GEoRGIA's INWGoRATEo NERVE.

The very air in Georgia, partic-
ularly in the central, area must be
a wonderful nerve tonic. The
cases of nerve development in that
section are truly remarkable. One
of the latest and at the same time
wonderful specimens is furnished
in circular to the press from the
press bureau of the Southern Cot
ton Association in Atlanta. The
introduction to a letter signed by
President Harvie Jordan was
doubtless prepared by DR.. Wat
son, with characteristic apprecia-
ton of his chiefs powers of in
tuition.
1t begins: GA new use for the
vast surplus of cotton raised in the
South has been suggested by Pres
ident Harvie Jordan of the South
ern Cotton Association. Z Z Pres
ident Jordan thinks that cotton
bags should be used for commercial
fertilizers instead of the jute bag
ging now used"
We are told that President Jor-
dan "pOints out an excellent meth
3D." and then the introducer steps
gracefully aside and leaves Mr..
Jordan to do the rest. And that
President Jordan proceeds to do by
presenting the plan and giving the
figures and the arguments that APP
peared in an editorial in the State
three weeks ago.
The State is delighted that the
Southern Cotton Association is
pressing the subject. This news
paper urged it's contemporaries as
well as the organization of which
Mr.. Jordan is president to consider
the merits of the proposition and
to give it the widest publicity, and
we are gratified that newspapers
from North Carolina to Texas have
endorsed the suggestion.
The State recognized the posi-
bilities of the utilization of cotton
cloth and it gave the views of Mr.
George A. Wagner, the Charleston
manufacturer of such bags. 1t
was the first newspaper to take up
the subject and may be pardOned
for taking some pride in its initial
efforts in a cause of much promise
to the South. Yet the State has
nothing copyrighted, fact which
some of our contemporaries seem
to appreciate, and in the case in
point we only rise to remark on
the salubrious and nerve oning
properties of the Georgia climate

DENIED THE RIGHT OF TolLER.

Negroes are never mobbed in the
South for trying to work. On the
contrary, they are encouraged to
work, and there is plenty of work
for them to do. Labor is the ne
grO's surest safeguard throughout
the South, for it keeps him out of
mischief and gains for him the
friendship and sympathy of the
white people.
In spite of all this, the move
ment of Southern negroes to the
Northern cities increases steadily
day by day.
And it has come to pass that the
bitterest race prejudice in America
is now to be found among the peo-
pie of the North, and this prejudice
is never so strenuously exhibited
as when the negro commits the I'M
pardOnable offense of trying to
work for living.
The Chicago Tribune advises the
negroes to keapaway from Chicago
Under the circumstances, it must
be admitted that the advice is most
excellent.
There is no doubt that the ne
groes are as much entitled to live
and work in Chicago as are the
white people, but the white people
are in the majority, and they do
not want negroes around, save CD
election day.
The negroes find similar preju
dice against them in all the North
ern cities.
The negro's best opportunity is |
in the South where, if he be in
dustriOus and decent, he can ac-
quire farm and become indepen-
dent and prosperous. The negro
who goes to the North is almost II
sure to get into trouble,

service he was born soldier. His
death removes the last pensioner
of the second war with England.
He lived ninety years after his en-
listment as soldier-a remarkable
record.
While all the veterans of the
War of 1912 are dead, the widows
of veterans linger. There were
913 of them on the pension list
last year. These are dying rapid
ly, however, and probably not
more than 700 are now living.
1t is expected that fifteen years
hence the number of Northern pen
sioners of the Civil War will be
POI, 900, and that by 1910 this
number will have decreased to $40.
The number of pensioners widows
at that time will be larger than the
number of pensioners, but not as
large as it would be but for the
law which provides that the mar
riage of pensioners since June q,
1890, does not render their widows
reasonable.
A year ago the number of North
ern pensioners on the roll wa
994, 762, and of these 924, 919 wer,

ing the year ending last June 43,
$50 pensioners died, and it is esti
mated that the number dying dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 30
1905, will reach Al, 900.

WATER FAMINE MENACE.
Reduced Pressure IN Brooklyn Mag
Lead to FeUer Endemic.

There is grave danger Of an epidemic OF
typhoid fever and other diseases brought on by
unsanitary conditions as a result of the de-
crease in the water pressure in the Brooklyn
mains because of the shortage which the Water
Department says exists. Il was stated yester-
Gay that there had been saving Of ten million
gallons on Tuesday over the daily consumption
OF last week, and that II this saving could be
continued the water supply would hold out until
such time as the reservoirs were replenished by
more rain.
Neither Deputy Commissioner Farrell nor
Chief Engineer De varona was in the Brooklyn
Office yesterday. II was stated that the com
missioner was out on the island contemplating
the depleted reservoirs, and the chief engineer
went 10 Manhattan 10 escape the complaints
hat poured IN on account OF the reduction OF
the pressure.
There has been much suffering, not to speak
Of Inconvenience, in all parts Of the borough on
part Of the day no water can be drawn on the
top floors. and in some districts the supply is
cut Oh above the first door. resident Of
Ocean Hill reported yesterday that there was
much sickness in the tenement houses in that
district The residents cannot get water 10
wash with or for other purposes. Persons who
have made partial investigation say that for
this reason the conditions in some Of the tene-
ment houses are deplorable. Doctors say that
in this weather such conditions lead 10 the rapid
spread Of disease.
The fact that the Water Department has or
OSreO the SLrSel Cleaning department u sNOP
using the sprinkling carts before sweeping the
streets viii also cause the spread Of germs and
the development of sickness. In some parts or
the borough the street cleaners were even
stopped from using the hand sprtnklers.
The only sections Of the borough that are not
feeling the water famine F1atbush and
GraVesend. Each district is supplied from driven
wells by private companies.
AIr Marren of the firm OF Elliott & Marren, Of
Brentwood who Is familiar with the sources Of

that the contention of Chief Engineer De Farona
that there was not a sufficient supply for Brook

OF water, If the department would only use
