WHEN GIRLS SHOULD MARRY.

not live apart from their beloved. The mutual
agreement marriages, and the marriage because
single life is considered disgrace, are gone in
to ancient history. Old maids are not even
bachelor girls any more, they are business wom-
en- Give thought to the unmarried women
many of them are heads of institutions or hold
splendid positions with large firms. No one re-
fers to them as old maids. In fact there are
many men who would like to be where they are.
And their independence is delightfully."- remark
able Women as class or whole, do not suc-
ceed as we'll as men in this generation, but that
is easily accounted for The boy is born into
trade atmosphere AS child he rubs against
more world propositions. Women as bread
winners are new to the world, but in proportion
they are further advanced and more competent
than men. Rather than marry for the sake OF a
home, women should support themselves, for in
nine cases out of ten if no love exists, she will
either have to do it anyway or everlastingly dun
her husband for funds.-Ex.
The above advice may be considered
very good for the girls but what about the rest of
US, what of it's influence on the human race? If
only the sorry, shiftless girls marry, what Will
happen in the next generation? 1t must natur-
ally follow that the children of shiftless women
would be inferior.
The world must have good mothers and
the good girls must marry.

Tom Watson's Jefersonian comes to
this week in its new dress. We like the form,
and some of the editorial matter is fine. We
give below two clippings characteristic in tone,
and which indicate that the Jeffersonian is thor
oughly Democratic;
perkins, the partner of J. Pierpont Nor
gan, has been indicted for forgery.
The Grand Jury which found the True Bill
apologized to the world for indicting such
great big man.
Evidently that particular Grand Jury
would have preferred to prosecute some
negro schoo1-teacher for raising his school
scrip few dollars some poor white
bookkeeper who falsifed his books to hide
theft of enough money to buy his wife
new dress.
The Perkins forgery covered fraudulent :.
transaction of more than three millions of
dollars.
Consequently, the Grand Jury felt very
apologetic.
That's the abiect spirit which has
brought so many of our courts into contempt,
Why not prosecute J. Peirpont Morgan
himself? He is the partner of Perkins.
The forgery was committed in the inter.
est of the firm. The fraudulent entries
we're made upon the books of the firm.
The benefit derived from the crime ac-
crued, in part, not to Perkins, individually,
but to the firm.
Morgan is the head of the firm The law
presumes that he knows what goes on in the
firm. The law presumes that Perkins act
ed by authority of the firm.
Why, then, should Morgan escape prose-
cuton?
Do you understand the meaning of water
ed stock?' If you do not here is an illustra-
ton which will enable you-to understand
what it is.
The Central Railroad Of Georgia was
originally capitalized at 81, 100000.
The Pat Calhoun-San Spencer crowd got
control of the majority of the stock and
slapped Sic, 900, 900 Bond Issue on to it.
The road was Systematically wrecked
and put through the form OF public sale
under order of the Federal Court.
Of course, the gang bought it; then it was
put through the we'll known process of re
organization.,'
In other words it was Morganized.
When J. P. got through juggling with the
stocks and bonds, the Central Railroad was
loaded with capitalization of about SIS, 900,
600. Most Of this was water, that is, the
stock represented no actual outlay of
money.
