Should Bottle up Hobsor.

Mrs. Myrick, ediCress of the Amer
icus Times, thus gives vigorous ex-
preston To her opinion of Hobson, the
alleged hero:
If the country is tired of one thing
more than another it is the constant
reference of the papers to little Hob
son. We have him thrust upon us ad
nauseam every day. Little Hobson
will run for congress; he will not run
for congress. He will get married, he
will not wed. He presents his lady
love with "a $500 poodle; she rejects
both the poodle and the jackass. He
will go upon the lecture platform; he
denies the statement. He will ask a
years leave of absence: he should be
grar ted fifty of them. without pay. He
will twist the tigers tail as a plunger
in the Atlanta cotton market: he will
be neither bruin or taurus, but a
iackass always. This was the list
completed at the hour of going TO
press last night. The country is weary
of little Hobson. Let's forget him, as
we did Pat Grove, Charlie Ross, Dink
Bolts and the man who struck Billy

AN UNFAIR CONDITION.

There is probably more than one
thing in Georgia affairs which needs
remedying, hut there Is one thing ln
particular which needs a change
needs it soon and needs it badly-Vlz:
the manner of paying the pubic school
teachers of the state the salaries due
them. The salaries are by no means
too munificent, bat they should De paio
when due. AS rule there is not d
more hard working, conscientious
wage-earner than the average teacher
of the country school, and instead OF
uniting him or her off till among the
last of its creditors the state snoulu
place the pedagogue up toward tne
head of the list.

John and Jim.

| From the Albany Herald.
How much easier it is for some of US
to be good than it is for others, as men
! see and Judge each other!
Now, there's John Roe, for instance.
He seems to have been born good and
to have held his own. He is regular
attendant upon the particular branch
of the church to which he belongs,
never engages in worldly amusements,
never swears, never gets drunk in
fact, he has no besetting sin, and his
daily walk and conversation are appa-
rently exemplary.
But there Jim Doe
Jim is an entirely different kind OF
fellow, and the difference lii the Two
men is the work of nature.
jim. like John, belongs to the church,
perhaps, but on the surface his daily
life is less exemplary. He lives and
walks in the open, and If he has beset-
/ ting sins everybody knows what they
are. He may have as much respect
for the church and be as loyal to it in
some ways as John Roe, but, somehow,
he can't keep as strLight and walk as
circumspectly all the time as John.
| He will bubble over occasionally and
| is liable to say and do things at times
and on provocation that are calculated
to shock his friend John and which
put the two men in an entirely differ
! enJ class.
John is all right OF course John is
all right!
But may not Jim be- all right, too?
After all, may it not be that jim has
more human nature and more to con-
tend with in day than John has in l.
months And although Jim may
have his faults as men see and judge
! each other may he not, in the eyes OF
God, who sees beneath the surface and
into the innermost recesses of the
heal t, be just as good man as John
Without discounting John, let us not
be too quick to cOnsign Jim to the
/ depths of moral depravity.

Don't, Steve.

From the Madison Advertiser.
Senator Steve Clay returned to
Washington last week, and was ac-
credited with purpose to reopen the
Schley-Sampson embodiment, and to
make speech which would turn up
the drying alterations again. Don t
do it. Steve. Your peope are growing
wonderfully FESTIVE of this continued
bramble of BAN boo politics, where our
representatives are strutting them
selves as nation savers like a sixteen
year-old girl in a new mouse colored
wrap. Pacify yourself to the content
ment of doing some practical good for
your section, and quit making yourself
a mimic ife-preserver of the country.
Learn the lesson of the raY.ng bovine
in a Mexican bull fight, and curl your
tail in contempt for the teasing red
flag that is continually Haunted to
madden southern representatives to
bonn bast while northern members pull
the Doodle.

Fearful Damage is Done by Mexican
Earthquake.

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 17.-One OF the
most terrible catastrophes ever re-
corded in the state of Guerrero is re-
ported TO have occurred late yesterday
afternoon, when an extremely violet
earthquake shock was felt at Chllpan,
cingo, causing great loss OF HE and
iniuring many persons. Details from
the stricken district are very meager,
but scattering reports received here
Indicate that probably 30 persons

IL is known that the state capitol. the

houses and residences are in ruins,

CARELEssNEss BRINGS DEATH.

Twice within the past few days, as is
noted elsewhere IN this issue of THE
NEWS, has human being been de-
prived of life by burning.
Such lessons are of almost daily oc-
currence, and it seems that their sad
results should render them effectua',
but accidents of this kind appear tO
increase in number. Why a parent
will leave a young child by an open
fireplace alone. or unprotected in q
piece of burning woodland, is hard tC
understand.
Such accidents occur with more fire.

manner which would indicate that the
flames were absolutely harmless.

THE COUNTIES AND wHKKEY.

The Atlanta correspondent of the
Macon Telegraph writes an iaterest-
ing article concerning the status OF
whiskev ia Georgia as it relates 60 the
different counties. According so his
figures there are 81 dry counties, %
wet and % which have dispensardes-
This shows tnae the dispeI sasy Is
becoming popular as the logical sOln-
ton of the liquor ques ton, as fonr or
Eve years ago there were not more
than three or four counties ia the
state in which the sale of whiskey
was thus regulated.
The Telegraph's correspondent,
however, has made d few errors 10
placing some of the counties. Laurens
county, which he places in the wet
column, belongs in the dry, as does
Worth. Randolph and Stewart, which
he numbe among those which have
dispensaries, are dry, and Webster and
Quitman belong to the wet column.
Terrell is correctly placed in the
dispensary column, and the correspond
ent might have depressed enough
to state that the people of the county
are more than satisfied and would not
exchange for the open saloon with its
many evils or prohibition with its at
tendant "tigers."

MIR. sCHWAB, GAMBLER.

The newspaper dispatches state that
President Schwab of the billion dollar
steel trust has been bucking the tiger
rather heavily at Monte Carlo. This
is the identical Mr.. Schwab who lect'
ures to Sunday school pupils and
poses as model for ambitious BOYS
Those who have listened to his pratt
ings in good faith will be widely sur
prlsed to learn of his courtShip OF
fortune.
In an editorial on the subject the
Savannah News asks, Can He Afford
IT," Schwab can afford it for awhile
financially, for his fortune is large and
his salary isn't exactly insignificant,
being the largest rece we'd by any man
in the country. OF course the Sa-
vannah News refers to the moral side
of the question, though, and 1T would
seem that Schwab can afford it moral
ly as well As financially. La fact, it is
doubtful if such a word as morality is
known in the steel trust presidents
vocabulary. He threw off the sleeps
attire by has antics at Monte Carlo.
Already rich beyond the dreams of av-
rice, and drawing a fabulous salary,
does he hope to become douhly or
4rebly so by the Oft tried path OF
gambling? Not very good way, Mr.
Schwab-too uncertain and notorious.

There were 934 of them, and they get
more than 100000 year of the state
treasury. The dispatches say that
