R A ————— e—.A I—— -t s o= g g b et et e Rs, The Salt Lake Tribune thinks: The ‘difference between a cud chewing cow and a gum chewing girl is all in favor of the cow. In order to aid the cause of scien tific research, announces the Houston Post, we have at great cost ascer tained that no Houston woman walks by a show window with a trimmed hat in it at a gait faster than 200 yards & year, The St. Louls Globe-Democrat notes that: Anarchy defends its red flag with the assertion that it is =ot a cry for the shedding of blood, but the vis ible sign and emblem of the truth that there is but one blood in man. The plea is a childish dne, Did you know what a musical com position is? Mr. Justice Oliver Wen dell Holmes says it’s “a rational collo cation of sound, apart from concepts, reduced to a tangible expression, from which the collocation can be repro duced either with or without continu ous human intervention.” “Kings are only men.” The expres sion is too flattering, for somé of them are not that, protests the New York Globe. And this is why republlcs re fuse to be ruled by kings and take their chances on presidents. Cecasion ally a monarchy gets the best of it, however, and becomes a democracy by virtve of the example of the man at the helm. Few people realize how large and important a Huguenot settlement was made on Staten Island some 200 years ago, observes the New York World. It ‘seems a great pity that in the rush of improvements there some of tieir an eient landmarks and names cannot be preserved in some form. They were of & type which has gone never to be re produced. The landowner must have interests in the atmosphere up to a certain height, claims the Hamburg Nachrich ten. The proprietor or occupier of property ought, therefore, to have some protection against damage or danger from dirigible flying machines. It is an abominable nuisance, for in stance, when an airship propelled by an ill-smelling motor circles over a man’s garden or house at a slight al titude from the earth, * If food were so cheapened as to cost one-tenth as much as at the pres ent time, what effect would it have upon the increase in numbers? If, argues the Wall Street Journal, as part of one nation's policy, the prem fum were put on quality of population instead of quantity, would the balance of power be shifted against the more highly developed nations and in favor of the numerically larger ones, or would the tide of empire turn in the other direction?

Those principles are as sound and necessary to geod govern ment in the future as they were when approved at the ballog box two years ago, “Time will vindicate them. et “While we accept the result as con clusive for the present year we will not lose courage, “We must seek still to ratify the disfranchisement amendment at the October election, “We must remain steadfast in our devotion to purity in elections and government and to the rights of the masses of the people.” Mr. Joseph M. Brown, nominee for governor, when seen in Atlanta Fri day said: "1 am glad the race is over and am gratified with the result. 1 hope the fight will soon be forgotten by both sides and that no harsh feel ings will be cherished. Having fought each other we will know better how to respect each other as adversaries.” All Atlanta was election mad Thurs day night, and from sundown until al most sunrise the city was awake and alive with shouts, as the returns were received.

At the head strode a man who car ried aloft on his stick a large loat of “Brown Bread.” This caught the crowd. The parade continued until far in the night. . The city was out for a mnight of it, and a night of it was had. Every time a bulletin was flashed on the screen favorable to the crowd which was watching, a cheer went up which was heard all over town, Every building in the city was bril liantly illuminated, and Atlanta took on -a carnival appearance.

For the first time in the history of Georgia, indeed, for the first time in the history of the nation, a governor and his policies have been rejected after one term by the same party which placed him in power. The sowing of the wind has brought its harvest, and the whirlwind of pro test has swept the state. Unlooked-for, unexpected, scarcely believed within the bounds of possi bility, that result has, nevertheless, come—come teeming with a signifi cance that expands as thought dwells upon it, until thought itself is lost still in incredibility. There is no man in Georgia, be he supporter of Smith or Brown, who As a result of the nomination of Jo seph M, Brown as the democratic can didate for governor, Hon. Albert H. Cox of Atlanta will be one of the four delegates from the state at large to the national democratic convention at Denver.

But it will yet be at least a day before either side can come to full realization of what has happened. ~ Untll then, until tha people have had time to collect their reason and ‘ponder calmly upon the weighty mean ing of the people’s voice, discussion of ‘the significance of the result would ‘be useless and out of place. The Constitution will, later, discuss ‘in detalled and analytical manner the meaning of the verdict of Thursday’s primary.
