FATAL ACCIDENT.

With Fatal Accident
Seven Miles South of

Last Friday evening about quar-

drowned in ditch near a Great
Northern crossing six miles south
cas-. of the city. She had been
shopping in the city with her
daughter in-law's sister and was
returning home, when on nearing
the crossing she noticed train
coming. She pulled up and awaited
the passing of the train. The horse
became frightened, backed away
and with the buggy and its occu-
pants was precipitated over two
feet embankment into a ditch filled
with water. Particulars of the
accident are not available, as the
young lady who was in the rig
with Mrs. Klatt is seriously injur-
ed and unable to give any account
of it. From the position of Mrs.
Klatt's body when found, and a

if the horse had fallen upon hel
when she fell into the ditch, and
pinned her down under the water
thus causing the unfortunate
lady's death.

Martin believe in charging them q

you as progressive policy or does
it smack of protection to rogues ?

The trouble with the editor of the
Herald seems to be that, like many
others, he is unable to distinguish
between a corporation and trust
The plan proposed by Congress
man Martin does not provide for
the license of a trust, but would re-
quire corporations doing an inter
state business to take out federal
license, and to procure this license
they would have to substantiate he
fact that they were not trusts. This
would place them under the direct
supervision of the federal author
ity, and prevent the formation of a
trust or q monopoly.

Editorial Notes.
By !. D. Watson.

One act of President Roosevelt on Wash
ington's birthday will meet with hearty az
proval of every Southerner. and the condemna-
ton of no fair-mnded Northerner.
The order referred to instructs that the name
of Jefferson Davis be restored to the tablet 81
Cabin John bridge
The tablet bore the name Of the president
and Secretary of War under whose admins
tration the work was begun, as we'll those
under whose administration it was completed.
Mr. Davis was Secretary of War at its be
ginning and his name was SO placed upon the
tablet
In 1862 Secretary of the INTERIOR Caleb
Smith, at the instance Of Galusha Grow. of
Pennsylvania, ordered Mr. Davis name CHS
elled off the tablet, and it was done.
Southerners have always considered this
blot on Mr.. Davis memory, but were never
successful in wping out the blot though we
have had Democratic Presidents and Con
crosses.
Secretary Of War Luke Wright himself a
Confederate veteran, is largely responsible for
the Presidents order, but Roosevelt is the
president who had the courage to issue the
order, and we must give him credit.
Rather peculiar, isn't it. when after forty
seven years, Republican President does JUS
tice to the name Of the late president Of the
Confederacy?

as he was Eventually, no doubt, he win cool
off, and become quite amenable to reason.
AS to Brother Thomson, the prospects for
mutual understanding and harmonious dis
agreement are not SO flattering. When
preacher goes up into the pulpit, as Rev.
Branch did, and denounces Mr. Watson as a
llar there is always hopes for peace and re
concilaton But when parson accuses Mr..
Watson of being mere "tyro in things celes-
tial," as Rev Thomson did, we become des-
pondent.
It's bad enough to be called liar, but to
be called "tyro in things celestial is unpar
liamentary and demoralizing.
Now before going further,-woud it be
asking too much to request Parson Thomson
and others to hold up, until they read what
we have to say this subject of Foreign
Missions, in the April number of the Jeffer-
sonan Magazine? This paper hasn't got roora
enough in it for any extended treatment of
SO large and important topic as that which
has caused the two parsons to jump on It's.
Therefore, we must resort to the magazine,
where we have more elbow ROOM
In the meantime, Mr. Watson begs to say
that he did not mean to make any attack upon
the Methodist Church or the South Georgia
conference The action of the latter body in
simply directed his attention to the general
subject Since then, the Presbyterians have
voted million dollars to foreign missions :;
and, SO far as we know all the evangelical
churches are in the same boat
Mr.. Watson could not attack the Metho-
dist Church in regard to Foreign Missions
without attacking his own denomination, the
Baptist. He honestly fears that all the Prot
estant churches in this particular have gone
far astray from the Biblical teachings, and
that the subsidized Christianity of heather
lands is not worth what it costs.
The Christian courier, Testament i'll hand
preaching the Word to those who have never
heard it, is an inspiring figure. But the sys-
tenn which brides the heather with free hos
pitals commssaries, free board, free books
free tuition, etc, is which almost certainly
leads to disappointing results.
The official records show that in the South
ern States alone there are millions of white
children growing up without education
and without religious training.
OUR APPEAL is FOR THESE!
Let us sweep before door first.
Let feed clothe, educate OUR OWN
CHILDREN, before we do these things for
the heather

This is another sign that the greed of the

amendment is aimed.
This is the same Hartman who offered the
people of Georgia 100000 to let him rob

Texas being much larger state than Geor-
ga, Hartman went to Texas and offered
1000, 900 for the same thing.
Let Texas and Georgia not only repudiate
his offer but run him out Of the states.

3be 7efferson,an

the Jefersonian, to back up what we were say
ing about the injustice of the Tariff.
But there.is nothing peculiar in the case OF
the Peedee Mills. All the big mills when
we'll managed, earn tremendous profits They
are bound to. The laws made with that
end in view When the manufacturer has it
pretty much his own way in the purchase OF
raw cotton, and altogether his way III
selling CLOTH and has native children and
the pauper labor of the world to draw on for
the cheap production of manufactured goods,
why shouldn't he make big money? 1t would
be strange indeed, if he could not catch birds
in his trap when he is allowed full control
over the bait as we'll as the trap. The birds
must go in the trap or starve,-slnce he does
control the bait.
On Jan. ~, 1909 the Union Cotton Manu-
facturers' Company declared dividend of
twenty-five per cent
3. In 1907, the same Mills earned, net, thirty
five per cent.
In 1906, they cleared IS IL per cent.
Even during the panic, those mills did not
lose money. On the contrary, they cleared
six per cent.
Where is there any business, excepting
those enjoying governmental special favors,
that made ANY money in 1908?
How many business men escaped loss?
During the last ten years these Fall River
Mills have paid out cash dividends amounting
to I22 IL per cent, and they have piled up
undivided earnings equalling half the entire
capital invested. Divide this 50 per cent of
profits by ten and we have yearly gain Of
FIVE per cent to be added to the II per
cent of cash dividends Thus you see that
even when you count the panic year, these
manufacturers have cleared seventeen per cent
every year for ten years.
The Peedee Mills is not. by any means, an
isolated case Consider those Griffin Mills,
where they take pound or SO of raw cotton,
manufacture bath-toWel weighing pound,
and sell it, wholesale, for seventy-five cents.
Oh my
And the fun of it is, that these Christian
spinners ship their goods to foreign lands and
sell to the heather cheaper than we can buy.
