It aeema to have been definitely arranged that In one of the greater magazines of the country, Mr. Bryan, of Nebraska, and Mr. Beveridge, of Indiana, will engaga la a aeries of Joint debates on paper over -the principles and prospects of tbs Democratic and Republican parties at the present time. It in needless to any that the prospective contest la eliciting great Interest gad attention and that the magazine has made a ton-strike la seen ring the ezduelve rights to the verbal klnetoecope of tbla politico- oratorical duel. Of course, there are varying opinion* u to the outcome of the coo- test, and antithetical opinions aa to wfetch of these two at*teamen will be voted at the end to have had the beat of the encounter. Singularly enough It Is the Democrats wbo art apprehensive a boat Bryan and the Republican* wbo are expressing doubts of Beveridge's capacity to hold hla own. To our mind the contest ought to be a very even one so far ai tbe character and equipment Of the two are concerned. They are bdlh orators rather than writer*. Senator Beveridge beiooga to tbe .Wendell PhUUpa type of oratory with IHtl* action and few gestures, hot with great reserve force and magnetism, nod nsen admirable Engl (ah and aometlmea an ornate and beautiful rhetoric. - Mr. Bryan le more essentially an orator ta the dramatic force and action of hla delivery, tad I* undoubtedly possessed upon tha platform of grantor magnetism than the Indiana senator. In an oratorical contest we would not hestIUte upon the mere qua*- uon of effect ns a tut of oratory, to propfeeey victory for the Nebriskan orer the Indlantan. In tbe Held of letters Mr. Beveridge has seme point* of advantage over Mr. Bryan. He hu bun a prolific and ah unusually vtgoroba con tributor to tho magazine* since bla first entrance Into tbe senate ten years ago. In fact It Is an open.aeeret among Mr. Beveridge's friends that tbe .larger part of hla Income la derived rather from. the periodi cals than from hla senatorial salary, and that ha hu sustained hlmielf no well and bun so eagerly sought after In this line indicate* that he bad bun a popular and' highly successful writer for the magazine* Upon the mere basis of experience and the knowledge of the trick* of the pen and tbe twists of the magasln* audience, we should Imaglns that the id-~ vantage of eapertnu* ruled as much with Mr. Beveridge In the pen u It would with Mr. Bryan with tbe tongue. One tblng It eure. If there should be any decided advantage resting with either party In tbla most Interesting controversy. It will Inure mag nificently to the political advantage of the victor. Senator Beveridge especially hu a great stake at luue In the' reeult of the series. If be should In the Impartial Judgment of the pfebllc happen In any way to best Mr. Bryan In tbla matter. It would go very far toward tnakiog Mm tbe most popular man In tbe Republican party, and petbap* the logical nominee of bla party for tbe pruldency. That party, already at sea, and looking for some man more popular than any on* now In sight, would be practically certain to light on the Indiana champion If he should bur himself with very conspicuous ability against tbit most redoubtable of all antagonists. Senator. Beveridge doe* not belong to the radical ele ment of hie own pnrty. irhlch menu that h« li sot a "radical oauaeii- atlve." He hu trained with President Rooeevelf and la supposed to be very much In sympathy with tbe president's attitude end hu given vigorous eigne o( en Independence of the caucus dictate* of hla party. It la not likely that tbe ruulta of tbe contest will very materially affect Mr. Bryan. If be wins It simply gild* with an additional lnstar a prestige already without approximate rivalry In tbe ranks of hi* party. If the verbal duel should result in a draw or even In a trilling advan tage for the Indiana senator. It will not be accepted u general by tbe Idolatrous followers of Mr. Bryan throughout tbe country. And whatever the Intellectual fortunu of the conflict, It ta perfectly certain that the Impreuion of superior sincerity will reat with the great leader of, au-daflnlte democracy. To sum up the situation, Mr. Beveridge ha* everything to gain and not much to tou by thin encounter. He la sufficiently utute to realise that success In thin matter will advance him eo far In the affection of the Republican rank* u to put Fairbanks' teeth on edge and to pull down the scales of popularity even against the gigantic Taft Well, we will watch the cootut by round*, and w* have no fear that the champion of Demoo racy win lose hi* laurels in tha Hats of speech. whenever It does a good and meritorious thing In this or any other line, It would be a good policy In some practical way to communicate the fact to a neighbor who Is at one* so near In proximity and so liberal In policy ns Tbe Georgian. raom-aonm huuohem, . ~ *T personally sacrMce my Decided love of the histrionic, and do not attend even tbe good plays that come to Atlanta, because there are eo many who would mistake uy approval of the good as an Indorsement of theatergoing as an Institution, without dis crimination.”—Rev. John E. White, D. D. "Here." aaya Tbe Constitution, "la where we differ from Dr. White." And- here, ways The Georgian, 1* exactly where we agree with Dr. Whit*. Further than this, we share the view that when preachers gen erally Indorse the theater because It le not whdlly bad. and because some plays are good, there will be no one left to resent the vast number of play* that are wholly evil. Above all we believe that th|g of all tlmea la not the time for. the preachers to become more worldly Instead of becoming more spiritual and consecrated. The drift away rrom the old creeds Is fast enough. The lapse of the old time religion le pronounced enough as It Is, and we are moving all too fast In some directions toward a church tbnt "will not Interfere either with your politics or your business." When the preacher* are turned loose In the theater*, It won't be long before they are at the race track which "hna eome noble features" In the game courage of the beautiful animals and the cool courage of the little Jockeys. And then, you know, It la a "grant training to (ha Judg ment" to "bet dlecreetly and aticoMifully" upon the results. Dr. Broughton scores a strong point In quoting Edwin (tooth and llenry Irving upon the danger and demoralisation of the itage. and the watchful care which they exercised over their children In attending It.

Municipal ownership la tba ordar~oF the day all over the country. What does It mean? Public enterprise! revenue-producing qualities for the benefit of the cltlsens wherever estab lished. Therefore, why saddle upon the county of Fulton, the city or Atlanta and Ita tax-payers an enterprise that will cost them not less than 111,041 per annum, at tha least, making a total of not less than 1450.000 of Interest, be aldea 4250,000 of bonds when paid off, say within thirty yaara? We already have an enterprise that la a dead revenue proposition that coal the county, city nnd tax-payers of At lanta at least 115.000 per annum, wblch could, and should, be made a revenue- producing property. We need both ot these enterprises and should bava them, but why not make a bualneaa proposi tion of them, producing revenue suffi cient to care for thalr expenaee and re pairs? If tha auditorium were con structed upon' such a proposition, by the time the bonds become due tho property centrally located, would b> worth not less than from to three times what It would coat today.- We need nn auditorium that would teat at least 5.000 lo 0.000 people. One of auch a elan would be eufflclent for the neat fifty years. Chicago, the greatest convention city In the West, ha* one of the finest of auditoriums, with a seating capacity of leu than 4,000, which la sufficient for a city of two million people. Its revenue-producing qualities are such that they pay all expanses and a hand some dividend annually. It la about two hundred feet In length by on* hundred In width, with boxes and galleries, so that an auditorium of on* hundred and fifty feet in width by one hundred trod ■oventy.flve In length’ would aaat not leu than from 7,000 to 8,000 people. Therefore, a lot two hundred feet square would be eufilolent for such an auditorium. Build an auditorium In the center of the city and get a revenue that will care for tha building and Interest on the bond and whan the bonds ar* paid off, the property will be ever eo much more valuable than at the present day. A committee ot thru could readily secure a plat of ground and arrange by giving the rental (or a certain length of lime to secure the ground free; the property to be In control of the city; the rentals to pay for the property, and after doing so, a revenue of not leu than from ten to fifteen thousand per .annum would go to pay off the bond* for building purpose* and care for the enterprises, thus uvlng to ths city and tax-payers not lam than 4750,000. Instud of causing them to spend over a million and have nothing to show for ume. The council should look well Into any scheme that contemplates placing such Indebtednem on the tax-payers of At lanta when they can get an auditorium from the start, and within four min utes’ wain at every hotel sod depot lu the city. Hoping you will take tht* matter up for the Interest of Atlanta, 1 remain, Tours respectfully. MALCOLM M'KEILL. HOW CARMACK CAPTURED HIS COLLEGE DIPLOMA FIGHTING THE WHITE PLAGUE. There comet to The Georgian from .substantial and Influential sources the moat gratifying evidence that public attention haa been largely and practically aroused to the prevalence and spread ot tuber cular diseases and to tbe absolute neeeulty of providing both sanitary prevention and remedy. Strong men and thoughtful men In and oi^t ot the profession* have expreuod an Interest In this matter, and at an early date a meeting of practical business men will be held to consider and set on foot a move ment to give some deflnlte shape and direction to the humanity and pub lic spirit of the city and <4f the people toward this groat and vital affair. We are not ready at this time to announce the line of suggestion or action in this nutter, but we take occasion-, to Inform our friends that this wholesome and vital Intereat will not nlute short of tome deflnlte policy and conduct In Ibe premise. AN ERROR CHEERFULLY CORRECTED. A correapondettt of The Constitution quotes * recent local Item In The Georgian to the effect that there was not-ta existence any complete map nf Georgia nor any one that showed our new county of Ben Hill. And The Constitution's cnrrvl|>ondent call* attention to the new map Issued by that pa|ier, and wonders why The Georgian does not do justice to It* cx(steuce. l'pon this hint. The Georglnn sent nt once tor a copy of The Con stitution's map.' and having seen It cheerfully nukes the correction. We would not under any consideration do an Injustice to our ever esteemed contcmiiorary In any statement, and hsMng made one which would seem to to he based upon a certain all too prevalent habit ot Ignoring the vlr turn and achievements nf one's con tempura ties, we now lake pleasure lu saytug that The Constitution has published a moat admirable and com plete map ot tho state of Georgia Including the new county of lien Hill fully up lo date In every particular, and that It deserves credit for Ita taste and enterprise, and that we shall cheerfully hang upon the walla ot our own sanctum The Constitution's map which baa Just com* fee the Drat Ume to our attention. w: I:--" cirrtrc: '—"I nr'.-'l-r t - > lira vli, tl—t Washington, Ksb. 4.—A man who will lie really missed In the senate after March 4 It Edward Ward Carmack, of Tennessee.

Professor Webb Is said to be a strict disciplin arian, and generally during the course of a scholaatlc year he expels on an average ot from twenty-live to thirty * students for violation of rules. Hontehow Mr. Carmack managed to dodge the expulsion bomb throughout the year* of hie term. He wa* a bril liant student and was selected as the class orator at the graduation exer cise*. After hit selection for this post of honor Professor Webb gave him special Instructions about preparing his oration. He was to get It ready In plenty of time. etc. Two weeks before the day set for the exercise* Webb tent for Carmack and asked to see his speech.

"Mr. Carmack." said the professor, ‘‘will now deliver the class oration." Much, to Professor .Webb's amuse ment. Mr. Carmack got up and de livered off-hand one of the finest class orations that had ever been heard In the school. He was forgiven on -the spot and received his diploma.
