NEW BUILDING PLANS

At the request of Governor
Hammond, the members of the
Board of Control and the Offices
of the State Historical society
have agreed to revise the plans
for the new historical library
building to provide room for
state departments that need it.
The 1913 Legislature appro-
priated 100000 for building
for the historical library and the
supreme court. The court pre-

LEO FRANKS MURDER
Governor Harris Says Conditions
Which Made Lynching Pos
sible Will Pass With
Suffrage

Governor Harris of Georgia
recently declared that woman
suffrage in Georgia would do
away with the conditions which
made the lynching of Leo Frank
possible. In an interview pub
lished in the New York Times of
August 20 he said:
eff a woman is the victim of a
crime, a fury seizes upon our
men. It is a feeling that never
will pass away until we have
woman suffrage, which I think
we will soon have"
"Will woman suffrage do way
with it ?" he was asked.
"Yes," said the governor. "Not
with the respect and admiration
men have for women, but with
the protective feeling that comes
from their helplessness."
The mayor of Atlanta has
tried to justify the lynching of
Frank upon the ground that
"When it comes to a Woman's
honor, there is no limit we will
not go, to avenge and protect"
We all know the old adage, can
ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure" It is a pervert-
ed idea of justice to avenge what
should be prevented. A fair
standard by which to measure
tie desire of the men of a state
to protect the honor of women
is the law fixing the "age of con-
sent" for girls. Georgia is the
only state in the Union which
has no statute on the subject
precedent has fixed it sometimes
at ten and sometimes at twelve
years. The age of consent in
the woman suffrage states is
from eighteen to twenty-one
years. Even in Kentucky, one
OF the backward states in this
respect, it is sixteen years. The
Georgia legislature of 1914,
which rejected a woman suffrage
bill, also rejected a bill to raise
the age of consent for girls. Just
as the Kentucky legislature of
1914, which rejected a suffrage
submission bill, also rejected a
bill to raise the age of consent.
Georgia is one of the most
backward states in the Union in
regard to the protection of work
ing women and children. At the
time Mary Phagan was assault
ed and murdered in the Atlanta
factory she was under fourteen
years. Georgia is one of the
four states in the Union allow
ing children to work in factories
at night, and one of a very small
number in the Union allowing
children under fourteen to work
, in factories at all.
1t is time the Georgia men rea-
lied that talk of Southern chiv-
airy" no longer goes. The coun-
try is judging Georgia by the
protection she actually gives her
women and children, not by her
talk about chivalry; and it is not
! justifying the lawless acts of the
lynchers either by the hypocrit-
ical excuse of the mayor Of At
lanta. The women of Georgia
have right to demand the right
to protect themselves by law, for
with all their lynchings the men
of Georgia have absolutely failed
to protect them. The state that
really wants to protect women
will be found ready to give them
the protection of the ballot.

WHAT cATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
OF the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
# any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is
medicinal food and a building tonic, free
fromalcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.i

to realize the dreams such as you
brought. You are enrichlng us If you
came expecting us to be better than we
are.
Consciousness of America.
See, my friends, what that means; II
means that Americans must have a con-
sciousness different from the conscious
ness OF every other nation in the world
am not saying this with even the
slightest thought OF criticism OF other
nations. You know how 1t Is with a
family. A family gets centered on it
self II It is not careful and is less In
terested I'm the neighbors than 1t IL In
its own members. So a nation that is
not constantly renewed out OF new
sources is apt to have the narrowness
and prejudice of family; whereas,
America must have this consciousness.

Dyspepsia Overcome
Tone Up the stomach with Hoods
Sarsaparllla.

when YOU have dyspepsia your life
is miserable. You have a bad taste in
your mouth, a tenderness at the pit OF
your stomach a feeling Of puffy full
ness, headache, heartburn and some
times nausea.
Dyspepsia is difficult dlgestion--that
Is what the word means--and the only
way to get rid OF It Is to give vigor and
tone to the stomach and the whole di.
gestive system. Hoods Sarsaparilla,
sold by all druggists, is the one medi-
cine which acts on the stomach through
the blood and also directly. Its bene-
fetal effects are felt at once. Improve
ment begins Immediately.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifies the blood,
makes the rich red blood that is needed
for perfect digestion. and builds up the
whole System. No other medicine can
take its place. --Advertisement.

Think of Humanity.

"sIy advice to you is to think first not
only OF America, but TO think first OF
humanity; and you do not love humanity
II you seek to divide humanity in jealous
camps."
The president was constantly inter
rupted by spontaneous outbursts of APP
plause He spoke clearly and so quiet
was his audience of 1900 that he could
be heard distinctly in all parts of the
great hall. Everywhere the red. white
and blue flag and bunting was displayed
and a band during the evening played
patriotic airs. Some of the passages in
his speech, which the crowd applauded
most loudly, were these:
81 am sorry for the man who seeks
to make personal capital out of the pas
sions OF his fellow man. He has lost
the touch and ideal OF America, for
America was created 70 unite mankind
by the passions that lift and unite and
not by the passions that separate and
debase mankind.
1.-THE man who seeks to divide man
from man, group from group, interest
from interest in the United States Is
striking at its very heart.

the United States government will
pursue in the situation resulting from
the loss of more than a hundred lives

He spoke by implication. but his
hearers interpreted his remarks as
meaning that while the United States
would remain at peace, it would seek
to convince Germany of the injustice
to mankind OF the tragedy Of Friday.

America" said the president,

all sides IT touches elbows and

but the audience did not hesitate TO read
the application Of his statement.
The sentiment expressed in the presi-
dents speech was epitomized later by one
of his closest advisers as humanity

termined, he said, exactly what steps
would be taken by the United States In
the present crisis the idea uppermost in

In his peroration, the president
aroused much enthusiasm when he said
that he had felt that he ought not TO DO

ing he found that the gathering revealed
his spirit a. an American. In Washing
ton" he said, linen tell you so many
things every day that are not so and

There was tremendous ovation as

ward he returned TO tho station and en-
tered his private car. He is due TO leave
for Washington at midnight and will
arrive in Washington early tomorrow.
Because OF the present status Of inter
