PUBLIC oPINIoN AND mar. IERoME.

TAT LILLIAN TRAVERS JEROME recently
w addressed the Georgia Bar Association
on Public Opinion, It's Power, Some Of its Evils
and Injustices" He may have gone all the way
to Warm Springs to make this speech because he
could not find an audience in his home city, that
had patience enough to listen to him. The New
York District Attorney has had considerable ex-
perience with public opinion in the last twelve
months and ought to be able to say what he
thinks about it. Certain it is, that public opinion
has sized him up pretty accurately. There are
few men of prominence who have proved their
shortcomings to the extent that Mr.. Jerome has,
and his failure as a prosecuting officer is largely
attributable to his undue anxiety to subserve the
interests of those whom he ought to oppose. Mr..
Jerome, in his speech, made mention Of the deci-
sion of Judge Humphrey, and said there was
mpropriety in crticising that Judges ruling. Are
we to understand from this, that Mr.. Jerome
wishes TO withdraw the indiscriminate attack he
himself, made upon the whole Supreme bench of
his own State? Mr.. Jerome is a fallen idol; his,

SHOULD DEMAND EXPLANATION.

TT City Council will call on City Solicitor
Townsend for an explanation of why certain
cases appealed from the Municipal Court were
reversed and the costs of the three cases sad
died on the taxpayers a very interesting revel-
ation will be made. 1t appears to us that the
city solicitor would have been only within the
bounds OF his duty to have given an explanation
to Council and the taxpayers why he could not
successfully urge an affirmance OF the decision
OF the Municipal Court in those three cases Per-
haps he thinks the tax payers have no right to
know anything about the expenditure of their
money even in cases where they should not have
to bear any expense, or it may be something
else. Let know about it before that bill of
costs is paid.

CHANCE FOR IMPROVEMENT.

TT the corporations that have occasion to tear
4 up our streets from time to time would alter
their methods, there would be marked improve
ments in the conditions of travel Just at pres
ent one the companies is engaged in laying con-
duits in that section of the city near Ninth and
Lombard Lombard street is torn up from Eighth
TO beyond Tenth; and in East Ninth street, stones
and dirt are piled up from Poplar to Pine. The
foot crossings are blocked and one finds it almost
impossible to get across the street, without wad-
ing through mud and slush up to his ankles, un-
less he gets out in the middle of the street and
walks between the car tracks. The inconvenience
resulting from such state of affairs plain, and
there is no necessity for tearing up more of a
street at one time, than can be replaced inside
of day or two. II would be good idea to finish
up the work on one square before tearing up
another one.
