After noting that this was "so pal pably and. undeniably true that no answer was attempted." the Kansas City Post goes on to ,«ny: "It would be hard to find In the en tire North a man so Intensely partisan In his Republicanism as to assert that In case a Southern Democrat were! elected President there would he the I slightest danger of scandal or dishon esty In the public service. Even the Northern papers concede the absolute honesty and high conception of public duty of the Southerner when In office, nnd all the world knows his ability to handle questions of great pith and mo ment In the realms of diplomacy and upon the Intonted field.” JEFFERSON DAVI6 AND HIS CRITICS. The Boston Transcript. speaking tot itself and the typical Northern sentiment, doubtless. Is not ready to forgive or regard President Jefferson Davis, of the Southern Confederacy, with charity. The Transcript says: "The people, of the North and West, while time ha* softened the nsporitlea that slavery and the Civil War engendered, have hy no means come to regard Jef ferson Davis with the same forgiving appreciation they be stow upon Lee. To them there is little* or nothing to admire 1n Jefferson Davis, and a great deal 1 yet remaining to be forgiven.” The Transcript next undertakes to express the sentiment of the' South toward Mr. Davis. It says: "In the South, to judge from the burden of countless reminis cences, nnd the estimates of him expressed In confidential mo ments by representative South erners. the regard for Davis, sym bolized by the memorial, is that of the hend rather than the heart. Towa-ds him there may be felt esteem but not that warm, chelshlng love, which follows the memory of Lee. To tho pride of a section that leads It to honor the chiefs of a cause, which it would never seek to- re vive must be attributed the Southern demonstration In honor of Jefferson Davis.” The Transcript, in its ignorant par tially Informed way. would Judge of the sentiment of the South for the chief of its fallen cause from the Ig noble carping few who stoop or would stoop to vent spleen or disap pointment on the most prominent target exposed to attack. The abuse heaped on President Davis by those who disagreed with him on his own side during the War Between the Stntos. was not n circumstance to the anathemas poured out on the head of Abraham Lincoln by his ene mies nt tho North, pending the vary ing fortunes of that tremendous con flict, and by the same token the name of Lincoln, during the war and for some years after It. was the most bit terly assailed and hated in the South of all tho Northern leaders. If the North had been defeated in the final outcome the complaints In the South against Davis would have been a zephyr compared with the storm of contunteij that would have broken on Lincoln's head, and with some show of Justice, because while Jef ferson Davis merely obeyed the de lates and responded to the will of hls people In all that he dkl. Lincoln pushed on the conflict, in contempt of the conciliatory sentiment of tho North and precipitated that section Into It largely in violence to the pop- ula - will In some if not the larger portion of the Northern States. One thing cannot he taken from the South an.I that is she voduntnrily entered : : - :!: • wc.r of secession and she has -hir 'd over ’be results even of crime in which he made of "assas- have had some bouts with him our selves, but we believe that there Is a great deal worth thinking about in hls suggestion. It will be as effective as any plan yet suggested, and it will be more honest and constitutional than some of those proposed. His bill will have for its purpose the disfranchise ment of all voters who are in default for the space of three years in the pay ment of taxes. It will be In the shape of an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Georgia and will pro vide that all persons who are In default for as much as three years in the pay ment of taxes shall be disfranchised. The bill will provide for the estab lishment of a court in each county of the State, which court shall have the right and power to restore to any per son who has been disfranchised the right to vote upon his submitting proof to the tribunal to which he applies for the restoration of his right of suffrage that he possesses the following quali fications: 1. That he must show that he has been a resident and citizen of the State of Georgia for a period of twelve months next before hls application for the removal of his disabilities has been filed. 2. That he has also been a citizen of the county in which such applica tion has been made, for the space of twelve months. 3. That he has not been convicted of any crime, the punishment of which would subject him to imprisonment in the penitentiary, unless he has been pardoned. 4. That he is a person of good moral character. 5. That he has a fixed place of abode, and has had for twelve months in said county. 6. That he has been regularly em ployed during that time. 7. That he is either in possession of property sufficient far hls support, or he has by his labor earned a sufficient amount for his support during that time. 8. That he has paid all of his taxes. Mr. Hall will also propose an amendment to the registration laws of the State so as to make it a crime for any person to pay another’s taxes for the purpose of allowing such person lo register, and which will also make it a criminal offenso for the tax collector of any county to permit such person to pay another’s taxes for the purpose of placing his name upon tho registra tion list. Mr. Hall believes that a bill upon the above lines will forever secure white supremacy in Georgia and this bill will, within the Constitution of the United States, practically eliminate the negro vote in Georgia. The bill, Mr. Hall claims, will disfranchise that large element of ignorant negro' voters by law; and It will not permit the reg istrars or election managers to deter mine the qualifications of the voters at the time he offers to register or to vote. In connection with the above bill he will advocate the passage of a bill in troduced at the last session of the Leg islature by Mr. "Wooten, of Wilkes, which bill makes the payment of poll tax voluntary, and prohibits the col lection of the same by fi. fa. and levy upon the property of the taxpayer. He thinks this bill will again be introduced by Mr. Wooten, and if it should not be he will himself introduce It. It takes something more than a cas ual glance to get at the meat in this proposition, bqt upon close inspection and study It will be found that it has merit. The voluntary payment of poll taxes, we are told, was an idea ad vanced some years ago by Bob Toombs. At any rate, Mr. Hall’s suggestion will not be put aside by the sneers of those who want to cut through the Constitution of the United States to accomplish an end which may be ob tained without such a hazardous un dertaking. .hardest upon her. or shift l attempted to shift the blame - find ,r. escape coat.

North °r South, to put a finger on .- • y point in Ms record, front first «o l.isn. thru mny betray h blemish on the j.trr.c and fame cf her chosen tbleftiin. vinatlon a trade- and of murder a means of livelihood.” That these as sassinations and murders were wreaked on men with whom the Federation wax at war Is circumstantial evidence and perhaps moral—though not legal— proof of the sympathy and support if not connection <of the unions with them. If this connection and active agency of tho unions should be legally established it will prove a severe re flection on unionism unless unionism should positively and emphatically go on record as repudiating and disowning any voluntary connection with men who would In the name of honest labor make of "assassination a trade and of murder a menns of livelihood.” The traditional and Immemorial dignity and rectitude of labor is at stake. That Orchard and his associates and acces sories literally lived up to this descrip tion of their vocation can only be real ized—but will be realized—by any one who reads Orchard's unconsciously business-like method of setting forth hls exploits and the mechanical details and contrivances by which he brought about the sudden precipitation into eternity and destruction of individuals or numbers of them a3 the case might be. The featuro of De Foe’s great work of fiction is the ingenuity and de tail with which the shipwrecked hero, Robinson Crusoe, on his desolate and uninhabited island, sets to work to contrive ways and means of creating the comforts and Implements enjoyed by men in a state of society. Orchard apparently forgets himself in the ab sorbing pride and interest he takes in explaining the inventions and plans he pursued to entrap and bring down his human quarry. The result In respect to the amount of bloodshed and num ber of people that were killed or who escaped was a matter of entire indiffer ence, the concern being as to whether the plan as conceived worked out or missed fire. We have space only for one story in illustration of this re markable criminal’s manner of think ing and speaking. Of the fixing up of a bomb and blowing-up of Bradley, after having failed to poison him by putting strychnine in the milk loft at hls door Orchard said: “I took some pieces of thin board off a box and put ends—put one end in this bomb, this gas pipe—and filled it full of this powder and then put an end in the other end, a wooden end. I cut a hole out of the top of the pipe and bent the lead back and bored some holes through that with a knife and fastened a bottle of sulphuric acid into that and put some giant caps down into this hole in the powder, put some chloride of potash and sugar on to them and took a little screw eye and put Into the cork of the bottle, took a cord and fastened it onto Mr. Bradley’s door In the'morning, so that when” "Do you know the date on which you fastened this bomb on Bradley’s door?" “No, sir; I don’t remember the ex act date." “It was somewhere about the middle of November, 1904.” "Yes. Sir.” ‘iZtjjhier “How did you do it?” '■ ■ "1 took a little screw eye the night before and fastened it In the door where he .entered his residence close to the bottom, and I had this little cord and the screw fastened into the cork of the bottle with the acid In and took It the next morning and wrapped it up into a parcel and laid it up against this door and put the cork I had a loop already fixed in the cord nnd hooked it over this one I had in the door, so that when the door opened it would pul! this cork out of this bottle and let the acid on the caps and ex plode them. 7 laid a mat that was lay ing in front of the door over this bomb when I put it there and tb rowed a newspaper over the cord like." What time in the morning was this?” "It was somewhere about 8 o’clock, maybe a little after 8.” STICK TO THE RECORD. The Macon Telegraph never for gets nor forgives. It reminds its readers that Mr. Bryan "took up the free silver Issue where the Re publicans laid It down and rode it through two campaign after it was a dead issue.” Yet that was not quite as bad, after all, as Mr. Par ker incorporating a gold plank in the Democratic platform after the issue had been dropped four years later.—Griffin News. Oa tho contrary Bryan, who was on the platform committee, fought all night long, at St. Louis, and finally succeeded in defeating a simple plat form declaration to -the effect that the silver question was of the past. -There was no gold plank Incorporated in the Democratic platform. Parker simply declared that it must be understood, if he ran, that he was opposed to re opening that question. The Marietta Journal takes this view of it: The Macon Telegraph never for gets nor forgives. It reminds its readers that Mr. Bryan "took up the free silver issue where the Re publicans laid it down and rode it through two campaigns after it was a dead issue.” That’s as old as the day dreams of an opium smoker. Give us something new about Bryan. Our two critics do not agree. It would be difficult to give “sortie thing new about Bryan” unless we had new Bryan. His Government own ership of railroads scheme is not new. He voted for that proposition in 1892 when he voted for old Weaver. "What did you do after this was done?” "I took a street car and went down town.” ’ Do you know what the result was?” "When Mr. Bradley opened the door It blowed the front out of the house or shattered it all to pieces and blowed h:m out in the street somewhere.” Confederate reunion convention passed a resolution limiting the title of general to those who had borne It in the war between the States. Colonels can be turned out without stint, however, In the future as In the past. We are told S-iat the rain falls on the ; just and the unjust alike, but it takes a j Richard Croker to capture the English I derliy and a cool quarter of a million winnings to best. ' The "beef trust" says the pure food law Is responsible for the rise in the price of meat. It certainly cannot be charged with having correspond- I ingly improved the quality of the j Sna&t. THE. COTTON RUT, Noting the fact that on returning from a visit to the South after the war Horace Greeley said that "the only work he saw being done was by ne groes who were fighting grass to raise cotton to buy hay at the North,” the Charleston News and Courier declares: "We are going through the same motion today. More than forty- years after the close of war and after the emancipation of the negro nearly every pound of hay sold in this market is raised in the North and West. It is worth from $25 to J2S a ton. ‘Better hay can be grown ■n our owe lands and sold at a fair profit at half the price. Yet we are so lazy, or indifferent, or incompe tent that we persist in following the example of the old-timers who appear to have had a rooted aver sion to the cultivation of every crop except the cotton crop.” i I lf our Charleston contemporary means to speak for the South as a i whole, its language is exaggerated. It j Is true, however, that throughout this j section the hay crop is much too small, I j and rw> doubt in many parts of the j Southern States it is neglected almost ! Altogether. TARIFF INIQUITIES. our time Democrats are by no means the only critics of the exces sive tariff schedules. There are honest believers in protection as a means of encouraging industries who repudiate a system of special privileges by which monopolies are built up under Govern ment sanction. The position of the honest protectionist is made very clear in an article in the North American Review on "National Tendencies and the Constitution” by Mr. William iB. Rowe, who says: “The greatest source of discontent, even among the majority of our citi zens who believe thoroughly in the principle and system of protection, is the exsiting tariff. Their com plaint is a just one, for. where protection for several important industries long ago ceased to he necessary, there have been built up in the name of the protective tariff, special privileges on which great capi talists have fattened, under the very* eyes, and at the sore expense, of our citizens as domestic consumers. When, in the ordinary course of business, and as a matter of daily routine, the domes tic manufacturer regularly sells his pro duct In foreign markets for a sum sub stantially less than his price to the home consumer, under similar circum stances and conditions, in order to maintain the high-tariff price in the home markets, originally established and acquiesced in a generation ago for the benefit of infant industries, it is high time that something be done, since the difference between these prices, plus freight and other items, represents the voluntary contributions of our cit izens to the already overgrown surplus capital of the manufacturer. That method of using wealth has become an abuse which the American electorate, now well informed on the situation, will no longer tolerate. Let the pro tective tariff, as a system, stand, by all means: but let the Republican par ty remove these abuses. Let an end be made of these shocking special priv ileges, which are p'ainly. day by day, adding to the wealth of tho few. The people are watching and waiting. If one agency refuses to act, another will be made to act.” This is only one of many signs that Republicans as well as Democrats are under the present iniquitous system. The opportunity to make tariff reform a paying issue is more inviting than it has been for years, but unfortunately Bryan, who is the party’s dictator, doesn’t seem to be able to warm up except in connection with the policies already advocated by Roosevelt, thus convincing the independent voters that no change of administration Is neces sary. Caught on the Wing By JOHN T. BOIFEUILLET. * If from that realm where the rain- how never fades the soul of Sidney Lanier looked down upon the banquet scene last Thursday evening in At lanta—on the occasion of the celebra tion In honor of Governor Terrell—it no doubt rejoiced to witness the up lifting and impressive effect made upon all present by Dr. John E. White’s beautiful and touching recita tion of the "Song of the Chattahoo chee.” It may be remarked in pass ing that water was the only beverage sponding to tho sentiment. "The sponding to t he ' sentiment. "The Southern Gentleman.” Dr. White stat ed that the last time he attended a banquet in the room where he then was an out of town guest, on drinking a glass of water, asked him. "Where do you get your water supply?" Dr. White replied. “From the Chattahoo chee river." Whereupon the guest ex claimed: "Then give me another glass of it, for it is my consecration water!” As If to further consecrate the water of the stream that rises in the spring near Unicoi gap and, danc ing down the mountain side, rambles in virgin purity and grace from the bosom of the lovely Nacoocbee, the queen of glens, thence "Out of the hills of Habersham. Down the valleys of Hall.” Dr. White recited Lanier's exquisite lyric in accents so tender that the chords Of every heart were touched. The melodious tones of his voice were in perfect harmony with the music that flows with the "Song of the Chat tahoochee.” A death like silence per- 4-aded the large banquet hall as these words fell,, soft as the fleece of de scending snows, from the lips of the holy man of God: MACON TROUNCES HAUGHTY JAYS BY TAKING WHIRLWIND CONTEST Locals Drove Jack Lee to the Woods iu Fifth Fred Wohlleben Rapped Home-Run "All down the hills of Habersham, All through the valleys of Hall, The rushes cried Abide, abide. The willful waterweeds held me .thrall. The laving laurel turned my tide, Tho ferns and the fondling grass said Staj', The dewberrs’ dipped for to work delas’. And the little reeds sighed Abide, abide. Here in the hills of Habersham, Here in the valleys of Hail.” "Abide, abide.” were spoken with great tenderness—being a true echo of the earnestness and pathos of the ap peal of "the rushes” and “the little reeds.” With rapt attention the ban queters followed him through the song, and under the magical melody of his voice they could see the Chattahoochee dashing over the rocks and wearin away their rough surfaces "until the hidden jewels show the bright side of the harriers overcome.” . "And oft in the hills of Habersham. And oft in the valleys of Hall. The white quartz shone, and the smooth brook-stone Did bar me of passage with friendly brawl, And many a luminous Jewel lone —Crystals clear or a—cloud with mist. Ruby, garnet and amethyst— Made lures with the lights of stream ing stone In the clefts of the hills of Haber sham. In the beds of the valleys of Hall.” The eyes of all were fixed in steady gaze upon the speaker as he com menced the last verse: "But oh. not the hills of Habersham, And oh, not the valleys of Hall Avail: I am fain for to water the plain. Downward the voices of Duty call— Downdard. to toil and be mixed with the main, The dry fields burn, and the mills are to turn, And a myriad flowers mortally yearn. And the lordly main from beyond the plain • . - Calls o’er the hills of Habersham, Calls through the valleys of Hall.” As Dr. White concluded the lines -he raised a glass of Chattahoochee water to his lips, and proposed that the three hundred banqueters rise and drink to the health and happiness of Georgia’s Governor. AH were instantly upon their feet, .and with smiles and gladness responded to Dr, White’s sug gestion. Sidney Lanier, the singer, is dead, but the "Song of the Chattahoochee” may never die. "Out of the hills of Habersham, Down the valleys of Hall, I hurry amain to reach the plain, Run the rapid and leap the fall, Split at the rock and together again, Accept my bed. or narrow or wide. And flee from folly on every side With a lover’s pain to attain the plain Far from the hills of Habersham, Far from the valleys of Hall.” Macon 4, Jacksonville 3, Yesterday’s game was copped by the locals after a strenous fighl by the opposing team. From the lime that Evans flew out to Houston in the first Inning until Schan. the last man up in the ninth, fouled out to Llpe. the game was in doubt and r.ot until then did either team let up their going. Both teams proved its. ability to stick In the pinches and though sev eral times it seemed as If one team would do a stunt, just as many times fine plays cut off their chances. Quinn was on the firing line for the locals and though he pitched well for three innings, things became so uncer tain that Harley was substituted to make sure the contest. Macon began scoring In the first round when Murdoch waited for four bad ones, was sacrificed to second by Lipe. went to third on Houston’s out. Evans to Mullaney. and crossed the plate when George Stinson landed on the ball for a clean hit over short. In the third Quinn had a brief Inter val of uncertainty, tjut the Scouts took advantage of this and wont the locals one better. Schan was hit by a pitch ed ball. Lee bunted to Quinn and Schan was thrown out at second. Evans struck out, Bierkotte waited for a free pass, Viola did likewise, and Mullaney drew his second hit, scoring Lee and Bierkotte. Viola being thrown out at third by Murdoch. In the fourth, however, the locals tied the score when "Big” Fred Wohlleben lifted one over left field fence which allowed him to go the en tire four bases without stopping. Fepe followed with a hit. but Harnish struck out. Quinn grounded to short and Bierkotte made it a double. So far so good, but that wasn’t all. In the next inning the locals cinched the score when they tallied twice. In this inning Murdoch led off with a single past short, was again sacri ficed to second by Llpe. and trotted home on Houston's three bagger to center field. Stinson was out pitcher to first, but Evans miseued on Rho- ton’s grounder and Houston came home. In the sixth the last run was scored when Lewis singled, and wait ed for Burt td hft, and then went ail the way round the bases, when "Danny” drew a two bagger.

William Crozier has shown by experiment that guns can be cleaned in from one to three minutes and even in the dark, thus disposing of the plea'that the clean guns of the negroes proved their innocence. In- I spector General Garlington testifies I that the negroes cast suspicion on | themselves by becoming "wooden- J faced” and silent as soon as an inves- j tlgatlon was begun. Another civilian to swear to actually seeing the negroes ‘ during the shooting is Mrs. Emma , j Leahy, manager of the Leahy House at j : Brownsville. She says she counted : sixteen negro soldiers and saw two cf I I them very plainly, one black and the ! ; other a "yellow nigger with spots on j ! his face." I ' i William J.

Governor Hughes led the New York stnimal to water and actually made .Aim drink. The Haywood trial now in progress at Boise.
