Frankness is ;i mosl admirable

Current news say that Senator
Hoke Smith is to have a public
audience with the people at At
lanta before he returns to Wash
ington and define his position on
many issues including the Peace
Treaty anti League of Nations.
The Senator is coming to judg
ment.
There seems to be a wave of
rrinte sweeping over the country
and it is not confined to one sex,
age, color or condition. Life is
esteemed too cheaply, ownership
of property disregarded, and social
license too liberal. If is the same
condition that prevailed during
the reconstruction period follow
ing the civil war.
The cotton conference in session
at New Orleans this week will
probably fix the minimum cotton
price at 40c. per pound. Gov.
Hugh Dorsey and Senator Hoke
Smith reached New Orleans Mon
day to take part in the conference.
The senator will renew his vows to
the assembled farmers and promise
(o give l them great legislation per
force of his mighty influence in
the senate. Hoke is a joke.
Notwithstanding the world is
full of heartaches and dissapoint
merits there is much in life for
which to be thankful. If is an era
when tardiness is the rule, no em
ployee answers to roll call, no
promise is executed at the time
appointed. It has unjointed all
business expectations. Yet the
people are exist ing; they arc told
the count ry is prosperous, t hey be
lieve it and are content. It may
lead to putting the country on a
cash basis, when everybody is put
on notice they cannot trade
without the cash accompanying
the delivery of the goods. Such
policy would go a long way toward
weeding out the heart aches and
disappointments of life.
The Republican leaders seem
determined to delay action on the
peace treaty until next year to be
used as political capital to influ
ence Ihe national election. They
care nothing for suffering humanity.
The nations of Europe are waiting
wearily for the United States sen
ate to speak the word that will
give them freedom and a definite
policy in the pursuit of happiness.
These nations have no political or
commercial status and can have
none until the American senate
acts in the matter, rat ification or
no ratification. And yet this body
of supposed great men dilly-dally
for no apparent purpose but par
tisan political advantage and a
little cheap personal notoriety.
It is time the people should turn
these dastards out of office.
MRS. ALICE BARTLEY
Announces that she has moved from the Allen building on King
street to the Smith building, facing the railroad, next door to
H. L. Lankford, and have in store an excellent stock of Fall
and Winter Millinery and Ladies' and Children's specialties.
COME ONE! COME ALL!

PLAIN TALK.
The Tribune is not grouchy but
it is t fine for plain talk.
The county commissioners have
set their faces toward building
some good and decent roads in
the county; they are planning to
hond the county for the necessary
funds to build and furnish a court
house and a jail, 't hese improve
ments arc pressing no essities and
the Tribune is heartily in accord
with the commissioners in their
effort to provide them.
The County Hoard of Education
is working honestly and earnestly
to give the children an education
at the least possible cost. They
are proceeding as their judgment
dictates is for the best educational
iliterest of t he county.
The other officials in their
spheres arc endeavoring to create
a sentiment in favor of law and
order, to impress upon tin* people
the dignity of the law and their
duty to assist in maintaining if.
Hut these things, within them
selves, will not make a prosperous
new county so long as the people
remain clannish and selfish, with
sections and school districts array
ed the one against the other. It
will require united action to ac
complish anything worth while,
and bring growth and prosperity
to the people. One section hold
ing back expecting to gain some
future advantage over another
section, clings to a phantom which
will never materialize, and it
might as well be abandoned. No
use to waste time and thought on
it.
What the Tribune is saying is
plain talk, but it is the truth, and
the sooner the people learn the
truth the better for them and the
county.
XXX
Now, a little talk with the eiti
zens of Pearson.
Do you want to see your city
grow and prosper? If you do,
clannishness must come to an
end and everybody pull together.
It matters not how you may dil
fer in politics and religion, when
it comes to public interest and the
building up of tile city, you must
be like the horses in Pharaoh’s
chariot: All pull together and in
the same direction.
If there is a person living in
Pearson so selfish that lie lira,vs
for the prosperity of "Me and my
wife, my soil John and his wife;
we four and no more," lie should
have the courage and honesty to
quit it or move out of the city, to
a more congenial clime for his
kind.
Another thing should be almn-'
doned; the transaction of public
business in private. The people
are entitled to know everything
their public servants are doing for
their good. In no other way can
hearty co-operation be secured.
Encroachment upon private and
public property should cease.
Pearson is not the happy-go-lucky
place of a few years back. The
policies that Obtained and were
satisfactory then must now be
changed. The change must come
gradually but surely. The best
interests of the city and the pub
lie demands it.
Let's have a Chamber of Com
merce, discuss the needs pf the
city and plan to secure what she
needs in her advancement. Lot's
be an unit. It is little by little
that all great things are accom
plished, ami in this way the city
can be made to grow.
This is plain talk, but it is the
truth.
Scandal will rub out like dirt
when it is dry.
