Dr. George Brown, president of the American Anti-Tuberculosis League, today made the preliminary announce ment of the plana for the meeting of the Leaguo to be held at Atlantic City, June 1 to 4. The eeailoni, which will bring to gether some of the moat famous ex perts on the prevention of consump tion, will be devoted largely to the sub ject now uppermost in the minds of all civilised people, the communication of the great white plague to man from cows through milk. Another subject that will attract considerable attention will be the thor ough study of tuberculonli In the negro race, with a view to bringing out more clearly tho peril to the entire popula tion of tho prevalence of this disease In the negro and his peculiar suscepti bility to Infection. "Tho relation of the milk supply to the spread of tuberculosis,” said Dr. Brown today, "has been made Inevita bly the moat Important question for consideration, by the thorough demon stration for such transmission of con sumption that was made in the recent report of the British Royal Commis sion. "America, though, waa first In dem onstrating that this peril Is a real one. The work of the dairy division of our own federal department of agriculture, antedating as It does the conclusions of the royal commission, put America drat In the field. It should be remem bered that Dr. D. E. Salmpn. then chief of the dairy division of the department of agriculture, and Dr, E. 0. Bchroo- der. superintendent of the government experiment station at Rethesda, Md., proved conclusively that the tubercle bacilli, communicated to the milk by the coir, are a frequent cause of viru lent tuberculosis In man. "It ia for tbla purpose that the American Anti-Tuberculosis League has decided to devote the sessions of June 4th to the particular subject of Tuberculosis in Milk. In order to bring out clearly both the demonstrated, sci entific facts and the practical methods of combating the spread of this dan gerous and usually fatal disease through mOk from untested cows. "This meeting will be presided over by Hon. Nathan Straus, the philan thropist of New York, who has done more for humanity thsu any man In the United 8tates, by teaching the world the practical efilcacy of destroy ing the tubercle bacilli by pasteuris ing the milk supply and who la always foremost In hta efforts to aid human ity. “Papers in this section will be read by Dr. Frauds O'Donohue, of Syra cuse, N. Y.; Dr. Ernst J. Lederld, for mer commissioner of health of New York City; Dr. E’ C. Schroeder, the government expert; Dr. C. W. Saleeby, the famous British scientist, Dr. George F. McCleary, the father of the English Infant Milk Depots; Dr. 81- mon Baruch, authority on Infant hy giene; Mr. Nathan Straus, the found er of the paateurlsed milk charity In Naw York, and other famous special ists In tha work of preventing the tu bercle bacilli reaching humankind ti)rough Infected milk. "The section on tuberculosis In the negro race Is of utmost Importance, es pecially to people of the South, but It also has urgent significance for the people of the great cities. For exam ple. in New York city there Is n dls- | tinet tuberculosis belt, and it ia that section of tho city which Is particular ly Inhabited by negroes. “The only object of this congress Is to benefit humanity and It Is proposed to do this not only by making clear the perils of tho great white plague, butj also by pointing out clearly the prac-' tlcal methods of protection from In fectlon and prevention of tho spread of the disease.” REVIVAL OF PRIDE AND INTEREST IN TEMPLAR MASONRY. Among other things, the Masonic parade of yesterday was a rein- treduction of Templar Masonry to the respect and admiration of the state. It also marks a most wholesome revival of enthusiasm for this great and shining degree of Masonry. It is doubtful If Atlanta ever saw a more Imposing' psrade among a single organisation thin the Knights Templars made on yesterday. Of course, the Blue Ldge Masons, solid and enduring, as always, made a strong and effaetlve showing, but never in its history has Atlanta seen a real Templar demonstration before, and the two long lines which stretch ed from the Fourth Nations! Bank building to the Piedmont Hotel in dou ble order, with their white plume* and flashing uniforms, made as shin ing and spectacular a parade as Atlanta has ever seen. The whole day of yesterday waa from flrat to last a conspicuous suc cess, which even the pouring rain could not dampen or chill. The exercises at the Temple Asylum In the morning were of the most Inspiring order. The hall waa one brilliant mass of waving plumes and handsome uni forms and glowing, cordial, applauding fraternity. The. guests were the most distinguished Masons that have been In Atlanta within the decade, and the spirit of cordiality In tho air was the best of all because it pulsed and glowed with fraternity and humanity and helpfulness and heartiness and hope. Most Eminent Grand Master Moulton, and Very Eminent Grand Stand ard Bearer Norris have won golden opinions by their remarks from all ranks of Georgia Masons. Their splendid spirit aUd fellowship and fine personal appearance and gifts and graces of mind and manner have won them an enduring place In the affection and admiration of the craft in this city. And wo are quite confident that the results of yesterday, both public and private, have left on the minds and hearts of the people of Atlanta an enlarged opinion of the numbers, the power, the Influence and the beneficence of Masonry. HERE'S TO GREATER ATLANTA. Tho Georgian Is jnst as hearty as the heartiest in Its advocacy of the movement looking toward a Greater Atlanta. There la scarcely a city in the country that is not moving along the same line. The Idea is universal. Birmingham has a movement like it. Jacksonville, Fla., baa a movement like It. Richmond, Va., Charlotte, N. C., and every city of life and promise In the South has a movement for a greater city to be made by an enlargement of corporate lines and the an nexation of suburban towns. « And so why should not Atlanta adopt the common Idea and Join heartily In the movement which will give us a greater population with all tho benefits which come to us from numbers? There Is nothing In The Georgian's composition that would halt our enthusiasm because The Atlanta Journal happened to be tbe first to sug gest that Atlanta should fall Into tho general movement of enlargement going on throughout the country. Tha Georgian la not built that way. The Georgian Is not the organ of any man's private spites or personal an tagonisms or small Jealousies. Any man or any newspaper that voices a a movement for the benefit of Atlanta can command the co-operation of these columns first, last, and all the time. And so without regard to who suggested Atlanta's falling Into line with the enlargement movement, and with a frank statement that The Atlanta Journal did first suggest it, wo announce ourselves heartily and cordially In co-operation with the plan. This method of enlarging population by the annexation of suburban territory Is the tactics by which Chicago has come to rank as the second city of the country. This Is the method by which New York thwarted tho ambition of Chicago to become the first city In population by the wholesale scheme of annexation which made Greater New York the second city in the world. This,Is tbe method by which Memphis has presumed to increase its population to tho point of successful competition with Atlanta. This Is tho method by which Birmingham even now la looking for ward ambitiously to such additions to Us population os to claim an equality with Atlanta by the next census. This Is the plan which Is in the mind of every city In tho South of approximate population to Atlanta by which It hopes to attain an equality with this 20th century city In tho coming census of 1910. And so with the municipal knives of our rivals whetted for our nu merical scalp, and with tbe example of the greater cities of tho country to indorse the plan, It la high time that Atlanta and all the people who live In and about It should fall heartily and enthusiastically Into line to make Atlanta assume Its proper rank next to Louisville and New Orloans as the metropolis of the South. The Georgian Is not unmlndfnl In this connection of tho rights and In terests of our suburban neighbors. Their opinions and their wishes are entitled to the profoundest re spect. We are not In favor of any rough riding over these towns for our own glory. A man has no right to marry a koman against her will, and a greater city ought to have no right to swallow a smaller city against ita will. But the thing to do In this matter Is to send out agents and repre sentatives of our Greater Atlanta plan to confer with the suburbs to per suade them of the advantages which will come to them rrora this en largement of our territory and thla Increase of our numbers and to In duce them willingly, cordially and happily to become a part of our munici pal household. This Is not only tbe better, tbe larger, and the nobler way, but it Is also tho most successful way. We aro thoroughly convinced that with the case properly presented there la not a suburb of Atlanta that would not be glad to be Incorporated In it* limits. And so with the sweet oil of persuasion and the perseverance of earnestness, let us accomplish the purpose which arbitrary action and dic tatorial direction might easily thwart. % Wo trust the committee having thla movement In charge will at Ita first meeting appoint committees to take up this matter In a cordial friendly conference with the suburban towns and proceed with tbelr full and hearty cooperation to success. - SOME DEMOCRATIC AFTER VIEWS ANOTHER FARMER FAVORS IMMIGRATION. To tho Editor of The Georgian: „ A reply to Ntate Lecturer O. M. Davla, of the tarinrrft' union, on Immigration: . I read la tbe Hntunlajr't iaauo of Tot Georgian the objections Mr. Davis rare why tbe Farmers' unlou opposed Immigra tion. r It.: ••We object to tbe class of people which will emigrate from Europe, mid feel that they would not be desirable dtlaens.'* The Farmers' union le a large and grow ing secret organisation of thelarmera. and as I am a farmer and fruit grower* and waa once an alliance man and always a Democrat, i think I am eutltled to lie heard on this Important subject. The Farmers' union Is organlsiHl for tbe purpose, ae I understand Ita object, to Improve the condi tion of tbe agricultural and laboring claases ou the farm. Mr. Darla* aaaertlon that "we feel that Immigrants from Europe would not be de sirable cltlaena" Is not supported by facta, la It not a fact that America waa flrat settled by Immigrants from Europe? 1 aay Mr. DarTs eau_trace >ls people to does ■unini iFBiray. i'Ui u«* wuuiti be uuur the less a good man If he waa from the grand German empire. I want to aay, we hare some as mean ind undesirable rltlsens that aro natlrs- born Georgian and natlre-born Talliot coun ty cltlaena as are to he found anywhere. Home hare been hung, tome are In the chnlngang and others are untried and un- conrtrfeu, that are a disgrace to clettlsa- tlon. and they are to be found In every county In the I’nlted Htatcs. We want good, honest working people, and t am sure the Immigrants from Ger many. Hcottand. Irelnnd and other parts of Europe deserve better treatment tbsn to condemn them without evidence or trial.

You will find It elsewhere In this Issue, under the caption of "The Milk In the Pen dleton CocoanuL” “Th* Author'of the 8peech.” Birmingham Ledger (Dem.). Hon. John Temple Graves, editor of The Atlanta Georgian, who has recent, ly sprang Into the political limelight as a national figure by his suggestion that Bryan nominate Rdonevelt for the presidency, received hta academic edu cation at Tuskegce. It Is also a re markable coincident that Mr. Graves Is a direct descendant of John C. Cal houn, the eloquent South Carolina statesman, the greatest debater per haps that the country has ever known. Colonel Graves Is below the average In stature, as well as the fatal gift of physical beauty. He Is endowed with a head that would establfsh hi* right to be called tha "eloquent and brainy" Georgian. 8hort on Presidents. Dalton Citizen (Dem.). John Temple Graves says the Dem ocratic party has always been right, but abort on presidents. Very true. Indeed, and we see no Immediate Indi cations of making up the shortage, either. Better file a claim and let It go at that. Prom a Glass House. Buffalo Times (Dem.). The Chicago Chronicle Is pained be cause President Roosevelt x has been "greatly humiliated” by the compli ments paid him by certain Democrats, notably John Temple Graves and Wil liam J. Bryan. It says: "President Roosevelt has not deserved the humill. atlon." John R. Walsh, who has been In dicted on many counts for fraudulent transaction* and has boldly defended Illegal contributions of policy holders' money to political campaign funds by official* of Insurance companies. Is continually paying the president com- tllments through his Chicago Chron- cle. If the president Is not humili ated by these he will certainly not feel humiliated by compliments paid him by Mr. Graves and Mr. Bryan, who have clean records. Mr. Walsh Is not properly housed for stone throwing. To “Jumping Jacks and Politicians.” Dalton Cltlxen (Dem.). John Temple Graves’ Idea that Bry an should put Roosevelt In nomination for the'presidency may seem reaction ary to party Jumping Jacks and politi cians, but a careful analysis will re veal much wisdom In the suggestion. Bryan Has No Doubt. Waynesboro Citizen (Dem.). If any one doubts Colonel Graves’ high regard for William J. Bryan, the Great Commoner, let him read Colonel Graves’ editorial of recent date In The Atlanta Georgian with the caption, •8ome Political Reflections.” “Sound Doctrine.” Knoxville Tribune (Dem.). John Temple Grave* Insists that we should be great enough to forget the Individual and the dogma, "for the sake of real and vital relief.” That this Is sound doctrine will hardly be denied, not by men who caro more for the whole people than for any Indi vidual. > “Larger and Nobler Victories.” Waynesboro Cltlsen (Dem.). ‘It Is the very crisis of popular and economic liberty," says John Temple Graves, “which moves men to rise above ths partisan to look for the larg er and nobler victories without regard to party." And that Is true. “And Why Not?" Lexington (Ga.) Echo (Dem.). Much has been said here of late In regard to the proposition made by Hon. John Temple Graves that Mr. Bryan put th* name of President Roosevelt In nomination as the Demoeratle stan dard-bearer for tho office of president The proposition has brought forth a great deal of comment from the press and the people of the country, pro and oon, but the greater part of the talk in the press has been on the con side. While It Is true Mr, Roosevelt Is n Republican, and In former utterances made public through book and periodi cal, It would seem he was a staunch member of the Republican party. While many of his former utterances do not seem to carry with them Democratic notions, great lasuea have presented themselves to the president for solution and h* has grappled with them In great measure successfully and with the end In vie* of aettllng them In the .j pi I thought the union held, ss the facts do prore, that there la no overproduction of cotton, but an underproduction of price, caused mainly hy the theory, he reasons on, lielng so disastrously carried out by the farmers of tbe cotton growing state*, vis.; railing all cotton nnd buying niostjall of their supplies In the Weet from forebru Immigrant farmer*, which wc need so bully here In the goal old stats of Georgia.

Interest of the masses. He baa shown himself In many particulars to be tbe friend of the people against the greed of monopoly. In many respeefb he has made a good Democratic jiresldent. He Is a strong man, with conviction and back-bone, and because of experience and the fact that he ha* well In hand the reins of government, would be a greater force In the furthering of legis lation and changes already begun than posslbry any other man In the country, If he would accept the Democratic nom ination and stand for the principles fsr which Democracy stands, why would It not be a proper thing? A Sound Georgia Democrat. Sylvanla Telephone (Dem.). Nothing that has happened recerttly has created so much comment in tho country as the suggestion made by Hon. John Temple Graves at the Chat tanooga banquet As a matter of fact Mr. Roosevelt Is by for the strongest man before the American people today—stronger now than he has ever been—and should lie run for the presidency again and stands to his guns as he has In the past no other man ot any party would stand any chancs of beating him. It Is Just as well to recognize this fact In the outset Personally, Mr. RooseVelt Is tho most popular president the Ameri can people have ever hod, and when It comes to the great and burning Is sues that now agitate tho public mln-1, and that roust be settled In the near future, no man has taken more ad vanced ground than he. Even Mr. Bry an himself, great and good Democrat that he Is, can not claim any greater zeal for the cause of the people against the plutocrats than Mr. Roosevelt. We have all heard about tariff re form, centralization and such things as these, from time Immemorial! they do very well, perhaps, to shout In a na tional campaign, but there are real Is sues now that press for settlement and before which these other* must retire, until there Is nothing else to talk about, The adjustment of the relations between the railroads .of this country and the people, and the control of the power of corporate wenlth tq Its career of greed and avarice—these are the live and burning questions In which the people have a vital Interest. As we see It. their settlement Is more Important than the selection of uny one man or the triumph of any party. Let the best and the strongest man make the fight. If Mr. Roosevelt Is that man. then well and good. If It should be Mr. Bryan, then so much the better. Mr. Bryan himself had the true courage to say. In reply to Mr. Graves, that If. aft er mature consideration and reflection* and tho presentation of the argument* In the case, he should be convinced that his duty lay In that direction, he would present Mr. Roosevelt's name, If It should prove the last act of hi* Ufa That was manly talk, and show* Mr. Bryan Is all right.

Freight Is piled up on the steamship piers In west and south Brooklyn and Hoboken. Steamships are tied up at their docks and sailings have .been delayed from five hours'to several days. Already tho strike is regarded as tho largest New York has ever had. Efforts to fill the places of the men with strike-breakers have done little besides precipitating riots, some ol which have resulted seriously. Fifty men were Injured In a riot In Williamsburg between 200 strike-break ers and as many union sympathizers. The riot was fierce, and the police haj a hard fight to quell It. Strike-breakers are still being used In Brooklyn and other sections In as Ineffectual effort to break tha tie-up o! freight. 'NO EARTHLlt POWER CAN ALTER POPE’S DECISION” —THOMAS W. LAWSON.
