HASTY EFFORTS NOT NEEDED,
Fleming DuBIgnon Gives Ilfs View
of the Efforts to Reorganize
the Domooratlc Parry.
Savannah, Ga., Nov. 10.—Hon.
F. G. (luBignon, chairman of the
State Democratic Executive Com
mittee, was this morning asked
for his opinion of the eii’ort
to re-organize the Democratic
party.
Mr. duBignon said he did not
think that any sudden or hasty
effort would or should be made
toward re-organizing the Demo
cratic party—that of course there
was a losson in the defeat of the
party on last Tuesday which
would not ho,overlooked, but that
the policy of the Democratic
party in the future would be
controlled by those men who had
been loyal to the party organiza
tion, and that its counsels would
never be swnyed by those who
had deserted it in the time of its
need.
Confidentially now, our opin
ion is that Bryan was defeated
because McKinley got the most
votes.
We do not all agree on-politics,
but wo can all agree in pulling
together for the upbuilding of
Oodartown and Polk county.
be re-organized, it must be by
the men who fought its battles,
and not by skulkers and deserters.
Under a change in the law, the
election for Justices of the Peace
and Bailiffs will be bold here
after on the first Saturday in
December.
Now, let everybody get to
gether and work for Oedartown
and Polk county. As we are to
have four years of republican
prosperity for the whole country,
let’s have four years of real, live,
bustlingbusiness for Oedartown.
With three cotton mills, a fur
nace, a knitting mill, cotton oil
mill and two foundries in opera
tion, a spinning and knitting
mill in course of construction,
and another big cotton factory
promised, Oedartown is certainly
“strictly in it.”
A strong movement is on foot
in tile Legislature to make its
sessions biennial instead of an
nual. Well, once in two years
is often enough. It would give
plenty of time for all needed
legislation, would save the state
heavy expense, and would re
move the possibility of many
“fool laws.”
The State Agricultural Depart
ment is doing a good thing in
protecting our people from the
importation of the San Jose scale,
tlie deadly enemy of fruit and
forest trees. The Cumberland
Nursery, of Nashville, Tenn., sent
a shipment of infected trees to
Georgia last week in violation of
law, and Commissioner Stevens
had them confiscated and burned.
AN EXPLANATION.
In justice to Hon. Philip Cook,
our popular and cnpablo Secre
tary of State, we publish the fol
lowing letter from him in re
sponse to our comments last week
on his proposed plan for a uni
form system of granting charters
for manufacturing enterprises:—
Atlanta, Nov. 0th.,>1000.
Dear Sirs:—From your remarks in
the marked copy sent me, I see that
you have misunderstood my purpose
in recommending a uniform system of
charters for State Corporations. It
was not my purpose to have changed
the present law requiring suoli corpor
ations to advertise their intention to
apply for charters and amendments to
nhartera in the “official gazette of the
county in which Is to he located the
principal oflico of the corporation,”
etc. I simply wanted to be in a posi
tion to answer tile hundreds of In
quiries received at this office in re
gard to all kinds of corporations of
which we have no record. It would
Bimply mean more work for my olerk
and myself, without additional pay, as
our salaries are fixed by the constitu
tion of the stale, and all fees received
hero are turned into the Slate Treas
ury, as required by law.
No, indeed, it was never my Idea to
change the method of advertising. I
feel that tile residents in the locality
in which the corporation is to be es
tablished are the parties most inter
ested, next to the incorporators, and
certainly the "home paper” Is the one
assured medium through whiolt to
notify them of the intended applica
tion for charter.
Yours very truly,
Philip Cook,
Secretary of State.
Tito explanation of Mr. Oook is
ample and satisfactory, and tlie
Georgia Legislature will do
good tiling for the state by tak
ing action on tlie line suggested
by him.

MANLY in defeat.
After ono of the most remark
able campaigns in history, Hon.
William Jennings Bryan lias
gone down in defeat—a victim of
the “prosperity” argument.
Mr. Bryan takes his defeat
without bitterness, and his manly
course since the election will
strengthen the great hold lie lias
had upon tho masses of fair-
minded people. He says':
“We were defeated but are
not discouraged. The fight must
go on. I am sure that republi
can policies will be repudiated
by the people when tlie tendency
of these policies are fully under
stood. The contest between plu
tocracy and democracy cannot
end until one or the other incom
pletely triumphant.
I shall not lie a senatorial
candidate before the legislature
which lias been elected. Senator
Allen' deserves the senatorship,
which goes to the populists. Mr.
Hitchcock and Mr. W. H. Thomp
son are avowed candidates for
the Democratic senatorship. They
both deserve well of the party,
and I am too grateful to them for
past support to stand in their
way, even if I desired a seat in
the senate. I made my fight for
the presidency and I lost. I nm
not going to take other men’s po
sitions from them.”
One of tho strongest arguments
against tlie continuation of the
republican party in power was
its fostering of the trusts. Since
the election tlie Beef Trust-lias
advanced the price of all meats a
cent a pound, but there has been
no corresponding increase in the
price of cattle, hogs and sheep.
Tlie trusts will be prosperous—
nt the expense of the people.
Let us hope the people will he
prosperous enough to stand it.

EX-CON FEDERATE PENSIONS.
Georgia enjoys the distinction of
paying mor<f money than any othe
state to Confederate veterans—in fact,
more than twice as much.
Georgia has more than trebled the
amount so paid since she began to
pension the decrepit and needy sol
diers of the Confederacy. The other
Southern states are likewise moving
forward in the matter of this duty,
At last Tuesday’s election Louisiana
adopted an amendment to her consti
tution which provides that a pension
not to exceed $8 per month shall be
allowed to each Confederate soldier or
sailor veteran who possesses ail of'the
following qualifications:
“1. He shall have served honorably
from the date of his enlistment until
the close of the civil war, or until he
was discharged or paroled, in some
military organization regularly mus
tered into the army or navy of the
Confederate States until the surrender,
“2. He shall be in indigent circum
stances and unable to earn a liveli
hood by his own.labor or skill.
“8. He shall not be salaried or
otherwise provided for by the state of
Louisiana, or by any 'other state or
government.”
The amendment authorizes the Gen
eral Assembly of the state to appro
priate for the said pensions an amount
which shall not be less than $50,000
nor more than $75,000 in any one year,
provided that nothing In this article
shall be construed so as to prohibit the
General Assembly from providing ar
tificial limbs to disabled Confederate
soldiers or sailors.
Is there not something in this*Lou»
isiann amendment which demands and
should receive tho consideration and
action of the Georgia Legislature at
its present session? Should the state
pay pensions to Confederate veterans
who do not need them?
It is said that there are some rich
men in Georgia who accept pensions
for service and injuries in the Confed
erate army; that there are others who
receive large salaries and yet take the
state’s bounty.
A Confederate veteran who has as
good a war record as any man in Geor
gia tells The Journal that he has rea
son to believe that at least one thou
sand men who are now drawing pen
sions from this state are perfectly in
dependent of this means of‘support.
The man who makes this statement is
poor and advanced in years. He has a
full title to n pension, but he has never
asserted it, because he works hard and
is able to make a living. Is it right
for the tax-payers of Georgia tQ_i)e
assessed for pensions for men who
have more property and larger in
comes than 09-100 of the people‘of this
state?
This question is being asked with
greater emphasis every day, and must
be answered sooner or later.r- Atlanta
Journal.
