OUR. PLAT FOR M *—T he Georgian
stands for Atlanta's owning Ita own gas
and electric light plants, ns It now
owns Its waterworks. Other cities do
this nud get gas ns low as 00 cents,
with a profit to the city. This, should
be done nt once. The Georgina be
lieves that If street railways can be
operated successfully by European
cities, ns they are. there la no good
reason why they cannot be ao operated
here. But wo do not believe this can
be done now, and It may be some year*
before we are ready for ao big an un

face in tbit direction NOW.
That Third Term.
" 'Sincerity' la a somewhat con-
vetlble term when applied to tho
plans and schemes of ambitious
men in great affairs. With Julius
Caesar., gmj.. Qllr?r Cromwell be
fore the mind's eye, thoughtful
iieople may not unreasonably sur
mise that Theodore Roosevelt will
bear watching. Nothing which
•he has said In the line of renun
ciation Is wholly convincing. To
put the crown away has , ever
been a favorite device among the
historic leaders of mon. We can
not he sure of Roosevelt until the
time comes to put a final and prac
tical quietus, upon tho Idea boldly
set forth. by our Parisian corre
spondent and growing-all too com
mon In certain clrtlus oven here
in America.”
So saying, the Hon. Henry Walter-
son sounds a bugle blast v agatnst the
possibility of what he so aptly terms
“Cacsarlsm."
Colonel Wstterson fears Mr. Rooao-
velt may yield to the temptatiou of
a third term. He sees that as a peril,
which. It realized, will tranacend the
limit that keeps the president of tho
United States from being more pow
erful than any constitutional monarch
on earth.
The election of Theodore Roosevelt
In 1908 would, he says, proclaim to
the -world tho failure of republican
government In America, and would so
be accepted.
Colonel Watterson sets forth his ad-
mlratlf) for the originality, sagacity
and fflurage of Roosevelt, the states'
man and the politician. He makes hla
powerful editorial solely an attack on
the un-Amerlcanlsm of a third torm.
The fear does not rest solely with
Colonel Watterson. From different
motives and by another ratiocination,
powers In the Republican party are
making n determined, though half
veiled, attempt to prevent Mr. Roose
velt's again accepting the nomination.
Root, Taft. Cannon. Fairbanks, Shnw,
even Hughes, are being boomed, and
the before-mentioned powers In the O.
O. P. would gladly see any one of
them nominated rather than Roose
velt.
Hut the knowledge of his marvelous
personal popularity, and Ms own am
bition, may cause Mr. Roosevelt to for'
get his promise never ngaln to be a
candidate for nomination for the pres
idency.
If he can resist this temptation he
will enroll himself In the too-small
scroll of America's great statesmen.
Or, again to quote Colonel Watterson:
THE RAILROADS, AND THE COMMISSION.
Within the past yesr the Georgia railroad commission has given
earnest of its desire and Intention to stand squarely by the people In
their fight for justice from the railroads.
The commission has passed upon many important Issues looking to
amelioration of. unjust or intolerable conditions. Rates have been re
duced in numerous instances and on various commodities; small commu
nities have brought their grievances before the commission and where
the facts justified, have been accorded relief- • . * ,
But within this same time the railroads havo demonstrated that
neither public sentiment nor the ruling of the commission has any
weight In shaping their course toward the people and their rights. They
run to the coarts as the final arbiters of every question.
Np just demand or ruling of the commission Is to be accepted without
the long, tedious battle through the various courts to the final and ex
treme court of resort. Injunction is the keynote of the railroads' conten
tion. The commiaslon Issues a circular reducing rates on a- certain class
of goods or an order giving to communities the rates they are justly en
titled to.
“What's this? Trying to tell us what profit we make on our watered
stock? Pooh-pooh! To the courts! An Injunction, an Injunction to stay
this Iniquitous attempt to usurp our prerogative of gouging the dear
people!"
Whereupon a temporary injunction Is secured, and the months of
weary, exasperating legal process Is on—and the people continue to pay
the freight. To memory com^s the straggle against the stove rates;
more recently, the stay of the commission's decree of the continuous
mileage rale on the Wadley. Southern.
What matters It that the Central openly acknowledges ownership of
the line? To apply the rale would cut down profits, and profit! are of
more moment than justice to the people dependent ' upon the Wadley
Southern for transportation of their freights and passengers.
It has come to the pass that without enlargement of the 'powers of
the commission and full authority to enforce their rulings. that .a railroad
commission In Georgia Is of little value to the people. Vfl’ll the general
assembly of 1907-8 realize this and meet the question fr«ly and frankly?
The Georgian believes It will, if It be within the potter of Governor-elect
Hoke Smith to bring It about.
This paper has no prejudices against railroads. ' But the evidence
they are giving constantly that public sentiment has ilo lota of weight In
their blind and ruthless lust for profits—whether Just br no—and thp
expressed Intention to Ignore the commission of the people and resort to
tile courts on ever/ ruling must end In radical legislation to their hurt.
Will they sense thb danger In time? Will they realise that the peo
ple are fully aroused to their rights and will have them at whatever cost?
Will the roads be prepared to meet the wrath of the people when all pa
tience has been exhausted?
sure to a college a winning team the
next seaaon, yet the system by which
Vanderbilt is turning out good elevens
Is so well founded that a strong squad
is assured for 1907, and it Is to be
hoped, for the sake of Southern athlet
ics, that the Commodores will be en
abled to arrange a match next year
with one of the Eastern “Big Six."
The universities of Virginia and
North Carolina play some of the East
ern teams each year, but they are not
representative of the far South, nor do
their teams represent in the ethics of
amateur athletics or In playing
strength the Southern Inter-Collegiate
Athletic Association.
A game between Vanderbilt and,
say, Princeton, would bo an event of
greatest Interest to the world of sport,
and would be particularly gratifying
to tho South.
Ay has been pointed out before on
the sporting page of The Georgian, the
America. It was clearly proved that
■he was Innocent of any wrong-doing,
and that the mention of her name In
the divorce suit qu malicious. Sho
was completely and publicly exoner
ated.
But the damage that had been done
could not be undone.
She never recovered from the shock
and for ten years was an Inmate of
a sanitarium, till death released her.
Her mind was blank during the lime.
It Is a little tragedy of real life.
But the little tragedies of real life
are more poignant than the big trage
dies of fiction.
"If the president, reminded by
the ominous and futal silence of
Grover Cleveland on a similar oc
casion. will call his formative
body before him and will say to
them, 'he who proposes to keep
me here an hour after the'4th of
March, 1909, Is my enemy and tho
enemy of bla country,' or words to
this effect, our Judgment Is that he
may not only name hts successor,
as Jackson did, but can take a life-
seat In the senate, there to do in
estimable public service, going to
Valhalla cloisters at last a good •
third with Washington and Ltn-
coin."

Vandy’s Success—A Lesion.
Interest In the Vanderbllt-Carltsle
football game was not confined to the
constituency of the sporting editors,
and the triumph of the Southern ath
letes Is just about the biggest piece
of news of the day in Dixie.
The Indians from one of the very-
best teams of the country, second In
strength only to Harvard, Yale,
Princeton and perbapa Cornell, and
their defeat at Nashville furnishes In
controvertible argument of what
Southern sportsmen have believed for
two years—that Vanderbilt Is right
at the summit In football prowess.
While one year's victories do not ts-
Our Agricultural School.
Elsewhere on this page appears an
appeal for donations to the fund for
the agricultural school of the Fifth
congressional district, as authorised
by the act of the last legislature.,
“ These schools havo the possibility of
sucoess Vanderbilt Is achieving In ath- accomplishing a great deal of good
Idles Is particularly slgnlflcaht. alnon S the children of the fanners of
the state. The plan Is not only ideal
but has the greater merit of being
eminently practical.
The school for the Fifth district
will not be located In Atlanta or even
In Fulton county. It Is hardly fitting
that an agricultural school should be.
Hut It will be as much Atlanta's
school as If It vyere.
The trastees for the Fifth district
ask that Atlanta contribute a small
pnrt of the fund necessary to put the
achool on a firm basis at the start,
It Is as good an educational cause
as Atlanta's men of wealth can con
tribute to.
The Georgian feels sure there will
be n cordial response to the appeal.
Tho strength of her teams Is, of
course, due somewhat to the fact that
there are about a thousand students to
choose from—more than at other
Southern collegea—and that the ad
mirable preparatory schools of Ten
nessee furnish good football and base
ball training, but the real basts of
Vnndy's success Is her unswerving ad
herence to the laws, written and un-
Written, of clean, pure athletics.
Vanderbilt has never been known
to hire or "persuade" athletes, known
In the college vernacular aa "ringers;"
she has never been accused of using
undue Influence to secure star players
of the "prep” schools to enter college,
and the strong, steady hand of Dr. W.
I* Dudley, who Is the faculty member
In charge of athletics, has always
worked for what Is cleanest and best.
The success of any college In ath
letics Is not a matter of luck or
chance, nor Is It a matter so fickle In
nnture. It Is an evolution, a steady
growth.
Vanderbilt has worked along stolid
ly from year to year, sometimes win
ning, sometimes- losing, but always
playing cleanly and honestly, building
well, until In the past three years she
has keen at the top of the athletic
head.
She deserves her success.
AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL
FOR THE FIFTH DI8TRICT.
Georgia Oayvan.
There died the other day at a sanl
tarlum on I<ong Island a Miss Georgia
Cayvati.
To nearly all of the play-goers of
the day Miss Cay-van's name will con
vey no Idea or meaning; In the minds
of those who were theater attendants
in the latter '80s and early '90s It
will start a flood of memories.
For ten years her name has never
appeared in the papers or on the pub
lic tongue, save as an Incldeut in rem
iniscence. For ten years she was
buried alive. Yet. fifteen years
ago she was the most charming and,
beyond question, the most popular ac
tress on the American stage. The
versatility of her talents gave her
range from the Gilbert and Sullivan
operas and "Hasel Klrke" to "Oedipus
Tyrannus." She was not a genius, but
she had drumntlc talent, and moreover
personal charm and distinction that
made her loved of the public.
She was a slave to her work and
along In 1896 when she was on the
verge of nervous breakdown, It hap-
liened that a divorce suit was filed In
.New York and immediately became
the sensation find the scandal of the
dav. In this suit Miss Cayvan’s name
was mentioned.
There was no basts to the bringing
in of her name. Miss Cayvan went
into court to defend her reputation.
She was indorsed by the Sorosis and
nractlcally
To the Editor of The Georgian:
I suppoee every heart In Georgia has
been moved to beat with pride at the
manner In which our South Georgia
sections have contributed so liberally
for the establishment of an agricultural
school In their respective districts. Our
North Georgia sections must not be
outdone.
It is thought desirable by the tras
tees appointed In the Fifth congres
sional district to locate the school In
one of the counties other thnn Fulton,
for the reason that they think It would
ilo more good In a county more strictly
agricultural. These counties have few-
wealthy cltlsens who are able to re
spond liberally.
I think the wealthy and public-spirit
ed men of Atlanta who have the wel
fare of our agricultural Interests at
heart should gladly help such a worthy-
institution wherever It may be located
In their congressional district. I think
nt least Atlanta men might subscribe
enough to erect a building, to be named
In her honor. She c«n give a dormitory
or one of the bulldingir needed.
I know Atlanta has many calls upon
her and Is quite busy with her great
Industrial development, but so worthy
nnd beneltclat an Institution ns the
agricultural school will be, should not
lack any reasonable aid.
The trustees will meet on December
6 at the capita! to locate this school,
and In the meantime I hope to have
some liberal support from those In At
lanta who are able and public spirited.
They certainly cannot give to n more
worthy rnuse nnd to one that has been
longer neglected than the agricultural
educational Interests of our state. If
anyone interested will take the pains to
see the picture of the proposed plant to
be erected and the’ course of study to
1)0 taught they cannot doubt Its In
trinsic value or great usefulness In the
upbuilding of the resources In the Fifth
congressional district. To accomplish
the greatest good It Is necessary that
these schools start out fully equipped,
and this rannot be done without 200
acres uf land and ISO,000 or 840,000 In
money. Atlanta can easily afford to
give at least one-tenth of this money,
or 88.000. Who will start the list?
Yours truly,

SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAP
TERS—Hiram Hlghsign Is struck on
the head as he is manufacturing pure
maple syrup, arid Is rendered uncon
scious.
CHAPTER II.
When Hiram came to himself
couldn't recognize bis surroundings.
This was not strange, ap there didn't
appear to be any surroundings, except
air. Presently he heard a voice some
where. ' "
"Seems to me we touched something
that time," said the voice.
"Guess we did,” replied another voice.
Then, as Hiram wondered where he
could be, he heard a surprised cry
above him. "Why, there's a man stuck
on our grapnel!”
"Can't you shake him off?"
Hiram felt himself Jerked violently
and wiggled gently, but nothing hap
pened. .
“I can't get him off,” said the voice,
disgustedly.
"Well, we’ll have to pull him up.
then,” said the other.
Hiram felt himself hauled through
the air until he bumped against some
thing, and landed In the basket of
balloon.
“This mug's cost us the race,” said
one of the men.
"Yes,” said the other, disentangling
Hiram; "I guess we'd better throw him
out.”
Hiram gaxed at the earth, a thousand
feet below and shuddered.
'it won’t do him much good, Smith,'
remarked the first speaker.
"No; but It’ll do us good.”
"All right then,” satd the tender
hearted one, "over he goes.” '
Over the edge of the basket went
Htram. He tried to keep himself afloat,
as he uked to do when bathing, by
treading air, but It was useless. He felt
with terrific speed toward the earth.
Far above he heard a cold-blooded
chuckle and the remark, "Pedestrians
have no right to Impede balloons."
Hiram continued to fall.
In the sky a cloud was floating. In
the sea a boat was floating. In the vlt
lage a floater was voting. In the city I
mine was being floated. Everything
could float but Hlrnni.
In tile meantime Hiram kept on fall
lng. He was the original fall guy.
Alt over the world stocks, elevators,
the cost of living, bonks and rockets
were going up.
■Only Hiram was descending.
Hts death seemed Inevitable, when
an English sparrow crossed his path
Hiram, by a frantic effort, managed to
grasp the bird's leg. His life was
saved.
(To be continued.)
After a lengthy discussion. In which
both sides raised bbjectlons, the ordl
nance granting the Gate City Terminal
Company the right to cross certain
streets In (he construction of a road
bed for the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic was adopted by council
Thursday afternoon.
It was dark when council adjourned,
but the aldrrmantc board - met Imme
diately afterward and concurred In the
action. *
The committee i.n streets met nt 2:30
o'clock In the afternoon, and adopted
the report of the special committee.
This report was the ordinance later
adopted by council, except for a few
irovlslons and changes afterward made
jy the committee.
When the ordinance came up, a num
ber of citizens made protests. Their
objections were practically the same aa
those which hnd been raised before the
streets committee from time to time
namely, the deterioration In the value
of their property, because of Inaccessi
bility.'

CORRECTION IN JU8TICE
TO FAITHFUL 80LDIER,
To the Editor of The Georgian:
I see the announcement of the death
of piy father, John H. Beltelste, In The
Georgian of the 16th Instunt. Whoever
gave the Information In regard to his
life, his service In the wur of 1861 to
1865, was -evidently not properly In
formed. My father was a Confederate
veteran; volunteered and Joined the
Neivnnn Guards; among the first to go
to battle. He fought In many a hard
battle, was captured near Atlanta and
carried to Camp Chase, Ohio, where he
was kept a prisoner nine months and
fourteen days, that being the time from
his capture to the surrender.
My father was too proud of the
name Confederate veteran, as all of
them are, to be called a union army
soldier. So when I saw It, It really
made me feel bad to know that, after
serving faithfully aa he did, there was
not conferred upon him the honor of
being called a Confederate veteran, true
to the cause.
I hope you will be kind enough to
correct the error. In so doing you wifi
confer the honor on him that he
claimed while he lived and a favor on
our family. Leaving the matter with
you, I am yours truly,
W. E. BELLEI8LIE.
