The determination OF the people OF
any community to individually think
for themselves but collectively act for
the general benefit of all is the greatest
safe guard to rot and degeneracy that
has ever yet been discovered. Any
community dominated by a designing
mind to the extent that it might be
termed a one man town must perish
from the face of the earth. In com
munity OF interest one man is just as
big as any other man in proportion to
the royalty he evinces for the common
good Of all,

There Is q whole lot Of rot Ia this
talk nov going on about the stand
taken By the big missionary society
which has just declined q present from
John d. Rockefeller, on the ground
that his money is tanned with crime BY
reason Of the way be has amassed it.
Probably all the charges made against
Rockefeller and more are too, butit is
safe TO say that his hands are az clean
as are mauy OF the leading spirits Of
these same missionary societies which
would draw a screen over their own
irregularities to make a grand stand
play against John. The fact Is that
there is no organized plan Of gathering
OF distributing money on earth today
that costs as much in proportion to
the amount accomplished, as is dis
closed when the inner workings Of
some Of these greatly advertised mis-
sionary societies are know. To visit
the headquarters Of one Of these great
societies in New York or Boston, get
close to their working and figure on
their distributions, is but TO be con-
vinced that there are more sleek old
preachers and political grafters living
in clover by the lavish expenditure Of
the money gathered for missionary
purposes, than in almost any other
public station Of life in this country.
The only wonder is that shrewd busi-
men like Rockefeller would even offer
them an appropriation. 1t is a slur on
his good judgment to imagine that he
did 80 with any idea that twenty FIVE
per cent of his gift would ever reach
any one needing charity. The society
imagines probably that it has scored a
great point by turning down the old
roGber, but the long chances are that
the chickens or high moral posing will
in the near future come home to roost.
John is wise old guy, and the deoli-
nation of his proffered charity may re-
suit in him investigating the inner
working of the same crowd which has
made him look like thirty cents, and il
he chooses to do this, discount them
with his disclosure. And by the way,
John has about the best information
bureau on earth and he can strike with
intelligence when he wills, such a
crowd as has been scoring him lately
from a high moral standpoint.

The partisan prejudices famed 90
successfully for years by the politicians

some sections Of the nation are gradu-

have caused so many to move South

The matter Of new depots at Bir

railroads are paying no attention
whatever to the peoples demands 10

Despite the sparce confidence in the
7 overs that be, in Washington, every
day brightens the prospect of the Pan
anna canal being ultimately built, and
by reason thereof the South is fairly
tumbling over itself getting ready for
the great development Of this section
along the coast which must be greater
benefited by the Improvement than
any other section of the nation. Every
Southern city is taking on new life,
realty is steadily advancing in value,
traffic on the railroads Is making
wonderful strides in its growth and the
whole Southland is teeming with
renewed life and vigor. 1t is as if a
great new country had suddenly been
discovered and the people were get
ting ready to rush in and develop it.
The South is not particularly new, nor
dormant in its crude state, but it has
not yet recovered from an unnatural
devastation which left it struggling
with conditions which might well have
been spared, except for mans selfish
ness, and this new enterprise, promis-
ing sure and swift rebuilding is
hailed with delight by ALL There are
thousands now visiting the South to
one occasional straggler q few years

than the mere pleasure of riding
about.

Out West, in the old days, a man
never carried a gun unless he wanted
to use it. The game was to have your
gun at home. Then when a fellow
drew bead on you, you could throw
up your hands and show him you were
nnarmed. He would never shoot il
you did that. Now days every little
sneaking sun-of-a-gun who has the
price Of a pistol buys one and carries
it. You can hardly go about without
you see a dozen cheap sports with
guns twisted in their hip pockets.
