Education as Capital.

Judge Robert NJ. Douglas.
Take man earning S15 a
month, and capitalize him like
any other business enterprise at
say six per cent. and he would
be worth $1,000. Deducting one
third of this amount for the
average chances of death, he
would still be worth $4,000 to
himself His value to his family
would be further lessened by the
cost of his personal support.
Take another earning $3.50
month, and capitalize him in the
same manner. He would repre-
sent capital Of $50, 900, ten
times that of the other. This is
not a mere financial conceit. 1t
is practically the rule Of damages
followed by the courts in cases
of death by wrongful act. taking
into consideration the life ex-
pectancy of the deceased. 1t
should be the rule to be sub
stantially followed in the educa-
ton of every child. If a parent
can educate son from a $50
hand, to a $3.50 hand, he has
started him with a handsome
CCtt1tt thoSt oSSui Siy A%>N'o>~~-
If the father is unable to do it,
and the State does it, is it not
profita BILE investment? The State
recognizes it as such in it's sys-
tenn of taxation, inasmuch as it
taxes a man both upon his head
in the shape of poll tax and
upon his personal earnings in the

ton I do not mean exclusively
scholastic training. I mean such

With increase of capital will
come increase of power; but
whoever would rightly reckon
with the industrial forces Of the
South in the coming years must
not overlook the human equation.
Even in material sense, the
best capital State can ever have,
the noblest in it's nature and the
most permanent and productive
in it's results, consists in the
educated manhood of it's people.

TRAIN KILLS FIREMAN
John Patrick McCafferys
Awful Fate at Frankli lin.

Times Democrat, Dec. ..
John Patrick McCaffery, a
young fireman on the Morgan :
Louisiana and Texas division OF
the Southern Pacific road, was
struck and instantly killed yester-
day morning by an inbound pas
senger train on that road. The
accident occurred near Franklin,
La, about 5 O'Clock in the morn
ing. Engineer Pat Dillon, who
was in charge of the engine
which McCaffery was firing, was
also struck by the train. His
leg was broken and he sustained
other injuries.
The body of the dead fireman
was brought to Algiers last
night and turned over to John
A. Barrett. the unde rtaker.
The body was placed in a metallic
casket and will be shipped to
New York at 9:2O O'Clock this
morning over the Louisville and
Nashville road.
McCaffery was fireman on
freight engine No. 179 of the
Southern Pacific road. Early
yesterday morning his engine
stopped near Franklin for water.
He crawled under the engine
to clean out the ash pan. That
piece of work completed, he
squirmed around under the en-
CINE and began to crawl out
again. He had just put his head
out between the wheels, when an
inbound passenger train swept
by on the other track. The pilot
of the passenger engine struck
young McCaffery on the head
just above the ear, carrying away
almost the entire top of the head.
Engineer Dillon was also down
on the ground oiling his engine.
He said last night that he re-
membered nothing whatever
about the accident, except that
when he came back to conscious
ness after being struck, the body
of the dead fireman was lying
across him. DillOn'S leg was
broken and he sustained other
injuries.
Engineer Dillon came to AL
giers early yesterday morning
on the engine which had killed
McCaffery. He was taken to his
home at 534 Pacific avenue, where
he was attended by a doctor.
The coroner at Franklin had to
view the body of the young fire
man, and consequently it did not
reach Algiers until 7:33 o'clock
last night. A delegation from
Endeavor Lodge No. 267, Broth
erhood of Locomotive tiremen,
met the body at the train and
have charge of the funeral.
John Patrick McCaffery was
comparatively a stranger in Al
giers. He has been down here
about two years. He was TWEEN
ty-four years of age and a native
Of New Jersey. He has a father
living in New York. Master
Mechanic J. J. Ryan of Houston,
who is in charge of this division
Of the Southern Pacific, and who
is in town attending the funeral
of A. G. Hutchinson, is a relative
of the young man.
Although he had been here
only about two years, young Nc
Caffery made many friends in
Algiers.

THE FEDERAZ APPO/VT,
fENTS EOR OUI.S/.4NA.


It is only a few weeks ago that
President Roosevelt adm Mustered
a severe rebuke to the Lily White
Republicans of Alabama, even go
ing so far as to remove from a
Federal Office gentleman who
had taken Il prominent part in eX-
Guiding negroes from participa-
ton in the Republican politics of
that State. In North Carolina the
president reprimanded the Lily
Whites through his manager, Gen.
Clarkson, for having turned down
the inoffensive brother in black.
But what the erractic Roose-
Welt condemns in Alabama and
North Carolina he approves in
Louisiana. In this State he
seems to be in sympathy with the
movement to organize white he
publican party, whose avOwed
purpose is the political annihila-
ton ofthe negro. Hehas recently
sent the following nominations to
the Senate: Henry Mccall, col
lector of customs: ElmerE. Wood,
naval officer: Hugh S. SuthOn,
superintendent of the mint: VIM.
E. Howell, collector of internal
revenue. AS is we'll known these
men are the leading spirits in the
Lily White organization in this
State. They have s1gnally failed
to make a showing of strength at
the last election, the vote received
by their candidates being smaller
than that polled by the old line
Republicans at any previous cleo
ton. But it is clear that for the
time being at least the president
will favor the sugar planters wing
of the Republican party in Louis
lana. How long he will continue
to do so it is not safe to predict,
because consistency is the rarest
piece in the political brio a brac
of the strenuous and eccentric
Theodore.
Theold line Republicans, headed
by Ex-Attorney General Simeon
Belden, Girault Farrar and other
stalwarts who are clinging with
answering fealty to the negro
as a political brother, protest
against the recognition at Wash
iugton of what they term spur
ious brand of Republicanism.
AS Democratic journal The
Gazette has little interest in the
distribution of Federal pap in
It is merely a ques-
ton of which faction will get the
Offices, a matter which properly
concerns only the faithful The
recognition of either side will not
affect conditions in Louisiana.
The most optimistic Republican
in this State can only hope to see
his party strong enough to take
care Of the offices.

THE ONL Y DEF ERRE"I.

band Mrs. White, resident of
Brusly Landing, West Baton
Rouge parish, was awakened by
the entrance of a negro into her
room. The intruder advanced
toward the bed of his intended
victim, when the latter drew a
revolver from under the pillow
and pointed it at the brute who
turned and ran out of the house.
The pluclzy woman fired several
shots at the fleeing negro. but
unfortunately missed the mark.
Had not Mrs. White used the
pistol, which she had prudently
placed under her pillow, it is
EASY to surmise what would have
followed.
In view of the failure of pun
ishment to act as a deterrent IN
these cases, some one wisely
sucoested that the women of the
South, particularly those who
live in isolated districts, be
taught the use of weapons to de-
fend themselves against the
fiendish attacks of luStful brutes.
Whenever the woman has been
able to use revolver or gun,
her would-be assailant has not
hesitated to run for his life.
As in the case of Mrs. White,
at Brusly Landing, pistol in
the fraiJ hands Of plucky
woman is the most powerful de-
terrent against the commission
of this most heinOus of all crimes.
A fire-arm within reach of the
person who is attacked is the
only thing to prevent the tiend
from carrying out his intention.
To hang or burn the brute after
the outrage is committed affords
but little satisfaction and in no
degree repairs the great wrong
which has been done. Had the
unfortunate woman, who was re-
Gently outraged in this parish
and who was subjected to
great humiliation, been pro
vided with a revolver it is safe to
say her assailant would not have
contaminated his hellish de-
signs. The coward would have
fled and Lafayette parish would
have been spared an awful indig-
nifty.
The men of this section can al
ways be depended upon to mete
out condign punishment to the
beasts who ravish their women,
but the only remedy which may
in a measure prevent the perpe-
tration of these unSpeakab in
famies seems to be in the hands
of the women themselves
ready pistol, a trusty rifle or a
shotgun.
Let all the women of the
South, especially those who live
in the rural distric is, be taught
how to handle firearms. Therein
lie the most effective means to
protect themselves against the
lecherous devils. Mrs. White
has shown what a plucky wo-
man can do with a revolver.
Every boy born in the world
should be put in the way of
m maintaining himself in honest
independence. No education that
does not make this it's first aim
is worth anything at all. The
being able to do something is of
infinitely more value than the
ability to answer questions.
More and more is it coming to
be seen that the Industrial hope
of the South is in a wider dis
semination of scientific, technical
and manual education, in making
universal, SO far as may be, that
knowledge of the forces of me-
chanics that will lead to the de-
velopment and mastery of the
material resources that still lie
s4umbering in the depths of our
hills and fields and fOreSts-thiS

GOOD CROWDS
Greeted the Nickle Plate Show
In Savannah.

The annual visits of the Harris
Nickle Plate Show to Savannah have
come to be looked forward to with an
ticipa ton of pleasure, says the Sa-
vannah News. The show has just
title to the i'm of being the best one
ring show on the road. Those who
have witnessed previous performances
will be glad to know that the show
has been greatly improved since it was
here last. many new and novel fea-
lures having been added.
The Nickel Plate is not large, but all
there is of it is good, and there is a
good deal to be seen. The prices of
admission, too. are very reasonable.
Performances will be given this after
noon, tonight, tomorrow afternoon and
tomorrow night. The Nickle Plate
has never failed to draw large crowds
heretofore, and it is not likely that it
will do so this time.
This show is to be in Akron next
Monday.
