The following sensible article is
from the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. It
applies to the Georgia militia as well
as to that of Virginia:
This week witnesses the end OF the
militia of Virginia as state force and
it's transformation into reserve OF the
regular army, to the direct orders OF
the president at all times.
The change, of course, is to be made
quietly. The most dangerous attacks
upon the liberties of people have al
ways been made insidiously. 1t is only
when by quiet and stealthy methods
the enemies of human liberty have
pained,a position from which they can
strike with safety that they have re-
sorted to force. And SO, ittingly AID
! consistently, this act, which makes
every man between the ages OF 10 and
40 subject to military duty, at the de-
mands of the president, is being quietly
put into effect, and the average man
does not even stop to reflect that this
NAV very well mean the beginning OF
the transformation of a republic in
fact into republic in name only.
Whether or not the governor had the
legal right to accept" this act for the
state of Virginia or whether congress
had the power to change the terms un-
der which militiamen enlisted we shall
not undertake to say. This, at any
rate, is what has been done, and men
who enlisted to serve under the cover
nor of Virginia's orders, within the
state of Virginia, will now find them
selves liable to service under the or
ders of the president anwhere in the
United States or in It's colonies.
The contention has, OF course, been
set up that by the hocus-pocus OF the
old act and a more or less vague court
decision the president has, construc-
lively, had the power all along. But
the fact stands out that for 100 years
no president has asserted that power
and it had become for all practical pur-
poses obsolete. But this act has ex-

WHAT EDITORS DON'T KNOW,
Interesting Extracts from an
Editors Address.

w. E. w. VERIFY, editor of the
Greensboro Waterman, and president
of the Alabama Press Association, in
making his annual address at Annis-
ton the other day, struck responsive
chord in every newspaper mans heart
when he made the following observa-
tions, which no one but an experienced
editor can appreciate:
"Before closing these remarks
wish to say that an editor is a man
who is supposed to know everything,
but wish to mention few things we
do not know, and may never know.
81. No newspaper man knows why it
is that the worst enemy the paper has
is the person who contributes nothing
to its support.
s2. Nor do we know how it comes
about that among the paper's most
constant and hGrshly critical readers
is the man who never subscribes.
SO. Nor do we know why an editor
is expected to publish immoderately
long obituaries free of charge, extoll-
ing the virtues, real or supposed, OF
someone who never in his lifetime con-
tributed cent to papers existence.
"a. And it is beyond our ken why
some business men will pay more for
an ad to one OF these fellows who 90
around getting up directories, to be
stuck up in some hotel or depot, than
they spend with the home papers in a
YEAR"

Novel Cure for DrunkenesS ,

In Norway drunkness is punished by
imprisonment. AS soon as a man is
incarcerated the delinquent has loaf
of breadand wine morning and evening.
The bread is served in wooden bowl full
of wine, in which it has been soaking
for an hour. The first day the drunk
ard swallows his allowance willingly
enough. The second day it seems less
pleasing. At the end of eight or ten
days prisoners have been known to abb
stain altogether from the food thus
pitilessly presented. This course OF
treatment finished, the drunkard, ex-
cept in rare instances is radically
cured.

THE PASSING OF THE STATE MILITIA.

plicity revived it and authorized the
president to use it.
We do not concede that the president
had previously the power conferred by
this act, but let us assume for the sake
of the argument that he did have it
under the old act. The vast difference
that the new act has made in the stu
alton can be made clear by an illustra.
tration. There is, we are informed,
an old law in this state that has never
been repealed which permits a man to
beat his wife, if he doesn't use q stick
larger than his thumb, and there is an
old law in Massac husetts that subjects
a man to line and imprisonment for
kissing his wife on Sunday. Does any
man contend that, as these laws are
still unrepealed, it would make no diff
ference if the legislature of Virginia
and Massachusetts should revive and
re-enact them? What would happen
TO a legislature of Virginia that would
sanction wife beating? And so, what
ever the theory in the case may be,
the fact is that the new militia act
changes the militia from state to a
national force and makes it a reserve
of the regular army.
This is the simple: plain fact that no
amount of legal clubbing can dissi-
pate. And we repeat what we have
said before, that young men OF stand
sng and intelligence, who believe in
American institutions, will hesitate TO
make themselves the possible tools OF
wrong, injustice and tyranny for new
gun and an annual junket at the ex-
pense of the Federal government.
AS there was no necessity for the
new act, SO it follows that it was not
ms pired by any consideration of the
public good, nor will it be used to con-
serve the public interest.
And so the state of Virginia now
finds itself without any militia and
with no means of maintaining Law and
order in case of serious disturbance,
save by the courtesy Of the Federal
government.

BRINGS SUCCESS.
Some Interesting Views BY S. S.
S. Officer.

From the Fourth Estate.
Col. G. A. Rucker, a well'kno wn
officer of the Swift Specific Company
and the Bradfeld Regulat or Company
who is now on bis. annual tour to the
Pacific coast had this to say on the
subject of advertising.
"The most successful advertiser OF
the future will be the one who ap'
plies the most care and scientific
principles to his work. The medium
must be the best. The results must
be carefully weighed and the news
paper space of the advertisement must
keep pace with competitors to insure
success, and to these requirements L
believe the great advertiser of tomor-
row will give most attention.
"Does advertising pay? know
that it does, and it does 80 most en-
phatically. The merchant who does
not advertise is not up'to-date. he Is
behind the times.
"Why, even in Atlanta, the home
town and place of the manufacture OF
Swift's Specific, we carry as much ad-
yertising as we do 10 proportion in
other cities, and still every man wo-
man and child in Atlanta knows our
preparations.
"The merchant who would7ride the
hand wagon OF success mnst adver-
tise."
Inasmuch as the two companies with
which Col. Rucker is connected spend
upward of three quarters OF million
dollars annually for advertising, his
views on the subject cannot but carry
great weight.

GEORGIA OWNS LADY BUGS
STATE HAS 100000 OF THE SAN JOSE
DESTROYERS.
EntOmOlOgist Scott of the Agricultural
Department Says "GOOd
Bye SCale.'

State Entomologist w. Nj. Scott,
Who in addition to inspecting the var
Ous orchards of the state and keeping
in touch with all the fruit growers OF
Georgia, is expected to kill all the
bugs which might injure the fruit in
terests, has been violating the law to
some extent of late, by raising, actual
Y raising, a colony of bugs down near
Marshallville. But it must be stated
mat the bugs are of the kind that will
destroy the San Jose scale, a dreaded
disease among peach trees and If the
plans of the entomologist meet with
success he will be hero in the eyes of
the orchard owners.
About year ago the United States
government presented Mr.. Scott with
twenty small insects known as the
Asiatic Lady Bug. 1t was said to be
40 insect, imported from Asia by the
United States department of agricul-
ture and was guaranteed to kill San
Jose scale rapidly, provided of course
there were a sufficient number OF bugs.
They we're discovered by one of the
government entomologist several years
ago and by being very careful he man
aged 10 bring several pairs to this
country These pairs multiplied and
last year the government furnished
several OF the southern states with
twenty bugs each.

Try the scheme and he took the bugs

which was infected with the San Jose
scale, and now the state of Georgia

COUNCIL ACCEPTS
 JONES' RESIGNATION.

The resignation of Gustave Jones as city attorney was rendered the coun- cil at a meeting held Tuesday evening and accepted by that body, though no steps were taken toward the filling of the vacancy created.
 Attorneys Joseph M. Stayton and J. M. Bell addressed the council upon the advisability of including the rail- road park property in the wealth subject to taxation under levy to be made upon the Front Street Improve- ment district and contended that the Iron Mountain railroad company could be made to pay it's proportion according to its assessed valuation. This property has not been assessed since deeded to the railroad company and the attorneys were of the opinion that there might be some doubt as to being able to collect tax this year upon said property, but assured the council that a tax levy could not afterward be resisted, as they had found upon referring to the records, that this land was transferred to the railroad company, with but two con- ditions, the location of a depot build- ing here and the payment of $5.00 by said company, both of which have been compiled with.
 Though not matter of record, AL derman Thompson suggested that Bailey and Wishon prepare and circu- late a second petition from the prop erty owners of said district, that shall include in it's calculations the railroad park property.
 Ex-City Attorney Gustave Jones states that his resignation was forced by a disregard of his counsel upon the part of the board, as in his opinion the present effort to include the park property will,tie the matter up in the courts for several years and thus block the improvement work, which he says is the real object of his opponents.

Great interest is being manifested among the veterans of Batesville con- corning the proposed monument that is to be erected in Little Rock in honor of the Confederate dead. At the last meeting of Sidney Johnson Camp No. s63, U. c. ", the Confederate monu ment committee was unanimously memorialized that they consider but one site for this monument and that this be the grounds of the new capitol building.
 In the language of the memorial, "It will there be the authoritative message of the state of Arkansas to all the future generations of her chil- dren, that she treasures as a sacred trust the memory of her dead sons who offered their young manhood for her defense. There if properly placed, it will bear this testimony to all persons visiting the state capitol grounds, not only our own people but strangers within our gates, as we'll. Placed in city park, it's testi- mony will be shorn of it's state wide effect and it will become but local adornment.u
