WHY ARE GEORGIA'S NATIONAL
REPRESENTATIVES SO INDIF
FERENT TO THE FARMER.
Dear Sir: Why is it that our Geor
gia Congressmen don’t take any
more interest in the farmers than
they do? One of the main reasons
Is that the daily press of the state
Ss under the control of the corpora
tions, and. instead of these papers
supporting any one who would try to
fbenefit the farming class, they would
■belittle his efforts, misrepresent him,
In such a manner as to make him
appear rediculous in the eyes of his
constituency.
Another very good reason why we
have no more done for the farmer by
our own Congressmen, is the fact
that we haven’t men in office who
have the courage and abilty to lead
a. fight of the kind, that is necessary
to free the farmers from slavery to
the corporations. Stop for a mo
ment and take stock of Georgia’s
delegation in Congress, and see what
you will find? The most of our Con
gressmen are men of very ordinary
mentality. ’1 lie most any of them
has ever succeeded in doing was to be
state’s attorney in our courts, or
judge of some inferior court. Look
at your Congressman and decide for
yourself if he is. in your opinion,
tiie best man in your district to rep
resent you, and 1 am sure that you
will admit that lie is about the last
man you would select to represent
you in Congress if it was left to you
’io say who should represent you. But
these little fellows cultivate politics
Dora the time they are admitted to
the bar until they are elected to of
i i ce.
They are forever in the way of
men of ability that would be good
to represent the people if they were
not forced to go into an expensive
campaign in order to defeat these
professional politicians. Tnese little
fellows work for office at all times.
It is their one ambition to hold of
fice, and by working day and night
they often deceive the people into
thinking, tnat just because they have
held some office in the courts, they
i re competent to represent the peo
ple in Congress. There is no reason
why we should think that because
some fellow has won a case in court,
that he is a statesman. There is as
much difference in statesmanship
and being a successful criminal law
yer as there is in black and white.
Often verdicts are gained in our
courts by some trickery with the jury
and these little one-by-two lawyers,
who are eternally looking forward to
going to Congress, are the very class
of who do more to
L.< ttie jury than any other class of
lawyers. Notice the newspapers, and
ji st as soon as a lawyer has been
elected to the judgeship or solicitor
ship of some court circuit, he is hav
ing his name mentioned as a candi
date for Congress. It is a shame
upon the intelligence of Georgians,
that they permit themselves to he
“hoodooed” and induced into sup
porting men of this class for Cong
ress.
When our people learn to treat
these one-by-two lawyers as they de
serve to be treated, and we go out
and seek the man whom we know to
be the right man, instead of per
mitting ourselves to be imposed upon
by these chronic office seekers, then,
and not till then, will men of the
right kind be willing to enter a cam
paign for offices of any kind.
LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
THE JEFFERSONIAN
Here in Georgia where one who is
competent enters politics, what does
it mean, but to be lied upon and
blackmailed, by a class of henchmen
of corporations, hired and kept for
the purpose of helping decent men
from entering public life, it is only
men who have no conception of de
cency and no regard for their fami
lies that can afford to go into a cam
paign these days. Corporations, have
at their beck and call’’ newspapers
willing and ready to publish any
slander or abuse against men who
would go out and fight these monied
interests.
What does a soul-less corporation
care for the feelings of a gentleman’s
family? They humiliate those who
would expose their rottenness is the
one method they bold dearest. Well
do they know that at all times they
can secure some dirty newspaper to
publish their slanders and calumies.
These are the reasons, my dear
readers, why no better men than we
now have, refuse to enter public life.
If good men could be assured that
the people would spew out of tbeir
mouths these lying politicians and
vindicate them at the polls by elect
ing them, instead of seeing them go
down in defeat and humiliation by
some henchmen of the corporations,
we would have decent men ready to
take up our fights and carry our
cause to victory. But as long as men
oi character are forced to spnd all
they can make in a lifetime upon one
campaign against the combined con
tributions of corporations and then
possibly suffer defeat, because tbe
men whom they are trying to aid
will be persuaded and hired to sacri
fice them and elect, some dirty
chronic office seeker, we may ex-
A v ct to nave no real representation
in Congress.
All Georgia, will have to represent
her will be figure heads, men who
only lock for office and not for fights
against the corporations that are now
exploiting the people, as has never
been done before.

A NEW FRIEND AND A BELIEVER
IN THE JEFFERSONIAN.
Dear Sir: I have just subscribed
for The Jeffersonian. I have been,
reading it very closely. I certainly
agree with Hon. Thomas E. Watson’s
views and points on different sub
jects, especially on Roman Catholic
ism and the Leo M. Frank case. As
your paper is the only one that pub
lished the evidence and facts in re
gards to the Frank case.
We regret very much to learn that
Mr. Watson has a rase in court and
hope that he will be able to prove
himself clear of the charge, and w r ish
that he may live a hundred years
to come and still cotinue his good
work. And may his enemies become
his dearest friends. God be with you
and yours.

Dear Sir: Under the date of Oct.
18th, I notice an editorial in the
“Columbus Ledger,” a daily printed
in Columbus, Ga., scoring you for

Really it seems to me that the

have one paper in the South we can
depend on for the truth.
I enclose clipping for your inspec

Everlastingly your friend,
