For the first year at least after this
general introduction of the system into

to meet different national or racial con
ditions. The American educators, how
ever, believe they have found in the sys-
TEN three fundamental principles of uni
versal Importance. These are the work
for the education of the senses from the
earliest infancy, the granting of the ut
most liberty to the children-a liberty so
great in fact that there is no enforced
discipline whatever in the schools, the
children being free to do what they please
and when they please only as long as it
does not conflict with the rights of the
other children-and lastly the cultivating
initiative in whatever they want to do,
and then of doing it entirely by them
selves.
The success of the method with Ameri

Probably one CT the most unique as
well as one of the most rational meth
ods of preventing mob violence such
as that here last Saturday has been
suggested by DR.. e. L. Thurman. IN
brief DR.. Thurman's suggestion is that,
instead of remaining passive and ap-
parently Indifferent in such emergeR-
cies, the law-abiding citizens of 81
community should go out to these oc-
currences and be prepared TO give
evidence against those who violate tht.
law.
In giving the idea of his theory more
fully, Dr. Thurman said:
1T seems to me that the antidote fo
mob law is publicity-not so much
necessarily after the mob has done its
work as before. A mob is collection
of people who have tried to convin &c
themselves and everybody else that
they have entirely lost their self
control Under extraordinary provo
cation this may be true, but in the
usual instance it is true in part only
The members of a mob seem to fe
that the responsibility is lessened on
account of the number of participants
and appear to regard themselves as
immune from punishment
THE responsibility for the main
tenance of order and the protection oil
the reputation of the community res,s
not alone on our administrative Off
cials, but also upon the preponderat.
ing better element of society; and il
is the duty of the good people in this
and every community to give some ou5-
ward evidence that the. law-abiding
sentiment is an active, positive force
and not merely passive, defensive at
titude And believe that when PROV

RAILROAD WON IN RECENT
POSTAL TEST SUIT TRIED

Atlanta, June 20.-The whole fallacv
of the United States Postal Depart
ments attitude toward the railroads
with relation to the "divisor" question
and the remuneration which the roads
receive for hauling the mails, is set
forth in a decision by the U. S. court
of claims handed down this month, AMI
just received by leading railroad men
of this territory.
The suit was brought by the Chicago
and Alton Railroad Company, and a
verdict was rendered in the railroad s
favor for specific damages in the sum
of $S2 2,6O4S4.
The postal department contended
that it had paid the sums specified un-
der a postal order and that this was
proper compensation, and that the
railroad had received formal notice of
this order.
The court set us in answer to the
defendants contention that a regula-
ton contrary to law has no force, and
that it made no difference whether the
plaintiff had knowledge of it or not
The decision Of the court of claims
is one of the most notable recognitions
yet obtained of the justice of the rail-
roads contention.

A special session of the Superb u
court of Sumter county will inyestiga'C e
the recent lynching in Americus. Th -
was decided yesterday afternoon when
Judge z. A. Littlejohn, of the Sumter
county superior court, issued an order
calling a special term of that court tc
meet here next Monday morning at
o'clock.
Though no specific mention is made
in the order that the special session OF
the court was called for the purpose
of investigating the lynching, the or
der merely stating that the court will
be assembled to dispose of such busl-
ness as may be pending in said court
it is understood that the special ses-
sion will have to do with the investi-
cation of the lynching.
1t is not the duty of the judge of the
superior court, as it is understood
here, to enforce the law but merely IL
give the people an opportunity to ell
force the law for themselves. Without
the initiative on the part of the judge
the investigation of the recent lynch
ing would probably have been passed
UP, as it is necessary that the judge
give the people an opportunity by
means of the special session to inves-
tigate the affair. Now that the specia
session has been called by Judge LIZ
tlejohn, it is possible for the peoptv
of the county to see that the matter
is thoroughly investigated by the grand
jury.
The same grand jury that served a
the recent session of the court viii
be re-summoned and will serve at the
special session. This is provided fol-
in the order, and subpoenas will like
ly be served on the members of the
