Inaugurated a reign of terror against

Just prior to the arrival of the
American warship President Davlla

ROOSEVELT'S REMARK.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 12. It was
learned through friends of Mayor
Maddox that while Colonel Roosevelt
and the mayor were riding through
the city Roosevelt remarked to Mayor
Maddox that if ho were sure he could
carry a southern state he would
again run for the presidency.
Colonel Roosevelt s remark to May
or Maddox and his general activity
while In Georgia hns led to a strong
belief here that he is practically out
in the open for the presidency In
1912. Many politicians said today
that thqy would not bo surprised to
hear that Roosevelt had made a pub
lic announcement of his intention to
"stand ready to answer a demand
from his party."
Roosevelt talked politics and "new
nationalism" on every occasion that
was offered. His trip through tho
state was like that of a candidate
during a heated campaign, and It
will take a mighty strong argument
to induce Georgia to believe that
" Teddy" Is not now actively engaged
In an effort to land himself back In
the White House.

ATTEMPT
OFF
The threatened and badly exploited attempt of the "North
American" to make an "expose" relating to John K. Tener,
turns out to be nothing more or less than a contemptible
scheme to boom the circulation of the North American. If
they had any proof why did they not publish it at once? Why
hold it back for 48 hours? Answer: In order to give their cir
culation manager a chance to send out the following letter:
The circulation manager knew that there would be a de-
, mand for the paper and had 48
secure orders.-. -
DEAR SIR:
No doubt you noticed in this morning's issue of the "North
American" a communication addressed to Hon. Boies Pen
rose. The communication is timed io p. m., October ioth,
and requests an answer within 48 hours. The time will expire
at 10 p. m. October 12th.
It has occurred to me, in view of the tone of the communi
cation which appeared this morning, that you might desire
copies of the issue of October 13th for use throughout your
county.
We do not print extra papers except on orders, hence if
you desire additional papers for use it will be necessary for
you to write or telegraph so that it will reach me not later
than 7.00 p. m. Wednesday nights-October 12th, stating the
number you want and where you wish them sent. These will
be billed to you at the regular rate of one cent per copy.
Yours truly,
J. D. LAMBERTSON,
Mgr. Cir. Dept. "The North American"

CALLED INSURRECTION PRE
MIER DECLARES THAT STRIKE
IS Rl'ILT ON CRIMINAL FOUN
DATIONS. Paris. Oct. 13. The strike of the
railroad men. which threatens to
spread throughout the length nnd
breadth of France, Is denounced by
Premier Rrland as "an Insurrection
purely, built upon criminal founda
tions." Tho prlemlcr said the strike lias
been called while negotiations were
going on through himself and the min
ister of public works for an adjust
ment of grievances, and he promised
thnt the Instigators of Hie strike would
bo criminally prosecuted.
Much destruction has been wrought
on the Western system, where the
strikers nnd their supporters have held
up and wrecked trains, blocked tracks,
destroyed signals, ripped up rails and
cut telephone and telegraph wires.
The government has ordered the ar
rest of a score of tho strike leaders,
and Instructions have been Issued to
the troops to use severe measures
wherever occasion required.
The losses to commerce already are
tremendous. Scores of trains have
been stalled along the roads, many of
these carrying food supplies, which
even now have become unlit for use.
The passengers on the steamship Oce
anic, who took the train at Cherbourg
for Paris, are blocked at Mantes-sur-Selne,
about thirty-six miles from Par
Is. Many Americans have been com
pelled to remain In this city or to pay
fabulous sums to reach the coast, so
that they might embark for England.
Seven hundred sacks of American mall
are now being transported from Havre
to Paris up the Seine, and the French
steamship lino will employ a tug to
convey the passengers for the steamer
La Touralno, sailing on Saturday.
M. Jaures, leader of the Socialists in
the qhamber of deputies, answered
Premier" Brland, charging thnt the rail
roads of the government were respon
sible for the present crisis.
He said that the scheme of militariza
tion was dangerous, as it was certain
to weaken military discipline and in
crease antimllltarism.
