MORE AND MORE BANKS IN
SOUTH GEORGIA.

Savannah is to have new bank. 1t
will be the fifteenth banking institu-
ton in that city. It's capital will prob
ably be $150000 and it will make a
specially of real estate business. It's
promoters regard its success as as
sured before it's doors are open It is
probable that its stock will be over
subscribed, as has been the case with
every bank sttrted in that city.
Twenty years ago Savannah had six
or seven banks. One of these, the old
Central Railroad bank, has gone out
OF business. The number of banks in
the city has at least doubled in that
period. The same is doubtless true uf
the other leading cities of the state. In
Americas there are now five banks,
and one savings institution. Twenty
years ago there were two.
No business has developed and pros
pered more than the banking business
has in Georgia. 1t is an index, and a
reliable one, of the prosperity and.
progress the entire state has enjoyed
in the past two decades While the.
exact facts are not at hand, it is a safe
assertion that by far the greater num-
Der of the new banks instituted since
1890 have been in South Georgia.
Nothing tells more forcefully the story
of the marvellous development of this
section than the vast increase in it's
banking capital Banks are to be found
In every little town in this part of the
state. In some communities of but
200 or 300 people there are one or
two banks, supported by the rapid
opening up of the country and the
savings and demands of the farmers
who are making South Georgia one of
the richest parts of the South.
Banks are never opened and MAIN
tanned except where the demands Of
business call for them AS a general
rule those that have been started dur
ing the past twenty years have flourish.
ed. Few, indeed, have found it neces-
sary to go out of business because of
inadequate support. And the outlook
is that the next few years will see q
further increase in their number. Set
tiers are pouring into South Georgia,
thousands upon thousands of acres
of land are being converted into rich
farms every year, and this increasing

MUST DELIVER ON CONTRACTS OR
PAY LOSSES.

Complaints were quite general this
| past winter that many farmers had
| renigged on their cotton contracts,
that they had sold futures at prices
that were then quite satisfactory to
them, 10 to IL cents, and that, taking
advantage Of the advance in the mar
k2t, they failed or refused to meet
their contracts, entailing heavy losses
on the buyers Of course, There could
be no question as to the dishonorable
character of such actions. If the boot
had been on the other foot the buy
ers would have been compelled to
take the cotton, or been roundIy abus-
ed and sued for breach of contract.
There appears to be no question of
the legal liability of those who sell
cotton futures and fail to deliver them.
This is not gambling contract, in
the sense that many future transact
tons are. 1t is merely selling ahead
that which is to be produced at a
price which is regarded as satisfac-
tory. The fact that such contracts
are binding on both parties has sew
eral times been decided by the courts.
Another opinion on that line strength
ems the position of the buyers. In
the United States Circuit court at
Florence, S. c., Judge Brawley, on
Wednesday, directed a verdict for ST.
GOO difference on such a contract. The
defendants contended that the contract
was invalid, but the court held that
in the absence of any clause providing
for a settlement of any differences
upon expiration, otherwise than by
the delivery of the actual spot cot
ton, the contract was valid, and did
not partake of the nature of a gam
bling contract. This was the first
OF numerous suits instituted, or to be
instituted, on such contracts and the
decision was accepted as having a
very important bearing upon them.
It would be we'll for farmers who
may contemplate making contracts for
future delivery to remember that
such contracts are legal, that they can
be held to them, and that failure to
meet such contracts may involve them

is ATLANTA A CITY OF BAD
MANNERS?

Atlanta and Savannah are about to
engage in another scrap. 1t is not
political but social. 1t revolves around
a question of good manners, the ethics
of the conduct of a gentleman to-
ward a lady when he finds himself
with one in an elevator.
In Savannah they adhere to the Gus
tom of taking off the hat in an ele-
vator when a lady is aboard. In At
lanta they are dropping this as an
utterly absurd custom, based on a
lack of common sense, and not called
for by any of the genuine niceties of
etiquette. In one or more office
buildings at the Capital signs are dis
played to the effect that men need not
remove THEIR hats as it is a public
place like street car or hallway.
This is all quite shocking to Sa-
vannah. The papers there resent the
idea of such a revolution in Southern
manners. 1t was a Savannah boy, it
will be recalled, who remained two
hours and fifteen minutes holding
open the door of New York depart
ment store because he could not, with
out infringing the rules of politeness
let it go when there were still more
ladies to pass through Naturally
the idea of keeping the hat on in an
elevator is quite shocking to those
phere, and the iconoclastic spirit dis
played by Atlanta is regarded as still
another evidence of 1he boorishness
of that city and the fact that it is
foreign and not Southern city in
it's soul.
But in Atlanta some of the old time
folks are opposed to the change and
the Georgian gives vent to expires.
sions of horror at the proposition that
men keep their hats on in elevators
ATLANTA sets the pace for the South,
says the Georgian, which fears that
| from the inspiration of the Atlanta
example THE new custom will spread
Like wildfire through a South Georgia
pine forest after a prolonged drought
And the Savannah Morning News
comes back at the Atlanta contem
porary with this cutting comment:
eff that is true, one might well say
| Then God help the Soulful! At1ant;
| is the least Southern city in the South
| 1t has less of Southern manners ant
customs and courtesy than any of it
| neighbOrs. No Southern city takes
| it's manners from Atlanta Each O
| them has just as good manners o
! it's own"
Inasmuch as Americas is really go
ing to have an elevator in operation
soon at the Windsor hotel, the ques
ton might as well be settled jus
now. But we forgot, hotel elevate
differs from an office building ele
vator. All seem to agree that chat
off, is the rule in the former. AM
as our sky scraper is yet to come w

with Indifference. But we are yer,
much afraid that in the rush and pus1
of the twentieth century conditions tn

HEALING ALL MANNER OF DISEASES
Matthew 2--17.-March

portionate to our readiness to receive
them by faith; for without faith it is
impossible to please God" And those
who cannot exercise faith cannot have
share in the blessings offered under
the Gospel call but must wait for the
demonstrations of the Millenial King
dom.
The circumstance served as a text,
and prophetically the Lord declared
what must have seemed peculiar to his
hearers-that many would come from
the East and -Gentiles-to be
associated with Abraham and Isaac
and Jacob in the Kingdom, while Is
raelites would be cast out of Divine
favor into outer darkness of disfavor
and there have distress. The "outer
darkness" of Gods dfsfavor has been
upon them especially since the de-
struction of Jerusalem.
The Jews fully expected the setting
up of the Millennial Kingdom, but SUP
posed none other than Jews would be
in or of it. The nucleus of the King
dom class was Jewish-from the day
of Pentecost for three and a half years,
to the time when Cornelius was re-
ceived as the first Gentle accepted.
Since then ''the middle wall of parti-
ton" between Jew and Gentle, which
previously hindered the latter from a
full share of Gods favors has been
broken down. During the eighteen
centuries the Lord has gathered or
"called" disciples from all nations. The
faithful of these will constitute. the
Kingdom class. In connection with
these Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will
have an honored place for the blessing
of Israel regathered and through them
the blessing of all the families of the
earth during the Millennium
While the faithful of the Jews viii
- pare the Kingdom, the nation as a
- hole was rejected from Divine favor
,and cast into "outer darkness the
same darkness which covered the Gem
tiles, the world in general. They have
had weeping and gnassing of teeth for
eighteen centuries and according to
the Scriptures, will suffer further yet
before the time shall come when God
will graciously forgive their sin and
save them from their national blind
ness and make them, in connection
with the MiIlennial Kingdom, his in
struments for blessing all the families
of the earth.
No miracle of healing was ever
wrought by the Savior upon any of his
disciples The same is true of the
apostolic healing-the healing bless
ings were all wrought upon those out
side of the discipIeship This was be-
cause the call" of the disciples was
not to human perfection, restitution
and health; but to self-denfal, self
sacrifice, even unto death. Their bless
ings and privileges, above those of the
world, were along spiritual lines. The
awakening Of Lazarus and Dorcas was
not in violation of this rule. neither
was the healing of Peters mother-in-
law, for we have no evidence that she
was a believer and disciple.

Although the Great Teacher healed
all manner of disease, it is a mistake
to suppose that this constituted his
mission as whole or one of its most
important features. His healings were
performed with three ends in view:

(2) To be illustrations of his great
work of the future when in Kingdom
power and glory he shall heal all dis
ease, uplifting mankind out of sin and
death conditions completely.
90 They were tests of the Masters
own faithfulness to his Conservation
Vow. Throughout his healing ministry
he laid down his life, so that after
three and half years of ministry the
Perfect One had so exhausted his vi
tally that he could not carry his own
cross, as could the thieves who ac-
companied him. His great sacrifice
was thus partially laid down before he
