THE USE COLLEGE —METAL.
lo President Roosevelt's remarkable letter recently addressed to the
Lee Memorial Committee in Wrehlngtoo. occurs this sentence:
“I hope that yeu will take advantage of the on* hundredth
anniversary of General Lee’* birthday, by appealing to all our
paepl* In every section of tha country, to commemorate hi* Ilf*
and deed*, by the eetabllehment at some representative educa
tional inatltutlon of the South, of a permanent memorial that
will aerv* tha youth of the coming yoara, as he, In tha clealng
year* of hi* life, served thoa* who eo sorely ntodod what h* to
freely gave.'*
It la acareely likely that with auch a suggestion from auch a source
a people loving General La* aa do the people of the South, or that
with a national aplrlt aa broad and appreciative aa hove the noble
people of the North, they wjjl permit tble suggestion to go unanswered In
a substantial way. Surely and certainly It ought to be done, and eurely
and nobly It will be don* by the joint contributions of the American peo
ple North and South.
, When It Is done, the question will arise as to tbs location of this
memorial.
And to thli Inquiry tbare can be but one poaelble answer. The one
college lu the South which will euggeet Itself Immediately to tha mind*
and judgment* of thoee who know the hletory of the greet Virginian, will
be that famous college at Lexington, named flrit for George Wash
ington and afterwards strengthened by the addition of the glorious name
of Lee.
' Washington and Lee University Is the one college whose selection
will meet the Indorsement of every Southern and of every Northern ad
mirer of the great Virginian.
It was here that General Leeioomad tha largest and greatest and
the noblest lu defeat. It was here at thla collage when bis battle*
were over and hie martial year* were done, with hie stainless sword
laid In Its stainless scabbard, ba marched away from war and alrlfe with
out bltteraaaa, and without complaint, and gave himself nobly and glorloua-
ly to the education of Southern youth In character. In courage and In broad
and catholic patriotism.
The last years of General Lee were la many ways bis greatest
years, and these last years were spent as president of Washington and
I-ee University.
Hera, then, let hie'college memorial rise aa an Inspiration to the
youth of tbs Sooth and of the North, to emulate the example of the tall-
•it and tho noblest man who baa lived In the tide of our tremendous
tints.
WOMEN THAT SHAME WOMEN.
As on* reads tho details of the Thaw trial in New York and the
nature of the audiences that fight for entrance and pack the benches and
the aide* of the court room. It ie almost to be regretted that the word
"woman" must oover the whole female aex.
It aeema a abame that thla grand tarm that means so much to good
men should apply to some of those fierce afad eager scavengers of scan-
dsl who fight their way Into the prurient precincts of the Thaw trial.
To Imagine eomn of these women filling a woman's piece In auy real
sphere of life aeeme Impossible. With all traces of femininity wiped
from their faces and especially from their eyes, they taka thalr seats
within the court room. It may be possible that these women, some of
them, are human outside of the court room. Perhaps they know a stir
of affection, sympathy, or pity, hut no man who lookt at them tn their
mad scramble for the best seats tn the court room, can fall to feel a
wave of aorrow.
Not that they are lacking In respectability according to human
standards. Ob, yes, they are "respectable." It atlcks out all over them,
In dress, manner, equipment, and in the homes from which they come.
Itut It Is that most horrible of all forms of respectability that while
leading a good moral life thcmsrlvei, so far as the world knows, yet
hanker after the Immoral and feed upon gossip and prurient scandal.
They scramble for the best scats. According to the "New York pa-
pera they appear keenly Indignant when any decision of the court robs
the witness box of the most harrowing and sensational details. They
each and all appear eager to hear the worst, and abow not the slightest
embarrassment or cover their faces with veils at ghy portion of the
testimony.
We are not disposed to play the Pharisee at this time and in this
section, hut as we read the dally accounts of these thronging battles
or tho female gossips, we cannot help thanking God. not ao much that we
are not aa - other meh are.^hut that our own noble women ara aot at
least aa some other women arc.
ao easily exposed that we wonder at the reckless folly of the charge. But
for thla harsh allegation we should have noted the Issue In one light
touch. .
There they are-the two papers—elda by bide—lit any library or la
either office—The Georgian of Thursday gfternoon and the Constitution of
RMtr morning with tho testimony of Erelya Thaw. Reed U ovsr for your
self, reader of either paper. In the critical stage of the Thaw woman’s testi
mony—and say for yourself, where the bine pencil was used In decency,
and where It hong In the air to give place to the newe. The parallel col
umn would be conclusive and overwhelming. We can't use It here for
that would repeat The Constitution'* offense. Bat the nest time, reader,
you pass the flies, read the record and satisfy yourself a* to the fact*. Or
If you will coma to our flies w* will show you.
The Georgian out out the revolting testimony In the first Instance. We
didn't welt to be converted by n mass meeting In Chattanooga, or a protest
by the Canadian government. We didn't wait until our news enh-mni bad
graUfled prurient curiosity by publishing the worst. We did It In the be
ginning. And we did it without rushing Into a double leaded, doable col
umn to proclaim the virtuous act
Tbs Constitution justifies Its whisky ada by the statement that they
are not In violation of the law. Neither la the publication of the Thaw
testimony.
But we will have to let It go at that
Tha Constitution la a good fallow.
And we are all In good humor, anyway.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY.
On the nineteenth of January tha republic, without regard to (ac
tion. celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of Robert B. Lee.
On this 12th day of February the republic, North and South, may
with unfeigned bearUnees of love and admiration celebrate the nlnety-
elghtb birthday of Abraham Lincoln. *
The martyred President wee as catholic minded a man as ever held
a public station In our public life. With the alngl* exception of Thomas
Jefferson, he loved tble Union aa an abetraotlon as well as any man
that ever lived beneath the flag. To him the Union was everything, and,
by comparison, all other Issues, slavery Included, was aa nothing.
If bo had lived he would have *av«d Um South from half tho hq^rar*
of reconstruction. Even dead his remembered words and hi* never-to-be-
forgotten deed* of kindness and magnanimity, shamed from hie success
ors much that would have been more oppressive.
His spirit and his spoken opinions have stripped the 8onthern race
problem of half Its prejudice and passion, and his great, broad, catholic
aod loving patriotism bava been at last tha foundation upon which w*
have bullded centlmcnt of a reunited country. . •
The South yield! to no section of the Republic In Its comprehensive
appreciation and regard for Abraham Lincoln—first of Kentucky and last
of Illlnol*.
MAOON MUST 00 TO JAMESTOWN.
Our Macon correspondent advises that there li a question as to
whother Macon will make an appropriation to be used lo the erection of
tho Georgia Building at the Jamestown Exposition.
The' further wording of his dispatch Intimates that not only will
Macon probably be absent, but that there may be no exhibit from Geor
gia.
This Is an error. Whatever action Macon may take will not affect
Georgia's exhibit, as that exhibit is well undar way and will be In plaoe;
an exhibit credible to Georgia, In minerals, stona, agriculture, horticul
ture. educational aud historical, the equal of any state In the Union.
The Georgia building will be ready, completed, and a credit to Geor
gia even If Macon declines, but wo will not, until absolutely confirmed,
believe tbat Macon will absent herself as one of the great progressiva
cldcs of Georgia, and refrain from joluing with tha other cities In erect
ing for the Old Mother Georgia her stale building.
Uordele, Valdosta. Ravannah, Atlanta. Columbus ami others have
unanimously answered the call and have subscribed liberally. Our lister
city, Macot, la too progressive not tn bo In the foremost rank, and wa
feel confident will not be wilting lo lie left out of tho sisterhood of Georgia
cities, not alone (or tho great benefit It will be as an advertising medium,
but because Macon, the beautiful Southern City of Georgia, showing so
many heroic Confederate memories, will not refuso tho call of Virginia.
Macon appropriated money for Ht. Louis, beyond the line. With the close
relationship existing between Macon and Richmond, with the tie of blood
that Is toduy staining the soil of the Old Commonwealth of Virginia, with
the duad Georgia Patriots lying In Virginia’s sacred loll, Macon Is not
going to refine the appeal of Virginia. The Georgian knows Macon too
well. The Georgian knows Iter people, and knowing them, believes that
Macon will do her pari in tho erection of the Georgia Building.
Every city that has made an appropriation has made It without on*
dissenting voire. Atlanta, though It has been called by many a cosmopoli
tan and not a representative Southern city, yet when Virginia's appeal
was laid before Atlanta n council there waa not s dissenting voice and by
n rising vole tho appeal wus answered and the appropriation made.
Therefore we know tbat Macon will answer the call as fully and as
heartily as did Atlanta.

our coiilcniiHirarv. The Morning Constitution, now far famed for Its

We are sorry.
Our motive v.aa not an ungenerous one If our roniemporary had

to commend. Hut when our cnmemiiorary purades Its repentance over s
double column In heavy lead* *t the Implied expenuo of Its neighbors, we
are uuiurally moved to at lean the casual observation, that It had eipe-
clal need of repentance.
And the observation Is (minded on the exact facts In the case.
The (.oti&tltutlon hint been by the record the greatest sinner In this
field of pulpiest loll
The most prurient detail* o! the Thaw trial were embodied in the tes
titnotiy of Evelyn Thaw on Thursday Iasi To The Georgian there came
over Its private wire tho full report of this testimony question for ques
tion. and word for word In answer. Over these several columns carefully*
went the blue pencil of the telegraphic editor, and out of the report was
clit and cast away the details that were most objectionable. Many of the
d> tails which The Georgian rigidly excluded were distinctly printed In the
column* of The Constitution on Friday morning.
So that when The Constitution In a temper declare* that the detail*
published In iho*u column* Were the worst published anywhere. It fulls In
to an error worse than the dissemination of prurient scandal, nnd tin error
i tha Editor of The Georgian:
Accept congratulations upon your td-
tioilals on need of hospitals. The
Houth Is short on hospitals. If a poor
man, white or black, breaks hla leg
or needs surgical attention and careful
nursing, where can he go?
And hospitals for care of consump
tives, h* they have In Colorado, how
needful!
1 have often wondered why Carnegie
and John D. Rockefeller nsver entered
this needy field of philanthropy. More
needed now than schools and colleges,
for of colleges we have many; of hos

hope you will pursue the subject edl-

Rockefeller or Carnegie may think of

New York, Feb. 12.—It was plainly

day that the friendly relations be
tween Mr. Tillman sad Mr. Spooner,
which were broken off during the

- Mr. Tillman mad* a seml-humorous
speech on tn* American occupation of
Cuba and referred to General Taft's

h* was In Havana recently aa military
