AT RANDOM.

My FELLOW C~ITIZENS-It occurs to me, and
never in any other way occurred to me. but
what the country is safe. | have been writing
rhyme and rot for 10 these many days [ have
wondered why it was that the chief executive
of a natiOn-a man clothed with authority
and one who claimed to dare and dO-shOuld
convene the congress of the nation ia eX-
traOrdinary session and point out to it the
calamities which threatened and the dan
gers which were to be aVerted, and who
turned tail, as We say in France. and left the
congress to run its own boat. But no less have
| wondered, and GOD knows. no less have |
pOndered, upon the subject OF why it is that
men who owe debts will not pay them of why
it is that there is always some '~mOneyless man.
to jump up and crack his heels in the air and
swear that the country has gone to the devil.
The Old Man thought he was serious when he
wrote the above, but the Old Man is bound to
see the humorous and bound to see the ~jocular
side of his friends and of his fellow citizens
whom he is addressing.
And accordingly.
While he would like to state
That the stringency of the times
sf Are awful.
He regrets TO see that CAPT. !. Y. Whitfield
is out to-day in a new hat which, as we take it,
is uff.
zen. B.-CAPTAIN WHITTED, upon cross
examination, admitted with tears in his eyes,
that he bought the hat two years ago for IL
cents. We are willing that it should 60 at that.

# Petitioner complains because the
street was cxcavatcd enough to secure
proper drainage. saying that she ought
not 10 be tnNed with excavations 70 drain
ansiher's land. II this proposition be
true. then us you near the point toward
which drainage IS made, every person
owning property on paved street would
have an edunl right TO complain of his
Deighhur on the same street. but further
away from the point toward which drain-
age Is made. With Equal fore juld the
petitioner complain Of her neighb0r Just

Georgia Highly Honored. ~
From the Richmond Dispatch tDem.).


Georgia has the speaker of the national
House Of Representatives-Rn Office next in
rank TO that of the President of the United
States. She has the chairman of the commit
tee on foreign relations in that House. Also a
place upon the committee of ways and means.
Honors seem to come now as naturally to Geor.
gia as they formerly came to Virginia when
from 1888 u 1924 the Old Dominion furnished a
large number of the officials of the country and
all but one Of the Presidents of the United
States. By the way, if Virginia is to furnish no
more Presidents TO the country until her turn
comes, she will have to wait several hundred
years We are glad that Georgia deserves
10 be so highly honored. We make
these remarks apropos of the scene
in the House of Representatives last
Saturday when Mr.. Blount Of Georgia was hon
ored as no representative in congress from any
other state has ever been honored. And we can
well believe that Mr. Blount regards it, as he
said he did. as the highest honor which had
ever come to him. We happened to write par.
agraph on Saturday in which we claimed that
great men were always forthcoming when they
were needed. We cite the case of Mr.. Blount
not to claim that he is one of the great men we
had IN mind, but to illustrate the fact that as
there were great men before Agamem-
non, 80 there are men now living
whose constituents and congressional
associates regard as great men, whom
the masses Of the people have never so much
as heard Of, but who have within them the
making" OF great men.

The first annual dinner OF the board of
trade last night marked the beginning OF a
greater influence on the part OF that insti-
tuition in the business and industrial life Of
this city. Only lately it began TO broaden
its sphere OF usefulness. After It got into
its magnificent new home it began TO take
in new members, many Of whom have
large part in the enterprises which are COZ
nected with the city's proZre 8, and oil of
whom are profoundly interested IN the city's
prosperity.
The board Of trade is going to be far more
helpful TO Savannah in the future than 1t
has been in the past. It is far greater in
stitution now than ever before. 1t win
help TO make better known the city's re-
sources and advantages, and will be pow
erful factor in the establishment OF new
business enterprises and Industrial under
takings.
The belief ia strong that Savannah IS
about entering upon a broader business and
commercial activity. Within year she
will have another great railroad to the north
and TO Florida ana also, in all probability,
line Of steamships to Europe. The speeches
at the banquet last night leave little room
for doubt that she will be the chosen South
Atlantic port for direct trade between the
south and Europe. These additional trans
portation facilities will bring her an i'm
mense increase in business and encourage the
establishment of industries. It can be
readily seen. therefore, how great the OPP
portunIties of the board of trade will be
to be helpful to the city. And there is no
doubt that the most will be made Of the op-
portunities. Capt. Purse, the president Of
the board, is progressive and aggressive.
What ever the board can do to stimulate the
city'scommeroe, promote the city's growth
and advance the city's interests will be
done. 1t is safe to predict that it will be
possible to make a report at each annual
dinner of the hoard Of the city's progress
and prosperity that will be q source of
pleasure and pride to all who are interested
In the city's welfare.

Rsnid Transit.

Edgar Wade Abbot in Clristton Union.
The first train leaves at D. m.
For the land where the poppy blows;
The mother dear is the engineer,
And the passenger laughs and crows,
The palace car is the mothers arms;
The whistle, a low sweet strain;
The passenger winks, and mods, and blinks,
And goes to sleep IN the train!
At p. N. the next train starts
For the Poppy land afar;
The summons clear falls on the ear;
IAN aboard for the sleeping carr
But what is the fare to Poppy land?
hope it is not too dear.
The fare is this a hug and kiss,
And It's paid to the engineer!
So ask of him who children took
On his knee in kindness great;
Take charge, pray, Of the trains each day
That leave at and g.
keep watch of the passengers" thus I pray
For to me they are very dear,
And special ward, o, gracious Lord,
Ger the gentle engineer"
