Muxxling the Newspapers.
It la difficult to Imagine outaldc of
Rusaia, such n bill aa that propoard
to be -Introduced by the poatal com
mission for the government regula
tion of newapapera.
If the poatal commission had been
made up of retired railroad prealdenta
or of cspltallata etlll serving ho rail
road directors—ell of them anxious
for revenge upon the free, bold press
that brought about the rato bill, the
leclalntlon proposed could not have
been more drastic nnd revolutionary.
Just consider the terms proposed:
The bill provides that the newapa
per title end date must appear upon
every page of every pert, section or
supplement of the paper.
No newapaper or part or section of
n newapaiier or other periodical must
consist wholly or substantially of fic
tion.
No newapaper or part or section of
a newapaper must have advertising to
a greater extent than f<0 per cent of lla
superficial area.
Knob part nr section of a newspaper
must be nf the aame site, form and
weight of paper.
Supplements moat lie of the same
form as the main body of the publi
cation. save In the ease of maps and
plans illustrative of the text, must
contain no advertisements and must
he supplied only to complete matter
left Incomplete in the malu body of
tha publication.
Tin' number of sample copies ate
thorliod must not exceed 10 |»>v cent
of the paid Issue of the paper
With each Issue of his publication
the publisher must make, under oath,
a statement showing the munltcr of
copies mailed to subscribers of dif
ferent classes, the number in bulk, tin-
weight thereof and the average weight
of a single copy.
The publisher Is alto required to
furnish, under oath, "such other Infor
mation with respect to the publication
as the postmaster general may by reg
ulation prescribe."
Newspapers must be folded as the
postmaster general may prescribe.
Tin- present rate of 1 cent a pound
Is alsilished save for packagea weigh
ing not less than ten pounds.
For other copies the proposed rate
Is Is one-eighth of a rent for two
ounces or leas, one-quarter of a cent
for four ounces or less und one-half a
cent for four outtcea or lesa and one
half a rent for aaeh additional tout
ounces or fraction thereof, thus pen-
aiding the larger papera.
I'ndellvered papera are pensllxed by
a Charge of doublo the third-class rale
Erie coping are forbidden save to
exchanges, to advertisers as samples
and to ugenta or aollrltors.
The full printed aubacription rates
t sat, to agents commissions) must be
charged in all caaes without reduction
by rebate, premium, gift or otherwise,
this applying to all subscriptions,
w hether by mall or otherwise.
There It not a fair minded citizen
In the-republic who will not condemn
}e menace which theah provisions
contain to the liberty and prosperity
of the press.
ff It la a movement to curtail the
power and Influence of the American
newapaper. and to remora the re
straining Influence of fearless public!
ty .from the aggression of power or of
wealth, then the people ara likely to
be beard from.
With all Its faults, the American
newapaper Is the beat safeguard of
American liberty. The common peo
ple havs no champion ao constant, no
source of protection so ready.
The laws of libel and other laws
wWh govern and restrain the press I capital wbleb wll! realise this fact and learn (hat the pgople can belter
have been ample to protect the people I. lm led than driven, and that the conflict between capital and the people
from any arbitrary or unworthy use I will be obliterated when capital reallsss not on(y the beauty bat tha ulU-
of Its power.
But If this postal commission should
work Its will, then under Its new
atatutea the Republican parly when
In power could reatraln the Demo-
cratlc papers and on the rare occa
sions when the Democrats get In. they
could restrict the utterances of the
Republican organa.
And the press would be no long
er the champion of liberty hut the
mere puppet of political parties,
THE CONSTITUTION AND THE CHILD.
Toward the close of Senator'Beveridge's speech on a national law
for the portectlon of the children he said, after citing numerous Instances
In which the Interstate oommerce clause of the constitution had been
Invoked:
"It Is a curious thing to ma that In not one of tbeee Instunces was
the constitutionality of any statute raised where no business Interests
were affected by It."
It was a significant observation.
It may lw added that where yie selfish Interests of the iwople have
demanded effective legislation congress baa always found a way to carry
out their wishes.
Take the meat Inspection bill, for Inatance. The meat packing In
dustry, centered In Chicago, was under tha Jurisdiction of the Mate of
Illinois and regulated by the police power both of the state and the mu
nicipality. A young novelist. I'pton Sinclair, wrote a book describing the
conditions In Packlngtown. That alarmed and arouaed the country. It
was seen- that Illinois was not effectively coping with the problem. It
Was seen that under the commerce clause of the constitution the states
could hot protect themselves against the tale within their—borders of
Packlngtown products. Therefor* congress passed a' meat Inapectlon
bill by which, In Secrotary Wilson's sententious phrase, entile are In
spected "from the hoof to the can." The constitutional Issue was not
raised when the people of the country had spoken their mlntl on the
. abuses of the meal packing business. Chairman Wadsworth, of the com
mittee on sgricultyre In the bouse, loaned to the side of the meat pack
ers and the people of hla district In New York saw to It that Mr. Wads-
~worth should remain at-home hereafter.
Now contrast the speed with which the popular will was enacted
Into law In this matter with the long delays In connection with a humane
law like the requirement thnt the railroad should uae automatic car cou
plers. Here only n limited number of people were Interested, the poor
train hands whose lives were dally ancrlflced In the coupling of the cars.
And yet finally that reform haa been brought about though It would seem
to have been a glaring case of federal Interference. It took money to
equip the roads with the automatic car couplers and human life la cheap
when It la put In the ocalc with tbc dividend* of'the great corporations.
There has been un extraordinary htlerapMn mngreaxTo pronounce(he
varloua child labor lillta unconstitutional before thoae bills could bo
brought to a vote. Pour such bills have been introduced In this con
gress. The Beveridge bill already noted In this paper; the Blmmons bill.
Introduced by Senator Simmons, of North Carolina, which provide* that
the federal government shall not transport the products of mine or factory
where children are employed In violation of state child labor laws; Sen
ator Lodge's bill, which Is rather drastic In making the advanced child
labor law of Masachusetts a standard for tho whole country, and n bill
Introduced In the houae under the taxing power of congroas, making an
ad valorem tax which would be practically prohibitive on the products of
mine or factory, entering Into Interstate commerce, where the labor of
children Is employed. We do not blame the honorable members of con
gress from endeavoring to escape a vote on these measures by declaring
them unconstitutional In advance, and, as we said, the efforts to do so
have been extraordinary.
In Senator Beveridge's absenco Senator Spooner, of the senate ju
diciary commitoc, moved that the Beveridge bill be referred to the sen-
ate judiciary committee. Tho senate judiciary committee referred It to a
special committee of which Senator Spooner was chairman, thus erect
ing. M senator norsrtdge put tt, a "junior supreme court within tho Uni
ted States senate," of which we aupposo Senator Spooner might bo called
the chief justice.
The same expedient has bean adopted In the house. A bill which
passed both houses on Its merits, ordered an Investigation with a special
appropriation, of tho labor of womeen and children In the United States.
When It came to granting the appropriation the matter was refererd to
the Judiciary committee of the house, and while reporting that the Inves
tigation was clearly within the right* of congress, tt went out of Its way
to report that the national government had nothing to do with the regu
lation of the labor of children through the Interstate commerce provis
ion.
There Is no doubt a deeper reason for tills extraordinary solicitude
for the the constitution than the mere opposition to a child labor hill.
The Manufacturers' Association as a body Is not opposed to the regulation
of child labor, as many of the great Industrie* are not affected by the
system. But tho oppressive cnrimratlons, during this strenuous admin
istration. have begun to fesr the federal power *1 a protector of the rights
of the states which these corporations have ao mercilessly overridden.
Mr. Bryan has pointed out the Issue with his uaual clear Insight. Ha
says that this Intarstatc commarc* clausa of the constitution which Ic In
voked In behalf of tho children can at readily be Invoked to prohibit tho
traneportatlon of truet-mede good* as of ehlld-modt good*. Hanct thtao
tsar*.
Not until the state authority and state legislation takes on the shape
and vigor of real itateemaushlp can wo afford to discredit the strong
hand of national legislation.
But tho friends of the children need not fear the dual Issue of the
contention. Tha child will win. The problem of saving nur cltltenshlp
from the degeneracy which attend! child labor Is a vital problem. The
Improvement of our cltltenshlp, tlielr education In Democracy, llee at the
hails of all other Improvement. The discussion that has now become na
tion wide will go on, and the revelations of tho abuse of childhood will
shock the conscience ot the nation until that conscience compels an ad
equate solution of tho problem.
The very atara In their courses are fighting for the welfare of the
child, and the will of the people will Anally be translated Into law that this
curse may be removed from the land ot the free, that wo may again
"present a serene front to civilisation."
WE COMMEND THE STREET RAILWAY COMPANY.
The Georgian makes haste to "take pleasure In commending" the Geor
gia Railway and Klectrlc Company for the published announcement of
Its Improved schedules.
Having been first nt the appeal ami last at the reminder of the neces
sity for this Improvement, wc cannot afford to be laggard In an expres
sion ot appreciation u hen a demand 1s granted und an Improvement Is
brought to |uiss.
Whatever the motives or whatever the pressure which has Induced
the company to make these Improvements, they are welcome and they
commend the corporation to the good will of tho |ieople whose conven
ience Is subserved.
The Georgian plants Itself u|<on the proposition that always nnd
everywhere power can commend Itself to dependence by kindness and con
sideration. Great corporation* that hold In their hands tho convenience,
the comfort, the health and the safety of the common people, can find a
thousand ways to olillgw aud please the people wtthout necessarily losing
the profits toward which they atrlve.
And we are quite sure that ao fxv from curtailing these dividends, that
the present line ot Improvements, and others that may Ih- subsequently
added, will tend In every way to matsnlfy the revenues which eomo to tho
Georgia Railway and Klectrlc Company.
There Is no conflict between corporations ami the people when corpor
ations arc mindful of the people s rights and the people's Interests.
Once more we assert that the wise corporation Is that which wins tho
public to Its support by kindness rather than that corporation which
drives the public to a reluctant surrender to conditions, which every citi
zen resolves In his heart sooner or laler to resent, and to Improve by
all the mcAUi which ,aw mud government {Hit into bis power.
mate wisdom of kindness and considerstloa.
THE CONSTITUTION'S REPENTANCE
Perhaps it Is Just aa well that The Constitution should lead In the
way of repentance.
The Constitution having sinned most la publishing Ute details of the
Thaw trial, has greater need of repentance.
Our contemporary published In Its lean* of Friday morning detalla of
Evelyn Thaw's testimony which were carefully cat from the telegraphic
report and carefully omitted by The OaqrRian, and we think by The jour
nal on Thursday afternoon.
Besides it Is rather late for repentance.
There la not much now to suppress when the worst baa all been told.
With Evelyn Thaw's testimony practically concluded as It la. the pnfaent
and sensational la about at an end. In the nine columns which The Con
stitution published on Sunday (the day of Its repentance) nnd In the two
columns on Monday (the day after). Including the picture of Mlsa Edna
Goodrich, there la barely the suggestion of the things that ought not to
bo read. -
We are sorry that The Constitution's change of heart did not come
about on last Friday, but we are glad that It has come anyway. To be
consistent now the woes of Evelyn mast melt altogether from Tho Con
stitution's columns. And the whisky nd should run away.
The "thaw" Is late but welcome.
And we do not need to promise our readers that no prurient details ot
this sensational trial will be prlntad In Tho Georgian to the future, as they
have been carefully omitted In the past
STREET OAR SIDES AND NEWSPAPER COLUMNS.
It Is food* for Innocent mirth to note the solemn paragraphs of Im
plied and partially expressed approval with which the esteemed Journal
and the equally esteemed Constitution record the reqneet of tha elty
council that liquor advertisements should be removed from the street cars,
and the announcement of the car officials that they fully Intend to. do
away with the offenaljA signs.
This Is charming , v
By alt means remove the liquor sign* from the street car*, lest the
Innocent eye of youth should be caught and enticed thereby.
But meanwhile keep your ejre on the grand old beacons which
gleam morning and evening In the columns of The Journal and The Con
stitution, pointing tho footstep* ot youth to the red llghta of lTqubf:
To clean up the advertlalng spaces of the street ear, may probably
enlarge the demand for space In the columns of the great and good news
papers which stand for reform.
The situation Is passing from the humorous Into the grotesque.

ANSWERING A LOCAL TUBERCULAR APPREHENSION.
Several citizens of Atlanta are making protest through these col
umns, today against the enlargement of the consumptive ward of the Home
for Incurables, on the ground of Its near proxlmllytd“apubTIc school,
and In an expression of the apprehension of property owners lest the
germs and bacilli of consumption should be disseminated to the detriment
of those iieople who live so nearly adjacent to this Institution.
To these contributors The Georgian desires to say that' the larger
movement which we have In view and which we have advocated from the
first end far beyond any local application, 1* for the creation of a public
sentiment which will produce legislation, state and local, to protect those
near to cases of tuberculosis from the Infection of the atmosphere.
One of the thing* which we hope to acoompllsh Is a rigid registra
tion of consumption and a rigid sanitary law which will require that the
Rputum of consumptives shall be deposited In vessels and consumed by
such chemicals as may be there to destroy the germs.
we urge upon all those people who naturally feel apprehensive along
these lines to Join with Tho Georgian In this larger movement tn whose
behalf a meeting la soon to bo held which will eitabllab that rigid san
itation which will make consumption leu dangerous to people who are
forced to live with It, and to people who are forced to live near It.

NEW STORE
ANNOUNCEMENT
For the convenience of our North Side trade and because our present
quartern at 14 Whitehall street are inadequate to properly handle our rap
idly increasing optical business, we ore opening a branch store at 125
Peachtree street (Candler Building).
Ottr thirty-five years’ experience as Opticians to the Southern people
has enabled us to plan our new testing rooms after the latest and
most approved style, and every new instrument or device that will fUcil-
itate a perfect eye examination is being used, and nothing will be spared
or omitted thnt will add to the completeness and efficiency of our opti
cal service. The arrangement and appointment has not been lost sight of.
and the new testing rooms are a quiet, comfortable and pleasant place to go.
The name "Hawkes” and the “Hawkes Reputation" simply guarantees
to you the beat in every respect, nnd we point with pleasurable pride to the
many thousands of the South’s people who are wearing "Hawkes* glasses”
with the maximum of comfort nnd satisfaction.
We carry everything optical. Wc have every new frame, every , style of
mounting, every kind of guard and every form of lense, including
the new Tories nnd the new Semi-invisible Bifocals.
