Easter collection increased the endowment by 1,50O. The members of the church attribute this gratifying condition largely to the energy of the new rector, William B. Stoskopf, and his salary was increased as an indica- tion of the general appreciation of his work The following officers were chosen: Senior warden, Robert E. De Forest; junior warden, George c.

The Best
 Spring Medicine
It is as easy to prove that Hoods Sarsaparilla is the best spring medicine as it is to say it.

Spring Ailments are blood ailments that is,- they arise from an impure impoverished, devitalized condition of the blood; and Hoods Sarsaparilla purifies, enriches and revitalizes the blood as no other medicine does. : It is the most effective of all blood medicines.
 There is Solid Foundation for this claim, in the more than 10000 testi- monials of radical and permanent cures by this medicine, received in two years, this record being unpar- alleled in medical history.

ROOsebeIfs Place In History

troll the volume of our circulating
money is a government function, too
dangerous, and too far-reaching to
safely delegate it unreservedly, as
this law did, to any class of citizens.
Thus we see the messages, sermons
and speeches of the President brim-
full Of high ideals in governmental
legislation, and proper restrictions
upon the rich and powerful, but most
of his official acts have been direct
contradiction to those high ideals, in
fact he has enlarged the power of the
trusts and corporations, and would
further enlarge that power by urging
the repeal of the most important fea-
lures of the Sherman antitrust law.
Through asset currency legislation he
has made it possible for the rich and
powerful to exact more tribute from
the masses whenever they see fit to
turn the screws.
In fact, the contradictions between
the President sermons and his off
cial acts are so clearly manifested,
that if he should disappear from pub
lie life after next March, the I'M
biased historian would be compelled
to say that: Theodore Roosevelt,
twenty-sixth President Of the United
States, was chiefly noted for his ideal
sermons to the masses, while officially
acting for the classes.

USUAL FRAUD PRACTICED.
Crawfordville, GA.


My Dear Mr.. Watson: [ want to
say to you that, as usual, fraud was
practiced at our last election. | at
first was astounded at the amount Of
votes cast for the Populist candidate,
but when [ learned Of the fraudulent
methods used that accounts for it~all.
My precinct went solid for you with
the exception Of one man, but an adj
joining precinct that had nothing but
Democratic managers did some dirty
work. Two Pops came in early that
morning to vote. They called for
Populist tickets. The managers told
them they had none; that they had
only two tickets, Democratic and
an Independent. But that did not
satisfy the boys. So they still de-
manded Populist ticket. Finally
some were brought out. They voted
and went away. And later in the day
came three others and demanded
Populist tickets. They were told the
same story over. We have but two
tickets. So they got no Populist
ticket at all and went away.
1t does look like there ought to be
way to punish such rascals. I think
at least they should be exposed.
Your most sincere friend,

the vote was very small, Watson q,
Taft 13 and Bryan 10, and the Taft
vote was really yours, as the people

elected lot Of people voted for Taft.
One of my neighbors, Mr.. Joe F. Hol-
brook, says he is sure you got the the
cream of Georgia.
Well, as have been following after
you for the last twenty years, [ am
proud to know that you are leading
the balancing power of the State, and
| hope to see you holding all the
power in the near future. I am one
of the many that knows we could get
reform through you as leader (and
you only, and you will always find
me ready to shout for Watson. I
think we need organization. If we
were organized | think we would rule
some day. | have heard lot Of men
say they thought you were the only
one that offered any reform at all.
In conclusion, will say that | great
ly enjoyed your editorial in The
Jeffersonian the first issue after the
election. [ have loaned my paper to
several. With best wishes to you.

ONE MORE OF THE OLD GUARD
GONE.

Gilbert Williams, Of Salem, ILL.,,
passed away on the Goth Of Deem
Der. He grew up in Marion
county, Illinois. He was one Of the
leaders of the Peoples Party. He
was known throughout Illinois, being
in the reform movement since the
days of Peter Cooper. He was a man
that kept posted OH the issues Of the
day; he was always on the side of the
people. He was about sixty-seven
years old, and was one Of the boys to
enlist in the war of the sixties in
General Grants regiment and served
until the close of the war
In the death of Brother Williams
we have lost good citizen and neigh
Dor, and the family have lost kind
husband and father. He leaves
widow and eight children, FIVE sons
and three daughters, all of them be-
ing grown. The funeral was today,

his present term of office expires,
what place would he occupy IN the
future history of our country?
Hero worshippers, who usually
form conclusions without any regard
to existing facts, and who now look
upon Roosevelt as demigod, would
no doubt give him very high place.
But the blind hero worshippers of
Roosevelt are not so numerous as
they were year or SO ago; many
have begun to analyze the real Roose-
welt, to compare his public utterances
with his official acts, and in doing so
they become amazed at the contra
dictions that present themselves.
The President s recent message to
Congress, like several preceding ones,
was more a sermon to the people
than a message to Congress. The
President seems to either take it for
granted that the only way he can
reach Congress is to stir up the peo-
pie and through them Congress, or
he takes that method Of playing to
the galleries. The former would be
the most charitable view to take of
it, but when the high ideals of public
and private life contained in his SER
mons and speeches are compared with
many Of his official acts, it is almost
impossible to credit the President
with entire sincerity.
That the Presidents sermons have
done a power Of good is beyond ques-
ton. The influence Of the high ideals
in public and private life so admira-
bly, presented by the President, and
his severe condemnation Of the wrong
doer, has largely tended to elevate
the standard from which all public
and private acts should be gagged.
This influence will continue to mani
fest itself for many years to come,
Notwithstanding the many contradic-
lions between his sermons and his
official acts
With apparent sincerity the Presi-
dent often repeats that no wrong
doer should be shielded or protected,
and yet how many times during the
last few years have we proof that
the protecting arm of the President
did shield some favored wrong-doer!
The power Of the trusts, corporations,
and the rich, must be curbed, is one
of Roosevelt's pet phrases, but he
personally enlarged the power of the
United States Steel corporation, ex-
allied a repudiated Senator in Wis
consin to a United States judgesh,p,
turned a deaf ear to every progressive
leader in his own party, and urged the
passage of an asset currency measure;
which gave the rich more power than
any currency law passed by any Con-
eress since the declaration of indie
pendence.

the law and denouncing it as the most

THE BURGOMASTER."

The Montreal, Quebec, Gazette of
Tuesday, December 10, 1907, has the
following to say of 1.-The Burgo-
MASTER"
"Packed to capacity, and with
standing room in demand, the Acad-
envy of Music last evening presented
an aspect in keeping with the best
traditions of former seasons. Estab-
lished popularity in previous visits,
''The Burgomaster, with accessories
up to date, at once renewed its hold,
and the strange adventures OF the
merry old Dutchman were witnessed
with as much laughter as ever.
Harry Hermsen is again in the
role of the Burgomaster, host of
silorliment in himself, and as "the
summer boy" Ruth White looks as
attractive as of yore in the garb of
her opposite sex.
"There is an abundance of catchy airs
which were prolific of encores, the
wierd song of the Indian chief in act
one provoking a storm of applause.
The chorus that greeted the burgo-
master on awakening from his sleep
OF three hundred years added no little
to the success of the entertainment,
their dancing being good, their cos
tunes triumphs of taste and their
faces in most cases bewitchin 'ly' fair
so that though the results of indulg-
ence in whisky were shown to lead in
Peter Stuyvesant's case to employ
- emf II a dime museum and awakened
opportunities from an enormous lady
tneosophist, the tipping old Dutch
mans fate had features to be envied."
