But It • 17111 he a brave man who sticks a •-;/ .match to the poWder train. * '( Hon. Clark Howell ,was "whooblng ’em up” In Sondorsvllle yesterday, and hts reception by the Washington coun- ty democracy seems to have been one & ■HsHSRf' of the most cordial yet given . him In ESlE; ** tho state. It must be a comforting thought for I ! ' • China that the general Staff of the United States army has plans per- , fected for the Invasion of that ^onntr.v via the Philippines. M m . ■ . ' The Savannah Press says that John Qreer seems vOry (Irmly of tho opinion that there Is some subtle force at work to rush Brantley la as a dark horse Or governor when the right moment arrives. A New York minister tells of a '‘ luncheon where twenty-eight young @37 women drank thirty-six quarts of champagne and smoked one hundred ' cigarettes. The Savannah Press, seeming to think that something was ' omitted by the preacher, asks: "Didn't tltey eat, anything 1 ?" - V V Thf placing of the Atlanta police force under civil service rale has stirred up "the dlvll’s. own knlnd av a raoket" la the Capital City. But. utter all . lS said and done, any argument . against civil service Is necessarily self ish and In defiance of the rule of re ward for meritorious service. ?,• HOKE SMITH AND CLARK HOW ELL NOT THE WHOLE THING. The Savannah News, Col. J. H. Es- tlll’s paper, resentB what It conceives tq be an Inspired article In the Thom- nsvllle Press In which the statement Is made that the present race for the governorship of Georgia Is between Hoke Smith and Clark Howell, and that a vote for Colonel Estlll or either of the other candidates Is, therefore, a vote for Howell. The ThomasvIUe paper, under the caption, "Be Hones! With Thyself," declares that the can didates, other than Smith and Howell, were pulled Into the contest by the railroads, and Intimates that the rail- roads are paying their campaign ex penses. This riles the Savannah New*, which alludes to Colonel EsttU as the South Georgia candidate, modestly re fraining from referring to Its chief by name, and In the course of Its editorial of protest It says: "Wo havk the best of reasons for thinking the race Is not entirely be tween Mr. Smith and Mr. Howell. When the votes are counted It will appear that the race Is between the South Georgln candidate nnd some one of the other candidates. The candi date that makes the most noise isn’t always tho one that makes the strong est Impression. Mr. Smith may be at tracting a good deal of attention be cause of his attitude on the disfran chisement and rallrond questions and because of the advertisement glvep him by his Atlanta newspaper organ, but It doesn’t follow that he has con vinced any considerable number of people that he Is the man that should he elected governor. "As to the statement that the other candidates other than Mr. Howell were put Into the campaign by the railroads and the Intimation that the railroads are paying their expenses. It Ib only necessary, In order to convince unprejudiced nnd fair-minded men, to sny the statement Is untrue and tho Intimation unfounded as far ns the South Georgln candidate Is concerned, ahd we have no doubt the same can truthfully he said In respect to other candidates. Still, they are welt able to answer for themselves. "While the South Georgia candidate didn’t announce Ills candidacy until early tlilq year, Ills friends expected, long before Mr. Smith became'a can didate, that he would be In the race this year. He made such n strong race four years ago that they had little, If any. doubt he world be a candidate ugnln. I "The intimation that the railroads are paying his campaign expenses Is so ridiculous that there Is no need of saying there Is no truth In It. It Is doubtful If there Is "a fair-minded voter 111 the state who ever harbored such a thought. -The South Georgia onndldate Is entirely aile to pay his own earn- pnlgti expenses. The railroads would not think of offer ng to pay them. They know that the South Georgia candidate Is “toting Ills own skillet" as It were, paying his own expenses, nnd that If he should be elected would be governor without obligations to the railroads or to any other corporations or to any Individual. It Is because the people know this that Ills prospects for getting the nomination are so bright. He Is'entirely free from the domination or Influenots of political lings, railroad rings oi rings of any kind. It Is unnecessary to tell the thinking people of Georgln this. They know It. Statements to the contrary are ntnde for the purpose 'of Injuring him or ^assisting nnother candidate, and they are noticed simply to prevent the unthinking from being misled.” Andrew Hamilton has returned un expectedly from Europe. He stated In New York that he "heard something about criminal proceedings," and add ed, “Here t am." He declares lie is - rqpdy to “face- the music, discordant or otherwise." If Andy will follow tjie movements of District Attorney Jerome form few days he will probably lose little time In deciding that the muBlc will hardly be "otherwise." A horse nnd wagon passing through one oi tile busy streets of Atlanta, plunged bodily Into the ground through a great hole which opened beneath them. A gas main was broken and the horse was t asphyxiated, while the con- I tents of the wagon flouted off through a sanitary sewer w hich was laid open. AU of which reminds us that Sam Jones once declared that “Attantn’i upper crust Is mighty thin." b ‘ •■ The Atlanta Sunday News has made | a brave start, and should It maintain —and why shouldn’t It?—the standard of excellence established by the initial number It will quickly become a recog nized aud Important factor in Georgln “new Journalism.’’ The Sunday News, as the result of some unfortuiyite mis hap, did not reach Albany until yes- terday, but its welcome, though de- irred, was no less cordial for its late- The sensation-loving world Is now promised that Indictments will very shortly’be returned against prominent life Insurance officials In New York state. District Attorney Jerome hns presented the evidence In possession to the grand Jury, and the Indictments are next In order. Most of the district attorney’s information was secured through die Armstrong Investigation committee. A striking contrast between negroes of the worthy class aud the othei kind was presented In Meridian following Wednesdays’ tornado. The respect able representatives of the race raised $700 among themselves fir the relief fund. The worthless blacks of the community sljpply turned the disaster to account by folding their arms, re fusing to work, and becoming objects of charity. . The relief committee promptly announced that only those who could prove that they were de serving would receive assistance—an ultimatum which had the Immediate effect of causing the Idlers to make ap plication for work.
