l want to speak out now and tell you
gentlefoiks that it ain't altogether a
servants fault when he goes wrong.
You don't mean it, but you're careless
In yo2r talk, and it's all heard and re-
reated and set store by in a way you d
hardly believe. Your fathers and
mothers, gentlemen and ladies, they
were different and they looked after
their servants and their houses differ

bid to the butler and the cook for your
custom, and the higher the bills are the
better it is for them both. and half
the time you don't take no notice, and
1t gets kind of easy to pick up things
in little ways. Everybody's too rich
and too reckless. and that's the whole
trouble. What do these young men
that's waiting on the table hear talked
about all the time? Why, money, and
how much you can do with it, and how
mean YOU look without it, That's not
hear it. They see extravaganza all
round them, and hear it talked all the
time, and they go and do the same. If
you boast of how much you've made,
playing cards asd betting on the races,
why they'll think it's a grand thing to
do, and they'll do it once too often and

back your property but he'll never get
back what he's lost-and if you send
him to prison, he-he'll come out worse
than he went in. He was a good lad
when he went to you, but you do keep

A Born Advocate.

'I have a son." said Senator Spooner
of Wisconsin at the Waldorf recently,
according to the New York Times
who is by way of being lawyer in
Milwaukee and 1 never opposed MS
choice of a profession after an ex-
perience his mother and had with MIN
when he was a boy of 8.
THE three of us were walking on one
of Washington's avenues one evening"
as was our custom during my carrier
years In Congress-, when the lad an
nounced that he was tired and. would
return to the hotel as soon as l gave
him some money.
You don't need any money TO get
back to the hotel said. It's only
few blocks

the lad got the money, although wheth-

more than buy a plate of ice cream

Dick and his girls just left us; that's
them, nigh out of sight.
l wish him luck, for it's surely royal
sparkin night.
From our double gate to the Court
House is fourteen mile, exact
A two-hour drive, we call it, when
roads are good and packed;
But that auto rig contraption of his
scoots up and down,
And he says it cuts the distance in
half 'twixt here and town.
Well, mebbe it does; but seems like
he's goin' at things wrong
On a night like this he ought to con-
trive at twice as long!
IT'S part of the age, however, an age
of rush and run,
When unless you're fairly jumpin' you
can't be havin' fun,
When a couple must take their ridin'
at gallop speed or more,
With a choo! chooi choo! behind them
and nothin' at all before,
In rig that can't be trusted TO mind
a crooked road,
And right in the midst of matters is
liable to explode;
l reckon that one feels clever to make
the doin' whirl
But days when l was a-sparkin' the
main point was the girl!
When 1 was a-courtin' Marthy 1 hitch
up oil white Pete,
And the only thing I asked him was
that he'd keep his feet.
l wasn't obliged to guide him; he did
the turnin' out,
And he rounded all the corners at a
mile and hour about
When Marthy was snug beside me that
Old horse seemed to know
The likeliest shaded stretches where he
had best go slow
Why grass and the trees and bushes
along the way he cropped
Slow, Well, on a few occasions we
want aware he'd stopped!
That was the style of ridin' when /
was courtin'-see?
Nothin' to watch but Marthy, and both
hands. bless you, free,
With old Pete joggin', grain. and
cockin' at times an eye
Back at the seat, but sayin', Don't
mind; it's just a fly"
l s'picion there's fun in courtin' at
even breakneck pace;
And Dick is the boy 70 do tive
read II i'm her face.
But courtin' by rapid transit don't
pear TO me so sweet
AS the rambly, ambly courtln' of
Marthy and me and Pete.

NEW COUNTIES NOT WANTED.

1t is good thing for the people of
this state that the constitution pro-
vides that new counties can only be
formed by vote of the people at large
If there were not such a provision
in the organic law somebody, in one
part of the state or another, would
be moving to make a new county all
the while. Several attempts have been
made to get an amendment to the
constitution permitting the formation
of new counties without submitting
the matter to vote of the people, but
they failed.
AS rule the efforts in behalf of new
counties is made by men who want
Offices and they induce citizens to join
them in the effort by pointing out to
them that taxes will not be increased
by new county, but that property
values will be enhanced and that there
will be greater increase in the con-
veniences in. having a court house that
can be reached without having to
| travel anywhere from twenty to thirty
miles.
AS a matter of fact, however, COM
paratively few of the people live so
far from the court house that they
are put to great Inconvenience in
reaching it, Nowadays most of the
county seats can be reached by rail-
road. Besides, it is only seldom that
the great majority of the people have
occasion to visit the county seat.
1t is practically impossible to estab-
fish new county without materially
increasing the burden of taxation. Pol
iticians who want new counties may
show figures to prove that taxes
wouldn't be increased to an appreciable
extent, but the experience of about
every one of the 1877 counties is that it
takes money, and a good deal of it,
to run a county properly. There is
always some new excuse for putting
on the taxes. The farmers particularly
ought to keep their eyes open in those
sections of the state where efforts are
being made to make new counties,
because, if by any means such coun-
ties should be formed, they would have
to bear the burden Of the additional
taxes.
Georgia has now more counties than
she should have. The great majority
of them are so poor that they con-
tribute nothing to the support of the
state government-that is, they draw
from the treasury much more han
| they pay into it. The number of the
! counties which bear the burden of
supporting the state government is
very small. Therefore we say that
there are many more counties than
there ought to be. If some of them
were consolidated the cost of main
tanning them wouldn't be much, if any,
more than the cost of supporting one
of them is now. In that way coun-
ties which now contribute nothing to
the support of the state-are, in fact,
a burden on the rich counties-would
help TO maintain the state government.
1t is better to have big prosperous
county than to have the same terri
tory cut up into two or threee poor
counties-the poverty being largely
the result of an effort to support two
or three county governments.

that watermelons get ripe in the win

The interstate shoot will come to
an end to-day after having seen five
days of exciting contests and excel
lent shooting. Some splendid scores
have been made, and many of the
contestants have every reason to be
proud of the work they did for their
organizations. All the men in the win
ming teams did exceptionally we'll
while many of those in teams that
won no prizes made individual scores
that ranked well up among the best
in the matches. The shoot demon
strated. as did the state shoot of last
week, that we made a true predic-
tion-namely, that it would be appar.
ent that Savannahians have no Other
advantage over marksmen from Other
places than that derived from greater
experience and more constant practice
in rifle shooting. AS the years pas.
and state and interstate shoots fol
low one another, it is clear that tn,
practice that is being gained by rifle
men throughout Georgia and neighbor
ing states is advancing them to pro
ficiency that renders them dangerous
competitors in matches. The deepes
satisfaction should be felt in this. TIL,
spirit of competition is quickened. ant
there is the element of uncertainty al
to results that makes a contest excit
ing. 1t was formerly the case tina
when teams from elsewhere in Geor
gia or from other Southern states wer
pitted against Savannahians it was
foregone conclusion that the Savanna
team would win. The Savannahian
