scended, but the glory belongs to our ancestors."

fives Instead of between horses and men on the one
hand and Infuriated bulls on the other. There Is ev
a certain amount of personal risk In pulling off one
these'collisions, for the man who pulls the lever has to
Jump while the engines are going at a high rate of speed
and there Is always a chance that he will break bis neck
which would bo almost as exciting as to see him gored
to death. Still there would not be so much of butchery
to mako a Spanish holiday and we think, on the whole,
the morals of the spectators would not be-qulto so much
depraved. 4
The forthcoming event will be watched with great
Interest and we heartily recommend It to the young king
of Spain and the rulers of the Spanish American repub
lics of high and low degree.
The General Assembly.
The members of the general 'assembly are arriving
on every train. On Wednesday the bouse and senate
will be called to order by their respective officers and
will settle down to bnelneee for the summer.
Death bas made but few Invasions In the ranks of
the present body, and the old familiar face* are with
us once again.
. For the remainder of the summer, speaking In gen
era! term*, the law making body of the state will be
with us and will concentrate Its attention on a num
ber of measure* of great Importance.
There waa a great deal of unfinished business at
the adjournment of the legislature teat summer, and
much of this consisted of measures which demand
prompt action.
Among these are the various bills providing for pure
elections. Hon. Boykin Wright's measure, amending
the election laws so as to prevent the buying and
selling of votes, la one of the most Important of these
measures. Much has been said of this manure already,
but the Importance of It cannot be exaggerated. - The
people of tbe state are determined that the prActlco
of Illegal voting, either In primary or regular elections,
shall cease, and they are heartily In favor or the most
rigorous provisions looking to that end.
The appropriation for the Jamestown Exposition
Is also favored by the state at large. TblB will be one
of the most Important Industrial exhibits ever Been In
the South, and It would be little short of a misfortune
If tho great Empire State of the South were not repre
sented there next year when the gates are thrown open
to the world. We dev not anticipate that there will be
nny serious opposition to the appropriation, and It Bhould
he passed at the earlleit possible moment In order that
Georgia's exhibit may be placed to the most advantage.
The blit by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, aimed at tho lobby
ists, providing that "legislative counsel or agents" shall
register with the clerk of the house, should become a
law. It Is a long step toward tho regulation of lobbying
and the elimination of whatever improper methods may
obtain In the practice.
The agitation In favor of puro food legislation has
stirred the whole country and gives a timely and em
phatic significance to the bill prohibiting tho adultera
tion of food In the state of Georgia. This measure, also,
wns Introduced by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, and will meet
with very general support
One of the most Important of all tho measures boforo
the house Is the bill providing that all rallronds operating
In this state shall be Incorporated under tho general
laws of this state. The anomally of having to deal with
great railroad systems which have no corporato status
under the laws of tlie state Is an oversight which should
not be tolerated longer. Tho dlcusslon last yenr revealed
tho fact that while there was some opposition to the
hill, the people themselves were heartily In favor of It,
and It should bo among the very flret measures to go
upon the statute books.
This, however, Is hardly secondary In Importance
to the bill of Mr. Alexander, proving that the state road
should be extended to the sea. Thp time Is rapidly ap
proaching when the present lease of the state road must
expire. Something must be done to provide for the
future, and there Is a strong and earnest sentiment in
favor of Mr- Alexander's plan. It will come In for a
goodly amount of dlacuaalon during the present seaaton,
and it Is generally agreed that It 1* one of the moai vital
questions before the people of the state. ,
These are. In tact, but a few of the moit Impor
tant measures before the legislature at this time. Tbe
general assembly la aomposed of patriotic and Intel!!
gent men, second to none who have ever met here, and
the people expect a great deal from them. The pre
liminary work Incident to the reassembling will be over
In a day or so, and then the members will come down
to hard work for the next fifty days
We are confident that they will give a good account
of themselves.

A Substitute for Bull Fights.
Arrangements ere being made for a unique sensation
by way of celebrating the' Fourth of July up In the state
of New Jersey. An enterprising railroad man. who baa
always had a morbid love of railroad colflalone, has de
cided to pull off one of these frightful Impacts ns a spec
tacle and Is selling tickets for the performance.
It will he somewhat expensive, to be sure. Tbe two
giant engines which will be used for the head-on collision
have been purchased at a coat of $26,004, for while they
are somewhat old they are by no means out of commis
sion, and are worth something more than they would
fetch as old Iron.
He has laid a track sad engaged hla engineers—
">oung daredevils," he advertises them to be—and will
have everything In readiness when the glorious Fourth
arrives.
Railroad men throughout that part of the country
are said to be very much interested, as well as the public
lu general, so la spit* of the enormous sum which he It
spending the Impresario will no doubt make quite a neat
sum.
This Is not the first Um* that such a stunt has been
pulled off, to be sure. But heretofore. It Is contended, the
engines have been so old and feeble that the collision
was little better than a farce. This time It will be the
real thing, and the celebration of tbe Fourth of July op
that way will be a notable event.
The thought occurs to us that something of this kind
might be Introduced In Bpaln and la Spanlih American
countries as a substitute for the bull fight, which Is com
ing la for so much of the reprobation of mankind. That
the boll fight ta brutal and brutalising there can be no
couhc U the public must have excitement why not give
it to them in the form of a combat between two tocomo-
A Text from the Lunch Counter,
At one of Atlanta's leading restaurants on Monday,
fifty mon were gathered around a circular table at tbe
hour of noon.
A gentleman of observant mind, having finished bis
own dinner, quietly strolled around tho circle to see
what his neighbors were eating. Only one man out of
tbe fifty hod upon his plate a piece of roast beef or any
Imported meat. Tbe rest were confining themselves en
tirely to vegetables, soupB, fish and chicken.
We learn that on yesterday the Cudahys shut down
a $600,000 meat plant In Louisville, Ky.
So It goes. The people are swift In these newspaper
days to know their enemies and to know their dangers,
and swift to rebuke Iniquity when It Is made clear.
“Honesty Is tho best policy." Old As tho copy books runs
the proverb, and the desire to accumulate frequentiy
reaches the rosulta of tho dog with tho bone, who snap
ping at the bone in the water lost the bone In hts mouth
We have no doubt but that tbe meat monsters of
thls gencratlon have lost more In a slnglo season by the
exposure of their horrible and cruel dishonesty than
they hare gained by the pracUce of their Infamies for
tbe lost three years.
Tbe result no man can know. It Is perhaps true
that In this generation at least there will not be as much
meat eaten as In the decade which has gone before. It
will take the man of people a long time to get over the
conception of poisoned meat or to whet their appetite*
with the recollecUon of tho monstrous Iniquity and un-
clcanness of tbe great firms that have been accuitomod
to supply the tables of the people with this element of
food.
It will be curious to watch tbe result of a diminished
meat consumption upon the health and spirit of this peo
ple. Japan haa recently enlightened the world upon the
capacity for work and endurance which can be built out
of a fish and vegetable diet, and It may be possible that
the object lesson of Japan, followed so soon by the mon
strous object losson of the meat villains, is designed by
destiny to change In part tbe diet, and perhaps the health
and endurance of this great Amorlcan generation. Who
can tell but that this horrible debauchery of poisoned
meat which has been going on longer than any of us
can tell, may be In part the explanation of the germ dis
eases, tbe microbes ot cold, cholera and meningitis, and
the other multiplied diseases which have distinguished
this generation? And who can tell but that the large
Providence which ihovos In the affairs of men may have
bad a hand In all these exposures, so as to give a new
loose ot life and health and strength to this chosen peo
ple, upon whose shoulders rests the hope ot liberty and
progress of the world?
This Is rather a largo editorial to grow out ot a
lunch counter text, but taller oaks In times past have
grown from smaller ncorns than this, and while It would
not bo safe for any man to predict that the American
people aro drifting Into a race ot vegetarians In diet, tt
Ik reasonably snfe to predict and certainly pleasant to
hope that It will be a long time before we are such vora
cious meat esters as we have been In the past
Colonel Charles E. Herman has this day paid his
assessment and formally announced for alderman for
the Eighth ward of Atlanta.
It was our pleasure some months ago to comment
pleasantly upon the entranco ot another gontloman Into
tho race to represent this ward, and we cannot do lei*
than say that Mr. Harman's entranco adds a brightness
and flavor to the race In the Eighth which will be ap
preciated throughout the city.
There ere few brighter men In Georgia than Charles
E. Harman, and It may be added that there are few
more popular. Ills long connection with railroad af.
fairs, hie wide experience with mon and with money,
and his high character for Intelligence and probity make
hts entrance into local politic* a theme of congratulation
to those who wish well to the government of Atlanta.
It goea without laying, that Mr. Harman will make
a strong, brilliant raoe, and that the Interests of the city
will be essentially safe In hi* able and experienced
hands.
To the Virginians of Atlanta.
There Is a case of charity which appeal* particularly
to Vlrgtnlaoi of Atlanta. It Involves a Virginia girl—a
tale of suffering, a drama of unaelfiah sacrifice, and a
tragedy which threatens to follow upon a tempted loyalty.
A paltry sum can straighten out a sorrowful tangle In a
young woman's life and set two young feet once more In
happy paths of usefulness and right It It only a few
hours work that will be needed, and the Virginians In
Georgia will find the Georgian* In Georgia responsive In
co-operation. But what ta done must be done immedi
ately—before tomorrow's sunset.
I-et those who are Interested apply to Mrs. J. B.
Wiley, of the FJrat Baptist church, or to the heed of Cir
cle No. J ot the King’s Daughters.
The Russian Decay.
It Is a great pity that there was a Portsmouth Peace
Conference.
It Is a pity that savage Russia t* not now governed
by a wise Japanese mikado, Instead ot a weak, vacillat
ing, terror-stricken ctar.
A nation that tolerates massacres, a nation that
cannot restrain its rabbled millions, should be under
■ubjugatlon and a wits protectorate. Russia It far
from being a civilised nation.
The recreant officials of the rotten government
look on while helpless men, weak women and Innocent
children are brutally slain.
The world etande aghast at the tale* of rapine' and
blood that the cables bring from this wretched land.
A government that cannot protect Its children la
worse then no government. A nation that can, and
will not, enforce laws of peace and order, I* a cowardly,
barbarous nation, and It Is shame and disgrace that the
world alt* calmly by and permit* the horrors to go on.
God doe* reign and the day must dawn when these
poor, berried Hebrews will not be driven from their
home*, when the cities and villages of darkest Russia
will no longer be lairs of beasts, and shambles of grief,
sorrow and despair.
EX-GOVERNOR NOR THEN

About Criticism .

|Ju8t made. It Is further due to i
when Dr. JIuJI. chairman of our de

cal denominations In the city, looking
to our proposed Invitation to Dr. Tor

ravioli f.rm., _ , promptly Introduced the following res-
JT™: former Governor William J- joint loci heartily Indorsing the Invita-
Northon. president of the Busin-
Men's Gospel Union and the leader in
the movement that brought Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta, haa made his say.
Governor Northen waxes warm In his
statement. He says he hopes the con
troversy Is over. He also says that If
those who contributed to the fund for
the revival meetings aren't satisfied
with the results he will personally pay
back their contributions, and—
That those who didn't contribute
anything to tho meetings are butting
Into what doesn't concern them when
they criticise.
His card follows:
It has been my purpose, at the proper
time, to make a public statement about
tho unfortunate state Into which the
community has been precipitated be
cause of criticism upon the Torrey-
Alexander mission, alleged to have
been made by the Baptist ministers'
conference, held some days since.
I am candid to say, when I read the
published report. I was shocked, as was
tb<- ,-mlr- 1 immunity! Shocked, 'be
cause of the account given of the pro
ceedings of the conference and shocked
again, because'of what seemed to he
tho remarkable revulsion of opinion as
against what had been the strong posi
tion taken by the conference up to that
time.
It was Impossible for me to reconcile
these two positions—so absolutely con
filctlng, and I was deeply distressed.
Soon after reaching my office last
Tuesday morning Dr. Millard called me
over the ’phone to say the published
report was erroneous.
In the forenoon of the same day Dr.
White called at my office to say the
same thing, and he showed me the
card to be signed by several members
of the conference, denying that the
public statement at all represented the
spirit or the sentiment of the meet
ing. Later. Dr. Ward called to con
firm this view. I have a letter from
Dr. Briggs, from which I quote:
“The meetings were productive of
treat good. Dr. Torrey Is a man of
God. All Atlanta Is under lasting ob
ligations to the Business Men’s-Gospel
Union for bringing these consecrated
witnesses to Atlanta.”
Other members of the conference
have expressed themselves In the city
jress through Interviews and pertonal-
y signed cards.
Whole Mattsr Settled.
These facts coupled with the action
taken yesterday by the Baptist minis
ters, In conference assembled, plainly
and fully setting out their true posi
tion, should fully and satisfactorily
settle the whole matter In the minds of
all the people and bring us again' to
dwell together, as Christians, In peace,
In harmony and In love.
It Is due, In this connection, that I
should now give even more fully the
MMltlon of the Baptist ministers’ con-
erence upon the coming of Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta.
When the Kuslqes* Men's Gospel
Union waa considering the possibility
of .securing Dr. Torrey's services. Dr.
Broughton presented the matter be
fore the Baptist ministers' conference,
stating that the Gospel Union had
such purpose and such plan In view.
The whole matter was freely discussed,
whereupon a resolution was adopted,
appointing a committee from the Bap
tist ministers' conference to co-operate
with the Business Men’s Gospel Union
to the end named.
Dr. Millard was made chairman of
this committee. He at once communi
cated with me. announcing that hla
committee was ready to render the
Gospel Union all the help necessary to
secure the Torrey-Alexander mission
for Atlanta. With this committee. It
due to say. Dr. Broughton actively
co-operated and without the help given
by. Dr. Broughton and the committee
from the Baptist ministers' conference
t Is more than likely Dr. Torrey could
not'have been Induced to hold hts mis
sion here.
Bsptlsts Took Initiative.
It must now be quite apparent to all
the people that the Baptist ministers
took the Initiative, through Dr. Brough
ton, and the ministers* committee, In
bringing Dr. Torrey to Atlanta.
tlon and agreeing to co-operate,
every possible way with the proposed
mission:
"Resolved, That the Evangelical
Ministers' Association heartily sympa
thizes with the movement ot the Busi
ness Men's Gospel Union -to secure
the services of Messrs. Torrey and
Alexander for evangelistic meetings In
this city during the month of May,
1905."
-That, as a conference, we agree,
each pastor for himself, as far as pos-
-It'l—. i" devote some portion of the
month of April to special services for
the awakening and revival of Chris
tians and the salvation of unbelievers
In order that the best results may be'
achieved by the Torrey-Alexander
meeting."
Surely all these things, now taken
Jointly, and In the best of faith, are
more than sufficient to satisfy the peo
ple that the Baptist ministers of the
city have not been properly and fully
understood, and, therefore, the criti
cisms upon them have been wholly un
due. We should all hasten most lov
ingly and gladly to repair whatever In
jury may have been'ddne to the cause
of Christ and to ministers who have
been eo unduly censured.
Can we not now all come together
In the name of the Most High God to
do His service In the "awakening and
reviving of Christians and the aalva-
tlon of unbelievers. In order that the
best results may be achieved by the
Torrey-Alexander mission?”
The Governor Waxes Warm.
Before this end con. be fully reached,
It Is necessary to notice at least one
criticism .from among the many that
have been made directly upon the
plans of the Business Men's Gospel
Union. This one has come to us from
all kind* and classes of men, ministers,
laymen and unbelievers. It began
when Dr. Chapman waa with Us.
has continued, unabated, since that
day. It developed In greater force
when Dr. .Torrey came. It has, finally,
been hurled at us from the pulpit as
the statement of Rev. W. T. Hunnleutt
of this city. He Is reported as saying:
The Torrey-Alexander revival serv
ices held here recently received 85,000
worth of advertising, and If It had not
been for this they would have failed.’’
Mr. Hunnleutt has Just Informed me
that he wjs reported correctly In this

statement. As to the accuracy ot the
statement I have nothing to say, but
leave to him for further Investigation.
This criticism has come to us In
many forms. If Mr. Hunnicutt con-
tributed any mor

with the results and will to Inform me,
I will gladly return to him the amount.
I desire to make thia statement even
broader. If there it any man in At

investment did not pay, and will so in

At the meeting- of the Baptist Min
isters' conference, held Monday' morn
ing, at which the differences of certain
members of that body and
Clarke, Jr., a Constitution reporter,
were discussed, the following resolu
tions were passed:
'In view of the accounts of the pro
ceedings of the last session of this con
ference, published In The Atlanta Con
stitution of June 10, be It
“Resolved 1. That the utterances
therein reported as having been made
by one or two of the members of this
conference were the expressions of their
own Jnvidldual opinion, and this con
ference in no way put Itself upon rec
ord as agreeing or disagreeing with
said brethren.
Resolved 2. That there was no sug
gestion Intended, or step ta^en toward
preventing the return of Dr. Torrey to
the city of Atlanta, and no committee
proposed or appointed for that purpose.
One member of this conference. In the
• VI «.f his Ji.-r-nnal liberty, quietly
stated that If it were left to him per
sonally, he would not Invite Dr. Torrey
to return next year. Some present ap
proved of this sentiment, others did
not. The brother referred to, however,
added that he believed In the gospel
which Dr. Torrey preached.
"Resolved' 3. That th£ Statement
made by one of the brethren relative to
tainted money* was not used by him
with reference to the Torrey-Alexander
mission, but was suggested as an ob
jection that was liable to be urged by
objectors against all union evangolistlc
efforts ns such.
Resolved 4. That as this conference
took no official action upon the subject
of the Torrey-Alexander meeting last
Monday, it here and now officially
states that it 1s of the opinion that
said meetings were a great blessing to
the city of Atlanta; that It regards
Messrs. Torrey and Alexander as men
of God, powerful In the Scriptures, and
greatly used of the Holy Spirit, and
that It has taken no action contrary to
the resolutions unanimously adopted
May 28, which are hereto appended.
“They are as follows:
“Resolved by the Baptist ministers*

God for sending Messrs. Torrey and
Alexander to the city of Atlanta, and
for the great blessing that has already

V, P, BURT
HAS PASSED AWAY
In a statement made Monday night,
Mr. Clarke corrected certain parts ot
hla story on the meeting of the Baptist
ministers. He said:
“During the executive session It de
veloped that there were four matters of
fact In regard to the meeting concern
ing which I had been mistaken and
which I cheerfully desire to correct.
"No motion was passed to Indorse
Dr. Landrum’s speech; no motion was
made or passed to oppose Dr. Torrey's
return; the reference to the taint of
money greed was not used by Dr. White
with reference to the Torrey meeting,
but with reference to the general de
fect of great union evangelistic meet
ings. Dr. White did not say that the
Methodists would Join the Baptists In
opposing Dr. Torrey's return, but re
ferred to the fact that he believed they
would co-opemte In a general evangel
istic movement along the lines he had
outlined."
When asked If the matter had been
closed, Dr. John E. White said:
“The differences between the minis
tors' association and Mr. Clarke have
It. n si-ttlrd. Mr. Clarke Raid volun
tarily that he had made misstatements
In four particulars. With this admit
ted, there Is nothing more to be said."
