Honoring Southern Men.
Editor Joel Chandler Harris of
Uncle Remus Magazine and his
assistants, Julian Harris and Don
Marquis, have gone to Washing¬
ton t« dine with President Roose¬
velt In 7 special invitation. I
As Uncle Remus is one of tne
most bashful men in the country
President Roosevelt doubtless
knew that he could not get him to
come „nl« unless S ho ne ne he included mciuu u his ms as- an i
sistants. They were invited, but
in reality the dinner was given in
honor of Joel Chandler Harris,
who made a name in literature in
.
America and Europe by telling
the children about “Brer Rabbit
and Brer Fox.”
President and Mrs. Roosevelt
are both great admirers of Joel
Chandler Harris and the honor
shown him is one of distinction.

The Decision Satisfactory.
The decision of the R-.. .
Commission of Georgia to ‘
effect that newspapers c,
change with the railroads : -
tising for transportation i- •
and very gratifying to the -
bers of the newspaper fr • -
A short time since the x>.
commission issued an order i:
was construed to mean if.'.* fh*
newspapers could not accept V
portations in exchange for sb ■
tising. This construction was p .t
upon the order by lawyers, rail
rosd men and newspaper m
The president of the Georgia
Weekly Press Association took up
the matter with the railroad
mission and asked that the ord« r
be modified so as to permit the
acceptance of railroad transporta¬
tion aud to set a date for hearing
argument from the members of the
Georg ia Weekly Press Association.
In reply it was stated by the
secretary of the commission that
-the order issued did not proven
the acceptance of transportation.
The same reply was made to Presi¬
dent Harman of the Southern
Trades Press Association and
others.
Without this statement by the
commission the order would have
b^en construed to mean that trans
portation could not be accepted,
although when read in connection
with the statement of the com¬
mission it can be seen that it was
r'", tl ' a of lhe commission
to deny to newspapermen railroad
transportation under certain re¬
stnct j on3
After January 1st next the news
pipers and the railroads will get
on a business basis one with the
other an we have no doubt the
arrange ments will be more satis
fa tory than the present plan.

upbuilding of cities and towns in

dex for the past seven days, show

general character of biddings re¬

a business-like realization
of grjwth and of the demands
which it occasions, Never before
have as many residences been built

[ and yet the need for them b as not
supplied in a great many in
stance. Larger and handsomer
business buildings are being
erected. ff he number and charac¬
ter of public buildings that are be¬
ing constructed form another
signal Index of prosperity. Im¬
provement by municipalities is not
exceeded by the enterprise of
private citizens. Every week is
announced the issuance or proposed
issuance ot bonds fer erecting pub

In God We Trust.
In future the legend “In God
We Trust” will he omitted from
the coinage of our mints. This is
change which will not be ap
proved by the m jority of our
people, and which is as unwise as
it was unnecessary.
For some time it has been known
that our government contemplated
new designs for our coins, This
was not really necessary Our
American coins were all that could
he desired except that they were
too limited in quantity, The de
signs they carried in their nn
pressions were artistic, and good
enough Perhaps in some respect
this night have been improved, as
for instance substituting some
thing more suggestive ot good
than the image of a bird of prey,
but since the American eagle has
been recognized as national em
blem this impression on our coin
must be accepted as a matter of
cours e
But the desire for change is a
trait that is shared by all humanity
it leads not onlv to changes in
fashion, but to changes in furn
iture, in architecure and in every¬
thing else. It is this which caused
the desire for a change in our
coinage stamps. St. Gaudens, the
celebrated designer, was com¬
missioned to do this work, and as
his last work he gave us the new
coinage designs we are to have.
The fact that he had selected an
Irish girl as model for his female
face has caused some dissatisfac
tion but this is trivial to the dis
coverv now made that the old
words “In God we Trust” are left
off all the new coins.
Why should this have been done
Is it to be taken as our declaration,
as a people, that we no longer
trust in God? Has our prosperity
and our greatness turned heads,
made us vain and proud, so that
wt have grown ashamed to avow
that we trust in God? Or are we
rushing into atheism or agnost
icism so that we feel that we must
make the defiant declaration that
we are too eelf-re-hant to ack
nowledge any higher power than
ourselves, to which to bow in filial
trust?
i Our coinage is distinctive from
that of all other countries, and not
the least of these distinguished
marks in the legend they bear that
4 i Jti God we Trust.” This is im¬
pressed upon all our coins, from
the quarter up. And how fitting!
This country, more favored in
nature’s b unties than all other
countries, thus showing that it is
the Creator’s favorite, this country
held hidden and given to man all
its pristine freshness at time when
the old world was torn by fanati¬
cal strife and wars, that her6
might be set up a country in which
every man could worship the Lord
according to the dictates of Ins
conscience; this country so fav¬
ored of God fittingly adopted the
motto “In God we Trust,” to
stand on its every coin, that al¬
ways the people might have a fresh
reminder of God’s goodness before
their eye.—Augusta Herald.

Col.J.H. Estill.
The tributes his fellow-men lay
upon his grave is one of the best
criterons of his life’s work, and bv
that, no man who nas died in
Savannah was more lamented than
Editor EstiU. His remains were
followed to the grave by his oid
companions in arms, in their
uniforms of faded gray; by the
employes, to whom he was a friend
and fellow-worker; by the grund
and local lodges of Masons,
Knights, Odd Fellows and by the
orphans of Bethesda, to whom he
was a father. They were borne to
their last resting place by the
negro men of his employ, and
honored by his business associates,
the leading men of Savannah’s
financial and benevolent instit¬
utions. Two large wugons were
required to transport the floral
tributes, many of them or great
beauty and originality. The
members of the military compauy
in which, as a youth, he marched
away in 61 to defend the South,
fired the three voleys of a soldier’s
tribute over his grave, the trump¬
eter of his camp sounded taps and
John Holbrook Estill sleeps in
peace beneath Bouaventure’s moss
draped oaks. A man who gave
his life to the building of his city
and the development of his state,
he has earned his rest.—Ex
The Power of Interest.
A good many people think it does not pay to save
because "interest does not amount to much.”
Of course the main reason for saving is to get ahead
and be somebody and to be prepared for emergencies, but
Interest Does Amount to a Great Deal.
Ask any man who is paying it. There is all the difference
>n the world between paying Interest and getting
interest. It is the difference between walking and riding,
between really living and merely existing.
