Cuthbert, Ga.
Editor Jeffersonian:
Jeffersonian just received and was
delighted that you have offered the
women space to write and hope I
will be the first to reply as I am
great admirer of Mr.. Tom Watson s
works. I believe him to be the smart
est man in the United States Cal
though I have never seen him). I
wish him to win the battle, he seems
to be gaining friends, but what do you

Yours truly,
GEORGIA ROSE.

Note: Yes, yours is the Every
first' reply and harbinger, I hope,
of letters from host of other bright
women who will "join in" Don It
dread the waste basket. There isn't
such an article, or even a substitute
for one, in the office. Being of eco
nomical turn of mind, we found the
waste basket one thing we could get
along very nicely without.

We "need" Mr.. Watson for term
and believe if we get him we will

In these days Of Financial folly"
when the idle, silly type of rich wom-
an is wont to discant upon the strin-
gent economy she must practice in or
der to "live" on a million or so a
year and who cannot "dress" upon
less than many hundreds or thousands
Of dollars, it is refreshing to read
the wholesome sartorial conclusions
arrived at by Mrs. E. G. McAllister,
a wealthy widow and a very success
full business woman of Miami, Flor
ida, who says:
"'The sum Of $3.50 a year should
be plenty to clothe any girl, no mat
ter how rich she is, and those who
spend more are wilfully wasting mon
ely.
"Of course where [ come from it
wouldn It take that much, for in Flor
ida one can dress all the year round
in simple dimities. There isn't
woman in the world who likes bet
ter than I do to see a girl we'll
dressed, but by that I do not mean
deliberately gowned. Simplicity
should be the keynote Of every wom-
ans dress, for frills merely detract
from pretty face and makes an
ugly face look homelier..
"One every day suit and hat,
Sunday suit and hat, simple even
ing gown for winter, three little lawn
dresses for summer, four shirt waists
and a dark linen skirt and three pair
of pretty shoes are ample for any
girl, no matter in what station Of
life, for with those clothes she would
always be neat and clean, and, above
all, simply attired. The entire outfit
should not cost over $250-and I con-
slider THAT mighty large sum to
spend on clothes. "
Two hundred and fifty dollars is a
mighty big sum to the average fam
ily and where the means are very
limited, or if there are several daugh-
tiers, the allowance must be very
much smaller. But there's no OBJ
lection to it as the maximum sum, and
to be governed thereby would assur-
eddy promote simpler and altogether
better standards Of dress among all
classes of women.

Religious Editors.

We have the testimony Of Edit
Tor Caldwell that ''it is awful wear-
Jog and tearing on the man who
tries TO be religious and edit q pr
per at the same time." That's
why we admire the press Of Flor
ida. Jacksonville Times Union.
The editors Of Florida newspa-
pers are moi howling hypocrites.
They do not shout in church on
Sunday and rob their neighbors on
Monday There Is nothing Of the
l'harisee IN them. While they
have as many trials and proyoca-
tions as other men, If not more,
nearly all Of them are quiet, unas-
suming, consistent Christian gen.
tlemen. Most Of them are mem-
bers Of the church; and those who
are notmembers, give their moral
support to the cause Of Chris
tianity,
All Of them believe 10 practical
Christianity and teach it in their
papers. AN are devoted TO the
moral up-building Of thqcommun-
tiles in which they reside. While
some Of them may not be regular
attendants at church, no minister
Of the gospel in any place in Flor
ida can justly complain that he
kIocs not receive the moral support
of the local newspapers. Indeed,
the preacher and the editor in
this State are co-workers for the
moral uplift Of The community;
and as the latter speaks to more
people than The former can reach,
it is TO be presumed that he ac-
compIishes at least an equal
amount Of good.
The editor does not wear his re-
ligion on his sleeve or in the cut
Of his coat and collar, but he has
it, nevertheless, even though he
may sin at times, as other Chris
tians do. He is inclined to jest
about his piey, as Brother Cald-
we'll does, but it Is only jest after
all.
Religions asnecessary TO success
in the newspaper business as in
any other calling, Of which fact
thc Times-U Union justly claims to
|bea brilliant illustration. Indeed, it

BARBARIsM NOT EXTINCT.

The code daello has cost the south
another warm advocate, Democracy
one of her strongest men and the ma
ton patriot. We had thought the
time was past when men were killed
over differences OF opinion. The
murder indicates that we have not
yet outgrown ,barbaric instincts. Two
noble red men might have met in a
forest path. as Carmack and Cooper
met on the street of Nashville. Tenn,
and one of them would have remained
there with a barbed shaft sticking up
from his heart.
What a pity a man Ike Ed Car
mack should be made the victim of so
senseless a crime Great men should
be teaching by example lessons in
peace and good citizenship. instead of
"toting pistols" contrary to the law,
and hunting each other about the
streets of city like savages in the
jungle. How many other lives In
the next generation will contribute TO
the cost OF that deadly hate. which
possessed the hearts of two prominent
men? How many youths Will thrill
az the splendid savagery Of their reck-
less courage and wholly miss the folly
of the crime? We do not live unto
ourselves; we cannot die unto our
selves.
Ed Carmack was a brilliant PUBLIC
figure. HIS fiery temper and tenn
pestuous partisanship interfereG with
his usefulness TO his country and
counteracted his influence, but his
honesty was recognized by his co..
leagues in the senate and BY the
country, and his blade was feared in
debate. for he never hesitated "a
pierce a foeman's armOr, where he
found a weakness.
Hating the president as only Car
mack. who takes political differences
personally can hate the last conspic-
uods performance of the Tennesseean
in the senate was to rout Tillman and
Foraker, who from their respective
points OF view attacked the president
on account Of the Brownsville AFFAIR
and he made the two the laughing
stock of the country for a day.
Defeated by Bob Taylor for re-
nomination, he opposed Governor
Patterson in the primary, but the In
fiuences behind the Memphis ma
chine candidate carried him to VIC
tory by a few. thousand votes. Car
mack then started the Nashville Ten
'nesseean and he has been thorn In
the flesh OF the state administration
ever since.

Is a text for iitt.e sermon on TEN

every sickly young man and woman
In the land. There are many ceptu-I

larly temperance and good cheer. has
better chances OF long ,ife than the
healthy child whose good constitution
leads him TO excess. This Is true Of
consumptlves as wen as other weak
lings. Post-mortem examinations
show that an enormously large per-
centage OF Individuals who die at adj
vanced age OF other diseases have had
tuberculosis at some period OF their
life, but that the disease was cured
or arrested and the person AFFLICTED

OF the Woods far to the northwest.
Some claim. indeed, came from the
character grants to Virginia and other
colonies. despite the destructive ef-
fects of such legislation as the Que
bee act.
But IL was George Rogers Clark
who made possession more certain by
military movement during the pro-
gress Of the war. Hurrying to the
old French town of Kaskaskia. he en-
tered the Illinois territory at the
mouth of Fort Massac creek.
That is why the Illinois legislature
made an appropriation for the restor-
alton and permanent preservation OF
old Fort MassAc. That is why this
historic spot has now become a state
park.
To the Daughters Of the American
Revolution Illinois and the western
country are indebted for the interest
in this reminder OF the war which
made the United states a nation.
The first American flag ever un'
furlei in Illinois most probably waved
there. Whether that be taken "a
true or not. the revolutionary associa.
tions of the place are undoubted.
On Nov. 8, with appropriate cere'
mony. in the presence Of the Cover
nor of Illinois, a monument to CLARK
was unveiled. 1t stands upon a con.
spicuous eminence commanding .
wide stretch of the Ohio river valley
Its silent influence towards patriotic
citizenship cannot be estimated as the
years pass BY.
The older states, rich in their his
tOric localities, have become accus
toned to this sort OF a thing. Il q

state Of Illinois has done It's part IL

tral basin Of the country.
