Forty Practical Scientists Are Graduated From the Lo cal School. The graduating exercises of the Georgia School of Technology, held at the Bijou theater Thursday night, were the most brilliant In the history of the institution. With one exception, the • lass of 1806 was the largest that had left the school. Thirty-nine men -re ceived their diplomas, and President Mntheson : announced M. It Maclean had completed the prescribed course, with the .exception. <jf some »hop time, nnd that when thle was made up hie diploma would be granted him and hit name enrolled with the membera of hie class. Dean James E. Russell, as the princi pal speaker of the evening, delivered a masterly address on “The Opportuni ties and Responelbllltes of Profeaelonal Services,” which was carefully listened to and appreciated by the large au dience present. In the beginning he referred to three reasons which had been given by expert atudenta of the subject of why America had succeeded so far In advance of the rest of tha world In the race for commercial su premacy, when an Engltsl that his countrymen pay wages whsre Americana pay a half dol lar. The reasons glvsn by the various experts were: (1) A golden opportunity In a new country marvelously rich In natural resources; (3) Ihe disposition of the average American to take chances, to play the game (o the end, w hatever the odds, and (I) professional tralnlpg directed (^practical ends. He cited the Instance of Denmark, which has made tremendous Industrial strides toward" Industrial development <)living the last thirty yean, and stated thnt to a very large degree It was due to the universal training as experts which Is a part of the educational sys tem of the nation. This, he said, was w hat would make the South great, and the men who went forth from the Tech nological school were trained so, and were expected to take their part In the development of the eectlon. The Oath of Hippocrates. In conclusion, he recited to them the oath of Hippocrates, which for centu rips has been administered to physi cians and surgeons who ere graduat ing. While no such rlgld oath of alle giance to his profession and the uplift of his fellow man was required of Ihe engineer, still he must realise that the truest success was foundsd on aervlca to his fellow man. Hon. John Temple Graves waa then Introduced by President Mathsson. He Mated that he had seen In the papers of the city that the theses of the entire graduating clasa were to be read, and In looking over the titles he had • very reason to be profoundly grateful • hat this portion of the program had been omitted. Expressing his entire Ig norance but high appreciation of the science of mathematics, he delivered to Robert Allan Anderson the medal of fered by Colonel Walter P. Andrews for the beet average during hie entire course In pure mathematics. The other medal offered waa by the New England Cotton Manufacturers’ Association for the best thesis In textile engineering, and was won by iff. Wiley Nesbit BagweU. George Foster Peabody Speaks. President Matheson then Introduced Hon. oeorge Foster Peabody; who made a short address on the opportunities which await the technically trained man. such aa those who received their diplomas from the Tech. He expressed hie pleasure over the election or Chan- < ellor Barrow and of President Mathe son. and stated that with the assuming of control by these two men of the largest educational Institutions of the state he hoped to see developed a stronger feeling of fellowship In the oneness of their work. Chancellor Barrow was called upon by President Matheson for a few words, and asked the privilege of speaking them to the members of the graduating class. He urged upon them 'he absolute necessity of unselfishness f they would succeed, and then quoted to them a letter which he resolved from Dr. LeRoy Brown, when he was about to take his first position after graduation. It had only one sentence ful that your services cannot be dls- S insed with, and your rise la certain." e quoted Bismarck’s famous state ment: “We Serbians fear Sod and nothing else," and he urged It upon every man there to fear God and. nothing slse, and they would always And Him ready In time of need. Hon. N. E. Harris, the chairman of the board of trustees, then made a short address also to the members of the graduating class as has been the cus tom’ for the past seventeen years. Mr. Harris gave the boys a few parting words of advice, telling them that the school expected their help In the fu ture to work towards Its greater growth. Baccalaureate Address. The baccalaureate address waa de livered by President Matheson. He held up to the members of the gradu ating close the high position which they will hold In the Industrial devel opment of the South, and the neces sity for earnest and eonsclsntlous ef fort. He spoke of the need of men to develop the mineral resources of the atate, stating that the school had had many calls for mining experts which It had been unable to All, and, aa a consequence there had been added to the courses already offered by the school,, that of mining engineering, and predicted a bright future for those who shall take up' this branch.

The convention Indorsed the beer union, and recommended that no beer be bought by the membera that was not brewed by union men.

Go, June 32.—The Federation of Labor convention adopted a resolution presented yesterday morning by Mr. H. C. Billings, or better known among the union people aa “Uncle Josh,” praising Hon. W. R. Meant for hie kind deed* toward the laboring people of the United States. The resolution was received with enthusiasm, and applause lasted for shout, thirty seconds after It was read. Resolutions presented by H. C. Billings were os follows: "Whereas, In the present state of affairs as they exist In this coun try, where organised labor gets Its dally rebuffs from the money power, and kindred associates, It la pleasing to note that when an InAuentlal public-spirited person comas to the support of the tollers of the land we ran but sound hie praises from ocean to ocean, and from the lakes of tho North to the gulf of the South.

GRESHAM-ASHFORD SHOE CO. 93 PEACHTREE STREET. IV. G. SUTL1VE A NS WEES j G B. WHATLEY IN BEHALF OF PLEASANT A. STOVALL To the Editor of The Georgian: In the absence from Ihs city of Col onel Pleasant A. Stovall, editor and owner of The Savannah Press, I cnnrtot alt Idly by and see him attached as he has besn In your columns by Mr. G. n. Whsllay, without raising my voles In his defence. This letter Is being writ ten entirely without Mr. Stovall's knowledge and before he has seen the letter of Mr. Whatley. Were he within the bounds of the state nt this time, or so class to Savannah that he could see Ihe card.of the Savannah-Mrldrlm at torney nnd answer It himself, there would he no need of my making an ef fort In that'direction. With the queffllon of Vole buying In the last election and with tho editorial attacks of the press of the stats upon the politicians of Chatham county, I have little to do. I do object, however, to the term used by Mr. Whatley when he says the "The Savannah Press, through lie hired correspondents,” sent broadcast over Ihe stale the stories of corruption In the primary. This la In n measure nn attack upon me, ns I was the only mon In The Savannah Press office who sent to out-qf-tnwn news papers any account of votes being pur chased. • It woe done without consulta tion with Mr, Stovall and nulelj through n sense of duty. I believes thnt the papers who trust me to send them the news from Savannah should haye a correct statement as to the practice of both sides In tha purchase of voles end tried lo perform this ser vice. Mr. Whatley's peculiar connec tion with “The Searchlight," Ihe organ of Ihe People's.Democratic Lessor. 1 fear, haii dimmed hie famine appreciation of the fart that a msn ran be connected with n newspaper und have convictions of hie own. Mr. Whnttey, In hie card, uses this lanftiA(e: ».,*.*• “Unfortunately, Mr. Stovall, the edl lor of The Press, and tha CltJsens' Club rundldnto for stats ‘senator, went down with his tlrkel. Chaffing under Ills humiliating defeat, It was .only natural that ,his paper, through Its orps ■ n( correspondents, should sand out this charge of buying and eelllm votes. Everybody well (nows Ihst If the (’aliens' Club ticket end Mr. Sto vall had won, there would have been no report of vote-buying anil selling, or any other Irregularity, no matter haw flagrantly and unblushlngly It miy have been rommltted.’*, No greater slander wss ever penned Mr. Whatley, If he knows Colonel Pleaaant A. Htovall even filthily, mutt lie aware that there Is not In Georgia a man of n higher sens# of honor. To UHs such arguments as this In defend Ing Ihe buying or voles or In refute tlon of the statement that not as many votes wars bought as In former elec Hons, Is to stoop to Ihs argument of the petty lawyer, anil those acquainted with Mr. Whatley’s lafge practice and extensive business .at the Savannah bar must express surprise that ha would piers himself In this attliude. The editorial In The Savannah Press . illlng attention to rha btij' did not excuse either aide. It was an appeal for better things In the future. It called attention to Ihs many broad sides the fair name of the county had received through tbe prate of Ihe stats, and asked for a campaign pitched upon higher plain In Ihe future. In answer to this Mr. Whatley, suppoa Ing for a party of reformers, assails the author of the editorial aa one who Insincere. Colonel Stovsll le probably personally known to more Georgians than any man of his age In the etate. Hie friendships are many. He haa lived In three cltlee of the etate, and I defy Mr. Whatley or any other msn to point to ns dishonorable set la hla career. ■ lie aa ever pitched hla life upon a high plans. An association of fifteen years with him hsa taught ms to trust him Implicitly. I have often been struck by his great distress of mind when he feared that he had unwittingly done a man a wrong. Hie newspaper haa been clean and Ita columnt have been open to any man of any party and. of any color who had anything to say that was of Interest to the public, and was the same time clehn, elevating and uplifting. His political opponents have been forced In Ihe campaign just ended to admit that his newspaper Wes the only one In which they could get what they termed a “square dial." It Is In deed trying to have a man of thle stamp and caliber traduced by the hired editor" (to borrow Mr. What- y’s own phrase) of a political organ. Mr. Whatley ehowe little acquaint ance with the conduct of elections In the past when he ssye that rote-buytnr In the primary of June 12 wae not car- ried on to a greater extent than before. There has never been an election In this county during the time that I have been connected with Savannah news- papere where bidders stood upon street corners bartering for votes as curb brokers do tor stocks. The tickets that ware paid for were so plentiful that one gentleman who once occupied tt judicial position In Ihe city, I am In formed, voted one of the ballots strike Ingly marked on the back, and did not even etop to tear off the coupon which attached nnd properly punched, showed how much the voter was to gel for casting It. Of course, I do not Intend, to say III it lo- mi, i1,1 to . nn this vote, but evidently he had a supply of this kind on hand and cast It without destroying the evidon. Hmt it wns of lhat class. One of the most ustnund- Ing things In connection with the eiec-_ Hon wns the display a mnn who holds’ it colonel’s commission In Hie state mil itary service wns mailing of himself nnd an entire set of marked ballots In. the rnurt-housa during the counting of Hie votes. He was saving this set mnrked nn the berk with various lurid devices ns a souvenir of the occasion. There were fully two hundred young men who got their first Insight Into imlltlrs In this campaign. They havo made a beginning that will aland out In their memory for years to corns If they have any consciences and men of mature years like Mr. Whatley, mem bers of either faction, who either sanc tioned such work or entered Into It as a matter of "necessity" have upon their heads the eln of debauching the, minds of theso young men ns to the proper way to win tin election. Mr. Whatley Is a much older mart than I, and I should have hesitated to have replied to hint had I not been Impelled to speak In defense of one whom L know and whom Mr. Whatley should, know from hla acquaintance with him. Is above reproach. No good rltlxsn of Georgia helleves that "Pleas Stovall” took part In the buying of votea, and, after nil. that Is the only class whose opinion Is worth anything. W. O. 8UTUVK.
