This will not fio. Every colonel should be re quired by epeclsl law to add fifty yards more of heavy gold lace to bit uniform. No blooming admiral from abroad should be allowed to take off the shlno of a genuine Georgia colonel.—Americas Re corder.

To the Editor of The Georgian: It Is too funny—that story I heard about sixteen of our senators. A rep resentative of one of the Atlanta brew eries said to a friend of mine: "M—. It Is ridiculous. The people of Georgia hive actually sent sixteen blankety-blanks to the senate who never held office before, and w. can’t do a damn thing with them!" Now. Inn peaceful cltlaen and I don't want to create any funs In our glorious senate, having them nrramble for a place among the Verdant sixteen, but I want to submit that such a com ment from an employee of a house that foeia like "business will be ruined If we have prohibition" la as refreshing In Its revelation as It is rough and crude and funny In expression. All hall the verdant sixteen! And all hall likewise every other senator and representative who le standing like a marble column before the onslaughts of the liquor power! They are heroes, In deed. In the greatest civic hour that Georgia has ever known. WM. D. UPSHAW. Tice President Georgia Anti-Saloon Atlanta, Ua. A LIGHT FOR THE MOUNTAIN GIRLS OF GEORGIA. A picture seen three times a day In the dlnlnff room of a North Georgia hotel has a bearing upon this question of Immigration weight ier than the lntereat of the manufacturer or the railroad magnate. As the l Jests of the Haddock Inn st Toccoa take their seats at ta ble they are Instantly waited upon by a half score of rosy cheeked and swift footed maidens of Georgia. These are mountain girls belonging to that great class of whom we shall hsar more hereafter. They come from the noble mountain school at Demorest In Georgia, and Proprietor Blmpson, of the Haddock Inn, from the beginning of his ownership in this hotel has used them Instead of negro waiters to perform all the domestic duties of bis household, paying them salaries as liberal as would be paid to men for the purpose of siding them to complete their education at the Demorest school. This is a domestic picture not often seen In the South. In the North It Is common—almost universal. Scarcely a dining room In the smaller hotels of the central states and the West ha* any other attendants than the young white girls of that region who are In most cases using this service to secure the funds to complete their education. Mr. E. P. Simpson, proprietor of the Haddock Ion, la a man of af fairs, a capitalist and a great hearted philanthropist In the quietest and most unpretentious way. The beautiful hotel at the foot of Toccoa Falls Is a mere Incident among bis multitude of Investments and In It bo finds a home for himself and bla family during the heated tsrm. He and his noble wife are profoundly concerned, aa all good man and women ought to be, In tho welfaro and development of the mountain folk about them. They are believers, as all senalble people ought to bo, in the theory that manual labor must be made to appear honorablo and respectablo among all classes of our people who are not rich enough to choose tbelr profes sions and to follow the Immediate bent of their Inclinations. In time past tho monopoly of all manual service by the negro has had a tendency to shut out tho people of narrow means. In and out of the mountains, from doing those things which are honorable and profitable as welL Mr. Simpson practlcallxes his creed by giving employment to os many of these people as bs can find, and he supplements his employ ment by kind treatment and wise counsel and uplifting moral Influences thrown about the young pcoplo who do his work. It Is tho heart's desire of this noble couplo of North Georgia to do something practical and sub stantial for the young people of the Georgia mountain region. Mr. Simp son Is the proprietor of much property around Toccoa Falls. As an evidence of the practical philanthropy which pulses his veins, be stands ready at any time to contribute this beautiful hotel and this brilliantly beautiful scenery which Immediately surrounds It to a great school of mental and Industrial training for the mountain glrlB of North Georgia. ■ We are authorised to say for him that if any capital can be raised to sustain such a school and to Insure Its proper and continuous conduct, that he Is ready to contribute one of tho two most beautiful spots In all Georgia and In all the South with a well equipped and beautiful building as a nucleus for the school. No moro princely proposition has been presented by a private cltlxen of Georgia In many years. No one can realize Its scope or Its power ex cept those who have seen the place. If Tallulah Is the “Orand and Ter rible,” Toccoa Is tho soft and "beautiful” spot In Georgia scenery. The Fell Is a bridal veil of singular beauty, and the creek or brook which runB from It joined to other brooks emptying Into it make a sylvan doll as beautiful as any to be found In the South. It is an Ideal home for children as well as for grown people! Tho hotel Is three atorios high with wldo and spacious verandas, large and airy rooms, an amplo dining room and a hall upstairs amply large for an assembly room for a number of girls. No more beautiful site for a college building can be found In Georgia and The Georgian Invokes the attention and Interest of all those who love humanity and would do a noble servlco to their race la tho superb oppor tunity suggested by the generous proposition of this noble hearted citizen of Toccoa. Theso mountain people of North Georgia are a problem that press heavily upon the consciences and responsibilities of tho state. They are a multitude In numbers and they are of our own race and blood and have a near and primal claim upon our philanthropy above every alien and unasslmilablo race. The Georgian has felt for years that the first philanthropy of the stato and tho South should bo directed toward the mountain people. Two or three admirable efforts have been made In this direction. Miss Martha Berry's school In the Flatwooda of Floyd county has attracted the attention or every thoughtrul educator and of every noble philanthropist la the state and has achieved a national reputation. Andrew Ritchie Is doing a noble work for mountain boys In his school at Rabun Oap, and here juat In another part of the territory comes this superb opportunity tor state or Individual philanthropy In a school for the mountain girls. There aro enough mountain people In Georgia to bo absorbed Into the Industrial llfo of this commonwealth and cared for by Its educators and philanthropists beforo wo go out In eager search after foreign peoples with whom we havo nothing lu common end who havo no claim upon our duty or our consciences. Crudely and hurriedly The Georgian flings out this hint of splendid possibility to Individual or to general philanthropy. If any great mnn whom the Almighty has prospered wit!h large means, or It any great soul with splendid energies wishes to consecrate money or energy, to a work worthy of the beat la men, let him visit Haddock Inn at Toccoa Falls and confer with Mr. E. P. Simpson, Its golden boartod owner and proprietor. And The Georgian pledgee here and now Its whole hearted help to any Indlrldual, rich or poor, who will give himself to this movement for the mountain girls of Georgia. SOME TENNESSEE-TEXAS DEMOORAOT. If any ono In Tenneisee Is antitied to speak tor the old routine Democracy, somotlmes called orthodox. It Is Edward \V. Carmack, ex-sen ator, statesman, patriot and gallant gentleman always Hero Is Senator Carmack's statement of Democratic principles as given to Harper’s Weekly: A strict—or let us rather say an honest and faithful—con struction of tho constitution, which, being Interpreted, Is, “The support of our state governments In all their rights, as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns and the Burest bulwark against anti-republican tendencies. Tho preservation of the general government In Its whole constitutional vigor, as tho sheet-anchor of our peace at home and our Bufety nbrond. To resist with the utmost energy every unconstitutional ex tension of Federal jiower as against the states, and of the ex ecutive power os against other departments of the government In our foreign policy to keep woll within the "shadow of our rock-safety," the counsels of Washington and the maxims of Jef ferson. To cast out tho devil of militarism from the councils of the nation and the hearts of the people, and to put aside all dreams of conquest and colonial empire. To make legitimate use of all the powers of the Federal gov ernment to suppress monopoly, but so as not to give countenance and support to the deadliest monopoly of all—the monopoly of power In the government at Washington. Rigidly to regulate and restrain the great railroad corpora tions. which, being natural monopolies, have a power of oppres sion too great to leave unchecked—but disclaiming any sympa thy for the policy of government ownership of the railways. To Institute a wise economy In public expenditures. Resolutely to set about a reformation of the tariff with the ultimate purpose to make revenue the only object of taxation. Such. It seems to me, should be the policy of the Democratic party, and auch should be the Issues of the next campaign. The bourbon Post of Houston goes into such ecstaclee over these par agraphs that It is reasonable to assume that they fairly represent the political creeds of The Post and of The Post's political idol, Charles A. Culberson. Well, they are sound principles, as might have been expected rrom the author and from the Indorser. The Georgian feels no hesitation lu adding Its own Indorsement, along with the renewed aasurance of its high and well matured admiration tor Carmack, Culberson and Editor Johnson. But The Georgian baa somehow gotten Into the way of being lest concerned about abstract principlca than for present pressing perils and necessities that concern the people. Abstract principles are too apj these days to drift into platitude*, and In the case of the people versus plutocracy the essential need Is ac tion, direct, definite and decisive. The name doesn't matter much after all. What the people want Is results. BELIEVES IT IS RIGHT AND WILL HELP ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga., July 4, 107. Mr. F. L. Seely, Publisher Georgian. Dear Sir: I am in favor of prohibition covering the entire state of Georgia, first because I believe it is right, and second, because I cannot see how business could be made to suffer by reason of the fact that people could not buy whisky. Whisky certainly does not increase values or earning capacity, and does not promote happiness or prosperity. I believe it is a fact that for every man and for every dollar that would leave Atlanta on account of prohibition, vyo men and $2 would come back. In other words, there are a lot of good people who would like-to live in Atlanta and other large cities but for the danger to which their children are exposed. I hope The Georgian will be leading in the fight for the women and children of this state. Yours truly, GEO. E. KING, President King Hardware Co. Ths Ghsst of Lechrain Castle Jl Thrilling Novel of Love, Intrigue, Tragedy and the Mystery o a Famous Diamond By MRS. C. N. WILLIAMSON, Author of “Tho Lightning Conductor, Eto., Etc. CHAPTER XL—Concluded. Mra. Warden waa there, and as she had heard of the accident, Elspeth had to tell her all about It. before she could bopo to obtain any satisfaction on an other subject. Indeed, the oiu hut-ra- keeper flattered herself that Mias Dean must have come to her room for the express purpose of giving her the de tail*. Elspeth gathered this from Mrs. Warden's naive thanks, and It was not worth while to hurt her feelings by disabusing her of the Impression. Ac cordingly- the girl did not contradict her. but merely said, "By the by, I Just met In the hall a middle-aged man with a short, grlxaled beard, wonder fully brilliant dark eyes, and features rather like Captain Oxford'a. I never mot him before, and I wonder If be can be stopping at the hotel. Can you tell from my description of him?" Mrs. Warden looked puzzled and shook her head. “Indeed. I can’t. Miss,” said she. "There are plenty of gentle men with short, grtixled beards, but I don't remember anyone with particu larly brilliant eye*.’’ "You would remember If you had seen his,” broke in Elspeth. '"Perhaps I should, Mlsa," said Mrs. Wordon. "But as for his looking like Captain Oxford, I don't think 1'vo ever yet seen that young gentleman, though l*ve heard plenty about him from one person or another." "Surely you must have seen him, Elspeth persisted. "He's extremely good looking." "Then I'm aure I haven't. I don't call any of the young gentlemen In the Castle at present extremely good look ing, though some of them are well enough In their way. But you aeo Cap tain Oxford arrived only a day or two before you did, Mias, and almost ever since he came he’s kept In hie room, or maybe been In Mr. Kenrith's suite, ex cept When Mr. Kenrlth had him out In **ie motor car. I've never happened to Be anywhere about when he was on view, as you might say. and I don’t know that I’ve had any particular curi osity, though tho gossip of the serv ants' hall Is that he’s dead In love with that beautiful young lady, the counteaa of Lombart'a daughter." "Well, I'm afraid you can't toll me anything about this mysterious new comer then," said Elspeth. disappointed, "for the only way In which I can de scribe him accurately Is by saying that be look* something as Captain Oxford may look, 25 or SO years from now.” She rose, and Mrs. Warden, who fain would have kept her for a pleasant lit tle gossip, could not persuade her to %la evening the tower room seemed gloomy, as It had never seemed before, even during the ghastly experience* which had ao severely tried Elapeth's nerves. It would be hers but for a fort night longer. She must go, and she did not know where. After all her strug gles, all her hopes, the disappointment waa too bitter. How she had admired this room a week ago. and how proud she had been of It! How she had enjoyed the thought of all the nice booke whose glided covers winked at her from be hind glass doors. How her courage had rlaen to the task of finding a solution for all the mysteries unassisted by any one. Now she would go away and never know the explanation. Worat of all. what would Mr. Kenrlth think when he heard, perhape from Mr. McGowan, that she had behaved ao foolishly that she had been aaked to resign? She had not dared let herself dwell upon this thought before, but now It overwhelmed her. and the long re strained torrent of her tear* burst forth. She could eat no dinner, nor could the sleep that night, though she was undisturbed by any influence out side her own mind. Her head ached when she rose In the morning, and she ws* glad to hear the knock which told her that the servant had arrived with tea and breakfast. She was not hungry, but the tea would do her good, she thought. The man came In and placed the tray on the table, but having don* so. he lingered. "There's been a terrible thing happened In the night, miss.” said he, with that unctuous enjoyment of the sensational so oftsn aoen among per sons of his class. "Lady Ardclllfe and Countess Radepolskol have both been robbed of all their Jewels.” CHAPTER XII. Was It a Plot? Had Elspeth herself been In the plot and learned thus suddenly of Its discov ery she could hardly have been more startled than she was by th* news of the robbery. Yesterday, Mr. Kenrlth hod loet hit Jewels In the most mysterious circum stances; and now Lady Ardclllfe and Counteea Radepolskol had been robbed. It was at least a strange coincidence that these events hod followed quickly one upon the other. Elspeth felt as If she were groping In the dark for a master key which could open all doors tnd lead her at length Into the hidden placo where the secret of these mysteries lay. It was as If the caught a glimpse of that key. shining through the twilight, and then. Just as the put out her hand, It van- tshed again. • The servant could embroider bis story with very fsw details. He knew only that the robbery had not been discovered until morning. The maid of the countess and the maid of Lady Ardclllfe had given the alarm, and it was said that the two ladles must have been chloroformed, as the atmosphere of their rooms was still heavy with tho drug. When Elspeth discovered that the man had little real Information, she did not encourage him to stay and gos sip, but hurried through her breakfast, and went out to team what the could for herself. She was scarcely surprised to seo Lady Ardellffo and the countess both In the great hall, talking earnestly to Mr. McGowan. No one else hod ap peared aa yet, for It wa* very early, and there had scarcely been time for tho exciting news of the robbery to spread through tho hotel. Elspeth had to pass Hear the group, on her way to the manager's room, and the three were to deeply absorbed In their conversation that they neither heard nor saw the young typist. She had no Intention of eavesdropping, but some words uttered by Mr. McGowan reached her eara, and startltd her ao much that It waa all she could do to suppress a cry of distress. "I do beg that you will help me to avoid a scandal," ths manager was say. Ing. "If you publicly accuse Lady Hilary"— He lowered his voice, and Elspeth beard no more; but It was enough. A J lance at the countess' hard, handsoms ace showed her that It would taka persuasions more powerful than Mr. McGowan's to Induce her to relinquish so choice a revenge. Both women hated Lady Hilary Vane, and though It was Impossible—Elspeth told herself—that she could be guilty, circumstantial evi dence must somehow point to her as the thief, or they would not dare threaten to accuse her. Elspeth grew cold with fear at the sight of the pitfall prepared for her friend by these two Jealous women. Even If Lady Hilary could prove her Innocence, she would be made to euf- fer, and Elspeth could not bear that It ahould be so. How could ah* save the poor child? she asked herielf. Then, suddenly, she thought of Trowbridge and his passion for Lady Hilary Vane. From It had sprung the malice of those who would ruin the girl; but through It she might yet be rescued. There was not a second to spare. If Mr. Trowbridge were to be summoned to this task; and without an Instant’s hesitation Elspeth sped through corri dor after corridor on her way to his sitting room. She had not bad time to knock at the door, when It opened and he came out. "Miss Dean!" he ex claimed In aurpriae at the sight of her flushed face. "I’ve come to ask you to save Lady Hilary,’ she burst out abruptly. •'Save Lady Hilary?" No one who saw him then could have doubted the sincerity of hit love. "From Lady ArdclIITe and the count, as.” Elspeth went on, breathlessly. All their Jewels have been stolen In Iho night. For some reason or other they suspect I.ady Hilary and are go ing to accuse her as a thief. They hate her, you know. They are downstairs In the great hall now, talking to Mr. McGowan, who Is trying to dissuade them; but I know he can not. You, perhaps, may. I think It's the only hope. Oh, do make haate. If Lady Hilary should come down, os she gen erally does about this time, there will be a horrible scene, unless you prevent It"— The look on his face frightened Els peth. "I will prevent It," he eald. "Go to her. Keep her In her room If you can. Make any excuse. Give me a little time, that'e all I ask.” Then he was gone, and Elspeth did not stop to look after him. She flew oft In the opposite direction, which was that of Imdy Hilary's room, but she had not gone far when ehe saw the girl approaching with her mother. Elspeth paused, bewildered. What could she do now? After the misera ble ecene yesterday, when Lady Lant- FROM WHITE RIBBON LEADER Mr. F. L.

Yet somehow the object must be accomplished. Lady Lambart saw htr from afar ott. Elspeth could see th# handsome face freexe Into haughtiness. Though she could not hear the words, she knew that Lady Lambart was forbid ding her daughter to speak In passing, and It did flash through Elspeth's head that, df she were revengeful, she could satisfy all cravings by letting the two go on to their fate. But at this mo- msnt she would not only have sacri ficed a thousand revenges, but her hopes for hef own future happiness, to save Hilary Vane, and careless of con sequences to herself, she etepped for ward, saying: “Don't go downstalra Just yet, I beg. Lady Hilary. I can t tell you why. but—but If you'll wait —If you'll breakfast In your room, I hope you may eave yourself and— Lady Lambart—a very dleagreeable ex perience." Elspeth expected an Insulting answer from Lady Lambart, but, to her sur prise, none came. Mother and daugh ter stopped abruptly, the girl turning pale, the woman flushing scarlet un der her rouge and powder. "Oh. mother," exclaimed Hilary. 'It has come." • Instantly Elspeth guessed the thought In their minds. She remembered the words she had overheard yesterday, when Lady Lambart had said to her daughter that "tomorrow a summons would be served." They thought now that this dreaded thing hnd happened, and that. If they obeyed the warning she had given, they might somehow hide from disaster. Elspeth decided that, for Lady Hilary’s sake, the best thing she could do would be to let the Impression remain undisturbed for tho present. "I told you what would happen, but I didn’t know It would come quite so soon," half whispered Lady Lambart. "Now, will you be sensible and save us both In the only way you can7 It Isn't too late yet." "I must—I see now that I must,” said Lady Hilary. "If I could see him, I would say"— _ "You enn’t see him now. You must write a note, and quickly,” replied Lady Lambart, In the same low tone she had used before.
