Death of Paul Bane.

II Is with sorrow that we are call
ed upon to chronicle the death or
n of our most promising young
men, Paul Bane, son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
James Bane, who passed away Friday
afternoon, June Is, at the home of
his uncle at Colfax, Wash. The sad
news was received by telegram Friday
evening and to add to the sadness OF
the occasion, the father was absent
from home, having gone to New Mex
leo. from where he had planned to
GO to Washington to see his son.
Mr.. Bane was located Saturday and
fastened home, arriving Monday noon.
Paul was one of a family of eight
children and is survived by four
heartbroken sisters and two brothers,
besides his loving parents and a host
OF relatives and friends. The deceas-
ed was twenty-one years Of age last
December and was born and raised
In this community. His death result
ed from a few days illness with pneu-
monia. The remains reached Elkton
Tuesday evening mt $3.50. where the
sorrowing family awaited them and
the funei al was held from that place
Wednesday morning at ten o'clock and
he was at his request, laid at rest In
the Catholic cemetery. Paul was a
general favorite and will be missed
by all. The entire community extend
their deepest and heartfelt sympathy
to the grief-stricken family. To
pause awhile, when such a young life
goes out, TO mourn over broken ties
and vanquished hopes; to lament our
loneliness for such a noble character
Is necessary for the best and tender
est feelings of u nature; yet 1t Is
also our duty to take up the lessons
Of a finished life. for we die IS well
as live for each other. Farewell.

Hon. Thos. E. Watson, Thomson, Ga.
Dear Mr.. Watson: I read in your
Jeffersonian of December 3rd a piece
headed, Remember the Old Folks"
[ enjoyed reading it very much; SO
timely, and appropriate, so true. I
always enjoy your writings, and es-
pecially when you write on such sub
jects. l earnestly wish you would
write more on such themes, subjects
that appeal to the sympathy of men.
Apply less blisters and more poultices,
and you will be loved more by the good
Christian people of our grand old
country.
Mr.. Watson, don't understand me
to be criticising your writing, for l
am not. You are man that I esteem
above all public men. I have an adj
miration for you that will linger with

W. D. WELLS.

To the Populists Of Laurens County.
The power to corrupt by hate is
now fixed principle Of the Hamil-
tonian Democracy Of the South. The
law-making power and the courts are
in their hands. They control the
voting, and the elections must go their
way, though you poll two to their one.
The broad field of the South is their
plantation by mortgage. The South
ern people are their laborers. No
laws can be made without their con-
sent, none can be enforced without
their consent.
The prices of all things are fixed by
them, what you buy, and what you
sell. This was the intended doom for
the South, by the leaders of the war
OF the North upon the South in 1861
IS in case they should be able to over
throw the American liberties, which
they succeeded in doing, and set up
an imperial government over the once
sovereign States Of the old Republic.
Now we say to you that, at an early
date probably, there will be a
mass meeting called of more than ex-
traordinary interest, and from now
until then rest upon your oars of
honor, and be sure to meet on that
day.

WANTS UNITED REFORM
PARTY.

Abba, Iowa, Nov. 26, 1908.
Dear Mr.. Watson: All other po-
litical parties copied largely from the
Peoples Party platform this year,
and it is consoling to know these
facts. 1t certainly is lack Of intelli-
gence to maintain and keep up four
or five separate reform organiza-
lions, there is no more sense in keep
ing up SO many organizations than
there is in having four or five wheels
to a wheelbarrow, when one united
organization could do great good and
accomplish something for the COM
mon people now. United we stand,
divided we fall.
I can see no reason why we should
not try to perfect a strong, united
political party, taking as basis the
initiative, referendum and recall,
with postal savings banks and public
ownership of public utilities, as it's
platform.
All reform factions could unite
upon such a platform, then when in
power they could add other neces-
sary reform measures.
Respectfully,
j. r. NORMAN,
Populist State Chairman.

UNFAIR DEALING IN ARKAN-
SAS.

Hope, Ark, Nov. 16, 1903.
My Dear Mr.. Watson: Not word
has been said in any of the papers
about anybody's receiving a vote,
except Bryan and Taft, and to my
own personal knowledge there were
several hundred votes cast in this,
Hampstead county, for the Hon. T.
E. Watson.
We managed to get out an cleo
toral ticket with two electors on it.
the Hon. A. W. Files, of Little Rock,
and Mr.. III. N. Segler, of White
county. It is fact, under our pres
ent system Of balloting there is no
possible chance of ever having an
other fair election in this county or
the State. When the judges Of the
election are disposed to perpetrate
fraud, it is not only practiced in the
general election, but it is practieed
in our Democratic primaries to a
shameful degree.
The question is, how much longer
will the people tolerate it?
Respectfully,

MONEY QUESTION PARAMOUNT.
Abel. Ga. Nov. 5. 1908.

Abel, Ga, Nov. 5, 1908.
Gentlemen: [ feel that the cause
of the farmer, his relief from the OPP
preston he now suffers, his future
freedom or slavery, is almost wholly
dependent on such works as The
Jeffersonians and such men as Thos.
E. Watson.
There is no Watson club here, and
| hardly think one could be success
fully organized. | believe the best
work we can do here for the next
two years will be to push the money
question before the Farmers Union.
AS a member of the Farmers Union,
| have found that this is the one
question of legislation that appeals
most to them-the great rank and
file. They can see into this some
what, and are beginning to realize
that they are powerless to demand
and obtain any definite living price
for their produce so long as our Ma
tional Government by act of law
gives to one exclusive class (national
bankers) a monopoly on money and
the power. to "corner" it. Let us
either fight the national banks and
demand that the government take

THE JEFFERSONIAN MAGA-
ZINE AS A CHRISTMAS
GIFT.

Springfield, Mo-, Dec. 81, 1908.
Mr.. Thomas E. Watson, Atlanta, Ca
Dear Friend: We have read your
publications so long and valued them
so highly that we think we can send
no finer Christmas gifts to our two
boys than your fine Magazine for a
year; they will appreciate them as
the best they could receive from
father and mother. They are both
great readers and deep thinkers, and
want to learn what is best for them
selves and their fellow man. Allow
me to compliment you upon your
speech of acceptance last summer;
it surpassed any | ever read in my
life; and / have been reading them
for thirty-five years, have many good
speeches on file, but yours beats
them all-will keep it long as [ live
Times are frightening up little
here now. The fool people will con-
tinue to vote the old party tickets;
then whine about hard times. I tell
them they have it in their power to
make it better if they would; but
they show more ignorance in that
than in anything else.
One of the greatest desires Of my
life is to see you President of this
grand United States. My happiness
would be complete, my children s fu-
ture would be assured, then. They are
we'll educated and good, steady young
men, and their success lies in doing
and voting right; for which I have
taught them.
[ send you Christmas greeting;
peace on earth, good will to men.
May your life be spared for many
a Christmas to come; for the good
you are doing by your able pen.
| will close with the best wishes of
your true friends,

Pay Up.-The collector of the

subscribers to the fund for the team
the past day or so. but reports rather
discouraging results so far. 1t is
the desire of the board of directors of
the club that all who have subscribed
to the fund for the maintenance of
the team for this season should be
prompt in paying the amounts which
they agreed to pay. As the collector
charges nothing for his services, it is
asking a little too much of him to
request him to call again, and then
maybe another agin," as in this man
ner it requires too much of his time
