Americans All

From the Atlanta Constitution.
The Southern people are, first Of all,
American citizens. They have the Amori-
can Instinct of fair play. they believe in
the democratic tenet Of obedience to the
will of the majority as honestly expressed
through popular sovereignty-not grudg-
ing. sullen acquiescence, but cheerful,
generous acceptance. A popular plurality
of nearly 10000 votes attests that Theo-
dore Roosevelt distinctly reflects the ma
jority will Of the national electorate. He
has received his high official commission
as n handsome certificate OF personal con-
ndence from tho hands OF his fellow
Americans. AS President of the republic
he IS entitled TO the loyal good will and
well wishes Of his countrymen. The mar
rover aspects OF partisanship should not
be permitted 20 survive the counting of
the ballots. We are all American citizens
before we are Democrats or Republicans.
and the President is not or should not
be tho President Of a party or Of a sec
ton. but of the whole people and the
whole country.

This frankness on the part Of our

party did not have righteous cause

(From the Alberduerke Journal)
The often voiced belief that the farm.
and the farm alone. produces brains is
being disproved every day in the men
who are coming to the front IN Ameri-
can public life. True the farm pro-
duces brainy men, but it produces IN
the same per cent as' IN the city total,
men who have either only "a modicum Of
brains or none at AN. True, the farm
produces Drawn. but it is seldom more
effective than the Drawn created in the
gymnasium or in hcalty sports.
There are many advantages attached
TO early life on the farm. but the in
voluntary acquiring of brains by simple
breathing in OF rural life and occupa-
ton is not among them.
The human animal, wherever he may
be placed by birth. has a tendency to
reach 20 certain average destiny There
are brilliant exceptions, men who soar,
but they seem to come alike from farm
