The Western and Atlantic railroad of the atat* of Georgia la destined, In the opinion of The Georgian, to play a big part in the future of thin atate, and, In all probability, in the future of the entire country. In laying thla we aaaume that the road lx going to be extended to the aeacoaaL And tho assumption ia not by any means a rath one. When ‘HddflOf Alexander started out a few years ago with the announced purpose to force that subject upon the attention of the, state, casual obaerrers were Inclined to think that he had tak en a big contract on hla hands, and experienced politi cians were disposed to regard the proposition in a spirit of good humored levity.- But Mf. Alexander hsd evidently planned hit cam paign with a pretty fair accounting for the tendencies •f the human mind. Ha publicly declared his absolute conviction that the road would be built. He said publicly that the only thing necessary to be done was to get people to talking about It, that the thing, being In Itself Inher ently a wise and proper thing to do, would furnish Its own argument as toon as people began to discuss u, and that thereafter it would become in Increasing degree a popular demand. Apparently tbe prediction la now well on IU way to ward fulfillment, and if one may Judge from the ut- terances of the preaa and the casual remarks of Indi viduals, public sentiment is crystallising now with mar- vslous rapidity in favor of tbe extension. The methods adopted by the advocate of the work were simple. He first set to work to solidify the sent!- ment of one county In favor of tbe proposition. As »oon as DeKalb county had lined up In solid phalanx, he delivered addresaea In a number of cltlea and towns scattered through the state, each of which became a center of discussion. from which the Idea radiated In widening circles. Thereafter the discussion of the matter before the legislature and In the preis made It an object of vision all over the state. The effort In the last legislature, first to sell the present road, and afterward# to execute a new lease on It, concentrated and solidified attention, and nat urally the advocates of extension became the oarnest lead* era of-opposition to the other schemes. Their defeat has put behind the extension proposal an organlted support. The Georgian takes tb# same view as to the ultimate outcome that wae expressed by the author of the propo sition and the logic of It may be expressed In a syllo- *gtsm like this: * First, Whatever is wise and prudent to do In public affairs will sooner or later be done If It once comes to be seriously considered by a tree electorate. 8<cond, It is wise and prudent to extend the state road to the sea and the subject is now being seriously considered by a free electorate. Therefore the state road will sooner or later be ex' tended. There Is no doubt In the world about the correctness of this logic. Pessimists and doubters will and do ques tion tbs soundness of the first premise, and It is easy enough to point out many wise and prudent things which •re not done though earnestly urged. The fallacy, bow. aver, in comparing these things with the proposition under discussion lies in the fact that, no matter how wise and prudent a thing may be, nor how earnestly urged. Its advocate. In order to succeed, must hare faith In the people. He cannot build from the top but must carry his pro posal atralght to the masses of men. The politician‘Is always timid. He never has faith. He waits and listens for the voices of the people. He never proposes. He only accedes. Tht man who sxpsett to accomplish must rssch ths politician, not throuQh hit reason, but through hit respon sive obedience to what the people think. And so we repeat again that thla subject was taken straight to the people. It Is a wits snd prudent thing to do. Ths people are talking about It. The balance Is but a question of time. Tbe road will be built. And so believing, we cannot abstain from asking what will be the consequence. And now let us answer ths quattion snd prophecy. The road will reduce charges snd yet pay large profits. The intermediate stations will get what they never have had, a square deal. . The country will blossom Into small industries and grow rich Instead of being mere tributaries to the city. And yet, because of the prosperity of the small town* and tbe country, the centers of population will prosper more than ever. The road will have a terminus at every ; j port on the Atlantic and at least one on the gulf. Alabama. Tennessee and Kentucky will he quick to see that by building their connections they also can be come independent of tbe feudal lords now rich in privi lege. , Tbe water will be squeezed out of the other roads in Georgia because the fact will be exposed that their pres ent apparent value, constantly enhancing, is based on nothing and consists In nothing but the right to collect a tax from the people under tbe name of rates for ser vice. The state will rapidly absorb the other lines and the counties and towns will acquire the branches. Tbe basis of freight rates will be changed. Instead of>a complicated system of rates based on the principle of charging "nil that the traffic will, bear,” rates will be based on the principle of charging, with a limited classification, only so.much as will warrant and secure the best service and equipment, and pay a fair Income over. It wilt become apparent that a passenger, who takes care of and feeds himself, can be advantageously hauled Just as cheap as a hog of the same weight that has to be fed and watched and moved. Passenger rates will therefore be cut down In such remarkable-measure that railroad passenger traffic will become- as -common as street car riding and as profitable a business to the ear lier. ' a r : Transportation will be completely revolutionised. The advantages of civilized progress will no longer be withheld from the masses of men, but we will ail be per- mltted to enjoy on rations) terms the heritage, of the ages, now denied us by reason of. the stupid folly that confers upon brutal privilege the franchise to exercise monopoly. t . The example of Georgia will 'be followed by other states,,and private ownership of publfc opportunity-will **nss.' . Direct taxation (unless upon naked-land) will cease and an ample public revenue be'collected for special use of general rights. r This, yon will say, Mr. Doubtqr. is a vision of D topis. Well, ent this article out and put It away with a written record of your opinion. Thon look at It "ton years from today. - - *1 ' TOM WATSON’S GREAT TRIBUTE TO SAM JONES ON SOTH BIRTHDAY Lest We Forget the Greater Crime. , In the general letter setting forth to tbe country the conditions of the Atlanta riot, the editor of The Qerglan urged upon our contemporaries In the North "to help us by giving two words In condemnation of rape where they gave one to the condemnation of lynching.” Some of these contemporaries have been disposed to question the suggestion and to ask what The Georgian means. We are glad to answer the question because the reason -for doing so has received additional emphasis la the folly and thoughtlessness of our own people. The Georgian has been trying diligently for some months to build up a public opinion among the leaders of the negro race which would be brought with all its pow er and effect upon the mass-of tbe race in condemnation and awful warning against assaults upon white women. The structure has been carefully erected and diligently watched, and from It we have been hoping for the beat things in every way. ' ' > ‘ • Now then.'if «t this' time the newspapers of the North have their columns filled from conter to circum ference with columns and pages of denunciation of mobs and lynching, .with scarcely a faint and feeble para graph between, denouncing the crime which produces the mob, why, ttjo negro papers scattered' from Alex andria to K1 Paso will copy these utterances of the Northern nSwspapeis and take to their hearts the comfort that the whole volume of Northern sympathy • is with them against .the white man who defends himself In the mob, and that there la scarcely an appreciable denuncia tion of the crime dn his part which hw maddened and inspired tho mob to action.\ And so t™ public opinion among the negroes which we have sought to use In this great problem will work not for us but against us. ' These Northern newspapers can form no_cqnaeptlon of the deadly and destructive influence which the unwise and unbalanced construction of their editorials hare upon the negro of the South.* If-they-would only be Just enough to make It half and half, and give half'ns much denunclatjon to rape ns'they do to lynching, they would nt least neutralize 'the Impression of their limitless and boundless sympathy with the negro without regard to his crimes and misdemeanors. The Meattowr. Broadax will publish an article which it hat found in some stray copy of The New York Even ing Post, and all the negroes who read Tho Broadax or hear It read will go oIf saying to themselves that the en tire North and the whole body of their own race In tho South look with complacent indifference upon rape and with monstrous norror upon lynching, and that they, when they are lynched, become glorified martyrs over whose wretched bodies prayers are sung and protests are made that will eventually overwhelm the white mnn. Now this Is whSt we mean to our Northern friends when we say they can do us n service by magnifying rather thnn minifying the crime which nrousea the South to lawlessness and revenge. , Tbe negroes still retain the impression that the Northern people are without exception their friends and liberators from slavery. Consequently, whatever comes from the North has a large and effective in fluence upon the negro mind. If this Impression en courages them to believe that assaults upon white wo men are merely trivial offenses as compared with the greater offense of lynch law, then the negro will bo much less likely to avoid the horrible crime for which ho Is mobbed and to have even less fear of-a fate which car ries along with it the halo of martyrdom. It la surely a reasonable request to our contem poraries because they must reallxe that the annihilation of the body and, of the thing better than life In a good woman, ia at least ns great a crime as the destruction of a brutal negro by a 'nob, and realizing this, they cannot fall to do sufficient Justice to the South to equalize the comments which carry the expression and the Impres sion of their attitude and opinion, to this ignorant and excitable mass that Is watching them constantly with anx iety god with Imitation. Sorrowful to say, our own people in the South have swiftly and thoughtlessly fallen into the same habit that Tbe Georgian has so earnestly condemned In our North ern friends, nnd In our eagerness to clear our skirts of ap proval of the slaughter of the innocent by Irresponsible mobs, we have thundered so much and "deplored" so much along that line, that we ourselves have practically obliterated tbe memory of the greater and more awful crime. In the walling and lamentation that we have made over the punishment of it. We must see to It in the South that our own senrllo apprehension of Northern sentiment does not so far ap proximate the negroes' consideration of it that we shall cloud the lesion which we have tried so long to teach, and which H is so vitally necessary that wc should teach; that the crime of all crimes is rape and that no other la to be compared witn It in enormity or in punish ment. - * In this sentiment only are wc safo. Defeated Author and Statesman Congrat ulated Evangelist on His Success. In Saturday’s Issue of-The Georgian, as "A Saturday Evening," the editor contributed an article of appreciation and contrast on Sim Jones and Topi Watson. In It he referred to a beauti ful sketch which Mr. Watson wroffi of Sam Jones Just after the /allure of the former’s candidacy for the vice presi dency In 1896. That sketch was not available whan Saturday's editorial wa* written, and. the editor, expressed the gratification It would give him to reproduce It. In response to that sug gestion the article in question has been sent htm by J. L. Baskin, of Temple, Ga., Just as It appeared • In the old Peoples Party Paper." published In Atlanta In 1*97. Tho paper Is dated October 77, 1997, and Is already yellow with age. In ottering It, Mr. Baskin writes: J Temple Go., Oct. 72, 1906. Colonel John T/Gravcs, Editor The Atlanta Georgian: - . . —I see In The Georgian you .would like jo have Tom Watson's let ter to Sam Jones on his Both birthday Here -It Is. 1 have kept It as a souve nir Of rare merit. I would love to havo It reproduced. There afe, or have been, three men I have on my list—Sam' Jones. Tom Watson nnd John T. Graves.* Yours In great esteem, „ „ „ J. L. BASKIN. P. S.—Excuse pencil, as I can't write With pen. I am nearly 80 years old. J. L. B. The article follows In full: Last week Rev. Sam Jones celebrated his noth birthday. In bis palatial home at Cartersvllte, every dollar of whose value was coined In the golden mint of his genius, worm friends gathered about him to give evi dence of their love, nnd to speak In be half of all Georgians the words of praise this greatest of Georgians has io well earned. For twenty years Sam Jones has been the wonder of congregations, tho de spair of Imitators, the puzle of plod- ders, the scandal of the “unco gutd and rigidly righteous,” the wayward son of the hig-wlg bishops, the delight of the lecture hall, and the Prince Bountiful of the people—giving away the thous ands so easily mode and so charitably spent. In the good year 1*77, when both of us wore not so old, nor so gray, nor so wrinkled, Sam Jones -Ut down In this, veritable town of Thomson, and began to go for the devil and his angels In a manner which was cntlrely'new to said devil; also new to said angels. We remember that we were then trying to begin to practice law. Wo walked three miles every morning to Ihe office, loud n tin dinner bucket, like any school boy, took the mid-day Ideal alone undisturbed by the rush of Clients (who were painfully slow about rushing) and looked out upon the great world in doubt as to our future lot therein. Some one happened to remark In our hearing that there was a little preacher up at the Methodist church who was knocking the crockery around In lively style, and who was crusting the Jackets of the amen corner brethren In a war which brought the double grunts out of those fuzzy fossils. Pacific men love combative men, hence we at once strolled up to see what was going, on. As a rule we are hot ravenously fond of sermons. Wo mhko the confession with aluimc anil humiliation. When we have hoard the same commonplaces, about*00,000 times, we requlro ail of our native politeness to keep down yawns, nods, and other signs of fatigue and extreme lassitude. We did not yawn the day we went to hear Bam Jones. There he was, clad In a little black Jmnp-tni! coat, and looking as much like the regulation preacher as we look like the Archbishop of Canterbury. He was not In the pulpit. He was right next to his crowd, standing with In the railing, and almost In touch of the victims. His head was down, as If he holding on to his chain of thought by the teeth, but hfs right hand was going energetically up and down, with all e grace of a,. And, Lord! hmv he did hammer the brethren. How he did peel the amen corner. How he did smash their sol emn self-conceit, their profound self- satisfaction. llieCr peaceful copart nership with the Almighty, their placid conviction that they were the trustees of the New Jciusalem Wc sinners looked on, listened, grin ned. It was all we could do to keep from saying, "Sick 'em, Sain!" We knew some of those men. We sinners knew their falllrtgs. We won dered where Jones had learned It nil, We rejoiced exceedingly, and the amen corner brethren sweated In their great agony After awhile, with solemn. Irresisti ble force. Jones called on theke breth ren to rise In public,' confess their short-comings, and kneel for Divine Grace. And they knelt. With groans, and sobs, and fears, these old bell-weth ers of the flock fell on their knees, and cried aloud In their distress. And the Utt'.e than In the short-tall coal was master of the situation. Then what? He turned his guns upon us sinners, tin# he enfiladed us. He raked us fore and aft. He gave u. giape and canis ter and all the rest. He abused us Rno ridiculed us; he stormed at us nnd laughed at us: he called us flop-eared hounds, beer kegs, and whisky soaks. He plainly said that we were all hypo crites and liars, and he Intimated, somewhat broadly, that most of u» would steal. Oh, we had a time of It, I assure you, For six weeks the farms and the stores were neglected nnd Jones, Jones, JONES, was the whole thing. And the pleasantest feature of the entire display of human nature was the marked manner In which the amen corner brethren enjeyed Sam's flaying of us sinners Before the thing was over those holy men had almost recovered their bois terous h'lmllltj. which being Interpret, ed wm . r.t f. right ecusnce turned wrong side outwards. And nobody knows tjils better than 8am Jones. Well, the meeting wound up. the community settled back Into Its old ways—but It hoi never been exactly the same community since. THE LATE REV. 3AM P. JONES. HON. THOMAS E. WATSON. Gambling disappeared, loud profani- things. ty on the streets was heard no more, and the bar rooms were run out of tho county. Seeing the manifestations of power which Mr. Jones made day dfter day In these meetings, we have never felt the slightest surprise at hi* growth as an evangelist. Wc felt then, and express ed the feeling, that here was one of the men of original genius whom Ood Elves to mankind at very raro intervals. What Is the secret of his power? No one can tell, least of all, himself. Who can tell the secret of the laws by which one throat lias the hoarse caw ef a crow, and another the gurg ling sweetness of Jenny Lind? Who enn tell why one boy can declaim Pat rick Henry and put the audience to sleep, while another boy will declaim the same speech and break up the same audience Into storms of applause? Nay, who can tell why the same mu sician or orator, or painter thrills with the current Inspiration at one moment, and a! the next It Is all gone? Men of talent have their rules, thelf little adages, their prim, precise regu latlons. Give them certain materials and certain conditions, and they arc warranted to turn you out n certain amount uf work. They are valuuble men—perhaps the most valuable, for every-day purposes. We need them: can't get along without them. They build good bridges, make good roads, open the mines, run the factories, op erate the railroads, cut our coats, make dresses for our wives, sit in our courts, draw salaries In our offices, usefully act as governors, colonels end presi dents. But, oh, the men of genius! What would the world be without them the fleeting glories o imperishable custody of the canvas: they catch the {Hissing dream of beauty and chain It forever in the marble hands of the statue. They sing to us, and the world llstqns, delighted, melted, Inspired. They play fur us and the light of their thoughts illuminate the way for all men down the corridors of Time, till Time shall be no more. The man of talent we must have, for life has Its routine, Its drudgery—Its drays to draw'. Its wood to hew, Its wheels to turn, Jts prosaic commonplaces which must be regarded. But whai would life be without Its bugle calls to higher nnd better things, the sun-hursts of In spiration which reveal to our dellghte.1 vision the high table-lands of human nobility and human happiness; the di vine unwritten noiseless music within our Innermost natures which only the man of .;enlus can awaken? If wc were asked to analyze the power of 8am Jones we would say that the chlel elements arc clear mental vision fearless soul, kind heart, nnd unbridled, Irreierem, witty tongue. His good eves enable hltn to see the world just as It lx—Its sad things. Its funny things, Its sham things. In brutal thlhss. Its terrible things. Its beautiful His fearless soul leads hhn to de scribe what he sees, and the immense force of Truth and Realism becomes his slly. His kind heart enables him to denounce, yet not drive away, to chastise, yet love, to punish, yet win the culprit. His want of reverence for other men, their ways of speech and of life, un chains him from the shackles of rant, custom, routine, nnd conventionality. It frees him from Imitation. He thus gets room for his own Individuality to grow, his own fountain to play. Being freed entirely from ihe chains which enslave so many thousands of public men, his genius shines like a star—Inexhaustible, radiant. Put Talmage In one pulpit, and Jones In another to deliver one sermon In the same city, at the same time, and Talmage might equal Jones in that one sermon, end might get half the crowd, for that one time. , But let them start In to preach a series of thirty or sixty sermons In the same city at the same time, and before a week could elapse Talmcge would have nobody In his church but the salaried rliolr, the deaf man In the amen corner, and the Janitor. Jones would enpture the whole business. His fccimons would grow better day by day, as his genius expanded, his thoughts Intensified, and his heart warmed lo the ,vork. You c >uld no more exhaust Jones than you could exhaust a star: while Talmage, like all speakers of mere talent, Is filled for the occasion, like a lamp; and when that particular supply of oil Is burned out, you must wait for light till the poor thing can be filled again Here's to you, 8am Jones! Some day we shall meet beyond the evening and the sun-set snd the Crea tor of us both know that not one only of us tried to lift humanity and to make It better, witer, happier. And because one, only, succeeded there Is no good reason why the fail ure should not be generous and send greeting to tho success.

Hoke Smith, Is taking an active interest In n thorough organisa tion of the state militia. We need nt present a large, thor- oughly organized state guard, well equipped. We should be prepared for any emergency that may arise. our governor should be provided with such means os may be necessary to enable hint to enforce tho laws of the state I am glad to say he has Impressed me with the belief that he Intends to see that the laws are strictly enforced- not only that, but he means to give u> a clean, economical government. ( oon t think he Is disposed to open up netv offices for kin folks or political friends, but to the contrary, I think he Is disposed to, do away with some of. flees, where one man can do what two arc now doing. The people do not want to pay two men .to do what ohe can and should do. They are tired of "you tickle me and I will tickle you." Mr Smith Is under no obligations to any political boss or bosses for his election He Is under obligations to the mass., of the people for the grand landslide he made In the August election. He had the manhood and courage to speak out what he knew the people wonted. We hope he will be equally courageous In doing, as governor, what he knows the people want. — , •/ s. J. COBB.
