R. R. COMMISSION :.
| HAS RETURNED
Much Business of Importance Is
Transacted at Meeting Held
in Darlington.

The state railroad commission has
returned from Darlington Ana Ana
moose, where it has been for the past
two days. More than the usual
amount of business was done at the
meeting at Darlington and much nf it
was OF more than usual Importance
It being the matter of making a
change in the train service of the
Great Northern railway.
The commission granted ,permis
sion to the company to keep the mix
ed service on the Surrey cutoff re.
Gently established, but provided that
the passenger service shall be re-
snmed August l, next. Mixed serv
ice was also permitted on the Sarles
branch for the same period of time
but the request for mixed service on
the Sherwood branch was denied.
Permission was granted to close
the Hartland station Oh the Great
\ Northern until next August, and the
stations at Diesem and Eastedge on
the Northern Pacific will be closed
for the same period OF time. The re
quest to close Hamlet station on the
Great Northern was denied. The
Farmers railroad was permitted to
close MELVILLE station for the win
ter months. In, all cases where sta
tions were closed the bulk Of the
years business-mainly in wheat
had been done and the services of ar
agent were no longer really needed
although the depots will be open and
warmed.
A delegation was over from Grace
City in the interests OF securing a
crossing at that point, which will
probably be given them in the spring
Several elevator people from Hurds
field were also in to discuss elevator
matters with the commission.
Formerly the mail train on the
Great Northern passed through Wal
colt and Colfax and the people asked
the commission to restore that train
to that particular branch from the
Surrey cutoff, on Sunday, which was
denied.
A. F. Bordulac was before the com.
mission to discuss with It various
phases of the elevator laws OF the
state.
IA large amount Of Office work was
taken care of by the commission
while here, and the board left Thurs
day morning for Anamoose, to hear a
matter regarding train service.

DID GOVERNOR SLATON AND r.
e. DAVIDSON HAVE CONVICTS
WHIPPED BECAUSE THEY
WROTE LETTERS?

Dear Sir: For the benefit of the
people, citizens and tax payers of
Georgia, l wish to ask Governor
John M. Slaton, through these col
umns, the following questions:
Did not Governor Slaton uphold
highway robbers in office in 1913?
Did he not consent to the conditions
and graft in the Canton, Ca, jail?
Did he not make some misrepresen-
tations in Savannah about the treat
ment of the Georgia convicts? Did
not Governor Slaton get a letter
from one convict asking for permis-
sion to answer in the columns of
some of the papers, his misrepresen-
tation? Did Governor Slaton permit
this man to do SO? Why not? Did
Governor Slaton not receive quite a
few letters from prisoners at the
State farm at Milledgeville with
charges against officials, treatment,
etc.? What did he do with these
letters? Did he hand them over to
r. E. Dawson, chairman Of the pris-
on commission? Why is it that some
of these prisoners received a whip
ping for writin gthese letters? Did
Governor Slaton tell r. E. Dawson,
chairman of the prison commission
to have these men whipped for writ
ing these letters to the Governor?
Or, did Dawson have it done him
self? Did not Governor Slaton re-
ceive information from people Of
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-07-30

high social position in Atlanta
about certain conditions in the State
farm at MilledgeVille? What did he
do? Was it his intention not to do
his duty as Governor of the State, or
what could it be, as he could not be
ignorant Of the facts? Did he think
the Prison Commission should look
after this? After so many COM
plants came in, why didn't he go
down himself and see that the Prison
Commission did their duty, as R. E.
Dawson, chairman of the prison COM
mission goes down there twice
month to supervise the State farm?
And, does he not know Of the graft
system existing at the State farm?
If not 1 would refer him to R. E.
Dawson, Chairman of the Prison
Commission.
l wish to let Governor Slaton ans
Wer these questions before I go any
further, as I am preparing full
statement as to how some town and
county officials and State officials are
doing their duty, and also the con-
ditions and graft systems maintained
at the State farm at Milledgeville,
and why they do not abolish the
cruel whipping system.
AS Governor Slaton runs for Uni
ted States Senator, wish to say to
the people of Georgia, that they
would make big mistake to send
such a man to the Senate or any
other public office, which I will show
in my statement hereafter.
Yours respectfully,

Farmer Dean Hits Hard LiCks and

MED by any of them; therefore we
presume it is true. I wish to further
state here that only two papers would
dare to publish my charges and they
are The Jeffersonian and the Appeal
to Reason, rank Socialist paper.
Now as to Hoke's pet hobby of a
marketing bill, I sent for a copy of
it and if it is not changed from
what it was it is not worth the pa
per it is written on, for it only pro-
vides for this government at great
expense to the farmers (for that is
where all expense money comes
FROM to get information in regard
to supply and demand and furnish
to the market thieves free of cost,
which they now have to get at their
own expense. I don't know as it
makes very much difference anyway
as now the expense of getting this
information is cut out of the price
of our products and under the new
law it would be taxed out of us in
tariff to protect the manufacturer.
Now one thing that Hoke and 9TH
ers did do, which we all ought to
vote against him for.
You all know that we have lead
ing politicians in every county. Well,
we've got one here. He used to be
Populist, but he was an ardent sup
porter of Hoke Smith in his last race
for Governor, and what has trans
pired since makes me know that
Hoke was expecting to go to National
headquarters when he started: as he
has been reWarding his ardent sup
porters in national way since he
got up there.
Well the son-in-law of this old
Pop, ardent supporter of Hoke, got a
certain u. S. P. 0. which pays SIS
per month which he, said son-in-law
hires poor country boy, as compe-
tent as he is, to do the work for $25
per month, said son-in-law pockets
the $50 per month, and rides in an
automobile while this poor crippled
farmer boys father has to take time
from his blowing to take his crippled
son to and from the P. 0. and board
him in the bargain.
Now brother farmers, before
would support such man as this,
I would scratch every name and
write SOCIALISM, or any other ism,
except Romanism, in it's place.
Yours for cleaning out,
J. S. DEAN.
P. S. If the P. o. can be attended
to for SIS per month, why not let
the whole people have the other $50,
why not let those who do the work
have the whole of it? J. S. D.

LET THE WHITE DEMOCRATS OF
GEORGIA READ THIS.!.

Washington, D. c., July Fl, 1914.
Dear Sir: Like most loyal Demo-
Gratis; I have waited sixteen years
for a Democratic Administration,
and l have to say, I have been badly
fooled. That Woodrow Wilson is
nothing more than stubborn, per-
verse, selfish man, is the least I can
say about him. His audacious at
tempt to appoint Negroes to rule
over white people has so disguised
me with him and those who stand
with him, that I would not hesitate
to do anything I could to defeat
either Of them. AS you know, we
have had a Negro as Recorder of
Deeds of this District of Columbia,
for more than twenty years. Gro
yer Cleveland outraged the Demo
cratic Party by the appointment of
Negro and it would seem that we
would be spared the humiliation of
another such contemplate act. The,
last incumbent of the office, was a
Negro from Georgia, against whom
the National Democratic Fair Play
Association, filed with the President
of the United States, three affida-
Wits from ladies employed in that
office, showing the most dlSgraceful
conditions possible.
Mr.. Wilson allowed this Negro to
serve fifteen months over his time
because he was too cowardly to ap-
point a white man, for fear of the
(so-called) Negro vote.
Because of the statements in the
newspapers emanating from the
White House, that Negro would be
appointed Recorder of Deeds in the
face of Democratic protest, our AS
ISOLATION called meeting of pro-
test, on June 30th, last, at the old
Masonic Temple, this city, at which
Senators Vardaman and Smith, and
Congressman Sisson, Hefin and 9TH
er gentlemen were invited to address

Being pressed for time, we did
not send any formal written invita-
lions, but I called the several gentle

Sooner Than Marry An Old Man
 Mary Shaughnessy Ran Away
Came from Cork and Is Going to Winnpeg-There Will Be Good Looking To ung lrishman Waiting .r for Her.

Miss Mary Shaughnessy, Cork" was what she wrote on the register at the McA1pin hotel New York, Tuesday. The clerk didn't see it at once. He was looking at Miss Mary Shaughnessy and he made no mistake. She was good to look at eyes like the deep blue of Killarney, wreath of fluffy, dark brown hair and typical Irish features About her was a purposeful air.
 Miss Mary Shaughnessy, who had arrived Monday in Boston, told her story after some persuasion. She was running away-not from the revolu- tion in Ulster, but from what she said was much worse-matrimon ony. Matrimony, Mary explained, is splendid institution when both parties are agreeable, but when She is twen- ty-three and He is older than her own father f,ir'?t is preferable.
 Mary said she had $7,00O of her own anl that her family was wealthy She had been living with her grandmother, she said, and is a cousin of Lady Moira Darragh. She was fond of her family, but when they insisted that she wed Hugh Wilson Mary packed her trunk and came to America.
 Now comes the real story. Up in Edmonton, Alberta, lives a handsome young Irishman who came to Amer lea five years ago to seek his fortune in the wheat country. He is Captain John St. Leger Moore, and the pie ture which Mary showed proved her contention that her John couldn't hide in a crowd.
 They were not engaged when John left Ireland, but frequent letters had done the trick, and when the pres sure at home became too strong
