(New York Timea.) The Rev. Madison C. Petera is ono it the latest persona mistakenly to Attribute the manifestly unjust treat nent of Leo M. Frank to race prcju itce. This is un.a.r to the state of Georgia and the city of Atlanta. Many esteemed citUens of Atlanta are lews; they occupy in that city high political, social and business positions, rhere bas undoubtedly been, from :imo to time, since the case of Frank icgan to attract general notice, a narked resentment in Oeorgla against ?hat haB seemed to bo organized Jew ah Interference In his behalf. This ls perfectly natural and should not be exaggerated. Frank is a Jew and tho i lends who went early to his support ,vore Jews. He was at the beginning Lhe victim of great outburst of M ^sinuate fury caused by the dis covery of tho body- of the murdered ;irl and a delusion of the police, which has since been wholly dispelled, hat he was a degenerate. His arrest ?va'-, not due to his race and religion. \ny other man similarly placed would rave suffered the same tate. . There had been other crimes of violence in the neighborhood which tad gone unpunished, with the result nnt indignation and apprehension bad >cen aroused. This was a partic ?laily horrible case, strongly moving he sympathies of the community for he victim and inspiring great wrath igalnst her supposed slayer. Within iwo dayB the people of Atlanta were =on\Jinced of Frank's guilt, largely ?ecause of local newspaper rivalry in he sensational treatment of tho case, ind the circulation against him of 'barges of moral delinquencies, since iisproved, which were based on false ?oods that were not used by the prosecution as evidence when his case :ame to trial. When Rabbi Marx, V ho knew him well and esteemed htm lighly, came forward in his behalf. \ hen the members of the local branch )f the B'nai B'rith. of which Frank vas an officer, tried to use their in fluence to change the public senti ment, there was aa outcry against what was characterized as Jewish in erte renee. The friends of Frank in atlanta, despairing of overcoming the inplacable hostility In their environ nent, appealed to their own friends n other states, naturally to those of heir faith. It was no easy task to con vince them that a great injustice had leen done, but their sympathy was at ength manifested. Thereafter, false ales were circulated in Georgia or rast sums of money contributed tar Frank's succor, with tlie Inevitable .csu lt. Thc feeling against Frank, before lis case bad developed to that stage io we ver, was not due to racial pr ej it lice but to that extraordinary con :atenatlon of circumstancse of which is lt seems now to people of all creeds .hroughout the country, he was the nnocent victim. The Atlanta news papers, the judiciary, the bar, the jolice and the people were all .in -olvted In a web of their own. weaving vhlth began with righteous indigna ion caused by an infamous crime and vas strengthened by falsehood and ntsunderstacding. In the clrcum itances, a fair trial for Frank, was ?ut of the question. A monster inlqut y waa imagined and condemned by labile opinion without a hearing, rhe passion of the community cooled n time, but no voice was raised for ".'rank. No nubile man, no lawyer, to newspaper In Georgia was willing o be the first to admit that the state night have made a grave error. It seemed that the honor ot the com nunity and all Its officials were so leeply involved that Frank might lave been hanged to save a state from the disgrace of confessing that t had been persecuting if not a man if assured innocence, - yet one whoso ruilt had nover .been proved, against whom no evidence had been presented that lnordinary circumstances would lave been, regarded . seriously In a court of law. The anti-Jewish feeling, hoverer, ?aa no longer a dangerous element. But aa the Georgia newspapers re frained from discussing the case, per sistently maintaining a policy ot illence.. only faint echoes of the ex citement lt had caused throughout tho country were heard by the people mast closely concerned. Their hostile mood >rev&iied until lsio'y, whoa evidences irate noted. that bel lef ie the gsj*| 3^ j ODDS Al A Great Admirar? Mistake. (New York World.) Lord.Fisher is undoubtedly a great admirai, but one of the bept of rea sons why a great admiral r.hould not be intrusted with naval administra tion even in time of war can be found In the remarks attributed tn the First Sea Lord: What are Cabinets to me? My busi ness ls to kill Germana enough to prevent Germany from winning this war. To kill Germans ls the affair of seamen and so diers. not of parlia ments and cabinets. Therefore I will work with neither Churchill nor Bal four as the head of the admiralty. "To kill Germans" is the immediate affair of seamen and soldiers, but wara that arc carried on by demo cracies are won by governments, by parlamenta and cabinets, in spite of Lord Fisher's theory to the contrary. Civilians are generally better ad miralty and better army over-admin istrators than sailors and soldiers, although sailors and soldiers seldom think so. We know from our own Civil War experience that Grant would have been an abject failure In Stanton's of fice, and that Farragut would have rendered a sorry service as secretary ot the navy. Kitchener would prob ably have served Great Britain much better In the field than in the war of fice, and Lord Fisher on the bridge of a dreadnought might have been more helpful than ho bas been in the admiralty. The place to "kill Ger mans" is at the front where the Ger mans are. Most Primitive Baee. (The London Standard.) The "North Pole natives" alluded to by Captain Amundsen in a recent lecture were discovered by him while he was navigating his little craft, the Gjoa, through the Northwest Passage In 1903-07. He christened them "Nechllll," and considered them to be the most primitive race on earth. No white man had ever before invaded their Icy fastnesses. Consequently they were ignorant of the use of iron. Their fishing implements were long spears, fashioned out of . reindeer horn. . They knew no other method of procuring Aro than that of rubbing two pieces of wood together. They were, in short, still In the stage of civilization reached by our ancestors of thc Stone Age. So cut off were they from otherB of their kind that Uley imagined their tribe was the only one In the world, and displayed the utmost astonishment when told of populous countries far to the rSonth, where neither ire nor show 'was. The Gjoa and her crew they thought to have dropped from the moon, and the first Nechllll io come aboard the deck masts, boats, oars, all the wuile whispering to one another In amaze ment: "How much wood there is in the moon-bow very much!" Snakes Win Her Divorce. (The Indianapolis Star. Testimony that a box containing about forty-Uve. squirlmlng, twisting, wriggling snakes was placed In the sitting room of the home of Mrs. Grace George hy a sister of her hus band, Pern George, now said to be tn Chicago, obtained a divorce for her in superior court, Mrs. George alleged her husband was guilty of cruel treat ment. Mrs..George, in her testimony, did not mention the snskes. but her mother did not hesitate to tell about them. Her son-in-law. She said, told ber that hts sister had arrived at his bouse to spend the winter, accom panied by. her pet snakes. There were about forty of the reptiles. Judge Clifford said that snakes might constitute an element of cruel ty if bept about the house,' and he thought that with the other tostl money to the effect that George had struck his wife and had a habit of breaking the dishes, constituted grounds for a divorce. Frank was weakening. There is now a growing conviction that he is guilt less. Passion has largely subsided and people are beginning fearlessly lo speak their own minds, after con sidering the case to the cool light of reason, lt is a mistake to attribute the cruel exporter .* or Frank to racial prejudice. That has only been an incidental feature ot the strangest ease of Its kind in cur history. sJD ENDS The Paradox. (The State.) The measure of .the dlfferenoe'j'Jt tween the destruction of the.'Kvitlsh battleship. "Triumph" and the" ' Wrl*-* lah merchant ship "Lusitania". hV the difference between war and murder. How singular it ls that a naval power capable of a feat so gallant and audacious ad the torpedoing of a battleship surrounded and pro tected by numerous other lighting ships in the narrow Dardanelles can be guilty of sinking without warning a defenceless ship bearing defence less women and children. How strange that a naval power so effective in action ls so impotent to defend its good name and honor! How remarkable that Grand Admiral von Tlrpitz is blind to the truth that his submarines can not torpedo the Sixth Commandment! The Human Tonen. (Atlanta Constitution.) The world optimists are sometimes rewarded with a glimpse of the brighter side of wai , and instances of sunlight in th? storm-of the human touch in the inhuman Btrlfe-are not uncommon. The indianapolis News Ands evidence of this brighter side in a receat story from the trenches-tho story of a song, as reported in L'Illus tration of Paris. "A French general in the forest ot Argonne told a junior officer that he wanted a snapshot of the German trenches. The line of trenches was but 20 yards away. As he was ar ranging his camera he chanced to whistle the air of a popular German song, of which two lines, translated, ire as follows: "'In the valley below. Ab, how glorious it is there!' "Then from the German trench op posite .came the concluding couplet, whislted in the same key: "'Ah, it ls so glorious there. With the huntsmen I would be!'" The story says that five Germans, with their head-, above the trench, were singing and, looking at the man with tho camera, they called ont, "Good morning, comrade!" And the salutation met with beert*, response from ? the French side, and then they withdrew, to walt and watch for signals to blur the bright ness of that "Good morning" with. -bulleta! But the smoke of battle can not dun thc home lights that shine down on the trenches; the human touch ls felt there in all the strength of brotb erhood What the War Game Teaches. (News and Courier.) It Is Impossible for the man -with out technical knowledge to under-? stand In detail the significance of the war game which has just been con cluded by the Atlantic beet The pub lic will observe with some misgivings, however, that the war game resulted In the success of the Invaders. Theoretcally the enemy fleet succeed-* ed In worsting a portion of the de fending fleet which came In contact with lt sad then proceeded to seise ? base and land troops In the neigh borhood of Chesapeake Pny. If the war game is worth anything at all, this theoretical success of a theoretical enemy must be of some practical significance. It Is Interest ing to note that the failure of the defending fleet is attributed largely to Ita deficiency in speedy scouts and to Ita lack ot powerful armored vee? sels of high speed. The Invading fleet succeeded In ita obpect- because lt bad plenty of fast scouts which kept lt fully advised of the defend ers* movements and because it had plenty of swift and powerful battle? cruisers which were able to eludo the slower dreadnoughts of the defender? If the naval authorities had delib erately designed and carried out the war game in order to make lt an argr neut for the building of scout cruiser* an? battle-cruisers, they could not have demonstrated more Impressively the need of adding ves sels of these types to the navy.
