NEED Is GREAT
FOR BATTLESHTPS
Senator Swanson Makes Eloquent
Plea for Maintenance Of
Naval Power.

Declaring that never before in the
history Of the world has there been a
greater necessity for naval power" for
the United States, Senator Swanson OF
Virginia yesterday urged the Senate to
authorize two battleships next year.
There is 10 question" he said, "of
more vital importance, OF more far
reaching consequence to this nation than
that OF the increase in our navy. A
mistake made in this matter now would
be most dificult to correct in the fl-
ture and would be fraught with great
danger, and might in the coming years
cuiminate in national disaster.
In modern commerce the nation that
Is helpless upon the seas is the prey Of
all marauders ard has its future des-
tiny directed by others. Naval su-
premaCy ultimately means national pre-
eminence and triumph More than ever
before sea power is the best and strong
est power.
Are we foolish enough to believe that
this great nation, the envy and jealousy
q other nations. can be safe II We per
init ourselves TO become a fourth or
fifth rate naval power2 Could this re-
strain them when the destruction Of our
navy would mean the overthrow Of the
Monroe doctrine and the opening up to
them Of Central and South America for
exploitation and sPOIiation? Do We not
know taas enc of these nations has CO.
vetOus eyes on the Philippines"
Senator Swanson had previously men
toned Japan's increasing naval strength
and his reference to the Philippines was
understood by Senators. Continuing, he
declared that the Panama Canal could
only remain in our possession as long
as the navy can insure il; that our for
eign commerce could only be sustained
by a sufficient navy.
The future Of this mighty republic
lies on the seas" Mr.. Swanson ASSERT
ed. Failure there means national de-
cadence and decay. We should estab-
lish rigid policy that no other nation
than Great Britain shall possess naval
strength superior to ours"
Mr.. Swanson said that in the present
day wars come quickly and a nation
must be prepared for instant action.

TAFT DISCUSSES
PLATFORM PLANKS
President FavOrs Extension of Civil
Service and Irrigation
Projects.

President Taft, after having spent the
greater part OF the morning in receiving
delegations from the Knights Of coIum-
bus. yesterday discy.sed two proposals
for the Republican /Atform, to be adopt
ed In the Chicago Convention with James
T. Williams. jr.. Hone Of the delegates-at-
large, from Arizona.
The first OF these planks includes an
Endorsement Of the Presidents recon-
mendation for the extension OF the civu
service, to include post-offices collectors
OF custom, and internal revenue, and
many other officers not included in the
classified service. The other plank
pledges the party to liberal policy to-
ward irrigation projects, new and old.
and to the suggestion Of some reasonable
method for which the payments for the
same by land owners may be extended
over longer period Of years than Is
now permitted
In connection with the latter project Il
is desired to commit the Republican party
in favor Of negotiations with Mexico to
secure a more scientific boundary Line
between the two countries near the
mouth Of the Colorado River, so as to
obviate future complications arising from
irrigation projects now under construc-
Arizona points.
The President expressed himself as be-
ing fully in accord with these views, and
advocated their inclusion in the platform
Later in the day the President conferred
with Vice President Sherman, Senator
Bradley, former Secretary Scott, Of West
Virginia, and a number Of other Repub-
lican statesmen regarding the political
situation.

about this offer to Hart, came out this

BaIthOIdt SuppIants NaEeI.
When it was discovered that the
nerve OF Secretary Nagel, himself a
Presidential aspirant, was not sum-
Client to stand the strain Of the rough
work that must be done to nominate
Taft, he was persuaded to attend to
his secretarying in Washington. Rich
ard Bartholdt, Of Missouri, who fears
nothing but the party lash, was
brought here to do his work for him.
You could go through the whole TAFT
list and find that persuasion of some
kind had been used on every member
of the committee.
The Roosevelt people are just as des-
perate. They have undertaken not only
to nominate the colonel. but 70 carry the
direct nomination programme into every
State in the union. II they weaken they
are lost. and they know II. Their talk
OF a bolt, therefore, is not 4 idle boast
Every Taft man knows that they'll bolt
at the drop OF the hat II the game goes
against them in the convention.
After some discussion as 70 a Sunday
session OF the committee, which was
favored by Penrose, the majority decided
that such work as the committee has &c
do is not meet for the Sabbath. There

welt delegates will be handed their hats
and sent back 70 their lOwly-thatched
No Roosevelt man doubts that all the
Roosevelt contests. good and bad, will be
decided against them. The fight has got
to go to the floor Of the convention II the
colonel Is to be nominated.

MAN PAST SIXTY TRIES
TO CONVINCE MAGISTRATE
HE IS NO MORE THAN 21

New Iork, June s-Josiah ]. White,
who lives alone at 1856 Columbia Heights,
Brooklyn, tried to play ducks and brakes
with Chief Magistrate Otto Kempner and
finished by putting up 500 bail to ap-
pear on a charge Of grand larceny.
The trouble was over clothing be-
longing to Miss Anna Douglass, who
was hOusekeepsr for White from May y
to June g.. When she sent for her clothing
White refused to surrender 1t and she
summoned him before Magistrate Kemp
ner for a hearing. Instead OF going to
court White wrote to the Magistrate that
he was detained by legal engagements,
but that Miss Douglass might have her
clothing. Detectives went after him.
White once slid out Of Raymond Street
Jail on a rope after ne had been COM
mitted for contempt Of court. He Is
said to have $4,000 as a legacy from
his wife. but his son has charge OF the
money.
In giving his pedigree in court he
said he is twenty-one and was born on
Bunker Hill. He mas long been we'll
known in Brooklyn, and y now vel
past sixty.

NELSON ATTACKS
COMMERCE COURT
Minnesota Regular" Would Have
New Tribunal Abolished
by Senate.

Unexpected opposition to the Com-
merce Court developed in the Senate yes
terday. Senator Knute Nelson Of Min
nesota, a regular Republican. stated
that he had opposed the creation Of the
court in the first instance, and that the
decision OF the Supreme Court Friday
confirmed him in the belief that there
was no warrant for a Commerce Court.
He said that the court should be called
an Injunction Court"
Senator Nelson's comment was made
during the debate on Senator POindex-
ter's motion - discharge the Interstate
Commerce Committee from further con-
sideration of the bill to abolish the
Commerce Court. The morning hour ex-
pired before a vote was taken on Mr.
Poindexter's motion and the fate Of the
Commerce Court will probably be decid-
ed this week, when the legislative,
executive, and judicial appropriation bill
is finally passed upon by the Senate.
This bill contains a provision for the
abolition Of the Commerce Court and
also cuts on appropriation for its con-
tinuance.

THE JEFFERGONEAN

the whole country thirty years ago, is verify
ing itself.
We Democrats from Florida want some
protection upon our fruits; We Democrats
from South Carolina want protection ON our
rice; We Democrats from North Carolina are
under deep obligations to the Lumber Trust,
and we may not see our way clearly to vote
lumber to the free list; We Democrats of
Louisiana may have to balk at putting sugar
on the free list.
We see by the papers that various Northern
Democrats are already declaring that they
cannot afford to vote for lower duties upon
products peculiar to their own States.
So you see, there are breakers ahead.
We Democrats are certainly up in the air
just a little bit.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1912-12-12
THOMSON, Ga, DECEMBER -, 1912.
We Democrats Are Up i'm the
Air, just a Little Bit.
CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE. J

patriotic speeches of the last campaign are
still making the welkin ring.
Our president is to be inaugurated next
March; he has promised to call us into extra
session not later than the middle of the next
month: he is a man of his wOrd-in fact. all
we Democrats are men of our words. We
have not always been, but we are now.
What we have promised to do for the peo-
pie is there in our platform, on which the ink
is hardly dry, as you might say.
Blt-we are perturbed; it looks as though
our Peerless Bryan and our Peerless Wilson
might have just such Kilkenny cat fight as
that which took place between those devoted
friends and noble patriots, Roosevelt and
Taft.
We hear rumors of wrangles over the spoils
of victory; we have a hundred and seventy
thousand Offices to fill, and we have seven
hundred and seventy thousand men who want
to fill them.
That's going to be ticlzlish job.
For the first time in history, the Northern
Democrats outnumber us Southern Demo-
Gratis in Congress.
This may cause lot of strife, between
a Northern Democrat and a Northern Repub-
lican there isn't much more difference than
there is between buzzard and turkey-buz-
gard
Then again-the old leaders there in Con-
gress want to treat us newcomers as though it
was our fault that we hadn't been there as
long as they've been there.
On this subject we don't intend to yield an
inch.
We younger members may even advance the
proposition to those elder members, that the
mere fact Of their being there so long, ought
to be enough to satisfy them, and that the
bulk of the patronage should come to us.
There's another thing Gen. Hancocks
famous saying that the tariff is local ques-
tion-which caused him to be laughed at by
