GOVERNMENT PLANS TO ''.' CATCH CHINAMEN

Mobile. January e.--Two departments of the United States government have made elaborate preparations to intercept a cargo of 20 Chinese on their way to scranton, Miss They are coming on the American schooner c. M Cochran from Kingston, Jamaica. When the Cochran enters Mississippi sound she will be met by the revenue cutter Winona and a special officer of the department of jus tice, w. T, Dorsey of Washington. and a tug, containing special officers of the immigration department from New Dr. jeans and Mobile 3i .+.
 Some conflict seems to exist between the two departments in. this case. and 1t has leaked out that the immigration officers and the specials from Washington arc not working hand in hand. The first de- partment reaching the schooner will make the Chinese prisoners and apart from the importance of the measures taken to counteract the smuggling there Is some excitement promised In the race for pos session of the Orientals. The Cochran Is returning from Kingston light after cargo to be taken to Guadaloupe.

AMPLE PROVISION WILL BE
MADE TO HOUSE ALL WHO
COME ON JULY 4.

Dear Mr.. Watson: Allow me to
express my sincere thanks for the
nice and kind expressions in regard
to the little speech J. made al your
wonderful bouse-warming, appearing
in the last JeffersOnian. That was
truly a great meeting and one that l
predict will be instrumental in puri-
flying Georgia and national politics..
1t is gratifying to know that the
meeting will be annual, and each year
the meetings will become larger and
more potential. But / am at loss
to know how the little city of Thorn
son can accommodate the guests at
such meetings. My own county
(Franklin) which had three delegates
present at the first meeting will, if
am not mistaken, send from fifty to
one hundred on the 4th Of July. The
town of Thomson will derive much
commercial benefit and advertising
from these meetings and they should
join you in preparing an annual bar
becue and in helping you entertain
the large crowds that will attend each
year. 1t is too much for one man
to do and I suggest that if Thomson
uO0o HOC give you proper CO-Op0Id-
ton, that you call for contributions
from your readers al large. If living,
l hope to be with you on the 4th and
expect to see the largest crowd ever
assembled at a like meeting in Geor-
gia. Arrangements should also be
made with the railroads for cheap
rates. Hope you will not think me
presumptious in making these sug-
gestions. Your time is so taken up
with your work that [ feel that you
should be relieved Of those details
and your friends look after them for
you.
But back to our meeting during
the holidays: I have attended many
meetings of various kinds, but never
have [ seen so much enthusiasm, so
much unselfish patriotism or so much
genuine loyalty exhibited, as was ex-
hibited in that one short day. The

WE INTEND TO BECOME VERY
MUCH MORE OF A FACTOR
IN THE POLITICS OF TEXAS.

My Dear Sir: | am Just an or
binary country school teacher, but I
have boy who, of course, is extra
ordinary. He is only one year old.
| should like to purchase for him a
few shares of JEFF stock, and it is
the environment under which he
would be placed, that prompts me to
consider the investment
While you, | presume, are con-
versant with Texas politics, | will,
nevertheless, take occasion to express
the belief that a small amount of
time and labor, judiciously expended,
would yield profitable results for
The Jeffs. The Bailey and anti-Bailey
feeling is intense. Among those of
my very small acquaintance, eight or
ten men have Topped to the Socialists
during the past few years. The Jeffs,
perhaps, would have held most of
these in check. In any event, Insur-
gency is rife in Texas, the reform is
on and I'm sure The jeff is a winner
if you can place it before the people.
Consider now the interest you feel in
the administration of Georgia affairs;
for a second thought, consider your
friends, "Calico Charley" ct ais, then
| believe you can easily pardon my
seeming presumption in this matter.
Expressing highest esteem for you,
and assuring you that your labors are
bearing fruits, even in the "Wild and
Woody West" | subscribe,
Yours very truly,
Token, Tex. J. G. TAYLOR.
