When the hills of Oak Ridge
cemetery sent back the echo Of
TAPS" sounded over the grave
of Mayor David S. Griffiths late
last evening, Springfield had full
filed its last obligation to it's
lately horored executive. The
body was laid to rest and all save
memory of the work of the
treacherous waters that claimed
his life was over.
When members of the stricken
family and thousands of friends
turned away from the flower
laden grave, the setting sun sig.
nifled that the day was done.
Sobs. shilling the notes of the
notes of the bugle, sounded from
distant hills; the clatter of the
last volley was deadened by the
rum BILE of departing carriages
and cavalry Those who had as
sembed left only the sexton to
smooth the mound of earth that
marks the final resting place of
the man they honored.
From the time the long funeral
cOrtege left the Griffiths resi-
dence on South Walnut street
until it reached beautiful Oak
Ridge, the thoroughfares en-
route were crowded Men stood
with barred heads while the pro.
cession wendell its was toward
the burial ground and women

At the last General Assembly,
a law was passed requiring all
cities, Incorporated, to elect the
mem bers of it's school board by
direct vote of the people. We
favor this law and we favor one
coloreJ man at least on this
board. We hope if this election
is brought up during the special
election for choosing a mayor, a
colored man will be placed on the
ticket. What we want now is
some encouragement for celored
teachers. We should have at
least a dozen teachers over the
city.
We must not expect too much
neither must we acquiesce in too
little. GIVE the opportunity and
if we d"n't meet the require.
mepts, its our fault and ours

oeorsla's New Governor.

&eOrQlaS new 1oVSFnors
In his inaugural address Georgia's
new governor, Hoke Smith, intensified
the line of demarcation between the
white and the black races by saying
that any plan to aid the negroes which
failed to recognize the racial differ
ences would not succeed. He insisted,
further, that the negro had the same
opportunity to develop that other races
had before slavery days, and that
slavery improved the black race, while
majority of the negroes in that state
had ceased to improve since slavery
was abolished. He thought that few
had been helped by learning from
books, but that all had been helped
who had been taught or made to work.
Nevertheless he recognized the duty of
the white man to be absolutely just
