THE WOMAN IN THI CASE
Much has been printed in the
paper* during the past few days
about a shooting in Atlantic City.
Ther e seemed no special reason for
so much publicity about thi* crime.
Shootings unfortunately are all too
common In our country. It js rarely
that such crimes are punished when
committed by one who has money
enough to employ the best legal tal
ent; hence there 1s little to deter
anyone thirsting for blood and having
plenty of money from satisfying his
blood lust. But thfe yellow journals
always want aomething which they
can serve the public as scarehead
sensation*, so they made use of this
Atlantic City shooting because It was
thf, best to serve this purpose at thi*
time.
A man was out riding on the board
walk with a woman who was the wife
of another man. It was quite late,
and they rode far out. to a secluded
part of the walk. There the man was
shot. Ha whs carried to the hospital
and fortunately bis wound proved not
(o be fatal and he will recover Who
ftred the shot la not known. The man
who was shot, the woman who was
with him, and the negro who pushed
the cart, all said that It was done
by a masked man who suddenly
Jumped out of the bushes and tried
to rob them. This story was not be
lieved and was later contradicted by
the attendant, who said that there
was no robber, or third person in the
oase.
This leaves the affair shrouded In
mystery as to who did th° shooting,
and this mystery furnished the basis
for tha lot of stuff that has appeared
In the papers sbout the case, of
course, the parties Involved wer e rich
people—if they had been poor and ob
scure the case would have been dis
missed with a thre* line notice But
because they were rich, and of high
social standing In their home city of
Baltimore, the most possible promi
nence was given the case
The Washington Herald has now
risen In protest It Hays that the
name of this man and woman was
given when the story was first print
od, and this It does not condemn—as
II could not possibly do. But when
ihe case was made a case celebre by
the yellow Journals, some enterpris
lug papers published the picture of
the woman Involved This otir Wash
ington namesuk,. denounces as "un
fair. unjust, ungenerous and shame
lessly undignified." It will readily
appea. that these adjectives apply
much better to lta criticism. This Is
the day of Illustrated psper* Every
thing Is Illustrated In the daily papers
as far a* possible, and especially in
presenting the pictures of persons
most In the public oy,, al the time.
Hence there Is nothing that can pro
perly he condemned when enterpris
ing papers secure and print the pic
tures of the woman who for the time
being occupies the front place of pub
lic attention. gDeti her by be yellow
Journals In the first Instame.
But because some paper-j In print
ing the picture of ti..s -vomau placed
It in the body of the news article,
labeled "The woman In Ihe case" to
Identify It. our censorious contem-
porary rises to the strongest condem
nation tt can frame. In the most
scathing terms It denounces those pa
per* which have Incurred It* dis
pleasure tn this respect.
And yet thcr,- was nothing wrong in
such a course. A picture must be
labeled, for without Identification It to
worthless In a public print. Of course
her name mlgh’ have been printed
under it. but to designate it "The wo
man tu Ihe case" was quite correct..
It cannot be justly charged that the
papers which did This were "meanly
suggestive." conveying " a hint that Is
Intolerable" under all the attending
circumstance*.
Aspcrsiou* should never be cast on
a w-i man’* character. Nothing 1*
more contemptible or more surely to
be condemned than that But when
u woman of high social station lead*
her husband to believe that she has
gone to Boston, and turn* up as the
com can ion of another man. who Is

near the hour of midnight. It ia a
petultnr case and It cannot be wrong
to dlslgpatg her a* the woman in the
ca»e, with which her own conduct
has so unevtably connected her.

A DIFFICULT PROBLEM
Colonel Daniel C. Kingman, United
States engineer, thinks that the only
escape for the city of Augusta from
| periodical floods is the erection of
I levees along the banks of the Savan
! nah river, beginning at Hawks gulley
and extending about two miles to
some point below the city. The preb
lem of diking the Savannah river has
been ore which has troubled Augusta
for many a day. Its construction
would be expensive; Us value would
!be problematical. It is difficult to see
•vhat real good a system of levees
1 would be, when the great danger is
! from the canal banks giving way,
flooding the city by the immense
amount of water heaped upon It. For
| the great menace to Augusta is the
| back-water, and, strange to say, points
! directly on the Savannah river are
not reached by the flood. Oid St.
Paul’s churchyard is one of these.
A levee to be effective must be
long and strong. It would have to
begin further up than Hawks gulley
and probably have to extend around
the southern and western borders of
the city. The construction of a dike,
i of course, would make the bed of the
Savannah that much higher, and if
there should be a break or an inlet
f from any cause, there would be dan
ger of aweeping the city away. Flood
waters when pent up are very danger
j ous propositions. Each succeeding
flood raises the bed of the river, un
til the conditions might be reached
of having the river higher than the
city. The great trouble is that tile i
Carolina hills on one side roll the
flood waters over the city of Augusta, j
With a dike on the other side, the ;
river in certain stages might assume i
the force and aspect of a Johnstown
washout
The levees with a new system of
sewerage would cost Augusta consid
erably over a million dollars. Thirty
five years ago Augusta issued canal
bonds to bring the river down to the
city. Many of these bonds are still
outstanding. The city will have to
issue as many bonds now to keep the
canal out. For the government could
not be expected, as Colonel Kingman
shows, to pay for any system of dikes
or levees. The government might,
however, start this work by restoring
the banks of the Savannah river where
they have been washed away. This
would afford the basis of the work.
We still believe that General Alexan
der's suggestions are wise and practi
cal. Pave the streets and elevate
them as far as possible. Fill tip the
cellars. Augusta has long cellars un
der each store, extending the entire
width of the block. Elevate all the
new buildings above the ground; build
a turtle-back town, and then. wh“n
the water comes, it will do the least
possible amount of damage. To put
up levees would be expensive and
dangerous. The other way makes
Augusta practically waterproof.
Colonel Kingrr.an has laid the peo
ple of Augusta under obligations by
responding promptly to their call,
and by offering the solution, which
seemed good to him. Colonel King
man has shown himself the friend of
Augusta as well as of Savannah and
has had a chance of seeing the Savan
nah river In all Its moods. Down
here we want It deepened and wid
ened. Up the state they want it reg
ulated and controlled. —Savannah
Press.
Praise from an Opponent.
Governor Smith is responsible for
the extra session, it will certainly
not cost less than $29,000, and It is
perhaps the finest act of his public
life. If the convict problem is set- j
tied—and is settled wisely—and that ;
is the end for which the extra ses
sion is called—the state of Georgia
will In one year make back that S2O.- 1
000 and $40,000 more? and will have I
abolished a disgrace that sears the |
soul of every self respecting and pa
triotlc citizen. The convict broker
—who has mane ms hundreds of thou,
sands—will be denied his blood mon
ey, and honesty and humanity will j
be given a chance.—Atlanta Georgian, j
Fortunate for Georgia.
A good deal of the regular session
has been consumed with poppy-cock
which consists of shillow atHinpts to
fool old soldiers and other
classes with voting sirength and leal
them to believe that they have "dying
friends' In these, statesmen (?) It
to fortunate for Georgia that she has j
a governor who has the backbone to !
see Lhat the convict question ia fully
settled and rightly settled. It has
been a blot on the state long enough.
