as meas
ures of protection to their clients. l
believe that it is true that the South
ern has always paid all judgements
which have been obtained against it
and | believe it will continue to pay
them. There may have been some
apprehension in the minds of the at
torneys suing out these attachments
that such action was necessary, in
view of possible financial difficulties
of the Southern Railway Company.
think if they had made a careful in
vestigation, they would have come to
the conclusion that a resort to at
tachment which is a harsh remedy
and in derogation of common right
would not have been found necessary.
All the world knows that there is a
period of business inactivity in the
Pittsburg district greater thanany-
where else in the United States. Du-
ring this great decline in the volume
of moving traffic, the railroads all of
them are in pretty hard lines. The
railway companies are compelled to
do business, that is, they are COM
PEELED to operate their roads, at all
times. and when business falls off,
they are compelled, to adjust them
selves to the Procrustean bed of cir
cumstanes. I do not believe any of
our railroads are going into the
hands of receivers, but l believe all of
them will be compelled to institute
every possible economy of operation
in order to meet obligations that can
not be reduced or postponed"

timent is strong and Roosevelt is still
the hero of the hour it is declared
that Taft is exactly like Roosevelt
and is Roosevelts choice. This kind
of politics is not new; it is as old as
politics, which were born on the same
day. But this is the way the cam
paign is being conducted, and it is
most likely that it will succeed.
An Ohio man who has q store of
information on the subject said the
other day that Mark Hanna spent
$7,00O,000 to defeat Bryan in 1896.
The trusts and banks and Wall street
votaries in every part of the country
contributed to the Hanna fund and
he had plenty of it to spend. 1t may
depended somewhat upon the demo-
cratic candidate as to whether Wall
street will put up much money this
year. 1t will put up all it can to
defeat Bryan, but there is a general
feeling, or at least the republican
politicians have been trying to make
the people believe, that if the repub-
lican candidate is Roosevelt or Taft
Wall street will support Bryan. This
is utter nonsense of course, but be-
cause of the scandals in the last cam
paign and the fact that the people are
hot after having campaign contribu-
tions published and already have ia
ken steps to prevent corporations
from contributing openly and above
board to campaign funds as they did
in 1896 there will not be no large
a fund at the hands of a Taft COM
mittee, unless it gets it in some sur
reptitious way.

The Watchword of Women.

Modesty is woman's watchword.
Whatever threatens her delicate
sense of modesty frightens her. For
this reason many a woman permits
disease of the delicate wOmanly or
gans to become aggravated because
she cannot bring herself to submit
to the ordeal of unpleasant ques-
tiOnings, offensive examinations and
obnoxious local treatments, which
some physicians find necessary.
Doubtless thousands of the women
who have taken advantage of DR..
Pierce's offer of free consultation by
letter have been led to do so by the
escape thus offered from a treatment
repugnant to modesty. Any sick wo-
man may write to Dr. Pierce, Buffa-
10, n. Y, in perfect confidence: all
letters being treated as strictly pri-
vate and sacredly confidential. and
all answers being sent in plain en-
Velopes with no advertising or other
printing upon them. DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription has been long
hailed as a "God-send to women. !"
1t makes weak women strong and
sick women well. 'Favorite Pre-
scription" contains no alcohol. All
its ingredients are printed on every
bottle wrapper

THE SOUTHERN MOVES IT'S CASH

when approached said the reason for
the order is the fact that lawyers in
the state, and particularly in At
lanta, have been harassing the road
bv garnishments and by attachments
on damage suits. He said this prac-
tice has been carried to the point
where the money of the road was
so completely tied up that some OF
the offices were embarrassed in meet
ing their pay rolls; and that this IS
a condition which exists in no other
state in which the road operates.
He says the order has nothing to
do with any legislation, and that any
report to the effect that it is the out
growth of adverse legislation is I'M
true; and that it has been caused
solely by the methods employed by
lawyers of the state.
The state administration has come
to the open defense of the railroad
company, saying that, while unfortu-
nate, it was justified in acting as it
has done. Representative of the ad-
ministration deny that they are in
any way to blame for the circum-
stances.
1t is doubtful if the statement rel
alive to the cases., in which it was
intended to give the names of the
/ lawyers who brought the garnish-
ment proceedings will be given out
1t is reported that the lawyers who

clients claims if sustained by the
courts, are close to the administra-
ton. men who took prominent part in
the last campaign and who are in
| confidence of the leaders now"
In a statement given to the press,
Chairman McLendon of the railroad
commission admits that the railroads
"all of them, are in pretty hard
lines" and that they are compelled
to do business. He does not believe,
however, that any of them are 60
| ing into the hands of the receivers,
but I believe that all of them will be
compelled to institute every possible
economy of operation in order to meet
obligations that cannot be reduced or
postponed"
Chairman McLendon's Statement.
The statement in full is as follows:
There is nothing that I can say,
except express regret, and there is
nothing that I can do, but help to try
and bring back to Georgia these large
deposits of the Southern Railway.
What a lawyers duty to his client may
