THE (.HnHTII OF aoi TII (iEoROU.
The cenaua returns are very Kr.UU> mg
In Sou'll Georglana. In Hie (net teei
years iheir eectioo of the etate kiaa xrown
much faster (han the non hem section. Ainl'
tiH-re k> reason for thla. Nearly all of
the South Georgia counties are mlmlr-ibly ■
nla pled to axrlcullure. Tho climate Is
cxcellrnt oml the hind Is fertile. In
deed, It Is doubtful if ariywh-re else In
the world ore there mure adractlona tor
farmeiv.
In every one of these counties strain and
cotton yield abundantly when properly
and uar cane arc rown not only very
aiu-cessfully lm very profitably. Both
soil ond dlmaso are admirably adapted
to fruits, such as |*acbee, pears and
pr.ipcw It Is doubtful If In all the land
there la a more favored spot than South
Georgia. R la capatbie of sustaining ten
times the population It has.
t'nlesa those who know this aecilon of
the a:ate thoroughly are greatly mbinken
It will not I* many years before land
In all of us counties will command double
the price that Is a-ke.l for It now. It
Is getting an excellent class of immi
grants, and the number of them Is ied
lly Increasing. It 1* gratifying to know
that the whole stale Is prospering, bui
ll is especially so to know that South
Georgia la making such rapid progress.

The burning to death at the stake, of
the negro John Port* r near Ldmon, Colo
rado. on Friday, was mob law in t;
worst form. It was a terrible penalty
that he paid for his crime and there is
no doubt that he deserved itie punishment
ttMit was meted out to him. but it Is to
bo profoundly regretted that the law was
no |*©nri)lttcd to tak© its course It is a
question If horrifying punishment* inflict
ed by a mob have ad terr* nt effect upon
tbos© who are criminally inclined But it
Is certain that they have a bad effect upon
the communities In which they are In
flicted
Th© burning of the negro Porter was
not for th© purixise of satisfying Justice,
but of gratifying a desire for vengeance
The footings of the Injured father wer©
permitted to dl'tate the punishment. If
tho law had been permuted to take it*
course Justice would have been done, and
Hi© people of Lincoln county would have
been more ready and Willing in the fu
ture to n*©pcct th© law. Th© horrible
lynching lowered their moral standard
and prepared them for other scenes of
Iftuk^RKS?.
When there was a lynching by burning
In ihis state, a year or two ago, tt was
intimated in many of the Northern papers
that such a thing could not have occurr
ed anywhere in tide country outride of
ih© Mouth. At that time w© took the po
sition that it was Just as likely to occur
It* a Northern a* a Southern state under
Similar conditions.
Colorado is a long w y from th© Mouth,
and its population is composed largely of
Northern people. Th© lynching there was
as barbatoils a the on© in this state or
the on© in Tex.© . each on© of them being
ly fit© And there Is no doubt that If a
negro wer© to commit in Ms eachusetts
[or New York a crime lik© that committed
by Porter, he would b© lynched at the
stake if the crowd could succeed in get
t ng him away from th© ofllccrs of the
law.
After this Colorado affair It will not be
ihargid in any n©wqsip©r that has a
proper regard for the truth that only In
me M ui! m a negro • nmuml in danger
f being huttxd to death by u mob The
truth is ih© civilization of this country t*
lhout the Kame in one state a* It 1s in
a noth* r. The Mam Hose tragedy and the
John Porter tragedy show this lo be the
liiia.
Muring the last t*M u year - **7 lives and
f*.fioo.ono worth of property were saved
by th© Life Saving Service, at a total cost
of little more than ti.saMKP This is a rec
ord of which the service may well b©
proud. It is no: out of place, in this
connection, to *.y that the life-savers,
woo undergo severe hardships ami tak©
great rt>k* of the*r lives, are among the
l*oorert laid of government employes.

The f.lnrlntas Football Game.
From the JYvrtiand Oregonian.
Away with the feeble prlae fight.
Away with the lifeless ring.
Away with the palsl.d short-arm Jab
And decrepit full-arm awing;
For our blood Is hot within us.
And the sport is dull and lame.
And we thlral for the blood that streaks
the mud
At the glorious football game.
Hurrah for the seething scrimmage,
Of the tangled twenty-two!
Hurrah for the writhing legs and arms
Of the smiting, lighting crew!
Hurrah for Hie Mood of battle
Thai dyes Ihe mass with flame.
And the grewoome groans and the melting
moai.s
Of Ihe glorious football gamel
From the tense and line-up,
Before the first wild rush.
When the slashing, smashing guards go
down
In a gnarled and knotted crush.
Till the stretcher* itome to carry
Away the maimed and lame;
There Is pure deilght In the very sight
Of the gkxious football game.
We wee the gory garment*
In shred* and tatters rerd.
W watch the frantic halfback Jump
I'pon the pmne left end;
We w itch Ihe doughty fullback
Bible o'er the line to fame.
And we catch our breath In the fear of
death
At the glorious football game.
And their limbs are wrenched and swollen.
And their hea'H are gashed and sore.
And the gutters 'round the white-lined
field
Are running red with gore;
But the "sub.*'' relieve th* wounded.
Ami the piay roes on the same—
Let the dying lie In their hinod snd die,
And go on with the glorious game!
We cheer from the thronging grandstand
And the bleachers echo Kick,
A* we track the hall through all Its long.
I'ncertaln. sinuous track.
And in yell* that cleave the heavens
Our ecstasy proclaim.
And shout til: hoarse through ihe chang

Of the glorious foolhall game!
And when the flght I* finished.
And th* wounded borne so bed.
And a few heartfelt but hasty trara
Are shed above the dead,
We rush upon Ihe players v
And we t>*ar with glad acclaim
The surviving few of tha twenty-two
From the aceno of the glorious game.
Then down with the palsied prtseflght.
It's a brief ami Iwotles* bore;
And It's stale and tame beside the game
That Is sport to the very core;
He only Is a hero
Who fight* his way to fame
At the risk of life through the struggling
strife
