~ pair of snow-shoes If you wish to
~ be in the swim. You get a
modest, humble pair for six dollars, or
you can get the silver-mounted kind with
rubies in the heels for fifty dollars.
Then you wait for a moonlight night.
The brighter the moon the palmer you
can see your feet.
You strap the snow-shoes on. You have
learned to do that at home. 1t isn't
half SO hard as carrying a ton of coal
up to the fourth floor

shoe which seems to be 16 feet long

your other leg, tangle you up, and as
you lie on the broad of your back you

then make q dash for it.
You were not hit by a trolley car.
The toe of one shoe hit you under the
chin, and the heel of the other in the
back of the head, and you went down to
rest. Wait quarter of an hour and try
it again. 1t takes little time to get the
hang of snow-shoeing
Oh, well, If you can't get away from

kick you all over at once-if it's a fall

everybody that the reason you don't
snowshoe is because you promised your
grandmother on her dying bed not to.

Dear Mr.. Watson:-I notice that
some one has written you relative to
an SO account which the Golden Age
had charged up to a tired subscriber.
My mother had a similar experience
with this same paper. Some five
years ago my sister, who was then
a student at Monroe College, ordered
the paper sent to my mothers ad-
dress for some six months or year.
The paper kept coming. Those same
insulting duns came to my mother
that others seemed to have received.
| did not intend for this account to
be paid, and so informed this col
lecting agency in language that was
unmistakable, but my sister sent the
So without knowing I did not want
it paid.
But Willie DIS paper may have
put joke over on me that hits the
lick below the belt About five
years ago our friend Willie D. was
offering the girls who would get up
certain number of subscribers to
The Golden Age free scholarships to
Bessie Tiff College. A young lady
who had been there and wished to
return came to me in her campaign
for subscribers. I did not care to
subscribe, as the paper was already

ANOTHER LIE NAILED BY MIR.
WATSON.

Dear Sir:-As it has been thrown
up to us WatsOnians that, during the
Marion Butler campaign, you stump
ed the State of North Carolina for
Marion Butler, and, as a result of
his election, white men were forced
to work under negro bosses, please
answer through The JeffersOnian
and settle the matter,-as it occurred
before my recollection.
T. M. Under.
Hazlehurst, Georgia.
Answer.
| never made a speech for Marion
Butler in my life. I have fought
that black-hearted traitor ever since
the fusion deal of 1895. I had moth
ing in the world to do with his cleo
ton to the Senate, and made no
1904, when I spoke at Newton in my
own behalf. This, as you know, was
long after the days of Marion But
ler's domination in North Carolina
So far from it's being true that I
helped Marion Butler to come into
power in North Carolina, one of the
most bitter denunciations that I ever
made of anybody, was made of that
scoundrel in 1896, after his betrayal
of me, and the Populists generally,
in that Presidential campaign. It
was his fusion with the Republicans
that put him in the Senate. I al
ways opposed fusion. T. E. w.

by any one South, or anywhere. If
you didn't happen to see it, I'd like
to mail you a copy of the Charleston

He will read those extracts from
the speeches of Toombs, Yancey,
Hill, Stephens, and others, with great
relish [ know it from what I saw
of him in Charleston at the banquet
of the New England Society held in
Charleston on the 22d Of December,
where he was the guest of the So
ciety at the invitation of Editor
Hemphill, and other distinguished
Charlestonians.

PEOPLE TO BLAME FOR MANY
ABUSES.

Dear Sir:-In your weekly Jeffer-
sonian of February 10, 1910, you
comment on Hon. Samuel Gompers
in regard to the judgment of the
Danbury Hat Company of $4,000.
*
You say if an insolent employer
of labor should pursue you from
place to place, from city to city, from
State to State, cutting you out from
work, rObbing you of the right to
live, you can turn upon him.
Now, sir, I have seen some of that
kind of work on the railroads in the
year of 1894 in the A. r. u. strike.
[ know of members being arrested,
put in Jail and when let out were
prevented from getting work with
any other railroad company When
the President, the courts, judges and
most all lawyers we're controlled by
the railroad company what show
did poor man stand against the
whole power, be he ever so honest
and right? He simply stood no
show. Our families could starve or
die. We got no protection, no work,
nor any damages. Why should the
Danbury Hat Company get damages?
yours truly,
CHAS. G.. DAHLGREN,
Polk, Nebraska.
Answer.
Two wrongs never made a right.
We cannot cast out evil by initiating
it. The thing for each individual to
do is, to stand for the Right.
Our people are to blame for the
situation in which they find them
selves. They made the bed on which
they lie. They elected the men who
passed the laws which grind us.
Some of the bitterest enemies of new
reform parties are the victims of the
legislation put upon the common
people by the two old parties. Lots
of voters would remain Republicans
and Democrats, although it means
Black List persecution and hungry
families, than to break away from
the Grand Old Party, and strike
manfully for a new party which will
represent the people. T.E.W.
