AUGUSTA AS THE FAVORITE WINTER TOURIST RESORT.
Augusta today stands as the recognized favorite tourist resort In
the southern states. The three great tourist hotels which look down
upon the city from the surrounding hills are filled to their capacity, the
smaller hotels are filled, and an increased number of wintej residents
occupy their own cottages which tnev have bought or built for their
winter occupancy. So great. Is the tide of this winter tourist travel to
our city tt.v another great hotel has become a necessity, for unless
another be added It. Is certain that next season there will not be ac
commodations for all who shall apply.
H has tak'-n a long lime for the people of the north to find out
the advantages Augusta possessed, as a winter resort. Some twenty
yearn ago the first tourist hotel was built, and It. is from this, through
the guests who found it, that the lame of Augusta as a winter resort
has spread, in ever widening circles, until now only her capacity to
provide accommodations for guests can prescribe the limit of this mi
gration.
Although the tourist season Is yet far from being ended, already
has Augusta had more of the notables of the country as her guests than
any other place In the country. President-elect Taft, when making in
qulrles among his friends as to the beat winter resort In the country,
was advised to come to Augusta. On their advice he came, and he
spent several weeks with such eminently satisfactory results that, he
felt most thankful to the friends who Jiad advised hiru to come. His
coming brought many others, who came primarily to see him, but who
one and all had a pleasant time. But all this was merely an* incident
of the tourist season. There are many who had already learned what.
Mr Taft Inquired of his friends to find out, and they have come; and
with almost each of these who have become regular winter visitors
have come friends who are spending their first, winter here. And all
are pleased, and will come again succeeding winters.
And why shouldn't they do this? Everything that a winter tour
ist seeks may be found at Its best in and around Augusta.
Is It a delightful winter climate they ask? What could be finer
in the way of winter weather than ours? WhUe from tho north come
harrowing stories of hardship and distress caused by snow and Ice, the
roses have bloomed continuously In our gardens. During Mr. Taft’s
six weeks slay there was not a single day when the weather prevented
dim from playing golf. The weather has been almost ideal, cool
enough to tie bracing, warm enough to feel no chill. Even the
grent blizzard which swept almost the entire country became only a
slight drizzly rain of short duration when It struck Augusta.
Is It health the tourist* seek? Where could they find conditions
more favorable than hero? The soli an open porous sand which holds
no surface water, tho ozone air laden with the balmy breath of the
pines, with outdoor life and exercise inviting and pleasant, It would be
Impossible lo find a place anywhere In the world where health condi
tions combined to favor the health seeker as they do here.
Is It pleasure that Is their quest? Then where could they hope to
find It In greater measure than here In and around Augusta. The golf
links lire unexcelled by uny other in the country, and it Is golf which
m tin* great American outdoor winter game. The roads of Richmond
county are among the ilnest in tho country-—only a low days ago a gov
ernment expert on a tour of inspection pronounced them so. Automo
hillng has become the favorite recreation to those who can afford it,
and not a few of tho tourist* carry their automobiles with them on
thf 'r tour. But what good are tho, best aud most costly automobiles
where the roads are bud? Around Augusta are miles of splendid ce
ment gravel roads, than which thero are no bettor. Then, too, Augus
ta Is an attractive city. It offers all the advantages for pleasure seek
ing which a cultured city can give, and which Is totally lacking In iso
lated resorts.
And if It U a kindly welcome, and generous, considerate hospitality
that the tourists seek, again where can they lltvd it better than in Au
gusta. Without one single dlesent, this has been the unanimous ver
dict of all who have come. In Augusta the tourist is assured of a
hearty welcome. There will be no effort on (he part of anyone to in
trude upon him, nor to seek to exploit him. To whatever extent he may
desire he may go his own way, or mix and mingle with our people and
meet with a hearty reception.
It has required many yenrs for the tourists to learn all this about
Augusta, but they have learned it. It will bring them to Augusta In In
creasing numbers each succeeding season. They will always bo wel
come. More than that, they will find Augusta's attractions improved
from year to year. Not the climate, for that is the gift of God, perfect
ns nil His gifts, to remain tho same as He has made It to bless the
glorious Southland. But tn all thnt man can do will there be con
stant Improvement. There will be more hotels, and the greater tho
number of visitors the more pleasant It will be for all. There will be
more and longer good roads, which will make Augusta the great winter
automobile resort. And there will be Increased attractions in the city
specially to meet the wants and to please the winter tourists.
It gives genulue satisfaction to Augustans to know that all of the
many tourists who have come here this winter have been so well
pleased. And they may rest assured that a welcome awaits them next
winter when they shall return, and bring others of thotr friends with
them.
THE BPEED OF MOTORCYCLES.
Some people are natural grumblers
«uid complolners. They ari> never so
happy ns when they o«n oomplain and
protest and kick against something.
Some ot these good people are now
rnisln objections to the lnotoroyeles
and dentaud that council subject them
to H speed limit just as It docs auto
mobiles.
Quite many of our bovg and young
men have equipped themselves with
those vehloles. They are prond of
them and love to ride thorn, though
why they should be Is hard to un
derstand The notao they make Is
nerve racking and the ride they sup
ply Is about as far from comfortable
as anything could well be. Still, that
Is nobody's concern but the riders',
and as*they seem to like It at least
so long as this style of riding Is a
fad, why let them alone. Boys will
be boys, and they could do thing* far
worse than riding these uncomtort
ahlo machines.
And why should they bo speed lim
ited by law’ This Is necessary to r
automobiles because these are noise
less. high powered, large, and often
driven by chauffeurs who are reckless
and lacking in sense. Tor this rea
son It Is necessary to prescribe a
speed limit for them on our streets.
Hut autocvcles are different By their
construction they are limited as to
speed. Besides they arc small and
light, and for this reason not so dan
gerous. And above all, they make
such a terrible racket that alrnoat a
deaf person would be warned of their
approach before they canto within a
hundred yards of hint.
Some, of the boys may try so ruu
them • little too fast aometimes, and
thus endanger themselves, but tkt*
will happen rarely. Besides this they
are no menace on the streets to any
rue, that would be removed by mak-
ing a apead limit law in regard to
them.
It Is bad policy to pass a law which
Is not needed —wo have too many
laws anyhow'. Let the motorcyclists
alone; such speed as they can make
is In no wise a menace to the in
nocent bystander.
Growing Roll of Suicide.
Statistics of suicides are rather
startling when considered in a lump
sum. The average reader of a news
paper notes a suicide only now and
then, yet according to the Chicago
Tribune, the total number of suicides
recorded In the public press of the
United States during the year 1908
was 10.853, an average of almost 30
each day. The sutetde roll of the
last 10 years has sprung up bv fre
quent big leaps. In 1599, in the
United States 5.340 persons killed
themselves. The record of show
ed Increase of nearly 1,500, and
so It goes upward, each year show
ing an increase over that preceding
—an Increase wholly out of propor
tion to the growth of population.
While our population has lnoreased
10 per cent or alight ly more, self
destruction has Increased nearly 100
per cent.
Business depression llgures as th>
most prolific cause of suicide, while
domestic Infelicity and disappoint
ments In love, generally looked upon
as one of the foremost causes of self
destruction, figured In less than 1,300

THE AUGUSTA HERALD
SPEAKING OF EMBARGO RAISING
Isn’t It About Time For Railroads To Raise
Embargo Against Proper Service?
Discussing the subject of embargo
raising, to which Mr. Harriman inter
estlnglv referred In his Augusta re
marks, it would not come amiss if
the railroads generally, and some of
them in particular, should act upon
the realization that there is a little
of it to be done on their side of the
fence.
While profiting by a more generous
public feeling toward them and seek
ing still further concessions, there
are certain directions in which they
persist in maintaining an embargo, in
effect, agaist sufficient and adequate
public service.
Particularly is this true in the mat
ter of inexcusable and persistent de
parture from advertised schedules —
a violation, in a measure, of a con
tract with the public.
Day after day, for example, some
times with a regularity that seems
designed, the Southern railway’s
through train bringing mall and pas
sengers from tho entire western ter
ritory, also locajly from Georgia,
reaches south Georgia and Florida
two to three hours or more behind Its
schedule time, missing its western
and eastern connections throughout
the state and causing a delay of
twelve to twenty-four hours In the
arrival of mail and passengers at
their destinations.
Everybody knows that the carriers
on rural mail routes leave their of-
Two New States.
Indications are that even in the
hurry of this short session congress
will admit Arizona and New Mexico
to statehood, the senate leaders hav
ing withdrawn their opposition and
the house standing ready at any time
to enact a measure that will be sat
isfactory to the senate. Although he
was one of the most stubborn oppon
ents of the statehood measure in the
last congress, Speaker Cannon iB
said to have guaranteed the right-of
way for statehood and it is now ex
pected that President Roosevelt will
be authorized, before March 4, to Is
sue a proclamation calling elections
in those two territories, preparatory
to final admission to full and sepa
rate statehood into the Union of Am
erican commonwealths.
There seems to be no just reason
for further delay In the admission of
the two territories. They now have
the size, natural advantages aud
population to warrant their admis
sion, and the outlook is promising in
both territories. Both are already
considerably ahead of some of the
states in population, wealth and im
portance and their future is not
doubtful. The territorial form of gov
ernment, a makeshift at best, has
hampered the development of both
Arizona and New Mexico, but both
have grown and prospered and are
assured of greater and more rapid
rapid development under the rights of
statehood, for which they have fought
so long.—Omaha Bee.
Reconquering Cuba.
Instead of American capital and
American business men and methods
annexing the Island economically to
the United States, it looks to the Im
partial observer as If the ancient
ties of blood were proving stronger
than the lure of material interests,
not only is the island not becoming
Americanized, hut, as a matter of
fact, the Spaniard has greater com
mercial influence In Cuba today than
ever before. For every American
on the island there are 20 Spaniards,
and the disparity is rapidly increas
ing in favor of the Spaniard. Prac
tically the entire internal commerce
and retail business of the island is
In the hands of Spaniards, and pit
ted against their conservative, Old
World methods the hustle and tradi
tional push of the Americans find
themselves halted by a" dead wall of
prejudice and unyielding conservat
ism.—Washington Post.

I flees in the early morning hours, so
that, when the mail intended for these
routes is a few hours late or misses
it cannot be delivered

The Southern railway is not alone
in this defection. Georgia and other
states of the south, considering mod
ern facilities, are suffering from per
haps - the poorest and least effective
mail and passenger service to be
I found in any section of the country.
It is an injustice and an outrage
upon a large population covering one
of the most important business sec
tions of this state.
There is a splendid opportunity
here for the railroads to do a little
i embargo raising on their side of the
line.
The people have manifested a will
ingness to go to the fullest extent
that will accord with reason and jus
tice to enable the railroads to give
them adequate and satisfactory ser
vice, but that they are entitled to
and that they mean to have.
A mutual spirit of give and take

Varieties of the Handshake.
William Stirling, professor of phy
siology and histology and dean of the
faculty of medicine in the Victoria
University of Manchester, has been
lecturing for children this month on
“The Wheel of Life” at the Royal
Institution, London. Under the title
of "Sentinels and Citadels” the learn
ed Scot spoke of the skin and of its
capability of giving sensations. To
illustrate he referred to the hand
shake.
Like the degrees of the lie enu
merated by Shakespeare, “there are
nearly as many kinds of handshake
as there are kinds of man. There
is the hearty shake, the sympathetic
shake, the formal shake, the two
finger shake and the thistle-down
shake at the height of the shoulder.”
After this enumeration Prof. Stir
ling described hands. “There is the
cold hand and there is the hot hand
the hand that is moigt and clammy,
the hand that is more like a flipper
than an organ of prehension. There
is the tender pressure, the vigorous
squeeze and the frigid extension, as
if one were submitting to a painful
operation.”
There is no campaign on at present
in New York, but when there is the
handshaker is likely to find Prof.
Stirling’s advice of 1 value. It is of
present, everyday value to business
men. Sweethearts, of course, will
not believe it, but the learned profes
sor says “a handshake is infinitely
preferable as a greeting" to “promis
cuous kissing.”—New York World.

EXPERT TESTIMONY.
By C. B. Quincy.
The effort to make the employment
of expert testimony a uniform affair
and to reduce the testimony itself to
a monotonous no-partisan level is a
base blow at one of our unique and
marvellous institutions.
When the defense in some case
asks in 20,000 words or so a hypo
thetical question, something like this:
"Suppose a man whose grand
father's first cousin, suffered from
toothache Is brought up on a farm
where he has to eat pumpkin three
times a day, and is subsequently taken
to Chlburg, where he becomes accus
tomed to drinking a mixture of cham
pagne and buttermilk before breakfast
and frequently expresses to his frend
a belief that water melons are dan
gerous animals to leave unchained,
and a very near relative tells him
that an enemy of his has said publicly
that he wears green socks, in what
condition, in your opinion, would he
be?”
—the expert would reply:
“In my opinion he would not be in
a condition to realize the consequence
of any act that he might perform
while under the influence of the story
told him.”
"Would he realize that he was shoot
ing another person?”
“No; he would be suffering from
impulsive emotional static-depressive
insanity, and would probably think
that he was doing the victim a favor”
On cross-examination the witness
would admit that he never saw an
impulsive emotional static-depressed
person who wore green socks, but he
