DEMOCRAT REFUSES TO
AGREE TO ENDORSEMENT

Editor Herald: That the Lincoln
Roosevelt league Cor as is reported,
the leaders thereoD are not above
doing sharp politics is to be inferred
by the proposition advanced of indors-
ing candidates prior to their nominal
ton by the electors on August 16. Now
it so happens that five of the L.-R. l..
candidates are men who were nomn-
ated by the infamous Venice COnVen-
ton four years ago and some of them
were appointed by the solid three of
the board of supervisors. il would be
a clever stunt indeed to have these old
Republican machine men indorsed by
the well meaning but sadly misin-
formed Christian men of the Good
Government organization so that the
Democratic party could not point to
their past records without offending
the we'll meaning but impractical lead
ers of the Good Government organiza-
tion after the primary. Speaking as
Democrat who voted the Good Gov
ernment ticket straight the last city
election, will only say that refuse to
abide by any such arrangement.

ALDRICH'S PERFIDY

\" HEN Senator Bristow of Kansas
w brought his charge that Senator
Aldrich, in his capacity as gen.
eral manager of the senate, had raised
the tariff on rubber goods and then
formed a trust to control that COM
modify, there was a proper disposition
on the part Of many to withhold entire
credence for confederation. 1t involved
such political baseness, and even prob
able criminality, that it didn't seem
likely that any senator would do such
a thing. But it is true. Clifford Pin
chot, whose word will be accepted by
everyone who knows him, declared in
his speech at Sacramento on Wednes-
day night that he had seen the official
proofs. He said:
| assail Aldrich because, under his
leadership, the tariff on rubber was
increased a the same time that
Aldrich. with members of the firm
of Guggenheim, was establishing
the International Rubber company
whose charter made it a holding
company for the coal and copper
deposits of the whole world [
know something about that, because
1 sent to Trenton and got certified
copies of the articles of incorpora-
tion, showing Senator Aldrichs
name and the name of his son
among the incorporators.
Aldrich's son is vice president
and general manager of that trust,
born of the protection of the Aid
rich tariff bill
If the exposure of Senator Foraker's
possession of the Standard Oil letters
created a sensation and scandal, and if
they ultimately resulted in his retire
ment from public life in disgrace, this
amazing disclosure should arouse the
country to slay Aldrich and Aldrichism
with a speed that will be a record
Foraker was only a lieutenant in the
army of pelf. Aldrich was its general
issimo.
Is Mr.. Taft so blind that it will take
more than this. to make him see the
enormity of the blunder he made when
he became an open sponsor for the
Rhode Island political highbinder?

CUPID IN DANGER.
A Bespectacled Doctor May Yet Gust
God of Love.

A Bespectacled Doctor May Yet Gust
God of Love.
Cupid may yet become a back
number and have to give way to a
bespectacled doctor. Listen! At the
annual meeting of the American
Breeders Association, recently held
in Omaha, a resolution was adopted
which would throw the merry little
god of love into the waste basket.
Tka committee that reported the res
olution is headed by David Starr JOr-
dan, president of Leland Stanford
University, and composed of college
professors and scientists.
The resolution recommends mar
riage alQnaa ines of scientific princi-
pies onl1 education Of the public
first and Zen legislation. The report
states that if a man or woman wish
es to marry they should submit to a
physical, mental and u1dcal examina-
ton, producing their fly records
as far back as the foWH gene ratiDnA
eff these records are clean
the report, " they may sf4sFy
they will mate only under penSN z,
and the preacher or judge who mar
ries them will be punished. Our 81
innate aim is to bring about
mating, so that the best charac
tics of the nation may become wid68g
disseminated and its unfit traits weed
ed out. Thus we will eliminate hos
pitfalls, insane asylums and homes for
the blind; eliminate poor farms and
bread lines by breeding a pure race.
Let us take the steps that scientific
duty indicates as necessary, and dry
up the springs that feed the torrent
of defective degenerates.
The committee suggests that some
wealthy man, instead of giving S10,-
100000 to hospitals and schools,
could do the world and the human
race more good by using the money
to start an educational campaign to
bring about the conditions sought.

RECIPE FOR MAKING RED-EYE
MACON OFFICERS UNEARTH NEW
MANUFACTURING" PLANT.
Four Ounces of ''No. &c." Two Pints
of Alcohol and Six Pints of Water
Make a Gallon of ''Whiskey."

do you know how they make
blind tiger whiskey?" asked an Off
Ger; Off Macon Telegraph reporter.
YWeH, you Just walk in here and
| will show you" And he did.
Captured from a blind tiger Bibb
county has in possession a quantity
of a dark colored liquid in bottles,
which when mixed according to di-
rections makes a connection unlaw-
full dealers call whiskey 1t is made
thus: With one four-ounce bottle
OF the formula "No. go two pints
of alcohol are added To this is then
added six pints of water, making
gallon of 'whiskey."
This mo. go stuff is very dark
in color, almost black 1t contains
the favoring and coloring for the
gallon of red-eye.
Whether President Taft would call
the mixture when completed accord
ing to direction whiskey is a ques-
ton.
Those who have tried it think the
taste is fair, but the effects are very
disastrous to the individual partak
ing of the concoction.
mo. 80" can also be used by
slightly changing the ingredients to
make gin, brandy, rock and rye, corn
whiskey. wine, or most anything else
the blind tigers customers might
call for.
mo. 80" is the goods, in fact.
All that is necessary is to mix it
properly.
The two pints of alcohol of the
quality recommended for use with
mo. 80" would cost so cents. Four
ounces of mo 80" costs so cents,
thereby making a gallon of "whis
key" cost the manufacture" $1.30,
provided six quarts of water didn't
cost the maker anything. This gal
Ion of ''whiskey'' retailed at 40 cents
per pint, which is the average price
of blind tiger goods, according to
the officer, would net the dealer
about $1.90, or profit of nearly $50
per cent.
1t is the effects of this character
Of stuff which causes men to become
crazy, according to the officer. There
are said to be much such stuff made
and sold from the secret" formu-
las, and the officers of Bibb county
and Macon are on the lookout for the
manufacturing" plants Whereabouts.
The maker of this class of goods,
however, is more fortunate than the
blockade distiller, as he is not both
cred with mash tubs, cap and worm
nor still. He can carry his four
ounce bottles of coloring in a grip.
and the amount of alcohol required
to make a carload of this quality of
stuff would not be hard to conceal.
The common idea that whiskey
and water won't mix doesn't hold
good when mo. 80" is used.

HEN CACKLES S2,OOO,OOO.OO
New States Busy Bird Produces
More Than Ten Million Dozen
Eggs in Year.


GUTHRIE, Okla.-The helpful hen
has been a busy bird in Oklahoma,
according to the second annual re-
port of the State Department of La
Dor, issued by Commissioner Charles
Daugherty. During the time consid-
cred in his report the hens of the
new state cackled at least 1854
109 dozen times, for Mr.. Daugherty
says he knows positively of that many
dozen eggs which were listed last
year as surplus product. The egg
buyers shelled out more than two
million dollars to the Oklahoma farm
wife for these eggs.
During the fiscal year included in
the report Oklahoma produced more
than 14,400,000 pounds of live poul-
try, valued at $1,450, 820.50, and of
dressed poultry 1,970,452 pounds,
valued at $240, 305.50.
Feathers were rather a light crop,
the total being 1904 pounds at
value a trifle more than $1,000.
Cheese amounted to 37,147 pounds
at a value of almost $4,000, while
the amount of cream and milk was
100000 pounds, The butter
amounted to 2,868,000 pounds, and
brought $685., 921.80.
These figures do not account for
the products consumed at home.
The surplus livestock was valued
at $37,375,935 There were 536,O85
head of cattle, worth $24,123,625;
717,182 head of hogs, w'rth SILL
957,730.
1t is recorded that among other
surplus products there are 16 cars of
corncobs and 515 pounds of ginseng.
The ginseng brought $2,575, and the
corncobs $3.50. 1t took 33,48 gal
Ions of mineral water, worth $6,786,
to supply the outside demand, while
cut flowers were valued at $3,7S3.
Molasses shipped out amounted to
1885 gallons, and brought $79,-
SAP. Among other surplus products
were pickles worth SAB, 407.6S, and
onions to the value of $4,000. Po-
tatoes headed the list of vegetables
with almost 100000 pounds, valued
at $359,495.10.

COST OF LIVING GETS ON NERVES OF WALL ST.

notably, this year, such smaller
combinations as the milk trust.
Yet it is rather curious that the
greediest of all the great trusts OF
1906, in the matter of extorting alb
normal prices, is this year having
troubles of it's own in holding even
average prices, while the steel trust
has only lately yielded to demand for
reductions. The tariff, notwithstand-
ing President Taft's generation Of
it as an influence, does have bear
ing in preventing relief when domes-
tic prices are EXCESSIVE but the very
figures for cost of living, quoted in
this article, are not American but
English.
Some Other Influences.
Operations of spectators have
something to do with cost of living,
and their success is largely conse-
quence of easy credit caused by in
creasing gold supplies in bank re-
serves. This is not true alone of
SPECTATORS on the various commod-
ity exchanges-easy credit and the
assistance of the banks have gone
far towards turning producers, for
the time, into spectators in their
own commodities, if not into a sort
of trusts. Cotton and grain mar.
kets. not to mention real estate,
know exactly how much the present
prices are attributable to the origl-
nal owner who holds his property Off
the market until his price is bid.
Habitual extravaganza may itself re-
suit indirectly from successful spec
ulation, or directly from easy cred
1.-THE second explanation being rea-
sonable in the case of that very
large section of the community which
is already once more living beyond
it's means. AS for exhaustion of nat
ural resources, the price of such
things as lumber is at least case
in point.
