There Is no necessity for changing 'the qualifications of voters In tho state j Democratic primary this year from jyrhab they have been for, years paBt, hnq when the State Democratic Cota- •hpoe. which meets In Atlanta on 'Agopday, will find It easy to readopt tho same tales and regulations that have . ibefeh In force In the past i. : • — . ] The Samson (Ala.) Lodger Is kind 'enough to say: "A friend sent us a cbpy of the Chautauqua Edition of tho Albany’ (Qa.) Herald, and the paper was a gem. The Herald Is one of tho best papers we have ever known to ho published In a town the size of Albany, and It Is due to tho paper, more than any one thing, thnt Albany Is making a city." China's cheapest book Is the New Testament In Chlneso, published by t,he British and Foreign Bible Society. It coatg fourpettce to print and Is sold at twopence. Copies In alt tho great Indian ilangunges cost one penny (two cents) to print, and they are, sold In India at one farthing (half a cent). The Bible Is now the cheapest book In the- world. ), "The Steel Trust has announced thnt. In spite of the great demand for mils, HOLD THE CONVENTION IN MACON. The State Democratic Committee Is called to meet In Atlanta on Monday to order the state primary and (lx the time and place for the meeting of the State Democratic convention to nomin ate candidates for governor and Btate house officers. Macon Is bidding for the stufe con ventlon this time, and the Indications are thfat It will get It. Unusual conditions exist In the cam- palgn this year, and there appears to be good reason for selecting some other city than Atlanta for holding the convention. Th^t the local Influence In Atlanta, the seat of the state government, with a long list of officeholders and hangers on, 1b alwayB In evidence when there is a- contest on In a state convention, Is well known to all who bavo ever “been through the mill,", and this year, when Atlanta has two candidates for governor, the Atlanta Influence might be expected to bo more In evidence at the convention than ever. And then the contest between the two Atlanta candidates and the rivalry between their respective organs, the two leading newspapers of Atlanta, has degenerated Into a feud. Each fac tion has Its adherents In Atlanta, and If the state convention meets there they will both be very much In evi dence, each trying to down the other and to get control of the convention. These conditions are well known to the members of the State Democratic Committee, as they are to everybody else Jn the state, and that they will have their weight when It comes to selecting the place for the meeting of the convention can scarcely bo doubted. Lot the state convention be held In Macon. That city Is asking for It and will bo able to show that it will be prepared to take care of It. which Jwould seem to justify an ad vance in price, the trust will be moder ate in Its exactions and slick lo the price of $28. Thnt is eight or ten dol- lata a ton moi Ilian the trust Is glad (o accept from foreigners: it is more than tvHco as much as Charles Schwab bon said It cost to make them, and It would be Impossible for the trust to get the price If It were not for the tariff. .In view of the difficulty the "stand-pattera" have In keeping the tarlT dlscusslpn down, an Increase In 'the price of steel rails might cause an explosion that would throw the lid ■jand the men who are sitting on it Into j the air. j By earthquake and fire San Fran- ; ptsco, has lost not only several hum ,-dreds of lives and $250,000,000 prop erty, but also more than hulf of her I population. Officials of tho Southern Pacific railroad state that their trains I have already carried- away from the ’' Stricken city more than 225,000 people. (V.'bile a great number of these will f/return eventually, the majority of them fled in a panic the effects of j 'which will be long in wearing off. The horror of the earthquake and the Are sent them flying from a scene to which the weaker spirits will never dare to return. The reconstruction of the city wtll have to be the work of those who i have been brave enough to remain, determined to raise up a new and greater city upon the ashes of the old. TE ' . . Us, i ALBANY A8 A CONVENTION CITY, The attention of the state 18 being rapidly drawn to the fact that Albany 1b n. convention city with claims which cannot be lgnpred, and which, It Is worthy of note In passing, there Is no disposition to Ignore. Next week the Georgia division of the T. P. A. will hold Its annual con vention In this city, and on tho 29th and 30th proximo the State Associa tion of Elkf^ will be the community's guests. Present Indications strongly Indicate that In 1907 Beveral of the lurgest conventions to bo held in Geor gia, Including the gatherings of sev eral secret orders and moetlngs of va rious other Important bodies, will oc- our within Albany's hospitable gates. There are many reasons why Albany Is inviting as a convention city; She has the grent prorequisite In tbut her inlltaad facilities are unsurpassed. Seven lines rndlnte In ns mnny direc tions, affording quick and easy access from all Georgia points. Furthermore, the magnificent auditorium of tho Georgia Chnutnuqup, which Is capable of accommodating 4.000 persona, tri umphantly solves the problem which proves a nightmare to mnny a city three or four times Albany’s size and population. Hotel and boarding house accommodations are adequate for all ordinary conventions, and nro bolnpj Increased every year. And last, but not least to be consid ered. Is the fact well understood by the average person who knows any thing about Albany, thnt this city has a way of extending the glad hnnd to her guests and making them feet that they are welcome. That spirit goes a long way In winning a community's battles, and It has long been carefully fostetad In Albany. Albany wnnts all the conventions she can get. May the time speedily come when she shall be able to get all she may want It seems that the Turner County Banner, over at Ashburn, has boen criticized for publishing some "un pleasant things” about people in the community — making news Items of some people’s misdeeds, and In reply to these criticisms Editor Hudson tells the complaining ones that If they don’t want their misdeeds published, "quit your meanness." The weather has ■ continued Ideal throughout Chautauqua week. And It. has been a great week in Albany. A VITAL QUESTION., “We are prating entirely too much From tho Savannah Fregn. about the unreal and the unsubstan tial. The real questions, after all, are the ones that affect the home and the children In the home.” These were the words of the Judge of the Juvenile court In Denver, re cently, whose observation has led him to conclude that bad home surround ings and lack of proper parental care cause most of the juvenile criminality. Sixty-five boyB brought before hltn, charged with stealing brass from the railroads, were fatherless through the desertion of their families by hus-! bands and fathers. “The old man skipped out and left ma to take cafe of us,” was the way these abandoned children told the story, and It Is no wonder that, viewing the wretched,) pitiful array, the Judge declared him self more Interested in saving those boys who stole brass from the rail roads than In regulation of railroad rates. i The Incident here cited has been made the text of some very sensible remarks by the Albany (N. Y.) Tlmes- Union. That paper says that In the absence of home training and proper care for the child, the school could do much, "but not the school as at pres ent constituted." The school. It says, must educate and train In morals, and to the end that this may be effectively done, It contends that the teacher -of the future must have smaller classes, and that he or she (preferably she) must take the place of the bad parent and manifest a sincere and. active sympathy in. the child's future wel- : fare. While a few teachers do this now as best they can, many have not the disposition, and if they had the disposition they laok the necessary time' and energy, Our contemporary thinks that jam ming spelling and arithmetic Into the head of a bad boy or girl will not make a good citizen of either, and argues from the premises that present methods will not do, and that for Its own self-protection the state must ed ucate the heart as well as the mind, or go on making educated criminals. The church, too, It says, Is not doing what It should, and falls to reach the homes and children that need It most; and It asks how many Sunday schools make a business. of bringing under their Influence the boys of the street and the girls of wretched homes. The position of the Tlmes-Unlon, In fine, seoms to be that the state must take charge of jhe homes of, the coun try and devote Itself to their manage ment, just as It has undertaken eco nomic questions, and it predicts that the question embodied In that posi tion will come to be one of the chief concerns of politics and real Issues of government. There Is much good sense nnd food for valuable reflection In what It says, but the disposition to shift from parents to the state or the city the entire responsibility for the mental and moral education of chil dren—to throw everything on ‘‘the government” — Is one that seems to need checking rather than encourag ing. The sense of responsibility on the part of parents in this matter of the education of their children should be increased rather than diminished. THI8 DATE IN HI8TORY.
