the poor, and were so considerable OF
the rich as to let automobiles off at
SO per cent.
And one of the parties to this fear
full crime has the gall to come to
Athens and denounce me for presum-
ing to write books about France,
about Thomas Jefferson and about
Andrew Jackson.
Mercy on us! Does he take us all
for lunatics? Does he suppose that
he can save his own skin by abusing
a man who is not asking for office?
Does he imagine that he, the sootiest
of pots, can escape condemnation by
calling me a kettle? Poor distraught
and bewildered creature!
Howard and His Father.
l wonder if Bills old father ever
haunts his troubled sleep! I wonder
if he remembers how that solitary
old man, disowned by his child
widowered and row-laden-usedt to
creep into the courthouse at LeXing-
ton when his handsome, brilliant boy
was to address the jury?
I am told that it was one of the
most pitiable sights ever Witnessed
DR.. Howard would sit there, drink
ing in Bills every word-a look Of
unspeakable pride and affection on
his countenance. When Bill had
closed his speech, his father would
look hungrily into his face, begging
mutely for glance of recognition.
He did not get it. Bills stony fea-
lures did not relax; his hard eyes
gave no sign. He would not see his
old father
'"Tom," said my informant to me,
1T was the saddest thing you ever
saw. The poor old man would rise,
and go away, looking like whipped
dog"
And this unnatural, iinty-hearted
son, is the man who comes from
Washington to Athens. to excoriate
me for lowering standards and writ
ing books about France, Jefferson
and Jackson!
A word in conclusion. Bill Howard
said that I am endeavoring to build
up political despotism in this State.
Not so; unless the substitution of
honest, energetic workers for do
nothings and deserters constitutes
despotism.
The ideals of the Old South are
my political dream. To bring them
once more into ascendancy, is the
task to which I am consecrating the
remaining years Of my life. De-
frauded out of my seat in Congress,
reduced to financial straits by the
continued struggle to overcome the
Augusta ring, I had to recognize our
Appomattox, and temporarily stack
arms. But I did not abandon my
friends nor my principles. I had told
my followers that I would take pot
luck with them-and I did. We had
fought together; we fell together
and now, our time has come again!
Not under the old name, our prin-
ciples are beginning to rule the land.
The leaven permeates the whole loaf.
Where the POpulists Sowed.
Many Democratic candidate has
reaped and is reaping, where the
Peoples Party sowed. That's all
right. AS for me, l care not who
garners the harvest Of my labors, so
the people get the bread.
Had the deserters gone to the Re-
publicans to support some great
measure Of relief for the people, I
would have been the first man to
crown them with praise. Party names
and party lines, in themselves, are
nothing

from us by oppressive taxation
and they keep these millions in the
business of these favored bankers
year after year.
They have made no contest to
compel the Government to put into
circulation the $3.50, 100000 of idle
gold that lies in the treasury-go
that is kept there to keep it out of
competition with the money of the
Morgan Money Trust.
They have made no attempt what
ever to repeal the Dick bill, under
which the President could order
Northern militia against Southern
State, or negro troops against the
whites.
They made no effectual resistance
to the unconstitutional gold stand
ard, nor to the abominable tariffs
that have been fastened on us, al
though they might very well have
blocked both.
They have not done anything in
particular, because there was moth
ing in particular that they wished to
do-saving and excepting to con-
tinue in office. Everything that they
have accomplished might just as we'll
have been done by their secretaries.
AS to Bill Howard, and the other
four Georgia deserters, their turpi-
tude beggars the vocabulary of print
able denunciation. It's amazing
that they have the effrontery to look
honest men in the eye.
Unparalleled Political Crime.
Would you know. in cold verify,
the effect upon the country Of that
almost unparalleled political crime?
Senator A. o. Bacon a man not
given to the sensational and the ex-
travagant, said in the Senate, on All
gust 2, 1909, that the increases
which the Republicans had made in
the tariff bill, which increases neces-
sarily meant higher prices to con-
sumers, embraced the whole range
of articles essential to the comfort,
the health, the decency, the con-
yenience and the reasonable indul-
gence of the people in their homes,
IN their persons, and needed pleas
ures, and in the necessities of their
business aVocations. They embraced
the great mass and variety of arti-
cles OF everyday use and consump-
ton by the people generally-arti-
cles which, necessarily, in their pro-
curement make up the daily expense
OF living to people of all classes, the
rich and the poor alike, and differ
ing only in degree"
He proceeded to specify classes of
articles for which the people would
have to pay higher prices under the
new law.
Thousands of articles of home and
personal necessity were given an in
crease Of tariff duty, thus making it
certain that the manufacturers would
charge higher price for them.
And they have done it. The cost
Of living bounded upward, as soon as
the new law began to get in it's work.
Without the aid Of the twenty
three democratic deserters the new
law could not have been made Re-
member it, people!
Joe Cannon said so himself. and
his speech has been made official, by
Act of Congress. 1t was printed by
the Government without protest or
denial on the part of the deserters!
They are securely trapped. They
might have got old Joe to deny a
newspaper report of his speech; but

Usury.

Judge Johnson sprung a sensation
when he charged the grand jury to
investigate the conduct of loan offices
doing business in Hattiesburg. The
court had been informed that money
lenders were charging forty cents on
the dollar per week; The court had
seen the papers where a negro had
borrowed $3.50 from one of the loan
offices, had paid $61 ON the account
and still owed the money shark $1.35.
The court knew this to be a fact, be-
cause the negro had come to him for
the $l,35 with which to pay the "bal-
ance.' Other instances had become
known where loan men" had entered
the houses of negroes and poor white
people and taken every stick of fur
niture, bedding, kitchen utensils and
even the stove, for 2 tr.,i.' debt. Such
practice sIou'd ret he tolerated in
c. lied community, an should

ards.

for a fact that it is a common prac-
tice in this county 10 arrest negroes
and take them before Justices Of the
peace and heap high cost bills upon
them, which practically amounts to
slavery upon the county farm. The
court informed the jury that he knew
OF certain case where a negro had
been taken into court. upon a trivial
charge. The sentence had been sus-
pended upon payment of costs, and
the cost bill amounted to SIS. Pa
persito prove this statement were in
the possession of the court and at the
disposal of the jury. -
The court also called attention to
the alleged practice of summoning un-
necessary witnesses in such cases. 1t

/ that there are men in the country
who are professional witnesses, and
make living by testifying in the
courts.
