The Federal grand jury now in ses-

Ruling On Pearls.

Collectors Of customs have been hav-
ing their own troubles in interpreting
the new tariff law For instance the
board Of general appraisers has called
the attention of the Secretary of the
Treasury to the fact that pearls or
wire are being admitted to this country
at different rates at different ports.
At Providence, r. l., they have been
allowed TO come in as Imitation pre-
cious stones for use IN The manufacture
Of jewelry.' At New York they have
been classified as a manufacture Of
which paste IS the component material
OF chief value.
In a ruling made today the Treasury
Department decides that pearls on wire
are used for jeWelry Purposes, and sub
ject to duty Of sixty per cent ad val

r. F. D. No. A.

r. f. D. No. 4.
Answer: In the State of Georgia
the apportionment of power among
the various counties follows, roughly,
the apportionment Of power among the
States of the Union.
In the Senate of the United States,
each State is the equal of every other
State, no matter how great may be
their difference in size, wealth and
population In the House Of Repre-
sentatives, however, each State is
represented according to population,
and therefore such States as Illinois
and New York have larger delega-
tions and a greater number OF votes
than such States as Georgia, Florida,
Delaware and Rhode Island.
In other words, the Federal system
is a mixed one-the representation
in Congress being based partly on
territory and partly on population.
Now, the trainers Of our State Con-
stitution of 1877 adopted a somewhat
similar plan for Georgia. Representa-
ton in the Legislature is based partly
upon the territorial unit, the county,
and partly on population. The Senate
stands for territorial equality: the
House stands for numerical differ
ences.
But even in the House, full weight
is not given to population. Even
there, the territorial unit Is regarded.
Thus the smallest county in the State,
no matter how small and poor and
numerically weak, has one member
of the House, whereas the largest
county, no matter how large and rich
and populous, has only three members
Therefore, the largest cities in the
State can never exert more than three
times the voting power in the House
that is held by the most insignificant
country county.
This being our system, nominating
conventions were made up in conf0r-
NIFTY thereto. AS each county was
given, in these conventions, double
the vote which it held in the lower
House Of the Legislature, the smallest
county had its two votes while the
biggest county only had siA.
Such has been the practice for 81
years. This way Of apportioning the
power follows the example set by the
Constitution in creating the Legisla-
ture, and it prevents the city rings
and politicians from becoming the.
masters of our political affairs.
When Hoke Smith got in Office in
1906, he and his immediate friends
decided to change the tlme-honored
rule. Not word had been said dur
ing the campaign about the contem-
plated change. There was no COM
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-04-15
6be 5effersonton

plalnC anywhere against the old rule,
and the people did not suspect that
any change was intended.
Not until the Hoke Smith commit
tee published the new rules which
were to govern the primary of June
1908 was it generally known that the
Hoke Smith crowd had decided to
abandon the old rule. Under the new
rule, the nomination was to be decided
by the majority vote, of the whole
State, regardless of the county unit.
reasons:
l opposed these new rules for sew
eral reasons:
l. They deprived the country coun-
ties Of Constitutional rights which
they had enjoyed for 81 years.
2. They put too much power in the
hands Of cit yrings and city manipu-
lators.
3. The people had not been consult
ed about the changes and had not
authorized it.
4. had seen one city (Augusta)
use the Hoke Smith system to stuff
the ballot boxes and to disfranchise
eleven country counties, depriving the
Tenth Congressional District of the
man of its choice for Congress.
did not want to see the Boykin
Wrights of Augusta, Savannah, Macon
and Atlanta, ruling the whole State
IN the same Infamous way.
For these reasons, I fought the new
Hoke Smith rules; and l never rem
dered more valuable service to the
country counties, and to the State at
large, than in contributing to the de-
feat Of that scheme to establish a
despotism of city rings.
AS to the Ocala platform, there
isn't word in it which is inconsistent
with my course in 1907. We Pops
have always contended for the election
of officers by the people, and for the
initiative and referendum, but we have
never contemplated revolution of
methods which in State affairs would
make the city the irresistible ruler of
the country, and which in national
affairs would enable Pennsylvania to
overwhelm the State of Georgia.
The locality, the territorial unit,
should be respected, else there is no
check On distant majorities.
That I was right in predicting what
those new Hoke Smith rules would
have done for Georgia, was proved in
the Missouri Senatorial primary. That
State has the Hoke Smith rule, and
IN the contest between the honest re-
former, Joe Folk, and the corporation
tool, Bill Stone, the reformer lost.
Why9 Because the city rings of st.
Louis and Kansas City preferred
Stone. About two-thirds of the coun-
ties went for Folk, but the two big
cities beat him. Such a thing can not
happen to Us, thanks to the fight we
made on Hoke s new rules.
