lost in the mountain wilds of Vailima,
where the-family Of the late celebrat-

lived far from the madding crowd
in a retirement and atmosphere en-
tirely their own, while the lesser sa-
tellites of the social world were award

1t was indeed, no uncommon occur

happened to be in port, and to submit

to indignities of the photographer, ca

turn for the hospitality afforded them
for which Vailima was famed.
1t was never surprising for the Ste
vensons to behold with trepidauon, es-

honor of a visit, a wagonette load of
eager tourists, properly armed with

wife. Hartman had been fined $500 in
the municipal court on a charge of
having accosted his wife in a dry
goods store. When Mrs Hartman had
finished her testimony the court told
the defense there was no necessity
for them to introduce any evidence.
Hartman had right to come up
and speak to his former wife and even
take her by the arm he said. "As
long as he did not abuse her or swear
at her, he committed no offense. He
had a perfect right to regard himself
as a privileged person in his dealings

ever imposed a fine of $500 on man

AMERICUS AND HER GUESTS.

To-day the editors of the weekly
press of Georgia are the guests of the
city. The charm and hospitality of
Americas and Sumter county has
brought the largest attendance in the
history of the organization. With a
attendance, there is
no doubt that the visiting editors will
have mountaineering good time.
With the single exception of some
inadyertance on the part of tina, much
maligned deity, Jupiter Pluvius, there
is nothing lacking in the climatic con-
ditions to prevent the guests of the
city, who come from all sections Of
the state, from seeing Americas at its
best. Though some may have seen
their equal, it is certain that none 0f
the visitors have seen orchards where
the queenly Elberta is more inviting
or luscious.
1t is somewhat a matter of regret
that the recent prolonged rains viii
not allow the visitors to see the SPLEEN
did roads of tie city and county at
their best, but even with the handicap
of little too much rain the Sumter
county roads are in excellent condi-
ton as usual, a fact which cannot fail
to be noted by those who see them.
With the distinguished speakers not
only from this state but from other
states of the union, the expression of
opinion will be representative of the
entire country. This insures not only
a program that will put the members
of the association in touch with the
current thought Of Georgia but of the
entire country, making the association
indeed a most representative and char
acteristic one for both the state and
national weekly press.

TAFT TO APPOINT FIVE SUPREME
COURT JUSTICES.
(New York World.)

With the appointment of the sue
cessor to the Chief Justice, President
Taft will have three of his appointees
upon the bench. Upon the retirement
Of Justice Moody already provided fOf,
he will have a fourth. 1t is reported
that Justice Harlan, now in his
seyenty-seventh year, contemplates
retirement, making a fifth vacancy.
The President will thus have the ap-
p0intment of a majority of the court, d
responsibility that has fallen upon no
President since Washington.
The Importance Of these appoint
ments can hardly be overstated. The
Supreme Court passes judgment not
only upon all decisions of the lower
courts but upon all acts of Congress
The five men who make up a majority
Of the court are the arbiters of al
most every great issue that arises in
our politics. They are the interpreters
of TIE Constitution and Of statutes. To
them goes the final appeal Their
judgments stand valid against every
tt.ng except revolutions.
The records of our history show
how essential it is to the welfare Of
the nation to have wise and great
Judges upon the Supreme bench.
Marshall and his associates of the
early years of the Republic solved the
pr1blems of their time with an I'M
failing wisdom. Very different was
| it when under other Justices during
the slavery controversy the decision
of THE court, as in the bred Scott case,
| aggravated rather than settled con-
troyersies.
To-day We have problems more diff
ficult than any that confronted Mar
shall or fancy. The facts are more
uncertain and the issues involve the
Interests and passions of larger mass
es of men. More than ever, therefore,
the nation needs learning, integrity
and the highest moral courage on the
Supreme bench. In all the course Of
This term of office President Taft will
have no higher duty than that of nam
| ing these Justices who will be called
upon to deal with problems of the
Republic long after he has retired
from office.
The people of to-day and of the
future will readily overlook a hundred
ordinary mistakes and acts of tact

Republic a court of great Judges COM
Imanding confidence and worthy of the
highest trust imposed upon them. The
