upon the reserved rights claimed by the
Journal, yet this exercise Of rare self-control
must not be taken as precedent.
10 one newspaper should not be given up
what was meant for mankind; and the Jour
nal need not plead surprise if hereafter we
seize upon some of the Harvie Jordan gems
OF thought which it claims to be private prop
erty
There are some things which, as Blackstone
tells the new beginners are not subject to
private ownership and if mental treasures of
the Harvie Jordan sort do not come within
the reason and spirit of the rule, then, in the
picturesque language of the icnpassioned law
yer, pleading his best case, Cpl eat the book"
At the risk of being sued for damages by
the Journal, | WILL say that one of the
tasks which Harvie now proposes to address
himself to is the breaking up of rasca1ity in
the Liverpool and New York Cotton markets.
Of course; he will soon do this and pass on
to harder jobs. BY the time he puts an end
to Liverpool and New York cotton robberes,
and gets that Fraud Order which he and Liv-
ingston were chasing so hotly last year. per-
haps we may hope that even Harvie Jordan
will condescend to notice this question, which
goes to the vitals of the cotton grower trou-
beS-
why don't you fight the Special Privilege
which has been used to CUT DOWN THE
COTTON MARKET ONE-HALF?"
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-07-04
The End OF an Era.

With the passing of Joe Terrell, as Gov.
ernor of Georgia, there comes the end of an
era in Georgia politics. Would that we could
say, Sin Southern politics.
The record is one that reflects little credit
upon the state. Here and there good work
has been done; now and then, public opinion
has compelled reform; but the balance was
always the wrong side of the ledger True,
the Legislature broadened the scope Of Free
School Education, but the system is far from
perfect. True, the Convicts were no longer
practically given away to the Jim Smiths and
Company, but the pitiful ulSRage paid the state,
even now, looks ridiculous by the side of the
$48 per month which Alabama gets for her
convicts, and the still larger sums which Our
Lessees get from Sub-contractors. True, the
time has passed when the public treasury was
used private bank deposit, and when a
good fellow with pull, like Gunby Jordan of
Columbus, could step into Treasurer Hard
eman's office, and call out, II want $4,000 to-
day, Bob!'-and get it, to buy cotton with
no questions asked and no interest paid But
still it is unreasonable that few pet banks
should continue to use public money without
paying the same rate conceded to private
money.
After due allowance for credit for such acts
as these, the condition of the accounts of the
Steward shows woful mismanagcment of the
Estate.
Has the Law been enforced? Everybody
knows it hasn't. The weak, the poor the
friendless, have been punished but how about
the rich, the strong, and the influential? How
about those who exploit Public Utilities?
These have Knocked the law. They pay
Just about as much taxes they please to
pay and they bend to little more of tn law
than it suits them to obey. Delayed trains
are not posted; station rooms are not lit ZIP
at night rates and classihcations are not put
where they can be readily referred to by ship
pers: extortionate and varying tariffs are inn
posed; equal facilities are not furnished to
all the Trust can get cars when the Independ-
ent cannot and for months at time traffic
has been blockaded by sheer disregard of the
duties of the Common Carrier.

Leabe the Negro ont of 1t.

Whenever the attempt is made to cancel
the fact that the negro is a negro, the results
are disappointing
Race-color, ace-differences, race-preudice,
are eternaly actual. The stubborn reality de-
hes the legislative harmonizer mocks the gen
erous dreamer, and confounds the benevolent
doctr1na1re No matter what illusions we may
have once indulged, it must be apparent at
this late day that the God-made separation of
blacks and whites is not to be reversed by
the puny efforts Of man.
Booker Washington may dine with Andrew
Carnegie and lunch with Roosevelt, but he
never felt "at home" on either occasion, nor
would he ever feel "at home" in any white
mans house. Neither would any white man
ever feel at home" in any negro mans house,
never.
When the Federal Government puts negro
ofhce-holders over the heads of white people.
as it is constantly doing, the arrangement is
always felt to be unnatural, and it always in
fiicts modification upon the whites. Bitter re-
sentiment is felt by the white boys and girls
in Washington City who are compelled to
work under negro bosses.
If | were to tell you how one of President
Clevel lands negro appointees patted the bare
shoulder of lady clerk from Georgia, and
how this same lady, who was the widow of
IhN oOi VI d lOIIllCI OONcIHOT OF georgia, was
hectored and bulled and ordered about by the
burly black negro whom Cleveland's appoint
ment had made her boss-the hot blood would
burn your face!
Where negroes like Lyons and Rucker and
Deveaux, are foisted into places where they
have no business to be, the amount of social
injury inflicted upon the state is beyond cal
culation TI%q
Necessity often compels a white boy or girl,
white man or woman, to take service un-

Our Constitution MUST and SHALL BE

Our statutes must and shall be respected
Our Common Carriers must do their duty

| do not say that Joe Terrell is, himself,
bad man-of that know nothing-wllat I do
say is that he was the product of machine pol
itics of evil type, that his policy favored
Yankee plunderers to the injury of his own
people, that he was chiefly dignifed, rather
nice-looking lid-sitter for lot of rascally
stockholders and law-breakers who ought to
have been put behind the bars, and that dur
ing his entire administration he never lifted
finger to vindicate the law, or to protect the
victims of these corporation robbers.

Greek when he came forth from his tent to

and they put forward that monstrous plea of
Con1scatory to keep rates up, we have seen
the value of the property swell like balloon
being filled for its aerial voyage. When the
ptroller-General, however, gets after these
same corporations for taxes, we have seen the
same property shrink like a dropsed patient
being tapped
Constitutional law which forbids the COM
mon ownership of competing lines has been
treated though it had no existence Stat
ute law which forbids determinations has
been set aside with cynical scorn which can
only be indulged in state where the corpora
tions rule.
In the State of Georgia, the Corporations
have ruled Fhe first great step was taken
when Joseph F. Brown secured the State Road
at $4,000 per month over competing Com
pany which offered twice that amount The
united strength d, ,Toombs and Linton Steph-
ems was insufficient to block the deal
Since that day. we have had Governors who
were in no wise tools of the corporations, but
there has never been any permanent setback
given to marauding combinations
Convict Bosses, Insurance Lobbies, Ferti1-
lzer and Oil interests, School Book Trusts,
railroad influence, bank power the Liquor
Dealers Observation-Disclosures have been the
dominating factors of state-policy.
The Constitution of 1877 was supposed to
have abolished the Lobbv-but when has that
evil influence been greater than during the
corrupt regime of the Hamp McWhorters, the
Harry Fishers, the Tom Felders the Pat Cal
houns?
The Constitution of 1877 was supposed to
have guaranteed Competition among Com
mon Carriers-but see how the Georgia Rail
road is leased to the Atlantic Coast Line, and
the Central owned by the Southern See the
confidence with which the Georgia Road could
forfeit its charter by such neglect of its road
bed as in England, under the Common Law,
would have worked a forfeiture of the
franchise of toll-road See the confidence
with which the Central Road could openly aid
the Cotton Seed Oil Trust to smash the Au-
gusta Brokerage Company, by refusing to
furnish cars to the Independent buyer while
fully supplying the Trust
In law and morals, such misuse of franchise
is forfeiture; but the corporations were in
power, and were fearless
political machine, of course, managed the
political end of all this. A few LAWYERS, pro-
fessonal office-seekers, and subsidized news
paper men-aided and abetted by variety
show of ignorant voters who could still be
fooled with party names and campaign lies
steered for the corporations, kept safe men
in office, kept hurtful facts out of the news
papers; kept serviceable fasehoods in the most
conspicuous columns, and thus "kept the lid
on"
the state down while the Northern corpora
tions plundered it.
| would not devote so much space to these
conditions in Georgia, if they were not prac-
tically the same as those prevailing in most of
the states

THE IRON INDUSTRY.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 2S-The Iron
Trade Review says:
Agricultural implement manufacturers
are nearly all closed for their requirements
for the year beginning July l. Sales have
been very heavy. A large tonnage Of steel
bars Is being used in concrete reinforce
ment work. Users of bar iron are urging
deliveries before the closing Of mills for re-
pairs. Owing to the American Sheet and
Tin Plate Company and the Amalgamated
Association agreeing to maintain the pres
ent wage scale and practically the same
working conditions on sheets and tin
plates. labor troubles for the coming year
are happily averted. Specifications on tin
plate are now light Favorable crop re-
ports are expected to improve conditions
ing made by Independent concerns in from
three to five weeks, and premium prices are
not SO freely paid.
The demand for plates and shapes is
good. Railroad orders are prominent in
the new business of bridge materials The
Bros. will necessitate the purchase of a
considerable tonnage of shapes and plates
The most important contract recently
placed for cast iron pipe was by the city
of Chicago for 2.10O tons.
An important electric interest has closed
for its coke for the year beginning July
IA at 81 per ton at the ovens for standard
foundry grades. Large purchases of fur
mace coke by the Lackawanna Steel Com
pany have improved conditions tempo
rarily. but the outlook is that the supply
of coke will be ample. Quotations on old
and in nearly all .centers the market is
weak.
