MY GRAVE.

(By Thomas Davis.)
Shall they bury me in the deep,
Where wind-forgetting waters sleep?
Shall they dig grave for me
Under the greenwood tree?
Or on the wild health,
Where the wilder breath
OF the storm doth blow?
oh, no-oh, no.
Shall they bury me in the Palace
Tombs,
Or under the shade of Cathedral
domes?
Sweet 'twere to lie on Italy's shore:
Yet not there-nor in Greece, though
L love it more.
In the wolf or the vulture of my
grave shall l find?
Shall my ashes career on the world
seeing wind?
Shall they fling my corpse on the bat
tie mound,
Where, coffinless, thousands lie under
the ground?
Just as they fall they are buried So
oh, no-oh. no.
No, on an Irish green hillside,
On an opening lawn-but not to wide!
For L love the drip of the wetter
trees
love not the gales. but gentle
breeze.
To freshen the turf-put no tomb
stone there,
But green sods deck'ed with daisies
fair,
Nor sods too deep; but 50 that the
dew,
The matter grass-roots may trickle
through.
Be my epitaph writ on my country's
mind,
HE served his country, and loved his
kind
Oh, 'twere merry unto the grave to go,
If one were sure to be buried so.

A POSER FOR THE PREACHER

A clergyman who enjoyed the sub
stantial benefits of fine farm was
Slightly taken down on one occasion
by his Irish plowman, who was sitting
on his plow in the wheat field. The
reverend gentleman, being an econo-
mist, said with great seriousness:
John, wouldn't it be a good plan
for you to have a pair of pruning
shears here and be cutting a few
bushes along the fence while the
horses are resting a short time? %
John considered moment and
then said:
Look here! Wouldn't it be well.
sir, for you to have a tub of potatoes
in the pulpit and while they were
singing to peel EN- awhile to be ready
for the pot? "-San Francisco Chron-

SOUNDED IT'S own KNELL.

The town Of Montauban, France,
was proud of its bell tower. 1t was
built by rich citizen in the sixteenth
century and named for him the bel
fry of Loutier. nearly 100 feet tall and
twenty-five feet square; the great bell
on its top has called the people to all
the important events in the towns
history.
Recently it sounded its own death
note. The town began to trembIe and
the vibration of the top was enough
TO set the bell ringing. warning all
those near it to escape. In a few sec
onds the massive tower was a heap
of dust and broken stones.
While not so celebrated as the Cam
panile of Venice. which met the same
fate few years ago. it was as dear
TO Montauban, and the town mourns
its destruction.

THE AUTOMOBiT,E BONNET.

The automobile bonnet is an artlEls
of comfort and it has become almost
d necessity as it protects the hair from
dust and from becoming badly llsaR-
ranged and is much more convenient
to put veil over than any kind OF
hat. 1t is worn a great deal for even

loose so that it viii not crush the
hair, and it is also modish for any
kind of driving.

What Southern Democrats Should
Insist Upon i'm the National
Convention

IT seems that my suggestion of proportion
al representation might fail of it's purpose
because of the fact that there are greater
number of Democratic votes cast North than
South. This objection was pointed out to me
by my friend, DR.. E. j. Forester, of the
Mercer University faculty.
Therefore, [ suggest another plan: Let
each State which actually goes Democratic,
retain the same vote in the Convention which
it has now.
But, in those States which fail to 90 Demo
cratic, reduce the representation in the Ma
tional Convention to the proportion which the
Democratic vote of that State bore to the en-
tire vote at the preceding Presidential cleo
ton. This rule is simple, practicable, and
Just.
For instance, if the Democrats of Pennsyl-
vania constitute but one-fourth of a majority
in that State, give them, in the Democratic
National Convention, but one-fourth of the
vote which they would have been entitled to,

And Don't Forget Professor Zettler,
Who is Running for State
School Commissioner

In my judgment, you couldn't do better
than elect Prof B. M. Zettler. He knows as
much about our school system as any man
living. He has been teacher, and also
School Commissioner. He organized the Bib
County system; and when I went over there
to attend Mercer, in 1872, Zettler's name was
being praised universally for the splendid
system of common schools that Macon boosted

Coca : Cola i'm Politics, to Support
DeSerter Livingston

By betraying the farmers to the manufac-
turers, and by helping the Republicans out,
whenever they are obliged to have him, Fan
ME Adams man has acquired great influence
with the Republican administration.
This unholy pull" was used to call off
the prosecution of Coca Cola It looked as
though Asa G. was up against it, few
months ago; but, all at once, the dogs quit
barking. Somebody had them called off,
Livingston did it.
And now ex-Judge John Gambler, Asa G.,s
brother, bobs up serenely, as an ardent sup
porter of the morally filthy Lon.
It's enough to make the late Milton Cand-
Ter turn in his grave.
This Coca Cola business will vet prove to
be the bane of the Gambler family. Every
body is bound to know that there's something
rotten in the State of Denmark, when the
Gamblers are commercially compelled to in
dorse such a creature as Lon Livingston.
1t must be awfully embarrassing to the
Bishop

support of Livingston is going to do Brother

mess?

Hope That the Boys Will Vote for

That he will prove himself to be an ideal At

And [ sincerely hope that my friends will give
him their hearty support.
His opponent, Mr.. Fielder, of Bibb County,
was the State Senator whose motion killed the
''Hardeman Resolutions in 1907 These were
aimed at the illegal relations existing between
the Southern and the Central railroads. That
Mr.. Fielder used his official position to shield
the two law-breaking corporations, is sufficient
to indicate how he would lean, were he Attor-
ney- General.

had they carried the State. If the Democratic
vote in Iowa amounts to three fourths of
majority, give them in the Democratic Con
vention three-fourths of the votes to which
they would have been entitled, had Iowa gone
Democratic.
Should the Democrats adopt this plan the
South would regain the ascendency which she
had, prior to the Civil War
And the Republicans WOULD no doubt, imi-
tate the Democrats; would reduce the repre-
sentation of the Southern States in their Ma
tional Conventions, and thus get rid of quad
riennially buying the negro delegations with
money or patronage.

THE JEFFERSONIAN

He stood up in public and called on God to
witness that he would uprightly demean him
self, in accordance of the laws of his State.
Yet, aoith this oath fresh on his lips, he be-
came a fezon. To enter the Ordinary's office
in that manner burglary; to steal those
papers was larcenous; and to destroy them,
was to deprive the County of the money that
might have been collected upon them There
fore, he not only robbed the Populist candi-
dates of the offices which they had fairly won,
but committed an offence against the entire
county by stealing and destroying those tax
executions. His criminal premaeditation IS at
tested By the fact that he got Judge Neaomouaa,
the Ordinary, ont Of the County.
Judge Newman was Democrat, but an
honest man. He knew that the f fa's had
been stolen, and he told Captain Jim Bar
rett, of Augusta, So but he didn't know who
did it.
Judge Hines, who had charge of the con-
tested election, knew that the f fa's had been
stolen, and he told Bill Fleming so; but he
didn't know who did it.
1t was Hardwick who planned and carried
out this abominable crime. lie Is noaU mook-
ing desperate efforts to get hold of that orig
inaz letter Uhich I exhibited at the Thomson
meetimg-just as he rushed over to Macon and
settled up with those sports who held his re-
pudlated gambling debts. Those gentlemen
ought to divide with me for having COM
PEELED the little rascal to pay up.
Immediately after he saao aohat I had pro-
posed to the sac gentlemen aboue-namaed, he
rushed Deer to Macon and virtuazzy got doqcm
on has hmees to Sam Edmondson. Samuel
took pity on the little fellow, just as I did
when Bill Fleming had him cornered, in 1901
Hauing made sure that the sports uouzd keep
meema, he aorote and mailed from Macon that
last TRADE, echich purported to haze been
uritten IN Saadersvilze and mailed from
there on the 18th dag Of July. Hardwick was
in Macon that day, at the Hotel Lanier, in
Room 1913. After my proposition that he
name the six gentlemen aforesaid came out in
the Augusta Chronicle of Sunday, July 10, I
was so we'll satisfied that Hardwick would
rush over to Macon and make frantic efforts
to keep the lid on, that I sent man from
Thomson to match him. It cost me forty dol
lars to keep up with that one squirt of our
burglarious Congressman, but I feel that it
was worth the money.
Gentlemen, is it nothing to you that you are
represented by such creature as this? Does
your sense of public duty suggest nothing in
the premises? You are honorable men: are
you willing that dishonorable man should
continue to be your Representative?

ATLANTA, GA, AUGUST 4, 1910.
An Appeal to Six Gentlemen i'm the
Tenth Georgia District


THE names of the gentlemen are as follows:
Hon. Adolphus Strother, Amity, Ga.
DR.. Forrest Phillips, Harlem Ga.
DR.. t. J. NJ. Kelly, Gibson, Ga.
Mr.. f. j. Wilkerson, Thomson, Ga.
Mr.. S. H. Rhodes, Crawfordville, Ga
Heretofore Hon. T. E. Massengale of Nor
wood, Ca has been included in this list; but
as he is candidate for the Legislature, it
would not be fair to press him further There
fore [ substitute the name of DR.. Wyman
Pitcher, of Warenton, Ga.
1t was proposed by me to Hardwick that
he select these gentlemen to act as o. commit
tee of investigation, with six others named by
me; and with three others, to be selected by
the twelve. Mr.. Hardwick, knowing how
easily my charges could be substantiated, took
refuge in the pitiable plea that he would be
lowering himself by accepting such a propo-
sition. lie aoouzd haze jumped at may offer, If
he had not been guilty, as charged.
But now put it to the six gentlemen whom
I have named, whether they do not, as good
citizens, feel profoundly concerned. Each of
these gentlemen has had civic responsibility
thrown upon him. Each of them is looked
up to in the community in which he lives.
according as he shall treat this proposition,
acM each one be praised or censured during
the balance Of his hfe
They are hereby requested to consent to act
in the capacity aforesaid, for the purpose of
ascertaining whether or not Hardwick is a fit
man to represent the Tenth Congressional
District
What effect will it have upon the young men
of this generation, if these prominent gentle
men should virtually say, by their refusal to
take action in the premises, that they are not
sufficiently interested in the good character of
their representative to investigate the subject?
Will it not have a demoralizing influence, to
have it understood that they don't care wheth-
er or not their Congressman is drunkard
and a most dishonest gambler? Is it mat
ter of no consequence that he burgza11ged the
Ordinarys office IN Washington County, and
stole the tan f. fa.'s against the Democratic
defauzters, thereby defeating the DiW of the
people and rob6img those 'acho lad been L.
g0zzy elected to office?
Hardwick is a lawyer, am ashamed to say
Here is the oath which he had to take in open
court:
IT, Thomas w. Hardwick swear that I will Just
ly and uprightly demean myself according to the
laws attorney, counselor, and solicitor, and
that will support and defend the Constitution of
the United States and the Constitution of the State
of Georgia, So help me God"

Indians TO Fight
Allotment Sales


Lawon, Okla Dec. 2.-Itsis learned
here that many congressman favor the
proposition Of selling off so acres from
each 16O-acre allotment belonging to
the $500 members of the Kiowa-Co-
manche and allied tribes. 1t is their
belief that the Indian vii. find the
smaller tract more suitable To farm
ing. From the money derived from
sale Of the other portion Of the land
Improvements are to be made.
Chief Quanah Parker, Captain Ar
rows Eschiti and all the other out
chiefs and individual members are en-
tering their protest against any dimin-
ishing Of their present quarters. Only
few years ago they knew not the
limits Of their land, horses and cat
tie. To-day they realize their depep-
dency upon the government They will
not consent to any further division Of
their holdings. Chief Quanah Parker

Several Changes in
Indian appropriation

Washington, Dec. 2.-The house
committee on Indian affairs has dele
gated Chairman Burke and Represea
tatives Campbell of Kansas al
Stephens OF Texas as a subcommittee
to prepare the Indian appropriations
bill The draft Of the bill now before
the committee, which was prepared by
The commissioner Of Indian affairs,
contains several interesting changes.
The Dawes commission Is allowed
100000 this year against 100000 last
year
There will be an appropriation Of
100000 for the continuance Of the
Chilocco Indian school in Northwes-
tern Oklahoma. Last year Representa-
tive Mcclure sought to have congress
donate this school property, amount
ing to 10000 acres, to the state OF Ok
lahoma for an asylum but the Indian
commission, which visited the prop
eFty this summer, finds it is too yalu-
able gift to deed to the state.
The appropriations of last year OF
s75,O0O for general educational pur-
poses for the Indians will not be con
tinued; in former years this approDria-
tion was 100000 year.
There will be appropriated, as last
year 100000 to continue the work Of
Indian agencies, but this year the mon
ey will be available for Western Okla
homa as well as for the eastern part
OF the state This means that three
agencies that were closed this year
will be re-opened next year
