t III RUSH FOR S THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. TUESDAY. OCTC ROOT’S SPEECH PRINTED BY GOVERNMENT OFFICE Choicest Claims Are Staked Off During the Night. IYNCHINGS AVERTED BY MOUNTED POLICE Protests by Telegraph Are Filed with Department of the Inferior. Oklahoma City. Okla.. Oct. 30.—All the most valuable mineral claims In the Walker Lake Indian reservation sere located In the darknea last night In willful defiance of the United States law. When the rush took place Into the reservation, those who had waited for the signal found that all the most valuable land cdalms Ip the vicinity of the Rich Dutchman's Cottonwood, ami numerous other ccreeks emptying Into the southwestern section of Walk er lake had been taken up by the men who had rushed In the darkness of night contrary to law. Police Prevent Lynching, inly the presence of mounted Indian police restrained the angry, disap pointed gold seekers from taking the law into their own hands and lylnch- Ing the men who had crossed the line In the darkness. A scandal of Im mense proportions Is brewing. Not on ly did unscrupulous settlers Ignore the law. but serious charges are made against officers of the United States army. The rush Itself was the most spec tacular thing of its kind ever wit nessed In the history of the opening of Indian reservations. The signal for the rush was the firing of a mighty blast of dynamite at the highest point on the adjacent mountains. Msn Fight During Race. As the crash of the explosion rent the air, hundreds of gold seekers In automobiles and on race horses, dashed across the line In an Indiscriminate mixture. In the first Impetus of the rush many men narrowly escaped be ing run over and trampled to death under; the.hoofs'of horses and being crushed bWArtsdnrt ‘fhe automobiles. The sand arose from the plain In stifling clouds. It-clogged the wheels of the automobiles as well as the honfa of the horses. Many -of the autos be came stalled In the deep sands and those on horseback were really at an advantage. As a number broke down or stuck In the sand, the occupants continued the race on foot. Men fought with each other; pulled each other down In their mad efforts to gain some slight advantage In the race for gold. Anger -Follows Dissppointmsnt. It tvas a aorry, jaded, disappointed lot of men who arrived finally at the coveted Eldorado. Overcome by thirst and exhaustion, the gold seekers barely had strength enough left to search for locations. Then at once arose a storm of anger and curses. All the cholcy locations along the gold-bearing creeka had been taken. The rush Into the reservation was followed by a rush out of It to the tel egraph wires, which were burdened with protests to the secretary of the Interior. It la believed all claims will be declared Invalid and a new rush arranged for. Public Printer Forced to Aid Hughes’ Campaign.

Hla speech Is now ready— a portion of It was put In type at the government printing office yesterday, and just enough of It has leaked out to show that the secretary, who always has something to say when he takes the stump or platform, will pay his re- spects to Candidate Hearst In choice, but vigorous language that cannot be misunderstood. He will speak for the administration and when he has spoken there will be no doubt, If doubt ever existed, as to the deep Interest felt in Washington In Candidate Hughes' election. Worked in Lunch Tima. Secretary Root completed the prep, aratlon of hla speech yesterday. Short ly before noon Chief Clerk Denby sent part of It, If not the whole of the speech, to Public Printer Stillings as an emergency piece of work. It was to he put Into type by i o'clock p. in. Of course Mr. Stillings was equal to the emergency. Doubtless he knew what the document was, but thsre was no pause for Inquiry to Interrupt the office routine. The speech went to the printers, cut In small ''takes." and was In type at the hour appointed. To get the speech In type by 3 p. m„ printers worked, dur ing the noon or lunch hour. If It had been a presidential proclamation the force would have gone hungry and complained not a whit, hut when they discovered they were working out of hours on a political speech, and' that, too. Containing an attack on the print ers' friend. William R. Hearst, a few of them, at least, felt quite disgruntled. Printers Are Disgusted. "Why should the government print Ing office be used to set up. political speeches7” they asked. This question went the rounds quiet ly. of course, but not quietly enough to prevent Its reaching the public ear in the course of a few hours. Secretary Root, when questioned last evening, very promptly made the state ment printed above In the foregoing. Public Printer Stillings says' he simply executed an order received from the department of state. The question of "overtime" for the printers, who went hungry, may come up at the end of the week. Secretary Root has decided to leave Washington for Utica, N. Y.. Wednes day, where he will apeak Thursday In the Interest of the candidacy of Charles E. Hughes, for governor.

Under the provisions of the bill, as it left the bouse of commons, children were not tompelled to attend school during the time devoted to religious Instruction. •'*» amendment submitted to the house nf lords reverses this and It was car- iP d by a vote of 256 to 56. The majority Included the archbishop "f ' ’niJlerbury, a score of bishops, and almost the whole opposition. The Inci dent inaugurates the long* foreseen •iKht between the opposing majorities Ip the two houses on the educutlon question. Washington, Oct. 30.—Disgust mixed with amusement was the feeling shown by officials of the state department to day when their attention was called to what they characterized the remarka ble speech made In Berlin last week by Professor Burgess, of Columbia University, who Is the first incumbent of the Theodore Roosevelt professor ship of American history at the Uni versity of Berlin, Germany. The statements made by Professor Burgess that high protective tariff and the Monroe doctrine are obsolete in this country are stigmatized as canards manufactured by Professor Burgess, without any authority from any one connected with the American govern ment. While the president is doing his ut most to encourage friendly relations between the United States and Ger many, there Is authority for the state ment that he will not stand for the re marks made on Sunday last in Berlin by Professor Burgess, if that gerftle- man has been correctly quoted. It Is possible that Professor Burgess' re marks will prove not -to have been s« radical as they have been reported. Placing the United States in what Is declared to be an entirely erroneous position wltl do Incalculable Injury to the promotion of those amicable rela tlons between this country and Ger many, for which the present ad minis tratlon is striving. salary basis, feelfng well assured that nearly at! the abuses with which Justice courts In this county have been charged during the past * ew y®a**» are traceable to the fee system. ‘*We recommend that when the time arrives for nominating candidates for the legislature from this county. In 1901k strong and capable men be voted for who are witling to pledge them selves In- advance that they will use every effort to have such legislation enacted as will, abolish the fee system absolutely, as far as this county It concerned. Road Improvements. The Jury recommended the improve ment of many roads In different por tions of the county. It called atten tion especially to the fact that the roads In the northern part of the coun ty have been practically unworked. In speaking of these latter roads, the report says: "We And upon Investigation that pre vious grand Juries have called atten tion to these facts, as well as others. in> this same report, yet the commission ers seem to ignore entirely all the rec ommendations of the various grand Ju ries." Here are two more striking para graphs from the presentment as It af fects roads and bridges: • "The matter of the bridge over the Southern railroad near Brookwood should be attended to by the county commissioners at once. It seems to us that there has been negligence on their part; the road is in a dangerous condition, and while It Is true, no doubt, that the railroads have made promises, yet we believe If It had been an In-, dividual the county commissioners would have seen that the bridge was attended to long ago. Corporation Should Pay. "The county road toward College Park Is now being double-tracked by the Georgia Railway and Electric Com pany. This corporation has practically taken control of this public thorough fare, which Is one of the most valuable in the county, leaving space enough for but one vehicle to pass at a time, and we condemn the action on the part of the* county commissioners In grunt ing to any corporation or Arm or In dividual the use of public roads with out adequate compensation. The Gedr- gta Railway and Electric Company ought to have been made to pay for sufficient ground on either side or the road so that the public road could be extended on either side commensurate with Its needs." ' The Jury found the convict camps In excellent condition, but recommends that they be visited oftener by the county physicians and that they be lighted with electricity and given a few coats of paint. - • ,. The Jury recommends that the old portion of the court house be put In better condition Immediately, "even if Increase In the county tax rate should be necessary.” The county Jail was found to be In good condition. The books of Commissioner of Pen sions Captain J. W. Lindsay and the pension books In the office of Ordinary Wilkinson were found to be In good condition, but the grand Jury recom mends that some way be provided whereby the grand Jury can make such an examination as to determine In a short time whether or not any names have boon fraudulently placed on the lists. They recommend, however, that the examination of these pension lists be taken out of the grand Jury's hands and that a special pension examiner be appointed for the purj*ose. Illicit Physicians. The presentment states that no df- rect evidence of Illicit practice of medi cine has been obtainable, but that they have been informed that much practice In Fulton county Is Illicit. The jury recommends that the legislature be asked to require a four-years' medical course, instead of three years, before a license to practice is granted. The jury thinks there has been con slderable Improvement In the conduct of the magistrates' courts In the last year or two. The people of Fulton county are con gratulated on having had Professor T. A. E. Means appointed as Superintend ent of the reformatory and the grand Jury highly compliments the conduct of this Institution. A similar school for negro boys la recommended. The grand jury Is much gratified at the fact that for the first time in their existence the public schools of Fulton county can now be kept open for nine months In the year, and Is also, pleased with the general condition of the schools. The report on schools concluded with this paragraph; Combined School System. "The next forward step Is to unite the educational Interests of the coun- The city/of Atlanta and. various suburbs have closely related Interests, making the present separation o(,school lines artificial and absurd. The other e cities of the state have i county schools united, wtth an ed ucational board representing both, and all experts agree that this Is the only proper plan. The ‘Greater Atlanta' ed ucational system, with the two high schools strengthened and magnified Into a city college, should be the aim and steps should be taken to accom plish this before the next meeting ot the legislature." Here Is a sentiment to which the grand jury gives voice In Its general recommendations: "We are of the opinion that no coun ty official, while in office, ought to accept employment of any kind from any corporation controlling public util ities. No man can serve two masters. The Interests of the county and of the corporations controlling public utilities are frequently in direct conflict, and It Is practically Impossible for any man to properly serve these conflicting In terests at the same time." In conclusion the presentment bears testimony to the careful and thorough and conscientious manner In which Judges Pendleton, Reid. Calhoun and Roan perform their difficult and la borious duties. The excellent record of Solicitor C. D. Hill is also commended. The grand jury at its last session adopted a resolution requesting Sheriff Nelms to withdraw the commissions of all of the special deputies appointed during the recent riot. Personnel of Jury.

Make Yourself At Home In Our Store We Have Both Telephones AN ENGLISH COMPLIMENT TO SOUTHERN AMERICANS; SOME COMMENTS THEREON The London Dally Mail c</mment* on the unusually large number of vlMltor* In London from the southern part of the United States.

The Southerner has always maintained more of the bettei ^characteristics of the parent stock than the Northerner, and in the South to day Is to be found the purest American blood on the continent. The large num ber of Southerners abroad thla year Is Indicative of the South's prosperity. More people are In better financial condition to travel. The Washington Post says of South ern people and Southern development: Commerclsl nml hualuesa st&tlatlc* have been revealing, In their cold. austere way. * years the rapid change taking place ... the South, The I'ost has noted with genuine pleasure from time to time the erldeucet of substantial, solid and conaerv- a five development In every section of. the Mouth, hnt nothing In the statlaflca of The 1'offa comments tins mo nidiiledly empha sised the prosperity of tue Month as the observation of the lenidnn paper.

This Is n tribute from a newspaper which Is familiar with the South, Its people and history'. Some years ago an Englishman In a leading London Journal declared that during the Civil war his sympathies were wholly with the North; that he regarded the South erners as whites who had degenerated under a system of slavery until they had become Inferior to their ancestor! and unworthy of sympathy'. But after reading how they fought for four years against greut odds, and how, after the war, they met the hard conditions of reconstruction days, maintained their racial Integrity, rebuilt their wasted land and fallen fortunes, established their supremacy', displayed their supe riority under the severeat testa, and conducted themselves with courage and conservative restraint,! but with inflex ible determination and devotion to their convictions and their Ideals, his views underwent a complete change, and he became convinced that the white people of the South were the highest type of all the Aryan race—that they were the most remarkable people on the globe. This Englishman should have had a better knowledge of the Southerner be fore the war. There were many' Eng lishmen who did. and who testified to their high qualities, to their unsur passed excellence' as a people, and who declared the men and women of the ISouth were the noblest types of their race.—'Nashville American.
