| Disgraceful Delay in the
i .
| Brandeis Case
i If Brandeis Were a 1'0!‘[)0:'8“01\ Servant He Would Be Sitting
on the Supreme Court Bench NOW,
Senators that delay the confirmation of Brandeis as Supreme
Court judge advertise themselves as useful corporation servants.
If Brandeis were a corporation tool, promoted to the Bench from
a corporation law office, HE WOULD BE SITTING ON THE
SUPREME COURT BENCH OF THE UNITED STATES TO
DAY.
If he had been such a man as Elihu Root, graduating from
the service of ‘‘Bill’’ Tweed to that of bigger thieves, he would
have been confirmed instantly.
But because Brandeis chooses to serve the people, instead of
the corporations, because he is a MAN, a dignified AMERICAN,
and not the miserable tool of corporations willing to share the
plunder of any big bandit, he must undergo the close scrutiny,
and face the opposition of United States Senators whom the cor
porations own.
How MANY Senators of the United States are going to ad
vertise the fact that corporations own them? How many will
suggest that they are the holders of corporation letters, receivers
of corporation checks—not yet published? :
And how long are they going to continue their opposition?
There was a day when the ownership of Senators by corpora
tions might be called a matter of speculation or opinion.
That day passed when the Standard Oil letters were read,
inclosing cash to Senators and telling the Senators what to do.
The men that hate Brandeis and fear him, BECAUSE HE IS
HONEST AND REPRESENTS THE PEOPLE, are the very men
that buy Senators and buy legislatiogy
~ There are. interesting proofs that corporations control the
Govognnt of the United States in this fight upon Brandeis.
Brandeis opposition will supply an itemized list of SBena
tors OWNED, or Bcuators that HOPE TO BE OWNED some
d;iy; by the corporations that make the life of a legislator profit
able.
Brandeis will be confirmed. of course. Fortunately Senators
are now elected BY THE PEOPLE.
And some corporation Senators that would gladly obey or
ders and vote against Brandeis if they dared, do not like the
!hou:t of explaining that vote later—when election day comes
around.
Old Virtues Have Not Changed
Much in Years
Religion Is Weleoming Back the Men and Women of the War
Harassed lLands
Religion is coming back to France.
The churches that have been almost empty for a genera
tion are full now—crowded to the very doors with women who
weep and with men who pray.
The church has come back to Germany—the pevple who
laughed at any religious form are filling the churches there, too,
these days.
~ In Italy the lights burn late upon the ancient altar and the
old cathedrals are crowded to the doors with devout and earnest
people. ;
The free-thinker who was so popular three or four years
ago does not find himself the idol of the boulevards today.
- The scoffing philosopher who was always surrounded by
an admiring circle of respectful friends walks by himself, Un.
der der Linden, nowadays. s
And in England it is no longer the proper thing to be a
follower after strange gods, a seeker after mystic and secret
theories.
. When the gods arrive, the half gods go. g
Theories are all very weli whern they are merely—theories.

MEMORIAL DAY.
(Macon Telegraph.)
From a little book by Rev, W.
J. Bcott is taken this lterary waif
written by Mrs. D. D. Cox many
years ago. The writer witnessed
the scene described. He was a
young student at Bronwood
school, taught by Billy Johns,
Mrs, Cox sald: “It =was the
night before the LaGrange Light
Guards, Captain Bmith command
er, left for the fleld of pattle, and
for the last time on earth the
members of that company, many
of whom were also members of
the church and cholr, took the
holy sacrament with the friends
they were leaving behind, Eyes
unused to weep shed blinding
tears on that occasion, for well
did we know that many around
that sacred altar would mnever
again drink of the sacramental
wine until they took it anew in
their Father's kingdom.
“Mothers knelt at that altar by
the side of precious sons Just
about to be sacrificed on the aliar
of thelr country, Fathers drank
of the cup which commemorated
the death of God's only Son, and
realized, as never bo‘on. how
great was His Father's conde
scension in giving up His be
loved Son,
“Sisters, with their arms
wreathed around darling brothers'
clad for battle, felt how solemn
and awful was the night when the
disciples ate the last supper with
the Master, 30 soon 10 be taken
from them. \M mournful sac
ramen: was a fitting reminder
of the night before the death of
the Bon of God.
“‘When shall we meet again——
Mee! ne'er to sever;
When shall Peace wreath her
chain
‘Round us forever?"
Of the 110 young men, the very
flower of LaGrange and Troup
County, who joined in the gervice
on that eventful occasion, only
A few survived the war, and
The Silent Watcher
those few had wounds that pre-
Mentured a return to Georgia.
Here at a glance one recognizes
the significance of Memorial Day.
It is & remembrance of our de
parted soldlers—those who fought
and died and also of those who
fought and lived,
And the women of the South
established this Memorial Day.
It is in reality consecration day—
not for pomp or ceremony, or fes
tivity, but a day sacred to Con
federate soldlers. It is the South's
Kreatest monument. It is a day
when we meet to pay tribute to
the memory of those who made
such heroic efforts to save con
stitutional liberty to the South
ern States and the great princi
ples of local self-government,
It is well to keep afreshi these
memories, for they cast a mellow
‘flory over the South. just as the
sun after its departure lsaves be
hind those splendors wnich llum
ine and make beautiful the even

Two Chaps
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.
One chap was attired In the latest regalia,
Blossoming bright as a iy or dahlig-—
Weariug the dizziest kind of cravats,
Swell from his derby clear down to his “pats,
Nothing was wrong in the way that he dressed ;
All of his garb wasx the newest and best.
He could win u girl's pralse
. And make her heart throb; »
He could hold a girl's gaze,
But not & man's 4.5,
The other was not a remarkable dresser—
He looked at first glance ke a small town professor ;
His elbows were shiny, his collar old style,
And he wore a plain derby Instead of a tile.
In the same gray sack suit he appeared every day,
With any old necktle, tled any old way

THE HOME PAPER.
——————— By J. P. Greene =——
President William Jewell College.
S it grown, or engraved, or
I forged? Al these.
We are born without char
acter, but it soon sprouts, and
then grows rapidly. The soil is
the home, the school, the social
life, the business world—different
kinds of soil, each contributing
its element to the growth of char
acter. .
Parents, teachers, comparions
and business associates are the
character cultivators, and large
ly determine the quality of the
product. But, after all, each one
grows his own character.
Th word “character” is Greek,
and means “engraved”—an an
cient and beautiful conception.
We—it may be with the help of
others——engrave our own charac
ters when we begin to act on our
own judgmehts, ‘wWhen we choose
and do, and thus form habits, A
habit is a groove, or a line cut in
the soul, fixed, along which fu
ture action is almost sure to run,
Many habits make an engraving,
a permanent picture of the soul,
character,
It may be truly said also that
character is forged. The human
soul is a piece, of metal, without
form and without beauty. Or
probably it has been engraved
without knowledge, and is inartis
tic, ugly. It must be worked over,
In order to make it right it must
2o into the hot fire and under the
big hammer. If properly forged,
it will come out with a parmanent
form of grace and beauty. False
lines and deformities—bad habits
of thought and action—must be
hammered out. They can not be
brushed off. .
WHAT IS CHARACTER?
What is “character?” 1t is I,
what 1 am, not what I seem to be,
not svhat others think me-to, be
(this is “reputation”), nor what I
desire to be, nor hope to be, but
Just what I am—what 1T have
grown into, what has been en
graved on my soul, the form of my
soul-metal as it came from the
forge.
Character is a stable thing. De
giring and doing form character.
But when it is once formed it de
termines thought and action. If
you know the character of a man
pretty well, you can tell what he
will do in certain circumstances.
A man that loves money inordi
nately is very apt to steal if
strongly tempted. o
A mood is not character. A
transient virtue or vice is a mere
shadow—a chalk mark on the
soul, not an engraved line. Good
men have vicious moods, and bad
men have virtuous moods. You
have read of the “polite burglar,”
or the “kind-hearted robber.” And
~ You have perhaps seen the gener
ous man give the needy the “cold
shoulder.” “Judge not the Lord
Letters From the People
GEORGIA COURTS.
Editor The Georglan:
It is a well-known fact that the
Appellate Courts of Georgia are
worked to such an extent that the
decisions rendered by them can
hot recelve the attention that they
would like to bestow upon them,
if they were not pressed by such
overwhelming numbers for con
sideration and decision.
The writer is not apprised of
the number of cases carrled to the
Appeliate Courts of Georgila, in
volving amounts of S3OO and less,
but the chances are that if the
Appellate Courts could be relieved
of all cases Involving S3OO and
less, their dockets would perhaps
not contain more than Iplt the
cases that they now carry,
It is unfalr to our Appellate
Courts to overwork them, and 1t is
not pleasing to the litigants to
have cases pending wo long in
them before they are decided.
The plan proposed is for the
Governor 1o select three Superior
Court judges for each judiclal cir

some central point in each circuit

MOOD AND CHARACTER.
In the great fire in Pera, a
Christian suburb of Constantino
ple, June, 1870, Turks, vied with
the Christians in trying to save
Christian women and children.
One rich Turk offered a great sum
»to anyone who would =save a
Christian boy from: a burning
building!
This was a mood. Nature,
buried and almost crushed be
neath a thousand strata of re
-ligious and race animosities,
sprang to the surface for a mo
ment and spoke the natural lan
guage of the soul. But pity for
Christians, or anybody else, was
not and is not a characteristic of
the Turks. p
Here is an old proverb, nearly
as old as the race: “As he think
eth within himself (in his heart),
- so is he.” Will this man steal?
That depends upon how he has
been thinking in his heart, for a
~ long time,
i If he has long been willing to
~ do almost anything. to gratify
~ some desire that calls for money,
~ he will probably venture into the
region of dishonesty.
1 A friend once stopped me on the
~ street and sald: “I want to tell
~ You something. Ihave in bank, in
~ my name, nearly two million dol
[ lars. A company was supposed to
' be bankrupt, and went into the
- hands of a receiver. The stock
~ holders met to plan for their pro
~ tection. They appointed me -to
‘i look after their affairs. It is all
~ settled. I made the receiver de
-1 posit all the money in my name.
- He protested every time, but al
~ ways yielded. .
| “A while ago a friend suggested
that I could lend this vast sum
~ and pocket the interest. It will be
eighteen anonths till the final set
tlement.”
My heart stood still as I"said:
“WHI you do it?" He had carried
on a large and honest business
for 40 years. What an opportu
nity for making character! He
answered In his everyday voice,
gentle and firm:
“I would not do such a thing
for the whole two million. I am
now going to call a meeting of
the stockholders, to see what they
want done with their money!”
THE ROOT OF THE SOUL.
A majestic oak Is beautiful on
a calm day in June. But as it
writhes and groans in the tempest
it is awe-inspiring. The unseen
roots hold. Character is rooted in
‘ thought. As a man thinks, so is
he!
twigce a year, and let these three
Juages consider and pass upon the
cases involving S3OO and less
where writs of error have been
sued out from the various courts
throughout the State. Of course,
the judge of the circuit in which
the writs of error are sued out
could not preside in the Appellate
division of the Superior Court in
his cireuit. L
If proper legislation could be
enacted to Incorporate into law
the foregoing suggestions, the
Supreme Court and the Court of
Appeals of Georgla would be
greatly relieved from their over
work, and litigants would be much
better served. If this were done,
our Supreme Court and Court of
Appeals decisions would be much
more thorough, and business
would be expedited very much.
Then our Appellate Courts would
have ample time to consider in
detail the cases which came be
fore them,
Something must be done to re
lleve the pressure and to prevent
stagnation of ltigation before the
courts. 0. E. HORTON,
