GENERAL CLEMENT A. EVANS.

1t is not often that an individual plays as con-
spiouous and important part in the affairs OF
life as did the late Clement A. Evans. During his
career Of seventy nine years he entered the gate
way OF many fields of varied interest and activ-
ity. and into that comparatively short period he
crowded much of useful service. Wherever he
appeared he attracted admiration by his con-
spicuous ability and whatever he attempted he
did we'll
He was early in life lawyer OF parts and
promise, rising to the honor of judicial position
at the age of twenty-five. and four years later
entering the Senate OF his State.
AS minister Of the gospel in the Methodist
Church he rose rapidly to prominence and infu-
ence, holding such important pastorates as those
Of Athens, Rome. Augusta, and Atlanta
AS man Of affairs. he was prominently iden-
tilted with large financial interests In his native
State. being one OF the promoters Of the Augusta
and Chattanooga Railroad; president OF the Au-
gusta Improvement Company. and also Of the
Augusta Land Company. .. ,s..... a.,~
But it was as Confederate soldier that he Is
best known and loved. and will be best remem-
bered in his Southland He rose In rank through
conspicuous merit and by petition Of his COM
rades until he occupied the responsible posi-
ton OF division commander. He was a brave
and dashing officer. who always led his men into
the engagement: the scars OF many wounds
mutely testN1ng to the courage and earnest
ness with which he fought for the principles he
held After the conclusion of hostiiitics he was
active In promoting the organization and de-
velopment Of tho camps of Confederate vete-
rams, and became their commander in-chief.
which position he held until inca.acitated by in
creasing age and inhrmty.
One by one these gallant defenders Of the
honor and rights Of their native Southland are
going over the river to rest meath the shade OF
the trees. An appreciative people will ever hold
their names in grateful remembrance.

THE SPIRIT OF 10.

The minds of many men will to-day wander
back through the passing years; and, under the
guidance Of fervid orator or the inspiration OF
patriotic song the fires OF days long gone will
kindIe again as memory keeps company the
while with the heroic figures and stirring
events that ushered In the birthday of a new
republic .~.e...,.....s,..s....,. ...-
6 Great revolutions are slow in coming to birth
Years OF oppression; Of the encroachment OF ty-
ranny upon the domain OF liberty; OF individual
hardship and suffering are often required to &C.
ment a people into a compact mass. willing to be
hurled with indignant violence against the
nsurpation OF power and the deprivation OF
rights The ordinary course is that OF appeal,
then protests. But appeal and protest long ignoF'
ed the masses find last recourse in the resort
to force. Once the revolution breaks out and
the pent up indignation Of the populace sweeps
like q prairie fire from held to field; and the
physical strength OF man. hitherto restrained by
reason, breaks all bounds and with rapidly In
oppression and injustice.
Thus 1t was in the early days Of this republic.
Revolution was last resort. 1t WAS born only
in the throes Of outraged Justice and fmpotent
appeal for relief. The colonies were slow to as
sert independence They challenge the admira-
tion OF world In their constant declarations
OF loyalty to England and In their patience un-
der the atrocious administration OF an obstinate,
but obtuse monarch. Following the Stamp Act,
and later the closing to commerce OF the port of
Boston the thirteen colonies assembled their
representatives In the first Congress at Phila-
delphia to protest against what they declared
10 be the invasion Of the indefeasible rights Of
colonies under the British Constitution. The
answer Was that 3,ooo soldiers were marched
TO Boston. The result of iinging force in the
faces of an aggrieved people was inevitable.
Concord. Lexington. Ticonderoga witnessed the
clash Of arms and smelled the smoke OF battle
Still reason in sober minds refused to abdi-
rate its throne to passion, and q second Congress
declared that the colonies held no desire to sep
I arate from the mother country. but only to
4 anAiutAin their. chartered rights; and aharmed
that the militia had taken arms only In defense
o. liberty and property. and pledged TO lay them
down when this was guaranteed

as6espair. It was ssriously and generally under
ukood that the only promise Of relief lay In the

CURRENTCOMMENT
Decline in the Birth Rate.

Professor Wilcox Of Cornell University. chief
for the census of 1900. declares that
1t is erroneous to say that the American birth
rate did not begin to decline until 1880. This
decline began. he says. in 1910. and there has
been steady decrease during. the hundred
years gone. In the absence Of proper stats
tics, Professor Wilcox has prepared a table
giving the number OF women in the United
States between the ages OF sixteen and forty
four. and the number OF children under Ave
years OF age at each ten-year census period
from 1910 to 1915 In 1910 there were nine
hundred and seventy six children under five
years of age for every one thousand women
between the ages Of sixteen and forty-four.
Forty years later the proportion was six hun
dred and ninety-f1ine to one thousand while in
1900 there we're Ave hundred and forty-one chi-
dren under Ave for every one thousand women
between the ages named. Our decrease In the
birth rate for century has been almost as
regular and moro rapid, according to the hg-
of Professor Wilcox. than the decline In
Frances birth rate during the same period.
The difference Is that the United States started
at higher figures than France did and this
country has not yet reached the Tow rate now
shown by France A few decades will, from all
Indications, bring to that level, and the
showing of the hundred years past takes frem
the privilege OF holding up France as a ter
rible example. We must cease to throw stones
at the people across the Misunderstanding,
