clerk to boss your store; or your striker to
manage your blacksmith shop; or your wood
chopper to rule your farm; or your lot boy to
domineer at the barn; or your house-servants
to do what they chose to do with your domes-
tic affairs.
For instance, you elected Democrats to rep
resent you in Congress, and they pledged
themselves to give you relief from oppressive
taxation. Did they do it? The only measure
they helped to pass at the session oUhich pre-
ceeded the December recess q0os one a07eich
adds $7O,OOO,OOO q gear to your burdens.
Betrayal of trust could not be more shock
ing. What could you do about it? You could
remember 1t. and at the elections nent gear,
discharge those SERVANTS. Not a single Demo
cratic Congressman from the South stood up
for you, excepting Underwood. EVERY ONE
OF THE OTHERS WENT BACK ON
YOU.
Can't you remember that, when the pri-
maries come on, next summer? If you do, you
will take long stride in the way of compel
ling your public servants to be faithful; and
if you can once do that, your condition will
soon improve.
Bad men make bad zaoOs, and bad lars make
bad conditions. You can, choose good mem qOho
eoiW make good zaa0s, and IN that aOay bring
about good conditions.

What Roosevelt Says OF the McNamaras,
and What He Said OF John Brown

kH r. ROOSEVELT is again a candidate
lVA for the Presidency. He has not said
so, in words; but the action Of his
friends, taken in connection with his receptive
attitude and his attack on Mr.. Taft, are suf-
ficiently significant. In his defense of the
Steel Trust and of Big Business generally he
has made a loud bid for the support Of Wall
Street, and Morganheim interests and Preda-
tory Privilege. In his unmeasured denuncia-
ton of the McNamaras, he follows up his
chosen line and endeavors to cinch Dollar
support.
The headline of his editorial was "Murder
is Murder" Then he says:
''The murders committed by the McNam-
aras, although nominally in the interest of
organized labor, differ not one whit in moral
culpability from those committed by the
Black Hand, or by any band of mere cut
Threats and are fraught with an infinitely
heavier menace to society,""
But is Mr.. Roosevelt right when he says
that murder is murder?" Since when, has
he reached that conclusion?
Surely he did not believe that murder is
murder when he was delivering his fervid
eulogy on old John Brown, at the unwilling
of the monument, in Kansas, last year. Sure
ly, he would not have journeyed halfway
across the continent to praise man-killer, if
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1911-12-21

wasn't it so in the case Of John Brown! The
man who, last, year, aided in the canonization
OF the Kansas butcher might. this year, take
broader, Juster view Of the Mcnamara broth
ers. Ii they are mere cut throats. why weren't
John Brown and his cleaver gang ''Inere cut
throats?"
And why were not the Jacobins of the
French Revolution "mere cut throats?" And
why were not the Bostonians of the Tea Par
ty-al of whom carried away to their homes
as much of the tea as they could conceal
mere pillagers and robbers?
1t all depends on the motive Everybody
knows that the McNamaras were not acting
upon their own motion They were under
orders Taking the bull by the horns, I ask
this question, and [ should like to see Roose-
welt answer it:
From what source do the Carnegies and
tricks and Hoffstots derive their authority
to have men, women and children shot down
like dogs?
What sane man fails to see that zaaczessness
on the port Of Capitol, has had its logical
frultage in the lawlessness of Labor?
Mind you L do not justify the McNamaras.
They did wrong and are being punished
But the men of Big Business also do wrong.
and are not punished.
That's the difference, and that's what is
breeding diabolical passions throughout the
underworld.

A Look Backward and Forward, As the Year Closes

THERE are lots of things to think about,
as the December days pass by
While the little ones are looking for
ward with eager expectation to the annual
rounds of Santa Claus, and the grown-ups are
preparing for the holidays, many man is
sorely troubled over the homely old question
of making tongue and buckle meet. Cotton
hos sold bezoao the cost Of production; money
is scarce; trade is dull; the common run of
people are down hearted On all sides you
hear such talk as this:
''Hoa0 are q0e to get relief? We don't price
anything that aoe bug, nor o1'ything that ne
sell. We are sheared, coming and going, and
qOe can't help oursezves."
My son. it's your own fault that you are in
such bad fix. You have neglected your most
important business You have not watched
your most dangerous servants. You minded
your store, diligently; your shop, also; your
farm. also. You kept sharp eye on the clerk,
the bookkeeper, the farm hand, the lot boy,
the house servant
But y0wr public business and your public
SERVANTS, you did not a00tch.
You have allowed them to do as they please,
for such length of time, that positions have
become reversed. They are not yosw' servants,
but yoar masters.
1t is the same as though you permitted your

WON'T YOU DO IT?


In my Tariff Primer" this is made so plain
that anyone can understand it.
During this year we Progressives in Geor-
ga have been hard at work on this line.
Against great odds, we have re-captured the
governorship. If the Legislature refuses to
put into law our reasonable demands. we will
elect another that Will be responsive to the
will of the people
We must be exceedingly careful aohom ace
elect to the Legislature. We must knoao,
FROM THEIR PAST RECORDS, that thev

We must exercise the same care in choosing
Congressman.
Where the present member has failed of his
duty to his constituents drop him, and get
new broom.
In Georgia, we will have the privilege of
saying who will succeed Senator Bacon. The
Senator has served so long, that he is doubt
less tired Not one Georgian in ten thousand
ever saw him. He never comes before the peo-
pie to make speeches. He dwells away up in
the higher isolations, and seldom, if ever, de-
sends to the prosaic earth, to mix and mingle

Greys Win Twice.

The Dallas Greys defeated the
Grand Ronde indians last Saturday
afternoon on the College campus in a
hotly-contested game by the score of
9 to 8, and on the following Sunday
they overcame the Hopewell Giants at
the North Dallas ball park by 10 to

pepper in these two games than 1t has
at any previous time this year. Bar
ham pitched the first game and struck
out men, and allowing hits. Sum

struck out 6 and allowed but hits.
The good work of the Dallas infield
was an eye opener to the fans

HANDSOME HOME DESTROYED
Mrs. Susan Mckinney Returns From
Visit While Dwelling Burns.

AS Mrs. Susan Kinney stepped off
the train Saturday evening on her re-
turn from q pleasant visit to Albany,
the fire bell was summoning the de-
partment to fight the flames that were
consuming her handsome home on the
northwest corner of Ash and Jefferson
streets. Within 20 minutes, the fire
had made a mere shell of the rear
portion of the building and had in
jured the upper parl of the two-story
front With the exception Of a piano
and the furniture from the parlor, but
little was saved. There was no insur-
ance, and the loss will fall heavily up
on the owner, who is widow.
1t is thought that the fire started
from a defective flue in the kitchen.
Mrs. S. A. Cox. sister-in-law of Mrs
Kinney, had been ironing. and while
sitting on the front porch heard the
cracking of fire, that called her atten-
ton to the kitchen. where the flames
had broken out. The alarm was given
and the firemen and apparatus were
quickly at work.
The house had just been painted, a
new bathroom equipped, and numer-
Gus interior Improvements were but
recently made.
1t was reported that subscription
papers rendering assistance to Mrs.
Kinney were circulated, but the
amounts received could not be
learned. The mems class of the
Christian Church bible school con-
tributed $40 last Sunday. Mrs. Kin
ney was taken care of by the neigh
bors, and she feels under many obli-
cations to them for their generous
kindness. The house will be rebuilt
as soon as possible.

out good one, right into Deputy
Assessor Ayres' hands. Postmaster
G. G. Coad then appeared at the plate
with bat in his hands, prepared to
knock one over into Ward Two of

contest was on.
