Policy, Declares
Colonel.

New Orleans, Sept. Theodore
Roosevelt, in a speech tonight, de-
cried the backward and reaction
airy" policy of the Government in
handling the tariff question, particu-
larly as it affected Louisiana sugar
interests and reiterated his charges
that paying $25,000.00O to Colum-
bia as a result of the deal whereby
the United States obtained the Pana-
ma Canal zone would be blackmail.

growing section of the State.
Admission to the auditorium was
gained only by cards. which had
been issued by the local Progress

dress the place was filled and the
doors were closed. The police had
some difficulty with the crowds at
the several entrances. 90.
Col. Roosevelt dwelt on principles
of the Progressive party, but laid es-
pecial stress upon the sugar srowers
of Louisiana and stood out strongly
for Federal control of the Mississ-
ippi River.
In the afternoon he talked a few
minutes at Southern Park, where
a Labor day picnic was in progress.
In that address he emphasized that
labor unions in principle were all
right, and toward a good end. I'm
ions, however. he said, should be
careful that their leadership did not
rest with men who placed their per-
sonal interest above that of the body
they represented.
There are little crooks as well as
big crooks, and the Progressive party
is after all of them" he said. ..
Col. Roosevelt will begin his trip
through the Third district soon aft
er his train arrives at Franklin to-
morrow morning. He will 60 from
there TO New iberia by automobile,
making several stops In the trip of
forty miles. At New iberia he will

Worse Than Crop Failure.

Just listen at the Democrats talk
crop failures. 1t is true the corn crop
of southern Indiana and Illinois and
southeast Missouri is going to be a
total failure; but this is not hurting
the farmer as bad financially as the
provisions of the Simmons-Under-
wood Free-Trade bill. That $50 you
have lost on the Missouri mule would
buy several loads of corn.-Perry-

New York, Sept. 5.-A new course
of study in connection with geog-
raphy and history is to be taught
during the period of the European
war. A name has not yet been given
to the new course. but DR.. William
II. Maxwell, Superintendent of
Schools, in a statement of instruc-
lions to teachers made public to-
day, has outlined its principal fea-
lures, which will have to do with
the movements from day to day of
the armies engaged in the Euro
pean struggle.
For this purpose" said DR.. Max
we'll in his instructions. "the news
papers are the most valuable source
of information at this time. This
is an important epoch in the history
of the world and the pupils of our
public schools will see new boun-
diaries In the making. For that rea-
son I shall suggest that in all school
rooms, a map Of the continent of
Europe be displayed on which from
day to day, the changes in the armies
and the navies may be noted. Prob
ably a blackboard map will suffice
for this purpose.
1t is understood that teachers of
the schools. when the terms begin
a week from next Monday. will
have arranged for collateral read
ing in history and geography. SO
as to keep their pupils Informed
concerning the Significance Of all
the battles. Ky

Lying on his cot in Grady Hospi-'
tai, slowly recovering from a lauda-
mum dose which he took in a futile
attempt to end his life in the office
of a public stenographer in the Fourth
National Bank Building, the Rev.
Robert j. HUFF. a Baptist minister of
College Park, "Wednesday issued
warning TO all young men to beware
OF debt.
Il want The Georgian to tell young
men for me to keep out of debt and
live within their income, for it was
an awful burden of debt, with which
| have oeen overwhelmed for fourteen
years, that forced me 20 make this
terrible attempt on my life" said the
minister. in faint and tremulous
tones. Debt means nothing but mis-
cry and trouble"
Always the Handicap OF Debt.
With a wife and nine children to
feed ANA rlothe. HUFF said, he had
found il Impossible to escape from
the dreaded specter of debt with the
meager salaries he drew for his
preaching and in his efforts at a
livelihood in other lines of work. He
had striVen hard to keep the wolf
a failure. Fipally, when life at last
seemed an utter blank, he sought
death as a pahacea for his troubled
mind and crushed spirits.
Huff explained that he was forced
TO go in debt fourteen years ago when
he went to school to prepare himself
for his life's work, and that, no mat
| ter how hard he tried, he had never
been able to lift it.
He ventured the opinion that he
| probably had committed a great sim
| in seeking self destruction, but de-
| clared his belief that he would have
| been saved had he died.
When l die, l will go into the great
beyond believing as firmly as ever in
my God" he murmured. Had death
taken me yesterday, | believe my
| cause for self destruction sufficient to
| have brought the forgiveness of the
God who understandeth all things.
God can see into the hearts and
consciences of all men. and He knows
full well the reasons that drive men
to a suicides grave. From my own
pitiful experience I feel satisfied
that a man can commit suicide with
out being forever lost"
Bees Wife's Forgiveness.

Tuesday afternoon. and the would be

begged her to forgive him He asked
that his children be kept in ignorance
OF his act
Huff declined 20 answer a question
as to whether he again would try to
kin himself
Il can't say as to that" he replied
as he shook his head gravely.
HUFF explained that he had occu-
pied pulpits in Winder, Lakewood
Heights, Oakland City, and other
points, but that he had not been en-
gagged in active ministerial work for
several months.
Il have resolved now. however" he
said. determinedly, that when l get
