The Carriage Builders' National Association holds this Twentieth Century city na Its proud and happy hoat today. And the carriage builders are memorable not only In their coming and in themselves, but In the number and the average quality which combine to make them the greatest convention that Atlanta haa ever known. Not until wo bring hero the Democratic national con vention of 1908 or 1912, will Atlanta have anything to compare in alie and scope with this great organisation. Men of wealth, men of Influence, men of aplendld energy and of large executive ability, almost every one or them. they know that Atlanta is glad to look upon them and that Atlanta la proud to reflect that she had drawing power within her history and attractlona to bring here the aseembly In annual session. Beyond the pleasure and the honor of entertaining a body of thia tlxe it comes most happily to emphasise to Atlanta the need of our two great auditoriums that are going up. The fact that we are compelled to send these men to the crude and imperfect buildings of the exposition at Plodmont Park, the fact that we are forced to scatter their public meetings and their enter tainments in a dosen different places, all bring Atlanta faca to face with a sense of mortification and a resolute determination to provide against such n contingency in the future. We most cordially request of our welcome and dis tinguished guests that they will keep in mind the fact that Atlanta Is celebrating their presence and their In complete entertainment today by finishing up with a mar velously sustained subscription list to our great audi torium armory to take royal care of them when they come again. We beg these gentlemen to remember that when they come again, as we trust they will come, they ■hall have ample apace for their ever-increasing num bers, and we ask them to reciprocate any alight courtesy which Atlanta may abow them during their present ses sion, by telling their friend; at homo and elsewhere that Atlanta I* preparing In a great auditorium equipment to take Its place with tha two or throe really great convention cities of the republic. The carriage builders with all their heartiness, help fulness, wealth and wisdom, are heartily welcome to At lanta’s hogpltailty. We expect to enjoy them and trust they will enjoy their stay In Atlanta. We thill derive great proflt and pleasure from the lessons which their assembly teaches, and If we shall be able to liluatrate to them during their preaence here, the public spirit and the enterprise, that aces emergencies and grapples with them strongly and effectively, aa Atlanta la do ing now, we ahall each have occasion to remember this visit to Atlanta. command a following numbering hundreds of thou sands. "Incidentally we have lost a mother and two sweet girls through the Slocum disaster, which ca lamity can bo traced back directly to the greed of corporate interests just as tho non-punishment of the men directly and Indirectly responsible for the holo caust can be traced back to various sinister influ ences. "We all shall punish the guilty next election day. CHARLES H. BRANDT. "New York. October 16, 1906.” There are thousand* of honest men like the young unlverilty man, who care nothing for the foolish crit- icleme with which wounded politicians and jealous news papers lampoon the editor of The New York American, but who have learned to look on William R.

We quote here the closing paragraph of The News and -Courier's excellent editorial on thla line: "But," replies tome carper, "this la .melodrama, not politics. Thla man haa a ‘private grief,' hla words are to he discounted by It.” 8o, too, had "Mac duff, the Thane of Fife," when hla poor country al most afraid to know Itaelf,” and all htk "pretty ones.” "all my pretty ones and their dam at one fell swoop" were dead, he cried: ’ "But, gentle Heavens. Cut short all Intermission; front to front Bring thou this fiend of Scotland and myself; Within my sword's length set him; If he 'scape, Heaven forgive him too!" Who But Hcarst? The Hon. Henry Watterson, who Is nothing If not illogical, wrlUng of the New Yqrk election In The Courier- Journal, aaya: "That the hlgh-jlnks of the hlgh-flnanciers should provoke reaction, goea without laying. Those of them who ore not the merest fools for luck, are mainly rogues Incarnate and remorseless—crime-clad, top-heavy and money-mad—knowing nothing, and caring less, for a public .opinion degraded by com- i merclaltxed politicians in both parties and corpora tion newspapers, differing from the Hearat papers oaly In the daftness of their touch and the subtlety of their Influence. They fency they own the earth. The Brand Dukes of Fftissla are scarcely more In sensate. All that the beat of them know Is how to pile up money by devious means. They have sown the wind and In the end will surely reap the whirl wind. Bet, why through Hearit?" And with who save Hearat could the people oppose this gang? Who else haa fought these "Incarnate and remorseless rogues" save lfearst? Who elae haa exposed them, restrained them, enjoined • them from their Iniquities end tyrannies? Who but Hearst haa ever dared to tnove against them, and yrho but Hearat haa ever been able to prevail against them? Who of all men do these "crime-clad, top-heavy, money-mad" fear as (hey fear Meant, and who of all the doubting, hesitating friends of the common people has one-half the chance to win against the money-mob aa Hearst has? “With Hearst," says The Charleston News and Cour ier, "because Hearst Is the handiest weapon. Hearat Is the nearest brick-bat. When the danger la Imminent, does one stop to measure the length of foils with bri gands?” Even If Hearst shared what the terror-stricken gratt ers have painted him, how trifling a danger Is he, when the people are faced by "rogues Incarnate and remorseless—crime-clad,” etc. Taking The Courier-Jour nal'* own portrait of the conditions.

If the New York people can find a leader of resourceful power, with a record of magnificent achievement and of magnificent consistency behind him. We agree with our Charleston contemporary that one of the moat powerful "Hearst campaign documents” that haa appeared la the following letter printed by The New York Times: "The undersigned Is a graduate of ColumbAand ought to vote fof the candidate to whom our pres ident has sent a letter of Indorsement, but since I am from the east side, the son of a wage earner, I am acquainted with facta tn the life around ua which make It impossible for me to indorse Mr. Hughes, or, which Is the same, the corporate Interests, who so abuse their power that a man like Hearst can The Two Ailditoriums. Bide by side with the grgat city auditorium which Is mounting now with marvelous strides to a certainty, there Is going up. Just as surely, the great auditorium of the Baptist Tabernacle. There Is no conflict between those great enterprise*. Dr. Broughton's proposition was the pioneer one. His en terprise was started many months ago and 2100,000 Is now In hand to see It safely to a conclusion. He haa a splendid lot—perhaps the best and most convenient that Is now available In the city of Atlanta. He haa a vast and comprehensive experience In auditoriums, hcvtng spoken In most of the great halls of England and of America. He has given year* of study to the formation of plana both of construction and of acoustics and of comfortable and luxurious equipment. We may be sure that Dr. Broughton's Tabernacle will grow and that it will grow to be a thing of beauty and an ornament to Atlanta. Finding Its mission In the great religious and moral meetings with which Atlanta h Enlivened and In structed many times a year, and in the great 8unday services of the Tabernacle, It will fill a purpose which will be both of profit and of adornment to Atlanta. It deserves the richest and heartiest cooperation of the Atlanta people. The great Auditorium Armory It now an assured and glorious fact—$79,000 raised In less than seven minutes tolls the story of Atlanta’s faith and the practi cal foundation upon which It la founded. The city will back the enterprise and It will-be built In the end by the city's money. It will represent the best and highest type of convention convenience'and construction In America. It will be finished, we trust, tithin’ the next twelve month*, and when It Is thrown open to the world we shall be ready In royal'hospitality and ample equipment to entertain In their deliberations the commercial, po litical and religious assemblies of the republic. well” In bis proposition to take the Idle coons to Panama. We wish well to all who co-operate with him. and we shall be especially pleased If this consummation devout ly to be wished is to be brought to pass not only practi cally but speedily. Any stroke of genius that can put the Idle negroes of the South to work-will go further than any other rem edy toward the solving of the perpetual problem which their presence makes. The Business Men’s “Exchange.” The business men of Atlanta wero entertained at a Dutch supper last night by George W. Parrott. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss plans by which the business Interests of Atlanta will be able to protect themselves after January 1, when the Boykin anti-bucket shop bill goes Into effect. All wire houses will be closed up on January 1, leav ing Atlanta's merchants and business men without Infor mation of a character to be of benefit as compared with the complete and continuous market quotations, statis tics and ngws from the.world's great money centers that TUESDAY, OCTOBER SI. 1904 have been laid at their doors at a nominal. If at any, cost at all for years past. A few of the foremost men In the cotton, grain, flour, corn anfl provisions trade and capitalists are wak ing to the fact that on the closing of these wirehouses they must of necessity for a greater portion of the day work entirely In the dark as to what Is happening In the centers that make prices and compile statistics. ** The cotton trade will bo the greatest sufferer, In that It will be Impossible to keep track of the Influences— statistics, foreign and domestlo—state of the trade In all civilised countries—that govern prices. Thla cotton exchange should be organised on a high plane and aa it Is to be worked under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce, it la certain that It will be composed of representative business men only. In this connection The Georgian would suggest that It look carefully Into the standing of the people whom they look t6 for a wire. See that responsible firms In the different markets—New York, New Orleans and Chi cago—are bona fide members of the different exchanges. Otherwise gambling may be the chief aim of the party furnishing the wire. MEN HALF CHAZED PICKED UP AT SEA One-Third Sit, Two-Thirds Stand—All Pay. A West End atreet car yesterday afternoon collected by the register 78 farea. It gave In return 24 teats. That is, 21 people who had paid 6 cents, had seats In tho cflr while 64 people packed the aisles and swung by the straps and stood on the platforms. A river car on yesterday collected 110 farea and gave In return 48 seats. Slxty-two people didn’t have seats. It Is frequently the case that a College Park car col lects 120 fares and gives 60 seats. Thla la more fre quently than otherwise about the hour of 6 p. m. This la the way we travel In this twentieth century city. Business men and working women going home ought to be entitled to something better In a city which they serve, whose taxes they pay, whose prosperity they promote and whose street car system they splendidly sup. port. Wo are helping to make the street car ayatem rich, but the street car ayatem la putting itself to no especial trouble to make us comfortable. Tho street car system complains that there are aotno Inconveniences In the way of putting on more car* or of Increasing the schedules. Because of these difficulties the street car magnates have concluded to do nothing. Meanwhile 64 people stand while 24 people alt down; 62 people stand while 48 people alt In tho outgoing cart— but all pay farea. We are a patient people and we submit with great tranquillity to anything that this big corporation choose* to put upon us. We growl a little when our toes are ground In the alslei and our bodies are jammed agalnat the seats and when our ears are froxen on the platforms. "But we don't do anything much but growl. We just go ahead and let the big bloated, wealthy corporation have Its will. Haa It ever occurred to you people who suffer these Inconveniences that a little piece of white paper put Into your hands at certain periodical Intervals has a very per- auaalvo Influence upon these high and mighty gentlemen who run the atreet car system of Atlanta? Suppose you give this matter some consideration. And suppose when the time cornea for the next distribution of these little pieces of white paper which we call the ballot, that you make them messages to the city counctlmen which will bear your deep deaire for some much needed and thoroughly reasonable reforms In the street car system of Atlanta. If you do not care to do this, of course you have a perfect right to ride as Inconveniently or to stand aa uncomfortably aa you please. Compelling the Idle Negroes to Work. We congratulate The Constitution upon the headline In Iti Tuesday's paper which reads as follow*: “The South’s Idle Negroes May He Made to Work on the Panama Canal.” That wholesome dream may not be realised, but It, It ripe In poaalbilitlea. and when appearing upon the front page of a paper In big headlines, It will carry much warning and suggestion to the laxy and Idle vagabond* of the negro race.

Nelson and Charles Olsen, survivors from house boat No. 4, on the Florida East Coast railroad, that was blown to sea and wrecked by the hurricane that visited the coast of Cuba on October 8, were landed tn this egy by the Mallory liner Colorado, and sent to Jacksonville. They report 104 men drowned from this boat. The men were picked up at 6 o'clock on Friday morning last, 90 miles off Key West, Fla. A small boat was put out from the Colorado and the half-starved and half-erased men were taken on board. They were almost nude, their clothing having been washed off them. The men eay that had they not been rescued at this time they could not have lasted two hours longer. Nelson said the storm continued until late Thursday night, and the time they spent on the raft had almost unseated their reason, so Intense was the suffer ing. SUIT IS STARTED FOB _$1,000,000 Certificate Holders Want a “Safety Fund” Distrib uted by Receiver.

MISTAKEN FOR THIEF, IS STABBED BY FRIEND [NOOKS AND CORNERS OF AMERICAN HISTORY By REV. THOMAS B. GREGO.w. ie**tt*t*t*t**i iMMimiMHlMlWMHl 1 GOSSIP! COLIQNY AND THE HOGUENOTS. Of Admiral Collgny history declares | ment William Pitt said: that “In all the qualltlqp of mind and "I have read Thucydides and have character that constitute true human ••“died and admired the master states greatness he was without a peer. 1 An Intellectual giant, clean of life, tender hearted as a little child, and In every crisis of life as brave ae a lion, Collgny was one of the world’s most remarkable men. This great and good man may be termed the "Father of the Huguenots” —the body of men who have written their names large In the hletory of our country. When, In 1686, old Louis the Four teenth revoked the Edict of Nantes, he did the worst possible thing for his country. The Revocation dealt France the blow from which It has never re covered, while at the same time It proved to be a great blessing to Eng land, Holland and, later on, to the United States of America. It Is said that the pen-stroke by which Louis effectuated the Revoca tion of the Edict cost him, practically at once, a million of his finest sub jects. * , The fleeing Frenchmen went largely to England and Holland. In the struggle between William III and James II (whose cause Louis so ardently espoused). It was a Huguenot, Schomberg, that turned the tide against James and France.

Assisted by Huguenot genius and valor, the English won out In the great fight, and the children of the men who helped to beat down the French power In America were on hand to assist In the establishment and expansion of the glorious republic. of the world, but I must declare that for solidity, force, sagacity and wisdom of conclusion under difficult circum stances no nation or body of men stands In advance of the general con gress of Philadelphia. All attempts to Impose despotism upon such men will be ruin. We shall be forced ultimately to retract. Let us retract while we can. not when we must.” Of the body thus complimented In such glowing terms by the illustrious Pitt, the Huguenots may be said to have been the Inspiring spirits. Of the Philadelphia congress a Huguenot was the first president. O? its seven (residents three were Huguenots— Laurens, Jay and Boudlnot. In our entlfe history there are no grander namee than those of Henry Laurens, John Jay, Albert Gallatin and Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton was not a full-blooded Huguenot, but It was from the breast of a full-blooded Huguenot mother tht he drefv his life. It was a Huguenot who built and gave 'to Boston and to the nation the ‘Cradle of Liberty"—Faneuil Hall. It was a Huguenot who drew up the terms of the surrender of Yorktown*— John Laurens, the son of the first pres ident of the coldnlal congress. It was a Huguenot who gave us Bowdoln College, a Huguenot who built .From his place In.the British parlla- New York, Oct. 21.—Believing each other to be a burglar. Adolph Egerla and Mlcbael Karcher, of No. 166 Stan hope etreet, Williamsburg, grappled In the hall at their home and the latter was stabbed three times. ’Why, It Is Mike,” said Egerla, after coming from a room with a light.to look at the burglar he supposed he had killed. “I thought you were a bur glar.” And I thought the same of you." ■aid Karcher. Egerla summoned Dr. Houseman, of the German hospital, who dressed Mar cher's wounds, which are considered serious. Egerla explained that, hearing a nolee In the hallway, he thought It was made by burglars, and grappled In the dark, when the stabbing was done. Police man Quinn, who made the arrest, sug gested that It was not wise to Jump at conclusions. CIVILIZED CHINK COMMITS SUICIDE Salem, Maes., Oct. 21.—Joseph Ah Chung, brought here .45 yesre ago by Joseph Salford, of Salem, and who was educated In the public schools,, married a white woman and had twelve children bom to him, committed suicide by hanging himself to a tree. The Bayards of Delaware, the Du rands, the Bqthunes, the De Lanceys, the Edwardses, the Vincents, the Gar- fields, are all of Huguenot blood. In hie article entitled "The Distri bution of Ability In America,” Lodge says: “I believe that In proportion to their numbers the Huguenots produced and gave to the American republic more men of ability than any other race." Yes, It was a bad day for France when old King I.ouls signed that edict of Revocation, but a glorious day It was for the rest of the dorld—rape-fgh^Wd^addlng-tirart *>he’thought* hr daily for the Vnlted States of America. ••• - T With only one week left under the law to register with the,secretary of atate corporation returns are coming In at the rate of 200 to 300 a day. The number registered to date In the office of the secretary of state Is near 2,000, and by November 1 the number Is expected to exceed 2,000. Just what course Secretary Cook will take to .bring (he negligent corporations the mark remains to be seen. The possibility of escape for any Is remote, elnce the necessary data can be secured through the clerks of court In the various counties. It Is within the province of the secretary to assess a fine of ISO on each negligent corpo ration. THE BE8T OF ALL.
