A VICTORY FOR PUBLIC DECENCY

The retirement of James G. Wood
ward from the maycralty race in At
lanta. ensuring the election of Rob-
ert F. Maddox. is a distinct and IN
mistakable victory for decency in
public life. 1t is clear warning to
ali aspirants for public Office that
they must deserve the respect Of their
fellow citizens by their daily lives.
Woodward. as all know, was the
nominee of the Democratic party for
the mayoralty. Under ordinary con-
ditions this was equivalent TO cleo
ton. In a moment of weakness, that
all good men can regret, Woodward
became intoxicated, invaded the ten
derloin district, and brought public
condemnation upon himself by his
conduct. Maddox was nominated as
an independent candidate. 1t was
soon seen that the public feeling OF
decency had been so outraged that
defeat was practically assured. Mon
day Woodward retired from the
race.
We can all feel sorry for Wood
ward, even while commencing the
stand made by the business men
and other citizens of Atlanta who
felt that the good name of the city
was in danger of being further be-
smirched with Woodward in the may
orally chair. Woodward must have
elements Of strength that are not
common to all men, and but for his
apparently unconquerable thirst for
liquor might have enjoyed long
and enviable career in public life
But no city can long endure what
Atlanta has endured with Woodward
as it's chief executive. In his form
er administration he was guilty. We
believe, of some bad breaches OF
public decorum, that brought the
blush of shame to the cheeks OF
the rejecting men of his city. No
one has ever questioned his personal
probity, or his ability to perform the
mayoralty duties satisfactorily but
honestly and ability are not the only
requisites in a public official. Abso-
lutte compliance with the dictates OF
public decency must be insisted
upon by any self-respecting COM
munity. This is what Atlanta has
done in this instance. Much as the
downfall of any man is to be de-
plored, yet it is evident TO all that
Atlanta has taken the proper course.
It has set up a higher standard not
only for itself but for all of the other
cities Of the State. Notice has been
served on all Office seekers that their
lives must measure up to a certain
standard or they cannot expect the suf-
frages of their fellow citizens.

THE PASSING OF THE MARINES
(New York world.)

President Roosevelt's order to
withdraw the marines from the
warships might as well be an order
aboIishing the force. A bill to the
after effect was introduced in Con-
yress a few years ago, but was bur-
led when the gallant record of the
Marine Corps was presented elo-
quently to the House.
Naval officers have long objected
to the presence of marines on board
their ships. The antipathy of the
sailors to seagoing soldiers runs
still further back and is traeeable to
one of the original offices of the
marines-that Of doing police duty
on the ships and of preventing the
of mutinesrs. Go tell

New FurS Sacrificed

We opened on Saturday last our new
stock of furs which the heavy business has
prevented our offering ere this and we will
place them on sale this week at the most enor-
nous concessions.
We debated the question as to whether
or not we should get the furriers of whom we
bought them to take them off our hands. but
inasmuch as the orders were placed last spring
we did not feel that it would be just to them
to make this request. hence we decided to sell
them at sacrifice and if you will come this
week you will buy furs cheaper than you ever
saw them in your life. Don't postpone it but
come at once.
