JUDGE SIBLEY, TOO
Judge Samuel H. Sibley, of the northern district of the
United States court in Georgia, has come fo the support of Judge
.Wm. H. Barrett, of the southern district, in the latter’s an
nounced intention trying no cases in his court wherein arrests
are.not made in conformity with the legal provisions that have
..to do with the issuance of search warrants and siezures.
The prohibition enforcement department in Georgia, follow
ing Judge Barrett's declaration that constitutional rights and
liberties must not he invaded by enforcement officers in the dis
charge of their duty, announced that only the southern district cf
Georgia was affected and thnt there would be no change of
methods by the department in the northern district, over which
Judge .Sibley presides.
But Judge Sibley now comes aiong, according to newspaper
reports, and declares Judge Barrett’s decision, putting a crimp
in indiscriminate search of private residences and firing upon and
Siezing automobiles and searching suitcnscs, without a warrant
specifically describing the premises to be searched (the only ex
ception being cases where an officer knows a crime is being com
mitted in his presence) is in strict accord with the law, and that
what's law in the southern district of Georgia is law in the north
ern district of Georgia—the statute applying in all states.
With enforcement officers in Georgia requiring to track the
KV, themselves, there should be an end to the indignities that in-
S cnt parties frequently suffer by reason of an enforcement of-
r permitting his eagerness to get the upper hand of his judge
ment. Let’s employ 3anity in the enforcement of this law the sarpe
fs in all statutes. ,

KEEP THE MONEY AT HOME
Ji', It is a favorite slogan of The Banner-IIefald that “The South
ant get rich feeding itself and selling the surplus.” If the South
^jjp practice this slogan for a few years—raite as far ns possible
t own food supplies and make cotton as a surplus crop, it will
omc one of the richest nnd most prosperous sections in the
id. For years, however, under the one crop system, the South
been forcod to sell its cotton for food consumed during the
year, to pay its bills in the Fall with its cotton crop and at the
' nning of each year has seen its farms 'swept clean, and had
cgin all over again.
The lesson of the boll weevil has been largely learned by the
es of Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama, and
states are now raising their own food supplies. Cotton with
of these farmers is therefore a surplus crop, and at the
nt time, these states arc among the most prosperous in the
- -OMtntry. They raised cctton last year to sell at 15 cents a pound.
Hr crop was pitched at that figure. They have been selling all
i way up to 28 cents n pound a big cotton crop that was made
^pite Of the boll weevil.
; The point is that farmers who raise their own food supplies
fnot forced to rush their cotton to market to pay food bills and
er debts. Their cotton is a surplus epop. It can remain on the

CHEATING SELF
^"Word conies over the cable from Germany that Prof. Ront-
gtn, discoverer of the X-ray .and who died and was cremated rc-
_ ccr.tly, spent ui» last years in poverty. He refused to patent his
overy, believing it so valuable thnt he should give it to the
without making a profit from it himself. His chief income
i he died was a pension of $60 a ycart Ho lived at the home cf
friend. Wc hvite tremendous respect for Prof. Rontgen’s high
gliam. Wc do not believe thnt his wonderful bVain was capable
having the “deviation from normal” that mnkes egomaniaca
i to pose as martyrs. Nevertheless, he was a martyr, a vii-
l of hia ideals. He was honest with the world. But was he real-
j honest with himself?
[ . Front cradle to grave we have the theory of honesty drum-
1 into us. Did you ever observe that mostly this drumming has
lo with honesty in our relations to others—and that little is
, about honesty to ourselves? It is dishonest to do less or to
less than wo arc paid for, making due allowances for the
pflt system which is indispensable under our present system of
bnomics. It is dishonest to steal. It is dishonest to pay a man .
'•‘ than he is worth—again making allowances for the neces-
V; margin of profit to the employer. And it also is dishonest,
ourselves, to do or give materially more than wc arc paid for.

t Rontgcn,discoverer of the mysterious and' invaluable X-i^ay,

My'friend Bisson has sent me a
little book with the abovo title,
printed In tho Island of Guernsey
from which he came. I have read
this volume with much Intereat,
-is It contains soma valuable in
formation about the banking sys
tem and which Is applicable to our
ilay and times. This book tells
nbout the advance made from
barter to bunking. From tho dawn
of History, when mankind • wna
emerging from savagery and com
modities were produced by hand
labor and exchanged by barter.
First the articles cf barter were
skins, then cattle, later an array
of agricultural products and metals
then Iron was used and lead as a
unit of value. Id his Illiad
llotner doplcits a state whore no
money was used. “From Lemnos
Isles a numerous fleet canto
freighted with wine. Tho arccks
hastened to purchase some with
brash, some with Iren and some
with hides, cattle and slavos.” Ono
of tho most Interesting instances
of l ho use of representative money
Is found In the English Exchequer
Tallies, which were circulated In
England for over six hundred
sears. They were four Bided rods
of hazel or linden wood, nbout
an inch In diameter. '
The amount of tlielr circulating

deed the slmpl’] method of glv-
Tbe following is an illustration
of the transactions on (ho Island
of Guernsey before tho Introduc
tion of banking and when nn ex
change of commodities was the
way of dealing. A shoemaker em
ploys a neighbor to dig a ditch and
when tby work was finished offer
ed him a pair of shoes. Ho refused
the shoes but accepted tho shoe
maker's I. O. U. The shoemaker,
however, noeded a coat and the
tailor accepted this evidence of
debt as payment for the coat. Tho
tailor in turn wanted tho root of
his house repaired and the car
penter accepted for his work the
shoemaker’s I. O. U. The carpen
ter needed u pair of shoes, gets
thorn ffom the shoemaker and pays
for thorn by surrendering the evi
dence of tho debt which the shoe
maker originally owned to the ditch
digger, and the shoemaker de
stroyed It.
And this ancient transaction can
now be duplicated with our bank
ing system, just as effectually be
the debtor giving a check for what
money lie has to his creditor.’ This
will enable the creditor to eance'
an obligation he in turn owes and
that same check, by being kept In
circulation, can be made to lift tho
burden of debt from an indefinite
number of persons and this de-
lievis many obligations.
1 am satisfied that if the money
now locked up or withheld from
the payment of honest debt was
started out the rounds that In
short while it would cancel the
debts of nearly everyone not a
hopeless bankrupt tn a community.
It does not take sny ver/ groat

DEPOSITING MONEY \
IMPROVES SITUATIODN
The improved conditions now
upon us over twclvo months aco
are largely duo to tho fact that
money once held st home nnd thus
kept nut of circulation has been
deposited In the banks aud put In
circulation. It Is shown that there
are about a million dollars more
on deposit In the Athens banks
that at this time last year.- This
money was put at work and Is
fast restoring nonnal conditions.
What most ailed the ceuntry
was lack of confidence; and this
was manifested by sonib parties
selling their cotton and Instead of
paying their just debts, through
fear of not retting any more
credit and holding that money
back from those they owed. The
best Investment a man can make
<s to ealsbllsh his credit and thee

debts when due If It takae kis last

It would be well for everyone
to read this little book on “The

things nbout impcAi bis attliudo to.
ward them would be different, and
both bettered thereby. •
Tho first suggestion thut wc make
Is that the reader have the correct
Idea and conception of what a news
paper Is .namely, that It Is a business
organisation, operated to make a liv
ing and money for tho men runnlnt;
It. That It is a business concern
Just llko a grocery or hardware store,
and that tt is expected to not only
pay expenses, hut pay dividends Just
ilke a bank or manufacturing plant.
A paper Is not a charitable institu
tion nor a utility run for the benefit
of the public, printed and distribut
ed without cost. Neither is It fllio.t
up with Just' anything thut fills
space, for hardly any dally news
paper has space enough to print even
one-half tho. matter receive t each
day, therefore the nows thut, is i f
the greatest Interest and Importance
to tho largest 'number of people is
selected.
Next, remember that newspapers
are not gossip nor scandalmongers,
and that It Is not their mission to
start the day off by gatherhu up
nil the loose talk and putting It in
to type and broadcasting It. In the
first place, no per -cent of oil go-sin
und rumor Is not based on facts nnd
the tu per cent of truth that might
