There are two classes of workers. One class
works for others, and the others work for them
selves. Those who work for others usually work
others for all there in it. Frequently it is
ly matter of salary.
There are people who will cut the weeds
around their premises and keep their surroundings
in sanitary condition as matter of pride. There
are others who will do to escape the penalty i'm
y posed by law and enforced by local authorities.
There are others who will not for any reason obey
the laws of the land or of decency.

s'Civic righteousness is agood thing and we
read and hear a lot about it these days, but
q the men who pirate and write most aboutit
& don't always possess the virtue to an appre-
cable extent-Waycross Evening Herald.
n 7se Well, suppose they DON'T Perham Is it less
righteous for that reason? You admit it is good
thing, and if the who writes about it effective
y is not possessed of these virtues then that's his
misfortune, not the publics. ''The men who prate
and write' about civic righteousness are better
men than if they devoted the same time to law
leSsneSS and vice.
Editor Pendleton has set himself up as sort
of defender of the faith. The Joe Brown faith,
and is devoting considerable of his time and the
editorial space of the Telegraph to country boys
who refuse to worship at the shrine of his Baal.
Editor Chas d Toney, of the Fairburn News,
has just acknowledged the honor of his attentions.
Our guess is the editor of the Telegraph will
find his hands full if he sticks close to his job.
The nomination of Joe Brown does not mean
that all the people have gone crazy that all the
papers will quietly sanction corporation rule in
Georgia.
The Rambler has always stood for prohibit
ton but we believe that the legislature should
amend the prohibition law so that the farmers
can make wine out of their grapes; Georgia can
be made great grape and wine producing
country and light wine is not dangerous
IS drink-Cordele Rambler.
Editor Shipp does not show sufficient reason
for the suggested amendment to the prohibition
law. Why does he want to see this made great
grape and wine producing country? That's the
question The land that will make grapes and wine
wiz make cotton and clothes, grain and grub, and
the soil has been devoted so long to those useful
crops and the country has propered and progressed
so satisfactorily that we good reason for
making it great grape and wlne-producing coun
try.
We love to agree with Editor ShipnuWhen we |
an. but sometimes we can't, but we kr he will |
