Official Organ of Dougherty County, Offlolal Organ of Baker County, Official Organ of the Railroad Com- mlaBlon of Georgia for the Seoond ngreaalonal DletrleL "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 believed to have sold It, and that re- mark hud more to do with legislative interference with railroad management • thnn any net of extortion or Injustice. The public refuses to lie damned at the behest of a man who feels that feels Hint he can sny anything nnd do anything because he possesses $SO,000, 000. city has paid all o: Its legitimate running expenses, nnd expended about 817,000 In public Improvements, with, out having to borrow a dollar, on a tax rate of 87.50 on the $1,000.

The Wall Btrcet gamblers wore only •‘ r _, momentarily dnunted by "tho Schlff pagile" threat. The eminent luinkor took pains to declare that It waa an Imminent but not mi Immediate ca taatrophe. So the gamblers gamble on The fear Of disaster Is like the fear of death. It Is not n governing passion except It be Instant und Inescapable. Atlanta estimates that her Income this year will lie two million dollars and she Is going to spend every cent of It. That she will get her money’s moment lo be worth Is not for » doubted. She has been spending freely but wisely for n number of years, and us a result she Is today the llvost city In the South and one with n fit ture with which the prospects o' no other community In this section are comparable. I The President says he Is perfectly satisfied that work on the Panama ca- nal is being dono with the utmost ex pedition, nnd in the moRt careful aud thorough manner. In his message to Congress transmitting the report, of the Canni Commission nnd of the Pan ama Railroad Co., he takes occasion to reiterate that the government should he satisfied only with the host talent to be secured for work on the C'tial and that the men who possess this I ; talent must be paid salaries common, surate with their ability, it. is proba .ble that if the President thought ro: ; tenness existed in connection with ca nal operations he would say so. He affairs be, far as the honesty and industry o! vernjnent employes are concerned, fov (he presen the country will lave to let It go at that, and hope that President is not mistaken. i > expresses the belief that ‘ J " Isthmus are as they should th© 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.

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.
