SATURDAY, JANUARY 6.
' ■ Senator A. J. focLaurln has given
' out an interview In whloh he refers
to Governor Vardanian as a “Vile slan
derer and despicable cregture," and
those who know both the Mississippi
' gentlemen are expecting trouble.

STANDARD OIL METHODS.
fTlie slate of Missouri Is endeavoring
to secure evidence that the Standard
Oil Company has throttled all com
petition In that state. A special com
missioner appointed by Governor Polk
sought to take testimony In New
York yesterday, and bad before him
for examination several prominent of.
fleers and directors of the Standard
Oil, and ^certain other companies
which It Is alleged to dominate.
The attorney general o’ Missouri
was present to conduct the examlna-
■|on for the state. He asked a great
liiasjiy questions, bill only a few were
answered,- The Standard Oil-Company
v/as represented bv a' small army of
lawyers, Home of whom were ready
with object Ions whenever the attor-
ny general sought to bring out any
important! fads bearing on the meth
ods of the trust. A witness would be
asked a question, anil counsel for tlio
(rust would object. The commisslorl-
er would overrule.the objection; then
I he witness, on the advice o' counsel,
would flatly refuse to answer. And
Hint nettled It.
And so It goes. So entrenched In
the power which I'jt money and its
control of government Institutions
gives It Is the oil Vust lhat It defies
courts, legislatures and even the Fed
eral government lself. But, this sort
of thing cannot last always. Thdl
weight of public Indignation will even
tually break down the barriers which
tile trust has thrown about Itself, and
what cannot lib accomplished by ono
process will he by another. An out
raged public, will finally do what the
trust Is doing—thnt, Is have Its own
way by the rule of do it.
THE HEN AS A MONEY-MAKER.
, Not long ago The Herald paid fee
ble tribute to the noble lien and gave
some statistics showing that the
American lien was the largest contrlb-
" Tho Evening Call lias the honor
of being Grlflln's ofilelnl' paper;
. and honor la all toe Call gets In

tho city’s .advertising for nothing.
This Is a fair sample of the busi
ness methods urn. prevail In sonio
newspaper offices. Such melhods
are not only responsible for most
' of tho findnetai failures In coun
try newspnpordom, but mako suc
cess more dllficut for those news
papers that attain success, by In
culcating In tile public mind the
Idea that news papers ought jo
work for nothing.—Now-nun

This states the truth pretty airly.

In connection with the rapidly grow
ing Industry of poultry and egg rais
ing In Georgia, the following experi
ments, which lmve been reported to
Section Director J. B. Mnrhury from
n farm in South Georgia, are of spe
cial Interest:
On Ibis farm, In the wlrograss sec
tion, tho cost of conducting the poul
try business was $1.01 por hon. The
not profit of the business was, $1.81
nor hen. The profit was really more
than this for (he food for the pout
M-v was raised on the farm, but wns
put down among the expenses nt ex
actly the market price of food .'or
poultry. This also Included the cost
of Improvements In the poultry build
ings and tho purchase of many high-
priced setlings of eggs for the pur
pose of Improving the breed.
Mr. Mnrhury hns given much atten
tion to the mlsingl if poultry. Ho said
yesterday:
that the dally coo> amptlon Is .78, or
about three-quarters of an egg per
so.il, meaning millions of eggs for
New Ydrk each day alone. In the
1899 statistics, eggs and poultry were
next In value to cotton, amounting to
near $300,000,000.
Russia is the largest producer of
eggs In the world. With the unsettled
conditions of the government and the
.excited condition of the hen, owing
to the frequent explosions jo' dyna
mite bombs and place changes, there
will probably be a great decrease over
CLAYING THE STREETS A MIS-
TAKE.
After the experiment that has been
made with claying the streets o’ Al
bany, we think our people are pretty
well agreed that this plan of street
improvement Is a failure and that our
streets, where they have been thuB
treated, are In worse condition today
than they hnd ever been before this
work was done.
It Is not the purpose of this article
the normal and thus afford a better j t0 cr |tlclse or pass censure upon any-
exporting market.
“Among the southern states, I’cxas
leads with 13,000,000 chickens. Ten-
nessee Is second, Mississippi. Alabama
nnd Georgia coming along next. With
the rapid Increase In'Georgia, she
will probably niov- up two or three
positions, for better conditions for
his Industry cannot he found In the
country, If they can he equaled, .sta
tistics for the last year will not lj,e
known for some time—but when it Is,
I feel Riire Georgia will show a. won
derful Increase, which will stimulate
farmers to still greater efforts.”
Chauncey Depew has apparently
been conscience stricken Inte In life.
Or Is he shamming? Anyhow, he hns
announced that he will celebrate his
72nd birthday, Ap-ll 23, by resigning
his 79 directorship-* in railroad com
panies, ns he wishes to devote more
time to his senatorial duties.

’)mn,
We gather from a double-
double-leaded editorial in the e^.-oem-
cd Atlanta News ’hat Editor John
Temple Graves is forninst the splke-
talled coat as a civic virtue. And he
a candidate for the United States
senate, too.
The esteemed Amerlcus Times-Rc-
corder hands tills neighborly para
graph'across the way: “A little thing
tike a cyclone can’t Jar Albany or
shake the confidence of the people In
her bright future. Already the state
was looking toward her."
The formal amwuncement of Hon.
James M. Smith o' his candidacy for
governor will appear in tomorrow

body for the failure of this experiment
claying the streets. For a time it
seemed that the experiment would
prove entirely satisfactory, and the
city authorities Avere encouraged to
extend the work. A few spells of wet
weather, however, have served to
make our people wish for the sandy
streets of old. Th*s week the streets
that have been clayed have been a per
fect loblolly, and travel through them
has been anything but pleasant.
What we would now have our wor
thy city fathers do is to profit by the '
experiment that has been made in
claying the streets, and do no more
o! it. The clay covering that has
been put on the streets makes dirty
dust when it is dry and nasty, slop
py mud when it is wet. Our streets
were neither • so dusty in time of
drouth nor so muddy in wet weather
before they were clayed.
In the future, let the improvements
that, are made on the streets he per
manent.
Might Havfc Been Worse. ’ (
From the Savannah News.
The wind storm that swept over
Albany on Wednesday afternoon was
of considerable violence and did much
damage, but Albany is doubtless con
gratulating herself upon the .'act. that
“it might have been worse.” It is es
pecially fortunate that the loss of life
was not greater, considering the time
of the blow and tho character of the
buildings destroyed.
Woman’s Idea of Success.
From the Kansas City Star.
A Kansas woman, Mrs. J. A. Stan
ley, of Lincoln, has been awarded a
prize of $250 by a Boston firm for the
best answer to th<» question, “What
Constitutes Success?” She wrote: “He
has achieved success who has lived
well, laughed often and loved much;
who has gained- tbf respect of Intel
ligent men and the love of little chil
dren; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has left’
the world better than he found it,
whether by an improved poppy, a per
iod poem or a rescued soul; who has
never lacked appreciation of earth’s
beauty or failed to express it; who
has always looked for the best in oth
ers and given the best he had; whose
“One of the reasons that Georgia
hns not received f\r greater revenue
engage In it. A popular but very* or* from this part of the farm business is
because farmers considered poultry
nnd eggs ns unworthy of their notice.
rdneqUB tdea is that any man who has
a good education van edit a newspa
m
per. Another popular and equally er
roneous idea is that a newspaper bus
iness will take of Itself—that the
Ordinary ability* and business meth
ods do not have to ho applied to it
to make a sucres* of it. We know a
• good man once who sent Ids son
through college nnd then gave him a
start, to be a lawyer. He failed to
make a success ns lawyer. He then
I- tried book-keeping a while, ami final
ly made a pass at preaching. None of
these professions seemed to suit him,
* or he failed to suit thorn, and his fath-
: er finally concluded that lie was in
tended for nil editor, so he bought
him a newspaper. He “sailed in,”
wrote a few brilliant editorials, as he
thought, and waited to see the world
blaze. But the old world didn’t blaze.
And the man who had failed at every-

methods cannot succeed, for tho aim-

It was left to the women folks who
were content for n long time to gath
er the eggs and let it go at that. Tn
these latter years the raising of poul
try has boon reduced to a science,
and baa engaged some of the bright
est minds. Chemists made analysis of
the ingredients o r the egg. They
learned that as a large portion of the
egg was water, froqh water was an
absolute reouislte 'or tho men. The
chemist found thnt lime was "coded
in making the shell. Lime was sup
plied to the hen, and the hes* re
sults followed. O't-*r experiments had
similar .results.
“For a long time it was believed,
that lions would la" eggs only during
certain seasons of the year. It was
found that the coy and reulctnnt fe
male cared not for tny special season,
but insisted on certain conditions of
warmth, etc. When these conditions
were supplied artificially, the hen ac
knowledged her appreciation or the
efforts in her behalf by laying eggs
the year round, a^d made herself so
much more % valuabe at the same time.
“The annual-’output of eggs in this
country is upwards of 2,000.000,000
dozens and represents one of the very
largest revenues. The exportation has
grown from some 5,000 dozen eggs
in 1872, to over 5,000,000 dozen in
1900. Since that t l ne the number has
diminished* This may be on account

Children’** Name* In CiiKlnml.
The vicar of Mcmbury, Derbyshire,
writes in his parish magazine, “A hun
dred and .thirty-eight baptisms, and l
have not yet had'a .‘Sarah Jane’—thnt
delightful, old fashioned name!”
Amused, as he said, by tho vicar’s
sacT wall, n parishioner replies to the
vicar, saying the reason is not far to
seek. The custom of the parents re
siding In these parts is to consult with
their incumbent regarding the choice
of the name for the offspring.
Tho natural consequence Is that all
children horn on a saint’s day are call
ed after the saint. Thus a girl bora on

day Clementina, and so on.—London
