THE GREAT WHITE PLAGUE.
Organized endeavors has extended to
the ranks of the medical fraternity,
strong endeavor is now being made
fight tnberculoeia ip Georgia. A com
thittee to bead this fight hat been ap
pointed by the Medical Association. In
an open letter the committee says:
The mortality for tuberculof.it in
Georgia is one out of every ten deaths.
Before this tremendous fatality can be
reduced the general public mutt be
taught the chief facte about consump
tion, bow to prevent it, bow Jt Is re
cognised in Its earliest stage and that tt
is curable and not the hopeless condition
that It has to long been thought to be.
In other states and counties much
has been accomplished in tbe fight
sgainst tuberculosis. As an example
in Germany tbp mortality from coa-
tnmption has bean reduced one third in
the last twenty fire yean.
What ha* been done elsewhere may
be dboe here. But to accomplish tbls
the Committee needs money. It can
not have too mcch money for there is
no end to the work needed to be done.
The Committee feel that they have
a right to expect that every'penan In
the state should contribute something
according to his means, to this cause,
for there is toiroely a home In Georgia
from which consumption hss not claim
ed a victim.
The work undertaken ip for the good
of the people. It It Is to he prosecuted
to a socceHful Issue the people most
support it.
It Is truly a vital issue for today there
are thousands In this great state who
are afflicted with tuberculosis and who
owo their unhappy condition to lost one
thing,—Ignorance.
In order that onr work may be facili
tated and made effective we request thst
you open a subscription list and receive
contributions 1 to be turned over to the
Treasurer of the Committee for the
purpose above stated.”

Thomas E. Watson received a sub
stantial complimentary vote and car-
,led four oountle* In hit home state.
THE RESULT.
The result? Well it wonld teem to
Indicate that explanations are In order.
At tbe present lime, It it hard to uu-
Aentaud Just what elements contribu
ted to the Republican land slide. It
nay be taken as an Indorsement of the
personality of President Roosevelt by
the voters of the country.
This personality is objectionable to
Mis people of the south chiefly on ac
count of hit Ideas in regard to the ne
gro. This Is proved by the foot that the
south Is still more solid tliau ever. That
these feelings are not shared elsewhere
is proved by tbe fact that the north,
Oast and west are also solid.
Criticisms of Jndgo Parker’s methods
of campaigning are now belated, but a
lack of energy lias been apparent from
the first. The freit* of an cnergdtio
campaign are seen in the electiou of
Douglas ths Democratic governor elect
of Massachusetts.
Now as to after-affects: President
Booeevelt has 'been paid a remarkable
compliment by this overwhelming re-
election. He started wisely and wi
by declaring that he would not run
(ora third term. When he first sne-
cooded to the presidency, ho had the
favorable opinion of the south. By sc
Mobs that he now must realize as mis
take*. he lost it. He has a chance to re-
gain it by his fnture conduct. It Is
tab* hoped that he will. Lesser men
hay* risen to greater occasions.
How Democracy is not dead. Things
Will look brighter by and by. Instead
of |p«<ny into the debris of defeat Dem-
wants should look to the rising star of
M08. .While there is life there is hope

it stOl alive.
