supposing that his heart has been
rendered callous by the attacks of
foes and the silence of friends, till
what he says seems to be bitter: my
heart will always throb for love to
him because his powerful pen stirred
Georgia on account of the brutal
murder of little Mary Phagan. None
but man with heart in him could
have done that.
He is wonderful man! And he
is mine! He is a product of the
same commonwealth. Georgia gave
him to me; all his brain and skill,
and heart and fighting qualities.
Fighter! Ye gods! How he can and
does fight
And let me say to every son of old
Georgia, to every son of the South
and to every son of America-blood-
bought, blOod-preserved and blood
loved America-that Thomas T..
Watson is fighting our battles.
He has the guns, he has the am
munitlon, he has the range, and, he
has the target. Abused by his infe-
riors, left in silence by those who
should be his supporters; fought by
those who would profit unrighteously
at our expense, he unlim bers his gun
from Thomson. Once a week there
goes forth charge which brings con-
sternatlon to the traitor, and a
laundering call to those who are
asleep to awake.
Gentlemen Of Georgia, Thomas E.
Watson is ours. We can do no less
than eulogize him.
Women of Georgia, Mr.. Watson
is yours. You can do no less than
teach your sons to honor him and
your daughters to respect him.
Citizens of this republic, he is
ours We cannot fail to hang a lau-
rel on the living brow Of him whom
the world, a generation hence, will
call great man.
Politicians of Georgia, I warn you
that he is yours, and you have to
acknowledge it whether you want to
or not.
I offer this tribute to the only man
Of his class in the whole world. I
had rather have him for a friend
than any man I know; and I had
rather not have him for an enemy
than any living American citizen.
Yours respectfully,
GEORGE B. CULPEPPER.

Fort Valley Man Pays Com
pliment to Watson

g. HE Macon News has been re-
I'll quested to publish the follow
ing communication:
- Fort Valley, Ca,
June 10, 1914.
The Macon News:
Sirs:-A man approached me this
morning and among other things
said: 81 believe that Tom Watson
is Georgia's greatest asset"
What he said is true. It is high
time for Georgia and Georgians to
recognize that we have in Thomas E.
Watson more than ordinary asset.
The time is passed for our people
to haggle over the trifing things.
It is high time for us to face, as men
and citizens, the serious questions of
life. 1t is high time for the pigmy
politicians and Office seekers to hide
their faces in shame; and for the
voters to assert their manhood and
look at Thomas e. Watson for what
he has been, is, and will be to the
people of our country.
1t is time for every coward to
skulk to the shadows and for every
brave man to seek the light.
1t is time for every man and wo-
man who loves liberty and hates
bondage to look the future-the i'm
mediate squarely in the
face.
There is a page of American his
tory which is about to be written in
blood. The warfare which is immi-
nent-more imminent than we dream
will be, in all probability, launched
suddenly; and will be the most de-
vastating that has ever been fought
on any field
The wall surrounding our nation
has been practically without a
Waterman till quite recently-only a
few years ago the whole nation was
sleeping, secure, as we thought, from
every invading foe. But while we
slept an enemy came, and ere we
aWoke had intrenched himself so
firmly in the very vitals of the gov
eminent that an alarm, when given,
fell on practically a people asleep.
The Empire State of the South has
always been at the front and we are
proud to boast Of the fact that we
first saw the light of day from a
cabin on a Georgia plain; that our
first breath Of air was from the at
mosphere of Georgia.; that the first
sound that greeted our ears was
from Georgia mothers tongue; and
that mother taught us mother love,
country love, and love of God.
We have lived in Georgia, we have
labored in Georgia, and our bones
will be buried in Georgia soil. Every
foot of her territory is sacred-made
so because of the fact that my ances-
tors repose on her bosom. Every
citizen of Georgia is brother, and
when I forget to honor a son Of Geor-
gia to whom honor is due: or to
respect a daughter of Georgia, then
may l forget the name my mother
gave me.
Great men I admire, good men [
honor, all men l love.
But there lives at Thomson, in the
county of McDuffie, in the grand old
State of Georgia, a man whom l adj
mire, honor and love land that man
is Thomas e. Watson.
Suppose that he has made a mis-
take in everything that he has ever
said except that which he says about
Roman Catholicism, and I will be
glad for it to be understood that my
hat is off, forever off, to him. and

- Of the Text Book Commission
many people wondered what
was Rev. Brindles utilization and
where he came from.
The members of this Sub-Commls-
sion as appointed by the State Board
of Education had power to represent
100000 school children in the selec-
tion Of school books for the next five
years; to represent the wants of pat
rons; to. advise the State Board On
text-bookology; and to see that the
people got a square deal with the
publishers.
Supt. M. L.. Britain and Prof. A.
H. Moon of the State Board gave out
the information to the newspapers
that Mr.. Brindle was country
school teacher" and represented the
country schools on this committee.
But it now developes that the said
Rev. Geo. w. Brindle is a Pennsyl-
vanfan, and had taught only two
years at Surrency, Ca, small vii
lage in Appling County, near Bailey,
the home of Prof Moon. 1t seems
rather strange that of the several
thousand country school teachers in
Georgia, fully acquainted with local
-
teacher of limited acquaintance and
experience and native of a distant
Northern State should be selected by
these gentlemen of the State Board
to advise what books should be used
in the common schools.
One illustration will show how it
worked. A Georgia civics was to be
selected Of all school books this
text should have local coloring, State
history and present local customs.
1t should be true to the sentiments
and traditions of the people and their
children who study it. The publish
ers Of Georgia authors offered their
bids; one at 18- cents and the other
at SO cents. These texts were true
to Georgia beliefs, customs and ira
ditions. Of course, the questions Of
State rights, Reconstruction and dis
reimbursement were treated accord
ing to Southern opinions The Hon.
G. R. McCrory had made strong
fight before the legislature for a
trial of the Ontario method of State
publication of school books. The
State Printer, Hon. Chas. P. Byrd,
offered one of the Georgia authors
text at IS cents, the book to be as
large and complete as the one used
at "a cents.
The school book publishers and
their allies saw that these three
Georgians we're going to demonstrate
the possibility of State publication Of
school books.
Messrs Britain and Moon got busy
to find "Friday'' in whom the Rev.
Geo. W. Brindle of Pennsylvania had
a counterpart. These members of
the State Board, especially ordained
Brindle to look after the texts on
civics. Of course, this yankee
school teacher" being fixed by special
decree, could see no good in the
Georgia rebel" Their fathers and
grandfathers had differed. Sudden
distinction, important commission,
royal association, all aided the politi-
cal strategy.
Mr.. Brindle knew that the Hon. G.
r. McCrory would want to know "the
reasons Why civics at "a cents
was adopted instead of one at Is
cents. So this Pennsylvania "coun-
try school teacher prepared ia criti-
cism on the margins of the IS cents
copy of civics for the State Superin-
tendent, M. L. Britain, who keeps it
for the special benefit of certain call
ers. Brindle gets his reward by be-
ing given a position on Prof. Moons
faculty of teachers at Baxley.
