Neither RubbgII Sngo nor Mrs. Hetty Green appears to Imvo been mulcted by Colonel Mann’s "Town Topics." ’ Some said It was sleet, others said ■It hall,, while still others cnllod It "hominy snow," but nono can deny that the elements gave us a shower of Ice. In tills pnrt of the moral vineyard yosterday. Governor Higgins, of New York, has .bad to yield to the demand for an In vestigation of the office of Suporlnten dent of Banking. It Is a safe proposi tion, that legislatures have an Inherent right to Investigate all branchos of a state government. A petition Is being circulated In , Clafhe county asking the legislature to pass a bill abolishing the Athens dispensary, which the legislature will ^ lot do, It Is needless to say, though I' - the, petition might he signed by every I' cltlsan of Clnrke county, unless the S i,.representatives of that comity In the [< legislature Introduce mid favor the ere are lots of people—good, old- Honed Democrats—In tills neck of ie woods, who have becomo disgusted both the Atlanta candidates for governor and with their personal war* /v fare that Is being carried on from day l to day. in the Atlanta Constitution and c ‘tlanta Journal, and many of them are S.toward Col. J. H. Estttl. Is , Senator Spooner, in defending the * ' tlon of the President in sending con- ees to the Morocco conference, says its Is not a "Buby Nation." It Is true that tile nation has long Syilnce attained a robust majority. Yet Jithe champions of a spoliatory tariff ’-“ep pleading that the nutloii Is Infant so far ns manufacturing are concerned. Isn’t It ; time to wenn the tariff baby? i only condition in which the rep- es of this government at can avoid doing grave mis s’ preserving an attitude of utrallty between the two parties. The slightest lean- THE RAILROADS AND THE 8T0VE RATE CA8E. Well Informed newspaper readers and business men generally are more or less familiar with what Is now known at the stove rate case that has been pending before the Railroad Commission of Georgia and In the courts of the state for some time past. It will he remembered that the Com mission was onjolned by Judge Cann, of the superior court of Chatham coun ty, from enforcing Circular No. 309, which deals with rates on stoves. The case wob taken to the supreme court, which tribunal recently decided It against the rnllronds, holding that Judge, Cann, who Issued the injunc tion, did not have jurisdiction. And now the railroads have gone Into the United States court with the stove rate case, and Judge Newman, of the Federal court, has.granted to the Atlantic Coast Ljne and the Cen tral of Georgia railroads a temporary Injunction against the enforcement of Circular 309 of tho Railroad Commis sion of Georgia. Separate petitions for injunction wern applied for by the two ronds named. After Judge Newman had read the papers he granted a tempor ary Injunction, and set tho case for a hearing In the United States court In Atlanta on February 12 at 10 a. m. In the Atlantic Coast Lino petition, which Is almost Identical with that of the Central, It Is set up that objec tion to Circular 309 Is raised because It Is Illegal "and helps Atlanta at the expense of othor points In, the state." The Atlanta News, In its report of tho proceeding, says that the petition then goes Into the history of circulars on stove rates Issued by the Railroad Commission, beginning with J01, Is sued on September 10, 1904, which ap plied only between Atlanta, Macon, Columbus, Athens and Augusta. It Is then recounted that the Atlanta freight "bureau desired the Railroad Commission to declare that unjust dis crimination existed against Atlnnta In favor of competing cities In other states. The petition recites the fight for lowor rates front outside points, and the part playpd by the Atlanta freight, bureau. The history Is recounted up to No vember 30, 1904, when till Railroad Commission revokod Circular 301, be- -cause of a statement made by Hon. Ed Baxter, \.of Nashville, representing sonio of the roads, the roads dismiss ing delaying tnctlcB. Mr. Baxter made a statement before Judge Newman that It tho commission would withdraw Circular 301, nn ad justment could iprobahly be reached. The petition tor Injunction asserts that substantial reductions were made In rntos to Atlanta from both the east and west. Onco more the Railroad Coinmls- s'ou, oil motion of the Atlanta freight bureau, returned to the light for better rates, and on May 20, 1905, Issued Cir cular, 305, which was superseded by Circular 300 on June 0, the only differ- ;““” cnee being that the inst named ex- 1 tended the rates to Romo, Bnlton and TO Rockmarl; in addition to Atlanta. I Then the history of the suit for in- i I Junction brought by the Palmer Hard* ware Co., of Savannah, In Chatham sti* i perlor court, Is fully shown, with the ultimate victory for the commission in the supreme court decision revers ing Judge Cann’s grant of the injunc tion. Then the railroads say that there is no justice in Circulars 305. 306, or 309, the last named taking the place of the first two and extending the rates to all stove jobber^ in the state. They bold ly slate that all three are illegal and yujust. | Objection to 309 Is based ou the opinion that it “helps Atlanta at the expense of other points in the state.” Messrs. Cunningham & Lawrence, of Savannah, and Dorsey, Brewster & Howell appeared for the petitioners. “Sixties” are as loyal to the flag of our common Country as any who fought on the -Northern side In that memorable conflict, and he died In possession of the rank and title of a retired brigadier-general of the* United States Army, a title and honor well earned In the war between this coun try and Spain. Pence to Ills memory! Chief Engineer Stevens is of the opinion that It Is worth while, and Incidentally worth a hundred millions of dollars, .to save five or six years from the time to be devoted to con struction of the Panama canal, and he Is satisfied that the 1 saving can be made if a lock canal instead of one at sea level Is decided upon. The ma jority of the people of the country will agree with the chief engineer. It Is not doubted that a sea-level canal would be the better, after completion, blit the extra time required for Its construction nnd the tremendous addi tional expense which It would Impose ate considerations not to he rudely thrust- aside. ( Pneumonla Is claiming many victims tills winter, as It has “since the mem ory of man runneth not to the con trary,” and yet the doctors and scien tists appear fo be taking no concerted action agalnBt the ravageB of thlB fell disease. Pneumonia kills more people In this country annually than yellow fever and smallpox combined, and It often becomes epidemic In communi ties. Yet there are no quarantine reg ulations enforced against Its spread and the established health authorities of the country seem to pay little at tention to It. The most surprising thing In con nection with the “Town Topics" case, so far aB we have been able to judge, Is that Colonel Mann did not deem At lanta (Ga.) worthy of his august at tention. That there are hlgh-fllerB a plenty nnd the coin of the realm In abundance In the Georgia capital are facts too well known to call for dis cussion, and we are sure Colonel Mann would have given the matter prompt 0 f t h e j r Spring and Summer needs, from the attention had it been brought to his r o • well-known assortment of Made-to-Measure notice. Our only interest in this con nection, of course, is due to the'fact that we realize—who wouldn’t?—that Atlanta must feel the neglect keenly. Congress will not remove the eight- hour limit from the day’s work of the “dagoes” and Jamaica negroes on the Isthmus. But there is no restriction upon their working as long as they like, and Mr. Shonts said in Cincinnati that they liked to work ten hours if they could get a quarter more pay than for working eight. There is nothing to prevent the commission from reducing the rate of pay per hour and getting ten hours’ work for what is now paid. As between his senatorial fight and the squabble in his newspaper family, Mr. Graves should not have to hunt far for the strenuous life. Delicious Can Vegetables.
