Gratis in an honest endeavor to revise
the tariff downward from the Aldrich-
Payne rates. The indications are that
if Mr.. Taft obtains a denomination the
Roosevelt and La Toilette hosts will
hardly raise their fingers, much less
their voices, to help him.
Democratic Prospects Bright.
Prospects for the election of
Democratic president have never been
brighter" declares Hon. James T.
Lloyd of Missouri, chairman of the
National Democratic Congressional
committee, who was in charge of the
campaign which resulted in the pres
ent heavy Democratic majority in the
House. "The Democratic party is
popular from one end of the country
to the other because the present House
has carried out prediction promises,
and made a creditable showing in
every way" continued Mr.. Lloyd.
1.-THE many investigations conducted
by Democratic committees have
shown to the satisfaction of every in
telligent man in the country that the
Republicans are guilty of mal-admin-
istration, and should be relieved of
power"

Triumphs of the Democrats
in a New Era of Lawmaking

The triumphs of Democracy are
told in the important work of the
Sixty-Second Congress, made possible
only by the united support of the
Democrats and the, aid of handful of
Republican insurgents, says the Re-
public.

Ex-President Roosevelt has an
nounced that he would esteem it a
genuine calamity if he were brought
forward in 1912. The Colonel is GER
family right. 1t would indeed be a

more of a calamity to the Colonel per-

strength of his alleged popularity.

Bills Vetoed and Their Provisions.
Wool Tariff Revision-A compro-

measure and the insurgent Republican
Senate bill, which proposed sweeping
reduction of the tariff taxes now COL

ground that it subjects the Southern

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Special Washington Correspond
ent of The Times.

ent of The Times.
By Clyde H. Tavenner.
Washington, D. C.-The Taft ad-
ministration will not now dare to car
ry out the plot to drive DR.. Harvey
w. Wiley from the government SER
vice.
This thought must have suggested
itself time and again to the minds of
the men and women who crowded
the Moss investigating committee
rooms and heard DR.. Wiley lay bare
the startling facts of a systemized
fight against him because he insisted
that food manufacturers keep their
products pure.
At times, as DR.. Wiley told Of the
fierce persecution he had endured,
his voice almost broke, and he could
proceed only with difficulty. At times
also the committee members, utterly
dumbfounded by the doctors state
ments, were at loss as to what ques-
tons to ask him next.
Not only was it shown that Doctor
Wiley's efforts to serve the public
and protect it from injurious and
poisonous substances in food prepare
tons had been absolutely blocked by
the conspirators in the administration
headed by Secretary Of Agriculture
Wilson and his controlling influence,
Solicitor McCabe, but that the latest
effort to force Doctor Wiley out of
office was based upon letter which
he never received and knew nothing
about.
Not boastfully or eagerly, but in re-
Spouse to questions by members of
the committee, Doctor Wiley recited
the universities at which he had
studied, the great scientific societies
at home and abroad which have
honored him in various ways, and the
recital went long way in revealing
to the committee the great public
spirit and sympathy of this man who
possessed courage in public duty
which neither threats from official
sources nor opposition by the powers
of evil had been able to break down.
While the whole hearing was sue
cession of revelations that left the
committees and spectators thunder
struck, the most astonishing testimony
came when DR.. Wiley told of his ef-
forts to prevent the use of alum and
dioxide in food products.
"Alum, used in foods" said DR..
Wiley, especially in baking powder,
is responsible for the large amount of
constipation that is prevalent through
out the country. l considered its use
4 serious danger to public health, and
wanted it stopped pending an investi-
CATION. But the other two members
Of the referee board overruled me, as
they invariably did, and the use Of
alum is still permitted.
Another case involved the use Of
sulphur dioxide. Dunlap and McCabe
recommended that We discontinue the |

STATEHOOD MEASURE
IS SIGNED BY TAFT
After 20 Years on Threshold, Arizona
and New Mexico May Enter
Union.

Washington, D. c., Aug. q. After
knocking at the door of the Union
continuously for twenty years, the
Territories of Arizona and New Mex
leo today were permitted to enter and
take seats in the vestibule.
President Taft, at 3:O8 p. m., at
tached his signature to the resolution
providing for the admission of the two
remaining Territories which are con-
tiguous to the United States. Pre-
viously Vice President Sherman and
Speaker Clark had signed the docu-
ment, attesting its approval by Con-
gress.
Only the territories themselves now
can hold up the issuance of the proc
lamation adding two stars to the
national ensign.
While the enabling act is now
amended to admit these two Terri
tories, both of them will have to hold
elections before the admission be-
comes a fact. In New Mexico it will
be necessary for the people to vote
on an amendment to make the Con-
stitution easier to amend in the future.
Arizona is in the same position.
The Constitution Of that Territory
must be amended by striking out the
recall of judiciary before il becomes
q law.

As the rule had been adopted after a
most exhaustive investigation was
convinced that to do away with it

Wilson, asking for hearing. But

Administration Stenographers.
Here is a story of two Taft admins
tration stenographers which shows
how hard it is to work for the govern
ment these days and remain honest.
F. M. Kerby, stenographer for the
late Secretary of the Interior Bal
linger, exploded the whole Ballinger
defense by bringing to light the
"Lawler memorandum" Kerby
wrote this memorandum, and knew,
therefore, that President Taft's letter
generating Ballinger was antedated
and clear frame up to clear the Sec
rotary. And because he revealed in
formation which came to him in his
confidential capacity as stenographer
Ballinger called him unworthy" and
discharged him.
Now contrast this with the case of
Miss Carrie H. Davis, stenographer to
DR.. L. F. Kebler, of the bureau of
chemistry. In his campaign to GUST
DR.. Wiley, Solicitor McCabe locked
Miss Davis in room, and "sweated"
her for three hours because she re-
fused to divulge confidential informa-
ton which McCabe thought he could
use against Wiley.
Kerby broke confidence because
he placed truth above loyalty, and
was discharged. Miss Davis refused
to break confidence, and for that
she was cruelty chastised by a subor-
dinate in an administration, the high
officials of which frequently pirate
about ethics.
A Four-Ply Monopoly.
One of the first facts developed by
the Stanley steel investigating COM
mittee was that the inner ring of steel
trust directors actually dominated the
boards of directors of nearly every
important railroad in the country.
Then it came to light that the same
ruling spirits Of the steel trust also CO.
operated with and practically domi-
mated Standard Oil. And now it de-
velops that four Of the six directors
of the harvester trust are also direct
ors of the steel trust. In other words,
the steel trust, the railroads, Standard
Oil and the harvester trust (all star
contributors to Republican campaign
funds) are dominated by the same
of men. And these, in turn,
take their orders from one man, Mr..
j. P. Morgan.

THE TRICK oE THAT COLLAR.

| Daniel Frohman, in his Memories
OF a Manager" tells of muscular
trick by which F. F. Mackay achieved
an astonishing stage effect. It was
in Bronson Howards "One of Our
Girls" Mr. Mackay was playing the
part of a French count who, in one
OF the chief situations of the play, is
slapped in the face with a glove by
an English officer. Mr.. Howard's
idea was that the count should be-
come violent and furious at the af-
front, but Mr.. Mackay contended that
as he had been shown in the play to
be an expert duellist and accustomed
to danger, he was not likely to lose
control of himself Mr.. Howard saw
the point. The result was that the
Frenchman received the insult with
out the movement of a muscle. He
stood rigid. Only a flash of the eve
tor an instant revealed his emotion.
Then the audience saw his face grow
red and then pale. This was follow
ed by the quiet announcement from
the count that he would send his sec
onds to the Englishman. This exhi-
bition of facial emotion betrayed by
the visible rush of blood to the ac-
tors face was frequently noted at
the time. 1t was a muscular trick. Mr.
Mackay put on tight collar for that
scene and strained his neck against
1t until the blood came, and when he
released the pressure and the blood
receded the effect was reached

where the necessary repairs were eff
fected. A new captain was brought
down from the coast, and he took her
out of Honolulu on April 2S last. The

The property OF the Laurel Mills

at public auction before the court
house door in Marietta Monday at 10
o'clock.
There was a fair-sized crowd of in
terested people present, but the bids
were not what was expected, and the
trustee will recommend to the court
that the bids be not confirmed.
The real estate and tenement
houses were put up first as parcel No.

American National Bank of Atlanta.
The machinery and equipment was
next put up and was bid in by the
American National Bank for $4,000.
Then both these parcels were put up
as a whole and were knocked down
to Col. J. P. Brooke, of Alpharetta, for
$31, 500. The manufactured goods and
stock were then sold to various par
ties in small lots, and some of these
bids will be recommended for accept
ance, to the court, by the trustee.

DEATH OF MRS. GEORGE CAMP

After protracted illness Mrs.
George H. Camp passed away on Fri

her home on Kennesaw avenue.
She was eighty-two years old and
had lived in Marietta nearly fifty
years. She was Miss Jane Mcintosh

Mrs. Camps children are Mrs.
Richard H. Field, of Kansas City; DR..
Walter A. Camp, of Springfield, Mo;
Mrs. John T. Brantley, of Blackshear,
and Miss Sallie Camp, of Marietta.
The funeral was conducted by Mrs.
Camps pastor, DR.. j. H. Patton, of
the Presbyterian Church. He read
selections from the Scriptures and
spoke of the modest, womanly mother
whose Heavenly Father had called her
to eternal rest. Her life was like
steady light in her home and her
church and its radiance would remain
as a benediction like the after-glow of
