GEORGIA RACE WAR IMMINENT.

Fitzgerald, Ca, Sept. 13-The militia is to-
day under arms to prevent second attempt
to drive the negroes from their quarters. Gov
Hoke Smith has been notified that race trouble
is threatened There has been feeling here
against negroes for some time. Yesterday 1T
eliminated in a raid or them 10y mob OF men
and bows Before the mob did much harm, it
was dispersed by the sheriff and chief of police
at the head Of posse of business men. Tween
ty-seven members of the mob were arrested.
During the day many threats against negroes
were heard. Fitzgerald is new town, settled
by Indiana and Ohio colonists, largely G. A.
r. men, There are few southerners in the
place-Woman's National Daily.
The paper above quoted has large circulation
throughout the United States. 1t is hard to esti-
mate the harm to Fitzgerald and the South the
publication of the false report will do.
1t is libel on this colony, and puts the onus
on the Northern Colonist who came south to make
their home in the black belt. The truth is
there are northern men as well rs native Georgians
among those who are trying to ward Off the black
blight. TheIe is no distinction between the colo
MIST and crackers, the caucasian instinct, rrepres
sible and eternal, is the same.

Takes Brains and Science 10 Win,

That football is game OF brains
and an exact science was demonstrated
at jackson when the j NJ \. team
wrested the championship Of Southeast
Missouri from their heavier aud more
experienced rivals, the MoJthut team.
The jackson coach had seen the
Cape NormaI-Moothart game and had
trained his prolegcs accordingly. Their
defense aud tactics were developed
along the line that was most disastrous
to the mediocre, half mastered plays
that the Mootharts had attempted to
perfect with limited practice.
j NJ a. was team that was the
outcome Of much thought followed up
by hard, conscientious pra ctIce. They
were fit physically. This was to be
their one supreme effort Brains aud
condition won the day against the in
dyidual proves Of few Of the mem.
bcrs of the MoUthart team.
When Mootbart mau attempted to
advance the ball it was he individually,
while on the other hand when Jack.
son man attempted the same thing he
had the assistance and cooperation Of
every member OF that team--eaGh man
was only one. eleventh, and every man
was the right peg in the right hole nj
the right time. 1t was their bfainy
coach aud their superb team work that
won the day.
Theirs was o perfect machine, Il
marvellous organization, in which the
minutest detail bad not been over
looked. They set traps and the Moot
hart "stars" walked into them. Their
strategy was everywhere apparent.
The Moolhart team was one of won.
derlul individual strength, but wit bout
practice there was no harmony, no OF.
ganizslion, no cooperation, no dis
cipiine--none of that maChiue-like pre-
cision that is so necessary in this game
of brains aud Drawn.
IT'S true that the Moolhart backs
bp dint of their own individual work
would tear eff thirty or forty yards,
which gave the Jackson rooters many
scare, but individual prowoss had to
succumb to brains, and brains tri.
umphed by narrow margin.
The people OF Jackson love this
noble, viyacious game. They are
square, hospitable and loyal; they are
consistent; they DO not decry football
as brutal; they know that horses,
skating. rowing, oase ball and all these
sports contribute far more fatalities
each year; they do not prohibit their
little willie from playing, and on
the ith of July allow him to handle
fireworks, practice which produces
thousands of deaths in one day.
They are fair minded and are wise
enough to know and kind enough tn
admit that the Moothart team under
the same conditions, environment and
discipline, and with the same amount
of practice, would have triumphed
