THE GEORGIAN COMES TO GEORGIA AS THE SUNSHINE A msn msy well bring s horse to the wster. But he cannot make him drink without he will. —Haywood. Georgia’s “Home Coming.” Public Interest Is beginning to concentrate on the Home Coming and Infaro (or former Georgians which will be one of tbe most notable and delightful feature* of tbe atate fair next fall. Beginning on Wednesday, October 10. and contlnu- log for the succeeding three days, there will be a llat of attractions designed especially for the pleasure of the returning sons and daughters of Georgia, together with their descendants, who have wandered off to other states and made their homes. It Is estimated that there are at least 410,000 native Georgians now living in other states of the union, while the descendants of these people run far Into tbe millions. They have made a success In tbe various lines of endeav or which they have undertaken, and wherever they have cast their lot have reflected honor upon the state of their birth and lineage. Many of them have risen to eminence In the counsels' of the nation. In law and medicine and all the professions, In commercial and Industrial life, they have carved a name for themselves In their adopted homes. But each and every one of them I* proud of the old mother atate, which once embraced that Imperial empire extending frtyn the mouth of the Savannah river to the banks of tho Mississippi. In tbe midst of all their busy activities their hearts respond to the name of Georgia and they find themselves Involuntarily repeating: "Where'er I roam, whatever land I see. My heart, untraveled, fondly tnrns to thee.' It waa a happy Inspiration on the part of the manage ment of the state fair to plan a home-coming for these eons and daughters of Georgia. There la pleasure for them In returning to ihe red old hills of Georgia at any time, to mingle with the friends and companions of tbelr youth and to breathe the fragrance of tbe sun and the soil which blessed their childhood, but there la a mani fold charm In returning at a time when they can not only mingle with tho people of Georgia, but with one another. It will be In the nature of a reunion In which the friendships of earlier years will be' renewed on the part of all the wanderers, who could not hope to meet each other under any other circumstances. The program for the three days ol the reunion has been arranged with an eye to the fullest enjoyment and the most appropriate ceremonies. The flrat day will be devoted to registration of visitors, the assignment of badges and Informal meetings. On the second day there will be addresses by distinguished iotas of Georgia resi dent hero now or living In other state*. On the third day there will be an old-fashioned all-day singing, when John Howard Payne's "Home, Sweet Home” will be sung by a chorus of 5,000 voices. Tbe author of this Immortal song once lived In Georgia, and he aent the original man uscript to his sweetheart. In Athena, who treasured It as long aa the lived. This Interweaving of the memory of John Howard Payne, the author of tbe moat touching domestic poem In any language, with the patriotic sentiments which the name of Georgia Inspires, wpnld In Itself render the occasion a memorable one from every point of view. Blanks are being aent out broadcast to Georgians throughout the country whose names and addresses are known, and they are requested to fill them In and there by inform the committee* of their Intention to be pres ent, where they will atop, and other facts necessary for making tbe record complete aa far In advance as possi ble. It Is hopsd that there will be a general response to this appeal and It It hoped at qny rate that the date will be born* In mind and that there will be thousands of Georgians from all parts of the country on the occasion of the great Home Coming. • of Iron and steel ranked first among the selected Indus tries both In IPOS and In 1900. Tbe combined Industry, Including blast furnaces and rolling mills and ateel works, showed an Increase of 4 In the number of establishment* reporting. The capital Increased $18,130,810, or 82.6 per cent, and tbe value of products, 17,294,875, or 41.9 per cent. The number of wage-earnera Increaaed 1,362, or 18.7 per cent, and tbe wages, $993,488, or 40.6 per cent. The remarkable growth of the Industry la emphasised by the fact that In 1905 there was more than nine time* as much capital as In 1880, over live times** many wage-earners, and more than sixteen tiroes the value of product*. There were 19 establishments reporting blast furnaces and 10 reporting rolling mills In 1906, as compared with a like number reporting blast furnaces and 6 reporting rolling mills In 1900. Between 1900 and 1905 for the pig iron branch of the Industry the capital Increased $7,738,694, or 55.8 per cent, and the value of products, $3,158,024, or 23.4 per cent. The number of wage-earnera decreased 80, or 1.6 per cent, but the amount of wages paid Increased $667,191, or 40.3 per cent. Between tbe two censuses the total production of pig iron In the state Increased 258,101 tons, or 22.3 per cent The state gained also In Ita percentage of the total production of pig Iron In the, tJnlted States, the Increase being from 8.3 per cent In 1900 to 8.9 per cent In 1906. In the total production of pig Iron Alabama ranked tenth In 1880, third In 1890, and fourth both In 1900 and In 1905. In the manufacture of foundry pig Iron the state ranked first In 1905 and In 1900; In the production both of basic pig Iron and of forge pig iron, second In 1905 and third In 1900; and In the production of white, mottled and miscellaneous grades, second In 1905 and first In 1900. Steel works and rolling mills Increased In number from 6 in 1900 to 10 In 1906. The capital Increased from $5,- 392,215, or 124.6 per cent; the valuo of products, $4,136, 852, or 104.9 per cent; the number of wage-earnera, 1,432 or 65 per cent, and wages paid, $436,297, or 40.7 per cent. Thp most marked Increase In rolled Iron and steel was In blooms, slabs, billets, tin plate bars, and sheet bars pro duced for sale, which Increased 81,726 tons, or 104.4 per cent, in quantity, nnd $1,021,216, or 119.7 per cent, In value. A large output of steel rails was reported In 1905, but as only two establishments wore engaged In the In' duatry the quantity and value cannot be shown without disclosing Individual operation!. No return was made for steel rails In 1900. Cotton manufacture show* the largest actual Increase In number of wage-earners and In value of products of any Industry In the state. This Industry ranked sec ond In 1905 and third In 1900. There was an Increase of 15 In the number of establishments reporting. The capital Increaaed $13,119,292, or 112.7 per cent; the value of product*, $8,607,195, or 105.6 per cent; the number of wage-warners. 3,148, or 37.8 per cent; and wages paid, $976,702, or 65.$ per cent The proportion of wage-earners In this Industry Increased from 16.8 per cent of the to tal for all Industries hi the state In 1900 to 18.6 per cent In 1905, nnd the wages paid from 9.9 per cent to 11.1 per cent There were 758,087 producing spindles reported In 1906 and 411,338 In 1900, the Increase'being 346,759, or 84.3 per cent. Tho number of looms Increased from ,549 to 16,659, or 83.2 per cent. In addition to this ma chinery In the active mill*, 6,000 producing spindles were reported for mill* that were not In operation. Alabama’s Manufactures. The census bureau ha* recently Issued a report en the manufacture* of our slater state of Alabama for the year 1905. ' * The** figures show that while there has been a de crease of 115 In the number of establishments, the total capital increased $45,216,955, or 76.1 per cent, and the value of products, $37,069,993, or 51.4 per cen; while the average number of wage-earners Increased 9,463, or 18 per cent, and the total wages, $6,966,768, or 46.7 per cent. Tho decrease In number of establishments was duo almost entirely to the large decrease In the number of estab lishments reporting lumber and timber product*. The reports of the twelfth census show 6,608 estab lishments In Alabama, with 62,902 wage-earners, and products valued at $80,741,449. Of these establishments 3,000—employing 62,711 wage-earners and manufacturing product* valued at $72,109,929—are comparable with tho class of establishments Included In the census of 1905, when the number of establishments reported was 1,882, the number of wage-earners, 62,178, and the value of prod ucts, $108,183,922. Of the establishments reported 78 per cent were In the rural districts In 1905 and 81.9 per cent In 1900. The value of the products of rural establishments was 80 per ceat of tbe total for the state In 1905 and 73.6 per cent In 1900. V.lth the exception of a decrease In the num ber of establishments In the rural districts, both urban and rural localities showed increases over 1900. The rural districts showed the larger percentages of Increase In capital, total wages, cost of materials, and value of products, while the urban districts showed greater per centages of Increase In the number of establishments and in the number of wage-earners. The 1,312 establishments reported In 1906 for the 11 selected Industrie* formed 69.7 per cent of the establish ments, represented 86.6 per cent of the capital, employed 87 per cent of (be wage-earners, paid 88.1 per cent of the wages, and reported 86.1 per cent of the value of products for the state. These proportions are about the same as those for 1960. Measured by value of product* the manufacture Relief for the Supreme Court. The governor, !u his recent message to the genera) assembly, called attention to the crowded condition of the supremo court dockets and urged upon that body the ne cessity of taking Immediate steps to provide for a court of appeals, In order tbat the Interests of litigants may not suffer because of the Inability of the Judges of the su preme court to decide the vast number of cases brought to that court within tbe time limited by the constltuUon. At the general election held In October, 1896, the peo ple ratified an amendment to the constltuUon, which In creased the number of Justices from 3 to 6. The cases brought to $he October term, 1890, and the succeeding March terra numbered 778. In the paat ten year* this number has Increased abolit 60 per cent, the cases dpclt- oted at the October term, 1906, and at tho March term of the present year numbering 1,165. This Increase In litigation Is due to the remarkable growth and development of tbe state, especially In the southern portion, which has brought about an Increase of 40 per cent In'the taxable value of property since 1896. The time baa come when It la no longer poselble for the six Justices of the supremo court to dispose of. the cases which come to It from 145 superior courts and 57 city courts. Whon the supreme court was reorganised, there were only 137 superior court* and 13 city courts; within tbe past ten yean, the need of more city courts haa been felt, and their number la being Increased at every seaslon of the legislature. ) The right of appeal should be preserved, as It haa been In the past under our constitution, so that every cltlsen may be assured of hla right to have hla case heard and determined by a court of review. This right Is not accorded to the cltlxon of some of our slater states, where bond Is required before an appeal can be entered, or heavy cost bills are Imposed to deter ther small liti gant from prosecuting his case, or whero only cases In- volvlug a considerable amount may be brought under review.In tbe courts of last resort. The policy of our own statd has never been to Im pose restrictions upon tbe right of appeal which prohibit any but the rich from enjoying the. benefits of a review ing court sustained at the expense of the public. As the governor has well said, Justice should be adminis tered "freely without sale, fully with out any deulal, and speedily without delay," la every case, great or small. The practical question of meeting the emergency by creating another court which will share tho burdens with which the supreme court Is overwhelmed I* now before our general assembly. It can no longer be Ignored. Up on what plan another reviewing court should be organ ised Is a matter of moment, doubtless, but no difference of opinion upon this point should be permitted to delay legislative action. Under the provisions of our present constitution, the supreme court la required to dispose of every case at either the flrat or the second term after It reaches that court, and If for any reason a decision Is not made within the time limited, the Judgment of the trial court must stand affirmed, whether It be right or wrong. It will be but a mero matter of time before many casea taken to the supremo court must share this fate, unless relief Is afforded the justices promptly by decreas ing the number of cases with which they are called on to deal. The point has already been reached where It I* Im possible for tbe court to hear oral arguments In any but a small proportion of the cases which crowd Ita docket*, and litigants have been dented this privilege only because of the Impelling necessity of attempting to deal with all alike and decide their cases before the court loses juris diction to do so under the constitutional provision above referred to.

The Increase In the value of all exports of domestic merchandise was from $1,491,744,841 to 11.717,869.- 395, or 3228,114,754.

With all that Mr. Jerome said In hie Georgln speech In reproof of President Roosevelt for having criticisedl In a message to congress Judge Humphrej ■ decision In the beef trust cases The World is In the fullest accord. It was protesting against Mr. Roosevelts amatlng conduct month* sgo, when Mr. Jerome was so busy trying to thwart the ruling of Judges and prevent the Indictment of George,W. Perkin* that he had no time to protest against pres idential Indiscretion*. . But who Is William Travers Jerome that he presumes to censure Theodore Roosevelt for criticising i Judge? Is It worse for a public official to critic se a specific Judge for a apectfle decision than to make reckless, sweeping, un substantiated assaults upon a Judiciary B Vhe' r Worid has no Intention of apol ogising for Mr. Roosevelt or of condon ing his offense against good taste. But In complaining of Judge Humphrey** decision the president did not hide be hind general statements; he did not as sail the whole federal Judiciary, and he did not Insinuate that Judge Hum phrey was dishonest or corrupt. He complained that the ruling of the court r .li.. .one malrlnv the lau- a child labor bill. We say "at last' because several previous efforts to pro cure such legislation had ended In com plete failure. The bill Is far from being a "radical" anti-child labor measure, according to Illinois standards, for instance. It pro vides that no child under 10 shall be employed In any manufacturing estab lishment; that no child under 12 shall be so employed unless he or she has no parents and no means of support, or unless such child Is the sole support of a widowed mother or an aged and disabled father; that no child under 14 shall be employed at night, and, final ly, that no child under 14 shall be 'given employment unless he or she has attended school for a prescribed period and can read and write. When we consider that even .milder bills than this encountered bitter op position In the past we are not sur prised to hear from Impartial Investi gators of Southern labor conditions that "far too many children are em ployed" In the Southern mills and fac tories. Not only are the anti-child la bor taws that have been enacted In late years In every way Inadequate, but the enforcement of them often leaves much to be desired. Miss Gertrude Beeks, the author of an elaborate report, made for the National Civic Federation, on con ditions In Southern mills, say* that em ployers violate the child labor law be cause labor Is extremely scarce and the majority of the operatives expect their children to work. In several states there are no compulsory education taws, no provision for truant officer*, no fac tory Inspection, no proper registration of births. In these circumstances the mere enactment of a law raising the age of child tabor le only a slight step In the right direction. There Is much work before the en lightened employers and the humani tarians of the Southern state*. Georgia behind nearly all her sitters, and, therefore, even the very moderate measure of reform represented by the taw above summarised Is regarded as notable achievement for her pro gressive and publlc-epirlted cltlsen- ship. We may add that a juvenile court bill Is pending In the Georgia legislature. NEGRO F LITTLE BURGE GIRL Was Crouched at Midnight on Porch of the . House.

If they desire to remain In the service and are willing to work hard enough, they can achieve a commission In time or with less work can become warrant officer*. If they so desire, they can become .experts in a number of trades which offer good wages ashore, when they leave the navy.
