The evidence, however, which was based chiefly on the report of divers, was too unsubstantial to warrant the commission in fixing the responsibility, nnd in their re port they declined to do so. The frailty of the evidence can be realized when it is considered how incomplete was the opportu nity the divers had for accurate observation aipid a network of beams and metals twisted in every direction and enveloped in silt and muddy water. Much doubt has always been felt as to the correctness of the commis sion's finding that the explosion was due to external causes. From so much of the ship as lias now been disclosed, it seems very uncertain, indeed, whether it can be refloated. The metal has undergone a surprising de gree of decomposition, and will not be likely to withstand any strain put upon it. , Nevertheless, the .revelations of the wreck, as they are to be made from time to time, will be watch ed with interest the world over.

Submerged for thirteen years in the water and mud of Ilpvana harbor, the wreck of the United States battleship Maine is being gradually disclosed to view as the water reeedca from it. A giant cofferdam has been placed entirely nround the ill- fated ship, and the water is now being pumped out. Soon the tangle of twia’ted, rusting metal will tell what it can of the origin of the exploaion which was in deed heard round the world. The' work of raising the wreck ed battleship is being done by the United States government, with the end in view of repair ing and floating it and then pre serving it as a relic of the Span. ish-American war. Nothing else is so centrally connected with that conflict as the battleship Maine, for had it not been wrecked in Havana harbor the war might never have been. There will, however, be two other results to eome from rais ing the wreck—the question of whether the explosion was of in side or outside origin will be de termined beyond all doubt, nnd the harbor will be cleared of an obstruction that is a menace to shipping. If the explosion is shown to have been from the inside, it will absolve the Spanish government forever of the suspicion of hav ing been a party to the cowardly destruction of 26fi lives. If. on the contrary, it is shown thnt the explosion was from a mine on the outeide of the ship, the American people will feel easier in their consciences for having waged the War. Immediately after the explo aion, on February 15, 1898, the United States government sent a commission to investigate the wreck and the cause of the ex plosion. More than two months was consumed in the investiga- A Chanticleer Chorus. A farf, particularly if it in duces exercise in the open air, is necessary for the well being of most city dwellers.

Its operations have already attained the proportions "“of a vast in dustry. So completely lias it possessed the city of Buffalo, N.

They demand, thereforo, that's-all A statesman, wise and hoary, gets up some wondrous scheme to help our land to glory, and make life seem a dream.

But now we break our tether when something greets our eyes; we damn it all to gether, or laud it to the skies. A treaty with the German, a work by Dr. Cook, a policy or sermon, a ball team or a book, we either praise it fully, or say that it is junk; one side de clares it bully, the other says it’s punk. I’d like to meet a fellow who’d take the middle view, and wave his umbgrellow, and talk an hour or two, and give a demonstration of sense of long ago—the old-time rabderation that sized up con and pro.

The place Is too large to allow any one person to be of con sequence In It. "In big stores, big offices and big factories a young man becomes one cog on the big business wheel, and knows no more about the general prin ciple of the machinery which runs the plant than the cog knowg of the reat of an engine. "It Is the work of that particular cog to catch Its’corresponding cog on the other wheel once at each revolution, and that Is all It knows—all that Is ex pected or desired of It.

But the poultry culturists— some 10,000 strong—are not so easjly to he made to part with their cherished occupation. Rep- reaented 'by tho Buffalo Poultry club, they propose to the city council to remove during the non- breeding season, from Juno to January, all the rooaters whose rousing matin aonga are the cnusc of the controveray to a farm outside the city, where they are to be ‘‘hoarded’’ by a fund' con tributed by their owners. More over, the fanciers propose that a system of inspection of the, poul try yards he established, that the health of the city may not be harmed, nnd thnt wholesome eggs and fowls may be assured to con sumers. Here’s wishing them success in their fight with the sluggards who find no niusio in a rooster's crow.

He meets salesmen, bankers, customers of the store and hundreds of all sorts of people, and makes an extensive acquaintance which Is of great financial value to him In hie future career, no matter what that may be, for a man’s acquaintances are a part of his assets, and where a lad has to win hie own way In the world there Is nothing so helpful. "Again, he la under the personal eye of hla employer. In the big office he tq under the eye of the department manager, who, In turn, reports him on a eheet to the general manager, and he, In turn, to the proprietor; and by the time he reaches the head he has become a nonentity, or, rather, an Item of expense, rather than a human being.

Testimony before the congressional investigation of the steel trust shows that the trust charged exorbitant rates for hauling ore on Its railroads In order that It might KJII out competitors.

My husband has a very even disposi tion.” "Mine, -oo—he's always cranky." CAN SUCH THINGS BE IN THE HOME OF THE BRAVE AND THE LAND OF THE FREE? BY I. S. JONAS. AMERICAN imagination instinctively singles out RUSSIA as the GOVERNMENT that represents the direct type of TYRAN NY and INJUSTICE. - The bloody glamour of ostentatious massacre and the pusil lanimous usage of exiling innocent “suspects’’ to inhuman 81 BERIAN PRISONS, upon equivocal evidence, combine to stamp the brows of successive CZARS with the word "MONSTER.’ As a people, we have the leisure, the inclination and the ca pacity to revile the red horrors of a savage foreign power, while our own loudly-vaunted NATIONAL and LOCAL STANDARDS OF RIGHT are'being officially assaulted without popular pro test or rebuke. Forging a check for SEVEN DOLLARS was considered a crime black enough to condemn ROSCOE STANSBURY, a del icate youth scarcely out of his teens, to FOUR YEARS’ atrocious CONVICT LIFE, in the companionship of the most depraved of fenders. And when beaten and blinded by a burning June sun, and physically exhausted by the cruel hardness of unaccustomed la bor, with 8n IRON SHACKLE weighting his leg, he dizzily dash es across an open field, in the direction of a fast-moving train, his foolish and. useless spurt for freedom is said by the LAW to merit the load of buckshot from the guard's gun that ripped through his worn, boyish body and hurried his tortured soul to its GOD, The awful sentence imposed upon ROSbOE STANSBURY, no less than his shocking death, terrifies nature and makes us loa'the barbarous “JUSTICE." But don’t grow excited—remain calm and undisturbed. Re serve your paroxysms of rage for the REAL story we wish to tell, It concerns tho SYSTEM that perpetuates JUSTICE OF THE PEACE COURTS IN THE CITY OF ATLANTA. During recent days there has been some talk about the evils of the ALDERMANIO FORM OF GOVERNMENT, and the LOAN SHARK has come in for hi$ share of public scorn and con tempt. However, they are mild pustules compared with the hideous JUSTICE COURT cancer.. We can write well on the subject BECAUSE OUR PURPOSE IS TO AROUSE INTEREST IN A HUMAN DUTY. While no man is secure against tho snatching and strategic cunning of tho JUSTICE COURT, it is peculiarly THE POOR MAN’S PLAGUE. By means of frank deceit and clear foul play LEGAL DE VICES are easily set in motion that cheat and trick the average citizen out of his time, his money, his fight and his liberty.' The SYSTEM gives broad, loose scope to craft, duplicity and knavery. It is not a deep game. The manoeuvres and dodges' are candidly vulpine. < In the first place, genuine cases carried to JUSTICE COURTS frequently involve fine, intricate questions of law, calling for a trained legal mind to-construe. This being true, isn’t it absurd and ridiculous that the most illiterate and ignorant man—ONE WHO KNOWS ABSO LUTELY NOTHING ABOUT LAW—is eligible to hold the po- •if -p TTTonrr/ir* nv nrAnro sition of JUSTICE OF THE PEACE? His and his bailiffs’ income is dependent upon “COSTS” collected. The more trials, the more revenues. Hence there is an aggressive race for “business.” Competition grows intense. JUSTICES OF THE PEACE don’t mince matters. Some of them bluntly and openly bid for patronage. “JUDGMENTS” are the inducements they offer their regular clients. For example: tyr. Smith operates an installment furniture store. He hns many petty debtors. A large proportion of them become delinquents. The JUSTICE OF THE PEAOE is no muff when his own interests are coneerned. He fully realizes that if Smith doesn’t receive the JUDGMENTS he asks for, his large volume V>f business will be transferred elsewhere. There fore, often without bothering to listen to the testimony, Smith’s claims are granted. The JUSTICE is a tactician and clinches all the trade he can. The debtor is usually without means or influence, and the brand of “JUSTICE” accorded him would make a beardless Indian blush. Did you ever witness one of those artful sidewalk auc tion sales held beneath the shadow of the COURT HOUSE? Thev are wretched, sad-colored, damnifying scenes. Villainous MAMMON in its vilest and meanest aspect assumes complete control. The whole proceeding is base, detestable and abomi nable. Narrow, sordid eyes gleam with sinister cupidity as they survey the puddles of household things that have been wrested from the hovels of the poor and friendless. The brutal crowd is urged with sodden monotony to buy a baby’s picture, a father’s rude crayon, a slatternly bed. the family album, chairs, tables', meager, assortments of glass and crockery, time-worn clocks, rickety cribs and defective perambulators, bedraggled curtains, faded rugs and unsafe tubs. Nothing is too small, nothing too sacred to escape the avarice of the pitiless leeches. When such tools for oppression are placed into the hands of dishonest men FREE GOVERNMENT is degraded and pol luted. It may be turned nnd twisted in a hundred different crooked ways to rob the helpless and enrich the powerful. Every reputable lawyer in ATLANTA demands that JUS TICE OF THE PEAOE COURTS he abolished. Our GRAND JURIES have strongly sanctioned their annihilation. Being in struments of ravage and rapine, causing havoc and misery, they should be legislated to their grave. Public sentiment must awaken with outraged wrath and never rest until these nibbling mire of the law have been ex terminated. The effort has been mode before. This time it shall be sustained until the SYSTEM that permits the strong to torment the weak is crushed. Every civic, every sociologic, every philanthropic, every re ligious, every professional, every commercial, .every, whist, and every jabor organization in ATLANTA should combine with every individual to break the chains against which so many men, women and children have beaten with despair during all the years of their diminishing destiny. Some have died of grief Bnd shame and want. Now, let's rescue the living victims of the infernal enterprise. Fan you read this appeal without giving the personal help we invoke! Lift up your voice against a SYSTEM that is a scourge and a crime. Don’t call this a CHRISTIAN COMMU NITY until the blot has been wiped out. We are hopeful. There is so much more tenderness, si touch more conscientiousness than there used to be. Man was never before so devoted to the great cause of human regenera tion. The RACE, the good of the RACE, the progress of the RACE, the amelioration of society, the elevation of the world— these are the grand, the beautiful ends proclaimed from every qnarter inspired by the uohlest of motives. /:
