A VERDICT TO

Live Oak Democrat.

Probably no verdict OF deeper sig
nificance or that viii exert a wider
influence was ever rendered in the
South than that of the jury in Union
City, Tenn. q few days ago which
convicted eight night riders of the
murder of Capt. Rankin and gave SIX
of them the death penalty and the
other two twenty years each in the
pen. In all that part of Tennessee
and the nearby regions of Kentucky
the very foundations of civilization
have long been shaken by the in
creasing crimes of widely organized
maIefactors claiming to have gTiev-

from punishment resulting from the
terrorism they created, went from one
form of outrage to another until the
elimination came in the peculiarly
brutal and cruel murder of Capt. Ran

r The following editorial from the

ton:
The cotton ginned in the South of
the crop for 1908 is stated at 12,000,-
600 bales to the LIST of January, and
the end is not yet. This has a gold
value of apprOximating $500, 600,
and as its production is confined to
not over u states it can readily be
perceived what a tremendous amount
of wealth is concentrated into those
states by this single product. BY its

shipping brought to its ports by the

is now acquiring coming from its

natural resources until the Southland

The South Still Has
Something to Say.

There has reached The Journal an
unpretentious pamphlet entitled, The
South and the National Government .
by the Honorable William Howard
Taft, President-elect of the United
States. It contains Mr.. Taft's speech
delivered at the dinner of the NORTH
Carolina Society in New York, the
seventh of last December. We read
before a resume of this speech and
noted the intention of our next presi-
dent when he uttered it, and appre-
ciated the one prevailing element in
the whole discussions tacit of good
will, but lack of comprehension
Mr.. Taft was neither born nor raised
in the South, and he, of course, must
be excused for this shOrt-coming.
There is something, however. worthy
of comment concerning the speech of
the gentleman who introduced Mr..
Taft at the New York Dinner. His
name is Walter H. Page-a name we
bl az on in the South, an illustTiOus
name which adorns the history of
more than one of the sisters who have
ratified the sanity proposals for a
free government made by the faith
ers But this Walter H. Page, like
many SOutherDers who have sought
VIC alth in New York, has misappro-
pri8ted the brains inherited from his
forefathers, to hold up The patriotic
political attitude of. the South as a
theme for scorn and derision.
With this Page, then-a peculiar
page in Southern histOry-The Jour
nal has something to do. And the
following quotations from his speech
will sufficiently state our position.
His theme was that what he called
the 'solidity," but which sensible men
call the solidarity" of the South
should be broken up. And these are
the words he said:
"A republican administration or a
democratic administration is a pass
ing incident in our national history
THE South neither contributes to the
nations political thought and inffu-
ence, nor receives stimulation from
the nations thought and influence.
It's real patriotism counts for nothing
is smothered dumb under party sys-
TENS that have become crimes against
the character and the intelligence of
the people
This wonderful personality as an
expounder of the thought and the ca
paeity for thought, of Southern States
men would do mighty well to revisit
his old home. The trouble with him
is that he has gone after the shekels
and forgotten his forefathers.
It's hard to blame him these DAYS,
but We can't help it; becauses- if he
had his eyes wide open he would see
the immense influence the South has
when even the State of New York is
beginning to think that it's wrong to
allow gamblers to control its inter-
ests, thus following the lead of the
South; and it may also be added that
the great mOrsa awakening that is
visiting the entire country had its
origin in the Southern states.

Preparing For a
Greater Education.

Nothing has given The Journal
more genuine delight than the report
of School Superintendent Cook that
the cOunty's schools have been SO
well attended this year as to require
new desks to accommodate the pu-
pills It seems that this season there
are enough additional pupils over last
year to require the employment of
desks which had been Telegated to
the ash-piIe, but which are now
brought into use to provide means for
the children OF Escambia to prepare
themselves for the duties which they
will have TO perform as the future eX-
ecutors of the responsibilities which
VIII be bequedthed to them by the
present generation.
The more of the children who seek
education the better the sign of the
times, and all praise is due the am
bilious spirit and wise provision
which have guided our county author
tiles TO be in readiness to supply
such a demand.
