AMONQ THE L08T.
It Is stated that among the victims
of the disaster which overtook the
steamship Valencia off the coast of
British Columbia this week were many
children, all of whom are numbered
nmong the lost The physical weak
ness of the women and children was
no match for the terrible force of
the storm and the hardship of expos
ure In the rigging during long, bitter
hours, with the temperature at zero.
There have come In from the sea
the stories of few tragedies more piti
ful than this account or the loss of
the Valencia, and the. saddest chap
ter Is that which tells how holpless
chlldron went to watery graves, not
one oscaplng.
When human beings reach man
hood’s or womanhoods’ estate, they
are charged with responsibility for
their own safety. They go when,
where and how they elect. If danger
threaten, they must guard against it,
and tho responsibility which comes
with years of discretion warns thorn
that life Is uncertain, and bids them
he ready for tho summons when It
comes.
But It Is different with children.
Thoughts of individual responsibility
do not come with tender years, and
the footsteps of children aro supposed
to bo guided at all times by adult
hands. Responsibility for their wel
fare, spiritual and bodily, Is In the
keeping of their elders.
The very thought, therefore, of the
drowning of children in such disasters
as that which overtook the Valencia
calls tears to the eyes of all but the
absolutely heartless. The picture of
tho wrecked ship, the roaring tem
pest, the pitiless cold, the little forms
lashed to the rigging, their feeble
voices crying for the help that will
never come, Is one not to be forgot
ten, though It has been brought to
most of us only In the meagre news
reports of tho sad disaster.
A GOOD SUGGESTION.
The Tlfton Gazette, discussing the
miserable schedules and poor passen
ger accommodations on the Brunswick
& Albany - division of the Atlantic
Coast Line, about which the readers
of The Herald have heard something
recently, snys:
\ ■
A POINTED QUESTION.
The Hawklnsvllel News and Dis
patch, which Is the home paper of
Hon. Pope Brown and was a strong
supporter of that gentleman’s candi
dacy for governor before he retired
from the race in favor of Hon. Hoke
Smith, has an interesting editorial this
week under the caption, “Answer this
Question.” The question of Interest Is
propounded In the following extract:
“Why did the Atlanta Journal Inst
May, when everybody thought It was
going to support Pope Brown for the
governorship and before Mr. Brown’s
retirements favor of Mr. Smith, come
out In a flaming editorial Btating ‘We
Want a Candidate for Governor!’ and
made a platform then and there which
tho said candidate would have to stand
on. The Journal at that time knew
what Mr. Brown’s platform was and
If If was the samo then as now, why
didn’t they support Mr. Brown? The
truth of the matter Is, the plntform
was changed, as was the candidate,
Mr. Smith succeeding Mr. Brown, but
not Ills platform."
An honest, straightforward answer
to tills question would clear the politi
cal atmosphere considerably, but It Is
perhaps safe to say that neither the
Atlanta Journal nor Mr. Smith will
respond with such an answer.
er, perhaps the most Interesting of the
handful who survived Gordon, has
crossed over the river. Stephen D.
Lee is one, at least—are there any
others?—remaining of the soldiers who
were conspicuous In the great civil
conflict. More than forty yearsl have
passed since the star of the Confed
eracy set, and the great commanders,
or most of them, were then In their
prime. What Is true of the Confed
eracy Is nearly equally true of the
Union In this reBpect, for few who
were major-generals In the blue army-
are living today. It is a question of
but a few years when not a man
whose collar bore a star at the close
of the war will remain among the
! living.,
The great leaders of the Confeder
acy are rapidly passing away. Gen
eral Gordon, who was the most con
spicuous of the surviving generals of
the Lost Cause, has been dead but a
few months, and now General Wheel-
Editor A. P. Perham, Sr., of the
Waycross Herald, has been appointed
by Governor Terrell as the trustee
from the Eleventh congressional dis
trict to the Confederate Soldiers’
Home at Atlanta. The appointment is
a good one and the honor—for it is
an honor—is worthily conferred. The
Eleventh congressional district has no
better man in it, taking men as they
are and considering them “all in all,”
than A. P. Perham, Sr., and his war
record is as good as the best.
No Pill Is as pleasant and positive
as DeWitt's Little Early Risers.
These Famous Little Pills are so mild

cleansing effect, while strong people

It la lmrd to reconcile the miser
able accommodation and rotten sched
ules prevailing on the Atlantic Coast
Line between Albany nnd Brunswick
with the palatial trains, quick sched
ules and prompt service which has
made snob a favorable reputation for
the road along Its main line. The
execrable situation existing here must
be due to tho oversight of some of
ficial, and the Gazette believes that If
the matter was brought to the atten
tion of the management by the busi
ness organizations of Albany, Tlfton
nnd Brunswick, a remedy would be
promptly applied."
Mock & Rawson.
The suggestion that the business;
organizations of Albany, Tlfton and
Brunswick take up this matter with
the proper officials of the Atlantic
Coast Line Is a good one. We have 1
been told that Mr. W. J. Craig, who
has recently been promoted to the po
sition of Passenger Traffic Manager
of the Atlantic Coast Line, is a man I
who would be likely to give attention
to any matter properly coming under j
the supervision of his department that j
was brought to bis notice In a busi
ness-like way. He has probably never
been over the Brunswick & Albany
division of the A. C. L. system, and
if our Albany Business League and
the commercial organizations of Tlf
ton and Brunswick could manage to
bring him here so he could see for
himself what a miserable service the
people who are forced to patronize
that line are getting, he would doubt
less be convinced that they have good
reason for kicking and might take the
necessary steps at once to give them
relief.
