TOMAHAWK OUT FOR

Atlanta, Feb. 2.-Taking as his text
Col. Henry Watterson s statement that
Thomas F. yam Rwas a Democrat an0
a Vtrginian, with no AK to grind, >
Thomas E. Watson in a statement Civ
en to the public today, denounces Ry
an as high finance plunderer and de-
clares that Ryan always played poll
ties for his own vicious ends.
MIR. Watson says in part:
is this the same Ryan that made
'at k 81 drpe drop the New York stree t
railway franchise which Jack had
bough; tiom boodling aldermen
is this Mr., Ryan the same man
WHO sold a mythical railroad TO his
own Metropolitan in New Var; an6
who kept his share of the plumber
some 0.000-until he was sued for
hte money, and who eased out of the
scrape by returning the loot?
Can this be the same Ryan who
scoored the Seaboard railway roo
Ding his friend John Shelton Will

Can this be the man who scooped
the Equitable and put a republicans
lawbreaker Paul Morton, in charge?
Can this be the man who organ
lied the tobacco trust; sent leaf to-
bacco down to five cents pound and
drove the desperate producers to
night riding and bloodshed?
Can this friend of Watterson be
the same man that carried the Viz

the democratic national convention
the year Parker received the Ryan

HUSBANDS ALSO
MUST BEAR BLAME
f.
How Women Explain The High
Cost Of Living

Cincinnati, Ohio, Feb. 2.-Replying
to the request from the State of Ohio
To explain the high cost of living, the
Cincinnati Housewives Cooperative
League, through it's president, Mrs. j
W. Films, has made it's report public.
and gave the following as the chi5f
causes of the present exorbitant
prices:
Trusts. Selfish, greedy, and hun
g.y for big profits.
Speculation. Prices fixed by gam
blcrs ether than by the cost of D O
Ilction.
Husbands. Not as helpful in hons
management as they should be.
Lame laws. Refusal to grant wo-
men the right to vote.
In tracing the high cost of living tC
husbands, Mrs. Films attributed it &c
their tendency to evade domestic
tasks, and said
Half of them don't know the price
| of sugar or how long an incandesceni
light will last, and, all unknowingly
they greatly add to the already in
creased cost of living. Husbands
should keep household accounts as
well as wives, and at the end of tbs
month both sides should balance III
and see if they agree. l don't see why
husband should not know when
the flour is getting low as we'll as the
wife
The league has already started a
boycott on butter, the members de-
claring they will eat BUTTERFLIES brea |

MIR. VAN RIPPER BACK
IN AMERICUS FROM THE WEST
viii Resume Business Here To STAY
Permanently.

Many friends extended cordial greet
ing yesterday to Mr., Henry Van Ripper
upon his return to Americas, his
home for quarter century from the
bleak plains of Oklahoma. After a
residence of six years in Durant. he
is glad enough to get home again and
is here "for keeps"
He will again engage in business
here, occupying quarters on Forsyth
street at the former Kelly studio.
The West, he says, is a good coun-
try, agriculturally, but conditions in
Georgia are far preferable The city
OF Durant is smaller than Americas
The population, he says, is decidedly
mixed and Mr.. Indian is still much in
evidence there. The farmers are far
behind ours in progressiveness, ami
the tenant system is deplorable. Six
Years of life there was more than he
wanted, and Americas will be good
enough for all time now.
