general assembly as a member of the
house OF representatives. In 1889 he was
elected to congress, defeating the late
Mr. George T. Barens, Of Augusta. He
served one term in the national legis-
lative body, but was defeated for re-
election by ]. c. c. Black, of Augusta.
While Mr.. Watson was ever afterwards
power in Georgia politics, ne neither
sought nor held any office until his race
for the United States senate in 1920,
when nc was elected by an overwhelm-
ing majority for term of six years.
Two accomplishments. of Senator
Watson stand out pre- -eminently in his
career One is his record as the origi-
nal advocate of rural free mail deliv-
cry, and the other is the fact that he
was the first champion OF legislation
to compel the installation of safety
appliances, such as air brakes and au-
tomato couplers, on railway equip
ment.
When Mr. Watson first advanced the
prOpOSdl 10 eSldpISiL iuidi i+SS H%'i
delivery in the United States he was
ridiculed beyond measure. He intro
duced and finally secured the enact
ment of bill providing for an expert
mental project for which 100000 was
appropriated. The experiment was
tried in Virginia and the result was to
establish rural free mail delivery
throughout the country.
Wins Against Opposition.
His initial effort to compel the in
stallation of safety equipment on rail-
way trains was met with strenuous op-
position from the railroad interests of
chat day, but with his characteristic,
relentless championship of his idea, he
pursued his quest to a successful con-
clusion.
Among the incidents recalled by
: those who knew him best is that oc-
2! casion IN the administration of the late
I resident Theodore Roosevelt, during
the panic OF 1907 and 1908, wAen Mr.
! lFdtSOn "dS CdiiSu ~ "eSiHAis wa ~
-. Preside It Roosevelt for a personal con-
ference.
Air Watson, whom President Roose-
, wclt knew as an eminent authority on
/ economic questions, reminded the
/ president that under al almost for
gotten act of congress passed in 1868,
the president was empowered to issue
an almost unlimited quantity of gold
ara silver certificates.
President Roosevelt in an immediate
conference with certain large financial
interests of the country informed them
II his intention and demanded that the
b.g banking interests take steps to
relieve the situation.
Incidents Recalled.
Banking relief was forthcoming al
most Immediately and the gold and
silver certificates were not issued. The
situation had been saved by Mr.. Wat
sons suggestion.
Scores of incidents transpiring in the
everyday life of the dead senator are
being recounted today as his home
people here in Thomson await the ar
rival Of his remains. His friends re-
mark upon his devotion to his family,
his passionate love for children and
his utter desolation following the death
of his son and daughter only about
year apart about three years ago.

ALMIGHTY "BoWED OUT"
Noted Presbyterian Minister Raps the
COLLEGES.

ColtegeS.
What the times demand is not
fewer college men, but fewer colleges
that take the religious convictions out
of the youths who enter them" assert
ed Dr. S. Edward Young at the Bed
ford Presbyterian church, Brooklyn,
says the New York World of Monday
practically all of our leading in
stitutions of learning, such as Harvard,
Yale, Princeton, Wellesley, Mount
Holyoke, Vassar and Smith, began as
religious educational enterprises, but
many Of them have politely bowed the
Almighty out. The quarter of million
of young men our universities and col
leges and the rather less number Of
young women in like or nearly like
educational establishments will return
home de- faithed If the present tendency
continues.
The trouble is not that scientific
theories supposed by many to be sub
versive of Scripture truth are taught
at these places, but that the whole
subject of religion is left out or soft
pedalled
ITO take about one-third of the time
devoted to sports in the college or uni
versity and about one-third OF the
hours given over to social life and use
these under consecrated religious
leadership would be to make our seats
of higher learning infinitely more worth
while"

Returning to Thomson, his old homo,
Mr.. Watson plunged Immediately into
the actual practice of law, ard for
fifteen years sustained a reputation as
one of the most brilliant members of
the Georgia bar.
His literary work, which won for him
undying fame as one of the worlds
foremost authors in certain lines. was
begun after he had practically aban-
doned the practice of law. He had,
however during all these years, been
a. close student of literature and had
laid the groundwork Of his literary
success by reading literally thousands
Of reference works. d.
His History Of France" conceded to
be one of the finest examples OF his
torical literature eXtant and which is
now used as textbook in the schools
Of France, is generally regarded as his
supreme effort. Mr.. Watson once re-
marked to friend that he read more
than 1900 reference works before he
wrote the History of France" and the
Life of Napoleon"
Among the other outstanding works
from Mr.. Watson's pen are the Life
and Times of Thomas jefferson" an
historical novel, Bethany; book of
poems, and another work of prose and
miscellany.
Enters Politics.
The year 1882 marked his entrance
into the political field, when he was
elected to and served one term in the
