The iiliovo is tlu j time disunited
in the Gill creating the office ot
Commissioner of roads t,”d rev
s * tines for Henry county for said
♦Commissioner to begin flic dis
•e'large of bisduties. This hill vvhh
introduced by our representative
Air. li. C. Brown some two weeks
■ago.
We are unable to learn why Mr.
Brown delays putting the bill in
ell'eet until the above dale since it
occurs to us ni'd <il»u to the grand
j ury if a commissioner is a good
thing for the county practically
two years hence, why rot at once?
As .Judge Harris, our efficient
Ordinary, sa's : within tie next
two years will come the greatest
labor that will devolve upon the
Commissioner or Ordinaly in the
rebuilding of the rations bridges
ofthecourtv. In this one item
alone we believe a competent man
would save his salary two to three
times each year.
In a conversation with Senator
McWilliams recently he agreed to
give the wishes of the people due
•consideration, by amending same
when the bill reaches the senate,
fit now reposes peacefully in the
•committee with little prospects of
being acted on) and we believe
•through Senator McWilliams the
grand jury recorfnmer.dations will
he carried out, should he ever have
the opportunity.
The message of Governor Joseph
M. Brown, submitted to the legis
latnre today, is easily one of the
most notable public documents
presented to the people of Georgia
within recent years. It grapples
with pressing problems and dis
cusses them sanely and practical
ly, and in an attractive sty le which
robs them of the last vestige of
prosaicness. It is an unusual
message—unusually fjjll of meat
and unusually entertaining —Al
bany Herald.

Protect Our Water Ways
One of the most important sub
jects before bur people to-day is
the proper conservation of cur
water power. Our national auth
orities are working along this line
and a few of our states have awak
ened to tile critical danger we are
in from monopolization.
Our magazines have for some
time been devoting a good deal at
tention to this subject.
Here in Georgia our waterpower
is fast passing into the hands of
companies to bo used for their own
individual profit.,
Tlmy are taking our people’s
land and water power for nothing
if they can get it, for a song if the
people will accept the offer, and by
threat or the nse of eminent do
main, they are taking much of our
properity without just compensa
tion.
By the charters we give these
companies we are giving away for
ever the rich inheritance we have
in our for it is shown
that in the future who ever con
trols the water power of our land
will control all our rail roads, all
| our nr.nnfaeturing enterprises, all
: our farming interests—in fact onr
| very bread and meat will contri
I bnte to enrich the corporations
j while our people as a whole will
; become poorer and poorer under
the iron hand of this monopoly.
We dc not want to retard develop
ment of o ir stile, but development
of a section does not mean merely
i the use of its powers, but the use
iof them to the best, purpose and
1 f ile best advantage, for the gfeat
-1 est number, and development that
looks toward the future for the
j people as well as to the present
j bent fit,
Mr. John L. Matt news, an expert
on* water power and its use, is
writing in Hampton's Magazine a
series of articles on this subject
which all our people would do well
to read. r [ he Outing Magazine de
votes a department to the same in
terest, and onr thinking men all
over the country are .trying to
awaken onr people in our own in-j
t, rest.
Last year in the Georgia Legis
lature a hill was in trod net d to give
away even more effectually all our
claims to the wealth as if is con
fa inod in our streams. The bill
was tabled, but the interests of
monopoly and greed are doing all
they can to accomplish their ob
ject. at this session. It is to lie
hoped that our legislators upon
whom the responsibility rests w .11
keep their eves open and not allow
any such bijl to he lmuled over
tin ir heads.
