He will make the race aa the repre

to entitle him to the aupport of pro

Personalities, prejudices and antaß- 1
nnlaina play too big a part in Georgia
politics. We hope the day has dawn
ed in which men will go to the polls
and register their choice of candidates
without considering cliqual Jealousies
and factional prejudices, but with a
careful and conscientious regard to
the best interests of the whole people
of the state.
We need hroad progressive men to
the front 1n Georgia. Men who are
free from the taint of the political ma
i hlne and men w hose ndnds are not
subjugated to the hypnotic control of
corporations. •
As wo have before remarked It Is
very important that the people of
Georgia select their own governor. We
cannot afford to leave the destinies
and developments of thla great stats
to the-scheming of selfish political ex
ploiters and established political ma
chinery.
The man who polls his vote for the
governor of Georgia rests under u
sacred responsibility. It Is his duty
to act with deliberation and conscien
tious thought. It is his duty to take
measure of tho character of the man
who is running and the platform upon
which his race Is made.
Haharwa being equal, suppose we
simplify matters by leaving this issue
out of tho question?
THE LANGUAGE OF SALUTES.
Tho position of The London Dully
Telegraph that It mutter* not what
Wublniton may aay about It, If Huer
ta ran make the Mexicans bellovo a
Saturn aalute oon*tltute* recognition
by the United Staten la far fetched.
We know of no language that cannot
be arbitrarily mlaeonatrood. It la Im

sort of rushing forward among nations
to give their interpretation* to every
little gun-firing deed the meaning all
It* own
The fact that the president and the
secretary of state distinctly state that
a return aalute will have no other
meaning than a gracious acceptance
of the urged apology makes It all about
as clear as it I* possible to be.
It Is a waste of time to consider how
Huerta may endeavor to present It t«
the Mexicans. Aside from all these
considerations, howgver, we think that
the effect of sending the United State*
ships to Mexican waters cannot fail to
he good. The Mexicans need a re
minder that the United States is not
going to tolerate Impudence and Is
prepared, whenever events demand It.
to look after her own self-respect with
forcefuj "argument." It is as well to
growls*qd hark once in a while when
watchfully waiting.
If Huerta desires Intervention from
the United States, let him continue
hi* insolence and bring It on. but be
is not likely to endear himself to the
Mexicans by letting it he seen. That
is probably the reason why he has
concluded to make the decent amend

PASTOR DUBOSE,
LOCKIMUfiS
Strict Secrecy Maintained Aa
to the Proceedings at Last
Night's Meeting of Church
Stewards.
Atlanta, Ga.—Strict secrecy was en
joined upon ail those who participat
ed Thursday night In a special con
ference between the stewards of the
.First Methodist Church and its pas
tor. the Rev. H. M. DuHose. It Is
understood, however, that the main
object of the meeting was to formu
late definitely tlm future attitude to
ward locker clubs of the church and
Its pastor.
The pecesslty for such action is
Raid to have arisen from the wide
divergence of the views oT Dr. Du-
Bose and a considerable portion of
his congregation. The divergence rs
believed to have been emphasised by
the expression of Dr, Dußose's atti
tude In the resolutions recently adopt
ed by the ministers' union. These
resolutions were at first understood
to forbid church members from be
longing to locker clubs under penalty
of discipline In a subsequent letter
this construction was disclaimed by
the members of the union. The In
tent. It was said, whs to condemn
locker clubs, but not to threaten
church members who belonged to
them.
'When questioned last night. Dr. Du-
Bose sahi the stewards wished noth
ing snld'about the meeting. He was
asked if his own attitude on locker j
clubs bad undergone any change.
"None whatever." he answered.
“Is it to be understood that you are
opposed to them?" he was asked.
"It certainly Is," he replied.
“And that you are opposed to the
members of your congregation belong
ing to them?”
’’Yes, sir."
The meeting of the stewards lasted
for two hours. The \ artlcipanfls were
united In their refusal to tell what
had occurred

-Beauty Lesson*
LESSON IX—PART I.
THE PRESENT FASHIONS —ARE
THEY BECOMING TO THE
AVERAGE WOMAN?
It U often bemoaned by poets and
philosophers that the age of great
personal beauty Is past; that there are
today no unique examples of loveliness
to which the world pays homage.
There is no reason to doubt the ex
istence today of beauty as compelling
as ever adorned the pages of history,
and there Is every reason to believe
that the average woman is far better
looking than has ever before been the
case.
General Improvement In Looks.
There are several reasons for this.
Women now take more intelligent care
of their looks; their minds are better
cultivated ao that Intelligence of ex
i presslou adds to mere physical
’ charms. Moreover, the modern fash
ion of dressing with its wide choice Is
far more becoming to the average
woman than the more flamboyant
modes of the past which were only
suited to very beautiful types.
In youth at least, every woman
today has her share of attractiveness,
and the proportion of good looking
women of middle age Is growing larger
every year.
Influence of Dress.
While modern dress has not equaled
the picturesque quality of the Renais
sance or the gorgeousness of the
courts of the French Ixiuis', it has ex
press'd precisely the modern woman
nnd the condition under which she.
lives. Cut and workmanship have Im
proved; costumes for practical oc
caalons have grown more comfortable,
more utilitarian, and, as knowledge
of dress has become more widespread.
Individuality in gowning has become
more pronounced While women, as a
whole, have declared In favor of dress*
Ing along certain prescribed lines
; lermed “the fashions," these lines have
Seen elastic and sufficiently varied to
lult different types. The result has
>een pleasing and generally becoming.-
