I Atlanta, Nov. 20. ^CWS W as ! received in this city to-night of ! a double tragedy at Kennesaw, twenty-eight miles from At I lanta, on the western and At lantic Railroad, in which J. H. Butler of Augusta, an engineer on the Central of Georgia Rail way, had shot and killed Mrs. Lola Green of Atlanta and mortally wounded himself with the same pistol. The tradegy occurred in a ! hack in which the couple were j riding to the depot to catch the train to Atlanta. The exact nature of the trouble which led up to the killing and suicide is unknown. Mrs. Green came to Atlanta from Greenville, S. C. In Butler’s pocket was a memorandum book in which was written, “I am J. R. But-l ler of Augusta, where I have a wife and two children.” Builer and Mrs. Green were arrested and fined for living to gether in Atlanta last Septem ber. A Southern Man In The Cabinet. It is thought that presure is b« ing brought to bear upon the pres ident to have him appoint a South ern to a place in his new cabinet. The argument is made that the South is going to break up politi cally and that the appointment of a Southern man would have the effect of bringing about bet ter relations between the South and the administration. Of course arguments like these are being used by men who have axes to grind. They have a friend they want to get into the cabinet either because the friend wants the posi tion or because they want him to have it for some purpose of their own. It is said that a Virginia man is seeking the place. We see no reason why he shouldn’t have it, but if he should he appointed he could hardly be called a real rep resentative of the South. He wouldn’t be in sympathy with the people who control the South. It wouldn’t be surprising, how ever, if the president should put a man from the South in his new cabinet. From many sources comes the statement that the president is anxious to convince the Southern people that he is their friend, and that he has been misunderstood by them. Dis patches are going out from Wash ington, evidently inspired by him or his advisers, that he isn’t now nor has ever been m favor of so cial equality, and that all he claims is that the negro should have full liberty in the matter of education and in seeking and hold ing employment. These things have never been denied the negro in the South, though he doesn’t have them at the North. Doubtless we shall hear many things as to the President’s atti tude in regard to the South before he enters upon the terms for which he has just been elected, but be fore accepting them it will be ad visable to wait and see what he does.-—Savannah Morn ing News.
