Morgan county, which is in the center of
the barbecue region of Georgia. is about to
set an example that ought to be followed by
every county in the state-or at least by as
many as feel able to make a creditable
showing. Morgan is making arrangements
to hold colt show, and the exhibition viii
take place next month.
1t Is 10 be strictly a home affair. None
but colts foaled in the county win be per-
mitted to compete for the premiums to be
offered. The premiums viii be liberal, it Is
said, and the colts of various ages that
carry oil the prizes viii have to be very
zine indeed.
This movement in Morgan ought to be a
hint for Putnam, whore some of the finest
colts to be found in the country are raised.
The line that divides Morgan from Putnam
is purely an imaginary one. Both counties
have the same water, the same grasses, and
the same evidences of healthy progress;

The signal service Waking Up.

After letting the recent cyclone steal a
march on it, the signal service has kept its
eyes wide open, with the determination not
to be caught mapping again.
The observer at Key West has notified
points along the gulf coast that there is a
cyclone storm of moderate energy south
west Of Havana, moving in a northwesterly
direction.
This gulf hurricane may follow the course
of its predecessor, or it may sharply re.
curve, leave the gulf and follow the Allan,
tic coast up to Hatteras. If it makes itself
felt in this locality it will probably be in
the shape of rainfall.

a Squad Of Toolish Yirgins.

The young ladies of Chicago propose to
add picturesque feature to the campaign.
A Harrison and Morton club has been
organized, with membership of 500 maid
ems, and the organization will soon give a
magnificent pageant and parade. The
spectacle will be as attractive as it will be
novel. Five hundred pretty girls, dressed
in red caps, white waists, tri-colored sashes,
short blue skirts and white leggings, will
march through the streets with all the pre-
cision of Zouayes, and with the enthusiasm
of new recruits.
We have said that it will be picturesque
affair. It will also be silly demonstration,
and the foolish virgins who participate in it
will be subjected to criticisms that will
make their ears Jingle.
Undoubtedly the young women OF the
land have a right to be interested in the
great political questions of the day. But
they are not expected to organize campaign
clubs and get mixed up in the hurly-burly
Of an election. Their male relatives and
friends viii attend TO the outside work, and
the ladies need not talk politics beyond their
homes, and if they choose to remain silent
on the subject, it will make them all the
more charming. 1t is unnecessary, how
ever, to pursue the matter. The original
and only young ladies' campaign club is not
likely to find imitators outside of Chicago.

THE 'greatest living statesman" says
trusts are private affairs and the govern
ment has no business interfering with them.
The farmers Of Georgia and the south are
having little experience with these private
affairs and will soon be able to give the

governments has been compelled to take the
matter il, hand.
The people of Jacksonville are practically
henH4cd In. Their eyes are turned longing
" 70 the tempting places Of refuge in the
piedmont region, where they would be safe,
| and where they would be kindly received,
but they cannot reach those points without
| breaking through the shotgun Gordon by
which they are surrounded. These wretched
people have committed no crime, and if
they are permitted to 60 to a region where
yellow fever has meyer been known to
spread, they will save their own lives and
injure nobody. The instinct Of self preser-
walton and their desire to help their families
urge them to seek safety in fight, but 1t Is
dangerous for them to attempt to pass
through the terror-strclten towns and viii
lagos in their vicinity. They run the risk,
as soon as they leave Jacksonville, of being
dragged from the cars and made TO return
on foot. If they succeed in entering some
of the towns they are arrested and treated
Ike criminals, and If they push onward
with the courage Of despair, they are at the
mercy of the shotgun Of every frightened
fool along the road.
THIS state Of affairs Is simply indefensI-
bic, and it brings out mans nhumanity to
man In its worst shape, 1t would not be adj
visab,e TO scatter these afflicted people
through the yellow fever belt, where they
would be likely to spread the epidemic, but
the interests Of humanity demand that they
should be allowed to travel without stopping
anywhere until they reach the mountains,
where they cannot be a source Of danger to
anybody,
1t Is to be hoped that some Of the specials
from Jacksonville have exaggerated the con-
ditions prevailing in the neighboring towns,
but if they have correctly stated the facts the
government should take prompt steps to
rescue the people now penned up in the city
from their perilous predicament.
