THOSE FOLKS FROM PARIS.

Those people from Paris thought Ho-
nolulu just a wee bit too attractive!
They enjoyed the homes on the hill
Subsequently, the fine marine views
to be seen from their broad lanais.
Some of these homes the Parisians
found specially delightful during the
afternoons, as those celebrated Vudor
Shades from the J. Hopp & Co. furni-

the afternoon sun and the glare of the
sea. Partisan ideas are up-to-date-so

Thomson, Ga.
Dear Sir:
While listening to a conversation be-
tween the Hon. Hoke Smith and several
of his supporters in this city, on last
Thursday afternoon, soon after he had
finished his I-2 hours speech, one of
his most prominent supporters in this
section asked Mr.. Smith this question:
What effect did he think your not be-
ing for him this time would have on his
majority in the election on the 4th of
June? Mr. Smith laughed and said:
"NONE AT ALL, OF COURSE, AS TT
rs ALREADY A WELL-KNOWN
FACT THAT TOM WATSON HAD
LOST HIS FOLLOWING IN GA.
AND THAT HE WOULD AS SOON
THAT HE BE AGAINST HIM AS
FOR HIM, AS HE WOULD NEVER
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE AND
DID NOT CARE A STRAW FOR
WHAT WATSON THOUGHT OR
DID"
At first I did not think that I would
tell you of this at all, but when [ re-
member your grand work for him two
years ago, and noticed his utter disre-
gard for your kindness, felt it my duty
to tell you.

Hon. Thos. E. Watson,

My Dear Sir:
Several people who heard Mr.. Hoke
Smiths speech at Cordele last Tuesday
say, that he was asked 'why you refused
to give him your support" and he replied,
"that he did not know unless you were
angry with him because he refused to
pardon the red-handed murderer, Glover,
of Augusta, Ga," and then he explained,
in very dramatic style, what cold
blooded brutal affair it was, and that
your request was made as a personal ia
vor.
Now, I am satisfied that Mr.. Smith
misrepresented your attitude in connec-
ton with this matter, and as | have pro-
found respect for your sincerity of pur-
pose, I will thank you to let me know if

the Republican Campaign fund.
At another time, they paid $4,000 to
the Republicans and $4,000 to the Dem
ocrats, in New York, to secure protection
from both parties
Protection from what? Protection from
legal molestation while tlley were robbing
ompanies which thew controlled.
Such a chapter in crime, in deliberately
planned thievery as that which is dis
closed bv the manipulation of the New
York traction corporations by Whitney,
Belmont, Ryan, and few lesser thieves
can only be found when we investigate
some of the deals and reorganizations of
J. P. Morgan, George Gould, E. Fl. Harrl-
man and E. c. Morse.
It absolutely reeks with rascality of the
most atrocious and Gigantic kind.
And WHY could it never be checked and
punished?
Because the big rascals bought safety
from the politicians of both the old par
ties.
Is Bryan Catering to the Negro
Vote?
What is the inevitable conclusion to be
drawn from Mr.. Bryan's studied silence
concerning the Brownsville affair?
On every other subject Mr.. Bryan is
voluble, not to say garrulous. But while
the whole country has rung with Browns
vile and the negro troops, for two long
years, not chirp on that subject do we
get from the most talkative man on
earth.
Upon all other matters, Our strenuous
President has had the endorsement of Mr..
Bryan On Brownsville and the dismiss
ed soldiers, the silence of the eloquent
Nebraskan is emphatic.
Every American who can talk or write
has had his shot at the Brownsville is
sue, excepting that particular American
who makes a speciality of talking and
writing about everything
Why this studious and persevering
silence?
The negro leaders have Served no
tice'' on the quaking Republican leaders
that if Roosevelt Or Taft is nominated
the negroes will knife the ticket.
They can only do this by voting the
Democratic ticket. Has Mr. Bryan based
his calculations upon this threatening at
titude of the negroes, and is that the
reason why he has been mum on Browns
Vile?

were small wagon, a writing desk,
and rifle made by them. From this
department we went to the laundry
where we had a chance to see the wash
ing, drying and ironing of clothes by
machinery. Then we went to the boil
er shop. Here we saw boys putting
new fiues in the boiler and repairing it
in different ways. Adjoining the boiler
shop was the tool house where they
make all their own tools from steel.
Now we come to the gymnasium. Here
you could have seen our boys hanging
on the walls, ceiling and all over the
building, and we were certainly enioy-
ing ourselves. While we were resting
ourselves, the guide took the lady teach
ers to the flower house and when they
came back each one had beautiful
white rose and we fellows felt like kick
'ng ourselves for not going with them.
But we thought we would be able to
make up what we lost at the tailor shop
and we certainly did. All the clothes
worn by the inmates of the school are
made here. After the tailor shop came
the bakery where we saw more bread
and cake at one time than we have ever
seen before. From the bakery we went
to the dining room. After the dining
room came the chapel, then the school
rooms, and next one of the bed rooms
which contained II beds. This COM
pleted our trip through the Industrial
school and we started for the depot.
The road seemed to have heightened
and we felt sure that we would never
reach the depot, but finally we did and
were glad when the train started for
home so we could get some rest. The
trip was enjoyed by everyone and we
hope to be able to take another one next
year. RAY KELEHER.
