WHY JAPs COME TO AMERICA

day They are being hired as house
servants in place of negroes. They
are said TO be clean and honest. The
wonder is, why so many of them are
coming TO this country. They bring
no women and children. but are all
able-bodied men. They are the great.
est fighters and most patriotic people
on earth.-Wilson County Journal.
The JaDs are coming to this country
to better their conditions. They have
heard that this is the greatest country
in the world, and they are anxious to
ind out for themselves. A great
many of them, no doubt. are ex.sol.
diers who fought the Russian Bear in
the recent war. But what of itg They
were getting probably 30 cents a dav
in our money for their services in the
japanese army. They will be able 10
earn ~ a day in this country. They
nave Deeh told this. consequently they
are coming here in great numbers.
The South need not be alarmed. The
influx Of the japanese will cause the
negro to stir about lively. He has had

have rival now in the jap. The

are domestic servants. porters in no.

ployers have nothing but words of
praise for them. The Japs are indus

coRRUPTlNe THE BALLOT.

The revelations made in this city
by the court of inquiry held in Justice
Dexter's court are of such startling
character as to almost challenge be-
lief That such a diabolical plot
should be made right here in our
midst to corrupt the ballot and control
the election by crooked means is in
deed worse condition than the Her
aid has ever charged in its long fight
for a clean ballot and fair election.
This-paper has pleaded for a white
mans primary on the suspicion that
the negro vote was being Illegally used
and influenced, but it confesses 1t did
not know the work was being done in
so systematic a way as the testimony
obtained indicates. The story reads
more like the political crimes perpe-
trated in some of the big cities. The

any man who stands charged by in

it will pass judgment that establishes
the guilt or innocence of the parties
charged. But it seems to be a settled
fact that somebody has been guilty of
this work, and when the guilt is es-
tablished the perpetrators should be
given the extreme penalty of the law.
Every law-abiding, liberty loving citi-
zen should demand that this corrupt
practice be at an end in this city. If
it is necessary to send people to Jail

them be sent to Jail. Palestine must
not be further disgraced by such

TO BUILD PUBLIC ROADS.

So favorable has been the consid.
Grafton of the proposal to issue bonds
for improving and building roads in
Cobb county, that It is now confident
ly predicted the coming election pro.
viding for an issue of $4,000 bonds
for this purpose, will carry by a full
and safe vote.
Cobb county has taken hold of the
matter in earnest and preparations
have been made for holding the cleo
ton next Saturday, February 9, which
will determine the question of the
issue of the amount of bonds stated,
at 4 IL per cent, for matchmaking
the county's public roads. In order to
arouse further interest in the plan.
mass meeting of citizens has been
called to be held in the court house
at Marietta on Tuesday. when the
Importance of the good roads move.
ment will be stressed and every pos
sible effort made to get the people to
the polls
But few counties in Georgia have,
up to the present time, given any
thing like adequate attention to their
public roads. AS a rule, in most
counties, working the roads consists
in scraping and leveling on the dirt
surface which is cut into holes again
as soon as a good rain stirs up the
mud. The county with paved roads
is the exception rather than the rule.
Statistics show that the expense
of a long haul on dirt roads is any
where from so to IS per cent greater
thef- lbasGTi-fnater IT'D This
fact, alone, makes IL matter in which
every farmer in every county in the
State is vitality interested. Good roads |
mean money in the pockets of the
farmers; bad roads are a factor in |
their lack of success.
This is a movement which ought |
to appeal to the consideration. and |
the prompt action, of every county |
government in the State.
1t can easily be figured out that
good roads will pay for themselves
before the bond issue which provided
them natures.
Good roads are built for all time.
and with proper attention can be
made to last indefinitely It is emf
nently proper therefore that the fu-
ture generation should bear its pro-
portion of the expenses of the i'm
and that the work should
be done through the medium Of
bond issue.
Let more counties in the State fol
ow the example proposed by Cobb.
Paved roads from one end of the
State to the other will mean the ad.
iition of millions to our annual in
