by any means been eradicated.
It may astonish some persons to know
that the 1900 census showed that there
were 314 white men in Thomas county,
more than 21 years old, who could
neither read nor write.. This is exclus
ive of the 1800 negro men in the county
who are illiterate, and necessarily the
number of illiterate females of' both
races is. even larger thanfrthis.
Taking the state as a whole, more
than eleven per cent of the white voters
are unable to read. In Thomas county
we have the satisfaction of knowing
that this percentage is slightly reduced,
though by entirely too small an amount.

Judge Hopkins wishes to get public
expressions pf sentiment on the three lo
cal game laws he proposes to introduce
in the General Assembly next month.
The several taws are though t_ necessary
more on account of the negro pot hunt
ers who scour the country, than for any
other reason. Really the only hardship
imposed by the laws on the sportsman
is the trouble of getting written permis
sion to hunt from all his neighbors.
This permission need not he secured hut
once, and will not require any great
amount of work at most. All non
residents of Georgia who come here to
hunt can well afford to pay $10.00 for
the privilege. Necessarily a game war
den cannot be disponood with if the laws
are to be enforced.
Our illiterate white voters form a little
more than ten per cent of the whole.
There are ten counties in this state most
of \yhich are in the mountains of North
Georgia, in which the illiterates amount
up to 20 per cent. 0 - „. V-v
It is unpleasant to think o^fcpse
things, but it is our duty to lookThe
trouble squarely in tbe face and then
move heaven and earth to cure it. ^
For the sake of a comforting compari
son, we wil^ji^ that Kentucky has
twelve and two thirds per cent illiterate
whitq men and North Carolinagnineteen
and a half per cent. On the other hand,
though, Minnesota has but eight tenths
of one per cent, and far off Washington
state but half of one per cent; V;' v v-
These comparisons are aU 'made upon
the same basis, the »tegro and foreign el

War any one deny that an illiterate
^. adan is not truly qualified to hold the
reins of government? Is he in a posi
tion to form an opinion of his own?
As patriotic citizens, then, it is our
duty to exert every effort to make the
percentage of illiterates in Georgia not
height tenths, or five tenths of one per
cent, but to eradicate them utterly.
