Wo don't know about the' town itself, but Its nowB- , papers are. Ool. J. H. Estlll, candidate for gov ernor, will spook In tho conrt house In this city at 4 o'clock next Wednes day afternoon, May 30. The Athens Banner Is still booming Parmer Jim Smith for governor Just sb enthusiastically as though It actu ally believed ho had a chance to win. “When you Bee l£ In The Herald It’s sb,” but wo were yesterday led Into an error In remarking In this column that Clark Howell was talking genuine Democracy In Lee couuty “today," Mr. Howell’s appointment toispoak at Leesburg Is for next Fri day, June 1. After all the fuss we have been making In the South about trusts and the wickedness of the trusts, It seems In accord with the fitness of things that one of the flr3t trusts run down i>y a Federal grand Jury should be the Fertilizer Trust, with the South tor its Held of operations and South ern planters for Its victims. The continued rains have been dam aging to the oat crop throughout this part of the state. The rains which - 'commenced last Monday caught the farmers right In the midst of the oat cutting time. Many acres had already been cut and shocked In the fields, and the continued rains have not only put a atop to cutting, but have been In jurious to that part of the crop that was cut. An Interesting happening in the proceedings of the House Committee of Ways and Means on Wednesday waB the refusal of the committee to consider the^resolutlon Introduced by Representative Williams to reduce 'o 100 per cent, all tariff schedules lu excess of that rate. Of course, a tariff rate of over ,100 per cent. Is Indefen sible. It Is legalized robbery. But the “stand-patters” stood fast, and the plunderers will go on with'thelr plun dering. The action of the International Pos tal Congress approving the British proposition to raise the unit of weight for foreign letters to one ounce will prove a very great convenience in this country, 'where the domestic unit of weight Is one ounce, and the fact that the foreign unit Is only half of that is the cause of very many mis takes. With a limit of an ounce It will no longer, be Important to use thin paper In foreign correspondence. “NOT A QUESTION OF 8ECTION.” The Charleston News and Courier says: “We agree with The Albany (Ga.) Herald that Senator Bailey, of Texas, 1b excellent Presidential timber. He would make a very fine candidate and there has been much serious talk about naming him as the Democratic standard-bearer In 1908. We do not agree with our Georgia contemporary, when it says that It would be much better 'for the South to vote—even though she voted alone—for a bfg man like Bailey, who stands for Democ racy, than to waste her votes or her enthusiasm on some Northern Demo crat who would probably not be elected, and who, even should the par ty be victorious, might prove bitterly disappointing.’ The News and Courier then proceeds to a discussion of the relative claims of Northern and Southern Democrats In the party, and observes: "It does not matter from what part of the country the Democrat comes, he Is a far better friend to the South than any Republican who might be named. If Mr. Bailey Is to be nomi nated for President only because he Is a Southern man, he had hotter not be nominated because he Is a Democrat, thoroughly grounded In all tho princi ples of his party, and because he is faithful to these principles, and If In taking a census of the party no truer or more able Democrat enn bo found than ho, he ought to bo nominated, but wo nro growing’ weary of the evorlast- lng yawp that the Northern Democrats aro not as much entitled to the respect and confidence and support of the par ty as tho Southern Democrats. • * * If Mr. Bailey Is to bo nominated for President he must be nominated not because ho Is a Southern man, but be. cause ho Is the best available Demo crat to lead the party In the great po litical struggle of 1908.” To be sure. The question Is cer tainly not whether a Southern man should be nominated In a spirit of sec tional splto. That would be worse than silly, and thos'e of the party who profess to favor such a course should not bo seriously considered. Tho whole proposition hinges on the manner of man the Northern wing of the party shall offer. Should he meas ure up to standards which the country could not fall to recognize; should his Democracy bo of a brand above re proach or suspicion: should his ability be such as to command recognition and Inspire the confidence of all sec tions—then, we are quite agreed with our South Carolina contemporary, It would be wiser to place tho standard of the party In his liaudB than Intrust It to a Southern Demoorat whose chances of election would Inevitably be smaller. But we Insist that It would be far better to nominate a Domoerat like Senator Bailey than some Northern favorite who would fall to unite the tuotlons of the party'and would com mand a following torn by dissensions and lacking that confidence and esprit de corps so nacessary to success. Need we refer to very recent party history to emphasize this contention? If the North can furnish a candidate In 1908 cnpnble of solidifying all fac tions of the party hnd worthy of the highest office In the gift of the people, let us nominate him. If such a man be not available, let us, rather than compromise our political principles, Insist that we be allowed to name a man like Bailey, who, though he might fall of election, would leave no sting of regret In Democratic consciences nnd no patches on Democratic honor, there has been so much bluffing done over It that the public will wait for somebody to begin laying rails before looking upon the enterprise as an assured fact. The San Francisco street railroads are to convert tholr cable roads Into trolley cars us soon as such a change can be made. They will In this way come Into line with modern methods of operating surface transportation, for the cnble system has had Us day, and would no longer bo considered practical for the moving of tramcars In a Inrge city. The cable was a decided Improvement over the horse- drawn vehicle, but in Boston and New Orleans passed from the horse car to the trolley car at one step, not going through the intermediate stage of the cable. With the electrification of Its surface roads San Francisco will have gained one thing at least as a result of Its conflagration. Word comes from Savannah that a Central Railroad surveying corps will be here Monday to begin surveying a line for a railroad from this city to Newton, Bainbrtdge, Quincy and on down to the Gulf coast This really looks like business.
