In Public Affairs.

1t is always matter of deep
regret to the citizens of a commu
nifty to have to uncover to the
public gaze of the world dOings of
it's officials that may have trans
pred. However dlsaSreeable the
task may be, reforms cannot be
established upon a firm foundation
without these exposures Acts of
carelessness will grow into acts of
negligence and ripen into crimi
nality if public judgement, based
upon clear statement Of the full
facts, is stuffed.
The consequences Of violated
or outraged law is frequently less
dreaded by the wrong deer than Is
the publicity Of his acts, When
publicly exposed he sees ruin in
the frown of popular indignation
He is conscious of having wrong
ed the common people, who, have
by their votes, placed him i'll posi-
ton of public trust. He feels the
sting of the loss of this confidence
IN him. If he does not, then that
being is so base that public safety
rests only in his enforced contine
ment.
Publicity IN public affairs is one
of the greatest safeguards of the
rights of the citizen. The rights
Of the people to know, and the
fact thai they Will know, provides
many weakling with an artificial
backbone, that governs them in
the administration of public
rust.
In smaller communities the peO-
pie usually know the trend of pub
lie affairs better than do their
brothers Of the large cities. The
townspeople usually have the time
to discuss and. enquire into the
acts Of the administration. In
large cities there are many wells
and public interest is to frequent
" reserved till the period of a
crisis, when the country is shocked
by such exposures as were reveal
ed at st. Louis, Philadelphia and
New Orleans.
The excursion, given by Eagle
Fire Co. No. s from this place 70
Charenton, last Sunday was al
success. The company did not
clear much of a profit financially,
but they have gained for them
selves the masters degree in
handling excursion crowds and in
providing for the comfort and
pleasure Of their guests and pat,

We love the man with the rose
on his tongue, the man who sees
the bcy's dirty face but mentions
his bright eyes, who notices your
shabby coat but praises your stu
dious habits; the man who sees all
faults but is quick to praise, slow
to blame. We like to meet a man
whose smile will brighten up dead

music of the birds, whose hand
shake is an inspiration, aud his
"God bless you'' benediction.
He makes us forget our troubles

GEORGIA Is VERY PROSPEROUS.

Georgia is rapidly approaching
in material wealth the conditions
which prevailed just before the
civil war, when the returns of
property for taxation upon the
digests were the highest ever
known in the history of the grand
old State.
In 1860 the returns for taxation
il Georgia amounted to 1912, OO0,-
900, the highest ever known. Fol-
lowing the war with the slaves all
freed, buildings burned, stock
gone ard other heavy property
losses, the returns went down TO a
hundred million.
In other words, Georgia. actual
losses incident to the war, figured
and estimated from the tax re-
turns, were more than @ million
dollars.
For 1905 the total property re-
turns are 1915, 900, 900, this year
having shown an increase of $45,-
100000. If the ratio of prosperity
is maintained, Georgia will reach
within two years the pinnacle of
wealth upon which she stood in
1860.
These figures indicate that Geor-
gia's recovery within recent years
has been something rapid
