HOW TO BECOME GREATER.

Commenting upon the statement OF
The News that those towns which are
talking about "greater this or that"
must make themselves greater it they
would have it done, that nobody else
will do it for them, the Savannah
Press says:
1.-THE Dawson News strikes the key
note of the whole question. There is
a little saying of Shakespear, ''Tis
not in others, but in ourselves that we
are thus or thus The village or city
which stands together and says it is
going to be Greater Cordele or Great
err Atlanta is in fair way to become
SO. When a town starts its own in
dustries and equips its own plants, like
Dub in for instance, you are going TO
see people moving in there by the
scores. When one industry grows there
is little trouble about establishing an
ether industry. Nothing succeeds like
success. When the people of town are
thrifty and prosperous people from
other towns want TO go there. Pros
peritv is the most attractive thing in
the world. 1t is highly contagious.
The key to Greater Georgia is self
help-living at home, buying at home.
The best increment to the growth of
Savannah, for instance. is the dollar
made in Savannah, saved in Savannah
and invested in Savannah"

Laymen in the Pulpit.
Columbus Enquirer-Sun.

From the Columbus Enqurer-Sun.
Trinity Episcopal church, of this
city, has inaugurated what is probably
a pew era in practical church work.
This something new will consist of
series of talks and addresses from
half dozen practical successful business
men of Columbus, to be delivered at
the regular evening services for the
next six weeks TO the congregation,
and such others as may attend. These
addresses will all be delivered by men
of high standing in the community,
who have themselves made success
of life, and it is thought that their
words of warming and advice will be
we'll received by all, and will make
naturally a marked impression, es-
peciallv upon the minds of young men
whose future lie before them. All of
these talks will, in fact, he in the ma
ture of messages to young men; they
will be delivered by laVmen of maturer
years, who have themselves success
fully passed the trying days of youth
and who are well qualified to caution
and advise the young. The fact that
men who from their daily contact with
the world know it and are in position
TO give valuable advice as to which OF
It's phases are best to cultivate and
which best to leave alone are to make
these talks should make them all the
more valuable to the young men who
will listen to them. The idea is
good one, and is one which embodles
the great principle of the greatest
good TO the greatest mum Der, and car
ried out in its rightful conception will
not fall short of good results.

SENATOR TILLMAN's GREAT SPEECH

The Washington correspondent OF
the Savannah News says the speech
made by Senator Tillman few days
ago on the race problem was perhaps
the ablest and most temperate deliver
ance that has come from him since he
became a senator. 1t made a decided
impression upon the republican sena'
tors, who were given better view
OF the southern situation than ever be-
fore.
Senator Tillman disappointed his
enemies and COMPOUNDED his timid
friends by his powerful and conviuc.
ing review of the race conditions, not
only in the south but throughout the
north. Within the past few days, says
the dispatch, the senator's mail has
contained over 1900 letters, principally
from northern and western cores.

speech in full AS soon as it is revised

him to withdraw Crum's nomination.

act upon the suggestion, and demands
that unless senators go on record for
or against the confirmation of Crum
he will carry out his declared inten-
ton to re-appoint the negro doctor

THE COTILLION CLUB
The Leading Social Organization in the City.
Composed of the Most Genial, Most Pleasant
Most Popular, Most Energetic Young Men in
the City.

Almost daily the Review has had
for months something to say about
the Cotilllon club. Their various
functions have constantly been be-
fore the public eye They seemed
to be In one continuous whirl OF
gaety. Aud as the columns OF the
Sistersvllle's leading paper teeued
with the descriptions of the good
times they were having, those not
members certainly grew envious,
and coveted the pleasure that seem
ed to be the portion of the elect
whose names appeared on the club
rolls.
The Cotillion boys certainly have
more fun than any other aggregation
in the city. Not bothered by caste,
with the one aim to have good
time and to make every one else
have the same they spend more
pleasant hours III their club rooms
and In their receptions and In their
entertainments and In their private
socials and In their elaborate balls
than any other"crowd" In the town.
They never pine for something to
turn up In the social line. They
turn something up every day, and
1t Is something pleasant, something
enjoyable, something full to the
bursting point with pure and I'm
adulterated fun.
The boys in this club are among
the best known Ia the city. They
constitute the cream of the young
business and social circles. Toe
one qualification for membership Is
that the applicant must be good
fellow Aud that word good" as
thus employed, means good deal.
1t extends to his business capacity,
his integrity, his general standing
in the community. No droues are
among this gang. They are full of
the hustle and hustle and push and
crush of this busy town, and they
take the same energy into their
pleasure that they demonstrate In
th,ir business relations. When
working, hey work to wit; when
work IS over hey don their society
togs and decorate themselves with
the insignia of their organization,
they are ready for any and all fun
