WIRELESS AIDS DISABLED :.
 STEAMBOAT NEW HAVEN

New York. oct. 21-The wireless station at the Herald Ship News Of flee at the Battery proved it's eff ciency yesterday morning when out of the mist along the Sound came a wireless call for help from the New New England Navigation Company, which had broken down. Fhe mes sage was directed to R. III. Scho1z, the superintendent of the company at Pier, 19, North River asking that tughOatS be sent to help the New Haven which was then near the en- trance to the Sound.<
 ator of the company, through which the message was being sent, and at once it was relayed by telephone from the Herald Ship News Office to MT. Scholz, telling him of the plight of the New Haven. Hardly had he answered with thanks to the Herald for it's pronptness when another mes-- Colony, another steamboat of the New England Navigation Company's fleet was standing by and would take the New Haven in tow. This message was also re1ayed to it's destination.
 The steamboats were then near Negro Point in Hell Gate, where the Diana, a steam yacht, recently went aground and her plight became known at the Herald wireless station through signals from the Mohawk, a revenue cutter.
 TugboatM went to the aid of the New Haven and assisted the Old Col ony convey the disabled freighter to the North River pier.
 The New Haven was on her way to New York on her regular night run when the break occurred in her en- zine room.

BIG MILK TRUST
 TALE IS UNFOLD

Washington, Oct. 21.-Charges that an enormous trust, with capitaliza- ned to control the milk supply of the country, is in existence has been
 made before the Commissioners of the District by Corbey Thompson, Vice President of the Milk Dealers Association, and H. O. Tumble. Ac- cording to the two witnesses the trust had so influenced the minds of local health officials that they were ''un- willingly playing into the hands of this gigantic enterprise, and that in advocating the pasteuriZation of milk they were really only encouraging the sale of pasteurization plants.
 These charges were supported with so little specification of details that Commissioner Rudolf cautioned them that their charges were serious and to be effective must be more definite. To this warning the dairymen replied from the trust through the course of their business careers and they an nounced that they felt able to give exact data. At the hearing about the only definite charges they did make were to mention the names of several prominent fnanciers as connected
 Levi P. Morton, Thomas F. Ryan, Anthony Brady, and B. J. Berwind head the list. Other prominent fin aHneleTs named Heak weKe nbn JamHS foeB B arSe Co H. L. Wiley, Hugh Grant Browne. Eugene Delmar, Horace W. Hen shaw, Eben Dudley, Lyman B. kel- bourne, and w. I. Moody.
 The testimony of the two men did not seem to make much impression upon the Commissioners.
 In defense of presentation and tubercu1in testing, there were present at the hearing Emile Berliner, Dr. A. D. Melvin, Chief of Bureau of Animal Industry; Dr. John Moh1er, Chief of the Pathological Division of the same bureau; pr. John F. Anderson, Direc- tor of the Hygienic Laboratory Ma rine Hospital Service; Dr. B. O.. Shroeder, Director of the Bureau of Animal Industry experiment. station at Bethesd Md; Dr. G. L.

WAS A "DESPISED PEOPLES
PARTY MAN,

Dear Mr.. Watsou:-A I am one
of your old subscribers please allow
me space in your paper for this let
ter l want to say few words on
politics in Georgia. l am native
Georgian and one of the common peo-
pie, and have never been anything
since the beginning of the Peoples
Party but despised Peoples Party
man. l have never voted for any
State officers in primaries since we
quit putting out candidates; and l
never had the slightest doubt about
you but once, and that was in Hoke
Smiths first campaign for Governor.
I did not do as some have done
condemn you and ridicule you for the
stand you had taken, though I was
sure you had endorsed one of the
cOrruptest Democrats in this State,
and have not changed my views on
him yet. But when you did give
your reasons, / was satisfied and saw
that you were honor-bound by your
word, but I was not, and did not vote
in that primary. The first thing
Hoke did after his election was to
organize an immigration bureau and
go himself to Europe to make immi-
grafton speeches to European Catho-
lies, and he kept it up until the
Farmers Union raised a storm and
brought him home. believe him to
be in sympathy with Roman Cath
olics; if so, our State is in grave
danger.

HOPING FOR BETTER THINGS
Luxomni, Ga.

Dear Mr.. Watson:-Being a lover
OF liberty, and realizing the need of
true reform in this dear old country
and believing you to be the best
representative we have in the south
on this line, am today enclosing
llst or subscriptions, at my own ex-
pense, hoping that it may help some
in advancing the cause of true and
genuine reform, which is so much
needed. 1t seems that in this ad-
vanced age, with the opportunities
afforded us, we should be already far
advanced in the way of getting these
much needed reforms, but when we
read the average dope sent out by
nearly, if not quite all, of aur in
f1uential daily papers, it is indeed
alarming. 1t seems they are woefully
ignorant of your purpose or greatly
misunderstood and misrepresent your
intention. 1t is hard for me to be-
lieve that they don't know you are
working in the interest of the masses.
Then what do they mean? Do they
all belong to the corporations? I
fear such a thing is too true. 1t
seems that all of them are in favor
of the suppression of free speech,
to your Auditorium affair. 1t is
strange to me that with all our boast
ed enlightenment that we cannot see
the drift of conditions. However, let
us not give up, but press on in the
way we believe to be right, standing
firm against what we know to be
wrong, and whether we live to see
the victory won or not, we will have
the assurance that we have tried to
contend for the right. Would that l
could put The Jeffs in million
homes. Trusting that you may be
spared to fight the battles of the peo-
pie for many years, and through your
speeches and writing many may be
educated on the alarming trend of
conditions and come to the rescue,
and that our principles may ultimate
ly triumph is the sincere wish of
one of your numerous friends and
readers. REFORMER.

TIME FOR A HISTORY OF THE
CIVIL WAR FROM THE
SOUTH'S VIEW
POINT.

Dear Sir:-Have you seen the Sep
TENDER number of the American
Magazine? William cambridge Tur-
ner's account of the Imprisonment,
persecution, and suffering of his
father at the hands of the Federal
authorities at the fall of Richmond
is worthy of notice and comment.
The North keeps alive the story of
Andersonville and many believe that
all the barbarities were committed
by the Confederates: it is now high
time that the other side of the ques
ton should be shown to stir
up national hatred, but to prove that
what w. T. Sherman said and pro-
ceeded to illustrate by his own acts
is true-that ''War is He'll" A very
great service to humanity might be
done by uncovering the horrors of the
Civil War and exposing them to the
public gaze; not in any spirit of
malice, but for the truths sake and
to strengthen the movement toward
universal peace by stripping war of
it's false glory. AS small boy 1 had
war experience, far short of Tur-
ner's, yet acute enough to illuminate
every paragraph of his simple but
deeply affecting narrative.
Enclosed I also send you poem
by my brother, Howard Singleton
Taylor, of Chicago, which I think you
will like, and which, for the senti-
ment expressed, is worthy of being
turned loose upon a page of The JEFF
fersOnian. My brother was a strong
supporter of the ''Boy Orator of the
Platte" until he discovered his game
a few years since, when he dumped
William upon the refuse heap of
broken idols
Yours sincerely,

Dear Sir:-I take much pleasure in
answering your letter and beg to
thank you for the Joe Brown tickets
inclosed. l hope you have sent them
to every polling place throughout the
state. IT every man felt as interested
as I do, we would send Little Joe in
by over 100000 majority. l hope
Old Man Peepul will put it up to
them. 1 never asw people change so
in my life since the rule or ruin
clique tried so hard to- howl you
down. I think it was to their hurt,
but was for the upbuilding of you and
your cause. I tell you it disguised
many man that voted for Hoke
in the primary. Your letter and the
clerk of the Interior letter will dis
gust the balance if they possess any
conscience at all.
Enclosed you will find clipping
from the Hoke Smith Journal 1t is
what old Hoke had to say in last
Fridays Journal. The old rascal
thought he would take or have the
inside track on you. He was as
mute as a mouse until your paper
had been sent out. He wouldn't say
anything before he knew it would be
too late for you to make your reply
before the election. There are four
men (my next door neighbors) who,
after seeing this clipping, said it was
another rascally trick he had. They
said they would never vote for old
Hoke again. They were voters for
him in the primary.
Here's hoping that you may live to
get this government righted
