The address of Mr.. Richard H. Ed
monds before the Southern Cotton
Spinners' Association in Atlanta the
other day ought to have the careful
and friendly thought of those to whom
it was directed. 1t was a plea to give
the poor white boy chance by afford
ing him the opportunity of acquiring a
chronological education-an education
that will fit him to take part in the in
dustrial development of the South that
is going ahead in such promising man
ner. The South is rich in raw mater
ials, but none of them is more prom
ising than that out of which may be
made future engineers, builders, super
intendents. etc.-her white boys.
Through force of circumstances much
of this first-class material cannot be
polished up and finished without out
side aid. The parents of the boys
haven't the means to give them the
education they need.
Mr.. Edmonds submitted a plan by
which several hundred Georgia boys,
he thinks, would be helped to an edu-
cation of the kind referred to. He
would have the railroads, the manu-
featuring establishments and corpora
tions of other kinds take the matter
up and establish scholarships, to be
bestowed after competitive examina-
ticns. In order that the beneficiaries
may not feel that they are objects of
chaYifV the Sums adNya ncad for the
schooling are to be repaid in easy in
stalments after the graduation of the
pupil. In other words, the necessary
money is to be in the nature of a loan
on long time and without interest un-
til the pupil is graduated and becomes
a wage Garner. The details of the idea
were clearly set forth in Mr. Edmonds'
address. There are many reasons why
It should be adopted and none that we
can conceive of why it shouldn't.
The need for more technically edu-
Gated young men is already being felt
in the South. The few schools of tech
nology that we have cannot supply
graduates fast enough to meet the de-
mand. Railroads are being extended
mills are going up, mines are being
opened; there are bridges to be built
tunnels to be bored and roads to be
graded. All of these things require ex-
pert knowledge for the building and
the after operation. We have here an
abundance of brains; all it needs is
training. We must have more white
boys in the chronological institutions.
Mr.. Edmonds has shown one way of
getting them there. And we need more
schools Ito train the hands and the
heads in the industrial arts.

well, what is it?'
The unhappy young man cleared his
throat.
II have came; that is, have come, -
he began in stammering accents, Ito

ter Ruth"
The old man leaned back in his chair
and intently regarded his visitor.
Does my daughter want your" he
asked
Yes, sir; l am sure she does" the
youth replied with some eagerness.
She sent me to YOU
The old man sighed.
"The whims of that child are really
unaccountable,' he muttered. "It

cried for a doll Then it was a pony.
Now it is a monkey. OF course she'll
have to have it if she wants it. That's
all. 'Good-day."

THE GATHMANN GUN FAILURE.

There was a good deal OF politics
mixed up in the appropriation for the
Gathmann gun tests, which resulted in
the failure of the gun at the govern
ment proving grounds the other day
The army board of ordnance, of which
Gen. Burlington is the head, had re-
ported adversely to the Gathmann gun
and it's aerial torpedo. The board said
it had examined the inventors plans
and claims and reached the conclusion
that they were not practicable. How
ever, Inventor Gathmann was fortu-
nate in having the friendship of Sena-
tor Hanna, who. Notwithstanding the
adverse report of the army officers,
was able to procure a government ap-
preparation of $125, 900 to cover the cost
of the proposed tests.
How the tests resulted has been set
forth fully in our dispatches. The pro-
iectile, or aerial torpedo, utterly failed
to demolish the armor-plate target
against which 1t was fired. To show
that it was not a victory of armor
against shot, a regulation shell was
fired at the target from a gun of small
er calibre than the Gathmann gun,
with the result that the target was
torn to pieces. Thus the army board
and Gen. Burlington were vindicated,
at a very considerable cost to the gov
ernment. The new gun must be writ
ten into the list with the dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius and other expensive
failures that the government has from
time to time been persuaded to expert
ment with.
The Gathmann experiments, however
were not entirely barren of results.
They demonstrated that it is entirely
possible for large charges of high ex-
plosives to be projected from service
guns with safety to both guns and gun
ners. In the Vesuvius armament, 1t
will be recalled, the propelling force
used was compressed air. 1t was be-
lieved that the explosive force of gum
powder would certainly detonate the
gun cotton in the torpedo, with dis
astrous results to both the craft and
the firing party. But with the Gath
mann gun, shells containing 500 pounds
Of wet guncotton were several times
fired, with powder, with entire safety,
and at no time did the charge explode
before the target was struck. That in
itself is an important achievement and
may lead to developments of moment
in the future. Whether It was worth
sl25.OOO 10 learn that. however. is a
question for ordnance experts.

The other day it was announced that
the Commercial Gable Company had
given an English firm the contract
to construct and lay it's proposed cable
from Hawaii to San Francisco. In
view of the great manufacturing ac-
tivity of the United States it was some
what of a surprise that the order did
not go to an American firm. Mr.. Ward,
a vice president of the cable company.
was asked why the order had been
placed in England and not in this
country. He replied: There is no
company in the United States that
could, we felt, perform the work. They
have not the machinery, and we could
not afford to have the work of lay
ing the cable take the form of an ex-
pertinent" The English company to
which the contract was given, he ex-
planned. has been in the business for
upwards of forty years, and has laid
most of the deep-sea cables through
out the world, so that it understands
perfectly just how the work should
be done. The estimated cost of the
company's cable, when completed to
the Philippines, is $4,000, 900. This is
round sum of money for American
manufacturers to see going out of the
country.

Don't Get Rich. .ePapa. ,,

The children of a certain family,
during its prosperity, were left in the
nursery in charge of servants, says
Success. When adversity came, the
servants were discharged and the par
ents lived with the little ones. One
evening, when the father had returned
home after a day of anxiety and busi-
ness worry, his little girl clambered
on his knee, and. twining her arms
around his neck. said:
Papa, don't get rich again. You
did not come into the nursery when
you were rich, but now we can come
around you, and get on your knee and
kiss you. Don't get rich again, papa. :"

SAM JONES EXPRESSES AN OPINION.

/
In the opinion of the Rev. Sam Jones
the Wright dispensary bill, which has
passed the House and Senate, and
which has gone back to the House for
concurrence in some minor amend
n7ents made by the Senate, is a good
thing for the cause of temperance. He
was moved to express this opinion by
an attack which the Rev. Walker
! Lewis made on the bill, in an article
/ in the Atlanta Journal. The Rev. Mr..
Lewis threatened that if the Legisla-
ture passed the bill all the
Methodist ministers in the state
would join in a crusade against
the liquor traffic. and would give
Georgia prohibition. Evidently he
spoke without authority. because. when
he offered a resolution against the
Wright bill in the North Georgia Con-
ference the other day. he was promptly
told that it was not the business of
the conference to NEEDLE with legisla-
tive matters, and his resolution was
tabled by very large majority
The Rev. Mr.. Jones, speaking of the
Rev. Mr.. Lewis article against the
bill, says: Il have never heard of
Brother Walker Lewis tearing his
clothes on a question of prohibition.
If he has ever made a prohibition
speech I don't know it,"
From this it would appear that the
Rev. Mr. Lewis has only recently be-
come an enthusiastic prohibitionist. If
he had been a worker for prohibition,
such as the Rev. Sam Jones is, the
latter would certainly have known it.
What. then, is the occasion of his sud
den zeal in behalf of prohibition? What
has happened to him, or occurred in
his experience that inspires him to
seek to be the leader of the opposi-
ton to the Wright bill-a bill which
has the support many OF the abl9st
and most influential prohibitionists Of
the state?
OF course, we cannot doubt his sim
cerity, but, at the same time, we Won
der why it is that he has not hereto
fore been standing shoulder to shoul-
der with those who have been bat
tling against the whisky traffic ever
since Georgia has been a battle-ground
on the liquor question.
The Rev. Sam Jones seems to think
that if the Wright bill served no other
purpose, 1t would be a good thing to
pass it If it called the Rev. Walker
Lewis to the front on this question and
put him on the stump in the interest
of prohibition. And he points out that
it should be passed by all means if it
would cause the 600 Methodist minis
ters of the state to leave their pastor
ates and go on the stump and battle
against the liquor traffic.
Clearly, the Rev. Mr.. Lewis has not
given the Wright bill the thoughtful
consideration to which it is entitled
We suggested as much a few days
ago, and the Rev. Sam Jones supports
us in this position. And what the
Rev. Sam Jones says in respect to the
Rev. Walker Lewis record on prohi-
bition justifies the inference that the
latter doesn't know much about the
whisky traffic question-that his sud-
den zeal against the Wright bill isn't
justified by anything he has ever said
or done to advance the cause of tenn
perance in the state of Georgia.

The last heart-blessing that she gave

The admonition that all went amiss,
And what God ne'er can give-her fare
well kiss;
The fadeless picture as she knelt to
pray
The she might meet me up above
some day.
Your mother died tonight" is all IL
said,
AS on the throbbing wire the tidings
sped
From that old, happy home. from
which / came.
To strive anew for honor and for fame.
To moil with will TO win a golden
store
To lay in solemn supplIance at her
door;
But shattered are the hope, unnerved
the might,
BY that sad message, Mother died to-

We called attention a few days ago to
one of the reasons why American
workmen excel those of any other
nationality-the one being that they
consume less alcohol in the shape of
beer, wine and spirits. Some esti-

published, show that wine, beer and
spirits are consumed in the leading
countries in the following proportions:

For ages Santiago de Cuba was noto-
rious as one of the dirtiest and sickli-
est cities on this side of the Atlantic
ocean. 1t was a pesthole in which yell
low fever had a permanent abiding
place. Now, however. it has been made
an exceptionally clean city and its
health is excellent. It is understood to
be the purpose of Gov. Gen. Leonard
Wood TO make Santiago a model city,
to which end he is now devoting him

There has recently been some talk of
Adjt Gen. Corbin going to New York
to take charge of the police force of

surance that the general would ac-
cept the place. 1t has been said that
he might be able to get a leave of alb
sence from the army for two years, and
thus draw the New York police salary
and his army salary at the same time.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Commenting on Lord Rosebery's sug-
gestion of a government of business
men, the Detroit Free Press (Dem.)
says: Genius for government and
genius for business are not even dis
family related. Take the United States
for example. Washington was a sue
cessful business man, but he might be
called the first and the last of Ameri-
can statesmen who deserved the title.
Nearly all the. other bright names in
the history of American government,
from Jefferson TO Mckinley, have been
possessed by men, who, if they were
not slothful in business, were by no
means successful"

Neither the United States nor Great
Britain maintains a large standing
army, both are earnest advocates of
the peaceable settlement of interna-
tional differences; nevertheless these
two governments are now spending
more for their armies and navies than
any other governments in the world.
The Montreal Herald recently compil-
ed a. table of military expenses of the
five leading governments. taken from
their latest budgets, which makes the
following showing:
United Kingdom .............$ .$445, $50, 900
United States ................ $50, 727, 900
RUSSIA ..................... oUo, ,oOU,oVu
Germany ........,............ Geo,5O0, O0U
The figures for the United States in
clude, of course, the pension expendi-
lures, which are properly added in the
military expenses. Deducting $780,
900. 900 of pensions, however, it will be
seen that the United States are pay
ing almost as much for their military
establishment, small as it is, as either
France or Germany, which latter gov
ernments have nearly a million men
under arms.
