AN ECHO OF THE ATLANTA RIOT, The recent i>e|>ort of the committed appointed to distribute funds to the victims of the recent race riot Atlanta is most striking commentary on the criminal folly of such out breaks. The committee found tbit not a single victim of th? mob’s fury belonged to the criminal class, but on the contrary that they were indus trious and Uw'abiding people worthy of help and encouragement instead of the treatment they received. The “tough niggers” got out of the way, and not a one of that class received the punishment he deaeirved but which was visited Instead on Innocent mem bers of their race. In writing of this Samuel M. Inman, one of At lanta’s most prominent citizens, says:- "It seemis to me that the principal reparation that can be made to those who gave up their lives, is for the people in the future to treat in a more just and kindly spirit those of negro race among us who are free from wrong doing. There Is too much disposition to lay upon them, tfH a whole, the sins of a fe<w of the race. ! was north when the Atlanta riot occurred, and was impressed with the wholesale denunciation of the entire white people of Atlanta on account of the brutality and inhumanity of a few men. I felt that It was unfair ajid unjust to condemn a whole paople for the sins of a few—an inflnJteasitnal per cent of the population. “In the same way 1 think it wrong to stir up hatred and create prejudice against the negroes of our country, because a few of the most degraded vrong. The great muss of the col ored people of Georgia ur i hard-work ing, law-abiding citizens. “If half the publicity were given to those who are trying to do right and live right, that is given to th£ crimes i few, our people and the world would view them In a .different light.” Those words from one of Geor gia’s most prominent cltiaens are wor thy of general consideration. The good negro must be encouraged, and the bad sent to the chalngang—or to Boston! The Atlanta Constitution is to be commended for its timely stand for the application of the prin ciples of genuine Christianity us the only solution of th * race question, and ex-GovcrnoiT Noithen Is doing good service in visiting the various cities of the state to enlist the bast citizens of both races in the effort to make Industrious, law-abiding people out of our colored population. It is to the Interest of both races that friendly re lations be maint ained! between rinin— and this will not be possible much longer unless the gospel of Carlst Is given free course in the solution of this greatest problem of the age. The notorious female “frenzied fi nancier,” Mrs. Cassie Chadwick, is to be brought from the Federal pris on at Columbus, O.. t» Atlanta. With her will also come four bankers con victed of violating the laws governing the handling of the funds entrusted to their care. Tax Collector W. A. Calhoun w here Monday to pay over to the Coun ty Commissioners on a partial settle ment for 1906, the neat, sum of $26,- 000, and reported the payment of $20,300 to the state for the same pe riod.

Peek has resigned his position as u trustee of the 7th Dis trict Agricultural School, and Gov ernor Terrell has appointed Mr. M. V. B. Ake to succeed him. The s?lection of Mr. Ake to take the place is n good one, as no citizen of Polk has more Interest in the education of our far mer boys than Mr. Ake. In explanation of th? non->.vpc>-arance of railroad schedules in The Standard, we would say that the Seaboard and Ceutral roads have ordered their dis continuance from all papers. The rea son given is that the new interstate commerce law forbids the exchange of transportation for such publication, they will apply the sune rule to intra state traffic. They have intimat'd their intention of making cash con tracts with newspapers for advertis ing, however, and it is to b? presumed that they will regard the convenience of their patrons by including these schedules iu th?ir orders for adver- tls’.bg. THK CENTRAL SHOPS. The big round-house at Uie n»w Central Railway shops is finished suf fcient!y,for us?, ani the turn-tible has supplanted the Y Just south of the city limits The new machines are b Ing placed in the shops, and In a few diya a full corps of machinists will bs hand ling all engines on this division right here in the Cedartown 'shops. Another building will sexm ba erected for the railway m<n for lounging quarters. Baths %nd «li , «wlng-ro<inw will be pro vided for the trainmen,so that on arri val here the crews will luvea place to go for rest and comfoi t. The yard is being put in good shape, and twelve or fifteen tracks are al ready hid. It Is a busy place, these shop yards, a<nd a large number of families are being kept away from Cedartown for the simple reason that houses cannot be procured for them. Every day railway people are mak ing inquiries about homes here, and Cedartowtn cin draw from Chattanooga Griffin and elsewhere Just as soon as our people build a number of de sirable houses. “WHEN A STAR COES OUT." “I'm a pretty old stager,*' said Un cle Ben at break fait, “but I heard something yesterday that was too much for me. A couple of nice-look ing girls, about the agb of Helen,heih. sat In front of me at the matinee, and In talking about the play together, after it was over, one of them used a downright, swear-word as lightly as you please.” “You must have misunderstood her, Benjamin!” cried Helen’s mother. “Course he didn’t!” from Helen. “What do you know about It, young lady?” asked Uncle B?n, turning on hU niece. “Nothing; *only some of the nicest girls in high school do it.” "What do you mean?” her mother demanded. “It’s true, mother. There's Verna Whittier,—you know what a fine fam ily she belongs to, and she’s sweet and popular,—-a gr. at. leader of school—but she does.” Helen! Does her mother know It?” “My, no! The girls just say those things to each other. Why, don’t you see, when they’ve used up all the slang there is, they have to get something stronger than slang. And then I guess they think It’s fun to be a lit tle shoaklng, Just by themselves.” “Well, well!” said Uncle Ben, push ing back his chair. “I’m glad I live in the country. The city’s too ad vanced for me! Why, if I should hear a girl swear, I'd think she’d do most anything. I tell you, the wings dropped off that one mighty quick yes terday.” That same day, after school. Helen Dyer sat In a classroom, waiting for Miss Bruddock, one of the teachers, who was giving a s?rles of ten-min ute talks to the girls. The only other perron in the room was Phil Grant, his head bent low over a book. Sud denly the door opened and Vc-rn.i Whittier flew in. As she caught sight of Helen she b?gnn a gleeful ac count of an adventure she had just had, and—in the very first sentence- out tripped a word that was “stronger thun slang.” Just as she uttered it she saw Phil’s astonished face—and stopped short. “Well, don’t get fussed, boy!’’ she laughed, trying to cover her chagrin, as the big, broad-shouldered lad gath ered up his books without a word and walked' out of the room. “Verna! What will he think?" cried Helen; and then—because it seemed the chance she had b?en Wait ing for—she told Uncle Ben's story, and what h? had sail albout the “wings dropping off.” “Pooh!” Verna pretended not care. “I guess l can exist without the good opinion of one little fresh man!” The bell rang, the girls came troop ing in, and Miss Braddoek "took h* f Place at the desk. Her talk iliat i/7v w - as on “Ideal?,” and in closing, she said: “U is hard for you girls to realize the subtle influence you have on boys of your own age, and younger. They idealize you; they depend on you to be Innocent, pure, good. You may shrug your shoulders and aay you don't care what Gits or that boy thinks of you, but then you ought to care—and deeply—^very time an ignoble act or careless word of yours robs any boy of an ideal which might have lighted him through dark places In his life but for you. He may seem to forget about It; he may act the same to you, but oh. ‘How little forgiveness counts when a star goes out!’ “Girls, are you making stars go out here in high school?"—Youth’s Com panion. The United States admitted 1,163,483 immigrants into this country last year but only a very few came South. Mr. C. L. Stevenson, formerly a clever citizen of Cedartown but now of Moultrie, has been appointed by Governor Terrell as a member of the | State Board of Embalmers.
