* Washington, D. f , January 3.—Forecast for Georgia: Generally fair to
night and Sunday: colder tonight, with freezing temperature in north and
west portions, and close to freezing in southeast portion.

THE CALUMET DISGRACE.
The lawlessness, affliction and tragedy which have character
ized the differences between capital and labor in Calumet, Michi
gan, are matters 6f national concern. These things cannot go on.
The cost of them is defrayed to a great extent by persons who are
but iitlie, if at all, involved in the controversies which give occasion
to them. In short, this war between capital and labor is every
body’s business and everybody is beginning to realize that they
must take part in bringing such hideous developments to an end
[The copper industry is one of those interests which have been
very much in natural politics. It has enjoyed the favor of high
protection and it has enjoyed the privilege of monopoly and des
potism. Of course, it has—like other of the industries which have
secured special favor by national law—maintained the Action that
this favor of government has been, in turn, transferred to those
who labored for it have not enjoyed the enchantment of faith in
this Action. Gross injustice begets indignation of a violent and
dangerous sort. The Western Federation of Miners is by no
means one of the temperate and deliberate bodies of organized
labor. The panic, which grew out of an alarm of Are in a crowded
hall and resulted in suffering and a great loss of life among the
children of the strikers, was heralded as awakening sympathy
and restoring peace, but where the seed of bitter antagonism have
been sown peace does not readily prevail. The tension was only
$ Increased and both sides suspected the other of deliberately caus-
I lng the disaster. When the fury was it its height Moyer, the
president of the labor organization, was forcibly expelled from
the town and wounded in the struggle.
These horrible and shocking events, occurring when the whole
(country was giving itself to a spirit of good will and brotherly
love, have deeply impressed themselves upon the people of our
groat land. They are the inevliuble answer to the continued fos
tering of injustices and abuse. As a contemporary puts it, these
lights over broken promises concerning work and wages are
"shameful penalties that we have been compelled to pay for be
stowing in the name of labor bounties that we knew would not
teach their destination.”
We cannot but believe that such scenes as have occurred in
i, .Calumet will not again disgrace the country in the future. We are
now entering upon an era of better justice presaged by bitter
laws. There is every hope that as the divorce between business
and government continues, the understanding between labor and
- jcapllai will be more harmonious. These two forces must work to
gether and if they are to work with mutual bencAt to one another,
good feeling between them must be established. Both must be
made to realize that the general public demands peace, but ponce
ca nonly be gained when both sides show forbearance, patience
and consideration of one another.
ANDREW C. ERWIN PICKED
AS “ATHENS’ FIRST CITIZEN”
In response to the editorial in yes
terday’s Herald on “Athens’ First
Citizen,” a gentleman signing himself
“Athenian” selects Mr. Andrew C. Er
win as entitled to the designation of
“Athens’ First Citizen” for 1913 be
cause of his .work as the head of the
local trade body.
The Herald is very glad to see such
a quick response to this proposition.
We hope that others will come for
ward and name the man or woman
whom they consider has done the best
work for this city during the year
just gone. Naturally there will ex
ist a difference of opinion as to v.ho
has done the best work for Athens
during 1913.
The card is as follows:
“Editor Herald: Having read your
interesting editorial of yesterday and
thinking your suggestion a splendid
one, desire to record my vote for “Ath
ens First Citizen/ In my opinion no
person in this city has done more for
the prograss and uplift of the commu
nity than the enthusiastic and pro
gressive president of the chamber of
commerce, Andrew C. Erwin, and I
know of no one mors worthy of this
high honor.

Berlin, January 3.—German dental
students in more than a dozen schools
are on strike for higher titles. They
demand to be known after graduation
as doctors of dental surgery and not
be restricted to the inferior classifi
cation of “tooth physicians,” which
now prevails in Germany. The strike
includes the dental departments of
the universities of Berlin, Leipsic,
Halle, Bonn, Heidelberg, Marburg
and Greifswald, where the students
refuse to continue their studies un
less they are given the coveted title.
The high-grade and highly remun
erative dental practice in Germany is
largely monopolized by American den
tists, and the native “tooth physi
cians” struggle under the handicap of
this title for what is left. The min
istry of education, which nas behind
it the world of regular physicians, re
fuses to introduce the ’doctor title,
which would place the petitioners on
an outward equality with dental doc
tors in the United States.

(By Associated Press.)
London, January 3.—Paying mem-
of parliament $3,000 a year, as
has been done under a new law during
the put year, has been selected in
ly constituencies as a point of at-
against the Liberal Government,
is responsible for the act.
£. -The usual argument is that it in-
r’flucea men to try to get into parlia-
. taent for the money that they can
■jtoakt out of it. In a few constituen
cies, especially some of those held by
Labor!tes, where election can be se
cured without any elaborate campaign
and can be held without “nursing,” it
fs possible that the member has some
thing left out of his salary. In the
threat majority of cases, however, it
Hsktz sliof the $2,000 and much moro
to finance an election.
A typical Instance ** West Herts,
«t pr#$#rit hold by Arnold Ward, the
non of Mrs. Humphrey Ward, the nov
elist. He himself is opposed to the
it of members, while HedIey<F.
, the Liberal candidate, believes
members should be paid. 1b a
plain talk at Watford Mr. Le Bas ex
plained why he believed in it. In the
first place he pointed out that it
would cost a candidate at least $4,000
» year. The election itself, including
thr returning officer’s fees, which
have to be paid by the candidates,
would cost $10,000, to which would
have to be added the expenses of the
candidate, which he estimated at $6,-
000 during his four years of office.
He would therefore at the end of four
years be $8,000 out of pocket. Mr. le
Bas added that Ward could quite eas
ily do without his salary as the Con
servative Association, of which Lord
Rothschild, Lord Ebury and other,
wealthy men were members, contrib
uted $4,000 a year to the expenses of
the Conservative candidate.
Some of the larger constituencies
cost even more to fight. In Romford
the return inn officer?* fees end ex
penses alone would amount to more
than the total cost of an election in
West Herts.
(Special to The Herald.)
Berlin, January 3.—Further move
ments upward in the high cost of liv
ing are already in sight for the new
year. Two me*>iui«» ir» particular just
decided upon threaten to tax severe
ly the purse of the German housewife.
The privileges of importing duty
free meat from Russia, by which the
municipalities were able to force down
the price of beef and pork from two to
ten cents per pound during the past
year is not to be continued. Further
more, the icemen have formed a trust,
the first act of which is to be an in
crease of several cents a hundred
pounds in the cost of ice next summer.
The meat privilege, which was
available only to municipalities buying
for the benefit of residents, expires
March 31. Conservative party, which
wishes to secure for its agrarian con-
stitunts as high returns as possibe for
their cattle and swine, fought at the
consession to middeca38 and poor ape-
tites from the start, and now has
brought about the rcimposition of the
(full duty on Russian meat.
The municipalities of Greater Berlin
ran their meat shops at a loss of some
$35,000 during the past year. It is pro
bable that other German cities which
took advantage of the law will show
corresponding book losses. For the
taxpayer and resident, however, tnc
protiit from cheaper meat has been
marked.
?*The Berlin icemen’s now syndicate
maintains that the proposed increase
will be only 2 1-2 cents per hundred
pounds, making the price 13 1-2 cents
this price it is absolutly impossible to
per hundred weight, and that under
manufacture or import ice at a profit.
This price, however, is only for
dealers with, contracts, and the con
sumer using less than 2,000 hundred
weight per year must pay a minimum
of 20 cents. The ordinary citizen, who
fn Germany gets his ice by the pailful,
broken Into chuncks the size of an
apple, a pailful or leas a day, will
pay, as everywhere, what the iceman
decides the traffic can bear.

They were a simple-looking couple,
well past middle age, and they had
just boarded a train at a little station
in Michigan. The good old lady had
deposited her wraps in the seat and
was looking out the window at the
sleepy village, with its one wide, mud
dy street. It was evident that she
was full of emotion.
“Are you sure we have everything,
John?” she asked, turning suddenly
to her husband.
“Yep,” he replied; “I guess we’re
aii set.”
He sank into the seat beside her
and the train began to move.
“John,” the good old lady exclaim
ed. “John, this train ain’t goin’ the
right way, is it? I can’t make it seem
as though we’re movin’ in the right
direction.”
“Don’t worry,” replied John, glanc
ing out of the window; “what differ
ence does it oiako which way we’re
movin’ as long as we’re movin’?”-—
