BROUGHTON HEARD
BY GREAT CROWD.
Jones Was Also a Drawing Card In
Atlanta.
Atlanta, Nov. 13.—Over 5,000 people
crowded the Baptist Tabernacle this
morning to hear Dr. Len G. Brough
ton preach his first sermon since his
return front London. There was noth
ing sensational about it. Many of the
congregation remained from morning
until afternoon, eating their lunches in
the church so as to be assured of good
seats.
Several thousand persons Were turn
ed away at the afternoon meeting, at
which Rev. Sam P. Jones also spoke.
The feature of the afternoon meeting
was Mr. Jones, “roast” of the Demo
cratic party and his praise of Roose
velt. lie passed over the President's
negro policy with' a* laugh and sap}
he considered him a pretty good man.
Many found fault with him, he said,
because he w as impetuous and inclined
to war. but otherwise he thought the
country in pretty safe hands.
Mr. Jones said he had seen but one
man who admitted he was a Democrat
since the election, and, “he was a
blank fool.” “Now don’t yoq go away
and say I am a Republican, for I am
not," said Mr. Jones In conclusion.

London, Nov. 13. —Foreign Minister

The American market, after a sharp

TELEGRAPHIC SYSTEM
OPERATED IN ALASKA.
Ge. firefly Makes Hla Report Ipou
Ills Corps’ Work.
Washington, Nov. 13.—Gen. A. W.
Greely, chief signal officer of the
United States army, in his annual re
port gives an interesting account of
the work performed by his corps in
establishing an all-American tele
graphic system In Alaska, saying the
undertaking is unique in the annals
of telegraphic engineering. The cables
used in the Alaskan system would
reach from Newfoundland to Ireland
and the land lines from Washington
to Texas, there being 2,079 miles of
cable and 1,439 miles - of land lines and
JOt miles of wireless lines-
Gen. Greely says the United States
has brought Southeaster.-. Alaska, the
Yukon valley and the Sehrlug straits
region Into telegraphic communication
with the rest of the civilised world.
Gen. Greely says that after thorough
consideration he decided to Install ma
terial of American manufacture to be
operated by American soldiers and to
be laid by American ships, except
some cable Instruments and machin
ery. A selected force of men has been
so trained that to-day the signal corps
of the army is competent to operate
in wqr emergencies a submarine cable
of any length.
“Repairs in Alaska are maintained,”
ithe report says, “by parties stationed
at log cabins about torty miles apart,
one signal corps repairman with two
assistants from the line of the army
and a dog team being at each cabin.
The men meet the terrible condition of
hardship ’and privation uncomplaining
ly and with a fortitude worthy of the
American soldier,"
The report says the Nome wireless
station has daily and uninterruptedly
transmitted tbs entire telegraphic busi
ness of the seaward peninsula, 5,000
words being exchanged in one after
noon between Safety harbor and St.
Michael. The signal corps of 'the army,
Gen. Greely says, is now regularly
operating the longest wireless section
of any commercial telegraph system
in the world.
Speaking of the Philippines, he says
the sixteen most important islands of
the archipelago are now connected by
liable, which lines, arc recognized as
indispensable both by the military and
civil authorities. During the year
there was collected and deposited in
the insular treasury of the Philippines
telegraph line receipts to the amount of
*58,675, there having been sent includ
ing government business all told, more
than 2,000,000 messages, the net ex
pense being *325,901.
It is strongly urged in the report that
steps be taken by the United States
to adhare to the international tele
graph union and that international
regulations to govern wireless tele
graphy in time of war be adopted.

and burglarizing Dr. Smith’s drug
store by Berry George are under ar
rest and wifi have a commitment trial

FORT SCREVEN TEAM WAS
DEFEATED BY THE JAYS
• ______________ *
17 to 0 Was the Score That Was Made Upon the
Jachsonville Gridiron-
Jacksonville. Fla,. Nov. 13.—Fort
Screven failed to score against Jack
sonville this afternoon in one of the
hardest fought contests seen here on
the gridiron this season.
The artillerists were strong, but they
appeared to lack a knowledge of the
flng points of the game. They were
good in their center rushes and worked
well tr. a Scrimmage, but were r.ot fast,
and their defensive work, with the ex
ception of their center, was defective.
Seventeen to 0 was the score. If the
visitors had beer, allowed three min
utes more ir. the seeo.-.d half they
would without doubt have scored a
touchdown, for they were making for
Jacksonville’s goal with a vengeance,
and the Jays had nearly all their
substitutes playing in that half.
The soldiers kicked off. and Yancey
caught the ball on the fifteen-yard
line; He advanced it to the thirty
yard line and followed with an ad
vance ©f twenty yards around left end-
OFFICERS ARE NEEDED
FOR ORDNANCE DUTY.
Naval Gan Factory at Washington
!■ Overtaxed.
Washington, Nov. 18.—Lack of of
ficers for ordnance duty and the over
taxing of the naval gun factory at
Washington continue to be the most
serious problems facing the Bureau of
Ordnance, according to the annual re
port of Rear Admit’al Newton E. Ma
son, chief of ordnance, Just approved
by Secretary Morton. The report sayp
a plan for reorganization of the work
of the bureau will be submitted later
with a view to Increasing the supply
of ordnance experts. Of the rush of
work at the naVal gun factory Admiral
Mason says:
“The naval gun factory has been
running night and day at full capacity,
'and although good progress has been
made, the congested condition of all
work there gives assurance that its
capacity is being overtaxed and must,
unless this capacity Is materially In
creased, eventually result in failure to
supply the ordnance outfits of ships in
time to meet the demands of the con
ti’actors.’’
A vast amount of work has also
•been done by the gun factory in alte
rations and repairs to ordnance mate
rial. Estimates for the improvement
of the gun factory and increase of the
plant are renewed.
Smokeless powder has received con
siderable attention by the bureau in
the last year. The report says the
normal output of private powder fac
tories and of the government factories
at Indian Head and Newport is not
greater than is required to meet the
demands of the service target practice
and fill the outfits of the newly com
missioned shiDs.
The delivery of armor during the
year and the manufacture of armor
has progressed in a satisfactory man
ner. There have been recently some
delays to ship contractors caused by
the non-delivery of armor, but the
opinion is expressed that this was due,
not to belated armor delivery, but to
unusually rapid ship construction. To
obviats the recurrence of this, a re,
assignment of armor contracts has
been made by the bureau. During the
year 14,848.80 tons of armor have been
delivered.
Projectiles have recently caused
the bureau difficulty, gome of them
falling to meet the severe ballistic
tests required.
Experiments recently have been
made to develop a special design of
telephone for use in communioating
throughout the ship while in action.

AND HIS WORKS.

almost entirely boxed the compass in
political profession of faith. It his
been for pretty much everything until
this year, when it stood for everything
or nothing, according to the interpreta
tion which the voter chose to put upon
its ambiguous platform,
“Mr. Bryan, while a great Democrat,
is net the Democratic party. There
are other distinguished Democrats who
are yet to be heard from and they
may net indorse such a Populist plat
form. There is John Slfarp Williams
of Mississippi, there is Joseph W. Bail
ey of Texas, there Is Senator Tillman
of South Carolina, there is Senator
Morgan of Alabama, there is Senator
Daniel of Virginia—ln fact, there are
quite a number of distinguished Demo
crats whd may claim the right to put
in a word before th# next national plat
form is ipade. They may not be will
ing to take, for instance, Mr. Bryan's
forty-seven different systems of gov
erning railroads; they may not be In
favor of some other planks In his plat
form. Be that as it may, Mr. Bryan
has no more right at the present time
to say what the Democratic platform
shall be In 1998 than any other distin
guished Democrat.
Committed for Poor Year*.
For the next four years the Demo
cratic creed must remain what the
St. I.onls convention of 1904 made it,
and the machinery of the party must
remain in the hands of the men who
now hold It. The air still rings with
the eloquence with which Mr. Bryan
indorsed the Candidate of the SJ. Louie
convention. Spoke of him as the Moses
of Demcgtracy. spoke of Parker’s Ideals
as his own ideals and proclaimed the
"sincerity” with which he was advo
cating both the platform and the nom
inee of 1904. Mr. Bryan himself will
remain for four years as much bound
by the action f the St. Louis con
vention as when he made his whirlwind
trip through Indiana. If the action
at the convention bound him then, It
binds him now. The election did not
release him. He can only be releas
ed by another national convention and
ti/.il national convention will not meet
till 1998. Therefore, when Mr Bryan
cuts lunge from a platform which he
go recently asked the people to indorse
|n behalf of Judge Parker, he tak*s a
position which is that of Bryan, the
Individual, und which cannot bind any
other Democrat whatsoever. For four
years the Dvmocnitlp party has got
to stand by the action of the fit. L*uls
Convention, whether they wlah to do so
or not. What they did there Is offi
cial und binding. Mr. Brysyi himself
gave it his sanction.

In the second half tho soldiers got

their quarterback lost it to Yancey on

get the national Democratic party to
adopt the Populist programme which
he has Just formulated. The Demo
cratic party never did do it, and the
presumption is that it never will. The
plutocratic element has just as much
power within the party now as it had
when the St. Louis convention met.
Indeed, it has more. It has all the
machinery now which the Bryan men
had then; it has the same control aver
the newspapers which it then had;
therefore, R is as certain as anything
can be that they will be able to again
defeat Mr. Bryan in the national con
vention when he comes before it with
his platform. Suppose, however, that
he should be victorious over them in
the national convention. Can they not
knife him Just as successfully as they
did in 1896? Is R not absolutely cer
tain that they are Just as much joined
to their idols now as they were then?
Will not they be as desperate and un
scrupulous in knifing their own ticket
ns they were in 1896? Every argument
based upon human nature says that
they will. Then, even If Mr. Bryan
should win the nomination of his Pop
ulist platform in 1908, the plutocratic
element in his ewn party will bar his
progress and encompass his defeat as
they did before.
“Again, suppose that the plutocratic
elements should triumph over Mr.
Bryan In 1908 as they did in 1904, what
then? Mr. Bryan will have to submit
Just as he did submit In 1904, after
having declared publicly and positively
that he woffld never support a gold
standard nominee of the Democratic
party. Mr. Bryan could not bolt In 1908.
The time to have done that was in
1904. That opportunity will not return.
He himself has aet the example of
submitting to what was wrong, be
cause. although it was wrong. It was
regular.
It I* Plutocracy Against Bryan,
“In short the Democratic party has
this hopeless situation. The Bryanites
cannot drive out the plutocratic Re
in ent, the plutocratic element cannot
drive out Mr. Bryan. They exhaust
their strength with internal struggles,
leaving the jfarty where its enemies
can always defeat It at the polls.
“There is no further weakness in the
position of Mr. Bryan. The plutoeratle
element haa shown that it can dAfely
defy him and combat him, although he
is the nominee, whereas ho submits to
them when they put up a plutocratic
nominee. From a party so hopelessly
divided, it Is the rankest folly, in my
Judgment, to expert any reforms.
From year to year it is a dreViry go
round and round of one faction fighting
another faction, each of which alter
nately whips the other and neither of
which whips the enemy.
“I should be only too glad to co-opera
te in parallel lines and honorable
terms with any Jeffersonian Demo
crat like Mr. Bryan or Mr. Hearst, or
George Fred Williams to accomplish
a purpose which is common to us all,
but I believe that the best way to as
sure the final success of the reform
movement is for us to build up a party
of Jeffersonian Democracy and solid
foundations where unity of sentiment
goes hand In hand with unity of
purpose, and where, therefore, some
hope of accomplishing that which we
wish to accomplish can be reasonably
entertained.
Conditions In the Sooth.
“In the South there are peculiar rea
sons why the present policy of the
Democratic leaders should be defeated
and a better line adopted. For the
twenty-five or thirty years the Demo
cratic machine politicians have made
that great section a mere tool In the
hands of Wall street and a handful
of Eastern Democrats wfio have no
purpose in common with us and who
use the electoral vote of the solid
South for their own selfish purposes.
In this manner our Southern country,
which is an empire itself, has been
made a province for a few great finan
cial magnates who exploit for their
private gain without the slightest ref
erence to the welfare of the Southern
people.
"The situation is pitiable. The de
gradation of It finds expression in tho
phrase, ‘The solid South would vote
for a yellow dog on the Democratic
ticket.’ Asa Southern inan, I am
ashamed of such a state of affairs
and resent it profoundly. If I can
do anything toward accomplishing the
political Independence of my own peo
ple from this slavish servitude to a
handful of Wall street politicians, I
consider It a duty to do so. If the
People’s party had no other mission
than to relax the grasp which the great
railroad corporations have upon the
throat of the Southern States, ’a grasp
which is maintained by the alliance
between the Democratic bosses and
the Wall street financial kings, then
it would have sufficient mission to war
rant its continued existence.
Georg l Is tier Their Thumb.
“My own state of Georgia is as com
pletely under the thumb of Morgan
and Belmont, one of whom controls the
Southern Railroad combine, the other
Of w*hom controls the Louisville and
Nashville combine, as the state of
Pennsylvania is under the control of
the Pennsylvania Railroad or the state
of Wisconsin under the control of
which LaFollette has won national
fame Ui combatting.
The situation Is simply appalling and
would not be believed by anybody who
was not conversant with the facts.
I expect to return home and open a
campaign on the lines of Jeffersonian
Democracy (o take our state govern
ment out of the control of Morgan and
Belmont and to put It in the control
of the Georgia people, where It be
