A TOTTERING EMPIRE. The crisis which the world expected would rapidly follow the defiant action of the Russian douma on Saturday In not only reiterating Its affront to the czar, but in demanding the resignation of the ministry, has been temporarily averted. But the course adopted by the government yeBterday only post pones what Beeras Inevitable—a civil war In which the masses will be ar rayed against the bureaucracy, and which may terminate In the downfall of the empire. The decision of the government to Ignore the affront of tho parliament and at the same time treat the de mand for the resignation of the min- Istry as a matter beyond that body's competence'was a clever piece of di plomacy, not to say strategy, yet It Is an evidence of weakness which the proletariat and the world at large will not fall to observe. Just when a clash was expected, the czar has dodged the Issue and again, resorted to temporizing and delay. But the Slavic parliament has drawn: the line sharply and vylll only take courage at the weak-kneed policy of the government which the masses of Russia now thoroughly despise. There Is more Internal trouble In Btore for the Russian empire, and a revolution of greater proportions than over before witnessed In that country seems to be drawing near. WATERMELON VS. CHICKEN. Watermelons and chickens;' the relative Importance of the two Georgia products, religiously speaking. This seems to be a fair statement of the features pad nature of a rather sec tional controversy that has arisen be tween tho Savannah Press anil the Grllfin Nows. While the peach belt Is split In half by tho new line dividing Georgia Into two dioceses, the Savannah Press re- jotcos in the fact that the biggest and best watermelons grow on Its stdo 6f the church line. # “True," retorts the Griffin News, "but tho host and most chickens grow up this way, which Is of a great deal moro religious Importance." on the committee. Something must be done. So the Atlanta Journal called a turn In the tune. Sunday It labored hard with the Populist brethren. It told them that after all the pledge was all right, and that they should walk up like little men, swallow It, and vote for Its candidate for governor; that the obligation to support the nominees —“both Btate and national”—did not refer to the presidential election In 1908, but referred to the congressional election this year. Now wasn’t that cute! Took It all back. The “future loyalty pledge” 1b then all a myth. The discovery makes the Journal so happy It could all but dance "the short dog’.’ In Its very exuberance of Joy. After nil there Is no ’"pledge of fu ture loyalty”—none at all! Glory be to Watson! But the Journal has convinced the McRae Enterprise, and the Fitzgerald Enterprise, and several others, that there Is a base "pledge of future loy alty,” and the Journal will find It hard, we fear, to get these brethren to shift as suddenly as It has done. Nevertheless the Atlanta, “ hyme hyster” has raised a new tune, and all are expected to rise and sing; a Bhort out to long metre soekdology. It all shows that the whole of the racket from start to finish Is a loosely played game of politics, .engineered for the purpose of capturing the Popu list vote, and casting It solidly for a certain faction In a Democratic pri mary- If there Is the least Sincerity about It—tf the Populists are so “pa triotic," and the Democratic leaders so “corrupt”—the wonder grows, as the question rises and shines like a dead mackerel In the sun, why these accus ers of the one, and praise-singers o£ the other, were not .Populists from the start. But so far from being Populists originally the bell-wethers of the flock j were the chief persecutors of the saints of Populism. Their conversion has been as sudden as the conversion of Sol of Tarsus without ttge attendant miracle. The light which encompassed them about seems to have been shed upon them from —— Thomson, Geor gia. And their apologies, their repent ance went up to Thomson, Geor gia. Oh, weak humanity! how very weak you are when the lust of political power presses down upon your earthy parts! >< ' r m. Col.

The two pretV-rtvd charges against each other, mid Gotli were put out for the good of the ser vice.- At (his distance, and judging by what wo have seen In t|u> Atlanta papers, It looks as though the police hoard did tho right thing. ML. ir A count of noses is said to show that there are decided majorities In both houses of congress in favor of a sea-lovel canal. Yet these majorities, though convinced of the correctness of their position, propose to leave the matter to President Roosevelt, who is known to favor a canal with locks at : .the present time, liable as he may bo to qhange his opinion. A congress which thus deliberately abdicates one of its highest legislative functions condemns itself before the whole country. - Mdbs by j special train—that’s the latest. Our telegraphic dispatches yes terday reported the lynching of Rob ert T. Rogers, a white man. at Tallu lah, La., on Monday night. There had been a change of venue and a lot of exasperating delay in the trial of Rog ers. who had murdered a merchant named Jesse Brown at Girard, Rich land parish, and the people, or some of them, concluded t.o take the case Into their own hands. The mob went to Tallulah on a special train from the west over the Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific railroad. The mob appeared after 10 o’clock and came fully pre pared with locksmiths. who had no trouble breaking into the jail. The jatl was unguarded and tho sheriff, who lived some distance away, was not aware of what was going on until he saw the mob leading the man off. Rogers wafc strung up to a telegraph pole and ns soon as they felt assured he was dead, the mob quickly dis persed. Rogers’ crime was a most atrocious one, and the case had been pending In the courts since 1904. This Is another hint to the courts. • An experiment recently conducted at Yale seems to settle affirmatively a much discussed proposition, which, .jsrhile it had many believers, was yet I opposed by some. The experiment, as I . the minutes state, consisted In finding “a timer food instinct.” Nine Yale ! graduates dieted four months upon foods named by the appetite, the quan tity being limited only by desire; but tiie food was eaten'slowly and thor- , oughly masticated before being sent r to the stomach. The result was, great er physical and mental strength and activity than by the usual process of • “bolting” half masticated food. More- . over the amount consumed was 10 to 40 per cent, less, with endurance and working power inerdased from 15 to 100 per cent When Ralph Smith gets to carry only one county, a day for Hoke, ho generally manages to carry it'at the ratio of something like 5 to 1.

National Surety Co., of New York. The Savannah Press alludes to “Old Dougherty, tho stronghold of solid Democracy.” Ahem! A Change of Tune. From tho Macon Telegraph, When the State Democratic Execu tive Committee adopted a rule that voters In tlie primary must pledge to support tlie Democratic nominees, “both state and national,” a great out cry went up from certain quarters against, an alleged pledge “for all time to come.” How they heat 4he tom toms, ayd sounded the doodlesacks! This “pledge of future loyalty,” they syid, was an “insult” to the Populists, and so forth, and po forth. They rubbefi it in so hard and so often that the unreconstructed Populists began to take it to heart a little more than was expected for them to do. They had been convinced that tlielr feelings had been hurt, and they began to talk about preserving their organization and putting out the r own ticket. But, hello I that would not do! That would defeat the object of the whole attack J. K. PRAY, President. A. P. VASON, Vice President* EDWIN STERNE. Cashier. Safety The Citizens National Bank OF ALBANY, GA. Capital, - -■ S50.000.
