Those who complain that the city al

mind that the water plant debt is not
"A debt but an asset. At least that Is
what we were told Il few years ago,
when we were in the hysterical process
of acquiring Il WORKOUT plant, which
today needs two or three hundred thou
sand dollars in the way Of repairs and
Improvements.
But the people are finding out the
difference now. They are paying just
as much for water as they did under
the old system, and at the same time
they are being taxed to pay interest on
the plant and for repairs. The city
used to receive taxes on the plant.
Now 1t docs not receive anything *
cept free water for the city hall and a
few other city institutions. There are
also several thousand people who are
helping to pay interest and repairs and
purchase price IN q plant from which
they do not receive any benefits at all
since the water is not brought TO them.
They used to tell us IN large letters
that the plant was not only able 10 pay
for itself out of its earnings. but the
surplus could be used to build city
halls and bridges and beautify the city
until it should resemble a modern para
disc.
All these dreams are now jokes. We
are up against the real facts. and the
management of the water plant has
not been such as to make any of them
realizatlons as yet, and there is no
promise that they will be realized In
the future. But these things should
. not discourage us. We should regard
the water plant debt as an asset, not n

NO CHANGE IN PRIMARY PLAN

No change in the method Of hold
ing the state primary was made by
the Democratic Executive Committee
at its meeting in Atlanta Friday The
majority vote plan adopted at the
last state convention was not tam
pered with, nor was the date o f the
primary changed from June 4. 1t
had been rumored that these two sub
jects would be up and that changes
in each might be made.
Had the notifications suggested
been made, it would have provoked
storm of discussion over the state
and would have no doubt have fur
Their embittered the gubernatorial
contest. While it would likely be
to the benefit of Gov. Smith to have
the county plan, yet to attempt to
change for such a palpable reason
might have lost him more than he
would have gained. The same objec-
lions would apply to any postpon-
ment in the date of the primary.
A little more than a month now
remains until the voting. The inter
val will no doubt be improved indus
triously by both candidates. For
the people it will be a relief to have
the question of a Governor disposed
of. Prolonged political discussion
does not conduce to good temper.
The state committee is to be com
mended for it's refusal to NEEDLE with
either the popular vote plan or the
primary date.

A TRICK IN BUTTONS

In the matter Of pinning Joe Brown
buttons on negroes Smith supporters
are hitting below the belt, and TAX
ing a course which will react as
soon as the facts are known.
A prominent Americas man states
that two days ago he was at Cordele
when he saw two Hoke Smith sup
porters give Brown buttons to ne
groes. He demonstrated with the men
for the act, but without effect.
This practice of procuring Brown
buttons and giving them to negroes
seems to be in vogue at many points.
We feel sure that the practice is dis
approved by the majority of the
Smith supporters, and they should
condemn an unworthy trick.
On this subject Mr.. Brown has
given out the following statement:
Il also notice that Governor Smith
in his speech at Columbus and at
Macon, makes the charge that negroes
are wearing Joe Brown buttons, in
sinuating that they are being fur
nished by my friends and supporters.
In reply to this charge, l wish to
say that reports frequently come to
me that the friends of Mr. Smith
are procuring and giving away but
tons to negroes for the sole purpose
of supporting his mode and method of
campaigning. All dignified and fair
minded Georgians will understand
this.
81 cannot afford to take further no.

the charge is a SANDER that i'll be-

way rates were the exception among
countless advancing prices. If there
is anything which has been more
consistently cheapened to the con
sumner during a term of years it has
escaped attention.
There is nothing in the proposed
advance to make an outrage of
from the buyers point of view, and
the shippe rwOuld be only too glad
to find a market for his goods if the
advanced rate would quicken the
currents of trade. Doubtless the
lower rates would be preferred. But
even shippers are not entitled to
have their goods carried below cost,
and it is demOnstratable that re
Gently freight rates have been below
the cost of the service. American
transportation rates are less than
one-half the rates upon the Govern
ment railways of Germany. They are
a trife more than One-third the

Government, private and mixed. They
are slightly in excess Of one-fourth
of the English rates, which, it must
be admitted, give a better service,
somewhat in proportion to the larger
cost. 1t is true that these larger
costs of freight service abroad do
not prove that our rates are below
cost here-that proof is unnecessary

vestment in receiverships-bu the
comparison is made to show that
there is room for considerable adj
vance before an unreasonable level is
reached
