THEY KEEP THE DEMAGOGUE FROM STARVING.
If things are not just as they ought to he and as you Ihink llley
should lit" don’t gel mad with yourself and with all the rest of hu
manity anil fret your life away. \\ lien a small hoy ploughing a mule
in rough ground, we frequently got mad and madder and put all Ihe
blame "on the mule. How we did whip and abuse that old mule who
w as doing his duty and keeping his temper under control much better
than we were exercising our self -control and mule sense.
Many men are still like hoys, because tilings are not just as they
would have them from their preconceived and too often mistaken
ideas, they form the unfortunate habit of abusing their government
and can see no good in it. # ,
They lose sight of all the benefits derived from it; that without it
all would be chaos and conditions would be deplorable.
It is an unfortunate calamity for any man when he reaches the con
chision that government is a farce, that he has been robbed of all his
liberties, and he resolves to become a chronic kicker. It is upon such
men the demagogue delights to feed and without them lie would soon
starve.

The kitchen should he the cleanest room in a home and it cannot
have this reputation unless the woman of the home devotes a part of
her time to her home.
O
If tlie people will quit spending their money so recklessly and get
down to some common sense living, there will he enough of all crops
produced in Georgia this year to make the large majority of its citi
zens prosperous and happy.

The man who forms the habit of eternally cursing the government,
and believes everything the demagogues tell him, hurts I B own in-

rest.

O
RAILROAD TRAVEL INCREASING.
It has been often suggested for the past few years that the increas
ing number of automobilies and better highways would materially les
son travel on the railroads of the country and that passenger coaches
would soon go enpty.
But those who still patronize Ihe railroads find the trains on all
lines crowded, and it is not an ex travagant statement to say there has
never in all the history of this country been as much travel on all rail
roads as at the present time.
If this continues, the income from passengers will he so large, those
who charge that under government <• ontrol the roads have failed to
pay expenses will have to make some other argument in beliali ot pri
vate ownership.
To show the increased revenue from passengers at the Winder sta
tion, which is an index to all other points on the Seaboard, it will be
interesting to know that for the month of August there was an in
crease of nearly eleven hundred dollars over the preceding month, the
increase for July more than $600.00 over June and that the August
receipts doubled those of May. __ _
It' this increase is proportionately as great all over the l nited
States, w hich beyond doubt it is, one eon readily figure what an im
mense increase in revenue it will run to in reducing the deficit
brought on during the war period.
Whether or not government ownership of railroads is best for the
people is hard to decide, but The Times lias never felt it vyas a fair
test to reach a conclusion for or against this important question under
the conditions which existed during the war.
