were employees who were holding Jobs under
the Jews.
East Point, suburb of Atlanta, seemed
to show up 21 names for communications only
one name acaS genuine. and that is a woman
who works for an Atlanta Jew!
Supplementary to the publication of the
communication list, came the policy of inti1y2i-
dati0n
just as the daily papers had been forced
to kneel to Jew advertisers so the individu-
al citizens who dared to express themselves
in favor of Georgia Law womanhood, and
The Jefersonian, aoere threatened uih c,in1-
anaJ prosecution.
Old Columbia county-the cradle of the
Baptist church In Georgia. the home of the
Crawfords, the Waltons, the Cobbs, the
Lampklns, the Ramseys the Meriwethers
the Marshalls and the Hamiltons, feels about
this Frank-SlatOn matter, llst as almost the
whole of Georgia does and some citizens
of the county published card-afte5 the
ren0na0uS attack Oh me aohich John Grant
paid form which they said:
''God always raises up at the proper
time to denounce wicked nation. Saton re-
minds US of two lines in Cowpers poems: "N1an
when smoothest he appears, is most to be sus-
pected.'
don't wonder you think us insane. We think
SO ourselves when we see the men we have voted
into office betray us like Slaton has.
Now you remember there are hundreds of thou
sands of Georgians backing Watson, sons of toll
who know they have champion in him and
whom they know will not betray the trust and
honor imposed upon him, and if you don't want to
raise H in Georgia, you and your Slaton
crowd had better keep quiet, for there is limit
fixed to which the sons of Georgia will not go
protect her fair women and Watson"
Because these citizens of old Columbia,
my nat2Ue county, wrote this, thew were
thre0tened by John Grants hired man: and
he menaced them with the following statute
which Georgia enacted when the John
Brown abolitionists were scattering incendi-
airy literature over the South melting the

bride to appear before Governor Slaton, and
act dummy part in the farce OF that appli-
cation for clemency.
The unselfish and benevolent Rosser told
Senator James that his argument would be
prepared for him, and that he could not lose
before Slaton.
In this truly noble manner did Rosser live
ly to his alleged obligation to have nothing
whatever to do with the case when it came
before his gubernatorial partner!
Away with subterfuge, chicane and false

THE COMEBACK CAMPAIGN METHODS.
The first move was to make as big a dis
play as possible of the commuters Every
soul who had been persuaded to sign the Leo
Frank petition was asked to step forth, and
make common cause with the fugitive Gov
eInor.
We saw the names of bewildering lot of
the Children of Israel, nearly 600 of them
being on the Atlanta list, and some of them,
no doubt, being 7-year-old children, like
those at Montezuma
One Hebrew man, at that representative
town of 1000 people, signed with the COM
muters, and nearly all the others signed
against commutation, but the one Jew
weighed more with the Slaton1tes, than all
the Gentiles.
We saw them parade Slaton's relatives,
and Franks relatives and some Roman Cath
olics who supposed it to be good time to
write hot card against Watson.
We saw lists of names of fictitious per-
sons, similar to the names that used to be
voted, at cents per, against Watson in Au-
gUsta
Not only was the GAINESVILLE list spurious,
but the West Point list-a mserably small

No attention was paid to mass-meetngs in

THE VALUE OF MANNERS"

We told much of utilities, but 'tis our managers that associates us. In hours of business we go to him who knows
 or has. or does this or that which we
 want. and we do not let our taste or feeling stand in the way. But this ac- tiVity over we return to the indolent state and wish for those we can be at ease with; those who will go where we go, whose manners do not offend us, whose social tone chimes with ours. When we reflect upon their persuasive and cheering force; how the recom- ment, prepare and draw people togeth- CT; how, in all clubs. manners make the members; how manners make the for tune of the ambitious youth; that, for the most part, his manners marry him; and. for most part, he marries man ners; when We think what key they are, and to what secrets; what high lessons and inspiring tokens of charac- ters they convey and what divination is required in us for the reading of this fine teleeraph--we see what range the ;uhiect has, and what relations to con- ver' r'ence, power and beauty.-Emerson

Perhaps the most useful lesson in the
 present war to America, has been in
 the enormous effectiveness of organi-
 zation and the utilization of every ele-
 ment of national resource to the whole
 some service of the nation and it's people. In spite of our great construc- go lucky, care free and careless people. In this new world, where nature has been so bountiful in it's gifts, the neces- sities of existence have come to us without the need of intensive pursuit
 But all this is changing with the in- crease in our population, and we are gradually coming to the old world ne- cesity of conserving and utilizing our energies Tn productive channels. The example of Germany in the present war has wholesome effect upon this country. Handicapped by superior forces in the nations opposed to it, the nation has by effective organization made a tremendously strong showing and the organization is not only along military lines, but pervades every phase of the national life from the in- dividual and the community to the head of government. The principle of the intensive cultivation of the fields nothing wasted--ths making of every element in the equation of existence count-has extended through the whole structure of German life and multiplied by many times the power and produc- tiveness of the people. What America could accomplish if 1t concluded to "ex- tend" itself is shown by the German
 example. Like many men, this na-
 tion will not realize it's full advantages
 until the spur of necessity is applied
 Germany is showing us our weaknesses and our possibilities Already the in- ventive genius of America has been
 summoned to common counsel on ways and means. Wars demands have stim- ulated our production in many depart
 ments. and we are being gradually 1 taught the necessity of utilizing to the full the resources and opportunities that lie in our hands-P. l.

government cannot force the steamship ing to accommodate the needs of the mail service and so we must content ourselves with things as they are. It is a deplorable state of affairs but ap- parently there is no relief. It is sub mitted, however, that the winter mail service. good as it is, could receive some benefit by increasing the weight limit for this section At the present time five hundred pounds of mail per trip is the lint required by the contract Within this limit must be carried the mail for every section of Seward Pen insula. The result the delay of considerable quantity of mail matter and accounts largely for the non-ar- rival of newspapers, magazines and other weighty mail until late in the spring. To many people such matter Is just as valuable ae letter mail and they are as justly entitled to receive their books and magazines as are those re- ceiving letters Under existing condi tions the prompt delivery of mail mat ter of this character is almost impos sble owing to the first class mail usurping the preference and occupying practically the entire weight limit re- quired under the contract There Is ap parently nothing that can be done in the matter of the summer mail at pre- sent but there Is room for a consider
 able improvemnt in the winter service which can probably be brought abou' by a little action on the part of the Chamber of Commerce and other local organizations.

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, SEPT. 6, 1915.

The repl, of the Post Office Depart ment to the Chamber of Commerce communication. relative to the mail, no doubt furnishes a most satisfactory explanation of why we do not receive the mail except at intervals of several weeks apart, but at the same time it is anything but satisfactory to the person who has to do the waiting. The com munication indicates clearly that the department is not to blame for the mail being held up for such lengthy periods during the open season, and in addition is making every effort to give us as good service as is possible under the blame for the unfortunate state of af- fairs; not even the steamship com panies. although one may be inclined to feel that by tempering their de- mands, the companies could in some degree help to better conditions. The demand that the government pay the
 
 whether a vessel carries mail or not appears remarkably like an attempt to hold somebody up but at the same time this conclusion is hardly justified as the steamship companies alone are qualified to judge as to the value of the services rendered under a mail con- tract. The whole trouble apparently lies in the steamships maintaining schedules closely corresponding in the dates of sailing While we may de- plore this unfortunate fact, it is diff ficult to see wherein the service would be benefited to any particular degree by dispatchlng the mail on every ves- sel. Some slight gains in time might be made is all outgoing vessels were mail carriers but this would have no particular effect on the inbound con- signments. Throughout the season the Victoria and Senator both leave Seattle at intervals seldom more than a day or two seperated and as long as this con- dition exists it is clear that the service cannot be benefited in any particular degree. Although this is unfortunate for us it is so and cannot be helped in l any manner to be seen at present. The ]

WAR SHIPPING LOSSES

One of the most striking features of the tabulation of the wars effects on merchant vessels is the losses sustained by neutral nations.
 When the war began Brltains ton mage was 2o.431,54 tons, so that the loss of 6O9,934 tons represents de- crease of about 3 per cent, leaving out of account normal increases through and the acquisition of German prizes. Germany started the war with ! tonnage of 5,oS2.061 of which she has certainly lost great deal more than
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-09-06

Now, turning to the United States we find that the bureau of navigation of the Department of Commerce off, cially listed in the fiscal year termi- hating June 30, 1.226 new merchant vessels, built in American shipyards with gross tonnage of 245,771. This was quite a little smaller than the fig ures for 1914 which were 1,291 vessels with tonnage of 311.57s But during the ten months the war has lasted, the American merchant marine was swelled considerably by the transfer to Ameri- can registry of 147 foreign built ves- sels, totaling 52S.9 BOT gross tonnage which brings the increase of our mer- chant marine for the war year up to 1873 vessels of 744.61S. making, as has been said, the largest annual increase to the American merchant marine. The other large increases were those of 190S,. 71S6S2 gross tons: 1907. 596, ,70S gross tons, and 1855, '5s6, 1O2 gross tons The losses to the merchant fleet have not all been reported yet, but so far the records show 1.062 vessels, with a total tonnage of 195,o52 gross.-New York Post
