THE ATLANTA JOURNAL, ET AL.
Intoxicated with tho auoeooo of an
cmdertaktng to overthrow tho white
primary in which It took part, the At
lanta Journal Indulge* In oome sar-
roatfe reference* to The Telegraph
becanae thl* new*pwper expressed It*
opinion* and pointed out the danger*
In *uch a revolutionary proceeding.
We care nothing about tho Journal’*
good or bad opinion. During the State
primary campaign for Governor In
1101 that newspaper led a political
rruaade which broke down the Dem
ocratic primary, over the prote*t of
Tho Telegraph, and established in
Georgia tho •’white** primary. Two

to assist In heating It nt Its own

A8KINQ FOR THE SOUTH’S SHARE
It wa« brusque Ben Tillman who,
aome years ago, ■ hocked tho South in
connection with tho tariff oubject by
declaring, “1 want my ehare of the
oteallng." But today representatives
of the Houth are asking for a duty
on a few Southern product* and the
fact ta onoerlngly commented on by
the "tariff thieve* and hogs** as If
the South was belying heroelf and
asking for womothlng that did not b*
long to her. Rut what Is more natu
ral. practical and logical than that
tha South should have what pittance
•he can obtain of benefit from a falae
economical theory, which hoa been
fastened on her In spit* of herself
and from which oho must suffer
whether ahe will or no. No party
contend* for or even admit* the pos-
alblltty any more of free trade or
even of a tariff for revenue merely.
A* long a« the protective theory la to
prevail by what right Is the Houth
to be penalised by It—to be merci
lessly mulcted for the benefit of other
sections and denied the few recipro
cal benefit* accruing to her under the
ayatem?
At the tariff hearings In Washing

MR. TAFT SIDE STEPPED.
In view of the Keefe Incident Pres
ident Roosevelt appears to have pur
sued the earns policy of nnbluihlng
denials in conducting Taft's campaign
as he did In his own In the matter
of the trust fund contribution*.
Daniel J. Keefe alone of the execu
tive council of ths Federation of La
bor, opposed the pom per* plan of
supporting Bryan.
On October it the Dem oc ratio Na
tional Committee Publicity Bureau In
New York declared that Keefe had
been promised the Immigration Bu
reau In exchange for his support of
Taft. Oil the same day Keefe denied
that he had been offered the appoint
ment by President Roosevelt. The fol
lowing day Timothy Healy, president
of the International Brotherhood of
Htritfonary Firemen, was given as au
thority for the assertion that Keefe
had been offered the Job.
On October 15 Hecretary Loeb. on
behalf of the President, denied that
Keefe had been offered the commls-
■lonershlp.
Mr. Taft In a speech on the day fol
lowing. alluded to the President’s de
nis) and said there was no need of
hln naylng anything about the Keefe
charge.
Mr. Tnft’a skilful method of side
stepping the question shows he knew
what treacherous ground he was
treading on In barking up anything
Loeb and Roosevelt might say In the
exigencies of a political campaign.
TREATY, PA8T, OR AGREEMENT?
Discussing the '’understanding** or
■agreement’* between the United States
and Japan, ths New York Evening
Poat aaya:
For the Democratic minority of
the Foreign Affnlr* Committee.
Senator Bacon assert* that any
agreement of the kind, without
tho approval of the Senate stamp

This criticism of the mere form
of the negotiation does not seem
vital or even very Important. The
agreement doe* not purport to be
a treaty. If It were, and If It un

GENIUS OF JIM HAM LEWIS.
What an edifying story thl* Is that j
come* from Washington of th* con •
science of Col Jim Ham Lewla—hd
of ths pink whiskers, and the ini-1
descent vocabulary—acquitted of an 1
obligation after fifteen years, and ths,
generous deed of good-natured big j
BUI Taft to * atruggllng young at
torney now remembered and recorded
to hi* credit? The etory Is briefly
told In a special dispatch from Wash
ington to ths Philadelphia Record a*
follows:
James Hamilton Lewis, assist
ant district attorney at Chicago,
wai before the Supreme Court to
day, and while then* sought the
clerk of the court, and ask*-d If he
might pay fow hi* certificate to
practice before the court, granted
to him many years ago.
Col. Lewis then paid the usual fee
of 110 and (doubtless with his most
distinguished air) related the follow
ing Incident:
"Fifteen year* ago I came to
this court with a little case. nnd.
after being admitted to practice,
I did not have the $10 to pay the
fee. I asked the Hollritnr General,
who was there. If 1 could owe It.
He said I might. The Solicitor
General waa William H. Taft, who
will be the next President.”
Think of the gratitude and genius
of tho man who could wait patiently j
for fifteen long year* In order to re
member and reward nt a fitting and
opportune time a generous deed like
this by proclaiming It to the world.
Year In and year out Col. Lewis had
visited Washington. Th* "little case”
with which he first came to court
had given place to cause* of the first
consequence. The struggling young
lawyer had become a flourishing prac
titioner; he had held office* of great
Importance and emolument: his name
had become one of national repute.
But atlll he watted. The Conscience
Fund eyed him curiously every time
he passed It without recognition. The
Statute of Limitations turned away
1th scorn when he walked by, know
ing It could no longer run against
him. But still, consoled bj
thought of Ms high purpose, he bided
his time, the victim of unmerited mis
understanding. And now at last he
has paid tho fee (less fifteen years In
terest) and the world knows ths se
cret of his delay.
The moral of this beautiful story,
children, la that If BUI Bryan had
been elected Col. Lewis would have
moved and scintillated In some for
eign court where hi* talent* would
have best Illustrated the nature of
one of Georgia** finest products and
the story Qf.gBIll Taft’a generous deed
(at the government’s expense) would
never have been heard of.

The Atlanta Election.
To the Editor of The Telegraph:—
Thl* city has Just passed through ont*
of the most hotly contested mayoralty
elcctlona In the political history of
the south, In which a capitalist candi
date who represented no party ot
principles, but who ran as an "Inde
pendent" against a democratic "white
primary nominee," on the so-called
Issues of "decency and morality"
on a certain occasion, and of other
alleged Indecent conjduct has fce-en
declared elected by a decisive
Jority.
This Is something unheard of In the
south, and the story of this election
might be appropriately written up
the "Second Battle of Atlanta.”
For to those who do not look at
things on the surface this disruption
of the local democratic organization
means not only that Atlanta has
placed her financial Interests In tho
hands of capitalist bankers and their
eastern allies, but that the national
republican party through their agents
In disguise have captured the capital
city of the Empire State and It is to
be put under capitalist rule with the
protection of the party of "special In-

primary system and what was left
of tho democratic party In local af
fairs but It will change the politlca*
complexion of Atlanta, of Georgia, and
the entire south.
It Is the natural result of a world
wide social revolution brought on bj
capitalist aggression and exploitation
of the producing and laboring classos,
In which Atlanta Is only an outpost;
and one of the most Inconceivable
things Is that the middle classes are
as blind to the schemes of the capital
ists as are the laboring people them
selves. Mr. Woodward, the nominee
In this contest, did not stand as a la
bor candidate, claiming to be the rep
resentative of all the people: although
it was understood that he would have
the entire support of the labor ele
ment with the exception of a. few
union labor leaders who had taken
"Independent action" In opposing him.
Thla break In the ranks of organised
labor at once made the result of the
election uncertain, nnd strenuous an
neals were made by both aides for the
labor vote.
Thorough organisation of the city
wards Info clubs waa perfected and
tho capitalist campaign was fiercely
waged to the end. Ohio nnd Penn
sylvania methods and tootles word
plainly dlscernable In dealing with the
labor vote, which caused clos# observ
ers to believe that the campaign of
the capitalist candidate was being
engineered by shrewd manipulators
from the outside, and some will not
believe that the suggestion of on "In
dependent" candidate in this contest
had Its origin In Atlanta. One of
the features was the printing of their
tickets on blue paper by the Maddox
campaign managers, which waa be
lieved to be a black-listing scheme
for the purpose of Intimidating city
employes and other laboring men who
were afraid to vote contrary to the
wishes of their employers.
It Is certain that the labor vote did
not show up In the closing hour of
the election as was expected, which
was sufficient proof to many that they
had either been frightened or paid to
stay away from the polls.
The capitalists set out with a de
termination to elect their candidate,
and raised a campaign fund sufficient
for th* purpose.
Then by appealing to the middle
clasaea on the fake Issues of "decency
and morality” they elicited the sup
port and co-operation of the "business
Interests"—merchants and manufac
turers, who are the largest employer*
of labor.
Having worked their scheme go
cessfully as to absolutely know that
the election waa thelre. they
formed a pool and with unlimited
money they opened up booths and em
ployed brokers and commission men
to make beta on the result. Men wno
had never been known to have money
before were amply supplied with funds
before were amply supplied with funJs
ready to place on their candidate.
The betting wai recklessly carried
on by them at odds of from two to
five to one In the face of the wildest
enthusiasm and the greatest dsmon-
tratlons In the Interest of the "nomi
nee” candidate that had ever been
known In the history of the city and
thousands of dollars have changed
hands.
It waa & capitalist ”skln game” aa
all of their games are, and those who
opposed their "Independent” candidate
and were fools enough to bet on tbclr
tricks have not only suffered defeat,
but have had to pay dearly for th*
sport and the winnings ot the other
eld* will probably be sufficient to
the cost of the capitalist cam*
paign.
But the democrats may have to pay
dearly for the "Pharisaical buncombe"
as Th* Telegraph editor has said: for
thousands will go Into the Socialist
party which seems to be the only party
In which the working clasaea can ex
pect to get a "square deal.
