WOULD BE AN ETERNAL
DISGRACE.
From The Jeffersonian.

From The Jeffersonian.
The president declared that he
wanted four more battleships lin the
interest of peace" not of war.
Yet the ink with which he wrote
the words was hardly dry before SEN
ator LOdge-mOuthpiece of the ad-
ministration-was introducing into
the senate a resolution authorizing
the president to send the fleet TO
Venezuela to make a demonstra-
ton" against that feeble state.
Why must we bully our little neigh
Dor by threatening her with our big
battleships?
For the reason that the Venezuelan
president, Castro, busted the Asphalt
Trust. Not only talked about bust
ing trusts, but did it.
The Asphalt Trust is composed of
rich American schemers and swim
dlers, and they contributed nearly
two thousand dollars to finance a
revolt against the Venezuelan gov
eminent. The revolt failed, and the
trust had its property in Venezuela
confiscated.
And now the attorneys of the trust
are trying to get the use of our navy
to scare Venezuela into a restitution
of the confiscated property.
On this subject we believe that Mr..
Roosevelt has been deceived by Elihu
Root, secretary of state and trust
lawyer.
1t will be an eternal disgrace if
congress allows our navy to be used
as a cats-paw for swindling concern
like the Asphalt Trust.

THE REAL THING.

The News endorses every word of
the following tribute by the Balm
bridge Search Light to Joe Hall. He
has done more for the state and the
common people than all of the other
reformers, real and alleged, put to-
gether:
The Savannah Press is inclin-
ed to think that Joe Brown ell
bowed Joe Hill Hall out of the
race for governor this time, as
others have done the same thing
to him before. But in the mean
time Mr. Hall continues along
the even tenor of his way, big
ger man than the governor, or
either of the candidates for that
position.

WHEN PROSPERITY WILL
RETURN.

From the New York World.
The number of idle freight cars,
which was over 100000 during jan
uary and part of February, was re-
duced to 100000 in the middle of
March.
Figures for the beginning of April
show a net surplus of 3O5, 900 cars,
again making an unfavorable read
ing of the commercial and industrial
barometer
People are asking on every hand
when good times will return. There
is an answer in the tables, which
show no further back than last Oc-
tober and November shortages in
stead of a surplus in freight-carry-
ing equipment.
Prosperity will be re-established
when these freight cars are all at
work on the main lines, instead of
standing empty on the side tracks.

We find the following in the Sa-

In commenting on the above The

did not say it, but not anything re-
sembling it has appeared in this
paper. In fact, we have a better
opinion of both of the candidates for
governor than the above estimate of
them. We have no reason to doubt
the genuineness of Governor Smiths
recent conversion to the cause of pro-
hibition, and Mr. Brown has a life
long and undisputed record as a
prohibitionist. We believe that both
candidates can be relied on in this
matter, and that prohibition would
have nothing to fear from either of
them.

THE BEST CHIEF.
That's What Roosevelt Calls Head
of CIeVeland's Police.

Fred Kohler, head of the police of
Cleveland, Ohio, is known as the
golden rule" chief. He was declared
by President Roosevelt not long ago
to be the best chief of police in the
United States. Chief Kohler does not
measure the efficiency of his force by
the number of arrests. He directs his
men to make no arrests unless it
seems necessary-to warn man
transgressing the law if that will be
sufficient for the moment. To dispose
of trivial misdemeanors without ar
rest has been his object. The results
seem to justify his policy, but it has
brought severe criticism as well as
warm praise to him.

JUDGE WILLIAMS HERE

Wilt hAIL r
Judge Frank Williams, formerly a
practicing lawyer of Roswell but now
engaged in promoting a patent rail
road rail coupling invented by his
brother, arrived Saturday night from
Chicago and will spend a month with
old friends in the city, and will prob
ably take a trip to the mountains
while here. Judge Williams is show
ing the model of the patent to his old
friends here and much interest is be-
ing taken in the device, although a
few of the citizens saw the model
when first secured by Mr.. Williams
two Or three years ago. The coupling
provides for the perfect jointure of
the ends of the rails without the use
of bolts and is intended to make such
a joint as will eliminate the "click.
click, click-click" made by the wheels
of cars in passing over the rail
joints. Mr.. Williams has been living
in Pittsburg, Pa, and Chicago since
he left here a year ago. He has just
recovered from a months illness and
has lost considerably in weight.

Cooper's report contained a declara-
tiol in favor Of publicity as to cam
paign funds which vas lost by a vote
of more than 9 to 1, and yet h
President had been advocating legis-
1ation in favor of publicity as to cam
paign contributions, and Secretary
Taft wrote a letter to Mr.. Burrows
advocating the passage of such a
bill. How fortunate it was that Secre-
tary Taft's letter was finally discov-
cred and published. Senator Burrows,
the man to whom the letter was ad-
dressed, was the temporary chairman
of the convention, and the convention
over which he presided turned down
the publicity plank by a vote of 9 to
1; who will deny that on this subject
the Republican party is r~etreating..
Another plank of the LaFollette
| platform authorized the a~scertaining
of the value Of the railroads. This
| plank was lost by a vote of GIT to GO,
nearly Is to 1, and yet President
Roosevelt has advocated this very
proposition. Here is a retreat on the
railroad question.
"The injunction plank adopted is a
retreat from the position taken by
| President Roosevelt and the position
taken by Secretary Taft in speeches,
although neither of them went as far
as they ought to have gone in their
! effort to prevent what is known as
government by injunction. Here is
the third retreat.
"The President has advocated the
income tax as a means Of preventing
swollen fortunes and of equalizi1g
the burdens of government. The Re
publican platform is silent on the
question. Was the President right in
the position he took. II so, the1 the
convention was wrong in not endors
ing him. Will the Republican voters
follow the President in this matter
or will they follow the Republican or
ga1ization in r%etreating from it?
"The President advocated an inner
itance tax, but the Republican con
V6nC1On Is Silent on U1dI question
Was the President the head Of the
Republican party il advocating thi:
reform, or a the party receded from
the Presidents position? Did the

to prevent the enforcement of the
