THE GEORGIAN COMES TO
GEORGIA AS THE SUNSHINE
A msn msy well bring s horse to the wster.
But he cannot make him drink without he will.
—Haywood.
Georgia’s “Home Coming.”
Public Interest Is beginning to concentrate on the
Home Coming and Infaro (or former Georgians which will
be one of tbe most notable and delightful feature* of tbe
atate fair next fall.
Beginning on Wednesday, October 10. and contlnu-
log for the succeeding three days, there will be a llat
of attractions designed especially for the pleasure of
the returning sons and daughters of Georgia, together
with their descendants, who have wandered off to other
states and made their homes.
It Is estimated that there are at least 410,000 native
Georgians now living in other states of the union, while
the descendants of these people run far Into tbe millions.
They have made a success In tbe various lines of endeav
or which they have undertaken, and wherever they have
cast their lot have reflected honor upon the state of their
birth and lineage. Many of them have risen to eminence
In the counsels' of the nation. In law and medicine and
all the professions, In commercial and Industrial life, they
have carved a name for themselves In their adopted
homes.
But each and every one of them I* proud of the old
mother atate, which once embraced that Imperial empire
extending frtyn the mouth of the Savannah river to the
banks of tho Mississippi. In tbe midst of all their busy
activities their hearts respond to the name of Georgia
and they find themselves Involuntarily repeating:
"Where'er I roam, whatever land I see.
My heart, untraveled, fondly tnrns to thee.'
It waa a happy Inspiration on the part of the manage
ment of the state fair to plan a home-coming for these
eons and daughters of Georgia. There la pleasure for
them In returning to ihe red old hills of Georgia at any
time, to mingle with the friends and companions of tbelr
youth and to breathe the fragrance of tbe sun and the
soil which blessed their childhood, but there la a mani
fold charm In returning at a time when they can not
only mingle with tho people of Georgia, but with one
another. It will be In the nature of a reunion In which
the friendships of earlier years will be' renewed on the
part of all the wanderers, who could not hope to meet
each other under any other circumstances.
The program for the three days ol the reunion has
been arranged with an eye to the fullest enjoyment and
the most appropriate ceremonies. The flrat day will be
devoted to registration of visitors, the assignment of
badges and Informal meetings. On the second day there
will be addresses by distinguished iotas of Georgia resi
dent hero now or living In other state*. On the third
day there will be an old-fashioned all-day singing, when
John Howard Payne's "Home, Sweet Home” will be sung
by a chorus of 5,000 voices. Tbe author of this Immortal
song once lived In Georgia, and he aent the original man
uscript to his sweetheart. In Athena, who treasured It as
long aa the lived.
This Interweaving of the memory of John Howard
Payne, the author of tbe moat touching domestic poem
In any language, with the patriotic sentiments which
the name of Georgia Inspires, wpnld In Itself render the
occasion a memorable one from every point of view.
Blanks are being aent out broadcast to Georgians
throughout the country whose names and addresses are
known, and they are requested to fill them In and there
by inform the committee* of their Intention to be pres
ent, where they will atop, and other facts necessary for
making tbe record complete aa far In advance as possi
ble. It Is hopsd that there will be a general response to
this appeal and It It hoped at qny rate that the date will
be born* In mind and that there will be thousands of
Georgians from all parts of the country on the occasion of
the great Home Coming. •
of Iron and steel ranked first among the selected Indus
tries both In IPOS and In 1900. Tbe combined Industry,
Including blast furnaces and rolling mills and ateel works,
showed an Increase of 4 In the number of establishment*
reporting. The capital Increased $18,130,810, or 82.6 per
cent, and tbe value of products, 17,294,875, or 41.9 per
cent. The number of wage-earnera Increaaed 1,362, or 18.7
per cent, and tbe wages, $993,488, or 40.6 per cent. The
remarkable growth of the Industry la emphasised by the
fact that In 1905 there was more than nine time* as much
capital as In 1880, over live times** many wage-earners,
and more than sixteen tiroes the value of product*. There
were 19 establishments reporting blast furnaces and 10
reporting rolling mills In 1906, as compared with a like
number reporting blast furnaces and 6 reporting rolling
mills In 1900.
Between 1900 and 1905 for the pig iron branch of the
Industry the capital Increased $7,738,694, or 55.8 per cent,
and the value of products, $3,158,024, or 23.4 per cent.
The number of wage-earnera decreased 80, or 1.6 per cent,
but the amount of wages paid Increased $667,191, or 40.3
per cent. Between tbe two censuses the total production
of pig iron In the state Increased 258,101 tons, or 22.3 per
cent The state gained also In Ita percentage of the
total production of pig Iron In the, tJnlted States, the
Increase being from 8.3 per cent In 1900 to 8.9 per cent
In 1906.
In the total production of pig Iron Alabama ranked
tenth In 1880, third In 1890, and fourth both In 1900 and In
1905. In the manufacture of foundry pig Iron the state
ranked first In 1905 and In 1900; In the production both
of basic pig Iron and of forge pig iron, second In 1905
and third In 1900; and In the production of white, mottled
and miscellaneous grades, second In 1905 and first In 1900.
Steel works and rolling mills Increased In number from
6 in 1900 to 10 In 1906. The capital Increased from $5,-
392,215, or 124.6 per cent; the valuo of products, $4,136,
852, or 104.9 per cent; the number of wage-earnera, 1,432
or 65 per cent, and wages paid, $436,297, or 40.7 per cent.
Thp most marked Increase In rolled Iron and steel was In
blooms, slabs, billets, tin plate bars, and sheet bars pro
duced for sale, which Increased 81,726 tons, or 104.4 per
cent, in quantity, nnd $1,021,216, or 119.7 per cent, In
value. A large output of steel rails was reported In 1905,
but as only two establishments wore engaged In the In'
duatry the quantity and value cannot be shown without
disclosing Individual operation!. No return was made for
steel rails In 1900.
Cotton manufacture show* the largest actual Increase
In number of wage-earners and In value of products
of any Industry In the state. This Industry ranked sec
ond In 1905 and third In 1900. There was an Increase
of 15 In the number of establishments reporting. The
capital Increaaed $13,119,292, or 112.7 per cent; the value
of product*, $8,607,195, or 105.6 per cent; the number of
wage-warners. 3,148, or 37.8 per cent; and wages paid,
$976,702, or 65.$ per cent The proportion of wage-earners
In this Industry Increased from 16.8 per cent of the to
tal for all Industries hi the state In 1900 to 18.6 per cent
In 1905, nnd the wages paid from 9.9 per cent to 11.1
per cent
There were 758,087 producing spindles reported In
1906 and 411,338 In 1900, the Increase'being 346,759, or
84.3 per cent. Tho number of looms Increased from
,549 to 16,659, or 83.2 per cent. In addition to this ma
chinery In the active mill*, 6,000 producing spindles were
reported for mill* that were not In operation.
Alabama’s Manufactures.
The census bureau ha* recently Issued a report en
the manufacture* of our slater state of Alabama for the
year 1905. ' *
The** figures show that while there has been a de
crease of 115 In the number of establishments, the total
capital increased $45,216,955, or 76.1 per cent, and the
value of products, $37,069,993, or 51.4 per cen; while the
average number of wage-earners Increased 9,463, or 18
per cent, and the total wages, $6,966,768, or 46.7 per cent.
Tho decrease In number of establishments was duo almost
entirely to the large decrease In the number of estab
lishments reporting lumber and timber product*.
The reports of the twelfth census show 6,608 estab
lishments In Alabama, with 62,902 wage-earners, and
products valued at $80,741,449. Of these establishments
3,000—employing 62,711 wage-earners and manufacturing
product* valued at $72,109,929—are comparable with tho
class of establishments Included In the census of 1905,
when the number of establishments reported was 1,882,
the number of wage-earners, 62,178, and the value of prod
ucts, $108,183,922.
Of the establishments reported 78 per cent were In
the rural districts In 1905 and 81.9 per cent In 1900. The
value of the products of rural establishments was 80 per
ceat of tbe total for the state In 1905 and 73.6 per cent
In 1900. V.lth the exception of a decrease In the num
ber of establishments In the rural districts, both urban
and rural localities showed increases over 1900. The
rural districts showed the larger percentages of Increase
In capital, total wages, cost of materials, and value of
products, while the urban districts showed greater per
centages of Increase In the number of establishments and
in the number of wage-earners.
The 1,312 establishments reported In 1906 for the 11
selected Industrie* formed 69.7 per cent of the establish
ments, represented 86.6 per cent of the capital, employed
87 per cent of (be wage-earners, paid 88.1 per cent of the
wages, and reported 86.1 per cent of the value of products
for the state. These proportions are about the same as
those for 1960.

Relief for the Supreme Court.
The governor, !u his recent message to the genera)
assembly, called attention to the crowded condition of the
supremo court dockets and urged upon that body the ne
cessity of taking Immediate steps to provide for a court of
appeals, In order tbat the Interests of litigants may not
suffer because of the Inability of the Judges of the su
preme court to decide the vast number of cases brought
to that court within tbe time limited by the constltuUon.
At the general election held In October, 1896, the peo
ple ratified an amendment to the constltuUon, which In
creased the number of Justices from 3 to 6. The cases
brought to $he October term, 1890, and the succeeding
March terra numbered 778. In the paat ten year* this
number has Increased abolit 60 per cent, the cases dpclt-
oted at the October term, 1906, and at tho March term of
the present year numbering 1,165.
This Increase In litigation Is due to the remarkable
growth and development of tbe state, especially In the
southern portion, which has brought about an Increase
of 40 per cent In'the taxable value of property since
1896.
The time baa come when It la no longer poselble for
the six Justices of the supremo court to dispose of. the
cases which come to It from 145 superior courts and 57
city courts. Whon the supreme court was reorganised,
there were only 137 superior court* and 13 city courts;
within tbe past ten yean, the need of more city courts
haa been felt, and their number la being Increased at
every seaslon of the legislature. )
The right of appeal should be preserved, as It haa
been In the past under our constitution, so that every
cltlsen may be assured of hla right to have hla case
heard and determined by a court of review. This right
Is not accorded to the cltlxon of some of our slater states,
where bond Is required before an appeal can be entered,
or heavy cost bills are Imposed to deter ther small liti
gant from prosecuting his case, or whero only cases In-
volvlug a considerable amount may be brought under
review.In tbe courts of last resort.
The policy of our own statd has never been to Im
pose restrictions upon tbe right of appeal which prohibit
any but the rich from enjoying the. benefits of a review
ing court sustained at the expense of the public. As
the governor has well said, Justice should be adminis
tered "freely without sale, fully with out any deulal, and
speedily without delay," la every case, great or small.
The practical question of meeting the emergency by
creating another court which will share tho burdens with
which the supreme court Is overwhelmed I* now before
our general assembly. It can no longer be Ignored. Up
on what plan another reviewing court should be organ
ised Is a matter of moment, doubtless, but no difference
of opinion upon this point should be permitted to delay
legislative action.
Under the provisions of our present constitution,
the supreme court la required to dispose of every case at
either the flrat or the second term after It reaches that
court, and If for any reason a decision Is not made within
the time limited, the Judgment of the trial court must
stand affirmed, whether It be right or wrong.
It will be but a mero matter of time before many
casea taken to the supremo court must share this fate,
unless relief Is afforded the justices promptly by decreas
ing the number of cases with which they are called on to
deal. The point has already been reached where It I* Im
possible for tbe court to hear oral arguments In any but
a small proportion of the cases which crowd Ita docket*,
and litigants have been dented this privilege only because
of the Impelling necessity of attempting to deal with all
alike and decide their cases before the court loses juris
diction to do so under the constitutional provision
above referred to.

JEROME,
R008EVELT AND THE
JUDGES.
From The New York World.
With all that Mr. Jerome said In hie
Georgln speech In reproof of President
Roosevelt for having criticisedl In a
message to congress Judge Humphrej ■
decision In the beef trust cases The
World is In the fullest accord. It was
protesting against Mr. Roosevelts
amatlng conduct month* sgo, when Mr.
Jerome was so busy trying to thwart
the ruling of Judges and prevent the
Indictment of George,W. Perkin* that
he had no time to protest against pres
idential Indiscretion*. .
But who Is William Travers Jerome
that he presumes to censure Theodore
Roosevelt for criticising i Judge? Is It
worse for a public official to critic se a
specific Judge for a apectfle decision
than to make reckless, sweeping, un
substantiated assaults upon a Judiciary
B Vhe' r Worid has no Intention of apol
ogising for Mr. Roosevelt or of condon
ing his offense against good taste. But
In complaining of Judge Humphrey**
decision the president did not hide be
hind general statements; he did not as
sail the whole federal Judiciary, and
he did not Insinuate that Judge Hum
phrey was dishonest or corrupt. He
complained that the ruling of the court
r .li.. .one malrlnv the lau-
a child labor bill. We say "at last'
because several previous efforts to pro
cure such legislation had ended In com
plete failure.
The bill Is far from being a "radical"
anti-child labor measure, according to
Illinois standards, for instance. It pro
vides that no child under 10 shall be
employed In any manufacturing estab
lishment; that no child under 12 shall
be so employed unless he or she has
no parents and no means of support,
or unless such child Is the sole support
of a widowed mother or an aged and
disabled father; that no child under 14
shall be employed at night, and, final
ly, that no child under 14 shall be
'given employment unless he or she has
attended school for a prescribed period
and can read and write.
When we consider that even .milder
bills than this encountered bitter op
position In the past we are not sur
prised to hear from Impartial Investi
gators of Southern labor conditions
that "far too many children are em
ployed" In the Southern mills and fac
tories. Not only are the anti-child la
bor taws that have been enacted In late
years In every way Inadequate, but the
enforcement of them often leaves much
to be desired. Miss Gertrude Beeks, the
author of an elaborate report, made for
the National Civic Federation, on con
ditions In Southern mills, say* that em
ployers violate the child labor law be
cause labor Is extremely scarce and the
majority of the operatives expect their
children to work. In several states
there are no compulsory education taws,
no provision for truant officer*, no fac
tory Inspection, no proper registration
of births. In these circumstances the
mere enactment of a law raising the
age of child tabor le only a slight step
In the right direction.
There Is much work before the en
lightened employers and the humani
tarians of the Southern state*. Georgia
behind nearly all her sitters, and,
therefore, even the very moderate
measure of reform represented by the
taw above summarised Is regarded as
notable achievement for her pro
gressive and publlc-epirlted cltlsen-
ship. We may add that a juvenile
court bill Is pending In the Georgia
legislature.

TWO RAGING DOGS
SLAIN BY OFFICERS
Two mad dogs had their day In At
lanta Monday and will frighten no
more cltlxens with the thought of hy
drophobia. Both were shot before they
had bitten any one. ’
E. Arnold, of 389 Rosser street,
called the police station Monday after
noon and reported that hie dog was
showing signs of rabies. Call Officer
Payne went to the house and found the
dog, which made a dash for the officer.
One shot ended the animal’s troubles.
Later In the afternoon Call Officers
Dunton and Calleher went to 60 Logan
street In response to a telephone mes
sage and shot a pug dog which showed
signs of a fit or rabies. Reports of
mad dogs have been prevalent In At
lanta for several weeks and the po

account of being bitten by a maddog

4, died at the Pasteur Institute at 11
o'clock Monday night
The child was bitten badly, and
though brought to Atlanta, the dread
disease had already secured such a
foothold that nothing the doctors could
do wns of any avail. HI* sufferings
were something pitiful to see, but for
tunately the little fellow was uncon
scious for a large portion of the time.
His mother brought him to Atlanta,

The duchete of Marlborough has a

her to be broad-minded. •
Mr*. E. R. T homa *’ eyes are Indica

Mrs. Nicholas Longworth's eyes have

Mrs. Anthony J. Drexel has truthful

I see the announcement that the navy
Is short 2,000 men of Its complement
and there Is difficulty In filling the
ranks with proper material. It always
ha* seemed strange to me that more
bright young American boys do not try
a term or two of enlistment In the navy.
The advantages are many. In the
first place, a boy U taught thoroughly
the lesson of discipline and obedience
of orders. They are taught to be nest
and oareful. The life Is nbt hard, every
effort consistent with the good of the
service being made to make things
pleasant for the young sailors. They
are well fed, well housed and well paid.
If they desire to remain In the service
and are willing to work hard enough,
they can achieve a commission In time
or with less work can become warrant
officer*. If they so desire, they can
become .experts in a number of trades
which offer good wages ashore, when
they leave the navy. I am ne recruit
ing officer for Uncle Sam, but I will
eay there ore many worse things a
bright young fellow can do than to
serve uncle Sam aboard one of his
battleships for a while.
Confronted by a situation that would
have bewildered most women, the wife
of County Judge Frederick Crane, ot
this city, rose to heroic height In sav
ing her 10-year-old daughter and the
letter’s playmate from death by
drowning In Great South bay.
The Cranes have a summer home at
Sayervllle, L. L The daughter and her
little friend went bathing day after
day. Both Jumped off the end of a pier
yesterday from which they could IM
the sand simmering at the bottom ot
the bay.
They misjudged the depth, and sank.
TVave* swished them out of reach, Ju«t
aa Mr*. Crane arrived. Shy heard their
cries, and without divesting herself of
a single garment, leaped In. In spite
of the great handicap of her attire, Ihe
mother swam up to the girls, brought
them to the shore, and then fell, ex
hausted.
Richard T. Wilson, Jr., son of the
