Snlti-riora In That Line—llia Jtlil*P
nirnt I* Reaprcted on the Floor ot
the Hoaae—How He Once Opposed
Hi* Own Party and Helped Seat a
Democrat.
Washington, May 18.—Among the young
er members of the House of Representa
tives there is none who gives promise of
greater permanent usefulness that Will
iam H. Moody of Massachusetts. This is
really Mr. Moody's second term in Con
gress. He was first elected to fill out a
few months of the unexpired term of Gen.
Cogswell, one of the best men who ever
■a: in the House, but had little opportu
nity then to do much more than look
around and get his bearings, which he did
to very good purpose. Mr. Moody was
first chosen in his own right to the Fifty
fifih Congress and down in the Essex dis
trict they now say that he can stay in
Cong Tess Just as long as he likes.
Three is nothing sensational or super
ficial about Moody. He is as hard a
Working and as thorough going a man as
there is in public life to-day. The qual
ities which have won his present success
and which promise to bring him still
greater successes are firmness, conscien
tiousness and sincere devotion to duty.
He always Inspires confidence and that is
something which must be of the utmost
value to any man who maps out for him
self a political career. There have been
ether members of the House In the last
few years, who by single successful
Strokes have gained for themselves a
greater temporary reputation and who,
perhaps, by the nature of the circum
stances surrounding their display mav
have attracted wider attention away from
Washington. But no one of these com
pares with Moody when it comes to in
fluence in the House and no one of them
has taken a place among the real lead
ers of Congress in matters of legislation
within so short a time.
Moody** Beginning* In Wn nil 1 n gton .
When Moody first came to Washington
he set out with the definite purpose of
making himself thoroughly familiar wbn
Ihe methods of legislation, and for months
devoted himself solely to this task. He
deliberately resisted the temptation, al
ways strong with new members, to force
himself upon the aitention of the Hou v
by plunging into debate and making a hit
with a maiden speech. He had confidence
in himself and knew that he could safely
wait and trust lo time and to His naii\e
abilities to gain the influence and reputa
tion he was after. He waitel until he
was sure of his ground and then when he
ventured to demand the attention of ihe
House he got it and In such a way, tco,
that thereafter every word of his carr ed
welgh-t. He i/npresed himself upon his
associates as a sound lawyer with a train
ed mind whose honesty of purpose could
never be questioned.
Mr. Moody has ally’s been placed on
hard working commt.iees. His first as
signment was to the Elections Committee
and his first reputation was made by his
exhibition of Independence in uphold,ng
the claim of the Democratic claimant In a
contested case. He had to break with his
Republican associates on the cotnmit.ee in
this, but so completely had he masterei the
details of the cast aad the law* that he
carried his point against the majority of
his own party. He was afterwards assign
ed to the Appropriation Committee which
is the roost important committee of the
House, Appropriation bills always have
the right of way and members of the com
mittee arc constantly in evidence from the
necessities of their position. Garth Id,
Randall and Cannon are some of the men
whose congressional careers were Indent.-
tied with their work on appropriations end
opportunities for reputation are Just as
great now as every they were.
To handle an appropriation bill on the
floor, to secure its passage by the House
it the shape it comes from the committee
tnd to catry the original form so far as
possible to the point of enactment into law
in spite of the ohangts suggested by the
fenate. afford the very best test of par
liamentary ability.
The member who does all these things
must have a thorough knowledge of his
subject, must be effective in debate, and
shove all must understand men and be
resourceful in parliamentary expedients.
Moody has shown ail these qualities and
las won signal victories on the floor.
When he was a member of the Postal
Commission he devoted himself as con
scientiously to studying all the conditions
cf the postal service as to every other
question he had undertaken to master.
He is' a member now of the Committee
on Insular Affairs which Is to be her af
ter one of the great committee of law
yers.
Keep* Bachelor'* Hull.
Moody is a bachelor. He has always had
bachelor apartments in Washington and
through one congressional session he and
Representative Gillette hired a house to
gether and kept bachelor’s hall. He is a
member of the Metropolitan C ub and such
time as he spends in the club is about all
the social relaxation he allows himself
or carts for.
At home In Massachusetts he ranks high
as a lawyer and duilng the long recesses
of Congress he devotes himself to his
profession, although there is n-ver a time
when he is not studying legislative prob
lems and trying to fit himself more thor
oughly for his public duties. During one
long recess he carried home all the books
be could find on parliamentary usage, and
when he came back for the next session
he was so thoroughly grounded in that
most difficult and Complicated branch that
only two or three men in Congress, and
those veterans, who have seen many
years of service, can compare with him
In parliamttitary lore.
Moody is short and stocky with a fine
head set on a broad pair of shoulders,
and he looks the lighter that he is. No
cue can see him without recognizing the
man of bull dog tena ity who Is not afraid
of tackling any situation which he may
b - thrown up against. He was graduated
at Harvard four ytars before Gov. Roose
velt. but unlike some of the other Har
vard graduates who have come forward
ii public life has never devoted himself
especially to pure literature, and there is
llvle of the a'mos; h< re of books about
him. He is hard head and and practical, un
hampered wbh illusions, but In spite of
hb hard sense he figures 1 ttle in practical
politics—so-called—and is indifferent to the
machinery cf primaries and conventions.

THE XKWS AT EATOXTOX.
Shoe Mil n n factoring Compnn > Fa
mous Olil Negro I^ead.
Eatonton, Ga., May 19.—Prof. O. B. Nls
bet has been elected principal of theEatcn
ton High School. He succeeds Prof. C. H.
Bruce.
The shoe manufacturing company has
been organized and the plant will probat!y
be in operation within sixty days. The ca
pacity of the factory will beaboutSOO pairs
per day. W. S. Smith and C. M. Davis
were elected managers and D. M. Wilson
superintendent.
The Mllledgevllle Oil and Ice Compiny
has bought a lot from W. S. Smith upon
which it will erect a ginnery an 1 probahy
and oil and ice factory. The ginnery w.U
be much larger than anything of the kind
in this section, and both the square ard
round bales will be packed.
An event of interest of this week 10 all
who have visited Eatonton was the dearh
of "Sleepy Clark." For years this old
dark.v has stood upon the streets of the
town in a somnolent state. He slept as
readily in the midst of the "madding
crowd” as on a mohair mattress. His
narration of the origin of his affliction was
very interesting; first, because he claimed
to have been hoodooed by a "nigger who
worked In roots en one stuff ern ther," at
the Instance of a number of young negr s
whom he had superseded in the affections
of a "likely cullud girl;" and. second, be
cause all this occurred on the plantation
of Mr. A. Turner, who guided the
budding genius of Joel Chandler Harris,
and at the time that Mr. Harris was pack
ing his brain with negro folk lore on the
same plantation. The old negro remem
bered Mr. Harris quite well.
SEPARATION OF THE RACES.
Tlie Plan Put Into Effect on Augus
ta's Street Can.
Augusta, May 20.—Tlte separation of ne
groes and whites on the street cars was
Inaugurated this morning In Augusta. i>i
the forenoon, negroes were assigned to
rear scots on the cars, and whites to the
seats in front. In the afternoon a trailer
was run with each motor car to accommo
date the large travel of the afternoon and
evening, but so far as the negroes were
concerned It did not materialize, very
few of them riding at all, and both front
and back oars being filled by whites.
The negroes resent the regulation, and
are advised by their leaders to boycott
the cars.
To-night a little sensation was created
by the report that negroes had wrecked a
Summerville car, but it proved to be ab
solutely unfounded. The only excuse for
the report was that negroes had been
heard to make threats, and Mr. T. I.
Hickman, lntendant of Summerville, swore
in some extra deputies to aid his mar
shal in patrolling tne line of the road in
the village. There was no demonstration
of any kind.
—The Austrian Emperor Francis Jo
seph, who is 70 years old, was recently
advised by a high court official to take
the baths of Gastein as a cure for rheu
matism. He replied: "I have too much
work to do now to think of going to it
watering place. I shall begin to think
of that when X grow old.'*
THE MORNING NEWS; 31UNUAA, MAY 21. 1900.
STAY AND GET COUNTED.
SAVAXXAIIIAXS SHOILD SOT LEAVE
TOO KARLA THIS SIMMER.
The Census Begin* June 1 and !*af
Two Weeks Ordinarily Several
Thousand Sn\niinaliinn* %re Out
of the City by the Middle of June.
Willi a I.ate Season the Exodus
May be Delated Somewhat This
4 ear—lf Compelled to Go Early the
Information May Be Left With a
Member of the Untnily or Mulled
to the Super* isor.
It is to be hoped that there will be no
large exodus of Savannahians from the
city before June 15. The census count
begins on June 1 and will not be com
pleted in the city untik the night of June
14. The summer of 1890 was a very hot
one, and it is estimated that somewhere
between 2,000 and 5,000 of the city's popu
lation were away at the time, the ma
jority of whom failed to get their names
on the census list. This accounts in
parts for the unsatisfactory showing
made for Savannah by the census of 1890.
Summer has been slow in coming this
year, and the annual exedue has hardly
begun. If the weather will continue pleas
ant three weeks longer the number of
ho* weather absenteea wijl be compara
tively small and the enumerators will be
enabled to get an approximately fair
count of the people. A hot wave early
in June, however, may cost Savannah
some 2,000 to 3,000 in the count. A well
known minister said yesterday that the
effects of the summer weather upon
church attendance was already very evi
dent, and he estimated that 10 per cenr.
of the families which compose his large
congregation had already removed ou< of
the city or were preparing to do so. Many
of these, however, will still be within th*
confines of fhe county and in reach of
the enumerators.
A prominent real eetote agent, in speak
ing of the matter, said; “It is very un
fortunate for Savannah that the count
could not have been fakt'n two months
earlier. With an early summer, the num
ber of residents who will be out of town
when the census is taken, will not be
less than 5,000. Our city has shown a
remarkably healthy growth during the
last decade and I should like v<?ry much
to see a full count of the population.
Unln?s some arrangement is made to
catch the absentees, however, the census
will fail to do us justice.”
The summe exodus is common to all
he cities of the country, though natural
ly the Southern cities will lose most by
It, as the heated period arrives earlier
•with them than with the cities to the
North. The director of the census, how
ever, has shown an intelligent apprecia
tion of this state of affairs and has pre
pared to meet it. The following infor
mation on this head has been furnished
the newspapers by the census bureau:
“The count of the people in the United
States will begin in all parts of the coun
try June 1, and end in the cities two
weeks later an t in the rest of the coun
try before the close of the month. The
people are to be counted at their places
of residence, but as many persons and
families will be away from their homes
during June there is some danger that
such persons will not be counted. If they
are not counted, ihe locality in which
they live will be misr pr -ented to that
extent, and in seme cas* s this misrepre
sentation may be enough to affect the
representation in Congress cf the srato
from which they come. Local pride and
state pride, therefore, should lnfiucnre all
such absentees to take reasonable pre
cautions against being orhitted from
enumeration in their places of residence.
Such omissions are most likely to occur
In the large cities where families close
their* homes and go elsewh r* for the
summer. The occurrence of the Uarls Ex
position this year is likely to increase the
number absent from fhe country.
"In all cases of contemplated absence
the head of the family is requested by
the census office to communicate with the
supervisor of the district in which he Jive?.
He is also requested to leave information
regarding his answers to the questions
which are to be asked with some respon
sible neighbor who will agree to see that
it reaches the enumerator cn his rounds.
Such information migh‘ b c tter be left as
a memorandum in w ir'ng, as in that case
it in lor*; likely io be overlovk-.d. The ques
tions to which answers ar' desired applv
primarily to the population, hut nlso to
all farms and manufacturing establish
ments. They are being published from
lime to time in the prers of the country.
By taking this trouble the absent citiz n
will do jus* ce to his locality and his state,
and materially aid th census office in the
performance cf its duti-s.”
Where n member of the family remains
in the efty the information concerning
the absent members can very well he left
with him. Where it in not convenient to
do this il would be well for the head of
the family to address n note containing
the desired Information to Supervisor
Henry Blun at the Custom House. As
the character of the information desired
has been frequently stated in the news
papers, no intelligent person is likely to
go far astray in making such returns.

BIY ONLY THE BEST GINGER ALE.
The best is the Wheeler Brand of Bel
fast Ginger Ale, made by Wheeler & Cos.,
of Belfast, Ireland, from the celebrated
Cromac Springs of that city. Tnese
springs are the properly of Wheeler &
Cos., hence no other Ginger Ale manufac
turer In Ireland has those waters but
themselves. The Wheeler Ginger Ale Is
made from pure Jamaica Ginger Root and
not from Red Pepper, as others are; one
Is deleterious—the other Is a tonic.
For Healthfulness ond Purity the cele
brated Wheeler brand of Belfast Ginger
Ale Is the best.
