The followers Of Roosevelt never
tire in singing his purity and his
freedom from trust infiu noes.
Yet his manager is George w.
Perkins. the trust magnate. who
narrowly escaped the penitentiary
| for his theft of life insurance funds
to swell Rosetvelt's campaign fund
in 1904. That Perkins is a Tester
ing sore of corruption is forcibly
shown in the following extract from
a speech by Congressman Stanley
chairman of the steel trust in
vestigation committee:

progressive capitalism will sing
hymns between the TRADES of
Roosevelt and the platitudes of
Perkins and that Perkins is TO be
choir leader. | would suggest that
they paraphrase the war cry Of the
Turkish J%anazaries and adopt with
slight modification as the battle
hymn Of the Faithful from Wall
Street" the chant of the Turkish
genies:
" Allah, Allah. Man mon is
Allah. There is 10 God but
Mammon and Morgan is his
prophet
For several years the chief inter-
mediary between big business and
those who were invested by the ex-
ecutive department with the duty
of investigating il has been a
gentleman by the name Of George
w. Perkins.
For years this fanatically
ardent partisan has broken through
all restraints which deter better
men and other obligation to
society and to himself in the secret
service of his party.
"ln 1904 Mr.. Perkins in his
eagernss to aid his party and his
hero. Nh. Roosevelt, actually
donated $4,000 of other peoples
money Ia the good cause. He gave
his personal check 10 Mr.. Bliss and
was reimbursed by check Of the
New YO.k Life Insurance company
No. 1923 payable to J.. =.
Nor al and company. The pro,
ceeds Of this check were traced Il
Mr.. Perkins and for this eminent
service he wss arrested under q
warrant charging him with grand
larceny.
Perkins knew the consent OF The
policy holders was necessary TO save
this appropriation of their funds
from the guilt Of common larceny
and that consent was not and could
not have been obtained.
WHO were these pilfered policy
holders? The most pathetic and
helpless figures in this vale of
tears. The young mother wrapped
in the black habilimen,s Of wee.

The man escaped a prison cell

The day of subdivision has come.
The vast acres which have so long
remained in big ranches, but the
latter few years are being in
tensively farmed, have shown such
surprising fertility and production
the farmers are becoming rich from
their own labor.
Nothing TO compare with condi-
tons in many sections of the west
has eve been met with before even
in the wonderful record of develop
ment throughout the United States.
The only drawback to more than

THE PARTY MUST MAKE GOOD.

The verdict of Tuesdays election
must not be mistaken or ignored. 1t
is an expression of confidence and at
the same time it is merely an ind1-
cation that the American people have
placed the Democratic party on pro-
baton. The confidence will be with
drawn, the period of probation speed
lily brought to a close, if the party fails
to make good.
Voters generally are in no mood TO
be tritied with. They have placed
ample power in the hands of the
Democratic party With that power
has gone responsibilities that cannot
be slurred or avoided. The power
must be so used that the responsible
tiles will be fully met If the re-
verse is the case, if the power is mere
ly used for purposes of office filling,
for personal political promotion, the
revulsion of feeling throughout the par
ty throughout the nation, will be so
great that nothing can stay an over
whelming defeat two and four years
hence.
Party ties are sitting lightly on
mems shoulders, especially North and
West. Down here they would sit much
lighter but for the negro question. In
thirty-odd states the party names are
ceasing to be shibboleths that rally
the hosts regardless of principles or
performances Men are more and
more looking to deeds, studying acts,
analyzing records. Unfulfilled pledges
will mean strict accountability here
after at the polls
The Wilson administration must
make good. 1t must give the country
genuine relief. absolute reforms, or
four years from now a yirile giant
known as the Progressive party will
deal it a solar plexus blow. Let us
hope and pray that its performance
will parallel its promises and that four
years of redeemed Democratic pledges
lies before us.

JUDGE CRISP'S OPPORTUNITY.

Judge Charles R. Crisp, Democratic
congressman-elect from the Third dis
trict, is fortunate in the environment
in which he will be placed at Wash
ington when he takes his seat in the
House of Representatives
A. Democratic president will be in
the White House, a Democratic ma
jority in all likelihood, in the Senate,
and the House will be entirely in the
control of the Democrats. There will
be no barriers to constructive legis-
lation, no obstacle in the way of re-
form measures for the relief of condi-
tions that have become almost intol-
cradle.
1t is a great opportunity for a re-
preventative of the people to be Of
service to them. Legislation of vital
Importance to the nations future well
fare is to be nodded into definite shape.
Laws that are to be of supreme inn
portance in their effect on business
development are to be enacted The
hands of Democratic president are
to be upheld by the legislative branch.
1t will be a period calling for har-
mony in Congress, unity of purpose
and concentration of action.
Congressman Crisp, We all have rea-
son to believe, will measure up to the
responsibilities of the position in which
he is placed. Well-drilled in the prin-
ciples of our government, thoroughly
attached to the tenets of the Demo-
cratic faith, entirely acquainted with
parliamentary procedure, honorably
ambitious to serve his people faith
fully and intelligently, he will I'M
questionably be found supporting all
true Democratic measures, giving the
full measure of his vote and influence
to sustaining the administration in all
its efforts to redeem its pledges to
the nation. Not unmindful of the par
tASHioA lhNNAO oNo vi MS constituents III
the district, we can look forward san
guinely to Congressman Crisp taking
a broad, national view of his duties,
remembering that a Congressman is a
constituent part of a great national
party, working for a nations welfare,
and that the interests of the individ-
ual are best served under existing
conditions, by the consideration of the
interests of the mass. Animated as
he is by such spirit, the Third Geor-
gia District can look forward to being
satisfactorily represented in the great
sessions of Congress that will make
1913 an epochal year in American his
tory.

OFFICIAL ORGAN:
PROGRESSIVE PARTY TO LIVE.

All doubts as to the immediate flu
ture of the Progressive party was
removed with the announcement from
the defeated presidential candidate,
the leaders of the new national or
ganization would be held at Chicago
on December 10 to make plans for the
extension of its organization in every
state of the country, with a view to
active participation in local and state
contests during the four years that
must intervene before it enters another
presidential fight.
Roosevelt's declaration shows I'M
Tistakably that he adheres to his
Oft-repeated declaration that the Re-
publican party is a dying party, and
that its final collapse is not far of.
The Progressive party he regards as
the coming great party that is to meet
thn Democracy in the struggle for con-
troll of the government To that end
il will place candidates in the field
FIR congress, state and municipal Of
fees.
The magnificent showing made by
the new party in the election on Tues
dav naturally encouraged it's leaders
There is no disputing the fact that it
hes taken a strong root hold and must
be reckoned with as one of the most
powerful political factors of the fu-
ture. Lead by indomitable men. well
financed, with rolicies that appeal to
q host of workingmen and others, it
is but natural to expect it to draw
heavily hereafter from the remnants
&c the old Republican party. The only
thing that can really stay it's growth
AVID impose a decided check on its
development will be the carrying out
nv the incoming Democratic admins
tration of reforms that it has promis-
ed. That the Wilson administration
VIII be true to its pledges to the peo-
pie there is no reason to doubt And
j. the performance of its plain duty to
the people it will so strengthen itself
that the new party will once more
meet a signal defeat when it enters
the national arena again.
