to you some of the practice in my
life experience. The reason for the
church's prosperity in this country
In the last 40 years, is easily to be
found, in the driving out of the
Jesuits from Europe who installed
their dark age practice in this coun-
try misusing the freedom and liber-
ty of it.
All so called Roman Catholic Sc
cret societies, while they are osten-
SADLY for benevolence and social
purpose, are in reality used by the
church for political purposes, and in
this lays the church's strength, and
this is produced by Loyola's spy and
terroriZation system. Go all through
history since Loyola's time about
1910, and you will find where ever
the Jesuits were permitted any free
dom, they tried to practice this sys-
TEN to the misfortune of nations.
That Tammany Hall, the political
organization of this city is inter
woven with the Roman Catholic
churcn is clearly proven by their
practice of this system, and it is
really through Tammany Hall and
the willing tools they can make out
of the judiciary and police, that the
Roman Catholic church is supreme
here.
To give you an idea of what is
called by Tammany Hall Democracy,
/ state the following:
This organization (Tammany) is
nothing but an organized slavery
that beggars description. They have
the multitude by the throat, and
hardly anybody dare show any indie
pendence whatsoever. Having the
pleasure of being under the ban Of
the gang, and l do mean the Tam
many Hall gang for good many
years, on account of my independ-
ence, can describe trick or two of
their doing to perfection.
Their favored trick is, to drive
their victim on the crime and vice
route, by means which are often be-
yond description. One of their IA
vored tricks is to tease and tempt
their victim while mere children,
teaching them often life of shame
and prostitution.
This is only one way the political
powers of Tammany work the multi
tude. The gang Of thugs is pro-
duction Of them, in fact, they are Of
ten nothing else themselves, but
graduate gang leaders, who had in
fluence enough to keep out of pris-
on. A young man, who likes ease
more than work, handy with his fist
as main capital, gathers gang of
other young men of the same type,
terrorizing some neighborhood by
all sorts of crime, such as petty
thievery, ETC., leyying graft as pro-
lection on storekeepers and men Of
small means, on election day, deliv-
ering the votes of the terrorized
people, this, is generally the start
Of a Tammany Hall leader.
But when they can't work their
victim with those tricks, or snug
ling jewelry into his pockets, max
ing him out pickpocket, as last
resort they try to set him crazy, or
make him commit suicide, or murder
him inch by inch by trick most
likely taught them by the Jesuits,
(who always keep under cOver) the
horrible. mind connection by the
sound, which is a numbering too foul
and vile for description, and has be-
side the purpose to terrorize the
multitude.
Any reasoning person can imagine
what will power it requires to do
anything at ali, when the mind is
constantly occupied by the sound.

operating

Speedy improvement of the City
Hall park is now certain, as the work
of laying cement walks and of other
wise beautifying and improving the
park has already been begun. The
city and county are cooperating ID
the work with the view of finishing
it as early and as thoroughly as pos
sible.
Work has already been begun on
the laying of cement walks, and the
neat, new walks will be a great inn
provement over the older ones, which
were in bad shape from long neglect.
The new walks will circle the basin
in the center of the park, leading To
the county Jail at one end and to each
of the opposite corners of the park
at it's Lee street front.
In addition to the repair of the
walks much will be done in the way
of adding touch of greenery to the
park here and there. Shrubs and
flowers will be planted, and the men,

in keeping the park in excellent

CROPS WERE
Benefited
BY RAINS
that FELL HERE YESTERDAY
Some Crops Especially Need
ed 1t

The fine rain here yesterday morn
ing not only brought relief from hot
weather, but was most beneficial to
the crops as we'll. While showers
had fallen in some portions of Sum-
ter this week, the entire county need
ed a good rain, as crops were show
ing the effect of continued drOuth. 1t
had been more than two weeks since
Americus had a good rain and gar
dens here, like crops upon the farms,
needed moisture.
Corn fields, especially, showed the
effect of dry weather, and while that
crop was not suffering greatly yet
the good rain yesterday proved ben
efcial. Cotton, sun plant, was
standing conditions all right and
growing vigorously.
That Sumter will make a good cot
ton crop this year is indicated by the
fine stands in every locality and the
uniformly healthy appearance of the
vigorous young plants.

Extensive Improvements are now

MADE GOOD PROFITS ON
SALE OF EARLY PEACHES
Mr. Joiner Has Already Sold More Than $500 of Early
Peaches in Local Market

Three hundred dollars, net, is the
handsome profit realized within the
past few days from an orchard Of
early peach trees on the Hewitt
Joiner farm near Americus, and the
crop is not exhausted yet by good
deal, as Mr.. Joiner sells a wagon load
of the peaches to consumers in Amer
icus every morning.
These peaches are of the new May
flower variety, sold here this season
Tor the first time. The fruit is small
in size, but luscious and readily sells
at 80 cents per small basket. Mr..
Joiner, it is said, has sold between
$500 and $4O0 of the peaches already.
MIR. J. L. Glawson, of the Ware
Progress orchard, was in Americus
yesterday and stated that the first
Shipment OF Carmens from his or
chard would be two weeks hence.
These are the first of the really fine
peaches ready for shipment and all of
the orchards about Americus will be
in the market with them.
The Ware-Progress orchard will
ship nothing but Carmens, unless
prices should be exceptionally good
preferring rather to can the crop, as
more money is realized in that way

IN SCHOOLS
ARE YET TO BE FILLED
All the Former Teachers Who Applied For Reelection
Were Chosen to Serve in the Local School System

them, Mrs Hoyle, Misses Galloway and
Harper, had already been elected %
desirable positions elsewhere, Mrs.
Hoyle and Miss Harper in the Way
cross city schools, and Miss Galloway
in Washington, Ga.
In Waycross, Mrs. Hoyle and Miss
Harper will again teach under the di-
rection of Supt A. G. Miller, so long
at the head of the Americus schools,
and who resigned recently to accept
the Waycross position.
Miss Sarah Cobb, who has been
made principal of the grammar school
and teacher of the first grade, is emf
nently qualified for that position, the
salary of which has been increased
next term, to 5000. In the high school
the position of principal, to which
Mr.. J. n Haddock was elected, like
wise carries an increase in salar,
next year.
The Americus schools have a rep.
utation for efficiency and thorough.
ness second to none other, and this
fiattering endorsement is due in very
large measure to the thorough worl
and application of the teachers, many
of whom have given the better par
OF their years thereto.

CHAIRMAN
ARRANGEMENTS Committee
For the National Democratic
Convention
(speeial to Times-Recorderl

Atlanta, Ga, May 19.-Editor
Charles r. Pendleton, of the Macon
Telegraph, has been elected chairman
of the Georgia delegation; NJ. C. Car
thur, of Lumber City, secretary, and
Crawford WheatIey, of Americus,
chairman of the committee on trans
portation and arrangements.
Pendleton's election was made
unanimous. Brantley, Hutcheson and
Watson were nominated in opposition
Watson withdrew in favor of Pendle-
ton in a speech, in which he referred
to Pendleton as "the nestor of Geor.
gia democracy" and appealed to his
friends to vote for him. The other
names were then withdrawn and Pen
dleton's election made unanimous.
Watson's conciliatory attitude is the
more remarkable in view of Pendle-
tons consistent and vigorous opposi-
tion to Watson.

Will BREAK
UP The LARGE
PLANTATIONS
COMMITTEE WAS APPOINTED
By the Southern Commercial
Congress

Washington, May Ex-senator Dun
can U. Fletcher, of Florida, president
of the Southern commercial congress,
has appointed committee of repre-
er the problem of breaking up large
plantations of the South into small
holdings.
This committee includes L. c. Ir-

Harvie Jordan, Atlanta, Ga; T. f..
Peck, state commissioner of agricul-
ture, Nashville, Tenn; e. J. Watson,
commissioner of agriculture of South
Carolina Columbia, s. c.; and Geo.
w. Deem, Waycross, Ga.
At the fourth great convention of
the Southern commercial congress, at
Nashville, Tenn, April $40, the fol-
lowing resolution, offered by L. c.
Irvine, of Mobile, was unanimously
adopted by the congress:
Whereas, The ration of effective
to population in the South |
is but little over one-third that of the
agricultural states of the West, and,
Whereas, The only hope of agri-
cultural uplift in the South lies in the
solution of this difficulty
by the creation of a soil-tilling, farm }
owning white population, sufficient to
render this ineffective population a
negligible quantity, and,
Whereas, The large plantation
system is an absolute bar to individ.
lal small ownership,
Therefore, be it resolved, That
this congress heartily commends to
he people and their legislatures Sc
rious consideration of this question,
md immediate and effective steps to
break up large plantation holdings,
md to this end, we suggest to the
BOARD of directors the appointment of
| permanent committee on this sub

SLATON'S CROWD PUSHED
WATSON AS A DELEGATE
Substituted Him For LOyIess Of Augusta Red Headed
Politician Raised Sand in Convention

leading, We're placed in nomination.
A resolution was at once introduc-
ed that they be elected in a bunch nv
acclamation in order to head off Wat
sons expected attack on Tom Fielder
watson fought for the carrying out of
the rules for fifteen or twenty min
utes, and the convention was in a
condition of pandemonium.
Il refuse to be howled down."
shouted Watson, as his followers ap-
plauded and his opponents yelled.
Chairman Hutchens vainly appealed
for a hearing.
"You are disgracing yourselves and
your party!" came from Watson in a
momentary lull in the storm.
Finally the chair put the motion
and declared amid the confusion that
the eight delegates-at-large had been
elected by acclamation, although as a
matter of fact the bedlam was too
great and the volume of yeas and nays
so loud that no one could possibly
tell what had been done. tt was the
only way, though, to prevent the pos
slblllty of Tom Fielder being defeated.
Watson had told the convention in
his interrupted remarks that Fielder
was his personal and political enemy;
that Watson and his friends should
not be forced to vote for a man who
had threatened to stab Watson like
an eel, and he did not want the votes
of Felders friends.
The friends of Fielder were neither
anxious to have his gate as a dele
gate put to ballot, or to give Watson |
= fifteen minutes opportunity to ex-
ress his opinion of Fielder
The adopted rules had served the
purpose of keeping Watson quiet un-
til the proper time, and then the
steam roller did the rest. Many be-
lieve but that for the steam roller
methods Fielder might have remained
at home, instead of going to Balti-
more. The chances were evidently
too great to take.
If Watson had succeeded in defeat
ing Fielder, the fear was expressed
that he might turn his attention 10
others of those selected. The conven-
Lion clearly brought out that the lead
ars were afraid of an open issue wit
that the Slaton people are
very anxious to retain his support, and
that Watson is still a factor to be
reckOned with. Many doubt, though,
that he will go to Baltimore, the
being denied him, and
the delegation committed to the ma
jority rule in all its actions. This
would reduce Watson to the level of
an equal member of the delegation.
The delegates-at-large are Watson,
Fielder, Hutcheson, Wheatley, Deem,
Pendleton, Anderson.
The developments in the convention
will cut their part in the state cam
paign, and while the Slaton interests
feel that they have played great
political coupe, it may yet prove 4
boomerang, for everybody knows the
price paid for Watsons support
Watson has his delegateship, but
the bitterness in the cup will
not overcome the sweetness and make
the dose a most unpalatable one, re-
mains to be seen, and the Loyless in
