It la hoped that the application for pardon now* being made by Boley Dan J«*J* a negro convict who Is gening a life sentence at Norton Station, Kalb county, will commend Itaelf to the prison commission. In 1891, at Amcr cua. the negro Daniels was convicted it murder in the second degree, and was recommended to mercy by the jury. Since that time, although he has never conceded his guilt, but has protested vehemently Ida Innocence, he has serv ed In one or another of the convict camps jn the state. The case Is one peculiarly worthy of the consideration of the commission. Elf teen years a convict, Dunlels has been exemplary in his conduct, while contending all along. “1 did not kill, am not guilty,” It Is stated by those who are Interesting themselves in his pardon that the constitution of the ne* gro has been undermined by the rig orous labor and discipline of the con vict. camp, and that but few years of •ervice to the state can remain for him to render. Apd yonder at Rhine. In Dodge county, his mother, who Is 75 years old, calls on the Lord with the fanatical zeal ©f the negro to* perform one of His, miracles and release her son from the stripes. '‘Fifteen years is a long time to wait for mercy! It seems as If I could not stand It much longer, but must die If I am not released.” Bo reads the plea of Boley' Daniels. The case calls for no aantlmentnllxltyg, but cries aloud for Justice. If the negro Is guilty of tputder tti the second degree, he Is en titled by fifteen years of hard labor and excellent deportment, by falling health, and by the sufferings of an aged mother to thoughtful consideration from the prison commission; while If he should be, as he has always main tained, innocent of the crime charged to him, the pardon granted him would not atone for that fallibility In human Justice which has condemned the In nocent to suffer for the guilty and has laid upon a human life, crude and low ly though it be, the black shadow of the prison stripe. Rumors of W*r. The Cieorstui ha» received neveral inquIHe, front reader, a. In the real cau,e>, the nature and the .cope of the preaant International "uopleaaaMne.*'’ axlatant between the United Htate, and Japan. There have been wild rumor* that a \\ ar # would result from the trouble. All of the«e have errtanated from European capitals where the penny-a-liners loll their pot, by Imaclnlng International conspiracies, secret treaties and alli ances. and wars and rumors of war. The famous "war clouds In the Bal kans” have ceased to be remunerative and the journalists have sought other fields. Japan has a grievance against the United States, but the grievance is of auch relative insignificance that the arbitrament of arm* in the case would be a bowling absurdity. It I* this. The aclt.ad government of San Francisco lias passed a local law providing for the segregation of the Japanese children; that Is, that the white children shall be separated from the Japanese, a special school house be ing used tor the latter. The Japanese government lias taken diplomatic umbrage at this action, and claims that it It a violation of the ■ Isuse of the treaty of 1S»* which guarantees "muni rights of residence ““ THE FEE SYSTEM AGAIN. 'if the county official* were All placed on aalarlea, and the feea now re ceived wejje turned into the county treasury, it la eatfnmted that something like $40,000, probably even more, would be annually saved to the taxpayer* •it this eountv.” Bo said the September term of the Fulton county grand jury In Ita pre sentments to the judge of the superior court That statement waa the result of the Investigation and thought of twenty-three of Atlanta's brainiest and most successful business men. Their mimes are synonyms of success. Head them; A. J. West foreman: J. It. Nutting, secretary; John M. Green» K J. Paxon, AUmxa Richardson, James M. Couper, Ernest Woodruff, Albert Steiner, W. H. Kiser, Demps Pet kergpn, B. C. fluffy B. M. Blount, H. T. Boyd. Edwin Klngsbery, Joseph Thompson. K. L. Ifarralson. Wllmer L. Moore, Frank Hawkins, William J. Davis? George E. King, Georgy W. 8c I pie, J. W. Cotton and L. H. Beck. What they say about the fee system is to be taken as a sane, sound ex- Messlon of business sense, and not an attack on individuals. Aa a business proposition, there can be brought against It not one scin tilla of logic or argument. The proposition Is this; Fulton county is giving away at least 94U.OOO of money to Individual*. This is the result of the maintenance of the fee system for officials, a relic of mediaeval days. i The time has come for this wanton waste of money to cease. It Is time for the jieople of Fulton county and the people of Georgia to awaken to the criminal folly of this system, which puts Into the pockets of individuals a small fortune each year, for which no equivalent Is received. Fulton county secured last year from Its taxpayers the net sum of 1320,000 for Us expenses. Put the waste due to the fee system at the absurd minimum of 940,000. If this 940,000 saving, over and above fair salaries to he paid to the . county officials, be put In the county •ottera. Jt woujd be possible to reduce the county tax rate exactly 12 1-2 pet- cent. In other words, where a citizen now pays to the county 9100 In taxes, he would,'"if the fee sysjpni were abolished, pay only 997.50. - - - Grand juries have for years,been attacking and assailing this systgm, but nothing has resulted. It Is now |bout time for an awakening on the part of the taxpayers. Head what the grand Jury further says; . “This vicious system seems strongly Intrenched as ever, the mem- her* of the legislature from this county having absolutely Ignored the re peated recommendations of the various grand juries during all these years. “Jf the county executive committee could be induced to submit the* question to a vote of the people, we feel sure that an overwhelming ma jority of the votes would set the seal *»f their disapproval and Condemna tion on the system, but up to this time each succeeding county executive committee has declined to so submit the question. it Is a curious situation and really a travesty on republican Institutions, that n few men should be able, year after year, to thwart what seems' to be the almost unanln^us wish of the voters of the county.” Let the citizens demand a right to vote on this question. 1 * ; HEABST WINS TWO SKIRMISHES. The campaign for the governorship of New York shifts to Gotham, where the two leaders will wage their final battle. Both Mr. Hearst nnd Mr. Hughes have deserted'the qp-state and will light it out In Greater New York. • Just aa this takes place. Mr. Hearst has won two skirmishes which presage his ultimate victory. The first was the decision of the court of appeals In sustaining the validity of the Independence League's Judgeship nominations and ruling that their names shall be placed on the official ballot. The other Is the announcement made by the notorious Pat McCarren that I)lck Croker has cabled his best wishes to the Hughes cause. That eminent and aelf-eXIled statesman, the Honorable Richard Croker, has done the righteous* Mr. Hughes an Incalculable Injury by tendering him his best wishes. Meanwhile, Messrs. Ryan, Morgan nnd others of the I’lunderbund are losing sleep. It lookn JJke Hearst for a winner. * AUDITORIUM-ARMORY SECURED. On the afternoon of Friday, October 5, there assembled a few of At lanta's representative citizens who decided that a large auditorium-armory was needed In this city. Public announcement was made two days later. At i o'clock on the afternoon of Wednesday, October 31, the entire sum needed for this project, 9350,000, had been subscribed, and there, was an over-subscription of 94,000. This Is th« little way Atlanta has of doing things. Bo great was the enthusiasm manifested by those with whom the com mittee talked concerning the project that a number of tin* canvassers be lieve It would be well to set the capitalization at $300,000 instead of |250,- 000.

Right here, it may be said in passing, there exists an Interesting point for students of constitutional law to‘con sider. but It Is one that In no way af fects the Issue between Jupan and the United States. If the contention of Japan, that this treaty Insures the Jap anese children In the United States njudnst school segregation (which It does not), there would he a question as to whether the treaty werb constitu tional and therefore valid. According to the constitution of the United States only "all treaty* made, or which shul! * made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land.” The argument may lie made that this treaty of 1894 Is no more potent than an act of congress an*i that unless It adheres In every particular to the constitution, It Is not under the authority vf the United States.” And there are good grounds for attacking Its constitutionality. But, that Is all hypothetical, albeit In teresting to the student.

NEGROES BOUGH7 STOCK: DIVIDENDS FAILED TO COME Thirty-three negroes, who say .they have been swindled by New York cor porations into believing that with the investment of a few dollars they could retire on theJr incomes by a scheme by which "the educated negro will no more return to laborious occupations,’* have filed suit In the superior court to get theJr money, back. It is alleged In the suit filed through McDaniel, Alston & Black that through collusion between the Metropolitan Mercantile nnd Realty Company, of York, and the Metropolitan Mu tual Renellt Association, of New York, the money of the negroes tiling the suit s been taken and used Illegally. The literature of the two companies has a picture of the American Tract Society building in- It. leading ignor ant negroes to believe that that struc ture is the property of the company In which tHey are asked to make Invest ment. In the pamphlet the negro read er Is led to believe that his lot cun be made a bed of roses and his burden a balloon. From the Way the promotera have put It all the trouble the negro stockholder In the companies would have would be to hold hfs Incomedown. And lym* the 33 negroes wish to know what Is the matter with their dividends. They claim that they were given the privilege of withdrawing their money from the “benefit association” within 30 days If they so wished, hut that when they demanded it they couldn’t get It.

It Is the purpose of the company to build two Interurban trolley lines out of Atlanta, one from Atlanta to West Point nnd the other from Atlanta to Conyers. The petition Is being fought by residents of several streets on the proposed light of way, mainly on the ground that the streets are too narrow for more tracks to be laid on them. The line objected to Is on Rawson, Pulliam and Grant streets. A number of citizens nnd lawyer* appeared to voice this objection. Attorneys B. V. Carter and Courtland Winn, In advo cating the petition, stated that the company had already gone to great ex- fiense, having purchased steel mils and secured a right of way In the country. The company agreed to widen Raw- son and Glenn streets, where the thor- oughfuYes were narrow, and at Us own expense. The committee Hill meet again tills week, to take action on the petition.

To the Editor of The Georgian* "Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me; for of such Is the kingdom of heaven.” Neither earth nor heaven has ever witnessed that wfylch is more beautiful than the Innocence of childhood. Never a day but that I look Into the bright and smiling faces of happy clitl4 dren, and for the time being forget that life Is not all sunshine and happiness, losing sight of the cares and perplex ities that make ii burdensome. But, again, when I see the hundreds of oth ers who are not so favorably situated, growing up in Ignorance and under hardships that no child should ever feel, subjected dally to Influences that defeat life, robbed of the pleasures of its sweetest period, of that to which every child-In this broad land la Just ly entitled, shutting out forever the hope of the future (l mean in this life), amf when I think of the thousands of Institutions whose chief object Is the salvation of humanity, and the millfons and millions of dollars that are being spent on and through these Institu tions, I can but conclude that each one of these little waifs brands every one of these institutions a farce, and every home that claims to be patriotic and Christian a travesty. The future wel fare of the children of any home de pends not alone upon what that home Is doing for Its own children, but also upon what every other horn© Is doing for Its children. Of this I shall proba bly have more to say In the future. In our treatment of our children there is one Important matter which is very generally lost sight of. and that la that we have no right to rob them of one iota of Innocent pleasure that Is within our gift. This Is true not alone be cause these pleasures add to their hap pines*, hut also because they are es sential to the proper development of the better nature ami all the faculties that will enable them to see life In its true light. Human happiness and moral rectitude are not naturally an tagonlstlc, but go hand-in-hand, have seen a child of a naturally sweet disposition, easily managed, converted A BRACE OF ANCIENT EPITAPHS. On the twelfth day of July, 1335, half a century before the Jamestown set tlement, and sixty years before the Pil grims landed at Plymouth Rock, a par ty of French Huguenots landed In the bay of Rio Janeiro, Brazil. The settle ment was soon strangled by the Por tuguese. ColJgny sent out another ex pedition In 1562, which landed at the mouth of St. John’s river, Florida, but later on removed to Port Royal, S. C. There was established the first actual settlement on the coast of North America. This adventure also turned out to be a failure. Nothing daunted by these repeated failures, the Huguenots fitted out a third expedition, whlon settled detwn at a point some .eight miles up the St. John’s river, Florida, where they built a fort which they named Fort Caro line. It was June 25, 1964, when the Hu guenots established themselves at Fort Caroline, and the following September they stood face to face with their doom. One of the meanest men to whom pow er was ever delegated, Menendez, the Spaniard, wak in those parts with a large fleet and an army of twenty-six hundred men. It was an age of bitter religious hates, and Menendez resolved to extirpate Rlbaut and Ills "heretics,” He was as good as his word. One day, when Rlbaut and most of his men were out on an expedition, Menendez fell upon the fdrt and massacred every one of the garrison, some hundred and sixty In number, saving only part of the women and children. loiter on the fury of a great tempest put the rest of Rtbaut’s men at Menen- dez’s mercy—the mercy of a Spaniard of the sixteenth century!—and the rest Is soon told. Evety one of the more than five hundred and fifty Hugue nots was slain—In cold blood—after they hud surrendered with the prom ise that theiv lives should be spared. Above the mangled remains of his victims the brute caused to be erected a large sign bearing the inscription: ”1 do this not aa to Frenchmen, but as to Lutherans and heretics.” When the news of Menendez’s atroc ity reached France the court talked a great deal about it, but did nothing. The whole terrible affair was In a fair way to blow over. But a private in dividual, a Gascon sailor, Dominique de Gourgues, swore that the business should be avenged, Beilin* all Ills property and borrow ing what he co\ild, Gourgues fitted out three ships, every one of whom was a stranger to fear. In August. 1587, he sailed straight for the Florida coast, landing some forty miles north of the St. John’s. The Indians had no love tor the Spaniards, and three hundred of t%em joyfully entered into an alli ance with the Frenchman. With h!s three hundred red men and his hundred and fifty Frenchmen Gour gues pounced upon Fort Caroline and the four hundred Spaniards. From ‘ the burning fury of the ranchmen not a Spaniard escaped. Remembering the unspeakable brutali ty of Menendez, the word was. “No quarter! No mercy to the Spaniard!” and the resolution was carried out to the letter. When the bloody business had been handsomely finished. Gourgues planted a post In the midst of the heaps of slain and nailed to It a plank bearing this notice: “Not as to Spaniards, but as to traitors, robbers and murderers.” Not in H(s Business.

Our whole idea of parental control seems to be that of force, authority, physical superiority, notwithstanding the fact that through all the ages this system has proven a miserable failure. We forget that In a little while the child will outgrow this authority, when our power of control, based upon such absurdities, must come to an end and the* child Is left subject to Its ,ideus unit notions of life, growing out of Its knowledge of one hide-bound.

GOSSIP! BY CHOLLY KNICKERBOCKER. New York, Nov. L—Through the ef forts of Mrs. Clarence H. Mackay, the left arm and probably the life of the 6-year-old son of John Cornell, a car penter, who lives in the rear of the Mackay estate have been saved at Ros- lyn. L I. Mrs. Mackay/ a few days ago, was riding through the village when she saw the boy crying. His arm, which was bandaged, was causing him great pain. The mistress of palatiar Harbor Hill stopped her car and asked the boy’s name. When she reached home she Instructed John ©Libby, her head bookkeeper, to make an Investigation, and he found that the little fellow a week ago had shot himself with a re volver, and that the arm had b»en bound with a dirty rag after a little salve had been put on. The next day the arm was three times its normal sls^e, and there was danger of blood ]>olsoning. Mrs. Mack ay, seeing the boy again, sent for Agbnt Ludeke, of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty, to Children, who •took the little fellow to the Society’s rooms, where un operation was# per formed. The mother was arrested and taken before Judge Rem sen, who paroled her In the custody of the court officer to await the outcome of the boy’s injury. After having traveled * thousands of miles and crossed the Atlantic, Alfred Frey Waldmeler, of Beirut, Syria, was married to Miss Hattie Stern, of Mount Vernon, at the Friends* Meeting House In StU3’vcxant square. Miss Stern met Waldmeler while both were studying music at Frankfort, Germany. The girl went to London a year ago. Waldmeler hastened there from Syria and they became engaged. Some declare that Alfred G. Vander bilt's cab horse, for which he paid $300 In Syracuse. Is a fiction and will not be. exhibited at the horse show. I know a farmer who once paid $ti for a scrub cow. He washed, combed 1 and rubbed her, fed her on bran mash es, dosed her, petted her, and In a few months she was the finest looking cow In the country. I saw a well-remem bered race horse hauling an Ice wagon the other day and earning his feed. Possibly If you put the Vanderbilt children in rags as soon as they are born, leave them In the gutters, neglect and half starve them, they will become as the children of the tenements in a snort time, nnd grow up to be sus pender peddlers or push cart mer chants. In Washington diplomatic circles there seems to be an oplnon that Baron Mayor Dc» Planohes may again be re turned to Washington as Italian am bassador. He tendered his resignation, but so far as known It was never ac cepted nor la there any talk of anyone being sent to relieve him. His private effects still remain at the embassy, and there Is a feeling that he will return to Washington even if only temporally. Another Interesting rumor in the di plomatic corps coming from Washing ton, is that the Mexican embassy may be removed from its present location In I street, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets to the northwest, probably near the sites selected by the French and German governments for building their new embassies. So much lffnes has attended the Mexican ambassador* and members of their families, that, whether unhealthful or- not, the present embassy is at least un popular. and since the death of two ambassadors in succession hag become . much more so.
