Atlanta, Georgia, March II, 1910



Some months ago there was published in
the saturday Eocning Post, an article by
Rockefellers beloved pastor, the Rev. Dr.
Aked. The subject was, "A Minister'S Mail"
In its cynical urbanity, it's genial brutality,
ii was a most unique production. The Eng
fish Clergyman related how thousands of let
ters piled up on him; how at one time there
was 8 load for an automobile; and how, at
the happy suggestion of some friend, he rid
himself OF the annoyance of going through
this accumulation Of mail by the simple
process of doytroyjng 1t, unem0noined
The Rev. Charles Aked, DID, described
the begging letters which came to him-let-
ters which impIored him to put the cases Of
the writer's before Mr.. Rockefeller The
cheerful Charles Published samples of these
letters. One, I recol1ect, was from a desti-
tute widow, who asked that the Oil King pur-
chase some Of her needle-work. Another, de-
scrbed IN piteous detail the situation of a
young lady who pleaded for assistance
These letters appeared to impress the light
hearted Aked as being preposterously I'M
reasonable.
But the greatest annoyance which the Rev
Aked, DID, had endured came from broth
er Of the 'cloth", 1t appears that a super
animated preacher had mailed to Rockefel-
tors pastor an Illuminated testimonial which
had been presented to the aged Soldier Of the
Cross by the church which he had served so
long. This document acas the most precious
Of the venerable minister's possessions.

lie had mailed the beautiful and sacred
testimonial to DR.. Aked, to gain his conf
dence and his sympathy. 1t 2cas lost IN
4hed'8 nanH Probably it was burned in that
bonfire of accumulated letters and packages
Anyhow, the poor old Veteran wanted it
back. His petition for aid had never received
a reply, but he thought he ought at least to
have his own property restored And be-
couse he had acritten DR.. Abed several cards,
6eQ0ing for the return Of the testimonial,
Aked mentioned him as one of the Nuisances
that got into "a Minister'S Mal"!
Now, we editors have our troubles, and our
unreasonable correspondents, but I don't
think we are as unfeeling as DR.. Aked proved
himself to be.

Democrats of the South and Vest
Should Consider This


What wrecked the Democratic Party?
The domination of the North and the East.
And how have Northern and Eastern
States, a0hich never elect Democratic electors,
been enabled to control the Democratic Party?
By claiming the right to vote the full
strength of such States as Pennsylvania,
Maine and Massachusetts, in the Democratic
National Conventions
Think of Pennsylvania, aOhdch never goes
Democratic, out-voting Georgia or Tennessee,
or South Carolina, or Aza6amoa, ta0o to one q"
the National Convention!
By doing this, Pennsylvania, Maine, Mas
sachusetts, Vermont, Illinois and other re-
liably Republican States, go into the Convem-
tion, dictate the PLATFORM, select the nominees
and then coozzy q0ait for the South and the
West TO saU0zZ0aD the nasty n1aDtuTe called
"Pzatform", and elect the Wall Street tools
qDho haze been fOisted on to the Presidential
ticket.
In the same manner the party of Lincoln
has been driven from its original principles.
States which never go Republican have more
votes in National Convention than some of
those which always do; and thus I'M Republi-
can States choose Republican nominees and
make Republican Platforms, just as un-Dem-
Ocratic States dictate Democratic nominees
and Platforms.
To avoid this death trap, the Populists de-
cided that each State shall have just such
weight in our National Convention as it's ac-
tual vote at some past election shows it to be
entitled to have.
The North and the East will always favor
the policies most abhorrent to the South and
West. They did it in Jeferson's day, and in
Jaczson's day, and they will continue on that
line to the end High Tariffs, Funding Sys-
TENS, National Banks, Special Privileges to
the money power, Special Favoritism to cor
porations these have always been the New
England policies and always will be.
Those States do not produce the wealth
they amass. They must live by fleeing the
States which do produce Hence it is that
they naturally incline to the laws which ia
vor the transporter, the manufacturer, and
the lender, at the expense of the producer and
the borrower.
Beautifully has the scheme worked.
New Enga IS naturally sterile. Her
fields are barren hillsides; no hungry mil
lions look to her for food; no miners pour
forth their treasures from her grudging soil;
no herds fatten on her meagre pastures; she
makes nothing to clothe the naked or to house
the homeless. She buys everything she uses
Yet, producing nothing, she has almost all
the wealth of the Union, while the Southern
and Western States producing all the food
and all the raiment and all the mineral and
all the lumber have nothing but mortgages
on their homes and misery in their hearts to
show for it,
And how did it all come about?
Damnable laws which plundered the pro-
ducing sections to enrich the producing

CONCRE TING THE
BIG WATERWAY
Eight Concrete Mixers Are Supplying Material improvements
the Davis and Weber Counties Canal-Engneer Bostaph
Has Large Corps of Surveyors il the Field

Between four and five hundred men
are now employed on the construction
work of the Davis and Weber coun-
ties canal and the big ditch is being
concreted at a rate of several hund-
red feet per day.
The concreted canal when complet-
ed, will be nine and three-lourth
miles in length and at the present
time five miles OF the waterway has
been put In shape for the placing of
the cement. One and three-tourths
miles OF the ditch is entirely finished
and the cement is being laid at rate
OF 500 feet per day. City Engineer
w. n. Bostaph, who is in charge of
the gigantic task, stated this morning
that the work could not be completed
before the workers are caught by
the cold weather but that he expects,
with ordinary conditions, in the late
spring the canal will be in readiness
for irrigation purposes when it be-
comes time TO Irrisate
In some respects the improving ol
the canal is offering problems in en-
gineering that have not hitherto been
solved AT one point in its course
the engineers are virtually holding
back a mountain with steel bands and
cement Thousands of tons OF earth
and rock are being kept from burying
the canal only by the skillful art OF

The worltmen have really blocked
