As a youth he was more popular than

AS TO DOG TAXES.

Dear Sir:-Will you please allow
me to trespass on your valuable time
long enough to ask your opinion on
the dog tax law, as it is now being
enforced. Do you not think that a
man ought to have the right to value
his dog as he does his horse or his
barn? For instance, say that you
have a dog worth one hundred dol
lars, and [ had one not worth more
than five. Is it a just law that will
make me pay as much for my dog as
you have to pay?
If you can spare space in your
valuable paper to print such a trife,
please answer in the weekly jeff.
Well I will close by saying that l
want you to wipe the face of the
earth up with the Rev J. w. Bailey.

Answer.
The license to keep a dog, (Which,
really, is the true meaning of the dog
tax laW,) proceeds upon the same
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1910-06-30

principle as our poll tax, or license
to keep saloon, or butchers shop
in town or city. The value OF the
thing licensed is not considered. The
privilege is supposed to be equal in
each case, and it is the privilege
which is taxed For instance, the ne
gro pays a dollar upon his kinky
head, while you pay no more than
dollar upon yours. And, yet, from
every possible point of view, your
head is very much more valuable to
the State and to the race than that
Of the negro.
In like manner, where one wishes
to keep a dog, it is supposed that the
privilege will be worth certain
amount to him, else he would not
exercise it. Some men prefer a cur
dog, because it is "sharp" and watch
full and, therefore, valuable as a
guardian Of the premises, particular
ly at night. Another man wants to

keep a hound, or a pack Of hounds,
for the pleasure of the chase. Then,
again, in some families, the small
dogs called flee will be kept, either
for the pleasure of the children, or
because they, themselves, really make
very vigilant guardians Of the house,

RANDELL OF TEXAS IS A GOOD
MAN

Dear Sir:-I write to ask you in
reference to our Congressman, Mr.
Randell's, record in Congress on the
tariff and other things that we're in
terested in
He is a candidate again for Con-
gress, with a strong opponent We
are for him, and would like to know
if you think he is reliable.
The fight against him is a per-
sonal matter between him and Joe
Bailey; he, Bailey, is trying to have
him beat.
Randell is staying in Washington
attending to his own affairs. while
his opponents are stumping against
him:
Give us Bailey's record on the tariff
and other matters. We are opposed
to him, and want every shot at him
we can get. Let us hear through the
next jeff. Respectfully,
Owens, Tex. FARMER.
Answer.
While [ am not familiar with Mr..
Randell's entire record, my attention
has been attracted towards him for
several years on account of some
splendid speeches which he has made
in Congress on the right side of public
questions. The mere fact that Bailey
is fighting him is the strongest cir
cumstantial evidence that he ought to
be returned to Congress. Senator
Bailey is even now voting with the
railroad corporations to prevent the
passage of bills which are on their
way through Congress for control of
provisions necessary to the protection
of travellers and shippers. The Cum
mings Amendment, for instance, pro-
posed that the approval of the Inter-
State Commerce Commission should
be obtained before passenger and
freight rates could be advanced SEN
atOr Bailey was one of the few Demo-
Gratis who voted with the Aldrich Re-
publicans against this amendment
The people of Texas will make no
mistake if they catalogue Bailey with
the Senators who belong to corpora
tons. I regret extremely to say this.
Everybody knows how we'll | once
thought of him. T. E. W.

Answer.
1t gives me pleasure to furnish the
explanation desired. In 1908, there
seemed to be a fine opportunity for
our Peoples Party independent move
ment. After the Democratic Con-
Vention adjourned, a wave of dissat-
isfaction swept throughout the coun-
try. Especially was this true of the
South. She had been insulted by the
and she had been denied any recog-
milton in the choice of Presidential
candidates. The Georgia delegation,
particularly. had been made the OBJ
ject Of outrageous insult The Has
kell brass bands jerringly played
marching thro' Georgia. at the
Georgia delegates, and made a rush
upon the banner for the purpose of
throwing it down and trampling upon
it. Therefore, it seemed that fine
opportunity was presented to take
the State of Georgia out of the Demo-
cratic column, and thus demonstrate
that the Solid South would not sub

which the other sections might see
fit to visit upon US.
1t must be apparent to all thinkers
that the South will never amount to
anything politically, as long as the
North believes that we will submit
to anything perpetrated in the name
of organized Democracy Had | been
able to carry the State of Georgia
out Of the Democratic columns, it
would have created a national sensa-
ton, and the result would have been
wholly beneficial to the South No
greater service could be rendered to
our section than to impress the other
sections with the belief that we are
determined to have, hereafter,
square deal i'm National politics.
For this reason, and because we
really had no organization outside
the State, and no chance to do any
thing, my efforts were concentrated
in my home State. We had no cam
paign fund to meet the expenses of
a fight in other States. Our National
Committee neglected. thp huSineSS tO

in, but that part of the town is out

the ground was covered by about
ten inches Of snOw-it having been
showing since Tuesday highland
it was n difficult task for help to
get there. The nearer neighbors
turned out ana gave what help tHey
could, but with no water and the
difficulty of working in the deep
snow little could be done, and when
those from farther away arrived the
flames had done their work. Mr..
and Mrs, Patrick and the children
were given temporary shelter in the
home OF Mr.. Bcss, near ucighbor.
1t was Il terribly bitter morning to
be turned adrift homeless and dis
couraged with the loss Of all they
possessed.
The house was neat stOry-and-a-
half frame cottage, which Mr.. Pat
rick had bought through the build
ing and loan association, and was
covered by an insurance Of 81 200.
