FALL TERM OPENS
SEPT. 5,1021:
An explosion of dynamite last
Wednesday demolished a ’freight
train and killed a considerable
number of cattle on the Atlanta,
Brunswick and Atlantic Railroad,
5 miles from Oordele. The County
’Cbminissioners of • Crisp county
and the railroad have eaeh offered
a reward’ of $500 for the arrest
with proof to convict the perpetra*
tor of this or any other similar act
on that road. Since the strike of
railroad workei’3 of that road a
number of such acts of destruction
have been committed on that road,
and it is high time the state and
federal governments should become
determinedly active in putting a
stop to such destructive lawlessness
The railroad has been successful in
operating the line in spite of the
strike and the surface indioations\
are that these acts have been com
mitted -in revenge. *
RAILROADS PAY $325,000.
Railroads of Georgia have paid
into the state treasury about $325,-
000 in taxes in the last few days it
was learned Friday at the office pi’
General William A. Wright, state
comptroller. Approximately $827,-
000 Js due to be paid by railroads
and utility companies Sept. 1st.
The lines that have paid the tax

No class is long satisfied, and all
sides blame the government.
<Che protective tariff on imports
is claimed to promote agricultural
and industrial production in the
United States. In some particu
lars this is true, but the producer
gets the help of ,paternalism to the
hurt of the consumer who is not a
producer.
So paternalism in the govern
ment promotes dependence ahd
smothers individuality.
So it goes, the more benefits af
forded one class, the greater the
dissatisfaction becomes among
those of the other class.
The producer wants high prices
for products, while *the consumer
desires otherwise.
Then opposite interests cannot
be hannonizled, and a paternal
government>can only make matters
worse.
Paternalism leads to imperialism
or some other objectionable ism.
