THOSE PEACE TREATIES.
'[’ho treaties of peace will) Go
many and Austria-Hungary, tin
signing of which was made possibh
by resolution of the American con
gress, dominated by the republicai
party, is something new among 11a
lions, and a precedent that will la
far-reaching in its effects.
Denounce it as we may as Un
crowning infamy of the American
age—as being disgraceful beyond
measurement —it is nevertheless
the handiwork of the American
people. It was enacted at the
ballot-box on the ides of last No
vember. It illustrates the extremes
of demagogy, the results of fanati
eism, the bitterness of hatred, the
curses of ignorance. It points a
moral that the American people
have yet to learn: That in de
mocracy the ballot-box is a sacred
tiling, because it shapes the destiny
of the nation whether for weal or
woe. Being such it should be
carefully guarded against the ig
noraut and vicious; it should be
placed beyond the power of dema
gogues to control it.
It is all true that this “peace bv
resolution” is an apology to Ger
many for having participated in
the war that prevented us from
becoming German vassals; it is an
insult to the Allies whoso company
America joined to stay the vicious
hand of the Bosche, and an humili
ation to the proud young Ameri
cans who laid their all on the altar
of sacrifice for world feodom.
It is a reflect ion upon the
American people from the stand
point, of Christianity. Does it cor
rectly represent us as a Christian
nation? Does it place us alongside
of Germany —a nation that lias
forgotten God? Is it not a pledge
that our God, as with Germany, is
hatred, malace, bigotry, Gold!
This may be a severe arraign
ment of those responsible for the
"peace by resolution,” but was not
this power given to them by an
overwhelming vote of the Ameri
can people? The people have put
America in tins miserable hole,
they are responsible for it and they
are the only corrective power.
If president Harding and his
most noble senators think they
can sidestep the League of Nations,
the Tribune thinks they will have
another “think” coming their way
in the near future.
llenry Lincoln Johnson, the
colored politician who seems to be
a thorn in the flesh of the Repub
lican party, is reported to be
seriously ill from a stroke of par
alysis. If maV be the thorn will
be removed by death.
In writing a biographical sketch
of Gen. John Coffee of Georgia
Mrs. .1. 1.. Walker, of Waycross,
reiterates the error that Coffee
county, Georgia, was named for
him. It is unfortunate this bit
of history has become a tangled
skein.
A community which is divided
in sentiment and line of conduct
is too sickly to prosper. The citi
zens may be divided in matters of
polities and religion, but when if
comes to community interests they
should be found all pulling the
same way.
It is a great pity that the mis
creants who are destroying the
property of the Atlantic. Birming
ham and Atlantic railroad can’t be
captured and punished. The law
could not punish them too severely;
no more dastardly crime eau be
committed.
The result of the election in At
kinson county tomorrow means
one of two things—a tax rate of
$22.50 on the SI,OOO if bonds carry,
ora tax rate of $32.50 on the SI,OOO
if they do not carry. Be sure to
vote for a low tax rate —"For
Court house bonds."
Why, Oh Why?
WIJXAOOOCHEE, Gy.,

Dear Editor:
W'ha; is it that lias thrown Sen
ator Harris in such a fright? Why
is lie making suc h a feverish, bur
ned, town to town canvass of the
State in this political off year?
What's the idea? What’s his ob
ject? Why is lie so interested in
he welfare of the Democratic
party now when last year, when
the life of the party was at stake,
not once did he raise his voice in
behalf of Democracy? lie spent
the entire time of the campaign on
a sight-seeing tour of the far East,
chaperoning a parly of married
ladies.
i see, by the papers, he is claim
ing credit for everything good that
lias transpired since the fall of
Adam. He lias not been in Wash
ington enough in the past two
years to accomplish any tiling. The
record shows that he has answered
the fewest roll calls in the last two
years of any member of the United
States Senate. If one is in Wash
ington and wants to see Senator
Harris the best position to take is
a stand at the railroad depot, as
he will soon be either getting on
or off a train.
Ail of his talk about going to
Eranee and jerking General I Tr
ailing around by the hair of liis
head and making him discharge a
ship load of young men, and his
bringing them home with him is
the merest rot. Gen. Pershing as
commander of the American army
did not have the authority to dis
charge the humblest soldier in the
ranks. That has to be done in
Washington, 1). and these
young men would have come home
just as soon and just as sure if
Senator Harris had remained at
homo where he belonged. As for
myself I have never had any re
speet for Senator Harris since he
came to the Macon convention in
PH I as the supposed mouthpiece
of President Wilson, hearing that
dictatorial, egotistical, message
from the President that Lite con
vention must nominate Hardwick.
1 have always been glad Hardwick
proved to be such a thorn in Presi
dent Wilson’s flesh. Senator liar
ris had his little rooster to crow
for Hardwick at (,hc Macon con
vention and I am very much of
the opinion Hardwick’s little
rooster will crow again in 1921.
< )ur own congressman, Lankford,
accomplished more for the farmer
and working people in tile amend
ment he succeeded in incorporat
ing: in the Farmer’s Belief Bill
than Senator Harris won id accom
plisli if he was to remain a member
of the United States senate for a
thousand years. Lankford accom
plished more for the people in that
one stroke than Turn M atson and
Hark w ick have accomplished in a
lifetime of “Hell and Hurrah!"
1 think in 1922 Lankford will be

.1 1CKFEKHON WILCOX, M. D.
Is South Georgia really prepared
to receive any considerable immi
gration! Ilovv many families can
be comfortably housed in Atkinson
county? Before inviting new
comers our big land owners should
divide their lands into small farms
with fairly good dwelling and out
houses on each; it takes that to
prepare them to receive new
comers. It would pay the land
owner to do this; it will enable
them to quickly dispose of their
surplus lands.
Is it true that the venerable
Chatham AiTHlery has been junk
ed along with the “Punch” that
helped to make it famous? The
organization, a heritage of Revolu
tionary days, should not be per
mitted to pass and be forgotten
—come what may to the “Punch."
A Savannah landmark of w hich .all
Georgia was proud.
If Georgia is to take a cue from
Louisiana, according to Mr. Hoi
loinon, she must first have a con
vention to frame for her a new and
progressive constitution. Her old
one has been patched beyond re
cognition. A convention would
be welcomed by progressive Geor
gians; indeed, they have been clam
oring for it for years.

their best interest in the matter.
