That South Carolina Lynching.

Those citizens who lynched negro raplst over al
Greenwood s. c. the other day in the presence OF the
governor of the state who had gone down TO appear
for the supremacy and majesty OF the law are salo
to have accorded the chief magistrate courteous anu
even enthusiastic attention
They thoughtfully built platform for the governor
thev gathered around that platform and heard him
speak there were no interruptions other than cheers
of approval as he eloquenty pleaded for the UNFOLDING
of the law casual observer would have been leo &c
believe the audience was deeply impressed even con
vinced that the law should be allowed to take lts
course 1t is possible that the governor thought So
too. At the conclusion of the speech however the
negro was rddled with bullets in the presence Oh te
governor.
If there is any moral in such paradox OF action 1t Is
rolabIv the fact that southern white hard tC
convince though they respectfully listen, that 1t Is
not their right and their duty to summariy deal with
the despoilers of southern wOmanhood.

But One Candidate Now.

Perhaps the most intensely active and, in some re-
spects the most bitter political campaign ever waged
5n Georgia has come end with the nomination OF
Hon Hoke Smith for governor.
The victors and the vanquished have told and are
selling how it was done Suffice it to say that was
done and with overwhelming effectiveness. 1t was a
victory and defeat unparalleled in Georgia political
history.
The victors cheers necessarily mean the conquered
ones chagrn 1t is not pleasant thing to be defeat
ed. There can be question that this defeat hurt,
and hurt badly. But the men who fell are brave
enough to keep on smiling, and those who brought
about the fall are generous enough not to Haunt the
palms We trust this is so, at least
For if is over now. The aftermath of a fight of bit
aerness is after all the time of unity Political dissen-
sion and strife should be buried with the dead hopes Of

Whv Not in Terrell?

The general assembly, at its recent session. passed
an act to establish an agricultural college in each OF
the eleven congressional districts, and already many
towns are making bids for the one that is to be located
in the second district. Nearly every section is adj
vancing it's claims to the college, Notwithstanding the
fact that the act provides that the school shall be To-
Gated at a central and readily accessible point Aside
from the question of central location Terrell county
would seem to be the logical place for the college, 1t
is undenabIy the banner agricultural county OF Geor
gia, producing more per acre than any other county
in the state Health conditions here are excellent.
The town is very accessible by railroad
1t would not be amss for Terrell to advance Its
claims for the school that is to be located IN this DIS
trct The law provides that 2OO acres shall be oonat-
ed wherever one Of these schools is placed ana IaE
News is sure that this stipulation would be cheerfuly
met NV the people of Dawson and Terrell county.

Cotton Goods in China.

Southern cotton mill owners have been much en-
ouraged by the increasing demand for the product of
their mills in China since the termination OF the war
between Japan and Russia recent report from
Consul-Genera Miller at YokohOma indicates, howev-
er that American goods are meeting sharp competi-
ton in Manchuria and to less extent in other parts
of China from the products of Japanese mills There
as still large market for the American goods as the
Japanese mills have not the capacity to supply the de-
1nand The outlook for the future is that the Japanese
mills will tend to keep the price of cotton goods in
China at level below that at which they would other
wise be sold by American and European merchants but
the Americans and Europeans will not be driven from
the field because the demand for cotton will increase
faster than the Japanese supply and there will be
tendency of the Japanese goods to increase in price
a result of the inevitable increase in wages in that
country that will follow tsindustrial development and
the growing demand for labor.

Beautify the Town.

Suppose every home-owner in Dawson would decide
to beauy his home by painting his house and putting
his front yard in order by making lawn, setting 1t
in ornamental plants and flowers setting shade trees
along the street front and keeping the streets clear OF
rubbish and weeds What difference it would make!
The HORSEPOWER would be happier; every citizen Of
the town would feel better and become more enthusi
stc over the ctys future; and last, but not least,
strangers who visit would be so captvated by the
ATTRACTIONS of the that if did not capture them
as citizens we would turn them into advertising med-
ums to sing our praises wherever they went
OF course it would be useless to ask everybody to
do this, but THE News makes appeal to as many as
will to do So and maybe the other fellows will become
ASHAMED of themselves and fall in line.
There are houses on some of the prominent streets
of the city that look than they never had been
painted at ALL and there yards which are without
plants or attention. This should not be Paint is

"DENATURED WOMEN"
From the Minneapolis Tribune.

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
1t is said that scme of the club wo.
men of New York complain of the way
in which the parks of that city are lit
tered up by parties of children.
No doubt such complain have been
made, for there are finicky women
everywhere, but we doubt if the whole
burden of the attempt to block the
childish fun should be laid at the door
of the club women, who are often the
objects of unjust criticism. We should
rather suspect that heidea originated
with those denatured women, whether
members of the club or not, who sport
dogs instead of children.

A CHURCH ON WHEELS.

From an Exchange.
A church on wheels is the latest de-
vice for combating the liquor traffic
in Philadelphia. AS soon as a saloon
keeper starts new saloon, and his
application for license filed, the
church on wheels is perambulated to
within few feet of the liquor empo-
rum and the saloonkeeper throws up
his hands in despair. This little
church is a substantial affair and will
seat 250 people, and after campaign
of few weeks has put fourteen sa-
looms out of business. Philadelphia
is delighted with its church on wheels,
and its pastor is the hero of the hour.
