WHAT WAS OGLETH0RPE,s NAME

Ask the average well informed Geor-
gian what was OgIethorpe's full name
and he will tell you that the founder
of Georgia was James Edward Ogle-
thorpe.
Go to any current history, or to any
encyclopedia, apparently, and there
you will find the same statement.
But was Oglethorpe christenet
James Edward? There's the rub. AS
matter of fact he may have been. and
then he may not have been.
Dr.. Burroughs, of Brunswick, who
delyes persistently in matters per-
tanning to the early history Of the
state, says that he has never been able
to find any authentic record to show
that Oglethorpe was ohristened any.
thing but James.
In a number Of historic documents
ne finds him simply plain James ana
not James Edward.
On his seal, of which the Brunswick
historic researcher has a Photographic
reproduction, the name is simply
James Oglethorpe
DR.. Burroughs insists that the pre-.
ponderance of evidence is against call
ing Oglethorpe James Edward. He Ger
tainly, the doctor insists. never 81
called himself. Oglethorpe signed
himself James, never James Edward
or James E., and if Edward was
thrust on him as a helpless infant he
repudiated the middle name as soor
as he came to the years of maturity.
The question is one of more thar
passing interest just now when the
state and the city Of Savannah are
about to erect a monument in Savan.
nah to the memory Of the founder O.
the state. Care should be taken tc
have the name correctly inscribed. Il
would certainly be ridiculous to have
some one come along, after the inscriD-
ton was on the monument, and point
out that the name was erroneous.
II OglethorDe was plain James lei
him be called so. But in any event let
the question be decided promptly. Ii
is comparatively small matter but on
a monument, above all places. the
name should be correctly given.

has accomplished that feat, she mustn't
aspire to become a really great force
in opposition to the boys"
But there is another side to this
question. What in the name of time
are we going to do if the women all
turn men? Where will we find soft.
smooth hands to press, if they are
spoiled by months of hard work at the
oars, or skinned and bruised on the
gridiTon.
THE sensibilities of the fair seq al
so must become less delicate. When
the girl athlete sees a stripped giant
on the field with his legs clothed only
by skin, she mustn't say shameful. for
she will have to do the same thing. No
one can run with clothes cIinging to
their limbs. Nor is a prize fighter an
pareled too plentifully.
/ believe in giving girls every
chance in the world to make III. kneel
at their feet in athletics as well as IN
law and medicine" says one. .But
this question Of how they shall dis
guise themselves when doing 'st11n-s'
had better be looked into pretty
thoroughly. We would have to bufld a
park as big as the State Of Delaware
70 accommodate the vast crowds when
ever a field day is pulled off. Men
would flock to see-the racing and
other events, and business would be at
a standstill."
But these consultations ar beside
the question. Given woman's physical
superiority, will she temper her rule
with mercy? VIII she love, comfort
protect, and cherish him in return for
centuries of masculine chfyalry while
ner sex remained subject? Or will
she emphasizes mans inferiority, as in
the case of the lower orders of life in
which the female dominates?

G. o. p. TROUBLES IN NEW YORK
AND OHIO.

New York and Ohio are probable
pivotal states in the next presidential
election. If the democrats can carry
either one of these states it is more
than probable that they will carry sui
ficient others to make a winning race
of it-provided, of course, that Bryan
does not assume the job of standard
bearer again.
The republicans are aware of this
and hence the anxiety that prevails
over the conditions existing in the
party in both of these states, the
discussions within the ranks, and the
effect on the public mind of the ex-
posures of graft and other rascaliry
among the party leaders.
In New York the order has gone
forth that the probe must go in deep.
This is putting the best political face
on the matter possible 1t is too
late to cover up the grating, the ex-
posures are bound to come, and polit-
zeal acumen dictates that a show of
outraged virtue must be made. So
the public is informed that the party
is aggrieyed at the rascality Of some
| of its members, that they will be
scourged and driven from the temple.
and all Will once more be clean and
sweet and pure within the G. 0. P.
till the next batch of rascals are
uncovered.
At a recent conference in the me-
tropolis attended by President >>&.t,
Governor Hughes and other leaders Of
the party in New York state, the
conditions in that state were can
vassed and admitted to be bad for
the party in power Every effort IS
to be made toward a house cleaning
that will rehabilitate the party in the
eyes of the public before the coming
congressional elections.
Out in Ohio, too, the presidents
own state, the outlook is far from be-
ing roseate for the republicans. Gov.
ernor Harmon and his aides are .ex-
posing republican rascaIity and
Strengthening themselves with the
public as a result, So anxious is the
president about his own state that
Wade Ellis has been detached from
the department. of justice and made
political manager for Ohio, in an ef-
fort to bring about republican success
in the approaching elections. AS Ellis
is well up in corporation secrets this
is construed as meaning that the cor
porations are expected to cough MP
and use their influence, under the
pressure he is in position to ex-
ert, to insure a G. o. P. victory.
If the democratic party were united
on the old long tried and thoroughly
established principles for which 1t
stood during the first century Of its
career the opportunity to infict a
stunning defeat on the republican par
ty this year would be most excellent,
paving the way for a brilliant victory
two years hence. But split as it is
on so many of the questions of the
hour it is just as probable that the
republicans with their usual good
luck, conditioned on the exercise of
ordinary hores sense, will be enabled
to pluck victory from the very jaws
of defeat.

AN UNLISTED LOCALITY.
Carolyn Wells.)

I wish I was as big as men,
To see the Town of After Ten:
I've heard it is so bright and gay,
It's almost like another day.
But to my bed I'm packed off STRAIGHT
Wnen that old clock strikes half-past
eight
It's awful hard to be a boy
And never know the sort of Joy
mat grown-up people must have
when
They're in the Town of After Ten.
I'm sure don't know what they do,
For shops are closed, and churches
too,
Perhaps with burglars they go round
And do not dare to make a sound
Well, soon I'll be a man, and then

strongly in the same direction until
the Georgia congressman got the
floor and by a strong argument 10
the contrary is said to have convinced
sufficient number of his colleagues
to bring different decision from
that reached in the senate
The Washington Post defends the
position Of the senate and denies the
legal or constitutional accuracy If
the arguments made by Congressman
Brantley That paper discusses
Brantley's speech, commenting sar-
castically. Says it, in part:
Now, as both houses were in the
same boat, one would think that the
impulses of courtesy and cohesion
would prompt desire to find a com
mon ground upon which to stick to-
gether and present a united front.
But the house, having grasped the
wrong horn Of the dilemma and be-
ing therebythrown into confusion. ii
was properly minded to break with
its natural allv and desert To the
enemy. Still apparently aiming al
the senate, though not naming that
body Mr.. Brantley asserted that for
the house to take any other position
than that recommended in the ma
jOrity report would be to put into
the hands of the lawIess, of the an
archists, and Of those who habitualIy
defy the law the powerful weapon OF
being able to assert that the congress
has denounced the courts of the
country as usurpers of power and
liberty"
Mr.. Brantley finished the task OF
restoring the mental equilibrium OF
his befogged colleagues by asking
them: What is the objection with
or without precedenD to this, the
/ highest legislative body in the land
showing a proper resDect to IFS ornat
/ coordinate department, the judiciary
by permitting its members to respond
/ to lawful summons?" Having thus
/ ly decorated both the house and the
| courts with one bouquet Mr.. Brant-
/ ley moved the previous question tC
/ its final passage.
| Contrasting the house proceedings
with the debate in the senate earlier
| in the day it does not appear clear
that Mr.. Brantley's speeckaae pine
would claim for it, wQ9sN 1urn-
