WITHOUT BENEFIT OF WATSON. Mr. W. J. Jlarrls'a reply t" Thomas Watson is good and helpful reading. It tray not help Mr. Harris to become governhr of Georgia but though this consummation would he grateful and satiefactory to us, we do not think It matters as much who becomes the governor us that the people of Geor gia shall throw off the yoke of petty animosities nnd personal grudges, by which Tom Watson holds Ids power. Read Mr. Harris's letter. It Is dig nified and free from the vituperation and Insult which characterises Tom Watson's effusions, hut It Is plain and to the point. The candidate who can say to Tom Watson: "I would not ask your support, even If by ihlfng so I could become the governor of my state," has the right stuff In him. The way In which the politicians of Georgia have snuggled up to Tom Watson, for the fear that his power of detraction and hatred might he used against them, has served to encourage the vindictive and personal element as a controlling force In the destinies of the state. Our Interests are too large, out fu ture too great for such humiliating and degrading emotions. l,et the broad progressive and high minded men of the stale stand together against these destructive Influences. In his closing paragraph Mr. Harris tells Tom Watson, "You live on hute anil devote your time and, talent to endeavoring to de stroy the tharacters of some of our best men. instead of helping Hie mass es. and for this reason your following of loyal men long ago deserted you." No political office Is honorably held with hatred us ita supporter. PERSONAL RIGHTS OF LABORING MEN. We are harassed with doubts as to whether Mr. John D. Rockefeller's (It Is John t). Junior, he it understood) championship of the right of the In dividual workman to sell his time and labor at bargain prices Is fully appre ciated. Mr. Rockefeller aaya he Is Just one of Ihe many who are Interested In the Colorado mines, but It Is a matter of principle with him, not to accept dic tation front the strikers, and he In tends to stand right up to the right of •vary man in this country to work if he wants to, regardless of whether he belongs to a labor organization or not. This la very fine of Mr. Rocekefeller Doubtless be fully believes that his at titude la exalted and noble. It makes hint indignant to see the honest work ing man coerced by the unions. It Is a fa! nst hts notions of freedom and Independence to see men glad and will ing to labor yet forbidden to do so by organisations that purport to have the Interacts of the laboring men at heart. The little figure which Mr. John D Rockefeller, Junior, has omitted to add Into hie column Is Just this: No man really wants to spend long hours of hard toll In the black depths of the earth. They only do this work be cause Fate limits them to their choice of vocations. No man would delib erately decide upon a life of long hours and poor pay in vocations which are coerced, by unfortunate conditions and the stress of personal circum stances to accept whatever small and disadvantageous opportunities present themselves. The labor organizations simply try to overcome one compelling force by another. It Is their object to band the laborers together under a voluntary pledge and set up restrictions as ab solute and as Inflexible as those which exist because of our huperfect social system Of course, the restrictions Imposed by the unions are for the purpose of etamisrditiling the price and bettering the condltlone of thev often Repose personal sacrifice and they very frequently conflict* with private and rights. Yet hsrd as thev may api <st ... not think that 1 laboring men will be any better off for the championship of Mr. John l>. Rockefeller, Jr.. m>r can we suppose that they will show due gratitude to him as the guardian of their right to accept the coercions of " fate" In pres ence to the coercions of the labor un ions Familiarize Yourself With Augusta's Health Laws The Herald herewith upen request of the Health Department of the Woman’s Clubs of Augusta is publishing every Sunday certain sections from the city’s health ordinance.

Cin cinnati has a good looking third sucker in Nlehoff and the Boston Braves a promising first baseman in Schmidt. Kopf. a kid shortstop with the Athletics, fills Jack Barry’s shoes in good simps when tim latter is unable to play. Scott of the Bed Sox appears to be a real star at shortstop since Helule Wagner has been Incapacitated. Jack Leary, the new first baseman of the Browns, also seems like a sure success. Capable outfielders also have broken in. The Boston Braves have Jim Mur ray. the Pirates, Joe Kelly, the Cubs, Johnston the slugging king of the Pa cific Coast and the Cardinals, Cruise. Good Players. The Federal Letgm* also is well to the fore with good young hall pJnycvs. Max Fleck, the Chicago outfielder. Is probably one of the hem of the bunch. Tinker calls this kid Ty Cobb tlie Sec ond. because of ids sensation yj base running. and the youth also is a good hitler and fielder, 'Pom McGuire, a voting p tcher, Cwft Coles in the outfield and Jack Furred at second are other good striplings on Tinker s team.
