lows:
Many years ago, Gen. Ben Butler
was the Democratic governor of
Massachusetts, and made terrible
accusations against his own people,
creating a sensation which was felt
for months throughout the union.
Governor Benjamin F. Butler ac-
ustd the state of Massachusetts of
inhuman treatment of her paupers,
of doing them to death by this
treatment; and then of tanning
their hides for use as leather.
General Butler's charges were
made specifically against the Ames-
bury almshouse (as 1 remember the
name) and my recollection is that
he substantially made out his case.
But fair minded people of other
states never thought of holding
to moral responsibility, for these
Amesbury atrocities, the whole state
of Massachusetts.*
Nor did Governor Butler raise
himself in the estimation of the
country at large, by his spectacular
raignment of his state; it was sus

Therefore the state spurned hint,
when he offered himself as candi
date for the United States senate.
Not until after he had thus been
rejected by the state did he pub
lish his arraignment of her people
and her record.
It is the old, old case of the dis
charged servant venting malicious
abuse upon the master that dis
charged him.
The libellous pamphlet entitled
Georgia and the Negro,” is the foul
product of the Inter-racial League,
whose incendiary agents had to be
driven out of Arkansas a couple of
years ago.
A "New York correspondent wrote
to me, more than n year mro, warn
ing nie to be on the lockout Air the
same agent, stating that he had been
sent to Atlanta.
My correspondent even gave me
the name of the building in which
this incendiary from the north would
take an office.
There was nothing for me to do
except to await developments; but
as soon ns the miscalled "Dorsey
pamphlet,” appeared followed by out
bursts; in so many northern papers,
1 naturally thought of the warning
of my New York friend.
That "record of 35 years” was not
compiled by Hugh Dorsey; it is the
work of the social incendiary, hired
by the New York Inter-racial So
ciety.
Governor Dorsey himself does not
know a thing new about Georgia's
record.
What he himself now knows, be
knew when he was solicitor and
while he has been governor.
He knew all about it last fall
when he was candidate for the sen
ate.
He knew all about it during the
months he was running ov.*r the state
asking these wicked Georgians to
take stock in his bank.
The wicked Georgian did not take
stock in Dorsey's proposed bank and
•hey would not send him tc the sen
ate; henve the sore head, uud the
