Dear Sir: The Jeffersonians or

and put the papers out on the
streets. They sold like wild fire.
could have sold several hundred
more [ believe if I had had them.
We are hoping to see the street sales
OF your paper go up each week. but
might suggest it would not be a bad
policy to have some local news in it.
This is only a suggestion.
I am informed that the paper
created some little stir among some
Of the Irishmen this morning, but
what Of it? I am able to stand my
ground and do what an American is
given under the Constitution, Gree
dom of speech" and to do as he
please, so long as he does not in
fringe upon the rights of another.
God speed your cause for right,
and here is trusting that soon you
may be sending Jacksonville 1000
papers per week instead of 200.
Once upon a time there was
Catholic in the city of Jacksonville
who was SO we'll thought of that
beautiful park in one of the suburbs
was named after him when was
called "Dignan Park"
Some time ago street preacher
was in Jacksonville who created
quite little stir among the Catholic
Iaity. This mater has not, been for
gotten and one of the councilmen
decided it was a good time to change
the name of this park and he pro-
Cpp6nd infrn6nnn
changing its name to Confederate
Park" This idea seemed to meet
the approval of the public and the
matter was so agitated that the or
dinance was passed by the council
and promptly approved by the
mayor Therefore we have no more

Our people, in 1916, will not con-
fuse the party dominant in Georgia
forty years ago, with the present
Kaleidoscope organization. The
broken pledges Of the Baltimore
Convention; the broken pledges and
rascality of the Macon Convention
will not be forgotten in two years.

Politics in New York we're in q
normal condition. Thu old parties
were arranging to have their con-
ventions and it was expected on all
sides. among Democrats as we'll as
Republicans, that there would be a
Republican victory. But the Colonel
could not kerp out of the cam

the stage and explained that the
pressure upon him by those who
wanted a pure gover eminent was so
great that he but followed an i'm
peratiye duty in mixing in. There
was a pressure sure enough, but it
was not from without his own
anatomy. He entered the Repub
iican convention and at once took
charge. He turned down the candi-
date for governor whom the con-
ventien and the Republicans gener-
ally wanted and had a candidate
of his own selection named, with
the result that his randidate was
repudiated by the people at the
polls and the Democratic candidate
was triumphantly elected. The de-
feat was 50 humiliating that the
Colonel. was for a good while
silenced. When he appeared next
il was as a progress sive or a pla;-

principles which every crank in

money of Mr.. Perkins and the help

ULSTER CRISIS

BY HERBERT TEMPLE.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.

special Cable TO The Atianta GeofytdUs
LONDON, March National
alarm existing over the army situa-
ton arising from the Ulster crisis
was increased to-day
Grave developments We're promised
during the day as a result of secret
orders issued to all general officers
commanding army divisions in Egg
land to report themselves at once to
Colonel j. e. B. seely. Secretary for
War
This order, taken in conjunction
with the declaration of Premier AS
quith that the Liberal Government
would not tolerate in its service any
body of men who demand assurances
as to what they win or win not be
required to do" showed plainly that
the Government had resolved on
strong measures to insure military
discipline.
Army Crisis in LimeIisht.
The actual home rule question and
the threatened civil war in Ulster
Province were oVershadowed by the
critical situation which developed
from the wholesale resignation OF
army officers, who refused to serve
against the Protestant anti-home rul-
ers in the North of Ireland.
Although Premier Asquith has adj
mitted that the Government blum
dered and War Secretary Seely is
still willing to resign because he ''un-
fgln an4taa n
the Cabinet" the Liberals who are
supporting the Asquith regime de-
clare that the Ministry has success
fully weathered the storm. and that
from now on the Unionist attacks
must necessarily grow weaker on
the other hand, Unionists claim that
victory is within their grasp. and
that the Asquith Ministry will be
short lived.

to go to her aid Within a short time
the cargo was reached and there was
