The white men of the South were never more united or more determined than they ore now In the purpose to maintain white supremacy In each and every part of every Southern state, regardless of negro majorities, and the thought of social equal ity la oa Improbable, or even mors so than the Idea of political equality. The two go band In hand, and can not be separated. “2. The negro was nevar more Intent on contesting In every way tbs disposition of the whites. Their teachers, preach ers. politicians, and every organisation that they have formed, one and all, are bent ou compelling a recognition of the whltea by the rights given “to the negroes by the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, and „ _.tween white women Xhd black men. The fact that the negro rav ishes on the white woman, and the white man only lowers himself to gratify lust with a willing negro woigan makes the only difference. * r d. The most Important and burnlni Issue with us Is how to prevent rape, ratu er than avenge It. lynching has failed, we muat try something else.

These will grow small and dis appear one by one, Jf we, aa a people, shall realise the necessity for action, and, however drastic the remedies may be, set about applying them promptly and vigor ously. If we move forward bravely, we that the disease is desperate, and that we must act without further delay.

Race hatred In every form Is grow ing In Intensity with both races. •*4. Lynching for assaults of white wom en by negroes' will continue aa long aa the crime Is committed, and the fact that.

Newport News, Va.. Oct. 8.—The new and powerful armored cruiser North Carolina was successfully launched Saturday In the presence of 10,000 peo ple. The ship's sponsor was Miss Re- bekah Williams Olenn, daughter lOovernor R. B. Olenn, of North Caro lina, who waa present with his staff and an escort of prominent North Car ollnans. Three auch excellent propositions were offered In Rome Saturday for the Seventh congressional district agricul tural school that the governor and trustees postponed Anal action until October, 26, when a meeting will be held In Atlanta. Permanent organization of the dla. trlct trustees was perfected with Hon. W. M. Jones, of Dalton, as chairman, and John W. Bale, of Lafayette, as secretary. Bartow county's proposal was for the gift of Euharlee Institute and 200 acres of land, located seven miles from Car- tersvflle. The buildings are valued at 825.000 and the lands at <5,000. Dif ficulties arose, however, over the fact that the land was In three disconnect ed lots, and the purpose is to have the property In one continuous body. It wa* proposed, however, to amend the bid ao as to meet this objection. Cobb county offered 200 acres of land, six mites from Marietta and two miles from Powder Springs, with sta tions on both the Southern and Sea board. In addition to the land <8,600 caah was offered, with assurances that If two weeks more waa allowed that It could be made <12,000.

E ORGANI POLITICAL CLUB Typos and Other Trades men to Take an Active Hand in Politics^ In the future the organize)] working men of Atlanta propose to take a hand In. political matters of the city, county and state governments. Following the regular monthly meeting of {he union Sunday afternoon, about one hundred of the best known printers of the city set In motion a workingman's politi cal club. Temporary organization was perfect ed by the election of J. J. Hobby as chairman, and Earle E. Griggs as sec retary. Though Inaugurated by the typos,, It will by no means be confined to that profession, nor was It formed to foist the particular ambition of any man or men. Earle Griggs said that It was time working men broke away from blind adherence to old political faiths, and that a spirit of self-help should move and actuate the men of all trades. Personal selfishness should actuate no one, but that It should be the selfish ness only of the organised workingman and his allied Interests. A committee of flfteeit was author ized to formulate rules and regulations for the- government of the working man's political club. None but bona flde workingmen, with active member ship and working at their trade, shall be eligible to membership In the club. OIG AUDITORIUM .

George Ade's musical satire, "The Sultan of Sulu," which comes tonight and Tuesday to the Grand, has some thing besides the wit of Ita lines to commend it. There Is a whole lot of funny material that has been Intrusted to people clever enough to bring the humor out, and there la delightfully catphy music and singers of ability to sing it. These are the real reasons why "The Sultan of Sulu" Is a lasting suc cess, although the artistic scenery and oriental costumes play no small part In the hit of the operetta. George Ade has made for himself a place In the annals of American enter tainment that Is essentially his own. The successful things he has written demonstrate what Is the Ade niche In the American theater. It Is hla facul ty of writing a simple, lucid and well- defined story nnd making It the thread upon which to auspend keen comedy and comedy characters that has con tributed largely to his success. This sort of thing la peculiarly Ade's work. •'The Sultan of Sulu" Is his flrst and probably most successful work. The story of the conquest and Americaniza tion of the oriental potentate was much more of a story than we had been wont to find In our musical comedy. As a result It Is still popular after four years and hid* fair to continue successfully for several season* to come. There will be a matinee Tuesday. At th* Bijou. "Banker* and Brokors” Is the title of the new musical comedy In which Yorke and Adams will make their aec- ond annual appearance at the Bijou Monday night and all the week, and Just at this time of "seething” finance Is an appropriate and catchy title. It Is said to be one of the greatest hits of all the laugh-making plays and seems to he produced on exceptionally good principles. Many musical numbers and special ties are Introduced and the action and "go" of the piece are said to be rapid and artistic. Two magnificent stage settings are displayed, and In numbers and surroundings the company Is with out a peer In all the realm of musical comedy. The song hits, of which there arc twenty, Include such well-known New York successes as “Just, a Little Fond Affection," "Underneath a Para sol," "Mary of the Prairie," "Mooning Time," "Egyptian Maid," "Would You Leave Your Happy Home for Me?" “The Pen Is Mightier Than the Sword,” OPEN IN ATLANTA American Bottlers and Mil) Men to Hold Important Sessions. Atlanta will have two more big con- ventlohs this week. . Following the splendid meeting last week of the National Association of Retail Druggists, the American Dot- tiers' Protective Association and tht Georgia and Florida Saw Mill Assocla. tlon both convene here Tuesday. From .1,000 to 1,500 bottlers are ex pected to attend the annual convention, which will be In session In the ball room of the Kimball from Tuesday to Thursday of this week. This Is th* most Important organlza- tlon of 1th kind In the country, and embraces a membership of over 2,000 In every section of the country. Aelile from the discussion of Important mat- ters looking to the betterment of th« trade, manj£ eoclal affairs have been arranged for the visitors. The local committee is composed of Lee Hagan, James B. Turnef, Frank Lowensteln, Thomas H. Austin, Porter Langston, >A. Montgomery and Donald A. Loyless. Mr. Loyless Is secretary of the Georgia Bottlers' Protective As sociation, and for eeveral weeks has been Indefatigable In his efforts to per fect arrangements. One social feature will be a barbecue to the delegates at Ponce DeLeon. George R. Hugo Is president of the national organization, John A. Blnndell, vice president, and Richard E, Schader. secretary. The Georgia bottlers win hold their annual session In the Aragon Hotel Thursday at 10 o'clock. Julius King Is president. While not large In .numbers, the Oeor- gin-Florida Saw Mill Association meetln- will be an Important one. In connection jvith this meeting the North . Carolina Pine Association and the Ala bama Lumber Association will meet. Their sessions will deal with matters of. importance to th* prices, handling and general condition of the lumber business.
