From the Washington Post Qnd)


The pass question, that chronic Attic
ton of local statesmen, is now before the
Georgia legislature. There are good rea-
sons why this bill should be passed and
why all the states that have not already
done so should put such a law on their
statute books and see to its enforcement
If there be any reason why such laws
should not be passed and enforced, we
have failed TO find it. Corporations are
the creatures of the state. They are sub
jects OF legislation and litigation There
fore all the officials of the state all who
make. execute. or interpret the laws,
should be free IRON obligations to corpora
lions. When a corporation goes or is
brought into a legislature or a court eth
err for faVors or in defense of its interests.
it should not face officials who are or have
been the recipients of its favors This is
but common justice the application of a
principle that has been recognized in juris-
prudence for centuries all over the civiliz-
ed world. And it is due 20 the corpora
lions that they should be relieved of the
burden Of free passes. 1t is true that they
could refuse to grant faVors TO legislators
and other officials. but so long as favors
are expected of them they will for OBJ
vious reasons, hand them out. The bust
ness has come TO be sort of genteel
Matchmaking.

The Georgia Legislature was forced to
suspend business on Saturday because of
the lack of a quorum of members. Pos
siby the passage of Mr.. Halls anti-free
pass bill would put a stop TO that sort
of thing If the members had not free
railroad passes in their pockets they
would not be running away from the cap
ttal al every whip-stiteh, and thus de-
laying the public business. If they had
10 pay their fare out of their own pock-
cts. they would stay in Atlanta until the
business Of the session had been COM
pleted Furthermore, without free passes
and consequent absenteeism, the duration
of the sessions might be considerably
shortened. There might not be opposition
70 biennial sessions on the part of poll
ceans who like to meet in Atlanta once
every year."

Several days ago Mr. Calvin of Rich
mond county introduced a bill to create
state board of embalmers, or something
of the sort, on the ground that public
health demanded it. We have never heard
of any such demand. Embalmiug is sell
dom practiced outside of populous commu-
mites, and in such communities there are
municipal regulations, which. enforced,
would seem TO be adequate 10 all neces-
stiles. About the most noticeable effect
that the bill in practice would have as
far as we can see, would be to make il
more costly for person to die; and even
now that is one of the most expensive
things that one can do. The bill will prob
ably be consigned dust to dust" in a
pigeon hole.

The Baltimore American says that mod
ern negro songs do not by any means rep
resent the negro race" How could they
do so, when they are all written by white
persons? However, the songs come much
nearer 10 being representative of the ne
gro than do the vast majority of the i'm
presentations of negro character which are
seen on the stage, by white persons born
and bred in Northern cities, where the
natural negro character is unknown.

There seems to be no good reason, as far
as we can see, why the bill of Mr.. Sloan
of Hall county, to admit women to the
practice of law upon the same terms as
men, should not be passed. In various
other states women are admitted to the
bar; and so far as the advices go they
have shown themselves to be earnest and
able practitioners We do not recall a sin
gle instance in which a woman lawyer
has ever disgraced her profession; which
cannot be said of the other sex.

The lawlessness which Is reported in
Porto Rico and cuba is hardly more than
might have been expected in populous
countries undergoing a radical change of
government, involving the upsetting of
centuries of rules and presidents. 1t viii
naturally take some time to get the two
islands INTO smoothly working order again;
and the United States viii be Obliged TO
maintain troops there until that end has
been reached. The probabilities are, there
fore, that the uniforms of Uncle Sans
boys will be familiar IN the islands for
two or three years TO come.

The bill introduced into the Georgia Leg
islature the other day TO suppress mob
violence" by giving the heirs at law OF
the victim of a lynehing the right to re
cover pecuniary damages through the
courts, is an illustration of the commend
able spirit against lynch law in this state
Al the same time, the proposed legisla-
ton would be inadequate to achieving the
end proposed. Ii would be just as much
an impossibility to secure a verdict in
damages favorable to the heirs of the
lynched person as it now is to secure evil
dence and a verdict against lynchers.

Minnesota two years ago gave Mckinley
5000 plurality In the recent election
Minnesota elected John Lind Democrat
to the Office of Governor by a plurality Of
nearly $4,000 No other Democrat, how
ever, was excited in che ticket with Lind.
What is the explanation? Not that there
was, landslide in favor of a Democrat
for Governor. bur Lind was born in Nor
way and Minnesota has a very large
Scandinavian element of population. In
other words, Lind is a Scandinavian and
the Scandinaviaus of the state voted for
him. While II is gratifying to know that
a Democrat was elected in a Republican
state, ct the same time this thing Of for
eign-born citizens voting for a foreign
born citizen for office in the United States
for no other reason than that he is a for
eign-born, is un-American and not to be
commended. When Norwegian, or Ger
man, or an Englshman becomes a citizen
of this country, he should be a citizen
without prefix or qualification. Nationality
should not be injected into politics. There
should be no such things as "Scandina-
Wan Americans" German Americans"
"Irish-American, and the like. All citi-
zens of this great country should be only
Americans" and cast their votes accord
ing to the dictates of their consciences.

Some time ago there died in New York
a man named Joseph Richardson, ia
nous for having built a Spite house"
for his penuriousness and for his suppos-
ed immense wealth. 1t was said at the
time of his death that the estate would
easily be worth $30,OOO0OO. 1t appears from
late information received by the surrogate
that probably six noughts will have to
be knocked off the value of the estate,
and maybe the seventh one also by the
time the debts of the old man have been
paid. This, however, is merely another
case of overestimating riches possessed by
persons about whom very little is known.

Not very long ago young man by
the name Of Waverly Sarrar, giving
bis home at Union Level, Va, was
struck by train at King station,
three miles east of this place, and
was severely injured. lie was taken
to the home of Mr.. M. L. Ellifritz,
where he was cared for and nursed
back to health, and able to go again.
Mr.. Ellifritz had made no charge for
his keeping and care and the company
physician for the mines had given
him attention without charge
through sympathy to the unfortunate
man. A few days ago Sarrar conclud-
ed that he would make start again.
