There are many people much more deserving at present than the ex slaves, but bn the other hand there are equally as many much less deserving. The bill would mean that a large amount of money would be put in circu lation here in the south, and that would by no- means be a bad thing. In all probability the*bill is only a shrewd .po litical-move. Senator Hanna, if he de sires the Presidency will make any op ponent bestir himself. 5 His personality entirely unobjectionable and his actions in public life have been tempe rate and well advised. He is certainly to be preferred to the erratic Bodsevelt and the south should not weep if he se cures the Republican nomination.

MORGAN AND PANAMA CANAL. i All the world admires a man who doesn’t'know when he is whipped, but goes on fighting just the same. It is only, however, when the refusal to ac knowledge the self-evident leads to a re versal of conditions and the snatching of victory from what appeared to be dire defeat, that the public is prompted to openly applaud and proffer laurels. Un der other circumstances ridicule is- apt to take the place of rewards, says the Au gusta Chronicle. • Senator Morgan has made a gallant fight in behalf of the Nicaragua canal. In spite of all this he has been defeated and the Panama route selected. To the unbiased and pninformed average ob server it from the first seemed the more practical and cheaper scheme of the two. And now the matter has virtually been definitely settled and it is chosen for the great inter-oceanic ship canal. Senator Morgan’s part for the future, therefore, is.to aid, rather than to. obstruct, the government in carrying out the gigantic enterprise it has undertaken. It’s well, sometimes, not to realize that we are whipped. It is foolish, however, to persist in such non-recognition when » it has been a- self-eyident fact to every 56 inch Union Linens.

Such a man, if he is a billionaire or a homeless wander er like Christ—is a success. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Governor Terrell told those New York Georgians, in his excellent speech, that “such is the variety of Georgia’s climate, the productiveness of her soil, the infinite scope of her resources and the sublime culture of her civilization that if a Chinese wall were built around her inviting boundary line she would in time be not only the Empire State of the Sffuth,but the empire state of the world, in all that goes to make a people great find a commonwealth independent and potential.” her of negroes hi the least. It would merely draw off the increase of the 9,000,000 who reside in this country. Liberian emigration is the vague chi mera of impracticable dreamers. The negro and the white man will continue to live as neighbors iq the south, as long as there is a south, and the prob lem of their relations is one that must be solved by some other means than emigration. Two things are settled forever. The races will remain separate and the white 'man will remain the master. But that is no reason for race bitterness. Let the meddlers keep Imnf£h off and the white man and the negro invhe south will act justly and kindly, each to the other. The problem will. in the natural course of events work out its own solution. La the meantime let ns devote our time to Spend the day right.
