Lloyd George, Walter George and
Georgia are all in the spotlight at the
moment.
The Atlantic Coast Line has let
the icontract lor the double tracking
of a portion of jts tracks in Georgia.
That’s another good sign of the times
Once in the life of every politician
the deck strikes. It has struck if
Gorgia in unmistakable tones!
Glynn comity deserves honorable
mention. She has managed to pick
the successful candidate twice in very
rapid succession.
Twenty communists have been ar
rested in St. Joseph. Mich., charged
with plotting to overthrow the gov
ernment of the United States! Phew,
but what a horrible thought!
We wonder if there is any other of
fice in sight fer which Governor Hard
wick would like to be defeated, if
so, we believe the people of Georgia
are in humor to deliver the goods.
Was the fact that lie was an old
Watson man or that he toed Hard
wick's measure to the satisfaction of
the veters of Georgia that account
ed for the election of Major McGregor
to the head of the uension deprat
mept?
The Hon. Seaborn Wright may not
return to that delightful retreat on tep
of Lookout mountain and figure it
out how he has fallen from grace in
the eyes cf the voting people in dear
old Georgia.
Bunk Cooper ran true to form. He
did not carrv a single county, -helped
in the expense account; had his name
mentioned as a candidate for the
United States senate and all that's
about as usual.
A New York judge is horror-strick
in by the information adduced rn the
witness stand by a Chinese witness,
that to him an oath on a Bible meant
noting at all. The wonder is that
this Chinaman knew what the Bible
3’eally was.
The coming of the U. S. S. Toucey
to Brunswick on “Navy Hay” was an
appreciable recognition of the port
by the United States Navy depart
ment. The officers and men of the
Toucey will receive a most cordial
welcome in this city.
How quickly have the women learn
ed th c habit of chasing for office.
There are twenty-one women candi
dates out for in the House and
two for the senate, in the general elec
tions to be held on November 7th. So
after all men and women differ but
little, in the matter of seeking the
easy places of the world.
Brunswick extends a very cordial
welcome this moring to the represen
tatives of the Jounior Order of Ameri
can Mechanics, who -oms for their
district meating to this city. The
order is represented by high class
and representative Georgians, who rep
resent the best there is in labor an 1
they are thrice welcome to Bruns
wick.
The fact that Judge J. P. Highsmith
has ret October Ml as the date for
hearing the petition to validate the
bond issues in the jnterest of the St.
Simon highway and the exetension
of the city sewerago system, will he
.nleasing information to the people
of Brunswick. These are both devel
opments of prime importance in which
this whole community has a very deep
Interest.
The .St. Simon Board of Trade has
jvitii commendable enterprise arrang
'd a big barbecue on October 271 li,
td'which the'members of the Young
Mej.'ff C.lnb. the Board of Trade amt
ol'.c.rs in the city have been Invited.
Wc should turn put in force and thus
express our appreciation! of those
sturdy’islanders.' who are always back
of Brunswick on progressive lines.
THE VICTORY OF JUDGE
GEORGE
Prom out in the disturbed coud'
tion that has confronted the Georgia
Democracy for more than two score
years, comes the victory of Judge
Walter F. George of Vienna, in hid
I race for the senate. Lixe a brilliant
ray of sunlight into a long darkenen
chamber!
The fact that the sturdy yeomanry
of the state, under the great Demo
cratic slogan, has risen in its might
and squelched those who for all I
these years have been misrepresent
ing the party, is such a heartening
sign of the times, that is must bring
comfort and good cheer to the hear
of every Democrat, from the mono
tains to the sea!
Hardwickism in Georgia had grown
to be a dangerous canker in the very
body politic of the commonwealth; il
is attested in so many different way
that to enumerate them, would be r
waste of time. They were here; they
have been here for many moons, as a
natural lgacy of the Watson vote and
the Watson power, now gone and wf
hope gone ferever!
In the primary of Tuesday, the
nomination of Judge George was file
plain, enthusiastic, emphatic, voice of
the great Democracy, speaking for the
first time in years, of its own free
will and answering no dictates but
that cf conscience and of God!
It gave to file man, young in years
well grounded in the law, of fin.? m
tegrity and character and with :>
splendid business training, who will
bring to bis service in (he senate, ai'
of the material, from which rea’
statesmen are made. We predict
here and now that in a few years
Georgia will hav e reason to be proud
of Walter F. Go rge and the record lv
will have made in the most delibera
tive law-making bedy on th e face o
the earth.
The day will go into Georgia his
tc.ry as anew era for the state; i!
comes as a harbinger of a broade
land a move, wholesome politics
thought and better yet, it shows tha
the so-called Watson vote, if left alone
will seek the higher and the bet tec
ideals and will soon take its old place
in the rank and file of the Georgia
Democracy*
It was a happy day for Georgia!
WHY NOT BE PLAIN WITH THEM
The Hearst newspapers have beer
among those contending that thi
country shall exercise the right o
self government and cease, to tab
orders from Great Britain. We ai
surprised to sc3 in the Hearst papers
and from the pen of Arthur Brisbane,
this paragraph:
“Europe is excited now about
our law that will not allow wine
on foreign ships coming to this
country. It is anew idea for us
to make laws saying what the
Frenchmen and Englishmen may
have to drink on their own -ships.
“Wc probably should he ind g
nant if France passed a law forbid
ding our ships to bring ice wat
er or bu kwheat cakes into her
ports. The threat that Ameri
ca will seize the French or Ita
ian ships for carrying wine .and
British ships for carrying ale
sounds childish. However, if our
ships carry only water and others
carry wine, our ships wont carry
passengers. We don’t feel like
making that sacrfice to prohib
* ition. A difficult situation.”
j If France had a law against ship
I carrying buckwheat into her ports
I and her own ships were being r
iquired to observe the law, would th
i Washington government insist tha
jour ships have a right to keep bud
wheat cakes on board, and would w
! raise a bowl about it? Harn'ffiffiffifi
j or (England or Japan (he right to cor-
Itrol and police their ports?
J There was a great deal said am
j during the war about, this nation sic
imitting to all kind of indignities fran
j England. Our ships were held up
| American mail was opened, cargoe
| were seized —and all of this on th
I high seas. Now will England insis
i that she has a right to overrule tl'
laws of the United States and liav
| her ships violate American law
j while in American ports? And do th
I Hearst papers endorse it? If sc
i why should they longer protec
! against British interference in Atner'
i can affairs? Why, indeed, should w
keep up an independend governnien
at Washington? Why not make Lor
don the capital?
One thing about those who are (
the liquor side, is that they do n>
! let anything come beteu them and (1
i defense of the liquor business. The;
seem to have no policies, no religion
and no patriotism that is as strong a.
•ir friendship for whiskey,
j If the question had ever been rais
ed, and it need not have been raised
the American people would have care
very little and would have been hu:
; very little by vessels in port violatin'
prohibition laws. Since it has bee
; raised, and raised by one main be?
j manufacturer of thc country, there
is nothing for the government to d
hut enforce the law.

tions.
KEEP THINGS BALANCED!
What could we do without the op
timist, those cheerful and cheering in
dividuals who always see something
good in every circumstance and are
prepared to point out a favorable re
action from every apparent evil? Such
a one is John Oakwood, who writes
in Fcrbes Magazine that the strike
that slowed down American industry
really did not cause lost tim.e be
cause America as getting too fai
ahead of the rest of the world in busi
ness expansion and needed somethin?
to put on the brakes.
Answering the question, “Is Ameri
ca on the threshold ofa new inflation?'
Mr. Oakwood says:
“The expansion of business in thi
United States since the first of the
year has been so rapid as to rais e th
question as to whether it was going
too fast for the future good of the
country—particularly as to whethe-
Ihe rest cf the world was ready fo
o much prosperity in America.
Since the first of the year there
has been a market increase of com
uiercial and industrial activity jn the
United States, reflected in rising pric
-s and expansion of credit and Federa
Reserve currency. Th-’s development
of activity has bean retarded by th:
coal end rail strikes.
Accompanying the expansions in dt
i.business there has been an ex
pansion in {he evident a’-Hitv of tin
world to buy and sell from and to thc
United States, coupled with the abili
tv to command a large volume o<
credit here; as tc Europe in partieula
here has also been a strengthehing
if her position to do business with
he United States, and also command
• considerable volume of credit here
As to the future, there is gord evi
hence that world condtions justify th
xpansion of a rising volume of sound
uisiness activity and prosperity foi
the United States, but halting busi
less in several of the nations of Eu
ope and unsatisfactory credit con
ditions in them serve warning agains.
any expectation of a boom.
Therefore, business expansion in
he United States since the first cf th
’ear has perhaps bee’ll a bit to far
lYr th? v,orid, and the industrial ai
connnercial slowing up caused by tl
trikes may not all be lost time, bu

That’s a good way to lock at if. a:
not illogicat at that.

HiS BACK AGAINST THE WALL
The enemies of Llcyd Georgy ha"'
leen pelting him severely in the hue
-hile h r has been carrying oil the
Mftieult campaign against the Turk;
nd standing almost single handed j
-rotest against their return to Europe
George made a speech in Munches
er the other day that reveberatec
nr-.und the world. After deelarlh;
he purpose of the latest British pol :
y m N -ar i act was to pr?s wo i
eedom of th r Bosphorus and Darda
•elles, preventing war between th;
ireeks and Turks from spreading to
iui’ope, and to prevent a-. epetitioi
nstantir pie and Thrace of the u:
itterabh horrors of Asia Minor, un
ifter further declaring that the Turk;
since 1914 have slain a million and c
ialf Armenians and a half millic;
ireeks lie dramatically stated “a
have a sword in my hand and God
fives nip strength to use it, I will.”
The Premier frankly charged tier
'ranee had deserted Great Britain in
he crisis. He said the French at first
ent a message declaring that the al
ies would resist, with force, if necea
ary, attempts of the Turks to cress
the straits.
“Now we know,” he said, “that th.
tessage of the French as only intend

“When the Turks advanced toward

olio wed closely on their heels. Sue
itise we would have followed then
meekly? The Turks would have been

“A weak Senegaies battallion half!
Gallipolj and were ordered net to fire
in the Turks.
“Both sides of the straits ould hav.
been in the hands of Kemal.”
He stated it as not merely threats

The Savannah News very adriotly
■uts this way, on the hack page, in its
ssue of yesterday morning; "Hard
wick gets 2,700 out of 4,517 votes poii

'Cnglish- means that Governor Hard
wick carried Chatham by 971 votes
In face, he received a larger majority

state. If might be well to keep the
ecord right!

GOOD MORNING
A sweep and a linker in a small
country town bad c,. rreiled.i
• Strangely enough, they had exact
ly thc same names. One morning
j tin local paper contained the fol-;
lowing announcement:
‘.:i consequence of frequent and
irritating mistakes, John Jones,!
t'. Laker, begs to announce that
ht is not fhe same person hs John
Jones, the sweep, and that he has
no conection with the latter.”
But iie was more irritated 4
ever when he read the sweep’s re
ply, Which appeared in the next
copy of the paper:
“John Jones, the sweep, who was
declared yesterday to Le a different
person from, and to be in no way
connnected with, John ..ones, the
baker, wishes to be known in fu
ture as ‘Lucky John Jones.’ ”
