As time goes on the work of the Civic LesgtM grtwa upon th* Intel- llgenea and the approval of the state. Nothing more itgnlflcaut and far reaching In experimental value and in actual present result* haa tlluatratad th* effort* of the last decade to solve the race problem. Taking advantage of a psychological moment of apprehension In tha on* race, and of reaction in tha other, a company of strong and affective men have united to organise a co-operative public oplaloo among the negro** to suataln the element of Taw and humanity among the majority element of the white people. This In a nutshell baa been the spirit and the purpose of tha Cltrlo league—to organise a cooperative public sentiment among thn negroes. This was what the league set out to do, and this it has moat success fully accomplished Beginning with the white eltlren* this Civic League made a clear exposition of It* piano and purposes—to encourage the love of order and the demand for It, the supremacy of the law aod the punishment of all offenses only by the law. It first organised a general committee to do the work. Thl* committee through meetings and private conference* deter mined to carry ou collaterally with lt» own work the organisation of the negroes of the city and of the oounty. Conference* wara-beld with the le nding and Influential negroes In every walk of life. A strong statement ot the situation waa placed before them and with the unvarying asser tion of the supremacy of the white race and Us Intention to control the destiny of the country, theae dear and Intelligent negroea war* brought to nee that their safety and tbalr future prosperity rested In full and un failing co-operation with this vlgoroua and righteous movement on the part of the white man. With a Very simple set of rule* for guidance and with pledges of cooduct always uplifting the law and Impressing the necessity of obadlaace to the general principles under which tha two ' leagues were to work, the plan ot enlargement began. The names of the men at the bead of the movement were e guaran tee of righteous principles and of strong and fearless fulfillment. And tn these name* flocked tram both race* all tha desirable element* of clt- laenahlp In the city and pouuly. The greater part of this preliminary work waa done quietly, almost secretly and absolutely without noise or os tentation. Mark the results: In the Civic League of white men there are enrolled today two thou sand five hundred of the best and strongest men In Fulton county—a numerical phalanx that Is strong enough at any time to control th* tide of public opinion *nd to dominate any crisis that might arise la tha civic life of this community. These men eland aa a unit for the enforce ment of the law, for the suppression of crime and for the preservation of the tradition* and custom* of the South. The co-operative League of Negros* actually Includes at the present time the names of every single negro tax-payer In th* city and county, nnd represents a total of nekrly 3.000 active and influential negroes. This ne gro league act* In perfect confidence In and In complete subordination to the Civic I-eague of while men. A message can be transmitted In an In conceivably abort time from one league to tha other by which thfro thousand negroea In this county could be rallied to the cooperative supi»rt of the Civic League for th* suppression of violence or' for the condemnation of any line of conduct that menaced the public jicace and the relatione of the races. At a signal or message from the Civic League there could be gathered In six hours Into the dif ferent public buildings, churches and school houses of the race, three thou sand negroes to take action of whatever kind might be necessary to pre- serve thn principles of the organisation and the peace and order-nf the community. There Is no friction between these two leagues at any time. They act upon n tierfeet understanding that the original league of white men rep- u'scntlng the dominant race, directs and control* the policies of the or ganisation, and the perfect eonfldpnce which thn leading negroes repose in the dominant forces or this original league remove* any questlou of au thority or any doubt or fair dealing. lA>t u* note some of the fruits of this work: (luring the week of December Zoth there was a vague but geueral ap prehension of some disturbance following as an aftermath of the Septem ber riots. Representatives of the league quietly waited upon the may or, tlio Judge of the city court, the Judge of the auperlor court and thn sheriff of the county to aak at the hands of the** officials such statements and assurances aa would guarantee order during the saaaon of the holi days. Judge Broylea. of the city court, came out In n strong state ment backed by the majesty of the law containing his ultimatum to of- 'feuders against' the public paaco or to the first Inciter ol any strife be tween the race*. Judge Roan, ol the superior court, ever ready In good enuaes, followed with a statement of similar Import and put the danger- nos elements of the community on wanting that the law would be Invoked and executed without mercy upon every offender. Ills honor, the may. or. added Ills assurance that the executive authority of the city of At lanta was of one mind with the Judge* of the courts, and the sheriff of Fulton county promised that he would lend the whole weight of hla office to sustain the law nnd the leaguy at this period of possible danger. Aa a consequence the city ot Atlanta passed through the most perfect Christmas of peace- and quiet that It hat known since the civil war. The rolgu of law was Illustrated In all Its power and In Ita majesty, and thu holiday festival of the Prince of Pear* was celebrated more nearly accord ing to the orthodox fashtim of the gospel than the oldest Inhabitant has ever known. And nil because u strong, masterful and benefleent organisation made It a practical business to aeu the officials and lo put the spoken warning of official Authority behind the splendid volume of resolute Public Opinion which that organisation represented. During the weak of tho holidays there was the ru nor if danger In the negro suburb of Brownsville. Report was brought In that a difficulty had occurred and that a more serious difficulty wa* maturing for tlio’ night. Within ar hour after the rumor had reaehed the city the splendid organisation of the Civic la-ague vindicated Itself. t Promptly and noiselessly, after a ewlft conference with the sheriff and the colonel of the Fifth Georgia regiment, two autopiobllua car- ried representatives of the league to the threatened negro suburb, where a conference was held with Ihe negro representatives of the league In that vicinity Tho negro members responded at once and were aa earnest and as active as the while leaden In Investigating the Incident and In es tablishing a patrol of their owu race to cheek the Are. symptom of disor der ll was the first opportunity lo Illustrate the results of the two or- gauliatlouR. and the Instant, hearty and unfaltering ci- oiH-rntlon of the negro membership—official and private—demonstrated that the movers nr the Civic le-agne had bntldeil wisely and that the organlxatloc was a success. Not a suggestion nf the disturbance marred th'- night, and a resolute force of negro public opinion Joined fo the resolute attitude and leader ship or the Civic l.eague suppressed even the disposition to lawlessness In the community. As to genera) result* It will be conceded by all thoughtful observers tlist the past three months have written Into Atlanta's history a period of order ami good conduct among all classes and both races that has not been surpassed within the memory of this generation of men. (Tlixeiis who will reflect upon tha court records of this period will be emaxed and deltghled at the actual facta and the^dally report*, which ar* almost Imre of personal or general Incidents of disorder or of law-breaklng an>- where. And this admirable and long desired state of affairs has been brought about simply liecause at the psychologic moment a few strong and Influen tial citizens with courage and clearncas of purpose have gone to work not to theorise, but to actively organise the public sentiment of Ixitli races In the vigorous enforcement of >aw and order. The Idea Is nof new. It Is as old at the hills, but the credit which belongs to these men rests In the fact that they did II Instead of talking about It. The Georgian Just preceding the September riot urged and even dumauded that the negro leaden, preacher*, teachers and editors should Join In the effort ro cvcxtCTi puhllcAiplnton among Ihe masses nf Ihelr own race that would suppress crime, do away with. assaults and destroy lawlessness. The negro leaden responded admirably to this appeal and their pulplls. presses and school rooms echoed to the counsel which prob ably made It easier for the Civic league to orgaolte ihelr fellows at this time. but ihe fact that I* vital and suggestive Is the fact that this thing lias been done, this organisation his been perfected, this expoperetton has been secured and (hit the city and Ihe county tn safer and quieter and more admirable In cIHrenthlp than the- bare ben In the history Ot tb* last 20 yean. Bo much tor tha present at laast Is accomplished. This perfectly plain, simple plan which has wrought such wonders In Atlanta and which baa been so thoroughly vindicated In Its results may with perfect eas* and with equally great result*, be adoptsd and applied in other communities of tha South which are fortunate In the possesalon of public spirited cltlsans who will put themselves to tha trouble of organis ing along practical and affective lines a similar league to thli. The ex periment I* notable. The results ao far ar* admirable, and tha “sur- passing problem" Is soothed at least by a realised and common tense co operation ot the races. it remains to mention the names of the original members of the league. They are: Charles T. Hopkins, F. L. Seely, Forrest Adair, L. Z. Rosser. John E. Murphy, H. Y. McCord. George Muse. Robert Maddox. R. B. lUdley. Frank Hawkins, Habbl Marx, John J. Eagan, Walter O. Cooper. H. S. Johnson, A. B. Steele, Alex W. Stirling,, C. B. Winner, F. J Faxon. Charles T. Hopkins baa been from the beginning the chairman of the league, and with tho strong and capable bualnqpa men behind him has been building a movement which promise* more to the practical solu tion of the raco question than any remedy which has bean exploited with in this generation. Thd city and the state are due these gentlemen Its gratitude. In another article we shall touch the great work.dona*by Governor Nortben and the Oospel Union along a similar line. GOVERNOR TERRELL AND JOHN BULLARD. We are not In aecord with Governor Terrell's view of tha public ne cessity ot banging John Bullard while tha promise of speedy death by dis ease waa dlatlnct upon him. • ' But we are very much more at varlanca with a multitude of those who are criticising the governor's motives In th* act. , Wa have the best of reasons for believing that Governor Terrell gave sincere, patient and disinterested consideration to this public question, and that his conclusions, while they were totally opposite to our own, were based upon a sincere conviction of his dffty to society and to the law, * There was a great deal pf feeling over this matter among people who knew nothing of John Bullard and cared nothing for hla Ufa. These people, too, were doubtless sincere In ticir condemnation of the govern or's act, but for our own part, while we as Individuals would have pre ferred to let the vengeance of death take precedence of the vengeance of the law and to yr»lt upon Providence before Invoking'the gallows, we can understand why a public man Jlke the governor, raised In the law, and bred to a conception of Its saoctity. may have felt honestly tflat Ita majesty must'lie vindicated In the presence of the people without wait ing for th* uncertain foreclosure of Nature and Providence upon the body of the criminal. Perhaps It la Just as well to recognlxq that this Is a question upon which there were two aides, and that the governor's side was one. THE FIGHT AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS. There waa another very Interesting and effective meeting held on March 6th by the committees who are organizing for the light against the growth and spread of consumption. Among those present were Captain W. J. Raoul, the presiding officer: Dr. A. W. Sterling, II. L. Schlestnger. Etigpne Mitchell, Dr. Bernard Wolff. Dr. C. W. Strickler. 8. C. Glass, Hon. Alex C. King, Dr. J. A. Suminerfleld. l.eon Eplan, Rablil .Marx aud Dr. K. B. Kline. The Board of Education, the Associated Charities, the Jewish Chari ties' Association, the City Council, thn Citizens at Large, the City Hoard of Health and the Fulton County Medical 8oc!ety were each represented, and after a vigorous and Interesting discussion unity of action waa prom ised and determination perfected to continue amt tn enlarge the light against consumption.' A commttteo of five were appointed for formulating plans nf action for a permanent organisation and suggestion of methods of worbftnd ob jects to be accomplished by the organization. % The need ot n saqjlarium and dispensary, a better support of the State Hoard of Health In a campaign of education were urged and In dorsed by the meeting and It la evident on every side that there will be no relaxation and no surrender In the work In hand.
