INFLUENCE GAGGED THE
DAIEIES,

Dear Mr.. Watson: I have read
with q great deal of enthusiasm each
edition Of The Jeffersonian for the
past several months, which paper I
consider the most independent and
unbiased published in my native
state; and I am taking the liberty Of
writing you at this time to express
my hearty endorsement Of your stand
in regard to the Frank case.
The papers of this city, like those
of Atlanta, ignore the real facts in
the case, and vindicate Ex-Governor
Slaton for an act which trampled the
legal rights of his high office in the
dust. The Jeffersonian is the only
paper, to my knowledge, that has
handled the facts in this case as they
are, and has not been poisoned by
Jew money, or other influences.
Assuring you that I, together with
a host of others in this community,
bid you God speed in the work that
you are doing for the people of
Georgia, I am,
Your friend,
o. CHAMBERS.

Here it is: This administration
found time to squander one hundred
and sixteen million dollars in excess
of the most profligate year of Roose-
welt or Taft; it found time to- refund
the two per cent. bonds at 3 per cent.
when the Harrison administration
paid off $3.50, 100000 of the public
debt, and also refunded the 4 per
cent. bonds at per cent. it found
time to accommodate the Alaska
marauders; it found time to loan the
spectators money with which to buy
the farmers cotton at $50 bale, at
the same time insuring this cotton,
after it left the farmers hands, at
$40 bale, thus favoring the specu-
lator where it refused to aid the pro-
Queer; it found time to supply the
Wall Street spectators with $780,
100000 of new Aldrich-Vreeland
money to purchase cent cotton
with; it also found time to create a
new system of National banks, in
which the bankers pay no interest on
the new money which the government
creates for them, and besides gives
them government deposits free Of
interest, but these earnest and hon
est men" found no time to keep faith
with the American farmer and give
him a system Of Rural Credits.
1t is perfectly natural for our fell
low Democrats to seek to paliiate this
miserable infamy, and it is small
wonder that they are attempting to
shift the issue from Congress to the
state legislatures. Will they succeed,
and will they be able to minimize the
disastrous consequences Of this
broken faith?
President Wilson's spokesman,
Senator John L. McLaurin, delivered
himself Of a Wilson speech in At
lanta, September 81, before the mass
meeting of the Formers Union and
business men. He read letters from
President Wilson, Mr.. Harding, Sec
rotary McAdoo and Private Secretary
Joseph Patrick Tumulty, the Catho-
lie henchman. These letters teemed
with optimistic forecasts. Senator
McLaurin hesitated in his letter read
ing long enough to pay Mr.. Wilson
a glowing tribute, and the audience
failed to respond with wild applause.
The Senator was astounded. He
could not understand it. He put on
more eloquence, and paid our Presi-
dent the second glowing tribute, and
it brought forth no rounds of APP
plause. The senator went home in
a bewildered state of mind. How
ever, if he had been any judge Of
human nature he could have solved
the GOODNESS manifested by these
Georgia farmers when Mr.. Wilson's
name was mentioned. These men
realized that they had been betrayed,
and they had discovered that the
Democratic platform was :'molasses
made to catch flies"
Upon what counterfeit coin are we
asked to compromise this issue? In
stead of giving us a system of Rural
credits, they are offering Ware
house Receipt law, and this measure,
in it's original state, was drawn by
Mr.. Orville A. Park, General Counsel
for the Georgia Bankers Association.
Why is this Association SO tremend-

he Baltimore platform OF 1912,
hong other things, declared, that
our pledges are made to be kept when
in office, as well as relied upon dur
ing the campaign"
Candidate Wilson, in one of his
campaign speeches, said to his audi
ence. "Our platform is not melasses
to catch flies. 1t means business.
It means what it says. 1t is the ut
terance of earnest, and honest men,
who intend to do business along
those lines, and who are not waiting
to see whether they can catch votes
with those promises before they de-
termine whether they ere going to
act upon them or not"
How did the Democrats catch the
American farmer, in the last cam
paign? 1t was upon their solemn
promise to give him system of
Rural Credits.
Have they kept the faith with the
American farmer, whose vote chang
ed the political complexion of this
country?
What honest attempt have these
Democratic leaders made to give the
American farmer system of Rural
Credits?
Next year, the Democrats must
face the American farmer, and ask
him for his endorsement of their
trusteesMp, and the farmer is apt
to tell them that they did not keep
the faith The Democratic leaders
are aware of this feeling now abroad
in this land, hence their attempt in
the Southern states to change this
issue from nationwide to statewide.
Instead of forcing a Democratic
Congress to carry out Democratic
campaign pledge these leaders are
shifting the issue from Congress to
the state legislatures.
"These earnest, and honest men"
do not care to see the farmers
bondage broken. Their pJedges were
not made to be kept. Their platform
was "molasses, made to catch flies"
They did not mean business, as Can
didate Wilson said.
Will the farmer submit to this base
betrayal, and accept in lieu of
System of Rural Credits these worth

Receipt measures, etc?
