THOB. E. WATBON A 8 A WORKER. A new book from the pen of Hon. j Thomas E. Watson has just been hi ! aped by the Neale I’ubllahlng com | pany, to lake Pa place In the llbra : rle of the country with the o*h»r j work, of lhi. fleoigla author. The new book, "Waterloo." forma one of j the historical nerles of Mr. Watson * ; works, and is a sort of sequel to Napoleon," as that work is to "The i story of France." As everybody knows, the hlstorbal writings of Mr. Watson are divided Into two classes, | one relating to French history and the other in American history. In ] the latter class It must be reroem : liered that the last chapter of his I idfe of Andrew Jackson” was pub j Uahed only a f< w months ago, in ! The Jeffersonian Magazine. At pres ent Mr. Watson is believed to be an ! gags-d In an amplification of his "Ro- I man Sketches," In which he will take ,up successively the leading charac- I ter* of Roman history. Resides these historical Works Mr. ! Watson has written other hooks, the charming story "Bethany," a mixture I between biography and historical ro rnance. and his hooks on political sub Jectß, all together forming quite a library by themselves. However much Georgians may dif fer In their appreciation of Thomas K Watson, there are none that do not admire his wrltlnga. Unfortunately, on a (fount of his political activi ties, his own people are widely di vided In their appreciation of him, and while there are many in whose eyes lie Is the greatest man living and who lu their hearts honor him above all men, there are other* who aa heartily dislike him and who assign him to a low place among dema gogue*. Perhaps it could not be oth erwise In regard to one of Ms decld ed views and strenuous activity in 1 contending for them, and who ha. the courage to array himself against (he power, that lie. Because of this independence and restle.a activity It will probably l>e Mr. Watson’s fate j during life to meet biller antagon Ism and personal enmity among hi. own people, nnd he who above all I else would prize the undivided, heart j felt appreciation of nil his people, ; will go through life encountering vio lent opposition and the harshest and ~ftnn unjust criticism Only when ' id. llfework shall be ended, when the active brain .hall have eesHed to j think and the bu.y hands ho stopped i by death, when he shall have ceased to he an active force In Ihe great i drama of life, w ill li he pnsalhlo for 1 nil men to do full Justice to his j work. And then will Georgians agree -a. they cannot do now. that among | ihe many illustrious sotis of this grand old slate Thomas E. Watson ; was one of Ihe gronteat. On one thing all will agree now, and that la the wonderful amount of work of whlrh ha la capable. Kor two year* he ha* Pent piihllahlng a weekly paper iffWl a monthly maga zine, doing on them not only all the editorial work, hut personally look ing after the many wearisome details of Ihe business management. This would *oam to lie work enough for one man, and there Hre few who would be willing lo shoulder ao much. But In addition he ban been for month* conducting a political cam paign. making speeches atmoat daily all over the atate, traveling thou* and* of mile* to reach the varlou* | counties, aud all this iitne conducting the extensive corre»pond«uce Incident to the management of a national campaign. In addition to ihla he has ! very extensive farming lnlereata, with I which he keep* In closest touch and which he direct* personally.

It I* the Amertcua Times Recorder whlrh make* the above suggestion Untended Ynerely to be taken at a wit tlclaiu or at moat a* a sarcastic fling at a fictitious Incident. It eonialn* lood for reflection There are criminal* and iindealr- I able* In every country and In every state of our country What to do with thl* class concern* only the peo ple of each respective country |t t* a question which they niuat settle as [with the light* Pviotv thviu aud Ure conditions which surround them it. may appear best for their country. In our state, and In the South gener ally, not only have we criminals and iundesirables aa every other country has them, but this difficulty is in creased by the presence among us of a race which is morally so undevel oped that a very large part of It be longs to the class of criminals and undesirables. This makes the prob lem of what to do with this class one of greater magnitude and Increased difficulty for our state. If the plan could be adopted of sending our negro criminals and un desirables to Boston a double good purpose would be served: We would get rid of them, and our New Eng land friends, In actual touch with a problem on which their views arc at such variance from ours and concern ing which they find so much to con demn in us, would soon find that our practical knowledge of the negro and his ways was more correct than their theoretical notion, and with the white people of the whole country agreed the solution of the race problem would he easy to find Hut we cannot send this class to Boston, for the all suf ficient reason that Boston would not retail ve It. However, If Boston win not have them, is then- no other place to which they could be sent? Sending this class of undesirables to any other place would serve every purpose as well as to send them to Boston, ex cept that In such case the educational effect which this deportation would exercise upon Boston would bo lost. If a place could be found to which these undesirables could be deported, where they would he segregated and front which they could not escape, would it not be the wisest course to pursue? Crime and vice is reproductive. By heredity, association and the environ ment it creates, crime and vice per petuates itself and tends to Increase. In dealing with crime the penalty im posed on convicted criminals is not only Intended as a punishment to them, but more to protect society against, repetition of these crimes. Could this purpose be effected better titan by deportation? As a mode of punishment it would bo the most hu mane that could be imposed, and as a plan for ridding Ihe state of lndeslr ables and preventing the reproduction of criminals It would be the best. If this he admitted the only ques tion would be to find a place for the location of ronvlrt colonies. This should not he a difficult matter, so long as there are Islands in the sea which arc of little or no service to the cause of civilization under pro# ent conditions. The places for the establishment of penal colonies could bo easily found. What Is needed is a concensus of opinion that this dis position of the criminal and undesir able classes is best. A NEW FLYING MACHINE. Orville Wright Is stretched upon Ills bed, from whlrh the doctors say that he cannot rise in less than two months because the Injuries he re reived in the fall of his airship wero / more serious than at first believed; and the daisies are beginning to grow above blent. Selfridge's grave. But the building of airship# goes on with out Interruption. In France Wilbur Wright has been commissioned to build fifty alrshlpß after the Wright pattern, and In our country the final preparations are being made for the trial of a new airship of Improved design. Its Inventor Is Mr A. M. Herring, who la under contract to deliver to the Federal government a heavier than air flying machine on October lit. The machine has been built and l ■ the flnal touche, are now being glvep It at the inventor's shop in New York. , its trial flight Is to he made at Fori Myer, according to present plans. The Herring machine differs con ' slderatdy front that of the Wright brother. It weighs only 200 pounds, I including two motors, The weight of the Farmsn machine is 1,150 pounds and the Wright machine 830. Mr Herring uses two mol ora with a j combined weight of 89 pounds. These motors, the lightes; ever mnnulactur ed. develop a 22 horsepower. Should one become disabled the other would have sufficient (tower to maintain the machine in flight. The plant's are adjuatahle, accord ing to the number of passenger* and ;the speed desired to attain When used for one passenger a width of IK feet la assumed, and 24 feq| for two. The two fly wheels of tfie en gtne are shout IS Inche* in diameter and weigh only one gnd a half pounds each. Ihe Herring machine Is calculated to develop a speed ot 45 miles an hour and to require a speed of 24 to start. The prominent feature Is Its automatic eqiillihrtxlng device* (nr braving all conditions of winds. It la made so that a wind guat cor rect* It* own disturbing element and I does It more quickly than a man can think This la accomplished by a new method which is based upon the fact that the air In flowing over I curved surfaces possesses very great 'gyroscopic powers.

The Savannah Press has already alluded to the political article of Mr. Henry Litchfield West in The Forum. At the opening of the campaign Mr. West gave strong reasons why Bryan would he a formidable candidate for Prebident. In the October Forum, just to hand, Mr. West virtually con cedes that the chances favor the elec tion of the Democratic candidate for President. Indeed, throughout his articles during the last three months Mr. West has pointer/ almost contin ually to Democratic success. He >s a Republican in politics. President Roosevelt appointed him to the posi tion of commissioner of the District of Columbia. And yet Mr. West is bold enough to discern the signs of the time and to write them. Read between the lines, his predictions point to the election of the Democrat ic national ticket. During the past eighteen years, he says. Republican orators have banked on prosperity. Cheerful conditions however, no longer exist. The Repub lican spellbinder cannot dwell upon the prevalence of prosperity. He Is forced to explain the panic of last year. For the first time In a long period the party in power Is on the defensive. Normal conditions have not yet been resumed. Thousands c*f people are out of employment. The Republicans have always defended protection by claiming that it is nec essary to maintain prosperity and to give employment to people. High tariff and prosperity were alluded to as synonymous. Now, however, commercial depression has spread its gloomy wing over the land even when the high tariff is at full tide. Theor etically there ought to be no cessa tion of industry. Manufacturers are protected to the limit. The tariff Is sue can no longer then he invoked on the ground that prosperity and protec tion go hand in hand. For this rea son Mr. West's deductions are true, that today the relations between the Democratic party and the laboring 1 The Campaign Ad. There is no axiom, perhaps, so thor lughly American as "it pays to vertlse,” and there could hardly be anything more typically American than one phase of our political cam paign. We refer to the fact tha>. the republican national committee is f spending part of its funds In adver tising—as significant a tribute as could be paid to the value of printer's Ink. The October magazines con tain four-page advertisements eulo gizing the "candidates of character.’ an alliteration that is catchy, and catchiness Is one of the first aims ol the successful advertising writer. The ads tell in detail what the repub lican party has accomplished, and they declare in bold faced type that "Taft's election insures continued progress.” It would he curious to note —if there were any way of finding out— what effect these advertisements will have on the. average voter; not the hide-hound party man, but the voters who are on the fence, who are real ly desirous of doing their whole duty to their country by voting for the man whom they believe will best serve the interests of the nation. There is a curious sort of frank ness about these advertisements. They cost a good deal of money; that Is evident. In effect, they only reit erate the statements which the cam paign press bureaus are paid to get Into the daily newspapers, only in llte newspapers they do not appear as advertising, but with some show of authority. Another curious phase of I the matter Is that the value of ad I vertlslng depends very largely not ! only on the medium employed, but on the value of the product adver- j Used. A ntan may sell almost any thing- nice ts he but advertises it enough; but If what he has to offer is less than he claimed for It, If his advertisements are not honest, thov are certain not to pay. The peo- ] pie who read the advertisements of ! the republican committee have no means of testing the wares adver tised. Samples are not furntsheu gratis, and there is no coupon attach ment offering people their mone; hack it they are not satisfied. So the advet tlsementg need to be strong If they are to be convincing, because If those who read them are moved by thvqn, and should find themselves d<- celvafi In any way. they have no r«- ! course If they pay the coin ot iielr votes and get little in return, they may he sure that the post of fice department is not going to Issue a train! order against the flrnt doing I the advertising.

On I-abor Day i Mr. Taft was silent, while Mr. Bryan reviewed a procession of thirty thous-1 and workingmen In Chicago and made j three addresses to laboring organiza- ] tions. About the only thing that Mr. j West claims for Judge Taft is the I prestige of President Roosevelt's en dorsement. Whether that is a help or handicap, however, is a very se rious -question. Since Mr. West wrote the article events have trans pired which raise tne presumption thai this is not such prestige as he seems to think In many states the Republicans are disorganized. IB New York they j are "between the devil and the deep sea.” Governor Hughes' administra- j ; tion haß caused fatal division in the ! party.
