ure OF self-g goyernment to Rumelia
and Macedonia
1t is iargued here that in Introducing
in those provinces reforms elaborated
by representatives of Great Britain,
France Germany, Austria, Italy and
Russia Turkey not merely desires to
give the powers an argument for
bringing pressure to bear in tie Bal
kan capitals, but probably has in
view the circumstance that the de-
cision is calculated to SOW discord
among #he members of the Balkan al.
lance.
The Greeks in particular are likely
to be dissatisfied, for it is regarded in
diplomatic circles as without doubt
that they were counting on a general
confagration in order to settle various
issues of long standing. These in
clude, for instance, the presence of
Cretan deputies in Athens. However,
although the position has improved,
war cannot yet be said to have been
averted. Possible events in Turkey
itself must not be lost sight o., es-
pecially after the war-like fever late
ly encouraged among the people.
In many quarters here the fear is
expressed that the excitement acre-
ated by the war preparations of both
sides has advanced too far for q con-
fiict to be avoided on the basis of any
reform short of complete Macedonian
autonomy.

MONEY BADLY NEEDED BY
THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE
FROM DEMOCRATIC
HEADQUARTERS

The News is in receipt of a com
munication from Robert Ewing, chair
man of the Press Contribution Bureau
of the democratic national commit
tee, requesting that a direct appeal
be made for contributions to the cam
paign fund.
Mr.. Ewing syas that he desires to
call attention especially to the recent
statement Of Henry Morgenthau, the
chairman of the finance committee,
that so far the comparatively small
amount Of $29S,750 has been contrib
uted to the democratic campaign
fund, and that an additional s75O,OOO
Will be- required to pay the legitimate
expenses Of the campaign"
This statement would indicate that
the democratic party is troubled with
over-confdence. A feeling that we
are going to win anyway and that
there is no need Of a campaign fund
If this over confidence lasts until the
election the result will be lhat thou
sands and thousands Of democrats
will stay away from the polls.
The loyal democrats OF Brunswick
should send substantial fund to the
national committee and although The
News has already contributed liber-
ally to the fund and is daily devoting
much space to the cause OF democ-
racy in response to this appeal II will
start Brunswick contribution with
$1,000.

t"MUTT AND JEFF" LAST MIGHT
Large Audience NErc3ent to Witness
the Musical Comedy.

Mutt and jeff" a somewhat lively
musical comedy, was the attraction
at the Grand last night, and the pro-
duction was witnessed by a large
house, decidedly top-heavy.
The audience, it seems, saw ex-
actly what they expected; Bud Fish
er's Mutt and Jeff, a number of chorus
girls with very good voices and pretty
costumes, one or two good comedians,
some catchy music, etc. The company
did not advertise any grand opera
singers, but promised an evening OF
amusement, and, judging from the
amount of laughter and applause, they
fulfilled the promise.
The scenery was all very pretty
the costumes gorgeous, the music was
quite catchy, and altogether those
who attended the performance seemed
to be well pleased.

PRESIDENT OF, THE BRUNSWICK
TERMINAL G. RAILWAY
4 SECURITIES CO.
IMPRESSED WITH ACTIVITY
Says the City Has Developed Greatly
During. the Past TWO Years and
Highly Commends &he SECT Togeth'
err Spirit Now Being Shown.

T. D. Rhodes, president of the
Brunswick Terminal & Railway Sc
furities company, accompanied by
Mrs. Rhodes, is in the city on bust
ness relative to the company, and
was seen at the Oglethorpe by d rep
resentative of The News last Light.
Mr.. Rhodes has been much Impress
ed with the growth and expansion of
Brunswick during the past two years
as we'll as by the present signs OF
prosperity seen on every hand.
Brunswick" said Mr.. Rhodes, has
the location and the natural advan-
tages that go to make a great city
and l not only have an affection for
Brunswick, but have unbounded faith
in it's future. Your business men,
among whom l have many warm
friends, are progressive and liberal to
a degree, ready to welcome the new
conner as we'll as offering substantial
inducements to factories and business
organizations. This taken with the
tget-together' spirit now apparent on
every hand is bound to bring great
results"
L understand" continued Mr..
Rhodes, that you have a very ac-
tive board of trade which in itself
means much to any city, and, in the
case of Brunswick l feel sure that
your trade body with the plans they
have underway, will add greatly to
the business growth of the city"
Requested for an opinion on the
political situation in the North, Mr..
Rhodes stated that although a per-
sopal friend OF the president and a
supporter of Mr. Taft he was COM
PEELED to say that the balance of SEN
timent was in favor of Wilson.
The country" said Mr.. Rhodes,
''was never in more prosperous con-
dition than at present, still the peo-
pie seem to want a change, but no
matter who is elected this country
has grown too big and it's interests
and resources are too great to be af-
fected to any great extent no matter
which party is in power"
While" continued Mr.. Rhodes, "the
big men or the money interests as
they are termed, may hold off on in
vestments and tighten up the money
market, still, as l said this country is
too big for hard times or business de-
preston of any length. The tariff is
the great issue in this country and |
don't think Mr.. Wilson will attempt
any radical measures that might
bring grave results. When the amend
ment to the constitution is passed,
giving our presidents one term of
six years, then we will have govern
ment of the people and for the peo-
pie, as the head of the nation won't
be playing politics for a second term
to vindicate his first term"

WOODROW WILSON TELLS WHY
HE DOES NOT "PUNcH" THE
OTHER FELLOW In WEST.
STEEL BEHIND ROOSEVELT
That Trust Created an Atmosphere
the Law of the U. S. Attempted to
Destroy and Now Wants Govern
ment to Perpetuate its Creation.

Pueblo, Colo, Oct. THAT the Uni
ted States Steel Corporation lis be-
hind the party program in regard to
the regulation of the trusts" vas the
charge made by Governor Wilson in
speech here today. Corroborative
evidence of that assertion, the COVER
nor said, was coming to him every
day.
1T is very interesting circum-
stance said Governor Wilson that
the United States Steel Corporation
is behind the third party program as
regards the regulation of the trusts.
Il am perfectly ready to admit that
the officers of the steel corporation
think that is the best thing for the
United States. My point is that these
gentlemen have grown up in the at
mosphere of thugs mat they them
selves have created and which the law.
of the United States has so far at
tempted to destroy. And now they
want a government which viii per
petuate what they have created"
Not Persons. But Issues.
The governor said he had been ask
ed, as he got further West, to put a
punch" in his speeches and hit the
other fellow" He declared tina. ne
was not interested in persons, but is
sues.
What difference does Mr.. Taft's
record make to me?" said the aov
ernor; what difference does Mr.
Roosevelt's career make to me? What
difference do my own attainments
make in the face of the tremendous
issues? l tell you can't afford to
think of Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt
in thinking of the fortunes of the peo-
pie of the United States"
Governor Wilson decoted a consid-
cradle portion of his speech to labor
questions. Before beginning to speak
he gave out for publication the fol-
lowing letter which he said had been
forwarded to him from democratic
national headquarters as having been
circulated by Charles D. Hilles, repub-
lican national chairman, among en-
ployes of labor:
IF the November election results
in choice of democratic congress
and democratic president, new tariff
bills will be enacted at once. In other
words, destructive democratic tariff
measures such as President Taft We
toed at the last session will become
laws
only one thing can prevent this,
and that is a protest vote. on the part
of the American workingmen. They
must choose between high standard
of living and that of the under-paid
European working men. Do your en-
ployes understand that this defines the
exact difference between the republi-
can and democratic parties. not only
as far as your produce is concerned,
Of American labor.
::If you will kindly send us list of
your employees who are voters, with
postoffice addresses, each one will be
asked personally to vote for Taft and
Sherman and the republican candidate
for congress, and told the reason why.
(Signed) "CHAS. D. HILLES,
"Charman."
Governor Wilson said that beyond
desiring to make the letter public, he
wished to make no comment on it.
