Chicago has received a jolt. Its peo-
pie had foadly hoped that their city
was fast growing into the metropolis
of the entire world when along came
a school census which officially cuts
down their fondest estimate over a
hal million, leaving a net gain of
only 1860 in four yearsl
The city of smoke and strikes IS
shocked profoundly shocked from
center to circumference, and as yet
1t does not know what to do about it.
1T cannot well dispute its own official
figures, which were carefully taken
although the Chicago News does mus
ter up courage to say that screw is
loose. some where 1t declares the re-
cent school census absurd though thor
ough Tie more thorough, therefore,
the more absurd.
The truth Is Chicago has the shakes.
The TwoBillion club is on the verge
OF dissolution, and the Three-Billion
club has been dropped like hot po-
tato. The shock has upset the nerves
of Chicagoans, especially of those who
were on the wrong side of the wheat
market.
The lesson of Chicago is applicable
to some over-boastful towns nearer
home. The year 1910 is creeping on,
and then many hope will go down
even as one has in Chicago, which has
elements of growth and greatness FAR
beyond any CHER interior city in this
&c lntry.

Methodism and Lynchino.

50 Bishop Gambler o. Georgia has long
been an outspokea opponent of lynch
ing. and the Methodist church at
Statesboro is following resolutely in
his footsteps. The Methodist church
in that town calls upon its members,
il any there be, who participated in
: the recent .4me against the state, the
church and civilization ito make pub
lie confession of wrong with ex-
preston of penitence and contrition,"
or take themselves out of the church.
This action is encouraging, for 1t
goes to show that the better people in
every community are opposed to lynch
ing frolics, and will do all they can to
discountenance them. Once public
sentiment is aroused over the tramp
ling down without excuse of law, it
will not be long before it will be pos
sible TO apprehend lynchers and bring
them to trial. 1t is believed that this
will be done at Huntsville in this state,
and = is even hoped that the States
boro horror will not go unpublished.
If the great Methodist church takes
hold of this subject in earnest it will
not be long before a sound public SEN
timent will be built up in every part OF
the south There is no better agency
or power to head great moral revo-
luton. If the Baptists of the south
would reinforce the Methodists, the
lynchers would soon have to move to
the frontier if they desire to maintain
their peculiar sport. The older and
more orderly states would soon put an
end to it within Their own limits The
straightforward and uncompromising
course of the Methodists of States
boro is hopeful and suspicious sign
of the coming of much needed
change in public sentiment.

NATIONAL POLITICS.
Thevermont Vote.
ON the NASHVILLE Banner.

From the Nashville Banner.
Since the Vermont republican plurality
did not drop off the republican organs
are, as it was expected they would, MAX
ing much ado about the result as an
augury of the success or their national
ticket. The st. Louis Globe-emocrat ex-
claims; Vermont tells the story of 1904.
There is no mistake about the
Vermont barometer 1t never fails to
tell the relative strength of the two par
ties in the country at large. Every poll
ucian knows this. Every democrat, as
well as every republican, throughout the
country awaited the result of the YER
mont election with interest"
This glorifcation and exaggeration of
the Vermont result is rather amusing.
II Vermont had given a republican plu-
rallty of less than $4,000, the Globe Demo-
crat and other republican papers, would
have strongly insisted that the vote had
no real significance as relating to the ma
tional election, and would have been en-
deavoring to explain why reduced party
majority in that state should not be
regarded as indicating anything of the
trend of political sentiment throughout
the country. 1t makes good deal of
difference In such cases how the old
thing goes.

Fsvors Plurality Plan.

you may put me down as strongly In
favor of a plurality vote to decide the
approaching municipal election" said
Capt. Frank p OBrlen yesterday. l
consider 1t a fair and expeditions way
for settling a matter that may possibly
result In what are termed 'run-offs' under
the majority plan.
There are at present six candidates In
the race for mayor and there will GER
tainly be a second primary under the
majorit plan, because 1t is hardly prob
able, from the present state of affairs,
that all the leading candidates for the
various municipal offices will receive
majority of the votes cast. over the votes
Of their competitors. This will merely
serve to prolong the campaign and force
the contestants to go through second
primary.
Now srun-overs are farces. Nobody Is
interested in them and few voters will
take the trouble to go to the polls again.
If the plurality rule were adopted the
matter would be quickly decided by the
man receiving the largest number OF
votes being declared elected"

Sinking of the challenge relative to
the respective Administrative ability
of the Two parties. He considers the
record of the democratic party unas-
sailable, and he thinks the republican
challenge should be accepted by every
democratic newspaper.
Judge Par er's entire address was
admirable in scope, temper and judg-
ment. AS an appeal it goes straight
to the taxpayer, who does not desire to
see federal expenditures trebled again,
as they viii be if the republicans are
kept in power ten years longer.
Judge Parker said nothing truer or
more important than these words:
