Now, look at it from this "angle::"

Now, look at it from thSs "angle:"
Suppose the Government had taken sides
with the producers, instead of the gamblers,
and had loaned them the same money at per
cent, storing the cotton In warehouses that
gave bond and, at the same time, creating an
Insurance Board for inland cotton, as well
as cotton on shipboard!
Don't you see how immensely better it
would have been, for all parties, except the
gamblers?
The Government would have made just as
much on export cotton, just as much on the
insured ships, just as much on the money
loaned, and would have greatly increased the
profits, by the extension Of the Insurance
policies to the cotton stored In the bonded
warehouses.
With the borrowed money, the farmer could
have paid his debts, the merchant would not
have gone into bankruptcy, the sherifs
wouldn't have been selling livestock and
land, and the whole South would have felt the
beneficial effects
At it was, the farmers lost at least $50
bale on 100000 bales directly, and God
knows how much more, indirectly.
Who gained?
The gamblers won at least $50 bale on
100000 bales, or S210,000,000.
The Government risked $138, 900, and
made taco!
Did any Government ever deal more
dastardly blow to honest producers, for the
purpose Of enriching dishonest non-pro-
ducers?
In the long history of governmental crimes,
there is no blacker page than this.

TO meet the bluff and the falsehoods of
those Americans who have foresworn
loyal principles, and have become oath bound
subjects Of foreign power, I have carefully
prepared the above-named pamphlet.
The men who take that oath are traitors
to our Government, and spies in our camp.
They are armed and drilled. as military

their fellow citizens.

had the magnificent opportunity to buy
the Pacific Railroads. aOit1t0ut the 5nuestuaeg.t
Of O single Dollar
The Government could have taken the vast
properties IN satisfaction for the debt which
the Roads owed it,
Stanford, Huntingdon, Croker, Gould,
and others had made huge fortunes out of it,
and had then let the property run down, Just
as the Wall Streeters did with the Central of
Georgia, preparatory to buying it at public
sale
The Government had not only given to the
Pacific Railroads an empire, carved out Of
the public domain, but had guaranteed the
interest on their bonds
Of course, the corporations allowed the
genial Government to pay the interest
LISTEN!
In transportation charges and In this pnv-
aoent Of interest, our ge'adaI Government had
poured into the Pacific Companies more than
ii he'd cost them to construct the Roads
Please understand what I mean: it is this
The Roads held an account against the
Government for the carriage Of troops, NUM-
tl0ns, supplies, etc, and this account was
credited on the account which the Govern
ment held against the Companies for interest
paid on the bonds.
III Ctnef words, the Government held an
immense claim against the Companies, for
cash advanced on their debts; and the genial
Government kindly "took it in trade"
Add the amount so taken in trade, to the
balance due Uncle Sam, and the sum total
was more than the Roads cost
Thus the genial Government paid for TIE
Roads, and then allowed the Companies to
keep them!
During the second term of President Ceve-
land, the Government forecosed for the
balance still due on the debt, which, according
to my recollection was not very much less than
$70,00O,0OO
The Government could have bought in the
property for less than the debt. Just as the
Wall Streeters did in the case of the Georgia
Central.
But Mr.. Cleveland was so alarmed lest he
do something wild, erratic, eccentric, crankish,
uns0und, insane, unconstitutional, damfoolish,
and socalistic, that he permitted a Wall
Street firm of fnanciers, from Jerusalem, to
snatch an amazing bargain, when they got the
vast properties at about one-half Of the I'M
paid balance of the Governments claim
Mr.. Hartman Immediately "reorganized'
the Companies, issued more than hundred
million dollars of new stock and piled up
huge fortunes for himself and his colleagues
just as j. 2. Morgans gang did with the
Georgia Central, when they issued $54 100000
of stock which took the place of the original
100000.
(Thats one way in which some men get
able to pay $4,000 for little dog, and to
employ nurses chambermaids, doctors, and
grooms for said small dog, whose collar is set
with diamonds, and who, when Ill, is pushed
around In roller-chair.)
Suppose President Cleveland had seized
the golden opportunity to acquire the Trans
continental Railroads! He need not have
paid dollar, and the property would now be

'rHE eJEFFERSONIAN

The genial Government has since bought q
Railroad in the Panama Zone and is build
ing another In Alaska: has gone into the
Marketing Business, by establishing Trade
Commission; has ventured to create an EN-
ployment Bureau; and is gradually trying to
prevail on the Steel Trust to allow it to make
its own battle-pots guns, armor, etc.
But for fear may digress too far, [ will
say what was meant in the beginning, to-wit,
that the genial Government is proud of it's
success in the Insurance Business.
Read the following news item: #@
Washington, D. C.-The bureau of war risk
insurance established two years ago when the war
sent marine insurance rates to prohibitive point
has made profit for the government of more
than 100000. 1t has issued 1,539 policies
covering S138,392,389 American cargoes and
ships carrying non-contrabrand goods. Figures
compiled today show that the gross premiums for
insurance issued amounted to $2,904,8 on
which losses have been ST. 1929, of which S58811
was recovered in salvage.
The bureau will expire by limitation September
2, but Secretary McAdoo has indicated that he
will ask Congress to extend it's life to the wars
close. at has been of ncalculable benefit to the
business of the country, he said today, has
issued insurance where it was unobtainable from
other sources and has reduced risk insurance
rates generally to a reasonable and equitable
basis
Sit right still, now, and pay attention:
When the War broke out, Marine Insurance
scared sky-high Nobody could then guess
that England would SO completely keep the
Turks, Austrians, and Germans off the seas.
Excited people saw U-boats sinking Will
liam Fryes and Guilfights in all directions,
and all the time
Consequently, Insurance rates on ocean
going vessels jumped to 20 and IS per cent
Naturally, the American ship-owners and
exporters became Calamity Howlers
Kansas and Georgia never produced lot
of farmers who could howl calamity, with
more dismal sincerity and unearthly noise,
than these rich fellows, up North, when the
misery pinches them.
No irreverent bull must ever gore their
sacred OK
Well, our genial Government felt so sorry
for these smitten rich howlers, that it took
many millions of ducats out of the Treasury,
and set them apart as nest-egg in the In
surance Business.
In September, 1914, when cotton was selling
down here at and cents, and the genial
Government was deaf to oar bowls, it began
to issue new money to the Cotton Spectators,
at per cent interest, SO that these deserving
patriots could buy our product at less than it
had cost us to make it.
The Southern bowler got $50 a bale from
the governmental financed gambler; and then
the deserving gambler took this bale to the
Insurance office, (by certified receipt and got
a policy which appraised its value at $40.
How much did the gambler pay, as premium
On the Insurance?
He paid per cent!

In the Illustration is shown a frock of
white organdy. All-over embroidery is
used for the front and back sections of
the bodice. and the SASH and small fiat
! bows that trim the bodice are of soft
taffeta.
The skirt measures three yards at the
bottom when finished. A five-inch hem
and two tucks of matching width give a
| triple tunic suggestion to the skirt. the
grouping of five tiny tuclls above the hem
and heading each of the larger tucks
lending aid to this suggestion.
The sleeves are set in smoothly. the
overlapping bodice section giving a low
shoulder line. which is fashionable and
becoming to slim figure. Small tucks
head the wide rufTle which finishes the
sleeve.
To make this. dress seven and one-half
i yards of material thirty-siX inches wide
are required. All-over embroidery usually
| runs about eighteen inches in width and
for the vest and back section one yard
will be sufficient.
If preferred, instead of all-over embroid-
cry. pretty fiouncins may be selected
and the scalloped edges Joined.

instead Of silk for the sash. and the small

dominating in the ribbon.

Stuffed Tomatoes.

Stuffed tomato salad suggests all sorts
of possibilities to the clever cook. For
whatever one may have on hand in the
way of leftover vegetables may be
used TO form the stuffing.
one good com bination is celery and
green pepper of the sweet variety. the
celery mIst be crisp and chill, and SO
must the pepper. Both should be
minced fine and mixed with French or
mayonnaise dressing. Then the toma
toes should be skinned and chilled and
the cavities should be scooped from the
center with silver spoon and knife.
A big spoonful of the stufting should be
placed in each cavity and topped with
a spoonful of mayonnaise. Serve on
crisp lettuce leaves
Another good filing is diced cucum-
bers and celery, with mayonnalse, and
still another is diced tart apple and
celery. Stuffed tomatoes can be served
either with mayonnalse. French or
cream dressing. They should always
be well chilled, and the lettuce beneath
them. should be crisp. Cold cooked
green peas or tender string beans can
also be used for filing.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK, May 29.-The choice of
one-piece gowns on the first real spring
day was so marked and the majority
of frocks were so appealing that one
heard many women over forty asking
if these were too youthful for them.
The answer invariably was that any
woman who could wear suit could
wear a one-piece frock; that if they
were not too youthful for evening
usage they certainly were not for the
street. 1t is, after all, not the garment.
