Who Put sc" in H.


Journal Progressive: Someone
has advanced the opinion that the
letter sc" is the most unfortunate
letter in the English alphabet, for
it is always out of fashion, forever
in debt, never out of danger and in
hell all of the time. For some reas-
on he overlooked the fortunate of
the letters and we call his attention
to the fact that sc" was never in
war and always in peace, it is the
beginning of existence and the end
of trouble. Without it there would
be no meat, no life, no heaven, it
is the center of honesty, makes love
perfect, and without it there would
be no editors, devils or news.

THE JEFFERSONIAN

The Big Railroads, and their incorruptible
Senators, and their virtuous newspapers we're
left with their mouths open-gasplng with
wrath and Indignation.
Their game was completely broken up, and
the Canal was made.
But a corporation never dies, never sleeps,
cit has no body to kick and no soul to save"
as surly old Chancellor Thurlow used to say:
the corporations bided their time, and hit
upon another plan.
"Let the u. s. Government build the Canal,
AND THEN LET US STEAL IT, by means
of laws made in Congress-"
Nearly all of the fabulous wealth of our
corporations is mere plumber, stolen from the
people by means of claws" passed In Con-
gress and in State legislatures.
Already these buccaneers have claws"
Whihc shut out the competition of foreign
capital. Already they have claws" which
make it impossible for American labor to
protect itself against the invading hordes Of
Goths and Vandals brought over here by the
united efforts of Romanist priests, steamship
companies, and "protected" manufacturers.
Already these railroads have a monopoly
Of our "Coast-wise shipping, !" the regulations
being such that no foreigner can enter the
game.
And m0o0 to complete 'the SYSTEM" they
demand the Panama Canal!
They demand that their ships and boats
shall not pay the tolls, which are levied upon
all other vessels whatsoever.
The tolls were fixed at $3.50 per ton. Ii
all ships pay that, the Canal may prove
fine investment. In the Suez Canal owned
principally by Great Britain, all ships pay
alike. There are no exemptions: ALL PAR
THE SINE TOLLS,
If we exempt the American ships from
paying tolls, might as we'll say to Mr..
Hearst and his Big Railroad friends
"Here, take the ditch, and keep it repaired
and defended yourselves. If yow are to have
the free use Of it, you are the ones to pay the
costs of it,"
Doesn't every sensible man know that if we
exempt ary ships, those ships will be gobbled
up by the monopolists, increased to any
requisite number. and employed to cut off the
competition of the ships that have no exemp-
ton?
Did not Rockefeller build up the Standard
Oil monopoly on that very principle?
Is there any monopoly that is not built on
that principle?
Your common sense tells you that where
one class Of ships has to pay tolls, and another
does not, the ship that escapes the tolls will
take the business from all others.
Besides, if we break our Treaty of 1901
with Great Britain, how can we ever expect
any other nation to place confidence in us?
Talk about national honor and the
"glory of the fag!' IF we ourselves show
tina we have no national honor, we cannot
expect the world to respect our flag.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-03-05

In regard to Senator Hoke Smith of Geor-
gia, the following remark was made by the
Stand-pat Republican, Henry Cabot Lodge
Mr.. Lodge (when his name was called)
have a general pair with the Senator from Geor-
gia Mr.. Smith). AS he would vote the same
way I shall vote, am at liberty to vote. vote
yea"
A vote "yea," meant a vote for the Express
Company robbers, and. against the Parcels
Post
Two votes occurred on this vastly import
ant subject and each time the Stand-pat
Republican, Senator Lodge, announced to the
Senate that he and Hole Smith were in
accord on,the subject-of Sta66jog the Parcels
Post.
Senator Hoke Smith is now before the peo-
pie Of Georgia, asking that they elect him to
the U. S. Senate, into which august body he
stole his way, behind his Executive Commit
tee and through his well-bought legislature
Let him explain WHY he and the Stand
pat Republican Senator from Massachusetts,
ARE so HEARTILY AGREED IN

Record of Feb. 81, 1914 page 4314)

E'RAL LANDS ~ AMERICA, FOR SALE
BY THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD
CONPANY. Office, Omaha, Nebraska"
On page of this old pamphlet the Rail
road states that the u. S. Government "con-
ferred upon the Union Pacific Railroad Com
pany magnificent Land Grant, amounting
to Tqoezve million acres, of 10000 square
miles, domain equal to the combined States
Of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Yer
mont
Land equal to three Stats given to one rail
road, to say nothing of the money and the
bonds and the exemptions and the powers
given to it.
Every one Of our railroads was built the
same way: not one of them cost the private
capitalists anything IN the long run. Either
before a rail was laid, or after the road was
completed, the public paid for these public
roads, which are yet controlled by the private
fnanciers
In the payment Of dividends upon fraudu-
lent stocks and bonds the people continue to
pay for these public highways, and continue
to allow the private fnanciers to own them,
depredate them, rob the people through them,
and use them as weapons in the never-ending
rivalries of individuals, municipalities, indus
tries, Big Business, Big Politics and Sectional
greed.
So it has come to pass that having paid
for the national iron highways ten times over,
we do not yet own them. We do not even
control them. We pay Commissioners to con-
troll them and then the Railroads control the
Commissioners We hire lawyers to back up
the Commissioners, and then the Railroads
hire other lawyers to hire our lawyer-and
thus we amuse ourselves pouring money into
prairie-dog holes.
The question moao is, shall we also give the
Panama Canal to these railroad patriots?
The ditch has cost us a lot of money. We
dug it out Of the farms. mines, lumber camps,
cattle ranches &c. The railroads did not pay
a cent of it.
But the railroads see the need of this Canal
IN their vlrtuous heaplng up of riches-riches
which they harvest in fields where other men
labored and sowed
THE RAILROADS WANT THE
CANAL: SHALL THEY Be ALLOWED
TO STEAL IT9
Statesmen of certain type say, eyes"
The Hearst newspapers enthusiastically say,
"Yesr'
Of Mr.. Hearst's newspapers would pub
lish a statement of his holdings in these big
railroads, Mexican mines, &C., it would be
joyful reading matter
as long as they could, the great trans
continental railroads opposed the Canal.
Why? Because the Canal offered the people
some relief from railroad monopoly.
The Pacific Railroads in which the Hearst
millions are SO heavily interested, were par
ticularly opposed to the Panama Canal.
Everybody then knew the reason. Why
has anybody forgotten it?
Roosevelt lost his patience because of the
persistent distractions placed in the way of
the Canal by the big Railroads, and he there
fore did high-handed, lawless thing

HOGS, HOM|NY
AND HENS WILL
HELP SOME
BIG CROP CAN BE RAISED WITH
llTTLE TROUBLE AND THEY
WILL BRING MONEY TWELVE
MONTHS IN THE YEAR.

81 am looking forward to a large crop
of hogs, hominy, and hens in Carter
county another year." remarked a
progressive farmer of this section on
the streets this morning, "and when
that is strictly adhered to people will
not hear near as much about hard
times as they have in the past
1T is no experiment, the raising of
| hens, chickens and eggs for the mar
kets" said this man. There is never a
week in the year when there is no
market for all three, there are times
when eggs are worth but little on the
market, but there is never a time when
they are not welcome to the farmers
table and he and his family can reduce
the high cost of living materially by
having a side line of these marketable
products growing up all summer
long"
The question of raising more hogs
in this section has been prosecuted
more vigorously for the past few years
than formerly and it is not near as
common to see a farmer coming to
the city after his meat as formerly, the
best class of owners are urging their
tenants to raise their own meat, keep
few COWS and have a good garden,
all this is going to require but little
work and care on the part of the ten
ant but the profits will be large in
proportion to the work required to pro-
duce them and they are a source of
ready cash whenever they are offered
for sale.
The farmer quoted above has only
been in this country a few years but
he has done remarkably well on his
small farm and is Independent today
He always has a good herd of hogs
well cared for and free from all dis
ease. He takes pains to see that only
the best of stock is in his herd and his
milch cows and hens are bringing him
in money every month in the year He
raises some cotton but is going to dis
continue that as soon as possible and
devote his time to other and better
paying crops.
The agitation started a few days ago
to secure fine stock hogs for the ten
ant farmer on terms that he can meet
is not being prosecuted very vigorous
ly, but if some one would take the
initiative there is little doubt but
what the scheme proposed could be
successfully worked. 1t served one
purpose however, and that is the land

Persons interested in the Healdton
field are now in Fort Worth for the
purpose Of making arrangements to
build pipe line from here to that
city. The plan is to get the pro-
ducers in the field to take stock in
the company and pay for the stock in
Oil The oil will be used as a basis
to float a bond issue to build the
line. 1t has also been proposed to
build the line to Gainesville, Texas
This means that plans are being
made to use Oklahoma products to
build up enterprises in Texas, which
does not seem quite fair. Texas is
the gulf port state, it is the gateway
to the sea. Oil shipments originating
in Texas can be shipped to the gulf
for so much tess than oil shipments
originating in Oklahoma can be
shipped to the same ports that oil
men cannot ship from this side of
the state line and compete with men
who ship from the other side of the
state line For instance, the shipping
rate from here to Fort Worth is
lie a hundred. or 35c a barrel for
carrying oil that distance. The Ard
more shipper cannot pay this price
and compete on the market with the
Fort Worth shipper The only rem
edy for Ardmore is to get better
interstate shipping rate. The Com
mercial club is working on the prop
osition and also Tho Ardmoreite sent
letter today to Governor Cruce ask
ing him to do what he can toward
securing a rate that will permit the
relineries to locate in Ardmore in
stead of being forced to cross the
state line into Texas.
