THE POVERTY
OF PROSPERITY
From the World Today.

Periodically, we all turn political
economists. Sometimes we discuss
money; sometimes the tariff. Just
now we are discussing the cost of liv-
ing. 1t is not new subject, nor is
it so simple as some seem to think,
for whoever can master it has mas
tered the very heart Of economic
theory and practice.
None the less, every man of us has
some theory to account for the dis
heartening fact that the more we
earn the poorer we grow.
But most of these theories run
back to a simple fact; the rise of the
standards of living. Americans have
been making money so rapidly that
they have spent it even more rapidly.
We have ceased to be thrifty. The
nearest approach most of us make to
that virtue is to get our banks to let
us overdraw our accounts.

THE GRAY MLENDON CASE.

The decision in the case of Nc
Lendon against Gray for the office of
railroad commissioner, and for which
the public waited with considerable
Impotence so long, shows that great
care was taken in it's preparation.
The case grew out of politics. Hon.
Hoke Smith, in his capacity as gov
ernor, having removed Railroad Com
missioner McLendon mainly because
he did not carry out the policies set
forth in the platform on which he
was elected. The court in its decis-
ion, however, did not take notice of
the cause of Mr.. McLendon's removal,
but dealt only with the authority of
the governor to suspend him and of
the legislature to confirm that act.
Mr.. McLendon contended that the
governor had no authority to sus-
pend him, because he had been elect
ed by the people, and that the legis-
lature could remove him only by i'm
parchment; that the new law which
gave the governor the power to sus-
pend had been repealed by subse-
quent laws, and that the law by
which the governor exercised the au-
thority of suspension was violative
of the constitution of the state and
of the United States. According to
the decision of the supreme court
all of these contentious were wrong,
and Governor Smith and the leg
stature acted wholly within their
authority
The decision will undoubtedly be
the subject of a good deal of COM
ment among members of the bar,
since some of the ablest lawyers of
the state were engaged in the case,
and, it is said, so certain were many
of them that McLendon had been re-
moved without legal authority that
four eX-chief justices of the supreme
court volunteered to assist him in re-
is evident, therefore, that the law
yers are divided in opinion as to
the legality of McLendon's dismiss
sal, the majority of them leaning to
the side against which the supreme
court decided.
The decision is doubtless a popu-
lar one with both political factions
in the state. 1t is satisfactory to
Governor Brown, because his APP
pointee (Mr Cray will remain in
office and assures the continued har-
mony of the railroad commission
with his administration; and it must
be satisfactory to Ex-Governor
Smith because it declares in so many
words that he had the right of re-
moval without his reasons being re-
viewed or inquired into.

No funeral bell struck it's blows to
let the people of Brentwood know
that Mr.. H. F. Mcneil died ON the
morning of February %, 1910. But
when the sad intelligence was herald
ed over the town and vicinity we felt
that death had dealt to us, to say
nothing of loved ones, a severe blow,
and the sickle was only used accord
ing to Divine appointment. Yet we
fain would have stayed His hand we
would have waited the shadows to
the dial face and kept back the hour
when Brother Mcneil breathed his
last and his spirit went home to
glory. But no hand could stay the
hour save His who rules the sun.
Yes, indeed and in truth a strong
man has gone from us, and human

forces since he has laid down the

fact, ten more votes were cast in his
favor than he received for Speaker
upon the assembling of congress.
All of which goes to show that
when it comes to doing anything that
would really amount to something
the democrats can not depend upon
help from any of the republicans, no
matter how they may rear and rant
beforehand.

EDUCATION ANG CRIME

We are told by those who are
regarded as eminent sociologists
that all crime is due to ignorance.
The preventative, according to
their expressed belief is education.
Now this statement, at first blush
seems smoewhat broad. We think
we are prepared to combat it simply
by citing a long list of crimes
committed by those who surely
were not ignorant.
In look 'ng about us we are able
to state from our own knowledge,
perhaps that no single profession,
even the higher professions, is
without its representatives in the
criminal classes. This certa My
should be sufficient proof that these
who study crime and its causes have
erred. Why, it even seems at times
that education has prompted crime,
because it has suggested means
and cunning devices by which it
was hoped to hide all proof of guilt.
But right there when we stop to
consider the subject from logical
and true basis, we find the key,
says the Woman's National Daily.
The belief that the one who
plans the preparation of a crime
is cunning enough, intelligent
enough or sufficiently educated if
you will, to cover up his tracks
and avoid detection and punishment,
never has formed the motive for
the commission of the crime. The
Individual attainment may have
suggested the means or process,
but never has it been found to be
the motive. If the desire to kill,
to steal, or to defraud, that desire
will be gratified, no matter how
crude the process employed to carry
the desire into execution. So it
would seem, after all, that what
we call education does not supply
or suggest the motive. The trained
ability along a given line simply
affords an individual means.
But as a matter of fact this
peculiar training which suggests
the means, and which we call edu-
cation, is not education at all.
Education is something broader
than this. The criminal who, out
pf revenge or for greed, kills his
victim by some subtle poison which
battles detection is really as I'M
educated as the savage of the forest.
He who deserts the narrow path to
Encompass the down fall Of the in
pocent is in reality as uneducated
Is the prehistoric man who knew
% limit beyond which his desires
night not go.
And so If we are to deal with
nese problems intelligently and
ffectively, we must not only come
a proper understanding of what
lucation is not, but what it is.
