THE COLONIES.
Washington Post.)

There are two of them-a Republi-
can colonel and a Democratic colonel
the first standing for success; the
second for failure. Not a decade ago,
or about that time, the Democratic
colonel was the most conspicuous
personality in the republic, though q
captain without a victory. Since 1901
the Republican colonel, like another
Coriolanus, has been every man him
self"
1t is amusing to note the view each
party takes of its own colonel. In the
Republican camp THEY do not seem to
know exactly what their colonel is go
ing to do; but all alike, regular and
insurgent, are agreed that he is think
ing of and will work for the exaltation
of the G. 0. P.
On the other hand, in the Demo
cratic camp there is a feeling, amount
ing to incipient alarm if not democrat
izing panic, that the colonel is bull ii
a china shop. This impression is moi
confined to the "sane" contingents
but pervades the ranks of the cranks
as we'll. And even enthusiastic Bryan
men of 1908 are asking the portentious
question, us our colonel for US; and
if so, what does he mean?"
Only a while ago the Democratic
colonel issued a general order that
Judson Harmon should not be a can
didate for the Democratic nomination
for President of the United States The
Ohio Democracy rebuked Col. Bryan
for that impertinence, which amounc-
ed to insolence, and did it with empha>
sis, if not with resentment.
And at this writing the Democracy
of Indiana, with fear and trembling,
is debating the question, rs Bryan a
Republican asset?" Until now the In
diana Democracy was ready to swim
the Wabash to hear the Peerless One"
make speech; but in the impending
campaign the consensus of Hoosier
Democracy is that 1.-THE Matchiless'

"a REyEksAfl Of CONDtrTOhs.

From the dawn Of history IL has
proved true that the people that are
best commingled are the most ag-
gressive and progressive.
This is not a reinstatement of the
well recognized fact that the com
posite nations are the greatest ma
lions of the earth. 1t is almost axiom
attic to say that the races that are
made up of several races are for SUI
perior to those where such intermingl-
ing does not occur.
But it also seems true that the
great nation which keeps up a normal
intermingling among the people wita-
in it's own borders is much more likely
to preserve its aggressive and militant
spirit. 1t is this which was limited at
by Hon. Richard H. Edmonds in his re-
cent address before the students of the
Georgia School of Technology at At
lanta.
Mr.. Edmonds spoke of the influx or
Northlerners into the South during re-
cent years, referring to the fact that
conditions were exactly reversed from
those which existed from 1865 to 1900
when many more Southerners Went
North than Northerners came South
The reason for the exodus of young
Southerners from the South during the
period from 1866 to 1900 was that the
South on account Of the devastation
and poverty of the Civil War offered
but little inducement to keep its
young men at home.
The very fact that the reverse Of
these conditions is true now is en-
couraging. Northerners evidently find
promising business possibilities here
otherwise they would not attempt to
come to this section. The South has
grown commercially fact, in every
way-and offers exceptional induce
ments to the young men of other sec
tions. Aside from commercial bene-
fits, the good results thus achieved in
broadening and increasing national
sentiment are invaluable.

THE GOVERNOR Will TELL THEM
ABOUT IT.
Savannah Morning News.)

Some of the members of the Legisla-
ture want to know why the Governor
sent troops to quell the alleged dfsor-
ders at the Durham coal mines last
May without request having been
made of him for assistance by the
Sheriff or any other official of the
county in which the mines are situa5-
ed. There is no doubt that the Gov
ernor will tell them all about it. He
seems to have the faculty of explaining
his acts in way that is not only cred
liable to himself but also satisfactory
to the public. 1t will be recalled that
ne was very severely criticised for his
refusal to purchase the land at Chat
tanooga that the Legislature had au-
thorized him to buy for Western and
Atlantic terminals, but when he gave
the Legislature his reasons for his re-
fusal his critics had nothing more to
say about the matter. In fact, his re-
ply to his critics was so complete and
convincing that they were completely
silenced. We shall be surprised if his
response to the resolution respecting
the calling out of military company
to quell disorders at the Durham coal
mines is not as crushing as was his
reply to his critics in the Chattanooga
land case.
1t is unnecessary to go into the de-
tails of the troubles at the Durham
mines or to explain why the Governor
sent a company of militia there with
out waiting for a call for assistance
from the sheriff of Walker county.
There have been several different
stories published in respect to the mat
ter. AS far as we know the Governor
hasn't given out a statement in de-
Tense of his course. If the resolution
is passed he will have an opportunity
to do so. That his response will be
satisfactory to the people generally
to all who are not seeking to make
political capital out of the incident
we have no doubt. But whether he
was fully justified in the course he
pursued or not, it is certain that he
| thought he was From the represen-
tations that were made to him he be-
lieved that riot of serious proper
tons was threatened, and that the
wise course to pursue was to check it
as promptly as possible. There seems
to be ground for thinking that if it
hadn't been believed that the incident
afforded an opportunity for making
political capital against him his action
in the matter wouldn't have been no
ticed.

THE WEEKLY EDITORS AT

The members of the Georgia Weekly
Press Association have just closed
their annual session at Americas. The
attendance was large, the program in
teresting, and the social features Gu
joyable.
The editors declared themselves on
one of the most important measures
now pending before the Georgia legis-
ture-compulsory education. En-
phatically in favor of it, was their
verdict
And. after favorable comment, they
turned over to their legislative COM
mittee the question of the present leg
islature appropriating $4,000 for the
extension work of the State College of
Agriculture among the women of the
farm, another measure of far-reaching
Importance.

their communities and, therefore, CT
the state. There never was one yet
who wasn't a booster.

TRUCK FARMING IN GEORGIA.

Truck farming in Georgia is receiv-
ing more than passing attention among
the people and the press of the state
A state with such broad and general
possibilities in point of varied sol
conditions as Georgia affords cannot
but offer rare opportunities for the
work of the truck farmer The farm
ers of the state, however, are only
beginning to realize the possibilities
of their fields in this particular.
The assurance is given in a recent
issue of the semi-weekly Atlanta Jour
al that the state is at last becoming
definitely interested in truck farming
The recent meeting of the State Gar
dening Association is cited as an in
stance of the growing interest IN
truck-growing
Referring to Georgia's hardness in
taking up this work, the Journal says
that it has required a long time for
the people of the state to take VI
peach-growing, which in its import
ance has come in a short time to chai-
lenge the supremacy of cotton. The
prediction is made that within de-
cade hence the vegetable crop will
have done likewise.
1t is undoubtedly true that the com
ing years will witness wonderful
growth of the truck-farming idea. The
southern section of the state about Sa-
vannah and other places is fast forg-
ing to the front in encouraging and
supporting truck farming. There is
no reason why, with proper irrigation
the coast section of the state should
not equal the achievements of Charles
ton and Beaufort, S. c., in growing
truck products for the Northern mar
kets. Every city of any size in the
state where truck can be grown-and
there are many of them-can find a
local market for much more of these
| products than are now grown.
The good results to come from the
encouragement of truck growing arc
manifold Many farmers may un.
doubtedly diversifp their crops in
growing truck where the local market
affords sufficient inducements. II
this way lands now out of cultivation
could be utilized and made productive
thereby lowering the cost of living and
aiding the farmer generally. The mat
ter is we'll worthy of the consideration
of the farmers of the state.

You see the red roses still climbing
The old fashioned pillows you

And the knocking birds's music comes
floating
From out Of the distance to you.
You see the bright golden rod bloom
You wander the hillsides again,
Ere you passed from the valleys OF

To tread the rough highways of men;
And the long, Winding road is still
rambling
Far out through the meadows oi

And the bells tinkle sweetly at twi-

AS the driven COWS enter the fold.
The town may be dusty and sleepy,
But there is contentment-and rest ;
And you know every friend is a conl-
