ARREST OF COUNTERFEITERS,
xvhy do men undertake to exhaust
their lnx<*nu!ty In ths •(fort to put
counterfeit money into circulation?
Th* certainty of their apprehension and
| lU rinhment la Absolute. The thought
rrr „rs In connection with the capture
nf up s erai makers of the queer by the
fM*r»| officer* In Atlanta Saturday.
Th* latter succeeded In aecurlnf about
lin.noo of the stuff.
Ther* Is shown In tbs office of. the
chief of the oscret service In Atlanta a
t>ll] of a large denomination tfiarts with
n pen -one of the marvels of the copy-
in*- art. As much skill employed In
j-ro'i'Kir.g a portrait or a landscape
would have netted the men far more
than ths figure he drew Into ths bill.
May It not be that men become poe*
eeaer-.i of an ambition to challenge the
government by demonstrating that all
the engraver* and dls-makers ars not
in the government's sendee? May It
not he that they feel a ssnas of Indl
vlduat triumph when they succeed In
Touting a spurious bill or coin and they
are willing to meet ths punishment. If
only they may succeed In starting ths
Mil or coin In motion.
Ones a counterfeitsr. always a coun
terfeiter. This has been abundantly
(lerr.nnstratsd In ths records of the
criminal courts. A few years ago a
neat was broken up In an Eastern pen
Itsntlary. Ths men continued to work
at ths business even while serving sea-
fences for ths crime nf uttering falfre
money. An Instance nf like criminal
predilection was that afforded by an
inmxte of a TenneM.ee penitentiary.
He had been convicted of forgery and
was doing time. He succeeded tn gain
ing a pardon by sending forgsd pstl
ilonn In his behalf to ths governor. If*
Avan subsequently rearrested. Moon
shiners likewise have been known to
wp up fholr trade during the period
nf In™rc-rat|on» This Incorrigibility

thin n i«-rverted spirit of competition.

port to bs caught, and they also know
th.it their gains will. In the end bs In

ed that light is breaking In the North.
COTTON AND PORT ARTHUR.
It Is believed by the ration lector*
rfft market elud-nta of New Orlean.
that e reasonable price for the etepp
will be maintained thle year beceuer
the Increase In the consumption de
mand on the on* bend end bereuee of
the conviction thet the crop will not be
bumper one.
It would be a fortunate thine for the
Southern planter If the Rueeo.Jepeneee
War ahould end with the fell of Port
Arthur or thet tt ahould terminate any
time before Chrtetmaa. The reaump-
tlon of commerce with the Orient will
lean a quick and enormous de
mand for cotton from Chin*. Japan
end other pert* of the Asiatic llttorel.
This will naturally lend to force the
Rmrtlah. Oertnan. French end other
'continental epinner. Into the market,
notwlthstandlnc their recent efforts to
control the price by eu.pen.lon of hu.l-
nees and by laws dealfned lo eliminate
•peculation.
The fell of Port Arthur eeei
aured. The Ru«*l«n navy le no longer
formldaMe. The capture of the great
fort re., will eatabll.h Japaneae con
trol of the country they have Invaded
la difficult to eee how the Rueslane
uM retake It. being unable to rein-
»rce by werahlpe the lend forces.
Thus the situation le clearing, no far aa
tha commerce of the world le eonram
ed. end clearing very rapidly. Japan
even now Is practically reedy lo give
American merchantmen Mfe conduct
both to her owe. port* and to Ihoee nf
China. Thla make, for th. Immediate
benefit of American manufacturer* and
farmer* and It I* difficult to aae why
the price of cotton ahould not begin to

THE CENTRAL OF GEORGIA.
The annunl report of Ihe president
of the Central of Georgia make, good
reading to all who have the Interest
f the elate at heart. While he shows
an Inrrtaa* In Iho grnaa earning* of
1211,000 over IMJ, and net earnings
of $190,000, the n.aeta of the company
have Increeaed nearly a million.
All thla could not have come l" !>*»■
had It not been for the prosperity of
the country trnvrraed by the Central,
which geographically le properly
named. President llaneon gives some
Idea Of the extent of the prosperity by
pointing out Incidentally the develop-
ment of 114 new Industries, established
with a capital of $«.01«.00e along the
line nf the rood, the planting during
tha year ot I.IIMU peach traee, while
SO.OOO cam. In bearing.
It la poaslbl* that no other railroad
company In tha United BUIaa can sub
mit auch evidence of the tin pule, given
tn the Industrial condition* of a ***•
tlon through which It runi. The ra-
port demonstrate* resuscitation In the
highest degree and I* a token thet

Other railroad line*, w# hav* no douhu

Into eny one line of agriculture. The

DEPORTATIONS IN COLORADO
There le renewed activity In Colo

without due reelatenre by the officers
of the law. ran be pul out of th* stale
on one account they may be on another
not eo serious. The Idea I* grounded
In tha doctrine of fore*, carried out by
persona assuming to deal with their
fellow rltltena without any proparly
or legally delegated authority. It la
nothing more then a form of anarch-

An Editorial Remarkable for It* Truth,
its Feirneaa end lie Wisdom,
I.’rom tho Now York American.
Th# newapnpera report—with com
ment* of varying Inaccuracy and un-
(nlrneao— the burning alive of two no.
cross In Oeorgla. Many In tha North,
mi*,I with a sense of their own virtue,
nd comfortably free from any negro
problem, denounce as beaala and un
natural wild man thalr fellow citlsens
In the Bouthem state*. Other* In the
Mouth apologise too sweaplngly
those Implicated In th* burning, excul
pating them too readily.
The metier le eerloue—eerioue In the
North aa In the South. Kor thla every
Intelligent man muat know—what
man In the Mouth will do, a man In th*
North will do under similar provoca
tion. We hav# not one breed of Ameri
cans In the North and another In th*
Mouth. The earns human nature con
trols us all.
Victor Hugo said he never heard of
a crime but he reallied that h* might
hove been rapablt of committing H at
some moment In hla life. The self-
righteous men of th* North should look
carefully Into their own temperaments
before condemning Ihe Southerner* In
loo superior a fashion.
Can anything ba said to excuse the
burning alive of those two negro crim
inals at fltntesboro? No. Rut, while we
may not excuse It, we muat lnv<-etlg*te
th* reasons for It dispassionately.
W* muat remember that the men In
th* rrowd surrounding the burning ne
groes were average men—any crowd
enywber* In the United States would
duplicate them. We must resits* that
there or* still within ua horrible poem-
hllltlea of brutal cruelly. W# know that
only dlausa and long freedom from vio
lence. through many generation* will
wipe out this Innate brutality
muat eee to It that the brutal savage
deep down within ue le not celled to
th* surface. We must not Judge too
haughtily those mon In th* Mauth that
•truggle to aupjiroaa tho cause* behind
the hideous lynching*.
In the men nr the South,' the men
of Iho North, the Kaet nnd the West,
there are all the possibilities nf the
tnnat hideous cruelty. Hut wn have
advanced at least tn this point, that
only horrid crime, horrible provnrn
tlon. ran arouse within ua the Intent
brutality of tho savage.
Them will bo no burning allvo of ne
groes the moment that the negro ceases
to commit the Crimea thet madden nnd
make wild benate of tho lower typos
among whom they live.
Certainly an appeal ahould bo made
to tho nobler eentlmente of the Mouth-
orn mob—and that appeal la made
every day by tha boat and atrongeat
men In th* South. Th* awn brother
of the murdered men. Hodge*, a clergy
man. Implored th* crowd to refrain
from violence and let th* law lake Its
course He acted nobly. And thou
sand* of splendid men tn th* Mouth,
whose provocation# end difficulties we
little understand, art nobly In lighting
th* tendency of lynch law.
Hut, lo understand conditions there.
It ta well to transport ourselves | n
Imagination to th* aren* of th* crime,
both before and after It was committed.
look at Ih* family group—the n*
groea murdered by the mob confessed
that they had murdered and burned all
of tha* family—lha father, th* virtuous
mother hideously maltreated, th* little
baby In tho arm* and Ih* other twu
little children.
There wee the little girl alx year*
old. who aew her fathvr murdered, and
then pitifully held up * penny tu one
nf the murderous negroes, begging him
to take th* penny nnd not hurt her.
Her brains were knocked out and she
was thrown Into th* fir*: It It well to
know th*** things, tn remember that
an eloquent orator reminded the lynch
Ing mob of that little girl's appeal when
Ih* negroes pleaded for merry.
Th* South le etnixgllng manfully
with He great problem, struggling
against odds, end especially against
Ih* cynical, would-be superior criticism
of th* North. If we ran help the Mouth
in lie groat problem we should do eo.
Hut any edvre we may give, any tug
geatlan we may offer, muat take th*
form of friendship, nf sympathy, and of
earnest desire to help, rather than
condemn.
Muppoa* that In soma big city
the North there ahould ooVne a eerlee
of crime*, all committed by negroes.
Muppoa* that on* young girl after an
other were murdered, efter being mat
treated. Buppos* children war* butch
erad and burned. Muppee* that the
husband, going to th* room* of hta
wife, war* knocked on the heed Ilk*

In that Northern section lived aur-
rvuivted hy millions of negroes and

th* Northern community would ho calm

That tuna gets no votes thl* year, and
somewhat awkwardly and with a per.

I* thet It Is all so etrange. No Bryan
to plug at; no huge barn-door target
of free silver thet any tyro could el-
weye hit; Parker, and tho money
question Irrevocably settled! It means
a great change. It mean* work over
time by all the designers for the slo
gan factories, and the readjustment of
sights on political weapon* for the
careful going over of old stock! of
projectile*. All thla take* time, and
nobody, la. or need be. In a hurry to
begin. Meanwhile the nearby Republi
can editors are looking over the new
situation, and some of them ore grunt
ing. "What happened," enye the New
York BlnII, "wo* th* breakdown—the
Inevitable breakdown—of the conspir
acy of alienee. ... We repent, this
a detected plot In which Judge Pnr-
almoet the principal llgure."
'Judge Parker," sere the Tribune,
played a shrewd gnme of politic*. Yet
emerge* creditably from a conven
tion whose moat respectable figure wan
lltlam Jennings Bryan.” "When the
voter*.” saye the Press, "deliver their
verdict on th* Belmnnt-Parker crimp
ngalnat principle and decency, they
will make the silver champion a
greater man than the candidate who
after long silence opened hi* lips at
loot, only to compound a moral and
political felony.”
No doubt the Republican editor* will
miss the silver champion sorely
enough, hut It I* not becoming In them
to sigh for him so audibly. They are
on th* wrong lay. The better front for
them to show at this stage t* that as
signed by rumor to the patriot atates-
man at Oyster Bay. whose egclama-
tlen on the morning of July Id la said
•o hare been: “Thank God. th* Dem
ocrat* have put up a man at last who
It not a menace to the country." And
thle exclamation, like most honest
words that com# from the heart, may
even have been good politics. The
Hartford Courant figure* out that the
stronger the nomine* of the Democrats
anil the sounder their plntform, the
better the chance for Roosevelt. Kor
tt argues simply and reasonably that
the stronger public confidence la In
both candidates and both platforms,
the better for business; and the better
burlneaa la In a prcldentlnl year, the
lean desire there In for a change,
the wlae thing for the Republican ed
