Roland Ellis is the leal host of tiie Georgia state Democratic convention today, albeit Macon claims collectively the honor. Roland was walloped seventeen ways from Sunday in the solicitor’s race in the Macon judicial circuit by Judge John Ross the other day. but it has serx ed to ruffle the Ellis < ■hestertleldian exterior not at all. Ellis meets them all in the lobby of the Lanier, extends the glad hand, pro duces courtesy cards to all the near by clubs and soda water emporiums, and for those few who metaion his Lite catastrophe he has a smile Biat is child like and bland. Macon is genuinely glad to have the state convention in its midst. It has turned the keys of the city which is the way all reporters put il, cub or otherwise over to the deb gates, and the game will be played with Ma con taking sides with nobody in par ticular. Hatdy i'lm is the matinee hero of the convention. Not that he looks the part so much, but that he has a reputation as politi cal manager that is the envy of every body. And the curious part of it all is that, while everybody knows i'lm, few ever have seen him. It was noised around soon after I'lm arrived that he was in town, and imme diately the populace seized upon I'lm as the big sight of the big show, I'lm has not had greatness thrust upon him, perhaps, but he certainly has had its double-first cousin, pleasant no toriety shoved his way in bunches.

M< Gregor, of Warren coun ty who was nominated in the primary last WedneMlay for state senator from the Nineieenth rltstriet, comprised of Greene. Taliaferro and Warren coun ties. is somewhat exorcised over a ru mor that an effort w ill be made at .the district convention, to be held at Craw - fordville. on September 4.- to refuse to ratify his nomination because he op posed Thomas }V. Hardwick, of Wash ington count' . for congress from the Tenth district. While the move is not gaining any amount of favoit in this county, it is possible that a fight will be made in tin convention. In such a case, each county has two votes, and Greene and Taliaferro could control the nomina tion.

HILLES By CHARLES D. HILLES. Chairman of the Republican National Committee. NEW YORK. Aug. 2S. —"Thou Shalt not bea- fal=e witness against thy neighbor." This is one of the Ten Com mandments. The necessity for announc ing this once well known fact grows out of the obvious purpose of a cer tain new political party so strenuously to iterate and reiterate the eighth com mandment. "Thou shalt not steal,” as to obscure the fact that there are nine others, and even to create the impres sion that the bearing of false witness is not a fault but a virtue when com mitted by.Third Term party leaders. But there are those who regard viola tion of the ninth as even more culpa ble than violation of the eighth, as is exemplified by Shakespeare's reference to the theft of a good name. Foundation of New Party. The Third Term party is founded on violations of the ninth commandment, and jts even partial success is wholly dependent on the ability of its leaders to gain believers to its “false witness." Its promoters frotp the time of its con ception have had as their entire stock in trade the misrepresentation of Pres ident Taft and his administration, and have never hesitated to bear false wit ness against him. Even the iteration of the eighth commandment is made apropos only by violation of the ninth. The only occasion for shouting "Thou shalt not steal" is the false testimony < f the Third Termers regarding the set tlement of the contests in the Republi can convention. The Third Term candidate and his sycophantic satellites have never miss ed an opportunity to bear false witness against President Taft. They began with misrepresenting his attitude to ivard conservation. They have followed it with misrepresentation of his atti tude toward the tariff, toward railway rate legislation, toward the trusts, to ward the bosses, toward monetary leg islation. toward Canadian reciprocity, and, indeed, toward every public policy with which President Taft has had to deal. Kellogg Quoted in Proof. One of the latest and most striking evidences of its misrepresentation is afforded by the Third Term candidate's reiterated declarations regarding Pres ident Taft's prosecution of the trusts under the Sherman law. "We broke up the railroad combina tion in the Northern Securities case, and there is no parallel between it and the Standard Oil case, and Mr. Wicker sham knows it perfectly well," and again, "The policy which received its highest expression in the final action, taken w ith Mr. Wickersham's approval, in the tobacco and Standard Oil cases .is one of make-believe strangling. It is preposterous from every point of view." Mr. Roosevelt has said, and yet when he said that he knew that Frank I B. Kellogg, his chief supporter on the I Republican national committee, the most competent lawyer in the Bull Moose party today and the man whom he selected to conduct the prosecution of the Northern Securities Company, had written, in The Review of Reviews of June. 1912, of the Standard Oil de cision, that' it "accomplished every thing that it is possible to accomplish under the Sherman act." and that "the decree went further than any decision has ever gone in any court under the Sherman act." T. R. Avoids After-Story. Again. Mr. Roosevelt has repeatedly pointed to the fact that after final de cision in the Standard Oil ease the price of its securities advanced—that is. the securities of the various companies which had been in the trust—and on this fact has based his assertion that the trust policy of the Taft administra tion "benefits the big crooked business concerns." But all the time Mr. Roose velt has sedulously avoided any refer ence to the fact that following his breaking up of the Northern Securities combination the Union Pacific sold the Northern Pacific stocks it had been compelled to take hack at a profit of sfi3. uno. non. while the shares of the Great Northern, which had also been in the trust, also advanced rapidly in value. When it comes to stealing the good name of a former friend and a po- litical opponent, the commandment, "Thou shlat not steal,” evidently has no force with the third term candidate. Good and Bad Trusts. Senator LaFollette. who is not a par. tisan supporter of President Taft, told the senate, on August 16, that "on the day that Theodore Roosevelt was made president of the United States there were 149 trustsand combinations in the United States. When he turned the government over to William H. Taft there were 10.020 great trusts and com binations." Ajid he might truthfully have added that during the administra tion of President Taft not one great trust' has been formed. When asked which of the 10.000 trusts were "good trusts," Mr. LaFollette replied: "1 have no way to differentiate, be cause none of the trusts are my friends. If any of them were supporting my propaganda, I suppose I would be hu man enough to call them good trusts.’ I have no George W. Perkins and no Munsey supporting me.” Why were so many trusts organized during the Roosevelt administration? Read the answer in the immunity from prosecution which President Roosevelt granted to the "good trusts." owned in a large part and operated in large part by his ft iend, George W. Perkins. The third term candidate is basing his whole hope for success on his abili ty to deceive the American people re garding the facts. Can he get away with it?
