Now if the best class of negroes will take steps like the Marietta negroes who had resolutions pub lished in the Journal last week, condeming crime among their race and stand ready to help bring the guilty to justice, it will stop so much crime. Their action in pub lishing to the world their attitude toward the crime element in their race, if they mean it and are sin cere in carrying out their resolu tions, will bring about a better feeling between the races, and will help much toward ridding the country of the low and sorry class of negroes. Cobb county has had some very aggravating crimes committed late ly, and the people are in no mood to see justice trifled with. Delay in courts is dangerous and does + much toward encouraging lynch law. Let justice be dealt out promptly to the guilty and the peo ple will be satisfied. Glad to know ‘that Rev. Mr. - Holderby was so impressed with Cobb’s prohibition ideas. Yes, Cobb is prohibition, and will remain 80. Her papers are prohibition and no whisky ads soil their pages. The people generally get what they want. If Cherokee, Fulton and oth er counties see near beer is harmful and dangerous, then the good peo ple should get rid of it. Cliff Scott has bought a farm from Asa Darby, and will build a new house thereon. There is some speculation as to who will occupy it. We have no idea, couldn’t imagine. By-the-way, Ed Kemp is building a new house. Really, we don’t know whether it is anoth er ‘‘tater” house or a winter resort he is building. Ask Ed. Nkt Let the comnmittee on the wheat and corn acre contest get together and make some rules and have them published, so those wishing to contest can begin preparation. We suggest Joe Hardage as chair man. ALLEN.

From an Electrecian’s Note Book. An electric lawn mower has been perfected. Germauy used 300,000 ho;‘s% power developed from water; Frahcp 650,000; Italy 464,000, Switzer land 380,000. Cver 5,250,000 horse-power from water is now de veloped in the United States. The city of Naples will soon by lighted from water power. At Copo Volturno 16,000 horse-power wil' be generated and carried at 45,000 volts to the city, 56 miles away. The General Electric Company has perfected the new Tungsten lampe for 200 and 250 volt circuits. This was formerly thought to be too high a voltage for the new lamp. The last cable road in Brooklyn will soon be electrified. The adaptability of electrical en ergy is only limited by human imagination to devise new ways to put it to work, New methods of applying it are invented every day. Electric light can be adapted to suit any imaginable architectural scheme without entailing the slightest fire riek. ; Electric motors can be applied to all commercial machines and ap ‘pliances where power is needed in any desired quantity and at any desired epeed. During the past year the General Elecrric Company has produced a new gas-electric car for short line railroad work. The new caris driven by electric motors from cur rent supplied by a gas engine driv en generator located in the forward part of the car.
