who wa&d to xian.q' an anti-lynch

gun on a'ohibnlon. He says that
the Ant#Saloon League controls
the Unitgd States through fear
and moy §. This was enough to
make athonse laugh.—Savannah

And the defense of this poor Mass
achusetts statesman by Julian Harris
in his Columbus BEnquirer Sun the
other day wag enough to make the
long-eared animal laugh. Wonder if
Julian, Harris really thinks it is the
part of @4, broad-minded writer to de
fend ?‘inkham anywhere in any of
his effusions?
But we better stop. We were just
Ihmkli’g again of that Pulitzer award
for lh6 most disinterested newspaper
work bf the year. Pulitzer awards
come :ia‘ut of just such quarters as
those cupied by Tinkham, Mencken
and—fi\go else shall we say? Tink

GOOD FOR THE JOURNAL
The Atlanta Journal has given
$25,000 to promote the egg laying
contest through the State Agri
cultural College. Thig ought to
gtimulate the hens and insure the
construction of a poultry plant at
the State College. All the same
it is a landsome thing for The
Atlanta Journal to do. The Journ
al has agreed to subscribe §lOO a
week for the next five years. The
hens of Georgia will lay golden
eggs for the next five years. The
man who makes two eggs Erow
where one lay before is a bene
factor in Georgia. —Savannah
Press. ¢
That's fine for the Journal. We
venturé the assertion that it will
«tart more good work than any cam
paign that eoulq be wngoq,for a pea
nut politician. It gives .us more
courage to work when we' kee one of
the really large papers goO out after
gomething that is s 0 needed in Geor
gia. Georgia will garner in many
thousands of dollars on the added in
terest in poultry, for that is a busi
ness that ought to give thousands of
people honest and honorable employ
ment and bring returns wort-hy of the
hire.
CARELESS WORDS
There are a few folks, who speak
parshly and critically without know
ing, or caring what they say or whom
they talk about it. 'l‘hvy'so'(“m to get
pleasure out of hearing their own gab.
—Times Enterprise.
This is one way in which a great
deal of the scandal is started—
through careless words. A carelass
statement is distorted and miscon
strued as it goes from mouth to mouth
and soon makes trouble. it may not
have heen intended as guch in the
beginning.
It §s hard to think that people will
say things that we find sometimes
going the rounds. The last one we
heard is one of the most monstrous,
most malicious lies ever circulated
WA anypoult AL was about a good
woman. It started, as we vhought it
out when we got away to owrselves,
from a careless remark somebody
made—not intended as anything \dke
what it finally became. A
The careless rvemarks, when they
sot into the mouths of those who do
not care, do awfal injury to thuse
who are thus made the vietims. "The
average person will not make a care
less remark about —a person :im
dosn't like, He is usually guarvded
just there, because he knows agita
tion of unfriendliness doesn't mend
misunderstandings,
It ix a mighty good practice not to
lot go with caseless talk about others,
When one has nothing else to do,
he could well spend his time prac
ticing just the opposite-—to see how
i\\"(\ll he can go saying good things.
That's a diversion which will be found
a fine art in every day lite. We often
think of a person we find gpeaking
well of others that he has in him a
neart of refined gold.

Nope—-we did not know that the

But that doesn't keep us from think

and a broader church worker—and a
bishop of the southern Methodist
church with a different view of what
unification should mean to the great

which he belongs—to which the world

HONOR DUE TO MERRIMAC, NOT
MONITOR
Columbia State:
The North and the federal ad
ministration keep on paying honors
to the wrong ship, It was the “Vir
ginia,” formerly the “Merrimac”
that revolutionized modern war
craft., It was the Virginia that dem
onstrated that a ship, so vulnerable
to cannon shot at the water line,!
could be protected from gun-fire. |
Since that historic battle—=-a
drawn action off Tort Monme,l
March 9, 1862—the warships of the
world have been gheated in :xrmor.‘
Not one of them has followed, with!
success, the model or the design of
the famed Monitor, invented by a‘
Swede, {
This little distinetion should not,
however, mar the pleasure of the
Crown Prince of Sweden, Gustat
Adolf, who has come thousands ot
miles to unveil the monument erect
ed to his ingenious fellow-country
man. It is all one to him, no doubt,
that the Monitor, like Melchizek
passed away without ancestors oi
any important progeny. It was «
Swede that designed this litte wasp
that, foilowing the example of the
Virginia, had made herself evern
more invulnerable, because ' of her

enough honor; but it did not revolu

We still make Monitors as a sori

of little efficiency. They would not

The most that may truthfully be
cluimed for the Monitor is, as we

te “Rebel” ‘boat. And further, that
certain of her features were com
