ON TO MEXICO CITY
As deeply to be deplored as la tho
cause of armed trouble and interven
tion with Mexico, yet thsre la no dis
guising the fact that the etep once
liiken of landing marines and selling
tlie porta of Mexico, It will be many
a long tiny before this country la free
from entanglement* In that country.
Then why not face the Inevitable?
Why not march on to Mexico City and
do whnt must bo done In the perma
nent pacification of the warring fac
tion* In Mexico. For many month*
the belief haa been growing that the
United State* mu*t do thl* work.
The flr*t *tep hn* been taken, it
will he necessary to complete tho work
nnd the Job I* not going to get any
better while waiting for It to bu done.
Tho sooner the United State* seises
all the Mexican porta and take* the
City ol Mexico, tho better the chance
to arrive at an understanding with
the warring ruction* In Mexico and
bring about peine and order to that
war-torn country.
Apparently there la no chance for
the Mexicans to do thl* for themselves
Th>- world la looking to the United
St ter to do the Job.»end with the
Monroe Iwtrlne staring u» In the face
thl* country will not allow other na
tion* to do the work. It I* up to thl*
country. It I* u Job disagreeable and
co*tly nn.l yet one that we have un
dertaken. The sooner It la started the
quicker It I* going to bn done.
With Mexico Otty taken by the
United State*, thle country then will

COUNTY COMMISSIONER NIXON'S
FINE RECORD.
For a rood many year* the voter*
and taxpayer* of Richmond county
made a flaht to place tba attain ot
the county under a board of commla
alonera. One of the leader* In thla
lt*ht for county efficiency, alone with
other prominent citizens vu Mr. O.
H. Nixon. When thla waa accomplish
ed, he thought Ilia duty waa done,
but at the carneat request of thoau
most Intimately connected with thla
change in county affntra, he waa per -
auaded to go on the board of county
commlealonera. Today he la the chair
man of the and the magnifi
cent record that the board has made
I* euch to commend Iteelf to every
cltlayn and ta.;-ayer of the county.
There is no excuac for injecting poli
tic* Into the management of county
affaire under a board of county com
missioners. It Is unfortunate that
there should be a fight, a political
fight, for places <in the county board
when all the people want to see U.e
county out of debt, put on a sound
business basis, and the taxes of the
people reduced. This la being rapidly
accomplished under the board of coun
ty commissioners. Their hand* should
be upheld In thla good work.
Mr. Nixon deserves the endorsement
of the voter* of the county for his
good work and for his faithful and ef
ficient service on the board.
Jt I* this kind of work and this kind
°f results that the t»oard of coupty
commissioners was created t- do for
the people of Richmond county.

And what tho M. ft M. Ask'd Is urg
ing Its members to do 1* good advice
for other good citizens. Money Is
needed to complete the great work of
protecting Augusta from flooda.
incidentally, Augusta Is spending
too much money and needed reform
and retrenchment must one of these
days take place In city affairs. As
long as the politicians of either fac
tion hold tho reins there's no hope.
The present administration t* Just as
extravagant as the preceding one—anil
so will the succeeding one he. All po
litical administrations arc going to
spend all the money they can get their
handn on. It's simply a question of
where and how tho money is to bo
spent/
If Augusta te ever to get out of debt
and live within Its Income. H will tnke
a commission form of government to
do it.
In the meantime, the bond Issue will
he lost unless both factions of politics
bury the hatchet, get behind it and
support tho movement. As a good eitl
sen, wishing to seo Augusta complete
th* work of flood protection, get on

Oh, it is maddening. The Lonely
Mood doesn't under*tnnd, it take* ad

doesn't know that I have longed, yes.

have never fount! him. I am not cold,
I am not mercenary, 1 ain not critical,
but I want Love. Love that i* real,
love that thrill* me with its sincerity,
Its earnestness. Love that has under
standing sympathy. Love that em
braces every phase of good corn rad
ship and mental ecstacy.
In desperation, I crush on my hat
and rush out Into the cold air for a
brisk walk. I will get away from the
Lonely Mood, I cry. I will mingle with
the happy throng along the lighted
highway of the great city. I will rub
shoulders with humanity, even though
I be no part of them.
Even here—keeping step with the
shuffling multitude, I catch glimpses
of arms linked In arms, eyes that gaze
softly Into eyes. I hear stray hits of
conversation mingled with endear
ments. Wherever 1 look, wherever I
REVEILLE
(By RALPH METHVEN THOMSON.)
MEN of the South, the alien stands
Within tho shadow of your door.
With lustful heart and longing hands,
To snatch your wealth forevermore;
He knows of all your riches housed,*
Of treasures that you fain would keep,
And, yet. you scorn to be aroused
From your aristocratic sleep!
NEW England ascertained too late
That she to him had fallen prey;
The lordly North, esteemed as great,
Kowtows to him In yoked dismay;
The rugged West forsook her name,
in mute accordance with his plans,
And you alone are left to Fame,
As native born Americans!
MEN of the South, how can you dore
In consequential Indolence.
When mongrel tongues and foreign foes
Would profit at your blood's expense?
Whnt of the trust your fathers gave—
What of the ages still to be—
If you shall dig Tradition's grave
At Europe's importunity?
YOUR hungry fields are lean from grass,
Your fatted forests wail for care;
lYom sloping strnnd to mountain pass
Neglect is stalking everywhere.
Why wll| you close to truth your eyes”
The fight Is Just that you should wage!
Men of the South, awake—arise—
Behold your princely heritage!

"It would be pretty hard on an old

Head Harber.
"Yea," aald the Manicure lutdv, “but

listen, I hear the cry of a lonely heart
so—Love.
Slowly and dejectedly I turn away
nway from the endearments—away
from the glances—to the sheltered
protection of my tiny room. The
Lonely Mood tugs mercilessly at my
sleeve as I turn on the feeble ray of
gas light.
"Its your own fault,” It sneers, ‘‘you
too have had chances, but you refus
ed.”
“Yes, and I’m glad I did refuse,” I
rage, "f knot? that In this great
world of humans the Real Man is
waiting for me, and until he finds me
I‘will remain a recluse.”
“No lips shall touch mine, no arms
shall encircle me,—he. the Real Man.
shall find me untarnished by contact
with the world.”
The Lonely Mood has vanished. Th
the stillness, with eyes closed I whis
per: "I will he patient, I will wait for
you, and you will not be disappointed
in me. Reek mo, Oh Real Man have
have faith in my existence as i have
In yours."

FOOD NOT DRINK.
The teacher had written on the
blackboard the sentence, “The toast
was drunk in silence,” and turned to
her class for them to discover the
mistake. Little Tommy waved his hand
frantically, and, going to the board,
scrawled the correction, “The toast
was eaten in silence.” —Western Mail.
NO COMPARISON.
An Englishman and an American were
standing before the wonders of the Vic

Englishman said:
“Surely you must concede that these
falls are far grander than your Niagara
falls?”
“What?” replied the American. “Com
pare these to our Niagara falls? Why
man alive, they are a mere persplv
tion.”—Ladies’ Home Journal.
