Who Will Succeed the Brilliant, Big
Hearted DOlliver assza ---

The legislature of Iowa has killed the bill
to refer to direct primary the choice of sue
cessor to the late Senator Dolliver. He was
one of the Insurgents, you know
The direct primary bill was defeated by
two votes. Taoenty-eight Democrats IN the
legislature refused to cote. Any three of
these so-called Democrats would have assured
the passage of the bill, and the election of an
Insurgent to succeed Dolliver
Now remember:
Democratic members of the legislature Of
Illinois elected Lorimer the Republican:
Democratic legislators elected Lippltt, of
Rhode Island Republican,
Democratic votes were cast in the Massa-
chusetts legislature for Lodge, the lnsolent,
stand-pat Republican.
And the Republicans Of the Nea0 YORK;
legislature are refusing to assist the Insurg-
ent Democrats to defeat the notorious Shee
han, the Tammany and Wall Street candi-
date for u. S. Senator!
How much more evidence will 1t take to
convince you, that q certain element IN both
the old parties stand for the same things?
Let us drive that element into open and
full exposure, while we genuine Democrats
assume control of our party, and cooperate
with the Insurgents of the West.
That is the only hope of the South. The
two great agricultural sections must act to-
gether and free themselves from the Eastern
and Northern robbers.

The Extravaganza of the Federal
Government

Probably ten million people, old and young,
black and white, toll in the winds of March,
the rains of April, the torrid heat of August,
to raise cotton. From old Virginia to Ala
bama and Texas, the host of workers is
busily engaged, from one end of the year to
the other producing the snowy staple
But with all the combined industry of these
moiling millions, the South cannot be made
to ylezd enough cotton to pay the eupense of
Tunnlng the Federal Government!
The crop of 1910 was eleven and quarter
million bales. Let us say that the average
weight was 500 pounds, and the average price,
10 cents. How much does that come to? Eight
hundred and forty-one millions, seven hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars.
$841, 75O,OOO
That's huge sum Of money! isn't it?
But ats not enough to 7'un the Federal Co..
e47Nnoent.
That one governmental institution costs
you, every year, thousand mo5zzi0m dollars
$1,000, 100000!
Only of late has that stupendous total of
expenditure been reached. Most of the in
crease was under Roosevelt
Taft IS just as bad. [ actually believe that
Taft loses sleep and walks the floor at nights
trying to think up new ways of wasting pub
lie money.
For what concealed purpose?
10 tu1~ash an apparent necessity for imo-
moderate Tariff rates.
few years ago the cost of the Federal
Government was less than third of the value
OF the cotton crop: n02O, more than hundred
million dollars In excess of it

A Local Jeffersonian For Thomson

AS soon as we can make the necessary ar
rangements we will begin to publish The
D9f;; 2Gc; ct! Local weekly paper
at Thomson. The town already has one
paper-and a good one-but there is ample
room for another
j. d. Watson will be the Editor, and Mrs.
Lyle will assist him in the business manage
ment. Mrs. Agnes Watson Lee will act as
Society reporter Leonard Lee will solicit
ads and subscriptions, and will pick up items
of news.
The people of Thomson and of McDuffe
county generally are evidently disposed to
give the young people a cordial welcome and
helpful encouragement Many subscriptions
are being taken, IN advance, and nearly all
of the available advertising space has been
sold
The Progressive Democrat will not only
publish all the local happenings, but will
carry terse editorials on State and National
matters of Importance. It expects to have
hand in politics Georgia politics, especially
1t may also have a word to say about the
manner in which our town and county affairs
are conducted, and about the management of
our schools.
In short The Progressive Democrat will be
as independent and outspoken about local and
State matters, as THE JEFFERsoNIAN and

Nobody who is acting right, doing his duty,
and honestly earning what the public pays

The Progressive Democrat
But officials who are unfaithful and men
who persist in illegal practices which are
hurtful to the community, will find in our
local paper a search-light that will make the
true state of things visible to all who are
willing to know.
Our purpose is to benefit and uplift hui
manity, doing as much good as possible, by
unselfsh devotion to the best interests of the
people, as God gives us to see it.
The Progressive Democrat will have no
wrongs to avenge, to feuds to perpetuate, no
bitter memories of the past. 1t starts with a

The Catholic Priest of the Law: Jus
tice Whites Appointment

In the Detroit Free Press of Feb. 5, 1911,
appears letter, dated Feb. 4, 1911, and
signed, "Rev. Charles O'Reilly, S. T. D."
This priest boasts that he has performed the
marriage ceremony uniting a white girl to
"colored gentleman; ;" and that he will do so
again in defiance Of the State law against it.
He says that the rule of the Catholic church
compels his obedience and most insolently
declares that he would ''rot in jail' before he
would pay a fine for violating the Statute of
Michigan.
He states that many Catholic clergymen,
Bishops and priests are the offspring of
mixed marriages-that is, mulattos
His position is the orthodox Catholic atti-
tude. 1t was so stated by Bishop Kelly, Of
Savannah, Ga, at the time the French re-
public was driving the papal wolves out
In other words, the Catholic looks to Rome
and to the Italians for their supreme control
No good Cathonc can take the oath of allegi-
ance to the United States without mental
reservation.
When President Taft jumped the Jesuit
bred White to the highest place on the highest
court in the world he struck fearful blow
against the future of this republic.
White is bigoted Catholic who. at
public function not long ago, fell on his knees
to kiss the ring on the finger of an Italian
priest.
Isn't it national calamity to have at the
head of our Judiciary system man who
would feel it to be his religious duty to set
aside a law of his country, if it conficted
with custom or a canon of his church?
Harlan, of Kentucky, has been on the
bench longer than White; and he is a far
ADLER lawyer.
Not being a Catholic, he had to submit to
the modification of having junior and an
inferior jumped over his head.
Taft was reported as saying that he did
not wish to make Whites appointments; but
yielded to tremendous pressure"
The tremendous PRESSURE" which our Pres
1dent IS not strong enough to resist, emanates
from Italy.

FARMER WANTS
DITCH BRIDGE

Farmers in the Delta district are
over the lack of a
bridge across No. 3 ditch at Twen-
tieth street. which was removed
some time since and has not been
re-established.
A petition was presented to the
old city council for the bridge to be
placed at this point, but it was not
acted upon before the old council
went out of office. 1t is possible
that another petition will be pre-
sented to the new council.
The bridge was a great conven-
ience to the farmers driving into the
city. Without the bridge in place
it is necessary to drive a consider
able distance around to get into the
city from the Delta district.

tio, were taken Monday at meet
ing of a score OF attorneys from

rically unanimous in favor OF the

GREELEY WINS
FROM LA SALE

Greeley came out ahead in the
game with LaSalle Sunday after
noon, by a score of to 2. The con-
test was not a very exciting affair.
only an occasional play drawing ap-
plause from the few shivering fans
that braved the weather. The UNI
piring was pretty rank but LaSalle
stood for it, with only few kicks.
All scores made on both sides were
the results OF misplays.
The Greeley team was strength
ened by LaSalle at second and Marsh
behind the bat. The new second
baseman looks good and was the
star fielder of the day, picking up a
hot grounder that saved the game.
