"THE PUBLIC BE DAMNED."
The Hunar Trust makes no reports;
that Is, It doesn't report anything
worth while, and th United States
census and the sta'e of Massachusetts
have tried In vain to compel It to tell
nny:hlng about Its business. The
Standard Oil Company will not list
Its shares on the exchanges because
would have to toll something about
Itself If It did. It refuses to answer
questions In legal proceedings. It ro-
gnrdit Itself ns above law and because
It Is so very rich. But the Philadel
phia Record well says that os n mat
ter o' fact, the reople can got the
upper hand of the great corporations
when they deem It worth while, and
nothing Is so likely to arouse public
sentiment and lead lo action which
mny bo unjust and unwise ns tills at
ilt ttdo or secrecy and defiance assum
ed by men of enormous woatlh.
Whether Commodore Vanderbilt
ever said "The public bo damned!”
or not, he was chnrged with It, and

If Candidate Hoko Smith finds him
self short of faithful followers whoa
the final line-up In the gubernatorial
campaign occurs, he will havo only
himself to blame, for he appears
havo deliberately invited the* opposi
tion of nearly e^ery political infill
enco in the state that amounts to any
thing. If any woll Informed nmn who
is familiar with the political hearings
and factors of Georgia will cast
searching eye over the state from
Dado nnd Gilmer counties to McIn
tosh nnd Liberty and from the Savan
nah to the Chattahoochee, and then
compare tho men of affairs and influ
ence who are opposod to Mr. Smith
in his candidacy tor governor with
thoso who are favorable to his elec
tion, he can form hut one conclusion—
that Mr. Smith bus fulled to attract
any considerable number of the strong
political forces. It is being claimed
for him—and by him—in a boastful
on of way that, while tho politicians
are ngainst him, tho people—tho plain,
honest people—are for him. But when
tho final line-up comes political his
tory will repent Itself. Tho politicians
know the people Just ns well today
as they ever have nnd are going to
be Just as much Influenced by them
and exercise Just as much Influence
over them na ever, nnd In the wind
up Mr. Smith will find hlmHolf in the
boiil that makes a trip from the
stormy Sea o.’ Georgia Politics into
the restful waters of Salt River every
four years.
New York has taken note of the fact
that Its mayor was a newspaper man
for three years: tho heads of the fire
and bridge departments were recently
reporters: tho heivlth commissioner
was an editorial writer; tho license
comissionor, the assessor, the water
register, tho mayor's secretary nnd
assistant secretary, the secretaries o!
eight city depnj-’onts. i^mt thirty
other officeholders of some Impor
tance. were all recently engaged upon
the daily newspapers. This is Inter
esting. but not strange. Two of tho
three commissioners of the District of
Columbia are newspaper men, and
the capital is a very well governed
city.

Albany’s Fine Showing.
From ih« fVimfil* ’Snv-pri**
Tuesday's Albany Herald contained
a full and complete report of the city's
official business for the year 1905,
from the retiring mayor ami other
officials, that is Indeed a fine show
ing 'or the city and presents an ex
ample of municipal management that
might well he followed by other cities
with profit. In fact, the Enterprise
does not believe that there is another
city in the State that can make so
good a showing. Every department
of the government seems to Tme
been self-sustaining, ami many ol
them have paid handsome profits.
The city paid for police service
56,910.60, and received in fines $7,*
523.50. a profit of IG02.90. The net
income from her water department
and electric light plant was $7,000 for
1905. Prom the showing made, the
promptly cures coughs, colds, croup, grippe,
throat and bronchial troubles and prevents
pneumonia. 25c a bottle at all drugstores.
Be prepared.
