John Templa Graves, of Tbe AtlanU Georgian, who was a dele gate from AUanU to represent tbat dty before tbe congressional committee a* an advocate of his flourishing town as a site for the proposed new sub-treasury, takes occasion to criticise tbe efforts of Birmingham and- attempts to discount tbe effort of ex-Governor Johnston by rather ridiculing bis remarks la advocacy of this dty a* tbe proper piece for tbe proposed Institution. Tbe writer of this article has known John Temple Graves sine* his babyhood, and learned to love btm and to admire bit intellect many year* before be ever saw Joe Johnston. Grave* Is a grand- nephew of John C. Calhoun, tbe great South Carolinian, who prov ed a great factor in the early days of this republic, and this younger dladple of tba former advocate of great principles is es pecially a power In tbe arena of oratory and poaaeaaes many of tbe gift* of the unde. However. John Tsmple Graves should know »that everything emanating from Birmingham's representative cltlxen la of a prac tical. rather than of a theoretics! nature, and that figures In tbaaa days count more than oratory-. He must also learn tbat Jos. F. Johnston baa bean through th* rubs, on tbe field of battle In defense of the cause advocated by Mr. Graves' distinguished grand-uncle. In dvle. Industrial and political life, and that be un derstands commercial affairs as well as he did how to draw bis sword In defense of the cause he and Mr. Calhoun espoused.— Birmingham Dally American. ■ The American evidently did not read The Georgian'* comment on Governor Jobnaton. Our critidam pf tbe governor was not for hts "over pradlcal line of argument." but tar the utter lack or practical argument, and th* expenditure of.hla whole time In an amiable, delightful hut ut terly Irrelevant speech. IfMi We fully Wileve that tbe governor could have made an able ■PkW&ail'tlfiAMli.toe material on which to base It. With a paucity of facts, the governor wsp forced to fsil bsck upon hit wealth of sentiment and Imagination, and this be did most gracefully, receiving our applause. We have slated tbe governor for a leading place si tho speaker’s table of the banquet which will celebrate the location of the sub-treasury lu Atlanta. DELMAB AND HIS GREAT OPPORTUNITY IN IBM. Tbit California lawyer. Dolphin X. Delmas, directing the Thaw de fense In New York, bad a great opportunity to become a great man at tbe St. Ixiul* convention of 1904. and be came very near to utilising It. But not quit*. j n win bo remembered that at the Democratic convention of 1904, a lit tle over half of the small section of tbe great hall la which the convention was held, was pledged and Iron-bound In Ita preformed loyalty to Alton B. Pdrkar. Two-fifths of the convention and the whole vast audience of 17,- 0t)0. people that dieted about aad engulfed the convention, was riotous ly and rampantly for Bryan or Cockrell or Hesrat or anybody save Par- The reading public will remember bow by the records Bryan utterly eclipsed everybody else In the convention—bow his oratory swept floor " and gallcrywhcncvcrfieipolce, end bow the great eudlenee whose dim. or drowned everybody else sunk to silence at bla lightest whisper. Tbe Hearst delegates In that body, 104 strong, had chosen Delphln X. Delmas, of California, to make the nominating speech for their candidate. A dosen dull and comparatively uninteresting speeches had been flung off Into the chaps of sound and Inattention. Cbamp Clark, Indeed, had made an electric and thrilling presentation of Cockrell, of Missouri, who never bad a chance or a following, hut with ibat exception not a ripple of real Interest or enthuilaim had stirred the great ball. Then. Anally amid the buah and expectation aroused by tbe pictur esque surroundings of th* candidate of a definite democracy. Delphln X. Delmas, of California, rose to nominate Hearst. Th* fame of him. Indefl- nlte and vague, had crept out Into (he convention and had somehow touched the floor* and the galleries, and upon th* strength of It the great audience, wonderful to relate, gave him profound and hushed attention. And as be stepped to the floor with his Impressive and Xapoelonlc face, calm and magnetic, be had the opportunity of hla life. He began beautifully.. Lifting hla Anger and pointing as he spoke until It seemed aa If he al most touched the other end of the horlsou, be said In deep and thrilling toues: , "California. California," be said It thrice—"California, for the first time lu her history, presents a native son for th* presidency of the United States." The sentence In Its brevity, comprehensiveness and magnetism swept the audience like a west wind and Hie orator had caught them with hla opening word. He went on for five minutes In a strain of Impressive eloquence that rivaled Bryan’s, and If he could have sustained It he would have stood shoulder to shoulder with the famous Xebraskan as the hero of the convention, and would have carried home a national and en during fame. But suddenly, somewhere, and without warning or explanation, the magnetism died from tbe speaker s manner, the thrill left his voice, the pulse of Ills oratory fell from exalted heights lo mediocrity, and he spoke for ten minutes longer on the dead level of Ike tedious speeches that had gone before. Anti from the most superb beginning which auy orator had made In that great assembly, and from the moat highly raised expectation that bad come in the convention's life, the California orator whose power was put Into bis oiienlng word, dropped from the heights to (he level plain and became a groundling like the rest From his great ex ordium he drifted Into a tame peroration and sunk to silence ami oblivion simultaneously. If he had continued In the strata- In which lie had begun It he had held the high level or that supreme eloquence—w ith the theme he had In band—tf he had swept Ihe contrast between a detinue, and a timeserving aud truckling democracy—It he had palntsd a picture of the man of action and of courage whom he represented In contrast to the man of weakness and compromise whom he opoaed—If Ihe eagle note In hla earlier utter ance had been maintained lo the end—Delphln X. IK-lmaa. of California, would have repealed at 81. Louis the triumph of Bryan at Chicago, ahd our Democracy would have had another oratot ami perhaiwt another ld«L \Yo have never heard the explanation of the sudden drop ul Uux bril liant Californian when he bait securely leached the height on which men look face to fare Into the eye of faun-. Whether It were physical Indis position. tit whether he had pitched his strain beyond the power of hla pinions to maintain—whether the fatigue of ihe long hours aud the high tension bad snapped some vital cord wUhluJii* eloquence, we have nev- *er learned. , But we do know that he had u great opportunity which he seised grandly at lint, aud held It with hands t-f brilliant and Inspiring power, aud Just as It seemed to lie safely within his grasp, lie dropix-d It from u nerveless hand, and fell back Into the ranks of the ordinary. jf They cay Delphln X.

To th* Editor of Tbs Georgian; Whll* tba mind of tho general public Is only beginning to grasp tbo grave dangers which bssst tbo human r*e* because of tbs alarming tnrrssss In mortality du* to tubsreutoris. physl clans hav* known tba facta for maar year*. and until comparatively recent ly. have battled bravely, but vainly, against th* ravages of this disease. Hops of permanently Improved condi tions first dawned with |h* discovery of the tobcrcule bacdlll by Professor Koch, of Germany, and ever sine* tbs dlssas* was - demonstrated to be the direct result of a germ the scientific world has unlt*d In an effort to find soma antidots to combat Ibis evil which has threatened the life of patlone. Serums, lymphs and ao-callsd "con aumptpm cures" were tried again and again, each one -roving equally'Inef fectual. until, after ysara of research. Physlc-Uae are-at last realising the es sentials for th* proper treatment, cur* •nd suppression of this III. r Early Diagnosis. Perhaps the most urgent requisite to a curs of tuberculosis Is a prompt re. A ognltlon of th* presence of th* disease. By this means pstisnta are able to corns under the care of a physician be fore the diseas* has progressed beyoni the point of suppression. Unfortunate ly too many cases are not now taken under,treatment until It la too lat* to do permanent good and foe-thla reason the many fatal cases continue.to up hold th* "Incurable" theory which was, for so long, applied to all cases of consumption. ■' “—— Th* second benefit to b* gained by early dlagnoala la that well persons are protected from ihe Infection which ia one of the most fertile causes of- the spread of this disease, and this point can not be too strongly emphasised. Mannar of Living a Moans of Curo. Whll* even ths bast and most ad vanced medication Is almost useless in tresting tuberculosis, tba manner at living Is tbe main consideration to b* observed by patlsnts 'suffering from this disease. Although The most f*k cent Investigations have proved that sir aad sunshine are the best medicine* for consumption, thsa* alone can not effect a cur*. Good food and plenty of It Is aa Important a factor as good air, and In addition to both thss* elements a regular, sanitary and prudent man ner of living is also an abaoluts neces sity for a tuberculosis patient. Ob- v lousiy, tucraror*; no pTiynciur can be sura that bis patient Is following bis directions In thsse particulars unless such patlsnts are under hts direct ob servation and In an Institution wherq Implicit obedience to his rules will b* enforced. Hence It will bs plain that sanitariums for the treatment aad cure of tuberculosis are vital necessi ties for any truly civilised communi ties. Th* Homs far Incurables. Atlanta Is fortunate In having at least one Institution where a few- tu berculosis patlsnts can be cared for. but It Is essential that Ihe facllltls* of this Institution b* greatly Increased. At a recent annual meeting of th* Home -for Incurable* - Association H was determined to bring the queetlon of a separate department tor this class of patients strongly before tbe pubjlc, and the skilful and admlrabl* manner with which the patients wow In this In. stttutton are cored for, as well as the. history of th* home, would warrant IhJ belief that the management w*s capa ble of caring for a much larger number were tli* fatriUltos (ranted to I ham It was also shown That over one-half ths patient* applying hav* tuberculosis. —AboulTtve years ago ttUi ssms hand of ladles saw fit to organise a home In Atlanta to take chronic cases of all kinds. Including tuberculosis patients. They began with a email cottage house <• Cfiutch street (Carnegie place), with only eight dollars in th* treasury. Todsy they own and occupy a hand some brick Dnildlng On South Boule vard and Woodward ovsnue. In' on* it the moat salubrious locations In the city. This building, which cost 119,099. was mad* possible by the contributions re ceived mm the people of Atlanta in response to tho earnest and psraevsr- ln» efforts of thss* ladles, whll* th* splendid alt* was th# gift of lfr. A. O. Rhode*, of Atlanta. The tract on which th* present building stands consists of .fly* acres of high, well drained and m«! wooded land. *nd could not possi bly be a mors Idsal location for the fraction of a separate building for tba purposes mentioned. Tba original plans of th* Institution comprised a sonants ^MMtorconcumpirv^buttorlack ox tunas tilts wsa impossible, hence two ward* ware devoted to the use of these unfortunate persons. Thera are about fourteen beds In these wards, about half of which are always full, whll* at tlmea there are more applica tion* for admission than can possibly b* met with- accommodations. The present'resources of th* institution an entirely Inadequate for the proper care of tuberculosis patient*, so this effort to establish a building (quipped with all modern Improvements and having an endowment sufllclsnt to support It In proper manner Is almost a vital na- ctsalty. Jt |s designed to have In the new building sun parlors, root garden, large, light, airy room* and ths mod. i form of treatment require* suffl- >l)t funds to sutmly' ths paUshts with th* proper nourishment, as has already been stated. In tbe home at present there are two rooms for private patients, but It Is designed to have a latter numbei ‘ IC new building, th* fees from s Ulsttta to be devoted exclusively e maintenance of the Institution. The home Is dolpg good work for ironic Invalids, but It has always bean crippled for lark of adequate fuade It Is designed solely for the poor of At lanta. and Ihe time will come when the city authorities will realls* that It will prove an economic measure to do. nate a sum toward this new building, as well as to continue the email ap propriation which the Home for Incur, able* no* claims. It has already been stated In th* columns of Th* Georgian that-only a proper education of th* people Is'neces sary for a proper response to the ap sis for a tuberculosis hospital; this I believe to b* true, and with th* education which tbo press offers to Ihe people and tha agitation for which The Georgian has thrown open Ita valuable columns tha present plana ahould be speedily consummated. Atlanta Is now th* only point tn th* stats of Georgia which offers a tuber culosis patient a chance of recovery or of alleviation of bit sufferings; In tact, there are but few Institution* In the entire South which will accept such patients at all. What la th* result? The disease has grown with alarming rapidity and th* mortality has propor tionately increased. With a tuberculo sis hospital th* patient* can be edu cated In all sanitary precautions and the danger to the community mini mised. Leaving tha humanitarian ele ment out of the consideration, the prac tical economic argument* In favor ot such an Inatltutlon ahould appeal to ovary thinking mind. Mr*. John A.

S. A. VISAXSKA, M D. The Charleston Xews and Courier has this to say of the Immigration movement In which Georgia la so Inter ested : "The steamship Wltteklnd will ar rive In Charleston very soon on her second voyage, bringing Immigrants from Germany. Her first voyage to Charleston was a splendid success in every way and the record made en couraged tbs owners of the vessel in their experiment of establishing a per manent line between Bremen and Cbarleaton. The final success of this experiment depends, of course, on the assurance of cargoes to the ship Into and out of Charleston. The first cargo, both in and out. waa secured through the efforts of Charleston busi ness men and a second Incoming cargo has been secured In tho same way. An outgoing cargo la yet to be furnished tor the Wltteklnd on her tint voyage and, although It Is difficult to secure tbla without the Interest of tbe rail roads—and It seems Imposlble to enlist that activity—we feel perfectly sure tbat It will be obtalnrd. It must be. Tbe success of this Immigrant line means more to Charleston directly than to any other community of the Bouth. though the whole section la In terested In It. We believe that aa soon aa the Immigration seeking movement Is fairly started, the adjoining states will center Ibelr support upon tbe Charleston line and will Interest them selves to furnish freight eargoes for the vessels In order to asaure the transportation of Immigrant* to sup ply the demand* of the South. There are *ome very encouraging promises, actually some assurances that this will be done, and ths prospect ts bright for the owning of a large commerce through this port, directly Induced by the Immigration movement.
