THE VALDOSTA TIMES, [SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, i»«5. THE VALDOSTA TIMES. C. C. BRANTLEY. Editor. E. L. TURNER, Business Manager. THE DAILY TIME8. We are gratlfled beyond expression at the reception which The Dally Times has received, both In this city and among the people in the contigu ous territory, despite the fact that Entered at the Poatofflce at Valdoeta.! the paper has been printed, under Ga„ ae Second Claea Mall Matter. I difficulties such as we hope will be I avoided In the future. The demand SUBSCRIPTION PRICE |1 A YEAR VALDOSTA. GA., NOV. 4, 1905. TWELVE PAGES. Those New Orleans experts are not willing to give Jack Frost a bit of credit for wiping out the fever In that city. The man who goes to pieces under adverse criticism Is usually not strong enough to act becomingly under flat tery. The campus at the state univer sity Is to bo enlarged. Football space 'is a very Important thing at the uni versity. Those fellows who secure one of the Carnegie hero medals stand a good showing of also getting Into the Hall of Fame. Tom Watson has called upon the populists to rally to the support of Hoke Smith, and Hoke ought to upon the lxird to deliver him from hi* friends. “The south must solve the negro problem,” says President Roosevelt, but the south will not be able to do it if the northern meddlers continue to “butt in.” Dr. Len Broughton has denounced “The Clansman’" and Dr. Dixon has re plied In kind. In fact, everything seems to be playing into Dixon’s pock ets these days. ^ Those three thousand spellbinders will catch the ear of hundreds of New York voters this week, but the Tamtna- dy “barrel’’ will catch the votes on the day of election. The people of the illh district are very well satisfied that Congressman Brautley has decided to remain where he Is Instead of running ofT In search of "something better.” ’That torrible business strain," We hear do much about may be deadly, but It is the late hours, the hot-scotch- cs, etc., after business hours, that does the really deadly work. ^ * '' "Tttit tauter Bacon hat returned borne from his ttfp abroad almost completely restored to his forme.’ health la a matter for which the people of Georgia will be thankful. Civil service Is a thing that we have all fought and worried over, but there Is danger of having even too much of a good thing. Shiftless government employes should bo at the disposal of the heads of the depnrtmeuts. Now the roport comes that Mr. Roosevelt wants to “butt In’’ and arbltry the payment of some old bonds which wore repudiated by several southern states. His name will be Buttinsky yet, If he does not look out. Senator Depow Is taking no active part In tho eloctlon In Now York. It will requlro all his reserve energy to carry him through tho coming session of congress, handicapped by the life in* surnnee scandals with which his name has been associated. lho80 missionaries who were killed In China wero probably doing to Chin ese customs nnd traditions what we would want to kill n Chinaman for do ing to ours. But that is no reason why the Incident should not be used to further instruct them. Tom Dixon claims that “The Clans man” Is Intondod to help solve the race problem, though it causes a race riot nearly everywhere It goes. May be Tom’s Idea is to get up a little row that will result in wiping out tho weaker raco. Tho government labor ngont at Charleston refused to enlist negroes for work on tho Panama canal. Is this a discrimination against the negro or is it Just a sure sign that tho gov ernment is going to begin work in earnest on tho big ditch? for the paper through the city shows that It is filling a “long felt want' and that in the short period of Its life It has become a fixture with a large portion of the people of the city. But the paper Is not having the sup port which It should get from the bus Iness men of the city. Many of them have professed to want to see a dally paper started here, so they could reach the people every day with their an nouncements. Some of those who were the loudest in talking what "ought to he" before the Daily was started have not contributed a line to Its sup* port now that It has become a living fact. The Dally Times is a small paper, we admit, hut is read more closely that a much larger one would be. It does not print all of the news of thO world every day, but it prints the cream of the most important events from every quarter and It prints in short, tabloid form, to suit the bust' ness man, the house-wife and others who have not time to wade through columns of rubbish in order to reacb one little grain of fact. ~ Take the Daily Times today, yester day or tomorrow, and compare it with any afternoon daily paper in the coun try and we venture the assertion-that you will find as much worth retitetober- lug In Tho Times as you will find In any of tho rest of them. If it is small It is because It has less of rubbish in It tuan some of the largest papers. By actual measurement, It carries more columns of reading matter than many of the dally papers that haVe eight pages. We are very anxious to increase the size of tlie paper to eight pages and will do so just as soon as our advertis ing patronage will permit. Those ad vertisers who have lids, in the .Dally are getting good returns from them. It is the medium through which to reach the people every afternoon, and the Ust la growing rapidly every day, Every merchant in Valdosta ought to show his appreciation of the service which The Times Is trying td give the city by putting an advertisement in Tho Dally Times. If we did not know that they would be the beneficiaries we would not expect it of them. We do not want an advertisement from any one unless we can give value for value. In the meantime, we hope that our subscribers will read the advertise ments in The Daily Times and will mention it in doing their shopping. We expect to make many Improve ments In tho paper and in the next few weeks It will bo a household nec essity in every home in the city. one of the other. The protRMit has seen more of the south, has; plaited its cities and rubbed against the peo ple In their homes. He naiy seen their relations to the (nferk^ which lives among them and he i idently been Impressed by wjit he has seen. On the other band, tl* » peo ple of the south have had a bett4 Tiev of the president. They have ha' him in their midst have heard him d r tcusa and An Ohio minister says that he has received “a mysterious impression” that he should make a trip around the world. That’s fine, If the steamship agent receives a mysterious impres sion to furnish him with the required ticket. * Those correspondents on the West | Virginia showed a good deal of enter prise when they put Teddy down in the coal-bunkers to shovel coal but they lost a great opportunity when they neglected to have him “skin the cat” from tho jib-boom or bow-sprit Over the unnumbered fathoms of wa ter. YESTERDAY AND TODAY. The mutability of folks, ns wel as things, was hardly ever more fully demonstrated than In the changed at titude of many peoplo of tho South toward Theodore Roosevelt since his trip through this section. It is prob ably best that people are changeable in their Ideas of men nnd measures. The changing of the wind? and the churning of water keeps one pure and fresh and the other fretn stagnating. If people did not change their minds thoy would brood over Imaginary grievances and wrongs until they would become “pizen” with a desire for revenge or “raw” with hatred of their fellow men. President' Roosevelt, during the first three years of his tenuure of of- fleo ns president of the United States was about ns unpopular with the southern people as he could be. The the questions that affect them have felt that he was genuinely Inter ested in their welfare. While not re canting in the slightest degree oJ^any position they have taken bermP-re, the people of the south are more ready to believe that the president Is a big ger man than they thought he) was few years ago. 1 At the present time, a senator from Georgia Is declaring that Rwli^veit Is the logical candidate of all tlfe peo ple for the presidency the next') time. He predicts that the people of all sec tions will call upon him again to offer forlfme position,; One of the leading members of congress from this state shares In this view. The Pjpftion of uiese two distinguished dftorglans is Important chiefly as showing gjyhat changes may come over people and sections when thgy know mora'i other. The^ Times does not beli< south will cry very loud for to enter the race next time, though we are free to confess that he has r put himself in-a much higher place In the .esteem of the southern people by some of his reoent sayings and act%:\*; \\ THI DEVELOPING^SOUTH. * The recent report of the’ Southern railway Shows that along its line M the south during the year ending Jute 20, 1906, there wer# “completed and put in operation 46 textile mills, 34 furniture factories, 38 Iron industries, 6 tanneries, 77 stone quarries and coal mines, 3 cotton seed oil plants 8 fer-, tillzer works and more than 600 small er Industries. Over 260 previously ex isting plants were enlarged during year and 64 new industries wer? m construction at the close of Cojmmentlnj vannah Nows^hotes that was along the lines of one railway tem, aggregating some 7,000 miles. While the Southern covers and sup plies transportation for a considerable and progressive section of the south, it is but a small section when com pared with the whole south. And If there has been such marked and grat ifying progress along the lines of the Southern, what Is to be expected of the rest of the south? Why, man ifestly, that other communities have kept step with those along the lines of the Southern railway. The develop ment has not been in spots; It has been general. Nor has there been anything suggestive of a boom; the growth has been normal and on heal thy lineB. During the past year the people of the south have had more money for betterments than* for a good many years, and they have Invest* ed it largely at home. Every now mill erected, every manufacturing car padty. Increased consumptlonof raw material, Increased number of opera tives and a large volume of money put Into circulation.” The News justly adds that the Southern railway “deserves great cred It for the good work that It has done and Is doing towards the settlement and development of the lands and oth er resources along Its lines. It is proceeding upon the Idea that in order to be prosperous itself It must have a prosperous constituency, therefore, *lt is devoting energy and Intelligence, as well as money, to bringing in new settlers, and encouraging the building of mills and factories In its territory.” —Macon Telegraph.
