HBARN V Kditor : .id Publisher. ^ THOSE GEORGIA DEMOCRATS 1 The Georgia Democracy for I ^ several years has had o|c chronic case of political appendicitis, according to The Augusta Chronicle. At the recent meet- ^ 1 ing of the Democratic State Con- . , vention in Atlanta it was decided . i mat surgical operation was ne cessary and the vermiform ap pendix was cut out. In other words, Tom Watson, who has . been fighting both State and National Democracy inside the par ly for a number of years, was read out of the party. The inlluonce of the staunch old Democratic Augusta Chronicle, had much to do in bringing about this result. It is to be hoped Georgia Democracy may entirely recover from the effect of the disease that has long preyed upon her vitals, now that the appendix has been removed. May she live long aud prosper. And may the premium on lynching be abolished along with the appendix. Santee, Wateree aud Congaree got an appropriation from Congress with all ease. All "e"s. Seel The Louisville Courier-Journal boils down Senator Hoots long speech into three hues. "The Republican party wants to re-, turn to power at uuy price." Members of the Oklahoma legislature got into a free-for-all tight using inkstands fur weapons. One was rendered unconscious in the melee. t After May 1st liquor canuot be advertised iu Georgia in newspapers, periodicals or bill boards. Now if lynching could P be eliminated in Georgia as easi? ly, how happy she would be! I The Republicans iu an effort o | to make an issue to defeat the f\ Democrats talk at random aud rj talk wildly. For instance, some . of them say we ought to tight Mexico and we ought to fight _ Germany and in the next breath PS they say "we have no army. 9 "We have no navy." Oh, "such Iinccnglomerations," as Mrs. Partington would say. The Giles bill, providing for at least thirty days chaingang sen-1 tence for cverv man fnnvict.oj) ??f I (selling liquor in South Carolina, has been signed by Governor Manning and is now the law. There is to be no line. The law sa.ys for the first offense the sen tence shall be six months to two years, and for the second offense SI the penalty is one to five years 5 at discretion of the .Judge. ????????? (Senator Root's speech at the New York Republican State Con ventiou was evidently a bid for the Presidential nomination. Rut as Roosevelt has forestalled that job Root might take second i place. Roosevelt, Root and Ruin would be tho proper slogan for the Republican campaign, or it might he Root hog or die. One of the greatest victories of the Allies is tho capture of Erzerum by the Russians. Era erum is the gateway to Asia. It is the political center of the Armenian people. It will be a threat relief lor the Armenians to be freed from Turkish rule and the military advantage of the victory is very great as it enables the British to cooperate with the Russians and that will settle Turkey's harsh in that quarter. Congress gave South Carolina these appropriations in a rivers and harbor bill; VVingah bay $100,000; Charleston harbor $H0, 000, including the completion of a 2H foot channel to the sea; San tee, VV ate roe and Congaree' rivers ' up^ta^?olumbia, $55,COO Th^Bj^^^Bttli considering the An wnen Hon reached Wash 9HH^HHm^Bxpect to !?j (Jen H Bike AiDOunv for 1 of public Aads J ?here says: "The moment we set sail ro lance leaves our ship and petles on every Sail on the horizon-" Perhaps there is no exporience oore uOiveral to the human race hat the enchantmeut of disance, whether it be of time or daceThe good days are the old days >r else in the distant future. ltarely can one be found to lay, 'These are good days; the vork that I am now doing is deal- and deserves the best that s in me; that which is at hand commands my chief interest." vrv? i? iww iv at'uuiH to us and has| for a long time seemed so, that in no realm of endeavor is this fascination of the distance so strong as in that highest and noblest of all realms of activity, the religious. A dear friend of the editor's was serving a good charge in his native State, Mississippi, but he netds must give up hoind aud friends, leave the black belt of Mississippi aud go to Africa to teach the darkies Another ministerial friend must leave the mountains of Kentucky and travel all the way to India to tind those who needed his ministration. While in New York City only recently our own Methodist Church must take up a collection and iill barrels with provisions and clothiug for the negroes of South Carolina, while white peo\ile were starving and freezing across the street from the church building. And then as we come down to South Carolina we find the foreign missi -nary spirit very much alive arid ever ready to kindle into a llame of enthusiasm and zeal (as it should be), but our own industrial home crying for food and raiment, our orphanage children improperly nourished aud apparently none cares. There are cases in this county crying to heaven for succor, but they are too near to be heard or seen. Our home missions, such as they are, are more interested in Alaska, the far west, in Honoiu la and the Philippines. I Oh, that God would take pity on our own needy cases, antj move them ofT to the horizon Then we would build homes foi the homeless; then we would lift up the falleu and care for the dying. Dr. Oliver Wendell Homes long ago gave currency to the idea that we're all more or less insane each in his own way. Now Prof. T.ew Wallin, of the Psychological Clinic of f t.
