TELLS THEM SOMETHING.

Roosevelt is brick, couple of
bricks, or any amount of bricks, when
it comes to saying things
Like the twice-defeated Bryan, he
won't keep still, and therefore the
gambling corporations and trusts nave
had their feelings injured once more.
Not content with fighting them i'll
the courts, assessing fines and impris-
onment on their officials, Roosevelt
takes his pen in hand, Il la the
country correspondent, and attacks
them in the literary field with spec
ial messase to congress, which is full
of vitriol and thoroughly characteristic
of great president.
This is what he says:
That he is waging campaign
against privilege-a campaign of the
masses against the classes
He denounces the continual use OF
the injunction to prevent labor unions
from winning over unreasonable en-
ployers
He demands just law and one that
will hold, to make every employer re-
sponsible for injury done to work
man in his work, unless he willfully
Injuries himself
He urges strong antitrust laws, and
that only good and lawful combina-
lions of capital shall be allowed to ex-
ist.
He demands that over-capitalization
and watered stock be stopped imme-
diately and that gambling in market
with goods you have not got be given
its quietus, even if it is necessary to
refuse the parties in such business the
use of the mails, the telephone and the
telegraph.
And, he thunders out, that the pan,
ic' which harnesses the country was
started by the very men against whom
he (Roosevelt) has been waging wal
for business honesty, by way OF repris-
al.
As he concludes his message he says,
"Fondly do we hope, fervently dc
we pray that this mighty scourge may
speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills
that it continue until all the wealth
piled by the bondsmens' $50 years OF
unrequited toll shall be sunk, and I'M
til every drop of blood drawn with the
lash shall be paid by another drawn
with the sword, as was said 5000 years
ago, so still it must be said: 1.-The
judgments Of the Lord are true anC
righteous altogether F"
with malice toward none; will
charity for all; with firmness in thu
right, as God gives us to see the right
let us strive on to finish the work W.
are in.
In the work we of this generation
are in, there is, thanks be to the Al
mighty, no danger of bloodshed, ant
no use for the sword; but there /
grave need of those stern qualitie
shown alike by the men of the NORTH
and the men of the South in the darl
days when each valiantly battled fo
the right as it was given each to SCI
the right. Their spirit should be on
spirit as we strive to bring nearer thu
day when greed and trickery and Gun
ming shall be trampled under feet b.
those who fight for the righteousness
that exalteth a nation"

If Tracy City miners are to be
bounded out of their work unmerci-
fully, especially during these hard
times, Just because they belong to the
U. NJ. W. Of A, we advise them and
all their sympathizers to get out OF
those mines and stay out of them I'M
til they are asked to come back The
News likes fair play, and don't like
the bounding idea. American citizens
have a right to belong to any order
they want, provided they behave them
selves, and we notice no charge is
made against the Tracy miners other
wise. If man can't dig coal in a
mine because he belongs to the U M.
w. of A, the grandest thing for him,
he had better get out of that mine,
and stay out.

The temperance movement In this
state this year means prohibition for
the entire state. No manufacture or
sale of liquor in the state anywhere.
We are heartily in favor of this. No
man who is in favor of the manufact-
ure of whiskey in this state need APP
ply for a seat in the legislature from
this county, for we cannot support
him in any way. The man who repre-
sents this county must not be afflicted
with the faint of rum, and must go
pledged to vote against the rummies
on every occasion.

His Dog Identified Him.

Bank clerks naturally and neces-
sarily require satisfactory identifica-
ton of persons who ask to have
checks cashed. The same rule is
followed in the post office by clerks
who cash money orders; but what
the nature of the Identification will
be, and by whom, is a matter which
rests to some extent in the discretion
of the clerk. The Boston Herald tells
story in which a dog bore witness
to his masters identity.
A Boston business man called at
the postal order department the other
day to get an order cashed, but the
clerk in attendance had only recently
been appointed. He said the caller
would have to be identified before
payment could be made.
why, have had hundreds of or
ders cashed here" he replied, with a
show Of impatience. "Isn't there
some one here who knows me?"
I'm the only one on duty just
now. The others are out to lunch
con-" said the clerk.
"Will you take the inscription on
my dogs collar as sufficient identifl-
cation?" was asked.
Yes, that will be acceptable"
The man whistler for his terrier,
and taking him in his arms, boost
ed' him up to the window. The
clerk read the name and address on
the collar and paid the order.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Nov. 30.-Ed-
ltor keowee Courier: Since | left
South Carolina | have visited many
points in Georgia. One of the first
points l visited was Tallulah Falls,
which was very interesting to me. |
spent few days in Gainesville also,
which appears to be thriving town.
! found the people all clever and nice
to me. | went from there across
Lumpkin county into Dawson county,
where | visited relatives for several
days. During the time | was there
my cousin drove with me down the
Ettawa river, where we viewed the
excellent farms along that stream. |
then went to the ottawa gold mines,
the operation Of which was very in
tereStlng indeed to me. | saw them
washing the mud out CT the banks
with their wonderful water power. I
spent one day at Jacksonville, which
Is the county seat OF Dawson county.
1t Is only small town, but looks as
though 1t Is healthy place, being on
high ridge. The day before | left
that section | visited an old camp
ground, where the people gather and
hold their camp meetings. This
was Of no little interest to me, as I
had never visited place of the kind
before.
My next stop was in Atlanta, where
| found many points of interest to
me. After spending a few days in
that city | came to Chattanooga, and
| have now been here for a little over
three weeks. | find this a very in
teresting place. The next day after
came here | walked out to the Ten
nessee river, which is quite a large
stream here. The bridge over which
| crossed is but few feet less than
half mile in length. While walk
ing along the river bank | saw sew
eral boats gliding gracefully along
some OF them occupied by families,
who make ther homes on the river in
these, house boats. Not many Oconee
people, / suppose, would like homes
of that kind. The most interesting
thing, however, that have seen here
is the glass works. | watched them
making bottles-all sizes, from the
big gallon ones down to the tiny lit
tie fellows that remind one of drug
store. l also visited the iron foundry
and watched the process of pouring
the molten metal into molds, making
