A TIP FOR GEORGIA DRYS.

The fact that Illinois has somewhat
reversed its former action with regard
to prohibition, the vets capturing
many of the towns and cities that have
heretofore gone dry, may be taken as
an indication of a subsistence in the
prohibition sentiment of the country.
In fact there seems to be a consider
able ebbing of the enthusiasm that
was predicted would sweep the entire
country into the dry column. before
many years. Here in Georgia it can
be safely said there is a far less viru-
lent prohibition spirit than there was
three years ago. The usual. reaction
that follows sumptuary legislation has
set in throughout the country and the
pendulum is quite apt to swing toward
the vets for some time to come. There
will be no return to old conditions in
full, though. That can be safely as
serted. The prohibition movement has
accomplished much in awakening the
country to a sense of the evils result
ing from the old saloon system, and
has given to that curse blow from
which it will never recover. The brew
ers and the distillers themselves re-
alize this and are to-day among the
most active forces in seeking to rehab-
ilitate the retail liquor trade and get it
on more decent plane than it has oc-
cupied in past years.
There is this to be said as to the
situation in Georgia. There is hardly
a town of any Importance where one
cannot get all the beer he wishes to
drink, get it openly and without trou-
BILE. The sale of whiskey, whenever
It occurs, is generally covered up as
much as possible. The local author
tiles have apparently, as a rule,
reached the conclusion that it is not
possible to stop the sale of beer and
have confined their energies to keep
ing more intoxicating liquors in the
background. Perhaps they are wise in
this. They realize the sentiment of
the people with whom they have to
deal and appreciate that it is not an
act of wisdom to endeavor to do too
much, or to seek to accomplish the
impossible. 1t might be well for the
cause of temperance If a proper rec
ognition were taken of the facts as
they exist and the sale of beer legal
lied with the prohibition as to other
liquors made even more stringent,

sus as second-ciass mail matter.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1910-04-08

through more severe penalties. The
sale OF beer is going on openly every
where, anyway, and is apt to continue
to do SO. Efforts to suppress it would
be certain to arouse and erystalize a
strong anti-prohibition sentiment and
perhaps lead TO reversal Of former
judgments, as in some other states.
In any event, it would probably be an
act Of folly TO attempt any Iegisla-
ton that would make more stringent
the existing regulations. It would
probably not be a difficult matter to
provoke q decided change Of sentiment
in Georgia if the law and its enforce
ment became any more drastic than
now.

THE ACCUNULATING BURDENS OF
WAR.

The great debts under which the ma
tons Of the world are staggering to-
day, aggregating many billions Of dol
lars and consuming a great proportion
Of the taxes wrung from the people,
are mainly the result Of past wars.
Some Of the Indebtedness represents
works of Improvements, but this is a
minor part Of the liabilities. Wars
have not only devastated countries,
robbed them of their sons by the
hundreds Of thousands, wiped out the
accumulated wealth OF the past, but
have also left TO posterity a burden
that presses soreIy upon the backs Of
the present, as it viii upon the shout
ders Of future generations.
Wars, past and prospective, have
created an accumulated Indebtedness
that the world can never pay. And
yet the piling upon the mountains
of the past Of new peaks continues.
Every year sees untold millions Of
new Obligations added to those that
have come down from former genera
tons Talk Of disarmament brings no
relief, and it is evident from the re-
ports Of economists that the strain.
especially upon European countries, is
rapidly approaching the breaking
point.
The political conditions in England
today are largely said to be the re-
suit of the Napoleonic wars, wars that
ceased nearly a century ago. A writer
in the Review of Reviews, discussing
the fiscal complications in that coun-
try, points out this fact in the follow
ing interesting manner:
The struggle with the French was
easily the costHest of all modern wars.
Upon it Great Britain expended the
sum Of 891, 100000 pounds (s4,157, 50O,-
| 000), very much more than the aggre-
gate outlay of the nation upon all
other wars in which it has had part
since the times Of oliver Cromwell.
! The consequence was threefold In
THE first place, the national debt, which
/ in 1892 stood at 237OO0,OO0 pounds
was augmented by upward of 622,000,-
/ 600 pounds. In the second place there
was a great leap upward on the part
of ordinary, recurring expenditures
After 1875 the army and navy called
for an outlay of from three to four
times the amounts allocated to these
services in Pitts frugal budgets prior
to the war, while the annual interest
charge upon the debt had come to be
no less than 32,000,0 900 pounds, or up
ward of twice the total public expend-
iiture for all purposes in 1892. A
third consequence f the war outlay
was the piIing up Of taxation beyond
+ all precedent, so that a yield Of 49,
4 $50. 900 pounds in 1892 had been raised
by 1915, to 74,500 900 pounds And al
though after the restoration Of peace
there was some remission of taxation
so that by 1918 the yield had been re-
duced to 59,5OO,0OO, far the larger part
Of the burden imposed by the costs oil
the French wars has been carried by
the taxpayers of the realm from that
day to this But for interest charges
imposed by Camperdown and Trafal-
gar and Waterloo, Mr. Lloyd George
would have had ample means a year
ago for the paying Of pensions to the
aged and the building of new dread
nougnts without the necessity of adj
Iditional taxations at all

A Southern Girl.

Her boots are slim and neat

She amuLates her rs
But her eyes are Ike the stars
Overhead.
It's a matter Of regret,
She's bit of a coqueCte.

On her cruel path she goes
With half-a-dozen beaux
To her string.
The singing OF sweet Phyllis
Like the silver laughing rill is,
And her breath is like the lily's,
In the dawn.
As graceful as the dipping
Summer swallow, or the skipping
Of a lambkin, is her tripping
Ger the lawn.
Beyond a poets fancies,
Though the muse has kissed hel

Is her dimple when it dances
In a smile.
Oh, the havoc il is making
Days Of sorrow, n gifts OF waking
Half score of hearts are aching
All the while.

German Woman Had Never Lighted
One and Was Asphyxlated While
Trying to Turn 1t.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 1S.-Mrs. Theresa
laser, eighty-seven years old, was
killed by gas asphyxiation at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Mary
Mitchell, 1888 Hermann avenue, while
dressing to attend her first service
at the new st. Anthony's Catholic
church, dedicated Sunday. She came
to America three months ago from
Germany and had never lighted the
gas Jet in her room, according to her
daughter. She arose at 3 a. m., and
two hours later her daughter was
awakened by the. odor of gas. A ply
sician was called, but Mrs. Jaser died
an hour later, without regaining con-
sciousness. She was partly dressed
and the presence of several burnt
matches in the room causes the
daughter to believe that her mother
was overcome while trying to light
the gas after she had turned the cock.

and ceremony, he was buried, with all
of the Armenians, Macedonians and

funeral, for after his death the ident-

Army.
During revolts in Armenia against
Turkish rule he led losing cause,
and escaped from the country to
avoid capture and probable execution,
though held hero by his people. Com
ing to New York, he became director

SETH BULLOCK
rs RE-APPOINTED
other Four-Year Term by
President Taft.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S. - Capt
Seth Bullock, of Deadwood, S. D., hero
OF the plains and intimate friend OF
Colonel Roosevelt, was renominated
for another four-year term as United
States marshal for the district of
South Dakota The fact that the
South Dakota senator's, Gamble and
Crawford, were opposed to the ap-
pointment of Captain Bullock had no
weight with the president. Some
months ago Mr.. Taft promised Col
onel Roosevelt that If his cid friend
Seth wanted to hold his job as mar
shall that he would be recommis.
stoned.
The South Dakota senators opposed
Mr.. Bullock on the. ground that the
marshal might be opposed to Senator
Gamble when he came UP for re-elec
ton three years hence. Bullock was
asked to take the oath of allegiance
to Gamble, but he refused to be
sworn and would not make any prom
ises as to what he would do in poll
tics three years from now. His nomi
nation may be held UP by the South
Dakota senators. but ultimately it viii

THE NEW STOVAINE
CAUSES DEATH
Chicago Hospital Case Causes the
Surgeons to Put Ban on
the Discovery.

CHICAGO, Jan. 18-When Coron-
er's Physician Warren H. Hunter at
tributed the death of John Roherty,
which occurred at the county hospital
last Thursday, to stovaine, he lNt an
end to the use of this anaesthetic in
Chicago hospitals for an indefinite
period, in the opinion of DR.. Henry F
Lewis, who used stovaine when he
set Roherty's fractured kneecap.
"a statement like that, coming
from a reputable physician like DR.
Hunter, and at the same time one
in the high official position which
he occupies, is bound to place a stig
ma upon the drug which will take
some time to overcome" said DR.
Lewis.
DR.. Lewis, as we'll as other promi
nent physicians of Chicago, refused
to go on record yesterday with regart
to agreeing or disagreeing with the
belief of DR.. Hunter But from con
versations with several it wa:
cleaned that stovaine still has it
friends. and as far as could be as
certained, Dr. Hunter stands alone il
his condemnation of the newly dis
covered anaesthetic.
AS prelude to the inquest today
into the death of John Roherty, who
died following an operation in which
istovaine was used at the county LOS
;pital, DR.. E. c. Dudley, a prominen
surgeon, declared it to be fusil oil
DR.. Dudley said that stovaine, in hi.
opinion, will produce mortality o
two per cent, and is more dangerous
than chloroform or ether.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Jan. 1s.-Fif-
teen hundred miners representing coal
districts throughout the United States
met In Tomilson hall at 10 O'Clock
this morning, when the annua' con-
vention of the United Mine Workers
met. The miners were welcomed by
Governor Marshall and Mayor Shank
and President Lewis responded in be-
half of the miners.
The first day of the convention will
be spent in organizing and little i'm
portant business will be transacted 1t
is believed
The credential committee made its
report this afternoon. The appoint
Iment Of committees was also made
I by President Lewis. The tellers who
are now counting the votes for the
national officers will report tommor-
row.
According to statement made by
a miner today, supporters of Lewis
fare expecting opposition from the
friends of John Mitchell.
The better protection of miners
lives will be one of the topics dis
Icussed. The creation of bureau
of mines, either in connection with one
of the departments Of the U. S. gov
lernment or as department in itself
has been advocated by Presiden
4 Lewis for some time and it is though
some action will be taken on th,
matter.
