up his machine on the plantation OF
Gen. Nathaniel Greene near the pre-
sent location of Monteith, in 1893.
The invention of the gin was the first
great factor in cotton raising develop
ments as the inventions of Arkwright
were in manufacture. The machine
did away with the tedious and unsat-
isfactory hand method. Almost imme.
diately the acreage in cotton increas-
ed largely. Savannah handled very lit
tie cotton till after Whitney construct
ted his gin. Savannah exported the
first bag of cotton ever sent from
America to foreign country.
1t was also near this city that the
first sea-i(land cotton was grown.
The experiments with the culture of
this staple were first made by Josiah
Tatnall and Nicholas Turnbull, on
Skidaway island. The seed was origi-
nally brought from the Bahama Is
lands in 1885. The establishment of the
cotton trade is the keynote of Savan-
nah's commercial prosperity.
Whitney was born in 1865, in Mas
sachusetts, He came south as a
school teacher, migrating from place,
to place until he was finally taken
in by the widow of Ben Green as tu-
tor in the family. The gin was com
pleted in the winter of 1792-1793.
The model of the machine was shown
by Mrs. Greene to few of her neigh
bors, the possibilities of the inven-
ton being so apparent as to create
universal interest and comment. AS
result, INSCRIPTIONS persons broke
into the place where the model was
kept and carried it away. It is said
that many similar machines were in
active operation throughout the coun-
try before the Whitney invention was
perfected and patents secured, which
was not done until year later.
In spite Of the universal use to
which the cotton gin has been put
and the revolution in the cotton in
dustry which it precipitated, there is
no stone to mark the memory of the
inventor in this section where he liv-
ed and worked and where the machine
was perfected 1t was not until Mr..
Brandon came to Savannah to try
out his Improvement on the Whitney
invention that any notice was taken
OF this lack of official recognition on
the part Of the people of Savannah
and Georgia, Mr.. Brandon immediate

TO TIP OR NOT TO TIP.

To tip or not to tip, that is the
question. Wether it is wiser to en-.
dure the covert sneers of minions, or
by generous tipping to end it all, and
thus secure attention above ones
neighbors, though one may call this
but lesser form of bribery
Ones mind runs somewhat after
that fashion nowadays, since tipping
has become so universal a practice.
Perhaps the bothersome question will
not worry us much longer, for legis-
lators are taking up the matter. and
even so august a body as the House
Committee of the District of Columbia
are considering a bin to abolish the
practice, which they very aptly term
nuisance. The measure provides
that any proprietor, manager, waiter,
or servant. of any hotel, restaurant,
or cafe, in the city of Washington
who accepts a tip shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and fined not to exceed
$500. A second and far more i'm
portant clause stipulates that any per-
son who offers tip shall be guilty
and subject to the same penalty. The
bill is based on the simple principle
that the Upper is as bad as the tippee
like the bribe-giver and the bride
taker.
The American has never taken
kindly to the tipping system, not SOLE
ly because he begrudges the money,
| but because the practice goes against
the grain of the American spirit It
intimates a certain attitude of ser.
Witty on the part Of the one receiy.
ing the tip and that attitude is un.
American 1t smacks too much OF
the Old World way of regarding ones
| fellowman.
But the practice, despite the hos
tile feeling toward it, is growing. The
proposed measure shows what a foot
hold it has. But the proposed meas
ure will not be effective unless back
ed up by public opinion. 1t will sim
ply be a dead-letter law.
The people who tip lavishly and
unthinkingly are, of course, the rich:
But their action makes it necessary
for the less wealthy to tip if they
hope in many places to secure any

PEACE ASSURED
BY NEW TREATY

ST. PETERSBURG, July 1.-THE
Novoe vremya in a leading article
today expresses great expectations
from the Russo-Japanese convention.
The Vremya considers it a foundation
for durable peace in the Far East,
serving as a barrier against the en-
croachments of outsiders in that
sphere adding that Russo-Japauose re-
lations relieve Russia and Japan of
the burden of heavy ornaments, en-
abling Russia to complete the Amur
Railroad and continue colonization
on a vast scale.
The Vremya declares that the situa
ton created by the convention is unfa
vorable to Korea, China, America and
the central European powers in so fan
as their policies are based on a con
tinuation of misunderstanding be
tween Russia, China and Japan. Il
considers that Secretary Knox
Manchurian proposal was instrument
al in fastening the conclusion of the
convention.
