Railroad ownership by the Govern
ment is contrary to the whole theory
of our free institutions. 1t hanks back
to monarchy. Senator Morgan said
(now nearly year ago. that railroad
ownership is already an accomplished
fact; all that is lacking is the pay
ment of the stockholders for the prop
erty, and the actual taking over of the
deeds. The physical property is already
in the hands of the Government. If
this is so land isn't it SOP then one
of two things is true: Either the re-
public planned by our fathers is a
failure, or a blunder has been made
which must be undone. Courts are ar
rayed against courts, States against
the National Government and the
National Government against the
States.

STATE PRESS COMMENTS.
ALBANY HeraId.)

This new Railroad Commission with
increased powers ought to be very
conservative and level-headed, and
much is going to depend upon whether
its policy is fixed upon that line or not.
1t will be easy for the new commits
sion to ''oyerdo the thing" when it
comes to fixing rates and regulating
the railroad business in Georgia gen
orally, which it now has the power to
do. If the reforms and regulations en-
forced upon the railroads prove too
sweeping and drastic railroad prop
critics will become depressed and fur
Their railroad development in the
state will stop Then reaction will
set in, as surely as cause produces eff
feet, and we may expect another
shake-up and a swinging back of the
pendulum to the other extreme.

MOTHER MAGIC.

In dayg of childhood, now long
lapsed and dim,
Often l sat within a holy place
Where mystic word and solemn-roll-
ing hymn
Touched and tranced souls of men
to thoughts of Grace.
Too small to comprehend, yet happy
there
fingered, since beside me, close and
dear,
Sat the sweet mother with her rip
pied hair,
Her smile of angels and her color
clear.
And she would hold my hand. and so
express,
In some deep way, the wonder OF
the hour;
Our spirit talked, by silent tenderness,
AS easily as flower mods to flower.
And to this day, when 1 creep alone
Into some sacred corner, list the
choir,
Hear some great organs most mel
odious moan
And watch the windows flush day
light with fire.
Over me once again these memories
steal;
l sit as in dream, and understand
Gods meaning; for, across the years,
feel
The meek, sure magic of that spirit
hand

Savannah resents the idea that she,
of all others, is intent on violating the

Press. Savannah has its own officials

valance of this idea throughout the
State. They distinctly stated, and re-
iterated, that blind tigers would -four

Columbus Enquirer-Sun.)

1t is not too much to say perhaps,
that upon Georgia depends at least in
a measure the future action of state
legislatures. If the law in Georgia
proves to be of unmistakable benefit
to the state other states will no doubt
enact state prohibition laws, but if it
will apear, after a thorough trial of
the law, that it is detrimental to the
state it is possible that other states
may be little slow in enacting prohi-
bition laws.

We lost it in this daily jar and fret,
