Background, Ga, Dec. II, 1908.
Hon Thos. F. Watson, Thomson. Ga
Dear Sir: | am nothing but All old Confed-
crate soldier, but would be glad if you would
explain through the columns of your weekly
what you expected to gain in the way of re-
form if Georgia would give you the electoral
vote, then if needed to elect w. J. Bryan Pres
ident, you would turn it over to him. I. know
one thing,-that proposition cost you hundreds
of votes in Cherokee county. Please explain
The boys up here are anxious to know, as we'll
as myself. Yours truly,
H. Fl. EDWARDS.
The proposition to which Our friend Edwards
refers was simply one of Mr. Watson's many
mistakes
At the time it was made, there appeared to
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-01-07
WY. Taft and the Solid South.


Apparently obvous Of the fact that the
Presidency of the United States has sometimes
stumbled upon men of the calibre Of William
Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Franklin
Pierce, James Buchanan, James K. Polk and
Rutherford B. Hayes, Our genial and capable
President-elect, Mr.. Taft, has given evidence
of an inclination to the belief that Special
Providence has had an eye on him, 10! these
many years with view to managing his 1908
campaign, and steering him miraculously into
the White House. We trust that the native
good sense Of Mr.. Taft will assert itself, after
awhile and that he will come to wholesome
recognition of the fact that his nomination was
brought about in a purely human and prosac
manner,-as Brother Charles check stubs and
Mr.. Hitchcock's card index would demon
strate,-and that his election did not necessari-
ly distract attention from work going on in
other worlds.
The fact Of the business is, that Bryan has
been whipped so often and in so many ways
that the Democratic party has got accustomed
to it, expects nothing else. and lays down to
the Republicans every time a rev campaign
opens,-pretty much as those chickens did for
the man who had moved from one place to
another SO frequently that they knew, to a
minute, when to whir over on their backs and
hold up their legs to be tied
Yep. What Tom Reed used to call "the
sprawl" has all gone out of the dear old D. P;
and Bryan has SO little of the appreciation of
the ridiculous in him, that he doesn't suspect
that everybody laughs at him when he assumes
the martyr attitude and talks about being will
ing lead his party to another Waterloo if
they insist upon it. To make it certain that
fourth beating shall be ahead Of the dear old
d. F., the faithful Bryan has already opened
his campaign for fourth nomination!
No wonder the dear old Democratic Party
has the mullygrubs. No wonder the dear old
exasperated thing is tearing out its hair and
disarranging the furniture. No wonder it's
editors color their columns with Jeremiads
doleful "reminiscences, sombre predictions and
advice which isn't worth helsroom
Now, Mr.. Taft is shrewd politician and he
knows human nature. He is aware of the
dispiriting fact that no partisan and selfish or
ganization can be kept TIP, without an occa-
sional access to the pie counter. He knows,
as everybody else does, that the Democratic
party Of today stands for no principles, no def
mite policy, no high and holy purpose, but is
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-01-07

merely robust, growing and hunger-Whetted
appetite for pie
Therefore, Mr.. Taft is calculating. He
wants to see two political parties made UP
mainly of white men, in the Southern States.
Well, we want the Solid South broken up,
too, but we don't want it done that way. We
will do Our level best to keep the South from
becoming Republican.
No greater disaster could befall the entire
country than the success of Mr. Tafts plan.
In the first place, there is nothing to be gained
by swapping the devil for a witch One of
these old parties is as bad as the other, when
we Judge them from the standpoint of econorn-
c principles. Both Of them are committed to
Hamiltonianism, and neither stands for true
democratic doctrines. Between the present
Democratic platform and the present Repub-
ican platform there is not the difference of
two schools of political teaching, as there
should be when two political parties pretend to
oppose each other.
But this is not ALL Mr.. Taft is committed
to the policy Of granting political equality to
the negro
We admit that we once thought that this
concession could safely be made Experience
has convinced lis that it cannot be done with
out bringing social equality with it.
And rather than see Social Equality come,
WE WOULD PREFER TO TAKE A SOL
DIER'S PART IN ANOTHER CIVIL
WAR
When we reflect that Our class-legislation
has impoverished the Masses that the sons
and daughters of white folks who are poor are
driven to the necessity of applying to negro
office-hoders for work, and that white girls
are thus made to rely for support upon their
being able to please negro men,-DO YOU
NOT SEE THE DANGER? Marriage, or
something infinitely worse would be the ma
tural result
That is one way in which the thin edge Of
the wedge would enter, but there are Others
If negro men and negro women are given po-
litical equality and boosted into positions of
honor and emolument, inferior white men
would become "squaw-men'' to the salaried
negresses, and inferior, poverty-stricken white
women would crave a seat in Hon. Afro-Amer-
leans auto and a comfortable chair at his
warm hearth
Think it out, Mr.. Taft! Your plan of split
ting the Solid South means perdition to her
and enormous injury to the republic
Rather than break UP the Solid South bv
seeing it become the prey of the Republicans
we would go back to the Democratic party,
to fight to the death THIS POLITICAL
EQUALITY WHICH WOULD OPEN THE
DOOR TO SOCIAL DEGRADATION,-fo
in the Southern States, at least, the Demo-
cratic party does stand for White Supremacy.

Why NY. Watson Did Ii.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1909-01-07

be general disposition throughout the state
to compliment the Georgia presidential cand-
date with the. vote of his native state. The
Bryan deal with the liquor interests in Maine,
Ohio and Indiana was not then known His
effort to make political capital out of the
Brownsville matter, and the appointment by
Mr.. Roosevelt Of an ex-Confederate soldier to
the headship of the U. S. War Department,
could not have been foreseen Neither did Mr..
Watson, at that time, have proof that Mr.. Bry-
an had thrown away his vote, in the Demo
cratic caucus of 18o1--when voting behind
closed doors-and had explained his queer con-
duct to Alfred Henry Lewis by saying that he
did not care to face the old Union soldiers of
his Congressional district with the record Of
having voted for an ex-Confederate soldier
These things came out later On July 9th,
1908 when the Watson proposition was pub
lcly made, there seemed to be just plain case
OF pot and kettle, SO far the political color of
Bryan and Taft was concerned Mr.. Watson
stated that much, in effect, but declared that
on account of what he knew to be the senti-
ment Of majority of the people of Georgia he
would agree to turn over the electoral vote of
the state to Bryan if it should be necessary to
make him President
What would the reformers have gained by
the acceptance of the proposition?
A FAIR HEARING ,-something which they
have never had in the South. r
Suppose Mr.. Watson had succeeded in get;
ting just that-a fair hearing would this
state have been by the time he finished its
canvass?
1T WOULD HAVE BEEN A CONVERT
TO THE PRINCIPLES OF POPULIsM.
If the Watson proposition had been accept
ed, THE GUNS OF THE DEMOCRATIC
DAILIES WOULD HAVE BEEN SPIKED.
They could not have published lie after lie on
the Georgia candidate as they did, Hoke
Smith could not have vented his vindictive
rage through the columns of the Atlanta Jour
nal, as he did The outrageous attempt to
connect Mr.. Watson with some alleged CONVEX
sation between Bodenhamer, Populist, and
Grier, Republican, would never have been
made. The malicious and mendacious use of
the Pettigrew statement, by Mr.. Bryan and
Hoke Smith, would not have been thought of.
Instead of this vilihcation and slanderous
crusade, Mr.. Watson would have got fair
trial before an impartial jury AND THE YER
DICT WOULD HAVE BEEN HIS.
The moral effect of having carried the Emf
pire State of the South would have been pr;Eo
digious What did it matter if, according to
his agreement, Mr.. Watson had turned This
electoral vote over to Mr.. Bryan? Notlaing.
All sane men knew that the next President
was bound to be Bryan or Taft, and to us Pops
these two were political twins
Our whole case against the two old parties
rests upon the fact that they are twins, two
wings of the same fierce bird of prey, two legs
upon which Privilege stalks, two horses hitched
to the chariot of plutocracy.
IF THIS IS NOT SO, THERE is NO Elk
CUSE FOR A THIRD PARTY.
