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.

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.
