EQUINOX STORM AT HAND.
Prevailing Rains Believed to be Fore.
runner Of Usual Weather Con-
ditions.

The storm that broke over Anna
polls shortly after last mig htfal swept
away the nurky atmosphere that
caused much suffering to humanity
as well as beast during the day.
Vivid lightning and loud rolls of
thunder, the storm was also accom-
panied by heavy downpour of rain
that continued for about an hour.
And since the break of dawn today
heavy showers with much cooler at
mosphere have been the prevailing
conditions of weather.
1t is approaching the time of the
equinox-September 21-and it is be-
lieved that this is the beginning of
the rains that usually prevail at this
season of the year.

Fish are not equipped to combat
rapid changes in temperature because
the temperature of the water in the
ocean, lakes and rivers beneath the
surface remains virtually stable Some
fish, such as carp and trout, when
taken from warm water and placed in
water several degrees colder take
cold. The cold attacks the skin and
the fms. and various portions OF the
skin present a cracked, ridgelike ap-
pearance. If returned to warm water
the fish usually recover, but some
times the disease. which seems to be
sort of eczema, eats into the mus

George Dole WadIey comes of a family
that does things. His father Moses Wadley,
was the creator of much of the Central of
Georgia Railroad. which extends over two
States. He was the first Southern man who
had the ability and the courage to establish
a successful Ocean Steamship Line, between
Southern ports and those of the North and
East
His son, George Dole Wadley, is middle
aged man, with a well-established reputation.
as a conservative, prosperous business man.
Interested in cotton, he naturally wants to see
higher prices. His plan is announced in the
advertisement which you will find in this
issue
There is no reason in the world why the
cotton grower shall submit to the present sit
uation. There is something tragic in his
inability to find way out.
In the West, the wheat raisers. through the
Society of Equity, have no difficulty in sell
ing at profitable prices. In the South, we,
at present. have no similar organization.
Mr.. Wadley proposes substitute The
price he proposes to get is not extravagant.
For less than Is cents, cotton cannot be
grown, at the present cost of the wherewith
to make the crop.
Write to Mr.. Wadley. get his explanation
of his plan, study it carefully, and then
decide for yourself what to do.

So you see, we have efectually 'scotched the

they won't be seated.

course, I did not claim that it was actually
defunct; but [ wrote the notice, to have it
ready when needed-as we do with Kings,
popes, potentates and powers that we see are
about to peg out.
This fool Committee had gone ahead doing
all manner of hlgh-handed things, Just as
though the rest of us were out of exist
ence; and just as though such thing as
hereafter would never arrive.
Drunk on power, they robbed sovereign
convention Of the right of free speech, of the
right to know what was going on, of the
right to discuss anything that the Chairman
did not approve, of the right to amend the
platform, and of the right to debate it. For
the first time, IN all the history Of Amgzo-
Saxon institutions. COMMITTEE DEPRIVED THE
MAJORITY OF THE RIGHT TO RULE.
Delegates, representing $4,000 white Demo-
Gratis had no rights in the convention, save
those of being there, breathing, and being
howled down.
And the same lawless crowd that trampled
upon the Joe Brown delegates, howled oar
mass meeting into dispersion, at the Audi
forum, the following night-jeopardisiug
limb and life, IN one Of the finest audiences
that ever assembled IN atlanta.
From that time, those Rule or-Ruin bosses
began to lose ground And they lost it fast
They acere AFRAID to face the people IN q Se1oa-
torjaz primary Consequently, they ignored
precedent as we'll as the demand of national
democracy. Again, they lost ground, and,
again, they lost it fast. But their Boss was
inexorable; and the Committee had to act, as
per orders from the Peters Building.
Then. a comical thing happened At the
August convention of 1910 the Rule Ruin
ties struck down the county unit plan, and
adopted the popular majority rule The pur-
pose qoas to gi0e the big cities the rrepo1ooer-
ance Of p0aoer.
But when the Rule-o Ruinites came to
prepare for the special election of 1911, they
found themselves in hole. They knew that
the majority was against them. They knew
that the popular vote plan aUouzd necessitnte
q convention. They knew that the convention
would vote them out; and another commit
tee in. Therefore. while we were laughing
at their dilemma, they topped back to tho
county unit pz0n-thus playing into oar
hands, beautifully.
And the way we did proceed to maui h-ll
out of them, makes our sides shake until yet.
Why did they go back to the county unit
plan? For the reason that they could thereby
a00id convention, IN qUhioh they qcouzd haze
to meet O. II. Peepuz, face to face.
Do you know what that dog gone Commit
tee meant to do? The Boss meant to have it
appoint the delegates to the National Con-
vention. There is not the slightest doubt
about it. The talk of Presidential primary
was all for soothing effect. There is no way,
under the sun, by which the people can vote
in primary of that sort, unless some author
lied person, or organization, puts delegates IN
the field. In Georgia. we have no such author
lied person, or organization. Therefore, the
Committees talk of a primary was all bun
combe.

I'm Savannah, Ga, the Roman
PappycratS are RObbing the
Public School Fund.


Z published, in connection with his Report
for 1900, a History of Savannah, by Thomas
Gamble, Jr.
On page 2s1, Of this History, find the
following:
"In 1867 an application was made to the
Board of Education by Bishop Augustus
Verot. of the Roman Catholic Church, ask
ing it to introduce three additional members
to the Board, who should be representatives
of the Catholic population, and one of whom
should be a Catholic priest. The Board of
Education, on Nov. 10, declined to accede
to this request"
In giving it's reasons the Board emphasized
the fact, that other rIigious denominations
had as much right TO make requests of that
sort, as the R0neanasts had.
The Board stated, correctly, that it had
no legal right to grant petitions of that char
acter. To establish separate schools under
separate and independent management, would
destroy the unity of the public school system.
But on Oct. 18th, 1868, Bishop Verot and
a number of influential Romanist citizens
petitioned the Board for division of the
school funds. This application was denied.
However, tho Bishop kept up the agitation
until he got practically aohat he qoamted.
The St. Patrick's School and Cathedral
School are supported out Of the public school
fund. They are Catholic schools with
Romanist teachers. No Protestaqats need
apply. Not a single Protestant is ever
employed as teacher in a Catholic school;
while Catholics are engaged on the Faculties
of Protestant colleges, and in the Protestant
schools Where aoiW suoh q fatally blind pol

that would deafen the ears.
But here are these Romanists. maintaining

teur ran the car into pillar of the
elevated road structure and Mr.
Brush was slightly injured While
the injury was not serious, the
shock proved too much for his
nerves, and he had been out but
little up to the time he left New
York last Sunday on the trip which
resulted in MS death.
Had Very Successful Career.
Mr.. Brush was born in Indianap-
oils, and first came into promi-
nence when he took charge of the
Indianapolis baseball team. Later
he acquired control of the Cincin-
natl club. Then he took over the
New York Giants. He started in
business life in a clothing store in
the Hoosier capital.
Brush secured control of the Reds
in 1881 for practically nothing. Aft
er holding it for ten years, he sold
it to Garry Hermann for 100000.
He used this money to purchase
the controlling stock in the Giants
from Andrew Freeman.

MO college youth ever gained
" prominence on the diamond
more rapidly than Eppa
Rixey, the sensational young left
handler who flashed to the front as
a member of the Philadelphia Ma
tionals last season. One year ago
the name of Eppa Rixey was I'M
known to the baseball world. To-
day there Is hardly a city in the
country where the fans are not IA
miliar with it.
Rixey has the reputation of being
the best pitcher imported from the
college ranks in years, and 1t took
him less than four months to es-
tablish it. 1t did not require even
that long for him to demonstrate
his worth as player, for less than
month after he donned a big
league uniform Horace Fogel, the
Philadelphia owner, turned down an
offer of $4,000 for him made by
Charley Murphy, of the Cubs. The
offer was made as result of Rix-
ey's wonderful performance
against Chicago.
RiXey first attracted attention as
a pitcher while a student of the
University of Virginia. In one
game there he struck out 81 men
in nine-inning struggle, and soon
had whole army OF scouts trailing
him. When he graduated last
June he had offers from at least a
half dozen big league clubs.
Eppa Gets Big Salary.
All sorts of inducements were
made to the youth, who was finally
induced to exchange his sheepskin
for a Philadelphia contract calling
for 5000 a month, q salary almost
equal to that of a senator. 1t was
through the good graces of Bill
Rigler that Rixey was persuaded to
cast his lot with the Quakers, and
for the part the National league
umpire played in discovering and
getting him to sign he received a
handsome bonus.
Rigler aced as coach to the Vir-
ginia university squad last spring.
1t was while working in that ca
pacity that he became familiar with
the youngsters worth.
