Too Many Convict
Escapes.
The state’s system of working
its convicts on the roads—a sys
tem of inestimable benefit both
to the convicts themselves and
to the material advancement of
the state—necessitates the con
victs being quartered in camps
of a more or less temporary
character.
Vigilance on the part of war
dens and guards to prevent es
capes should for this reason bo
all the stricter.
But such appears from the
statistical compilation for the
past year by the secretary of
the prison commission not to
have been the case, but, instead,
condition of inexcusable negli
gence has grown up, resulting in
the escape last year of 219 fejony
convicts, of which 120 have never
been recaptured.
It is gratifying to note that
the prison commission hns issued
bo offered by its enemies. They
will take particular delight in
squelching the wood pulp and
print paper amendment submit
ted bv Senator Root, of New
York. ‘
In addition to this, it is also
announced from Washington that
the prospects of the other tariff
reduction measures—the farmers’
free list and the revised wool
schedule proposed by the Demo
crats—are hot at all so gloomy
in the senate as has been pic
tured.
It is said that the insurgent
senate Republicans, who have
been wavering on the question of
supporting the tariff reduction
measures, have seen the light and
now realise that the nation ex
pects of them ndvocacy of what
lowered tariff bills are possible
hero and now.
Accordingly the insurgent sena
tors will join forces with the
Democrats in passing not only
the reciprocity, but also the farm
ers’ free list and the lowered
wool schedule.
These are evidences that heart
en the people into believing that
the extra sesaion will after all
undo to a gratifying extent the
cheat Hnd humbug practiced upon
them in the enactment of the
| Payue-AIdrieh law.
Mexico Now Planning
Economic Freedom.
The Mexican people, thru
armed revolt, have gained polit
ical freedom, or rather have
brought about conditions favora
ble to the establishment pf sueh
freedom. v
But in modern times there may
be political freedom, and it may
mean little because it is not ac
companied by economic free
dom. Heretofore Mexico enjoyed
neither, because political oppres
sion was used to entrench and
safeguard economic oppression.
But now that the former is
gone, the way to abolishing the
latter becomes 'dearer.
For years,” declares Abram
Gonzales, governor of the rich
mineral and timber state of Chi
huahua, “Mexico has been ex
ploited by foreigners until the
great body of the people have
nothing. We were on the verge
of becoming a nation of pnupers.
Now all special privileges shall
cense 'if we can accomplish it.
We do not intend to takn nwny
the riches of any foreigner who
legally holds them, but wo real
that under the Diaz system
the granting of concessions, with
their ruinous payments of large
sums of money to Mexican poli
ticians, was a virtual selling out
of Mexico.”
Trade concessions in Latin
American countritis have long
been known to he tho apotheosis
of graft. The concessionaires
pay tho politicians for privileges
sharp reprimand to the war*! an< J get their money back
dens for the result of what in ft h ’"* e . <,e ? 1 >'>’ «*•
ndoubtedly carelessness pure
and simple, and has declared
that similar occurrences in the
future will be the signal for dis
missal.
Two practices receive especial
condemnation—that of indiscrim
inately allowing convicts the
trivileges'of "trusties" and of
caving the camps unguarded or
insufficiently guarded. These
practices the commission rightly
considers to be "nothing less
than gross negligence.”
We take this method,” says
the statement of the commission,
of notifying each and every
warden in the state, ami they in
turn must so notify their deputy
ardens, that convicts in their
charge must be more safely
guarded and held, and where wo
consider escapes from the camp
aro too numerous or caused by
evident neglect, we will deem it
sufficient cause for the removal
of the warden.”
Georgia's present convict sys
tem i« too noteworthy a success
for it to be in the slightest de
gree hampered or retarded by the
carelessness of wardens ami sub
wardens.
Tariff Revision
Prospects.
The most cheering tariff re
vision news yet received is the
announcement that there will be
sixty votes for the reciprocity bill
in the senate, fourteen more than
enough to secure its passage.
The measure has been placed
upon its second reading in the
upper house, and all indications
1 joint to its early passage. Its
Iriends, instead of making long
and useless speeches, will confine
their activities to voting, espe
cially to voting down the mimer-
ous amendments that are sure to
ploiting and grinding tlie people
to the Inst possible degree.
Whatever may have been the
virtues of the l)iuz regime, and
undoubtedly they were ninny,
this system of graft and grind
was one of its worst vices anti
one that grew to enormous pro
portions. It hnd much to do
With the political uprising of the
people.
The new regime intends to cut
away not any vested legal rights,
but nil privileges that smack of
graft and overreaching. It is a
movement that is eminently just
nnd proper, for no sort of eeo-
norain justice is possible while
such conditions exist.
“Protect enpitnl engaged in
honest, legitimate enterprise, but
not capital that runs amuck with
the rights of the people," is to
be the working principle of re
organized Mexico, it’s not a had
principle for any government to
adopt.
Vreeland and
Witham.
While Congressman Vreeland's
suggestions, made upon his re
cent visit to Atlanta, attracted
considerable attention and were
goed, it bad not, in all probabil
ity, been noticed generally how
nearly his suggestions have been
in operation for a number of
years in the Witham banking sys
tem in Georgia nnd the South—
and with what good results.
This system has in operation
the plan of a central bank, emer
gency currency, insurance of de
posits. central clearing house nnd
improved auditing system.
And it is a notable fact that
out of approximately 100 banks
working tinder this system none
hns ever failed while connected
with it.
THE BUSINESS DOCTOR
By ROE FULKERSON
THIS WEEK IN COTTON
By J08EPH B. LIVELY.
There was a sharp setback In prices of speculative market for cotton
during the past week.
The decline was started Wednesday, following a forecast calling for In
creasing cloudiness In Texas and Oklahoma, which suggested the possibil
ity of a change In conditions for which sentiment was prepared owing to the
prolonged dry spell. The market was much unsettled during the late fore
noon of Wednesday, July being off 20 points and the new crop positions 11
to 13 points oft.
In Its summary of the situation Thursday morning The New Orleans
Times-Democrat said:
"The cotton market has been cocked and primed for an assault by the
bears during a week or ten days, but drouth In Texas, morning after morn
ing. has blocktd ths design. Monday rain was reported at El Paso, 600
miles west of the cotton belt, and a few traders sold new crops In expecta
tion of more ruin and a bearish attack. Tuesday there was talk of rain
at Havana, and a prediction of cloudy weather In the west, and the
talent began to smell a rnld. Wednesday the weather man promised both
cloudy and fair weather In Texas and some sort of a sprinkle fell at Dallas
and In Oklahoma, and the men who had been awaiting a raid stepped In and
conducted one on their own account."
Copious rnlns were reported ns having fallen In Texas Thursday and
prices responded promptly, going to the low levels of the week under gen
eral realising or liquidation and professional selling. The old crop months
were relatively the weakest, July losing 32.70 and August 32.30 per bale,
while the new crop lost to the extent of 31.70 to 32.30 per bale.
Frlday.lt was said: "An enthusiastic Texas news correspondent played
havoc with the cotton market talent by reporting a heavy general rainfall
over an extensive area. The government confirmed only a few widely scat
tered and. In the main, Inconsequential showers. But Liverpool got rain
relief cables and the hears on this side, remembering the many times In ths
past the government's Texas rainfall Information has come out belatedly,
were slow In admitting that the government was right and tho news report
wrong."
When It became’known that the Texns rains were of little. If any, bene
fit, and that temperatures were still ranging around lrto nnd above, together
with a promise of bullish week-end figures, good buyln- appeared, and re
cent sellers began covering, resulting in a sharp advance In the last hour
of Friday's session. Closing figures, however, were 25 to 53 points lower
than the previous week's dose on th e old crops, the new crops showing de
clines of 7 to 13 points.

""So your place Is not adapted to the application of the prom-sharlni
theory, eh?" It waa the Business Doctor : peaking. "You think that It re
quires high-class salesmen and people of dlatlnctly high type to appreciate
tvhat It nteana to have the advantage
of a* shdre of what they earn, eh? I
give you three more gueaaea. The
trouble wl'th you Is that you are a pig!
You want the whole thing. Times are
changing, and men are Insisting on
having a just share of the money they
make and are leaving the employera
who do not give them a show for the
fellow who does, apd you are In a fair
way to lose some of your good men.
"There are a thousand applications
of the profit-sharing princple, and as
an extreme example let me tell you of
n woman who tvertt Into partnership
with her cook. Partnership on the
profit-sharing plan. She had suffered
all thoee trials that most women suffer
with the servant question, and after
discharging her last cook she figured
up her household expenses and (bund
It was costing her $76 a month to run
her kitchen for a family of five. This
did not Include the salary of the cook,
which waa $18 a month. She went to
the Intelligence office and employed the most Intelligent woman In waiting.
This woman also wanted $18 a month, which the lady agreed to give her.
She further agreed that If she would run the kitchen on $65 a month with-
out diminishing the quality of the table, she would pay her $20, and every
dollar she saved under $65 per month she would'give her one-third of It.
Without going Into details, that table Is running within a very few dollar,
of $50 a month. The girl Is making $26 a month and ths Indy of the
house Is saving $18. Both parties to the transaction are making money
and are satisfied and happy.
"This can he made absolutely true In every transaction In the business
world. There Is no place where the profit-sharing Idea can not be worked,
and the question of haw Is merely a matter of detail, and I have never
known of an instance where the plan was ever abandoned when once be
gun. t
"Human nature Is human nature any place on earth. No man will run
hard or long without a goal to run for. No man will take physical culture
because there Is no object In view, yet when that physical culture Is put up
to one In the form of a game where there Is an object to be worked for. It
will bo persisted In. Ho also when a man Is placed on a flat salary he will
work hard foru time, but unless there Is some goal ahead, some object to
gain,'some cash to work for, he will never keep the pace. He lags not
because he Is a poor man or lasy, but Just because a man grows tired run
ning when there Is no place to run to, no goal ahead to be gnlned by run
ning.
"Put your wits to work nnd devise some scheme whereby you can hang
out a reward for your employees to work for, and you will see a general
hustle that will add dollnrs to your cash account."
A new family moved Into the neighborhood. Tho lady of the house
needed some nails to put up a shelf, so went to the nearest corner grocery
to get five cents' worth. Tho proprietor explained that he did not sell them.
Hhe went to the next corner and asked tho next grocer for them, and again
explained what she wanted with them. Ho told her he did not sell them, but
ho hnd n box of assorted nails, which she could take home with her and
use ns many as she liked, and then send back the box. He alio Inquired
If she hnd a hammer. She used the nails and brought them back. Now gro
cer No. 1 Is wondering why that now family walks right past his door and
goes to another mnn to buy their provisions. They buy $60 a month from
the fellow who had the box of nails and the accommodating disposition.
"Verily, ho that bloweth not Jtla own horn, the same shall not he
blown.” Tho dally papers have supplanted the horn In these days, but the
rule Is still ti good one.
Cramps are painful contractions of
muscles. Alto cramps are Involuntary.
An Involuntary contraction of a muscle
unaccompanied by pain la .Imply a
epasm, and when the spasm occurs In
the face It la called a "tic.”
When a spasm, or cramp consists of
one continuous contraction, It le said
to be a "tonic” spasm; but when It
consists of a succession of Intermittent
short contractions, It Is, "clonic." When
a spasm bcomes Intense, It is said to
be tetanic, because the spasms of teta
nus or lockjaw are of this extreme
type. Several poisons, Including,
strychnine and the tetanus toxin, may
produce tetanic spasms. When many
muscle, are Involved together In spasms
the condition is a convulsion.
There Is one form of cramp or spasm
which has the doctors guessing, name
ly, the agonizing cramp of the calf of
the leg, from which many persons suf
fer at night Two kinds of people suf
fer most from thl* calf cramp—consti
tutionally nervous persons and Indi
viduals of poor nutrition. "It Is caused,”
says a great Qerman authority, "by
any revere or unusual movement (such
as suddenly extending the leg), gen
erally during sleep, and Is limited to
one side. The calf becomes as hard aa
a board and Is very painful to pressure
for a considerable time afterward.
Whether varicose (distended) veins
play a role In It, development I, very
doubtful. But It I* certain that an ab
normal blood Is a predisposing cause,
because spawn of the leg Is observed In
diabetes, In Intsrlc fever, in diarrhoea,
Ip gout. In alcoholism and also after
pregnancy In which, perhaps as a
symptom of blood stagnation. It Is very
common."
A thoughtful medical friend suggests
to tho writer that leg cramps may be
due to a sort of short-circuiting of the
nerve,. Every muscle contracts In re
sponse to a discharge of nerve force
Into the muscle. If, as Is here suggest
ed, one gets the "wires crossed," so to
speak, then an Impulse which was In
tended to be delivered to the breathing
muscles during sleep might become
"short-circuited” and land In the calf
of the leg, there to "explode” and cramp
the muscles cruelly. Also It Is sug
gested that cramps In various parts of
the body may result from nerve Im
pulses originating In points of Irrita
tion—nn aching tooth, for example, or
the grip of the scar tissue In a healing
wound upon sensitive nerve fibers.
Night cramps are sometimes the fore
runners of epilepsy.
Massage of the aching muscles is
about ths only Immediate treatment
that helps, tho a hot application may
be necessary. More open air nnd less
worry should be the general treatment,
except In stubborn cases which cnll for
the doctor and his more potent means.

WINE FOR THE HOLY COMMUNION
Editor The Georgian;
Mr. D. O'Hanlon, In his article In
The Constitution of recent date, on
wine for the holy communion, like
many others, thinks that wine to bo
wine must evolve alcohol. The pure
Juice of the grape before fermentation
Is the wlno of the Bible, and when Its
use Is Interdicted it Is called red wine,
or wine that will Intoxicate. Mr. O'Han
lon quotes what he thinks Is Bible, "Bo
temperate In all things" (It Is not In the
book), to sustain him In the view that
the use of Intoxicants In moderation Is
no harm. Ho doesn't know, perhaps, ns
many of us do, that men that have re
formed from a drunken life, who knew
the only safety for them from a drunk
ard’s grave, Is to "Touch not, taste not,
handle not” (this quotation Is Bible),
that went back to their debauchery by
having the old fires of alcohol kindled
within, by using wine at the commun
ion table that was Intoxlcatlve, to say
nothing of the many that have been
ruined, whose first step downward was
occasioned by the use nf Intoxicating
wine at the communion table. Tho
pure Juice of the grape that has been
sterilised Is wine, nnd that Is the kind,
and the only snfo kind, that the W. T.
“ U. recommends.

UNCLE WALT * JSSSm
The day is Jong and trying, and heavy ia the heat; and
often I am sighing, while dragging weary feet/ the 8un is
burning o’er me; there is no grateful shade; the
REST AT rows stretch out before me, that I must hoe and
spade. But when the sun has wended his path.
EVENING way to the west, my weary toil is ended, and
evening brings me rest. Then comes the kind
word spoken by loved ones at the door; then comes the sleep
unbroken, until the night is o’er; then comes the tuneful passage
of restful twilight hours; then comes the mystic message of
winds among the flowers. The day may treat me meanly, and
rob my life of zest; but evening comes serenely, and evening
brings me rest. And life is but a longer and sadder summer
day; the weary heat is stronger, and rockier the way; the
watchword is “Endeavor,” and till the day is done the laborer
may never escape the glaring sun. And thus the harsh world
grinds him against its rugged breast, till starlit evening finds
him and evening brings him rest. WALT MASON

In the United States amounts to a lit
tle over eight billions of dollars each
year. By actual calculation, It can
bo proven that tbo liquor trade only
uses 64-100 of 1 per cent of the total
production of the farm. There can
be no danger of prohibition doing any
harm to, the farmers at this rate.
