Defends Payne Tariff Law as
Maker of Prosperity—Tariff
Revision Promised.
XEW YORK, Sept. 27.—A warning
that the control of trusts through Fed
eral incorporation and regulation would
create a monstrous monopoly of power
which, in the grasp of an unprincipled
man. could be used to perpetuate his
authority and make him a dictator who
might be overthrown only by a revo
lution is sounded by President Taft tn
an interview printed in' an evening pa
per (The World) here.
Discussing this phase of the Progres
sive platform, the president is quoted
a? saying:
It would create the most monstrous
monopoly of power in the history of the
world' a power as much greater, as
much more autocratic, than that of a
Caesar or a Napolebn, as the business
interests of the twentieth century are
greater. more dominant and far
reaching than were those two thou
fan<: or a. hundred years ago. An un
principled man with such power in his
grasp ould perpetuate his authority,
i-r )•“ under legitimate forms, and
b, .. nr a dictator until his hold could
h si. loose only by revolution."

itemised a reduction on a scientific

The president stated that the policy

American manufactures and to keep the

Defends Payne Law Again.
As tn the Payne tariff law, the presi
dent says:
The Pagne law- haa no more to do
Mth advaarcing the coat of living than
the latent Atlantic cable tariff. On the
ontrary. it ha-s enabled the American
woriter to meet the cost of living and
maintain his family in comfort. Under
the operation of that law. prosperity
has been gradually restored since the
panic ,f 1.90’7. Practically every able
bodied man who is willing to work has

trial centers, as well as in other parts
of the country, the demand for la-borers

have been thronged tvtth buyers from
all sections of the Union, who report
ready sales and empty shelves. Farm
ers were never better' off. Every le
gitimate industry !• looking forward to
tuiil greater prosperty, provided the na
tion’s progress shall not be halted by
the benumbing glacier of free trade or
the destructive lava stream of an

The president, after intimating that
he would call an extra session of con
sress for tariff revision, was asked:
Do you mean to say, Mr. President,
thut you will call an extra session to
revise the tariff?” The president re
plied:
My statement is sufficiently ex

The president declared that woman's
suffrage is an issue to be decided by
states, and concluded with the dec

Col. Perry s Neu) Uniform Arrives in Nine Boxes
10 POUNDS OF GOLD LACE
Lieutenant Colonel Jesse Perry, pri

His new uniform came,this morning,
both full dress and fatigue, along with
his sword, and his pistol, and about ten
pounds of gold lace.
Leonard, the capltol porter of colored
persuasion, grabbed the various pack
ages away from the expressman before
that party was well inside the building
and bore them in triumph to the gov

Perry was dispensing hospitality, pend

home in Marietta.
Colonel Perry's uniform baffles de

HOW TO FEED BABIES
Never give a child any meat. It
makes him blood-thirsty. Vegeta
bles. as a diet, improve the mind.—
T)r. David Allyn Gorton.
My little son has eaten meat since
he .as four months old. He’s gentle,
happy and healthy,—Mrs Flora Dud
enhoeffer.
New York. sept. 27. —“i would not
feed children meat unjess I wished to
breed a race of fighiers and blood-thirsty
men.”
That is what Dr. David Allyn Gorton,
the expert in eugenics and octogenarian
father of the famous Gorton twins, said,
but. fat and rosy and gay. Douglass Dan
iel Dudenhoeffer. the meat-eating baby,
continues to offer a refutation of the doc
tor’s theory. Daniel is the gentlest and
mildest of infants, and if he is to become
blood-thirsty later on he hasn't shown
any signs of it yet
Daniel began eating meat at the lender
age of four months- which was probably
less than the ago of the untender meal,
since Daniel dwells in Xew York 993 East
onn hundred and sixty-seventh street.
After Dr. Gorton’s twins had been in
terviewed and found to bp the most resil
iently “bouncing’’ youngsters imaginable, l
Daniel consented to receive a reporter.
Has It “On” Gorton Twins.
It’s a dangerous thing to meddle with
rival Henries about bringing up chil
dren. You are likely to get hit by Science
and by their mothers at the same time.
But It has to be confessed that young
Dudenhoeffer. the “meat eater,” seemed
to “have something on” the Gorton twins
Os course, Iran's a year old and the
twins were born last May, but hp weighs
45 pounds and they only about a dozen
pounds each.
All of them arp the grandest speci
mens of baby, however, and the race of

T. R. APPEALS TO,
ISOOMWF(
Other Party Platform Offers No'
Advantage to Producer. He
Tells Louisianans.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 27.—1 n this
rigidly Democratic state Colonel
Roosevelt today made tn appeal to
the Democrats to support the Progres
sive part). The ex-president assailed
the Denioetatic bouse for its recent at
tempt to temove the tariff on sugar.
The New Orleans address of Colonel
Roosevelt, coming after his long Jump
from Jackson. Miss., is realty the first
(elaborate expression of his reason for
i asking Democratic support in the
South. He made his appeal on the
ground that neither the Repuoliean nor
the Democratic part) lias a tariff plat
i form that i iomisi s anything advan
| tageous to the producer. Th; colonel
took the ground that ft is time the
I South broke away from the old theory
that, right or wrong, it must adhere
to the Democratic pari). He argued
that the South, by joining the Pro
gressive party, would make the first
step in asserting itself in the affairs of
the nation at large.
Last night Co'onel Roosevelt passed
through Mississippi. He holfls no false
hopes that that slate may be changed
iln a short campaign, but lie does have
i prospect s in Tennessee, w hil* 1 Louisiana
is rated as a state where Progressive

New Orleans shortly before noon today.
He was given, a cordial reception in

chose the former.

There is nothing new about the idea
of using Sage (for restoring the color
of the hair. Our grandmothers kept
their hair dark, glossy and abundant
by the use of a simple "Sage Tea."
Whenever their hair fell out or took
on a dull, faded or streaked appearance,

applied It to their hair with wonderful

Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gath

This is done by skillful chemists better
than we could do it ourselves, and all
we have to do is to call for the ready

Barry Wright, of Floyd, former mem
ber of the house of representatives and
Democratic nominee for membership tn
the nevt, is an Atlanta visitor today.
Mr. Wright is at oreaent engaged in
the practice of law in Rome, with his
distinguished father. Seaborn Wrtght.
The younger Wright Is an ardent sup
porter, of Woodrow Wilson and haa
made several speeches in hie behalf.
Tite senior member of the firm Is also
a Wilson man. but <ne is possessed of
many repressed Bull Moose sentiments
that threaten to break loose now and;
then, regardless.
Young Mr. Wright says he ho pee,
however, to keep his father perfectly
regular and shouting for Wilson, he
sternly frowning down any suspected
inclination upon his part to oome to Jlt-e
lanta tomorrow night and hear the
colonel orate to the multitude.
Governor Joseph M. Brown is fond
of young people, and lends usually a
most willing ear to their petitions.
He does not suspect that all the wis
dom of the ages is tucked snugly be
neath either bald heads or heads hoary
with age.
Particularly is the governor inclined
to view with satisfaction the ancient
and honorable institution of matrimony,
fashioned in the days of man's Inno
cency. and perfected for the uplift and
betterment of the world.
The governor, as a man. doubUesi*
would be only too glad to further Irree's
young dream, now being indulged In by
a suitor for the hand of Thomas EMgae
Stripling’s daughter. But he likely will
not be able to help it along, if the only
way he can do It is by pardoning Strip
ling
The governor thinks that by and by,
pet haps, a further petition for Strip
ling’s pardon might be in order. Now.
however, be can see no reason to change
the opinion he formed when the case
came before him origtnalßs'—and opin
ion reached after long, careful, dis
criminating and exhaustive Investiga
tion and consideration
The letter from Youngblood to the
governor, in which Stripling's pardon
was sought, preciptwsted a deluge of
mall in the executive office—largely
from people of a sentimental turn of
mind, who saw in Youngblood’s letter a
note of pathos and genuine human in
terest that appealed tremendously.
