IN justice court yesterday a war
rant was issued for the arrest Of Mrs.
Mary Davis on complaint Of Mrs.
Laura Rhoten, the complaint charg.
ing assault and battery. Il seems that
Mrs Rhoten and Mrs Davis have
been on friendly terms. and that Mrs.
Davis had taken a strong liking to
Mrs, Rhoten's grand daughter, little
girl, and liked to have her about as
company. II is further stated that
the little girls grandmothe forbade
her calling upon Mrs. Davis. The
two ladies met in a grocery store on
Bond street yesterday. There we're
pleasant greetings, then words fol-
lowed and finally the question Of the
little girl came up. Finally. il is al
legged, Mrs. Davis struck her neighbor
on the chset, The complaint was soon
made out and warrant issued.

The First compann--

Captain Abercrombie and the other
officers of the First Company are
considering the establishment of a
plan to increase the membership Of
the organization, 1t is proposed to
divide the company into two equal
parts, and then let each half see ii it
can not bring in the most new mem-
bers, The company now has mem
bership OF 81, while it is permitted to
have 7S But it is proposed to secure
100 members if possible, as there is
enough equipment for that number
and there is no real reason why the
company cannot 'contain that quota,
though only rs can be officially ac.
counted for. 1t is desired to have
large number in the organization so
that if losses occur by removals or for
other causes the membership will
still be up to the rs, or above.

Sol Tyson, has paragraph to this effect:
tom Watson has at last found out that
Hoke Smith did not manage things exactly
right when he was Secretary of the Interior
Isn't it strange that Mr.. Watson did not find
some of this out before now, yes before Mr.
Smith made his first race for Governor? But at
that time Tom could see no fault in Hoke and
all the charges at that time that could be

SUBJECT about which he knows SO little.
(The old man hopes that every reader of
TINS article will turn to the 10th chapter OF Mat
thew, and read every word Of it. Let him, in
his mind, compare Gods plan of missionary
work with the methods now in vogue. If the
reader can then lay his hand on his heart and
say the present system conforms to Christ's
commands, we are ready to admit that the IA
natics have hopelessly enslaved the minds Of
our people.)

We freely confess that we were little late

them, Our regret is deep that somebody did

Just the f1le,--not because of our love of
fioke which has never been intemperate) but
because Hoke was making the race on plat
form which we had constructed. We couldn't
go back on your own platform, Sol.
You see, Sol, it was this way: at Mr.. Wat
sons house, the plan of campaign for 1906 was
formed He stated certain conditions under
which he would support a Democrat for Gov
ernor The main one was the disfranchise-
ment of the negro. Pope Brown was the can
dldate we had in mind. He actually entered
the race, upon the platform above mentioned.
Then all at once, Hol1e horned Pope off the
track, took his platform, and began to below

At any rate, he did,-and a mighty hot time
of it he had too
Well, Hol<e held out finely, as roaring re-

Cleveland leaven in him began to work, the

the Senate, in 1908, instead of waiting until he
had carried out the contract to which he owed
his election.
He left off his strenuous reform work: the
anti-lobby bill went to sleep the Primary Elec-
tons law dozed in quiet, the Hoke Smith
Committee adopted new rules that would have
put the country counties at the mercy of the
big cities, and Hoke himself went over to the
Snap early primary after having denounced
it throughout the state in the campaign of
1906
In other words Hoke had changed AS
candidate in 1908, he was altogether different
from what he had been in the campaign of
1906. And because of Hoke's change, Mr.
Watson opposed his reelection, Just as he re-
fused to support his aspirations for the Senate
in that year.
Had Hoke gone straight ahead, and kept
faith, doing the things he was pledged to do,
and making no stealthy effort to rob the coun-
try counties of political rights which they had
enjoyed for 81 years, we would have heartily
supported Hoke for the Senate, provided he
made another flop or two and got right on
the money question, the Trust question and
the public ownership of public utilities
There was every reason to believe that Hoke
would make the necessary flop A man who

be sure that he 1ogro1led with the Northern
raiders, and had to be content with small
slice while they made off with. the joint.
Suppose the Southern men hadnset their
faces against the extravag anee Of tile Roose-

Republicans could have squandered close on
to eight thousand millions of dollars during
the seven years? Never in the world The
Democrats could have arrested this wicked
waste OF the peoples money, had not the Dem
ocrats wanted SO much of it themselves.
Southern statesmen Of the old school did not
practice the 1illman code They made no
raids on the treasury and, therefore they were
free to fight raiders from other sections. Thev
did not steal for their States any more than
they stole for themselves.
The great Robert Toombs, who served so
long in Congress, prided himself upon the fact
that he had never asked for single dollar for
his native state of Georgia Not fettered by
grab-schenes Of his own, he could throw all
OF his strength against the grab-schemes of
others
In those days, there were no pork barrels"
no banding together of corrupt marauders to
loot the treasury.
Mr. Porter says that the North gets larger
appropriations than the South That is true,
but how IS it to be stopped when the Southern
members collide with the Northern men on
the glorious principle announced by Tillman?
Stealth you must-but give me share p Is
that what Southern craftsmanship has come
to?
Mr. Porter asks us to cease to Willy Till

own words, from the Congressional Record,
and commented upon them Vilhcation is,
Perhaps involved but, if so, Tilman vi1ifed
himself
We did not score against the Senator any
point that ought not to have been made
He did not talk that way when he was the
Farmers Alliance candidate for Governor: and
he certainly must realize that his sentiment of,

know which it is.
We have treated Mr.. Roosevelt lust as we
have treated Mr. Tillman: when he did what

he did or said what we thought was wrong, we
condemned him.
That's the only way to run all independent

Hon. Thos. E. Watson, Thomson Ga
Dear Sir:
Enclosed find check for So to continue the JEFF
fersonians. I am very much pleased with them. but
DO not, as 1t seems from the articles of most of
your contributors to your publications. acquesce in
everything you have to say, the stand upon
vital questions which you sometimes take.
Now. Mr.. Watson, to criticize is the easiest thing
In the world for writer to do and think you do
your share of It, and, like most lawyers-whether
Intentional otherwise,--you sometimes make
statements which unguarded and misleading
Please allow me to call your attention to one of
these statements which, in my judgment, is calcu-
lated to delude the mind of those who are not
informed on the subject It appeared in the weekly
Jefersonian Of March 4th in the editorial In which
You denounced Senator Tman for declaring in
the presence of the United States Senate chat if
stealing is to be DONE I want my share of it, AMI
/ do You unfair to Mr.. TilIman and cast
reflection on his constituents when you condemn
Mr. Tillman without informing your readers as to
the cause which brought forth that declaration from
the lips of this typical Southern Senator.
1t on the LIST of March, 1899, while the Senate
had under consideration naval appropriation bill.
Senator Tman, in the interest of the South and of
his State in particular, said, "Ths bill is loaded
down with expansion in every navy-yard. I am
going to steal, I want my share" Mr.. Tillman
further said my main object in all this matter is
to endeavor to get firstcass navy-yard not sta
ton, at eligible point the South Atlantic,
and to have the South receive some recognition in
naval affairs
Mr.. Watson you know the North derives more
benefit from these appropriations than the South.
You further know the North gets just what she
wants, while the South must needs be content with
a very small amount of these appropriations
In conclusion, I hope you will cease to vilfy
of the Tillman type and at the same time cease to
laud men of the Roosevelt type
I encouraging the reading of your litera
ture for think it encourages free thought and free
speech and makes fully realize his
sponsibility as an American citizen
Yours for truth and honesty,
F. N PORTER.
(Answer)
It affords us pleasure to publish the fore
going.
After all, our friend Porter does not advance
the argument much further than Iilman did.
It comes to this: The South must grab and
steal because the North grabs and steals
We don't think much of that kind of moral
ity, and we think still less of that kind of
craftsmanship.
The appropriations mentioned are either
right or wrong; if right, they should not be

P. NJ. Train Wrecked.

The evening train from Port Huron
which should arrive here at 7:17, did
not reach Yale Wednesday night until
close onto eleven o'clock, the cause be-
ing that the train was wrecked when
just this side of Tappan Junction by
break beam dropped on the track
from an afternoon freight, which SO
spread the rails that after the engine
and baggage car had passed safely, the
smoker was derailed and the passenger
coach was completely ditched. Out Of
about 70 passengers in the two coaches
only two were injured although all
were badly shaken and frightened. One
was a travelling man from Il. j. Kruce
& Co., of Detroit, named Edward ID.
Weimann, who had his back badly
wrenched. He was taken back to Port
Huron and placed in the hospital,
where he was reported better the next
day. The other was Mrs. Foster of
Fordwich, Ont, who with her mother
and little girl we're coming to Yale to
visit her uncle, David Graybiel. Her
injury was a sprained ankle. While
huddled all together in the baggage
car after the accident, the passengers
all congratulated each other on so
escaping serious injury or death.
