OUR PLATFORM—The Georgian stands for Atlanta owning its own gas and electric light plants, as it now owns its
water works. Other cities do this and get gas as low as 60c with a profit to the city. This should be done at once.
The Georgian believes that if street railways can be operated successfully by European cities, as they are, there is no
good reason why they cannot be so operated here, but we do not believe it can be done now, and it may be some years
before we are ready for so big an undertaking. Still Atlanta should set its face in that direction NOW.

Washington, Sept. 19.—Active
preparations for an invasion of
Cuba by an army of the United
States are being made by the war
department. Brigadier General
Fred Funston, the hero of the
Spanish and Philippine war, has
been selected by the president to
command any army which may be
sent to Cuba and Brigadier Gen
eral Thomas H. Barry, assistant
chief of staff, and W. P. Duvall,
who commands the department of
the gulf, both of whom are now in
Germany attending the German
army maneuvers, have been cabled
to come home immediately for pos

It is stated by high authority
that October 11 is the limit which
has been set by the president for
an amicable agreement by the
warring parties of Cuba. If peace
is not established by then it is
probable that powerful military
arid naval forces will be sent by
this country to Cuba to force the
Cubans to return to peaceful liv

Hong-Kong, Sept. 19.—The horror of
yesterday's disaster grows steadily.
That the death list wilt reach beyond
1,000 seems certain. At least twelve
chips were eunk at their moorlnge,
double that number were driven ashore
and few craft In the harbor escaped
e damage.
_he number of water craft which
were destroyed Is past estimating. The
recession of the great wave which did
a great part of the damage to the ship
ping undoubtedly carried many bodies
ea. The loss of life will never be
ascertained with any degree of accura
cy.
The governor general la bending
every energy of the government to
preserve order and to bring order out
of chaps, and with some success. The
troops are doing splendid service. The
shipping Industry Is at a complete
standstill. Those vessels which escap
ed eerloue damage cannot handle car
goes as practically every lighter In the
harbor has been destroyed.
See Gives Up Deed.
The sea today Is giving up Its dead
by scores, the victims of yesterday’s
typhoon. From the numerous build
ings wrecked by the terrific wind many
corpses are being removed and over
the city hangs the pall of the dread
ful disaster.
In the harbor the water is covered
with floating wreckage. Along the sea
wall, the piers and lining the beach
are the beaten and broken hulks of
countless craft, while smaller pieces of
wreckage cover the whole shore. In
the city great piles of debris show
where th, storm spent Its fury.

Becauae his wife, May Nelson Gress,
has chosen to take legal steps to Insure
the payment to ber of alimony in the
event she gets the divorce which she
asked August 22, her husband, George
V. Gress, has Hied a petition In the
superior court asking that the order of
the court made on that date be s<
modified as to dissolve the portion ty
ing up his money.
When Mrs. Gress filed her petition
for divorce In August she obtained a
temporary order restraining her .hus
band from withdrawing $30,900 which
he had placed In the Fourth National
Bank as a guarantee that she would
be provided for In the event of a legal
separation.
In the petition Just filed Mr. Gress
denies the Jurisdiction of the superior
court of Fulton county. He says that
he has made no attempt to conceal
property and that further the provision
which he has made for alimony has
been liberal and ample, the $10,000 hav
ing been deposited In the Fourth Na
tional Bank to that end.
He contends, however, that the suit.
If filed at all, should have been brought
In Berrien coui.iy, where he maintains
his residence, but that since Mrs. Gress
has chosen to resort to the courts Mrs.
Gress Is no longer entitled to that
money which he had voluntarily de
posited In her favor.
Mr. Gress argues that because of the
|Fgai steps hla wife has taken this ac
count has In equity and good con
science been deprived of Its character
as a special deposit for her benefit, Mrs.
Gress having elected to treat as a nul
lity the agreement under which the de
posit was made.

JOHND, ROCKEFELLER
SLIPS INTO HOME
New York, Sept. 19.—John D. Rocke
feller was at his estate near Tarry-
town today chuckling over the way he
slipped away from Cleveland on Mon
day night and got safely to his desti
nation without a newspaper man be-
In The New York American and a
score of other papers In the largest
cities of the United States appeared
last Sunday a full page syndicated arti
cle on the stalking Ku-Klux Klan that
Is, In that article, declared to be pa
trolling the streets of Atlanta by night,
armed to the teeth and provided with
hemp. i
The atory la headed, "Georgia's Fierce
Ku-Klux of Angry Men, Armed Wom
en and Bloodhounds.” It has a picture,
five columns wide, showing a hideous
band of shrouded and masked men,
waving weapons and torches. On the
side ore several kennels of blood
hounds.
This article, which has doubtless
reached 6,000,000 readers, according to
the circulation claims of the news
papers that printed It, has aroused In
certain leading Atlantans as much an
ger as possible in a case of impersonal
libel.
Mayor Woodward, Secretary Walter
G. Cooper, of the chamber of com
merce; Judge George Hlllyer and oth
er cltlsena have been severe In their
criticism of such an extraordinarily
untruthful and malicious libel of u
city.
The story Is said to have been sent
out from Atlanta, aIthough.lt bears no
date line.
Judge Hillytr Hot.
"It Is the fashion of the civilised
world to tell lies on the South, and the
young men In Atlanta who are egging
on these lies by sending out false re
ports should be retired to private life,"
said Judge George Hlllyer.
"The men who got up that article are
worse than the negroes who committed
the atrocious deeds. The negroes are
led by nnlinal Instinct and are Igno
rant; the others-are educated and are
led on by small pecuniary gain. Where
as the negro injures one family, such
articles Injure the entire South.”
Mayor Woodward expressed his In
dignation thus:
"Such articles can not he condemned
too strongly. The man who sent It out,
If It was sent from this city, knew at
the time It wa* false. The Idea of
prominent cltlsens patrolling the
streets of Atlanta would be ridiculous
If the matter was not so serious In the
wrong It work* on Atlanta."
“Law Should Handle Cate."
Secretary Walter O. Cooper, of the
chamber of commerce, said:
"The practice of sending such arti
cles to the Northern papers Is growing
worse and worse. And some day this
matter will be taken up and laws en
acted providing criminal punishment
for the pensetrators."
The Lurid. Artiole.
The article is prefaced with an elab
orate account of the "periodical news
of lynching which horrifies the whole
country." Then come* the following:
"Now ’comes the astonishing news
that as the only apparent means of
guarding their wives and daughters

though all preparations have been
