Ou uOu KNOW WudJ you WduC.

you need, is "a rest
CO Three typed pages of attack,
more or less open, on Mr.. Watson.
The committee was not appointed to
learn Mr.. Vests opinion of Mr.. Wat
son; and the committee is presumably
as Indifferent to Mr.. Vests opinion
on that subject, as Mr.. Watson him
self is.
CD Mr.. Watson did not call the
meeting. He had suggested it; but
left it to the people. Rev. James J.
Pennington and Mr.. Robert E. Neal
deserve fully as much credit for that
splendid meeting, as Mr.. Watson does.
Mr.. Bob Neal who gave the word
LETS have one!" and Mr.. Watson
freely co-operated with the several
gentlemen who agreed to circulate
the unsigned hand-bills.
But even if Mr. Watson had called
the meeting, it was The People who
presented their request to Mr. West
And when he gives them the answer
that he does, it is for The People to
say whether they regard his reply as
respectful, sincere and satisfactory
AS everybody knows, the demand
for a primary has been well-nigh uni
versal for months. The Atlanta Con-
stitutiOn, the Macon Telegraph, the
Savannah Press, the Athens Banner,
the Rome Tribune-Herald, the Au-
gusta Chronicle, and many other pa
pers have been vOicing this almost
universal demand. 1t is One Man
and his Committee that arrogate to
themselves the right to flout The Peo-
pie and to defy The Peoples de-
mands.
Mr.. Watson has no axe to grind.
He is not, and will not be, a candi-
date for any office. But he thinks
that this country should be ruled by
the people, and not by secret commit
tees and Darkroom methods. In
stead Of closed-door policies and poll
ticians, Mr.. Watson advocates the
Open-dOOr and the open meeting,
where every white man is on a foot
ing of equality with every other white
man. That Mr.. West should take the
opposite course is neither surprising
nor important.
In demanding the right to be con-
suited, in the naming of the late
Senator Clay's successor, the people
are asking no more than they were
given when they chose Senator Clay.
In demanding the right to vote
directly for U. S. Senator, the people
of Georgia are advancing no farther
than the people of SO other States
have already advanced. Why should
Georgia be denied what is enjoyed by
her sister States?
1t appears that we have some
Democratic leaders in this State who
are reactionaries and stand-patters
They belong to the class of Aldrich,
Lodge, Hepburn, Gallinger, Joe Can
non, Elihu Root, John Dalzell and
William Lorimer. By good rights,
these Democrats should belong to the
same party that boasts of the Can
mons, the Aldriches, and the Lo-
rimers.

used by Hon. Ollie James, of Ken
lucky, when he offered, in the House
of Representatives, short time ago

to be elected for four years. The
variance in the length of the term,
cuts no ice in the argument for the
principle of the thing.
CD Mr.. West fears that the people
would not turn out and vote. If he
has his way, they won't. But if he
will give the people a chance to vote,
and they don't do it, this fact will
rebound SO greatly to Mr.. Vests rep
utatiOn as a prophet that he should
be willing to vote for the primary,
just for the glory and satisfaction of
being able to say
81 told you so!'
Mr.. West has no right to say that
the people of Georgia are Indifferent
as to who shall represent them in the
U. S. Senate.
Besides, it is not the fault of any
body, save the Committee, that the
Primary was not held before the
farmers got busy. The Committee
should not take advantage of a situa-
ton which it's own misconduct Gre
ated.
What Mr.. West and his man are
afraid of is, that the farmers WILL
vote.
CD MAY and June the farmers
on, what sOlicitude these committee
men have for the farmers! But this
year we have a U. S. Senatorship to
fill; and we don't have one to fill,
every May or June. Consequently, a
primary, in June, this year, will not
become chronic. The law does not
prohibit WHITE primary, called by
the Executive Committee, to fill a
vacancy caused by the death of Sen
ator. Mr.. West has got his questions
and his law mixed. His law refers to
the primary in which negroes can
vote. Mr.. Watson and the McDuffie
Committee refer to a party primary,
in which none but white Democrats
can vote.
Mr.. West knows perfectly we'll that
the demand for late primary applied
to the periodic election of State-house
Officers-not to such an unexpected
and emergency election as that which
the deplored death of Senator Clay
made necessary.
Cd The Expense" Oh, how
careful Some People can sometimes
be, about spending the poor mans
money!
The kind of primary that Mr..
Watson has in view would not cost
the State, or the candidates, one cent.
In every voting district, it is abso-
lutely certain that the candidates can
find supporters who will hold the
election, free of charge.
60 ''The people want a rest
How does Mr.. West know that? They
are holding mass-meetings every
where, and thousands of names are
being signed to petitions, in favor of
the primary. 1t is because Mr.. Vests
man fears to meet the people, that
Mr.. West is so much in favor of ga
rest"
Mr.. Vests people turn out, in
mass-meeting, and request him to ad-
vocate primary; and he cody turns
upon them and virtually says
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1911-05-18

Executive Committee. They We're in
structed to requesthim to urge Chair
man w. Wright, of Newman, Ca, to
convene his committee, to fix day for
a primary for Senator. For fear that
we might have misunderstood his YER
bal reply to the gentlemen who
waited on him, last Saturday, we will
omit that part of it, and confine our
comment to his written response. The
length and evasiveness of this docu-
ment are remarkable. Besides a great
deal of it is totally irrelevant.
Consider moment:
The citizens of McDufie county
come together at the courthouse, to
discuss public matters. All classes
are represented. Everybody is free
to speak. Harmony prevails. Men
who have opposed one another siren
uously in the past, find themselves in
complete accord. The best of feeling
prevails. No personalities are in
dulged in. No old quarrels or diff
ferences are raked up. Every one
seems to be actuated by desire to
bring about a better state of things.
Not one word was spoken that could
give offence. When the Chairman,
inadvertently, used a term that Mr..
Watson feared might be Objectionable
to Mr.. West and his friends, he at
once called the Chairs attention to
it-he and Chairman Pennington
both disclaiming any intention of Civ
ing offense to Mr. West.
How very different is the tone of
Mr.. Vests reply to the Committee!
The greater part is a more or less
o44~ o1-
disparages the meeting itself, because,
as he says, Watson called it. He
rakes up the past, alluding to the
bitter fights of last year, thereby
seeking, apparently, to stir up and
keep alive the animosities of former
campaigns.
What excuse is there for his doing
so? Is it wise, patriotic and COM
mendable to stir up strife, and re-
open old wounds, when the great ma
jority of our people so earnestly de-
sire to promote better feelings, here
in our home, and throughout the
State.
For Mr.. Watson to answer Mr..
Vests attack-as he easily could
would be to do the very thing which,
we regret to say, Mr.. West seems to
desire. 1t would revive the disputes
and the evil passions of former cam
paigns.
This local paper was not founded
with the intention of adding to the
unhappiness of McDuffie County. It's
mission is one of peace and useful
ness. We want to be a blessing to
our people-not curse. And we are
not to be turned from our course bv
any unjust and unca1led-for reference
to Mr.. Watson's past. That can take
care of itself. We are looking ahead.
Now as to Mr.. Vests arguments
against the primary:
CD He declares that it has not
been customary to hold primaries to
fill Senatorial vacancies.
II we mustn't do anything because
it has not been the custom, "Pro-
gressive Democracy" might just as
we'll shut up shop.
Is Mr.. West a stand-patter?
The stand-pats are the chaps who
oppose changes. But we had been
under the impression that Mr.. West
was a Progressive" To progress,
you have to move on. You have to
leave one place, and go forward to
another. To be Progressive Demo-
GRAFT" you have to advance. You
can't advance, without leaving the
place, or the thing, that you advanced
from.
