man next week.
Do not negleot the summer vacation'.
It is as necessary as work.
The report that Will Myers is aiding
the notorious outlaw. Tracy, is probably
incorrect.
Mr. Bryan says if Gomez was bribed
somebody bribed him and that the
bribe-giver should be found.
We expeot to find out in a few days
that the person who oaused the Johns
town disaster was a native of Atlanta.
The people of Athens should lend a
helping hand to the free kindergarten
work being done In the oity under the
direction of the Woman’s Olub.
According to the c9nsns of 1900 there
ore in the United Staoes 15,768,818 per
sons who were born in the South, 10
that native Southerners constitute near
ly one fijth of the total population of
the country. Of this number 1,347,121
are living in other states outside the
South. Virginia has contributed 165,620,
Kentucky 830,044, Tennessee 164,122,
Maryland 186,838, Texas 141,868. Arkan
sas 107,880, West Virginia 90.841 and
North Carolina 52,781. None of the
other states sent more than 33,000, the
emigration from most the gulf states be
ing comparatively small.
This emigration has been goiog on
for years, but in decreasing numbers
for some years past, so that it is nothing
now compared with what it was for
some years after the war, when there
was a rush to the West. Some of the
railroads had traveling agents out work
ing np that business and competing for
it.
This loss of population, wo are glad to
say, hCB been partially offse; by immi
gration from Northern and Western
States, especially in the Southwest,
where the bulk of these people have set
tled. It is impossible to rtate the exact
number of these settlers, but a large
number of them have made their homes
herein Georgia, and the immigration
has been great enongh to make this a
safely white state. The immigration
from the Northwest is on the increase
and will continue to grow beoause the
new comers have bettered themselves
and are taking an interest induoieg
other Northern and Western people to
cast their fortunes in the South.
With prospects in sight for a new city
hall and a fall oarnivol, the ootside
world will get the impression that Ath
ens is on the forward maroh.
The Greene county primary for nomi
nating county officers and a represents'
tive, will be held on Angnst 6th. There
are many candidates in the field over
there.
“The senator from Indiana would not
retract and the senator from Texas
wonld not look pleased,’’ says the Birm
ingham Age-Herald, “so congress ad'
joorned in despair.”
“Governor Davis has read Senator
Jones out of the party, but, then,” nays
Sam Small, “the senator oan do as Davis
did to the church—walk around the
block and join again 1"
The Washington Post thinks it didn't
do the Minnesota Democrats any par
tioular good to adopt a Populist plat
fot m. The populate of that state have
placed a ticket of their own in the field.
Mr. Bryan’s Oommoner has been in
creased in size and the ex-candidate is
working for subscriptions for all he is
worth. We are informed a liberal dab
bing offer will soon be made with the
Oommoner and the Georgian.
The Greensboro Herald-Jonrnal says
“It is said that seven cities contended
for Homer—after he was dead. Judge
Hamilton MoWhorter Is equally nnfor
tnnate: two are contending for him
living—Athens and Lexington, with
odds in favor of the former.”
Hon. DuPont Guerry, like Mr. Flem
ing, complains of the unfairness of the
primary system. The Georgian says
“Mr. Terrell’s popular vote was about
8 to 2 for Mr. Guerry, and yet Mr. Ter
rell had in the convention nearly thres
times as many votes as Mr. Gneny.'
Now that the oity of Athens is In
fair way to get a new oity hall, and the
prospects for getting the oonnty court
house down town are not gloomy, our
people should work for the advancement
of the city as never before In her history
The carnival wonld advertise the city
abroad as no other thing would, and it
looks to ns as if this should be sufficient
argument in favor of the carnival.
With onr greatly enlarged navy there
has been a demand for more officers
than our naval academy oan supply,
Secretary Moody has therefore ordered
a nnnber of those who have been enjoy
ing soft snaps on nominal shore duty
to go to sea where they are greatly
needed, and their places are to bo sup
plied by civilians, who are abundantly
competent for snob work. That is
very sensible order and it looks like
business.
NEGLECTED PROMISES.
During the closing honrs of the late
session of congress the house spent a lit
tie time in carrying out some of thelong
neglected promises of the continental
congress. In 1777 congress voted that a
monument bo erected in honor of the
memory of General Franois Nash, of
North Carolina, who was mortally
wounded at the battle of Germantown
Two years later congress solemnly re
solved that a monument shonld be
ercctod to the memory of General Pal'
aski, who was killed at the siege of Sa
vannah. In 1781 congress resolved that
a monument shonld be erected to Gen
oral William Lee Davidson, of Ponnsyl
vania, who was killed while fighting
Cornwallis on the Catawba. The conti
nental congress was well supplied with
ink and paper and had no difficulty In
drafting and adopting resolutions, but
it was always short of money. The
monuments it ordered ereoted had not
b6en erected. The house therefore ap
propriated 1100,000 for statues to Pulaski
and Steuben, and $5,000 each for monu
ments to Generals Nash and Davidson,
one a Pennsylvanian killed at the South
and the other a southerner kilted at
Germantown.
