From the Savannah News.
So far as The Morning News has Iron
able to discover the contest over the me
thod of control of the two agricultural
experiment stations in Georgia has been
a contest between politics and personal
animosity on the one side and the welfare
of Georgia on the other. The fight is not
yet ended. This week will likely see a de
cision, and The Moruing News would
be greatly disappointed and regretful if
the forces of personal politics aud per
sonal animosity should win.
If there is any sensible argument
against putting the stations under col
lege control The' Morning News has not
been able to discover it.
The position of The Morning News is
that the questien is not one of personnel
but of method. If Dr. Soule is not the
proper man to run the state college get
somebody else who is—although there has
yet to be asserted 1 any sensible reason why
Dr. Soule is not the man for the job
he holds. But do not hold np the agri
cultural development of Georgia, do not
make this experiment station or either
one of them, merely a political asset of
any man or set of men. ' This U plain
speaking, but the time has come for that.
The matter has come to this: South
Georgia has said that the Griffin station
can be left out of the matter altogether if
it does not desire to go under college con
trol and maf ]k#N$the federal appropria
tion if it wishes and if the federal govern
ment will continue to give the money to it.
But the Tifton station, the coastal plain
station, the station that la to serve the
interests of agriculture in South Georgia,
must not be kept from college control
just because Senator Flynt does not like
Dr. Soule.
If there Is any real doubt in anybody’s
mind as to the better method of control
of the stations the opportunity is afforded
of testing the whole business. The Tif
ton station wants college control; Senator
Flynt does not want college control tor
the station at Griffin. Let the Tifton
station founder the collect; let the Griffin
station remain under the control of its
trustees—and watch them both for two
or thm years. That certainly is Jhlr
to everybody. If college control la not n
good thing, that would be shown by the
st >% V
The farmers of Georgia should remem
ber the line-up on this question. They
should ask thsmaeives whether men who
will stand in the way of the hwt aerviee
of the agrtoritnral Interests '* a
are worthy to be public
should determine in their
whether political ambition
itr Shall rule Omrgla
as sericulture la concerned, or whether
the interests of the farmers shall rale.
Search as yeu may, you will find that the
line which divides men on this question
pdts personal political ambition and per
sonal animosity on the one side and the
good of Georgia agriculture on the other.
Which side shall South Georgians stand
on?
What The Morning News wants is for
the station t* give the best possible ser
vice to the farmers of the coastal plain.
It is going to serve no man’s political am
bitions. It has no personal animosity
to serve. It believes that the best in
terests of. the- farmers of South Georgia
will be better served by a close relation
between the experiment station and the
College of Agriculture. It knows that
every other state in the union has its ex
periment station or stations under its
state College of Agriculture. It knows
that the national department of agricul
ture believes the farmers cannot be as
well served by any other than college
of experiment stations. It knows
that the majority of the trustees of the
Tifton station favor college control,
