Is not this about the season for
former Governor Joseph M.’ Brown to
break into print?
As we are all given, more or less,
these days to the discussion of “in
visible empires”, it occurs to us that
former Emperor Wilhelm of Germany
is entitled to full consideration.
A great complaint is being made in
some" sections because of the large
amount 5 of soiled and dirty currency
in circulation. \ While there is still
plenty of soap and water in sight, a
Ittle thing like that won’t - disturb

This j unemployment -conference in
Washington has brought out the very
striking fact thta we have an army
of very near five million people who
aro on the Job of loafing for the sim
ple reason that the bulk of them are
npt willing to work for living wages!
That movement to curtail unlimited
debate in the United States senate
is aimed in the right direction. It
would save the people of the country
large sums of money and it would
save the average Senator large quan
tities of hot air.
Premier Brland, of France. Is
in a statement In which he says he is
coming to that Armanent confer
ence in Washington, rumors and pro
tests to the contrary notwithstanding.
We are sure that the distinguished
French statesman will receive a most
cordial welcome.
We wish Columbus success when
she t tkos on her new system of gov
ernment. on January first. However,
as we have often repeated, when dis
cussing the question, no government
can he any larger or any smaller
than the men who are functioning It.
After all, it Is thy men who admin
ister affairs, who make a government
good, bad, or indlfTorent. There Is
no question amout that.
The Initial edition of the Athena
Daily News, anew afternoon news
paper being published in Athens, with
Thomas J. Simmons, formerly of the
Macon News, is before us. It is a
very handsome edition consisting of
twenty-two pages and each one of
them Is a demonstration of the fact
that The News has assembled in Ath
ens a first class newspaper plant.
We wish for our Athens namesake
an abundance of genuine success.
Judge Lazarus. of ’Friseo. who pro

Fatty Arbuckle, is right in the po

sisted on a higher moral plane from

MONUMENT TO JEFFERSON
DAVIS.
It is interesting and gratifying to
read comments from northern news
papers on the erection of a monument
to Jefferson Davis at his birthplace
in Kentucky. The gratifying part of
it lies in the fact that it slows that
some of those who have devoted
much of their time, talents and space
to, criticising and condemning this
great and patriotic America, are
bringing therjasplvnes to view in a dif
ferent light, not that it makes any
particular difference to the people or
.the south, not that.it would change
their estimate of the president of the
Confederacy f but it shows thi these
former abuse-dispensers haVe' seen
the error of their way, and are man
ly enough to how a disposition to do
the proper thing. The New York
Tribune is one of the papers-to which
we have particular- reference. The
Tribune discusses the matters as fol
lows:
The erection of a stately obe
lisk in memory Jefferson Davis
to mark his birthplace attracts lit
tle attention. Yet not long ago
protests would have been volumi
nous and forceful. Great has
been the change. Multitudes who
once have frowned upon the shaft
now regard it with a degree of
approbation as denoting not so
much glorification of an attempt
secession as confirmation of a
perpetual and indissoluble union.
Jefferson Davis for many years
an eminent and respectful pub
lic servant of thfc United States,
gallant in war, wise in; council,
capable in administration and
pure in character* and for four
years was the head of a govern
ment of a great people—a govern
ment which, no matter how much
or how justly we may condemn
it as*unlawful did exist de facto,
exercised all the functions of gov
ernment and commanded our own
recognition as a beligerent pow
er. Such a career bulks large in
American history and is not un
worthy of commemoration.
Years ago, largely by the .vote
of New England and the old free
states, the name of Robert E.
Lee was inscribed by the side of
that of Ulyesses S. Grant in the
hall of fame of great Americans.
When that was done the last bar
rier of partition between what
were once the discordant sections
of our comman country was brok
en down. Now after
of a century, it is profitable to re
call that the two great civilion
protagonists of otir domestic j con-
sprang from the "dark
and bloody ground” of Kentucky,
only a few miles apart in space
and less than a year apart In
time. To the one the whole na
tion has paid such memorial tri
butes as not more than one other
in all Its history has known. To
the other the nation will not be
grudge such monumental honors
as his native state may bestow.
When Horace Greeley signed the
bail bond of Jefferson Davis great
was tile burst of wrath against
him. die happened to be In a
spirit something more than half
a century ahead of his time.
The patriotism of Jefferson Davis
ami his devotion to the great prin
ciples of our government were never
questioned by broad-minded Ameri
cans, even thought they may have
questioned the wisdom of his Judg
ment. That ho did what he believed
he was justified In doing, what he
believed he had the right to do, even
his opponents of broad visiou and un
prejudiced mind admitted even then,
and the years that have passed have
ah wn that many of those who no bit
terly censured him then, now take a
different view of the man, the lofti
ness of his ideals and the purity oi
his character. And more than once
has the supreme court of the United
States, the greatest judicial body in
the land, handed down decisions up
holding the principle of States* Rights
—the great principle for which Jeffer
sen Davis stood and for which he sac
rificed more, perhaps- than any other
American. —Columbus Enquirer-Sun.

TRADE AT HIOtME AND HELP
BRUNSWICK.
A recent editorial in the Emporia,
Kan., Gazette, on trading with mail
order houses has been copied in many
papers. It is forcefutfy written, and
presents the subject without frills in
a manner to produce conviction. In
part it says:
; "The man who buys his goods of
mail order houses, and expects his
neighbors in Emporia’to buy goods of
him or to buy labor of him, or to buy
professional service him, is eco
nomically a lefech. He is Supking in
dustrial blood out of the town and
gives none back. He sends his profits
lout of town like a Chirfaman, and has
no more right to a standing in the
community than a foreigner. We are
all neighbors industrially in this
town, and the man who sends away
for his goods is not one of us. He is
|of another industrial, system and de
serves no man’s support in Empor
jia.’’
Commenting on this the Augusta
I.Herald, says:
i "Asa matter of fact ? however, it
jwill almost invariably be found that
jjjoods bought at home are cheaper
and better than goods bought of mail
prder houses in distant cities. They
cannot sell goods of the same quali
ty cheaper than the merchants at
home, for in the mail order system
the expense of handling goods is
greater, which would offset any pos
sible advantage a mail order house
may have in buying larger lots <ff
goods than the home merchant. And
in addition to this the customer is
compelled -to pay the shipping eost,
which is always larger proportionate
ly on small packages than on large
ones. So reason teaches that mail
order goods cannot be cheaper than
borne bought. When they appear to
he cheaper it is because they are in
terior goods.
"Then also In buying at home the
buyer may make a personal selection
with the actual goods before him.
Pictures and printed descriptions of
goods are worth very little because
;h so never tell of their defects.
These the buyer must look for him
so'f. except where he can trust the
dealer to help him make his selec
li n. In this way money is saved and
hotter satisfaction assured in buy
ing goods at home, than can result
from small order trade. Money is
absolutely lost sometimes by ordering
something by mail ithout acquaint
ance with the person or firm dealt
with, in getting goods that fail to
come up to expectations.
"In patronizing a distant mail order
house the buyer follows a course
which directly as well as indirectly
is against his own interests."
Referring to the above the Atnori
cus Times-Recorder says:
"There is a wealth of suggestion in
this for the people of Americus. The
man or the woman who sends away
from the home town for goods is do
ng just that much toward preventing
ho building up of the city and is cor
■espondingly pulling it down. A city
k hat hampers the development of its
own business Interests in such a way
--annot K n> w as it should. Selfisfi per
-,onl interests, not t mention local
patriotism, dictate buying at home,
the people living in a town are all
•rcsumably drawing their living from
t. directly or indirectly. Anything
’at says the life blood of the com
•unity lessens their ability to make
good living t’s business men or em
•oyoes. or diminishes their income
vm property and other interests. It
accordingly a very short sighted
l.ey that sends money out of town

iome. And ninety-nine times out of
hundred the goods desired, or some
ting that i* fully their equivalent,
