"Drunk enness,” be said, "is the great risk ahead in the career of every young man. It Is far more important that he insure himself against it than against death. A drink policy," said he, "ts worth ten life policies." These are words of wisdom, hardly less applica ble to conditions in the United States than In Scotland. Death will come when It will come. Every young mnn can Insure himself against the drluk habit and save money, credit and char ter by the abstention. JUDGE SHEFFIELD'S SECOND LETTER. The editorial In Thursday’s Herald on the letter of Judge H. C. Sheffield of Arlington, calling on the Georgia Chautauqua to have the bar-rooms of Albany closed during Chautauqua week, or at least on Military Day, for reasons fully set forth by him, has called forth another letter from that gentleman, which we publish else where In this paper. We regret the rather personal turn which this discussion (we shall not call It a controversy," because Judge Shefflold says he doesn’t want to en gage in one, and we certainly do not) has taken, but this hns been unavoid able on our part. The editor of The Herald esteems Judge Sheffield for personal reasons and sincerely admires him because he Is a man of force, strength of charac ter and endowed with the courage of his convictions. We know the manner of Just Judge he Is, and are not unfa miliar with tho purifying work he has done In hts circuit since he went on the bench. For these and other rea sons, therefore, we would not engage In a controversy with him, except un der extraordinary conditions. Judge Sheffield Is mistaken In as suming that anything that has trans pired In the past has In the smallest degree Influenced the personal feel ings of the editor of The Herald to ward him. Nothing could be "wider of the mark” than such an Inference. Our friend Is simply mistaken, and we are satisfied that he will accept this assurance of hts error without question. One thing more: The editor of The Herald was not a Henrst man during the last presidential campaign. It seemed to suit tho political purposes of Borne poople in the Second congreB- slonnl district to cay that he was for Henrst bocauso he was loyally stand ing by his friend, Congressman OrJggB, who wns an avowed Henrst man, but whenevor and wherever he wns per mitted to speak for himself It wns well understood that while he thought It would be n party mistake for the Democrats to nominate Pnrkor, he wns not ndvocntlng tho nomination of HearBt. Tho odltor of The Herald was never n Henrst mnn, and so stated with postttvenasB In those columns. Wo regret that Jmlgo Sheffield should have reverted to politics at all. partic ularly past politics, and we will not argue any of tho propositions lie makes on this line. Why Bny moro? Judge Shefflold Is sincere In what ho writes, but like nil men, he Is not above limiting mistakes. And, far and ahovo nil theso other minor matters, wo hope he ts mistaken In the belief that Ills physical condi tion Is ns Bcrlotis ns Ills physicians have led hint to fear. . May -ho be spared fbr many years of usefulness to his section and people. Is our hope and our prayer. THE HERALD’S CHAUTAUQUA EDITION. From the Worth Local. The Chautauqua edition of The Al bany Herald was a hummer. It Is a credit to the management of the paper and to the town that is enterprising enough to authorize such an edition. From the TIfton Gazette. The Chautauqua edition of The Al bany Herald Is the best special Issue of any newspaper that has reached the Gazette office this year, In many respects. In years past these editions have been of the highest rank, but thlB one easily eclipses Its predeces sors, both in character of Illustrations and scope and variety of the special articles. Our loved ArteBlan City, since Its awakening about five years ago, has made wonderful strides, and of this growth and development, the special Issue of The Herald Is a faith ful mirror. Indeed, so good was It that the postal authorities could not admit It to the malls as second-class matter, and the publishers were compelled to pay 4 cents postage on each copy. From the. Turner County Banner. The Chautauqua edition of The Al bany Herald of April 15, Is on our table, and to say that the Issue Is a gem, Is to put It very mildly. The 1b- sue is brim full of useful Information from n historical point of view, as It dates back to the very foundation of the city by fcol. Nelson Tift, proceed ing step by step during all these years of that city’s wonderful progress and development down to the present time. We muBt congratulate The Her ald on the splendid, clty-llke appear ance of the Chautauqua edition of The Herald. Here's hoping that you and your beautiful city may continue to grow and prosper. From the Dublin Times. The Albany Herald comes out with a splendid Chautauqua edition Of thirty-six pages, treating especially of the eighteenth annual session of the Georgia Chautauqua, which opens next Sunday with a sermon by Rev. Eckman, of. New York, who also hns charge of the Bible normal class, which Is one of the features of next week. This edition cost The Herald people 4 cents postage per copy to send to its subscribers, a new ruling of tho postofflee department being that oply the regular editions of a paper aro entitled to second-class postage. This is a pretty hard ruling to apply to a paper whoso special edi tion Is for the upbuilding of Its people and community, though It may he Just. 1545—The mines of Potost opened. 1053—Prince George of Denmark, con sort of (jueen Anne of England, born. 1666—Battle of Daventry. 173C—-Eugene of.

The Chautauqua edition of the Al bany Dally Herald, published on Sun day last, was one of the finest papers over gotten out In Georgia, and we heartily congratulate our old friend, Editor McIntosh, on his enterprise. With men like Henry M. McIntosh to boom Southwest Georgia, why there Is nothing to keep tt from prospering as never before. From the Blakely Reporter. • The Chautauqua edition of the Al bany Herald was a gent. But Editor McIntosh Is noted for his public spirit, and our sister city Is to he congratu lated on having such an enterprising and progressive citizen. Wo publish a letter from Mr, I. H. Scales, of TIfton, indorsing the posi tion of Judge Sheffield on the question of closing tho saloons of Albany dur ing Chautauqua weok, especially on Mllltnry Day. Wo gladly slve space to Mr. Scale's communication, and >ve make tills paragraphic rofercnco to It merely to take exceptions to the term "your drunken degenerates," which he uses. We simply want to say that the "drunken degenerates" who aro In ev idence on the trains In and out of Al bany on Military Day aro not ours— not Albnny’s—but aro thirsty fellows who come from the neighboring dry towns and surrounding country. If tholr neighbors and friends can't make them stay at home or keep them so ber, why, In the name of all that Is reasonable and fair, should Albany be expected to do It? THIS DATE IN HISTORY.
