THE GLOBE CLOTHING COMPANY 89-91 WHITEHALL ST., ATLANTA, GA. WATSON’S WEEKLY JEFFERSONIAN. Thomson, Ga., June 17, 1907. Mr. J. S. Bradbury, McCauley, Tex. My Dear Sir: Your favor re ceived. Hon. Eugene F. Loud, of California, had nothing whatever to do with originating rural free deliv ery to people who live outside of towns, cities and villages. I remem ber very distinctly that Mr. Loud threw cold water on my proposition when 1 tried to pass the resolution which is the foundation of the pres ent rural free delivery system. He said to me, “Why, that scheme of yours would cost the government, yearly sixty millions of dollars.” My reply to him was, “Well even if it does, the people pay the money, an<l the people ought to get the ben efit.” If the editor to whom you . refer will turn to the Congressional Record for February 17, 1893, he will get the facts, and will not have to depend upon my word, or the word of any one else. He will find from the official record of Congress that on February 17, 1893, Congress adopted, as an ame’dm'nt to the postoffice appropriation bill, a resolu tion of mine appropriating ten thou sand dollars for experimental free delivery of mails to- people living outside of towns, cities and villages Previous to this time there had been what was called the “Rural Free Delivery System,” instituted by Hon. John Wanamaker, Postmaster-Gen eral, but this system was confined to incorporated towns and villages. The country people, proper, got no ben efit from it whatever. Yours verv trulv, THOS. E. WATSON. • • Hatcher Station, Ga., June 17, 1907. Hon. Thomas E. Watson, Thomson,. Ga. Dear Sir: Please find enclosed one dollar, for which send me The Weekly Jeffersonian one year. I get magazine regularly, and would have been glad, indeed, to have taken The Weekly Jeffersonian from the first issue, but am hard pressed. When my furnishing merchant sold my few bales of cotton last winter, he settled my account and sent to my Tom Watson mail-box my last year’s mortgage and thirtee ndollars and seventy-two cents. While this is distressingly poor luck, it’s better than thousands of toilers had, or will have, until they come together and vote right. E. N. KING. RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY MAN DEVILLE LOCAL, NO. 613, JUNE 15, 1907. We, your committee, of Mande ville Local, No. 613, of Carroll county, Georgia, make the follow ing report: Re it Resolved, First, that we are unalterably land irrevocably oppos ed to foreign immigration of anv kind or any manner; and we will spurn with contempt any move bv our law-making body to spend the people’s money to further any move ment to bring foreigners to our sun ny Southland, and, particularly, Georgia. Second,-That a copy of these res olutions be furnished our newly elected governor, Hon. Hoke Smith, also, that all papers friendly to the cause, be requested to copy same. D. R. BROCK, A. D. ROGERS, J. E. COOK, Committee on Resolutions. WE NEED THE PARCEL POST. Mr. Editor: I am a song book publisher. I have been following this business for years, and if any poor mortal has suffered at the hands of the ex press corporation I am the one. Let me tell you what happened recently: I sent a small pack of books, eight pounds, to a friend in Arkansas. The postage was so high I decided to send by express. The agent decided that 45 cents would cover charges, so off it went; in a few days, the agent received notice that a defi ciency of 95 cents stood against him; that the rate was $1.40 on 8 pounds for that distance, so I had nothing else to do but to “rack up” and pay the 95 cents. In this case it would have been well for me to have given the books to my friend, not prepaid; in other words, the, ex press company reached fosth its greedy hand and took from me all that was left to me. And so it goes from dav to day. Is there no re lief for one like me? To use the mail for such matter means to cut profits to almost nothing. The book maker is in the same hole with the farm r; he can make his crop (books) but he cannot market them with a profit. Think of this great legalized corporation wrenching from an in dustry the amount of five and one half cents a copy on a small song book, moving it fro m Georgia to Arkansas I We need the parcel post, and we will have it just as soon as the masses understand the situation. It is said that freight rates are unrea sonable, but when one runs against the monster he feels that he has been specially favored to get out at all. We must have relief from this trust. Give us the parcel post, and govern ment ownership of the express traffic. J. L. MOORE. Bethlehem, Ga.
