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. KTi: .That follow Dick 'Russell Is In ear liest about running for governor, and be Is going to hustle ampng tlic peo- I pie all over the s*»te. He Is a good stump speaker and gctB close to the peaplo when lie talks to them. 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 the deal, ns It 1ms agreed to do 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 pW: Nows'. This states the truth pretty airly. •Ono greut trouble about the country . newspaper bushiest Is thnt too ninny men who have proved to he failures lii dther professions or business lilies utor to our annual health, her output . / • surpassing In value the corn crop, the wheat crop or any other single food crop produced in the country. 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. 9 ’)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 morning’s papers. We Lead in Style, Fit and Quality .-•i/iVtw 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.

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.

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 of the better market at home.
