Just born into the union, presents a Democratic pres idential candidate tn the person of tta blind senator, Thomas P. Gore. At this rata of progress Oklahoma will own tho republic before tta teuth an- ptversary. Counselor Thom, of-the Southern railway, baa vlilted the university, made hit commencement speech, and the university not only survives, but the next state administration la Mill undisturbed In its high Intentions. YVhat a tempest In a teapot that waa! Mr. Thom made an admirable speech. Remarkable la the chargo that four dally newspapers of Chicago, The Record-Herald, Tha Dally News, The Examiner and tha American, have en tered into a conspiracy to force The Tribune of the same city to raise the price of Its 8unday issue to seven cents. Representatives of the alleged conspiracy have been arrested and, if the esteemed Record-Herald Is to be credited* at the Instigation of the equally esteemed Tribune. WUllam Henry Haworth, In a com munication to the New York World, answers the question recently asked by The Georgian. "What la a Re publican?" He says that “tha first and lasting definition, or in other words, the exact meaning of 'What fa a Republican?* la a man that never fired on the American flag." Where upon tho News and Courier, which Is now a diligent student of American history, reminds him that General Orant was a Democrat until after the war, and that General McClellan was Democrat up to the day of his Give us a sensible answer. HOKE SMITH AND SENATOR CULBERSON. , The Houston Post misinterprets Tbe Georgian If anything wo have said has left tbe impression of a reflection upon tbe definite and decided type of Democracy represented by Senator Charles Culberson, of Texas. We hsve not said and we cannot be tempted Into saying anything that impugns In any way the Democracy or the nobis character of the Junior senator from Texas. Wa have more than once paid high tribute to the dignity and the strength of tho principles which he so clearly and so ably I represents. The only comment In which we bare over questioned the superior eli gibility of Senator Culberson as a Democratic candidate for the presiden cy was la the statement that hl» connection with the recent movements of economic reform had not been so pronounced and vigorous In a public way as that of the governor-elect of Georgia. Even In the rate regulation contest In the senate, the senior senator was a more active or at least a more public figure rfian Senator Culberson, and while we do not doubt that gentleman’s willingness and his service along lines of practical reform, we raise the question that these services have lacked that prominence and publicity which would rank him high and notable among the aggressive and militant reformers of the present time, and would commend him es pecially to the popular ballot. We trust this Is clear to The Houston Post and to the friends and champions of the great senator from Texas. But The Poat Itself Is talking childish babble when It say* that Hoke Smith as compared with Culberson Is "a mere novice In statecraft and experience." Tbe Poet forgeta the fact that Hoke Smith ha* been a pflbllc figure of longer service and of even larger notoriety than Its own favorite son. Hoke Smith's administration of the Department of tha Interior un der Grover Cleveland's administration will rest with the ablest and best reputed public services of this generation, and a cabinet officer Is not likely in any forum either of etiquette or repute to take second pltfe to a senator as a figure of first magnitude. And Incidentally wa remind Tha Post that If Ifoke Smith was bora In North Carolina, its own Idol and favorite son was, by Its own confes sion. a native of the itate of Alabama, and a grandson of the greater stato of Georgia. PASTEURIZED MILK SOLVES QUESTION Of PREVENTION OF GREAT WHITE PLAGUE THE OBEAT UNIVERSITY V. W. C. A. BUILDING. The two most notable events In tho religious history of the fortnight In the South sre the wonderful rally of Georgia Methodism to the Wes ley memorials on Sunday. And the equally remarkable success of the state executive committee of the Young Men's Christian Association In raising seventy-five thou sand dollars to equip a great modorn Y. M. C. A. building at tbe university of the state. The first of these events we have already had under admiring and grateful comment It la no less a matter of congratulation to tha moral and religious forces of the state that tbe money haa been raised to Insure tbe build ing at Athens of an tnstlntlon which will have no equal of Its kind among tbe educational Institutions of the South. The building of this great phys ical. moral and religious hall for young men at Athena will give a distinct uplift and a notable moral Impulse to the entire institution and to tbo educational spirit of the state. Every college In Georgia will be bettered by reason of It, and the contagion of this movement will Inevita bly overflow Into similar liberality toward tbe other colleges of tha com monwealth. Let It be remembered, however, that only a aum sufficient to assure the building has been raised, and that It la still vitally desirable that other contributions .should come in to Increase the amount to tha end of completing the building along lines to mnko It comprehensive In scope and Influence. Letters havo been sent out by the atata executive com mittee nsklng contributions to this end. Some of theeo have been an swered generously; others remain unanswered, and It Is to be hoped that thoso who havo tailed up to this time to respond will now Join hearti ly In the great wave of liberality already started and to carry It to the farther shoro of accomplishment. Twenty thousand additional dollars Rre needed to equip Georgia with the greatest college Y. M. C. A. building In the South. Tho Georgian trusts that this great work will not be left half dono, but that those Bp- Dr. George Drown, funper president of the league, has returned from the meeting of the American Anti-Tuber culosis League, at Atlantic City, N. J. and talked Interestingly Thursday morning of the dlscusalo'ns on the sub. Ject of preventing tuberculosis, and of the results gained by the use of pas teurized milk. The war that Is being waged between two rival entl-titbercu. louts organisations waa referred to by him. Dr. Brown did not stand for re-elec tion to ths presidency of the league, and waa succeeded by Dr. Florence Donohue, of Syracuse, New York. In talking of the meeting Dr. Brown said: Necessity of Lesgue. "Our meeting at Atlantic city dem onstrated very clearly the necessity for the American Anti-Tuberculosis League. "The fleet thing that waa made clear by the paper of Dr. Donohue, tho new president of the league, and by all who followed him In the discussion, was that our league Is abreast with mod ern knowledge on the subject of tu berculosis and realists and accepts the fundamental fact that the common cause of consumption Is the Infection of human beings with tubercl* bacilli conveyed Into the human stomach by milk. "Both Dr. Donohue and Dr. Bchroe- der, the Federal expert, showed con cluslvely that consumption must bo fought at the dairy farm and In ths milk supply; and Nathan Straus, the New York philanthropist, showed that the practical way In which to evict tu berculosis from ths milk supply Is by pesrsurising all milk that la under any possible suspicion of being Infected. This Is ths position which was taken within the past month by a. commis sion of the foremost experts In tho country at Washington. "Pasteurisation Is very different from boiling. The latter process un doubtedly causes some coagulation of the milk and may render it less di gestible. But pasteurisation consists In heating the milk for twenty min utes to a temperature of 187 degrees, which Is far below the cooking point, and, therefore. It does not give to the milk a cooked taste and does not ren der It any leas digestible than raw milk. In proving all this, Mr. Straus cited the fact that he had fed 16,000 children In the tenement districts of New York with pasteurized milk with abtolutely good results In all these many casea. Two Societies at War. "Incidentally It was’brought out at the meeting that the National Society for the Study of Tuberculosla was con. ducting a secret and active campaign against the American Anti-Tuberculo sis League. Mr. William Wirt Mills, of New York city, exposed the cause of this hostility. He said that the Na tional Society was dominated by men who were Interested In the certified milk trust, and that It was perfectly obvious that If the milk supplies were made safe by pasteurization, there would be a falling off In tha demand for certified milk, which now brings from IS to SO cents a quart, netting enormous proflts to the trust. “I may sum up the results of the meeting by referring to the resolutions that we adopted, which were to the effect that Infected milk Is the com mon cause of consumption, that the dairy herds should be tested with tu berculin and all diseased cattle weeded out, and the milk supplies should be generally pasteurized to as to kill the tubercle bacilli. Consumption Proventzble. "The members of the league were Imbued with a strong sente of their duty to labor for the prevention of tu berculosis and to spread abroad the knowledge of the fact that consump tion It a preventable disease, and that the bulk of the suffering now caused by this plague can bt removed by mnk Ing milk supplies safe. "When we were In New York we saw nothing more Interesting and more hopeful than the pasteurized milk sta tlons established and maintained In va rlous parts of the city by Mr. Strauss. We saw great Ice boxes on wheels trav- cling about distributing the pasteurised milk from the central laboratory to ths various stations, and we felt that ths world at large and the people of New York In particular ought to appreciate that It was the pasteurised milk con tained In those Ice boxes that was the practical answer to the question, 'What shall we do about tuberculosis? "Of course we fully realize the grav Ity of other mean* of contagion and urge, as we have done for yearz, the value of sunshine, tight and air, and hygienic living as having a great array of factors In the prevention of this die is*. "Dr. Florence O'Donohue, of Syra cuse, N. Y., president of the state board of health of New York, was elected president of the league. "Dr. William H. Mayfield, surgeon In chief of tho Maffleld Sanitarium. St. Louis, Mo., was elected secretary and executive officer. Mrs. J. R. Briggs, of Dallas, Texas, was elected president of the Woman' Auxiliary. "Mrs. Avis Boyce, of Atlanta, first vice president, and Mrs. Josephine Redding, editress of "Vogue,” of New York, secretary. "Mrs. Redding Is also secretary of the Woman's Municipal League of New York city.” ARMY-NAVY ORDERS —AND— MOVEMENTS OF VESSELS 1 1 I : [ THE THEATERS No Performance at Grand.

And the editor takes advantage of tho temporary absence of his colleague to override his modesty and to tell the readers of tho paper Just how much of the credit for Tho Goorglan Is due to the patient, brilliant, untiring work of Mr. Goodwin. The entlro news de partment, the local, social, telegraphic and financial departments of the pa per, sre all under tho guidance of the managing editor. With the alngle ex ception of Mr. Seely, the publisher, no man from cellar to garret bean so heavy a burden of responsibility and deserves therefore so large a measure of credit and congratulation as Mr. Goodwin.

What Is to be the outcome of It all? an unboesed, untrammelled national convention, believing that Mr. Roose- valt’a popularity jmd progressive radi calism are the most valuable assets of the Republican party, persists In re nominating him, what can he do about It?

WE WIN IN ARBITRATION. From The Houston Post.

Prophecy of a Witch. The recent death of Captain Ernest Rhodes, a brother of the late Cedi Rhodes, recalls a strange etory told by Colonel Frank Rhodes, save Ttt-Rlte. A few year* ago Cedi Rhodes turned a Matsbele witch off hla estate In South Africa In consequence of some offense, and the old hag, with hatred burning In her eyes, shrieked out: “Thy days on earth shall be short, and two of these who follow thee.” Curiously enough, five years have seen three members of tbe Rhodes family die shortly after taking possession of the Dalham estate. Cecil Rhodes paid $5(N),600 for the property, and only via- lted the hall once. Toklo’e bank clearings last year were tl,7$o,000.000, an Increase of 5500,000,- 000 over 1*05.

There Is a complete reversal In tho make-up and mannerisms of svery member of the company In this play from that of the present week. From a cowboy to a minister Is the Jump Hughston makes, while Jane Wheatley flits front the gay wife of an Easterner to the emotional role of a London nurse, who goes on the stage and leaves It for a minister.

The management has offered suitable prizes far those who receive the greatest ova', tlons, and there is promised a show the Ilk* of which haa never been seen be fore In Atlanta. Already the manage ment has received notice of a dozen or more who wish to go on, and all will be given a trial. In addition to this, the regular pro- S ram will be given, which Includes rilson and Mayabln, In songs and dances; Lewis and Lesslnger, In the sketch "Fired:” Tommy Wilke, In Il lustrated songs, and William Thomas, who alnga extracts from popular operas. At Whits City. From avtry standpoint, the present week has been the most successful one at White City since the popular amuse, ment resort opened. The weather has been Ideal for visits to a place of recreation such as White City, where there are any number of attractions tn divert jtne* attention from the warmth, and where benches and seats are spread In cool retreat* and shady nooks. The vaudeville theater, under the di rection of Manager Holland, Is doing far better than wa* anticipated, ana the large attendance this week Is a splendid criterion of the character of performance he Is putting on. The fea ture of this week's program I* the orig inal Mike Kelly, the famous Dutch comedian. St. Nicholas Auditorium. Great Interest haa been aroused fol lowing the announcement In last Sat urday's Georgian that there would be an Inaugural carnival on skatng at the link of tho Ht. Nicholas Auditorium at Pones DeLeon Park on the night of Saturday, June !*. This Is the pight following the Inauguration of Govern or-elect Smith. Brill greater Interest attached to the special an nouncement w-nicn will be made through these columns In regard to the Fourth of July, In Saturday's pa per. As an added attraction, Thomas and Raymond Walsh, the champion ama teur skaters of the South, both for stralght-nway distances and fancy strokes, will give an exhibition In cos tunic on that evening. There Is skat ing three times a day at the rink and music at each session. The hours are 11 to 1 o'clock, 3:30 to 5 o'clock and S to 11 o'clock. At the Caelno. There I* a sprinkling of specialty, a smack of vaudeville and a round or two of musical comedy In the absurd farce, “My Wife's Family," serving as the at. traction at the Casino at Ponce De- Leon this week. There Is' no doubt about the fact that this play will not be seen again on the circuit. It la one of those things that aomotlmea has to be. The attraction la on for the remainder of the week. Better Hope Next Week. Starting on Monday night, and con tinuing through all of next week, with the usual matinees, William Gillette's comedy drama, “All the Comforts of Home,” will attract theatergoers to Ponce DeI.eon'a Casino. It Is believed that this attraction will prove to be one of the events of the season. The old adage. "It’s an Ml wind that blows no good,” Is bring demonstrated at this very engagement, for because of the fact that the fall still lingers, n great many of the Welle houses In this sec tion of the country nre being kept open, nnd to supply them with attractions It Is necessary to organize some three or four shows, and one of them Is this dramatic company, headed by Ralph Stewart, who Is not unknown here. Bents for the engagement cun be ob tained at the Bijou box office.
