THIEF.
We a;c all criminals at heart, says
Andre Tridon, New York psycholo
gist. He thinks repression of natural
criminal instincts is all that keeps
most folks out of jail.
That isn’t true.
The instinct of animals is to hunt
their own food, not steal what some
other animal has caught. Except
when starving (hard times in the
animal world), animals do not try
to take what another animal has
caught.
It is man’s criminal instinct that
is unnatural.
RAILROADS.
A plan .for consolidating the rail
roads into 20 big systems has been
worked out by the Interstate Com

ATLANTA, Sept 8. — Governor
Hardwick today offered a reward of
$500 for the arrest and conviction
of the person or nersons who caused
the wreck of the A.. B. A A. train
near here last night by placing dyna
mite on the track. He said he was
prepared to use the power and au
thority of the state to the last re
source to prevent outrages of this
kind.
ATLANTA, Sept. 8. — Military
protection for the employes and prop
erty of the Atlanta, Birmingham &
Atlantic Railway will be asked of
Governor Hardwick as a result of the
numerous casc-s of dynamiting of the
road's freight trains, according to a
statement today by Rcce:ver B. L.
Bugg, of the road, following the
wreck of a freight train on the out
skirts of Atlanta last night in which
the engineer was killed and several
negro trainmen injured.
Engineer John E. Morris, of Fitz
gerald, who was killed last night, was
the first person to lose his life as a
result of the various freight wrecks
reported to have been caused by dy
namite.
A charge of high explosive, touch
ed off under a big locomotive on the
A., B. & A. Railroad trestle at the
Bellwood freight terminals, \seven
miles from here, killed Engineer Mor
ris and injured a fireman and brake-
man. The locomotive was lifted com
pletely from the rails, portions of it
being carried twenty feet onto -an
embankment at the side of the road.
The trestle was damaged and the
track was torn up. Eight c%r* were
derailed.
The train was No. 92, just leaving
Atlanta at the time of the accident,
and due to arrive at Fitzgerald this
morning.
Engineer Morris was a brother of
W. J. Morris, master car builder in
the A., B. & A. Railroad shops at
Fitzgerald. His home was at Fltz-
geruid, where other members of the
train crew also resided.

BROWN NOW PREDICTS

world is on the verge of a cotton'
famine, the extent of which has been

the situation.
“With information I have gather

to me from other states, I am of the
opinion that 1921»will see the big
gest cotton shortage we have ever
known, followed by a Revere cotton
