JOS. HI. BROWN TO PEOPLE OF GEORGIA THANKS THEM FOR GREAT MA JORITY IN RECENT ELECTION. Marietta, Oa., Oct. 14.—Governor- Elect Joseph M. Brown today issued a latter to the people ot Georgia thank- fag them tor the masnlOcent majority accordoj bis candidacy in the recent election. He promises that within the next eight months he will visit all aectlons ot the state that It la possi ble. Mr. Brown's letter In lull Is as follows: To the People ot Georgia: It is my pleasure, as It Is my duty, to express my proround thanks tor the exalted honor which you, by your suffrages, conferred upon me, the Democratic nominee for governor, October T. This honor Is established as being well nigh supreme, when It 1s borne, In mind that democrats, populists and republicans Joined In the vote which spoke the mandate of our state. Hence to the cltlsent of all parties who vot ed tor me In the white primary; to those who supported my distinguished opponent lu that primary, and who, later ota/rd the Jlciutes of honor with the behest of the prlmur -. an I to all other voters woo cast their Initial bal lots for me lu the election, I will say that In the administration of the high office to which you have called me, I shall Jtnow no faction, no party. And I shall look not with favor nor with prejudice upon any class. "Equal rights to all, special privileges to none,^ special burdens upon none,” shall be my Euldlng mot to. / Recognising that the will of the peo ple, as embodied In the statue law, Is our rule of action, I shall enforce that will by the orderly methods It pre scribes. Reco rolling that reason welds together while denunciation drives asunder, I shall pursue that course Sfhlch my Judgment teaches mo tends to securing a united clttsen- ry. And let me urge you, my fellow cltl sens, to Join me In the resolutions to put behind us the asperities of the past, to remember teat we are Geor gians and that In Georgia's weal Is our cornmoa Interest, our commhn Joy. The necessity tor this course Is manifest when we hold In mind how great a number ot our fellow cttlaens an out of employment, hence unable ge secure for their families the plain est things needed for sustenance and comfort I admit that tho greatest burden upon my heart Is the yearning deslro to see these worthy ones, allied to us by blood and affection, again re ceiving good wages. This money, in enabling them to provide all the ceassrles and a reasonable portion of the pleasures for their loved ones, would ultimately reach the grocers, the clothiers, the market gardeners, the farmers, etc., and thus better the condition of all classes In our state. Of oouree, no one man can effect this end; but by concord and co-operation In the lines of Juatlce and moderation we can assure capital and Improve the status. Let us then, I repeat, put behind us the asperities of the past campaign, let us remember that Georgia's welfare la more to us than Is the gratification of factions! grudges or personal am bitions; that magnanimity it the nob lest virtues at revenge It one of the hasost of vices; that, as “ a house dl- vldod against Itself shall fall,” so a state divided Into two hostile camps will fall to attain the social and econ omic strenith upon which ondurlng prosperity mutt he bated. In conclusion allow me to repeat the following declaration found In my let ter to the people, published April 10: Between the date of my choice In the primary and the data of my Inau guration U' will be my endeavor to visit at many eountlps as possible In every quarter of our state, for the purpose of conferring with all classes of our fellow dtlsens as to the best methods to be adopted for the rehabili tation of our Industries, the strength ening of our terming Interests and all others In which our homo people—our own blood and bone— may again be come partners In prosperity." In accordance with this promise, I expect, within the next eight months to visit as many as I can ot our people In the rural districts as well at In the cities and towns, from the marshes ot the Okstenokee to the peska of the Blue Ridge, from the Savannah river to the Chattahoochee. If by this course I can do- naught else, I can at least shake hands and exchange cor dial greetings with the sterling men. the golden-hearted women and the brtsfdt-eyed hoys and girls of Georgia, and r cfn co-ordinately* acquaint my self with the varying characteristics of the coastal plain, the rolling hill country and the craggy mountains ot nur state, and hence with the needs ot the Inhabitants of each. I feel sore that whan these stand are over I shall be confirmed In my oyal Georgian whereever one finds him; that south Gorgla is as groat as north Georgia, and that middle Georgia Is as great as either of the other two. And I trust that all Georgians will judge me as feeling not a whit great er mentally nor better morally bo- cause I have been chosen as your chief executive, in other words, that I am only a plain man, but burdened with a sense of responsibility that would crush me hut for the fact that I have faith In OoJ, t have faith In the people. I beg, therefore, that you will con sider that the object of these visits Is not ostentatious display, hut the free Interchange cf thought which comes from social acquaintanceship. This Interchange I shall seek with farmers, merchants, hankers, with officers and employees ot factories and railroads, with lawyers, doctors and clergymen— with men In all occupations and ranks. 1 feel sure that the better we know ecch other the more we will like each other, that suspicion and distrust emi grate from the spot where friendship settles, that confidence ta the child ot friendship, and that, led by the hands or confidence we will move forward together In the highway which leads to greatest Georgia—Georgia which gives the pledge; "Equal protection, equal obligation, equal opportunities tor all who place themselves under the aegis of my lasrs.” Ood grant thst beneath the arch ot our constitution upheld by the marble pillars, "Wisdom,” "Justice,'' "Modera tion." we shall clasp hands arounj the altar of common faith, a common duty and a common devotion to our Imperial state and to each other; for every man who, with honest heart, would build up Georgia Is a Georgian's brother. Tour fellow citizen. J08EPH M. BROWN... Marietta, Ga„ October. 14, IMS. WOMEN, ATTEMPTING A RESCUE, TRIED TO BEAT IN DOORS. London, Oct. 14.—Still militant and boisterous after a night of disorder, a mob ot suffragists today repeatedly tried to storm the court room where the cases of 37 women, who were ar rested In yesterday's demonstration, were called for trial. Hundreds of women surrounded the building. They crowded the corridor and beat upon the court room doors. An extra police guard drove hack the women unceremoniously and but for the mounted police tbs mob would have rescued their colleagues from the police wsgon. When the cases were called, Mrs. Pankhurst, Miss Psnkhurst snd Mrs. Hammond, suffragist leaders, demand ed a Jury trial and their trial was set for October list. A dozen women who participated in yesterday's dis turbances were given sentences rang ing from one to two months in prison upon refusing to furnish bond for their future good behavior. About a dozen more were given a sentence of from thirty to ninety days without the alternative of paying a (By Thomas C. Shotwell.) By Telegraph to The Herald. ' New York, Oct 14.—The entry of E. H.

THE WAY THE 8UN AND STARS ARE READ.. - When one lights a common sulpher match In the dark it Is worth while to-n notice what happens. First, its phos;tg phorus gives out faint yellow rays,/' and almost at the same time the sup plier begins to burn with bluish- beams. As yet the flame yields little light. In a moment or two the wood of the match takes lire, and then a stream, of clear white light pours forth. Each, of the materials of the matdh—Its- phosphorus, sulpher and wood—has. shone In burning with n color of ltai own. In a street lighted by electricity and. gas the eye detects at once the dif ference between the white rays of the: one and the yellow beams of the other.
