Formal Statement by Colonel
Notes “Great Achievement*'
of New Party.
NEW YORK, Nov. 12 The first
comment on the recent election by
. Colonel Roosevelt, one of the defeated
candidates, was made in a formal state
ment tn which he says that the "battle
has just begun." the new pa-ty has
come to stay, and that its achievement
In the election is unparalleled
Colonel Roosevelt, in his statement,
said:
' - “I congratulate the Progressives of
" the country—that is, I congratulate
’■ those good men and women who. with
sinceritj of purpose for the common
good, have had the vision to look into
- the coming years, and see what the
future demands from us.
r “What the Progressive party has
done since the theft of the Republican
organization by the Republican bosses
at Chicago last June, Is literally un
paralleled in the history of free gov
ernment. worked under representative
Institutions
Opposed By Great Odds.
"Three months have gone by since
the new Progressive party was founded.
Without much money, without any or
ganization, against the wealth of the
country, against the entire organized
political ability of the country, against
the bitter hostility of 90 per cent of the
press of the country, against the furious
opposition of every upholder of special
privileges, whether in politics or in
business, and with the channels of in
formation to the public largely choked
the Progressive party has polled be- j
tween ♦,000,000 am! 4,500.000 votes; has i
hopelessly beaten one of the old par
ties, both in the electoral college and
in the popular vote; has taken second
place In the nation and either first or
second place in some 37 of the 48 states.
"No taks In any way approaching
this has ever before been performed by
any party In our country. Such a feat, ;
performed by volunteers hastily brought |
together, and without any previous co
operation with each other, against the
trained veterans of the political arena—
these trained veterans, including the
entire mercenary forces of politics—
should be a source of pride, not only to
those who performed the task, but to
al! believers in good citizenship and
In the capacity of Americans for self
government.
"Party Here to Stay."
"During the campaign I said repeat
edly that this was in no sha|*e or way a
one-man movement, but a movement
foi great principles -a movement which
has sprung, as all healthy movements
in our democracy must spring, from the
heart and conscience of the people
themselves. This truth must be kept
steadily before the minds of all of us.
The Progressive jiarty has com to stay.
I If either of the old parties will endeavot
to put into legislation any one of our
planks it can count upon our hearty
support In so doing, but we will not
rest contented until the entire platform
is enacted into law and becomes part
of our political system, national and
state.
"I am proud, indeed, that the great
good foltune has been mine to fight
shoulder to shoulde with the men and
women who. in the ranks and in various
positions of leadership, have waged this
great battle for social and Industrial
justice. So far from being over, the
battle lias just begun We w ill not rest
content until every feature of the Pro
gressive program has been put into ef
fect, and when this has been done, un
questionably there will have opened to
us new avenues along which it will still
b a duty to work for the moral and
economic betterment of our people.

FAOOFPARISIANS
I
Malady Seems To Be Merely:
Appendicitis in New. High-
Sounding Dress.
PARIS, Nov. 12.—Paris will have its
fashion, whether it be In frocks, frills
or fancies. Its latest craze Is a new
malady named Typhlite. This ailment
is not really of modern invention, for it
was known to our forefathers. It had
its vogue, it appears, in the early Na- |
poleonle period, but was lost sight of
until recently. Meantime, appendicitis
has held sway, and no properly regu
lated home has been without it. To
have arrived at middle age minus an
inflammation of the appendix is, in
these days, to be beyond the pale of
"swaggerdom." But now a new mala
dy a la mode has made its reappear
ane, and if you have not had typhlite—
well, it is far better to say you have.
Sounds smart, you know.
As to what this new ailment exactly
is, a recent discussion thereon by the
eminent sawbones Doyen. Labbe, Cour
tellemont, Guelpa and others gave the
information that its treatment Is prac
tically the same that would be em
ployed for the new dethroned king ap
pendicitis. Perhaps Docteur Cade's
opinion—that "the distinction as be
tween appendicitis and typhlite is mole
or less theoretic" —about sums up the
situation. It would seem that typhlite I
is but the old wolf in more modern ap
pa rel.

Bull Moose Cry
Recalls the Frog Story.
"I am surprised and disappointed that
none of the papers has resurrected and
published that story about the farmer and
the frogs, in view of the alarming
amount of talk put up by the Bull Mong
ers of Fulton county previous to Novem
ber 5, taken in conjunction with the num
ber of ballots cast for the colonel on that
fateful day." said a caller in the customs
house today. “It Is a good old story, and
I hate to have It forgotten. If you in
sist. I’ll tell It myself.
"This farmer got extravagant one day
In town and went to a swell restau
rant. The first thing on the bill that
struck him was ’Frog legs, 60 cents.'
" 'Say,' says the farmer, ‘that's mighty
high for frawgs. There's a million of
'em l)i the pond below my house; so many
1 can't sleep tor their bellowin'. What’ll
you give me to bring you some?'
'l'll give you 40 cents a piece,’ says
the restaurant man.
•' ‘Can you use a thousand tomorrow ?'
says the farmer.
"'I reckon so. Bring 'em in,' says
the restaurant man.
"Next morning the farmer comes in,
reaches down in his pocket and digs up
one poor, skinny frog.
“ 'Where’s the other 999?’ asks the
restaurant man.
"The farmer looks kind o' sheepish
" Friend.' he says, ‘from the noise they
made I'd have sworn there was a mil
lion frawgs in that pond. But when I
killed this feller the noise stopped. He
was the only t'rawg on the whole blame
plantation.' "

sociation of Farmers Institute Workers,

ident of the association, opened the
program by delivering the address of
welcome to al! the visiting delegates.
He declared that not only were the in
stitutes a tremendous uplifting force
for the agricultural workers of the na
tion, but that they were also of im
mense practical value in that
taught the greatest possible, yield from
the smallest possible acreage. He urged
the workers of the Institutes to devote
their efforts to getting the farmers to

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
Governor Joseph M. Brown takes a
genuine de light in collecting things
quaint and curious, and particularly
JAXX-S E> -NTV32ST
those that tell of
days in Georgia’s
political history
long dead and
gone.
As a matter of
fact, there are two
distinct and sepa
rate Joseph M.
Browns —one i-.
the governor, who
knows he is the
governor, the de
light of his friends
and the despair of
his foes, and the
other is a sort of
old-fashioned gen
tleman. rather in
clined to lik« old
fashioned ways
and old-fashioned folks —an altogether
likable, interesting, and very , much out
of the ordinary person,, and one whom
the casual observer would not imme
diately set down its the executive of one
of the great states of the nation.
Knowing the governor’s weakness for
collecting the quaint and curious, as
aforesaid, otn* of his friends take
pleasure in helping him along in the
game, and one of them Sent him the
other day a copy of The Atlanta Her
ald of January 6. 1883, which, besides a
complimentary write-up of the then
business man Joseph M. Brown, con
tains much that is interesting—partic
ularly to Atlantans who recall the days
when The Herald flourished.
The paper was edited by Small (Sam
W.) and Williams (C. H.) It compares
in typographical appearance altogether
creditably with newspapers of today,
but its methods of handling the news
and its physical make-up are things of
the long ago.
This particular newspaper, which
seems to have been a sort Os special
edition, contains the pictures of many
famous Georgian-, dead these many,
many years
There are pictures of Judge W. R.
Hammond. State Librarian F. L. Haral
son. ('ommissiorp' of Agriculture John
T. Henderson, ex-Governor Benjamin
Conley (who became governor when
Rufus Bullock, the last of the recon
struction governors, abdicated his hon
ors), Colonel L. P. Grant (father-in
law of tlte present governor-elect), and
such well known associate railway mag
nates of the early days of railroading
in Georgia as E. P. Alexander, L. N.
Trammell. G. J. Foreacer, and E. W.
('ole.
Among the newspaper lights of those
days appear, w ith appropriate sketches,
the pictures of W. A. Hemphill, Joel
Chandler Harris. Evan P. Howell. Hen
ry W. Grady, Charles H. Smith (Bill
Arp) and N. <*. T. Finch.
Besides Colonel Trammell, whose pic
ture heretofore Is mentioned, there art
the likenesses of Major Campbell Wal
lace (whose descendant and namesake
is now the efficient secretary of the
commission) and former Governor
James M. Smith —and these three com
posed Georgia's first railroad commis
sion.
Other Georgians receiving honorable
mention in this issfle of The Herald
were Patrick Walsh, then editor of The
Augusta Chronicle, and afterward
United States senator from Georgia;
Senator Alfred H. Colquitt, a former
governed: Benjamin Crane, a pioneer
in the commercial activity of Atlanta,
and H. I. Kimball, the man who built
both the old and the present Kimball
House—the greatest and grandest ho
tel in Diye in the days of its creator.
Under the head of "Personal Para

paper such items as these:

“Ed Cox, a distant relative of the
governor, was pardoned by Govern
or Stephens today.”
Under another heading. "Talk of the
Town,” it may be observed that thing
then were not so different in Atlanta
in some ways, from what they are to
day.
The leader is informed that:
"Atlanta’s harvest is mud.
“A mud scow passed up the ca
nal on Marietta street today, right
in front of thfe capitol.
The voting today for constable
was very light, few caring to brave
the elements to help another man
into office.
"The West End street cars being
submerged at the Peters street
crossing, Uncle Joremus Harris
now ferries to his home in a flat
boat, using the telegraph line as a
hawser,
"The condition of the Alabama
street pavement, though only a few
months old, will soon be as unde
sirable for a roadway as any other
of our miserable streets, it being
full of hog wallows the entire
length."
From which few choice selections ths
gentle reader will conclude, readily
enough, that the streets of the way baci;
yonder were some botchwork streets
themselves, here and there!
Among the advertisements appear
those of the DeGive Opera house (now
the Bijou) announcing the coming of
Frank Mayo in “Davy Crocket,” Katie
Putnam in "Lena, the Madcap,” Char
lotte Thompson in "Jane Eyre,” Baker
and Farrow in “Chris and Lena." and
Mme. Christine Nilsson in “one grand
concert,” assisted by Miss Hope Glenn,
contralto; M. Theo. Biorksten and Sig.
Giuseppe Del Puente.
P. H. Snook was selling furniture In
those days and advertising it heavily;
and Langston, Crane & Co. were cotton
factors. James A. Anderson was sell
ing clothing, but was stingy with news
paper space, only occupying some two
inches to apprise the public of that
fact.
Apparently, the advertising game had
not yet become a big factor in the
commercial life of Atlanta, for the busi
ness ads are few and far between in
The Herald of 1883.
The only houses advertised in this
paper that still are engaged ip busi
ness in Atlanta Phillips & Crew,
piano dealers, and the National Surgical
Institute.
It is interesting to note, from a read
ing of the railroad schedules printed,
that one might leave Atlanta at I
<> clock in 1883 and reach Chattanooga
at !) that night, if things w’ent as they
were framed up to go.
Two of three of the editorial para
graphs wdll serve to show r the temper
of the times some thirty years ago.
Witness these samples:
General Grant insists upon the
passage of a Nicaragua canal
scheme. First time we ever heard
of Grant being interested in a wa
ter scheme.
“While the legislature of Ten
nessee was considering an increase
in the state treasurer's bond, he
quietly increased his salary to $4 ".
000, and skipped to pastures new.
"It makes little difference to the
people of Georgia which faction
°F 9 le R p PUblican party gets recog
nition in Washington. What we
want is an administration that will
not recognize either of them."
The editors of The Atlanta Herald of
the 80’s would have felt better, ot
course, could they have looked forward
with prophetic eye to today, and the
certainty of an administration in
Washington guaranteed to "turn th
rascals out!”
