AMUSED THE PEOPLE.
Commissioners Changed County Seat
by simple Order.

SoaannaSTAohcFs NhbhBeu tOunty seat
by simple Order.
Abbeville, Ga, Aug. 1.-THE act of
our County Commissioners last week in
passing an order ito remove the county
site of Wilcox county from Abbeville
to Rochelle" created considerable
amusement here. Had the matter been
of serious import the Morning News
realers would have informed of it at
the time.
A report was sent, however, from
Rochelle to an Atlanta daily, and ref
erence to the matter has been made in
some other papers, and as some unre-
ffecting persons might accept the re
moval' as an accomplished fact, If the
absurdity of the thing were not point
ed out to them, II is deemed proper to
remind them that the County Commits
sioners have no more authority to
change the county site than they have
to remove the national capital from
Washington. The commissioners have
been enjoined, of course. and the case
will be heard by Judge Roberts at
Eastman on the 2Sth.
Abbeville has been the county seat
of Wilcox county for nearly fifty years.
Two court houses have been built here,
the first one having burned down about
thirty years ago.
Three or four unsuccessful attempts
have been made to remove the court
house in the only manner authorized
by the laws of Georgia. There is no
probability that the county site will
ever be changed, but if it ever should
be it will be done by constitutional
methods

Jaoanele Monumenf to Perry


Forty-eight years ago that gallant
American sailor, Commodore Perry,
sailed his ships into one of the forbid
den harbors Of Japan. and. greatly
daring, presented a letter from the
president Of the United States to the
emperor OF the island empire. At that
time he was an unwelcome visitor. The
Japanese had for years refused to en-
ter into friendly communication with
the western powers. Two hundred
years before they had expelled the
Portuguese from their islands and had
settled down to live as a hermit nation.
Perry woke Japan from its sleep and
a year after his first visit treaty OF
peace and 'amity between Japan and
the United States was negotiated. Fol-
lowing in the wake of Perry the other
civilized nations Of the world sent their
embassies to the court of the mikado
and within few years Japan had be-
gun to take its place as the most en-
terprising and ambitious nation OF the
far east. Now word comes from Yoko-
hama that a great association. at the
head of which is the imperial minister
Of Justice. is about to erect splendid
monument to the fearless American
sea captain who first opened the empire
to the uplifting influence of western
civilization. The history of Japan for
the last fifty years is marvel, and
nothing in 1t is stranger than the
change in sentiment which now leads
to the erection Of a public memorial
to the man who fifty years ago was
looked upon as presumptuous intrud-
er. Japan now honors the sailor she
at first received only under protest and
because she feared to refuse him. Per-
haps in ten years to come the Filipinos
may raise monument to George Dew
ey and even China may set up = mem
