PRESIDENT TAFT AND THE SOUTH

Christian Science Monitor: It affords this newspaper no little pleasure to recall that t was among the earliest to recommend to the attention of filling the vacancy in the Supreme Court by the appointment of Southern Democrat. Evidence was not wanting of course. that the President even before thlS op- portunity presented itself, had displayed nl lpt only wiling, put an eager dik position to fulfill hls promise wit regard to the lgnof- ing of partiA A;an lines Tn the South and the sele, ,etion of men to fiji places of horr rror, responsibility and emolument under the Govern ment. Not since President Cleve!and's dime. however. had
 
 Southern Democrats been recipi- ents of posts in the judiciary, and this occai sion ln a peculiar way seemed to favor a departure wide enough ito convince distlng- uished Southe'rners. whose polit- ics were not in agreement with the dominant party that careers in the public $ ervlce were no ion- ger closed to them.
 Judge LurtoE In, President Ialt s nominee. is a hative of Kentucky and has long bIeen resident of Tennessee. Just as the judicial duties of Judge Taft often LOOK him into the South, so the Judlcl- al duties of Ju dge Lurton often bring him intol the North. 1t was. indeed. when a Judge ot the same circuit, the Sixth, that Judge Taft became acquainted with Judge Lurton, and It was through this experience that the former learned | huch about the South and it's nee eds that is prov ing very useful 4nd valuable to him as President

OBITUARY OF OSCAR JOHNSON

Brother Oscar Johnson was born November 18th, 1873; was married to Miss Nonie Moore in 1900. He departed this life Octo Der llth. 1909. He was 35 years, 10 months and 2 days old. He leaves a wife, two children, three brothers. four sisters and many friends to mourn his death. Oscar died in the prime ot life. We miss him as a friend and neighbor. but Gcd who knows best saw fit to move him from Us for some unknown purpose. We miss him, he was always ready to help in sickness or anywhere he saw help was needed \ few years ago Oscar proteSsed faith in Christ and lived d consistent member of the Methodist Protes- tant church. Oscars sickness was of short duration. He was taken bad sick on Sunday and died Monday. His death was great shock to us. Oscar had many friends who attended his burial. The services were con- ducted by Rev. Alfred Turner. Oscar is gone from us but is not forgotten. He was a kind lov- ing husband. He lived a married life little over nine years and never had cross word with his wife. Oscar obeyed the com mand of St. Paul. Husbands love your wives" which many of us cannot say.
 Oscar did not during his sick ness talk of dying. he was in much pain and suffering. He lived quiet peaceful life while here with us. If he had an enemy never knew 1t, and l have known him ever since he was little boy.
 Why do We mourn departed
 friends
 Or shake at deaths alarm? 'Tis but the voice that Jesus
 sends
 To call them to his arms. We loved him, yes We loved him.
 But angels loved him more, And sweetly they have called
 him
 To wonder shining shore. The Golden Gates were open,
 A gentle voice said. Come And with Farewell unspoken
 He calmly entered home.
 By his friend,
 J. II. Hall.

TO MAKE CHANGE IN
ATLANTA PUBLIC SCHOOL

Atlanta, May 30.-A great change
will be made in Atlanta's public school
system. The superintendent and his
assistants will hereafter nominate all
the teachers. Heretofore, the selec-
ton of teachers has been made entire
ly by the board of education without
consulting the superintendent. The
change was recommended by the
teachers committee and will revo-
lutiOnize the school system so far as
the selection of teachers is concerned.
The superintendent of the schools
is w. NJ Slaton, and his assistant, l..
NJ Landrum. Their recommendation
in the future will be subject to the ap-
proyal Of the board CT education. 1t
is quite clear however, that the scope
Of the superintendent authority is
vastly enlarged.

WANTS State AfO
TO PASS MEASURE
WHICH WILL AID TUBERCU-
LOSIS PATIENTS.

Atlanta. May 30.-The coming ses-
sion of the Georgia legislature will be
called on to pass legislation that will
insure state aid for tuberculosis pat
tents. Just at the present time the
interest in this subject is intense. Not
only the anti-tuberculOsis society, but
quite a large number OF the promin-
ent citizens Cf Atlanta, are taking a
hand. The assistance of a number OF
tuberculosis experts has proven a
great help in this movement. Among
the experts who have contributed much
towards the success of the anti-tuber-
culosis movement in Georgia is DR..
George Brown. When asked today
for an interview. DR.. Brown said;
There is no life Insurance company
in the world that could do business
successfully without having accurate
reliable statistics on which to base
their calculations. 1t is these statis-
tics that enable them to figure their
profits along a line in order to run
their business successfully. 1t is the
same way with patient that has tu-
berculosis. He L1l the choice or two
things; one is to take the sc-called
home treatment, and the other is to
accept the advice Of all the authori-
ties of the world who treat this dis
ease and go to a properly equipped
sanitarium. The home treatment cures
three people oIt of one hundred that
is three get we'll and ninety-seven die.
The sanitarium treatment cures from
sixty-twc to eighty two per cent.
There is a large majority of pat
tents continued DR., Brown, who can
not nav the rates for sanitarium treat
ment and one may we'll ask, WHAT Is
to become of these patients? The
answer is they are going to die at
the rate of 10000 per year. just IKE
they are doing right now in the United
States. They are going to continue
to do this until the voters OF TINS
country force the politicians and leg
islators to appropriate money enough
to take care of these people. That
j., the Cnly hope in this world tor the
army of 10000 people which march
through the streets of this country to
their graves each year-an army
without banners, drums or musician
army of sad-faced men and women
bearing upon their countenances the
stap of death which walk ancared for
and stunned through the commercial
marts of this country-without nope
without food, without proper atteh-
tion. until the grave ends it all

TO INvITE CHIEFS
BRUNSWICK WILL EXTEND INVl-
TATION TO THE FIRE CHIEFS
OF GEORGIA..

Brunswick will invite the fire chiefs
of Georgia to hold their annual con
ventiOn in Brunswick in 1911. The in
vitatiOn will be extended by the mayor
and council through Chief f. F. Tay-
lor, who will attend the convention
The chiefs will meet in Savannah
tomorrow in regular state convention
and it is expected that the meeting
will be an unusually lar~e one. Heads
of fire departments fluH pr& ically
every city in the state will be present.
An informal meeting was held by
The council committee on fire yester-
day afternoon, at which it was decid-
ed to invite the chiefs next year. If
Brunswick is successful in her effort
to secure the meeting it will mean
quite a large convention for the city
as the meeting is attended not only
by the fire chiefs themselves. but by
number of underwriters, representa-
tives of the various fire apparatuses,
etc.
1t is not known whether or not any
other Georgia cities will make a fight
for the convention, but Chief Tayl1r
will make every possible effort to land
the meeting for Brunswick.

SEASON TO
OPEN UNUSUALLY EARLY
Present War Between Companies Will
Be The Cause of 1t.

Manager Finney, of the Grand yes
terday received a letter from Klaw
& Erlanger who will do all the book
ing for the Grand, announcing that
in all probability the theatrical season
in Brunswick would open unusually
early this season, probably the first
week in August, instead of the latter
part of September, as has been the
case in the past.
This condition, it seems, is brought
about by the war now being wageu
between Klaw & Erlanger and the
Shuberts. The former concern will
send a number of companies to New
Orleans for the season, and they will
play all Klaw & Erlanger cities on
route to New Orleans. These COM
panies will start out from New York
earlier than usual and will therefore
advance the season about six weeks.
Manager Finney seems very much
nleased with the outlook for a very
good season. His is one of the few
theaters in Georgia still booked by K.
& F.. and for this reason, while there
will not be as many companies as in
the past, he expects to get high-class
ones.

MADE TRIP IN ONE DAY.
Roads Between Brunswick and Thorn
asville in Good Condition.

The following interesting item con-
cerning an automobile trip between
Brunswick and Thomasville, was sent
out from the latter city
&C. W. Cooper of this city made the
trip from Brunswick to Thomasville
in his automobile this week in day
Mr.. Cooper left Brunswick at o'clock
in the morning and reached Thorn
asville at that evening, making stops
along the route which consumed three
hours of the time.
This is unusually fine travelling C n
sidering the fact that it was made
on the ordinary roads of the county
and of course would have been very
much shortened if all the counties
passed through had gone into the good
roads movement.
One great feature of the extensive
travelling which is being done by auto
mobiles now is the .ringing OF the
various towns around the country
nearer together and giving the inhab-
itants of them a more intimate &C
ouanitance with each other. Hereto
fore many people only had an loea
of the neighboring towns from What
thev saw of them from the car WIN
dows but in going through in auto
mobiles thev are enabled to rlde
around and see all points OF interest
in them.
This mode of travelling helps the
good roads movement also as WheE
the people in one town learn that d"-
other is popular with automoplleS Oh

examples of this having been SHOWN
in the towns in this section, poth Ill

which were avoided on account OF the
poor roads are now the NEST popular

Totals. 33, ,4O6. 900 S2,324.OO0

The total estimated increase Ct cot
ton acreage in the United States for
1910 is 3.3 percent or1 ,0S0,000 acres
more than last year and the average
planting of the crop is II days later
than last year. The high prices that
have prevailed for the past year has
resulted in general increase in acreage
particularly in Texas and Oklahoma.
The freezing weather in April caus-
ed considerable damage and necessi-
tated a great deal of replanting. For
tunately this occurred at time when
less than 80 per cent, of the crop was
planted and only part of this above
ground During the past two weeks
copious rains have fallen over the en-
tire belt but there have been COM
plants of continued cool weather. The
Texas crop promises to break all re-
cords.
Warm, seasOnable weather during
June is now all that is necessary to
assure a satisfactory crop,
