MARIETTA-ST, PAVING RECOMMENDED.
Merchant* and property ownera on MarieUa.at. are to be congratulated
upon the action of the finance committee of tho city council on Wedne*day
laxt In recommending lhat 113,000 be appropriated for paving thl* high
way between Tabernacle place and North-av*. /
For aome time the feasibility of diverting thl*.turn Into other chan
nel* wax discussed.
But the urgent charqcter of the claims of Marietta-xt. to Just recog
nition at the hand* of the city authorities eventually tipped the scale*.
It In now Incumbent upon the city council to act favorably and promptly
• upon the recommendation of the tlnance committee and to supply the requi
site funds for putting the contemplated Improvements Into effect.
Not only la this .expenditure Justlfled by the volume of buxines* which
Is transacted along thl* Important thoroughfare, but Atlanta’s word has
been given to the people of Marletta-nt. and promises made In honor should
be faithfully kept.
WAR PANICS AND MERCENARY CONSPIRATORS.
Preoldent Nicholas Murray Butler, the executive' head «f Columbia
university, believes that back of the frequent war pqnlr* which period
ically drive the Rations Into vaat expenditures for battleships, there are
conspirator* at work who are plotting against the world’* 'peace In order
to tvap revenues for themselves.
Such was the rather startling view which this distinguished educator
advanced several days aco In hli address before the arbitration conference
at Lake Mohonk. Said he:
"My Impression Is that somebody makes something by reason of the
huge expenditures In preparation for war. Have you ever noticed that
about the time the appropriation* for military purposes are under consid
eration In the congress, In the house of commons. In the chamber of dep
uties, or In the relchntag, or Just before such a time, hostilities are always
on the point of breaking out In two or three parts of th* world at once?
Just at these times war prophets begin to see visions and to dream, and the
poor, gullible people rush off to their cyclone cellars and shout timorously
to thelf representatives to vote at once and a* much as possible In order
that the great ships and guns and forts may be built to protect them.”
Dr. Butler la not given to hysterical outbursts. He seldom speaks
wlthout'bestowlng due thought upon what he says. Moreover, he la con
stantly In elbow-touch with men of practical affairs at the great commercial
and Industrial life center of the nation.
For reasons like these he ran not bo laughed out of court.
And while It Is best to adopt every safeguard of prudence when it
coma* to protecting American Interests, still It is well to ponder seriously
the fMrs' which this eminent scholar seems to entertain, especially In view
of the statement made by Senator Clay several days ago . that with the
purchase money of one battleship the whole state of Georgia could be
financed and supported for twelve months.
ETHICS OF THE CUSTOM HOUSE: A MORAL
Rx-Gnvcrnor Frank IV. Rollins, of New Hampshire, Is a Republican. He
advocates the policy of protection and supports the high tariff legislation
which levies duties and Imposts upon articles brought Into this country
from abroad. Doubtless the theory upon which he bases his fidelity to
this principle of tnxnttnn is thnt while It Incidentally helps the manufac
turer It also exalts and dignifies labor; and when he ran for governor some
twelve years ago he probably stressed the argument* with tremendous ef
fect.
Rut the purpose of this little story Is not to question the soundness of
his views upon this Issue, As to the best methods of raising revenues for
purposes of government political economists are divided. He may be right
or he may be wrong. *
11 Is not In the acalc of politics that we seek to weigh him at this time,
but In the scale of ethics.
Several day* sgo the ex-gnvemor arrived In the port of New York on
one of the great ocean steamers. .Wltl) certain members of his family he
hsd loured the continent of Europe, visiting the famous cathedrals and
galleries of art. He had not returned empty-handed. Being a man of
means nnd a banker of note, he had purchased numerous handsome sou
venir of the various countries In which he had sojourned: and on shipboard
there were some doxen or more trunks filled with the trophies of his most
successful trip.
But wait—
When the customs house officer came on deck to receive the declarations
of passengers In regard to article* which wero subject to tax, the ex-gov-,
ernor genially reported that he brought nothing back which was worthy to
mention upon the government's printed slip*.
But the collector of custom* belonged to the school of doubting Thom
as. At any rate, hi* suspicion* were aroused. Probably he had seen tho
trunk,, which had suggested to his mind some prlma donna's outfit. But
wishing to give the governor one more chance to right himself, he asked
him at length If his declaration was final. He replied rather vaguely that
he thought so. But In order to be perfectly certain upon this point, he
went In search of hla wife—so the dispatches state—from which Intervlotv
he emerged' with the Joyful discovery that some-few little trinkets had been
nverl-viked, He thereupon proceeded to-enumerate several'Items which
were really of no consequence—hut he Wished to Be exact,'
However, tho item representative of the law was still unsatisfied.
The result was that several moments later, nn quitting the crowd, which
thronged the docks, ho was put under arrest. He promptly gave bond to
appear before the magistrate at the proscribed hour. But the humiliation In
the meantime had proved to be too great for his wife, who was utterly pros,
trsted by the shock. It was an altogether different home-coming from tha
one which had beckoned to them while bounding upon the ocean billows.
Aa the result of the official probe. It was found that the ex-govemor
hsd brought Into this country from Bumpe merchandise valued conserva
tively at li.7JA.li; nnd plendlng guilty to the charge which In common^
parlance Is denominated "•mugdlng." he was fined JJ.noo for evading the
law. and moreover was required to pay In addition the rightful tax upon
his purchases.
The ex-governor’a counsel pleaded. It I* said, the previous good char-
nrter of his client and argued In extenuation that ’’he made the serious
mistake of not going Into the matter systematically when queittnned."
Rut the effect of this prayer was nullified by the district attorney, who
Iqld solemn emphasis upon the faet thnt thero were 147 articles of value
among the ex-governor’s European mementoes which had been concealed
from the authorities.
Thereupon the Judge found hlmsejf confronted with the necessity of
Imposing the line, and he nefdod that he might also have sent the self-con
fessed offender to Jail, but he did not do so because It might seem that he
had been unduly severe In view of the prominence of the defendant.
Kx-Oovernor Rollins may live to b* ..much older. But he needs nn
oracle of Delphi to tell him that his political career hue been run. Thero
nra aome little Incidents which the public never forgets; and memory of
t)tls day's buslnesa will follow him. Nor should It bn otherwise. When men
IB high positions do wrong, the example which they set Is sure to provo
ruinous unless awlft nnd condign punishment follows.
Moreover, If every high tariff adviH-nte sought to avoid the Imposition
of Just taxes ns did this chamj.lnn of protection, the question naturally
arises—
To whnt extent would thl* practice Inure to the benefit of labor?
W« arc sorry for ex-Govemor Rollins. Doubtless he It all the more
sensitive In his disgrace because of tile honor* which have come to him
In tlm«* past. Rut there was absolutely no excuse for wrhat he did. His
wealth should have put him beyond temptation. He w'as an enlightened
Republican; and If he was not deterred by his loyalty to protection, he
should have been restrained by hi* awe of Mount Sinai.

Would Extend Course of School
Teachers Over Two Sum
mers Instead of One as
Is Now the Rule.
At the regular monthly meeting of
the school board Thunday afternoon
Superintendent William M. Slaton rec
ommended that the normal course,
which I* now one year, be extended to
two year*. The board requested Mr.
Slaton to work out the detail* and
submit them to the teachers’ commit
tee.
The normal course Is open to grad
uates of the Girls High school and In
stitutions of similar standing. It Is a
training school for teachers and an
extension to two year* probably will be
strongly opposed by the teachers.
The following resignations were ac
cepted: Dr. Stewart R. Robert*, med
ical Inspector; Miss Julia Middleton,
Miss Mable Parks. Miss Claire Guerard,
Mlse Mary Belk. Miss Aggie Dean,
Mis* Lillian Lalhrop. Leave of ab
sence was granted to the following:
Miss Cools Hackett, from Mayy l until
June 3; Miss Mabel Mitchell, until
January 1. 1911; Miss Mary McGuire,
until January 1, 1911; Miss Claudl^
Mansfield, for one year, and Mlaa An
nle Hornaday, for one year.

the board, made a final report on

If not on# drop shall reach our fevered
lips!
Ah. darling, if you love me—tell me
so!
Our lips will soon toe closed by angel
hAhde.
For after all. there Is not far to go.
And life will end In silence, hard and
cold.
So, darling. If you rove me—tell me
so!
