WILL THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY DEAL
JUSTLY WITH OUR COMMON SCHOOLS?
(Editorial By R. C. J. Dickens, Editor tn the Vldalln Advance.)
Will the general assembly of Georgia
do Its duty to the common schools In
the appropriation for educational 'pur«
poses at lie present seeelonT Thle le
an Important question to the people
away out here In the country. But wo
are not asleep on the question of edu
cation. The great appeals for large
appropriations for tho state's higher
educational Institutions lead the ileople
to ask the commtttoe on appropriations!
to seriously consider some things.
It Is of the utmost Importance that]
the staff care for her common schools.
Never tn the history of the South was
such Interest being manifested In the
common schools os for the last few
years. The people are aroused on the
subject and Georgia must not lag be
hind other atatea In amply providing
for her common schools. When you
consider that the people In rural dis
tricts ore taxing themselves as never
before to maintain schools, you must
concede that the state should stand by
them at nil hasards. Then think, gen
tlemen, of tho increase of children and
you caa not afford to allow approprla-
tlons to decrease.
Loral taxation has proven n prac
tical and successful experiment for tho
common schools, but It does not solve
the problem because many counties
do not vote It. and even when they do,
It does not piovtde for the rural schooln
In many places In keeping with their
need. Therefore, direct provision for
these schools by the legislature Is the
only hope for them. The legislature
has no more serious problem to con
front It than the appropriations for
the common schools. This Idltor be
lieves ni higher education by the state,
but we have come to think seriously
bow the higher Institutions are pro
vided for at the unjust expense of the
common schools. For Instance, to es
tablish the district agricultural colleges
all the fees from oil and fertilisers were
taken from the common school fund
and given to these schools. And now
they propose to raise the lax on fer
tilisers. Now, gentlemen, If you do
thut you must give the common schools
at least t# of the 25 per cent fee,
Remember this, please. i .
And now the common schools are to
lose 3212,000 of tax from whisky. This
they lirse without complaint. Will the
legislature take care of tho common
schools?

what he wanted to do In his campaign
speeches, and he hna aucceeded In get
ting what the railroads call "drastic
legislation.''
How shrewd some of this Is may be
gathered from the fact that tho ratl-
vraya asked for a restraining order
against these acts, but overlooked that
rtne Under Whose provisions thekeeft-
tary, of state of Alabama acted Frida;
Governor “Insulted."
Governor Comer never loees en op
portunity to talk against the railroads,
and It wna that, primarily, that caused
him to be "Insulted," os he termed It,
by the Alabama Press Association
when the organisation met In Mont
gomery last month. I do not believe
the true story of the affair has been
printed. 1 do not mean that any news
paper kept the truth out o''
but that the whole stogy
orally known. I was there during the
proceedings.
Just before the aseoclatlon adjourned
on the morning of the first day of the
convention EdTtor Williams, of Talla
dega. Ala., otrersd a resolution that
“the privilege of ths floor" be extended
to Governor Comer. That was done,
and Mr. Williams and Jacob Pepper-
man. secretary of the association, no
tified the governor.
Governor Comer reached the Com
mercial Club, where the association
was holding Its meetings.^ about 3
o'clock. It waa expected that a meet
ing would be held at that time, but
only a few of the members appeared,
and before Oovemur Comer arrived It
had been decided to meet that night
nnd transact the business scheduled for
the afternoon. Governor Comer come
In, however, and was Introduced. Ho
said he was glad to meet tho editors,
although they had not supported him
during hie campaign. In three minutes
he waa flaying them for falling to sup-'
port his admfnistratlon.
Governor Comer Talks.
President Nlel Interrupted the gov
ernor. ,
"If you are going to moke a speech,
governor, wouldn't It bs better to talk
to us when w« were tn session? It
I4n't fair to visit the alna of the as
sociation on the few of ug here."
Governor Coiner admitted' that, but
kept on talking until Interrupted again
with the same suggestion. Thfcn he'
turned to President Nlel.
"If you are not 'Joking, and really
want me to speuk to the association
tonight, I will do so,” said ho.
Mr. Nlel said, he thought that If a
speech was to be made ft should be
delivered before the association. Gov.
ernor Comer looked pleased and said:
"Then I will bo here at 8 o’clock
tonight."
He was. His first sentence crltisUed
the annual report of President NteL
The sentences that followed critlslxed
the work of nearly every editor in the
state. He said that the Ignorance of
most of them was umaxtng, because
they were fighting bills that he fnVored
and he knew, he wna right.
Hot Resolution.
When the governor eat down, Editor
Greer got up. He wae one of the few
men In the hall during the' afternoon.
He was confident, he said later, that
the governor would talk at night the
same way ho had early in the even
ing, and therefore he had prepared the
rt solution which made, Governor Co
mer writhe, ond turn from pale to pur
ple.
Mr. Greer said after the meeting that
had Governor Comer not Insulted the
press association In his speech tha
resolution never would have been pre
sented. And today Mr. Greer cannot
see how he or the aseoclatlon Insulted
the governor with those same resolu
tion* Neither can anybody else who
wasn't there. It was Mr. Greer's In
tonation that hurt.
Those resolutions were toet in thn
mass of substitutes that followed litem.
The records of the Alabama Preag As
sociation fall to show they ever wen-
presented. Tho minutes say that Gov
ernor Comer addressed the members
and that he was thanked In a resolu
tion.
Just before leaving the hall, Govern
or Comer said that he had been In
sulted ns he nover had been before tn
his life. He said the Press Association
hod treated hint us he would not treat
a dog. The meeting waa mute under
this -arraignment, and there waa no
sound aa tha governor left the room.

Nippon Yoke
Now on Korea
Seoul, Aug. I.—The Japanese have
the city In good control today. Ma
chine guns and rifle discipline has
proved too much for tlje scattered Ko
rean army which at all stages was
weak and unable to cope with modern
lighting methods. The soldiers of the
Korean army who, after attacking the
Japanese troops, fled, are now fugitives.
The Japanese authorities arc now
proceeding on the assumption that If
the leaders of the rebellious Koreans
nhe Imprisoned, their followers will be.
come meek and submissive. Officials
In tho palace who sympathised with
the outbreak are banished.
The emperor has appealed to Mar
quis Ito to prevent further outbreaks
at the capital. A number of Korean
officers took their own lives after sub
mitting to the humiliation of being
stripped of their regimental Insignia.

A New Baby.
A New Baby! What magio, what mystery, what charm these words have
“ for us. Yet, how infinitely more they mean to the mother. A new life*
short, to be sure, but full of possibilities. Some one must be patient, hopeful,
watohftil, proud and never discouraged. That “some one” is the mother. She
has heard her baby’s first cry, and whether it be her first or tenth, the feeling
is the same. Her feeble arms are out-stretched; those arms that will-never
desert it as long as th6 mother shall live. And that hand which supports the
head of the new-born babe, the mother’s hand, supports the civilization of the world,
Is it any wonder, we ask you; mothers, that with all these responsibilities
resting upon your all too weak shoulders, we urge upon you the necessity of
selecting .the babe’s medicine with utmost care; the necessity of protecting your
babe from worthless, unknown and narcotic drags as you would protect it from
the fire?
