THE PASSING 0F THE OLD
 0ouTH.

A letter from Georgia, published re- gently. points out the real problem Of the South today. It calls attention to what the farmers and the states are doing to improve the product and in crease the output, and tells of the les sons given to boys. and the work of agricultural colleges for adults.
 Says the writer: "The entire South has awakened to the question of in tensive farming. Money. brains and energy are being literally given to fos- ter a higher development offarming. The slogan of the farmer Is. not more acres. hut more cotton and corn an acre.
 And this "Flnis'' is written to the page that holds the history of the old South. the land of big plantations. Soon that period will be remembered only as a literary and historical pe- riod. The sunny land of the mocking bird and the oriole is developing into the finest farm country. as we'll as the finest manufacturing section of these United States.-Ex.

cHlNEsE POOR soLoIERs.

The China man is Q poor soldier Not that he is lacking in courage. for on occasion he cheerfully sells himself as substitute and goes willingly to the executioner's nx In order to provide his parents with the small sum neces- sary to support them through life. The strength of m army Is in teamwork, and here Is where he fails on account of his aversion to being ordered. This Is found in hls domestic and industrial work. A general line of policy or de
 sired results can be laid down. and he will faithfully work in accordance herewith. but he dislilxes to be fol- lowed up through the details of the work with frequent orders. He will produce excellent results-but they must be accomplished in his own way Hence the essence of good militar m prompt and unquestioned obedience comes in direct conflict with h;, na- tnre. and makes him a poor soldier. However. this trait is not en.ireiy wanting in other nationalities, as every business man knows to his sor- row. and the difficulty of getting em- ployes to do thing in the prescribed way is one of the constant anxieties.

NOME, ALASKA, NOV. 2,, 1912.
THAT ROAD TAX.

Compelling poor prospectors and working miners to. pay eight dollars for road tax in Alaska seems to be one of the most absurd and useless acts of extortion that man could think of. It Is found by the report oi the road overseer for this district that 2ss individuals. most of whom are men who literally live by the sweat of their brows. were compelled by law to fork out money for the building of roads for the government of a coun- try that Is the richest on earth.
 Why, if we heard of such law existing in China or Turkey we should put it down to the lack of civilization ar to the degree of slavery to which the poor of those nations have sunk.
 But. here In Alaska where the wage worker has made it possible by hls industry to add millions upon millions to the wealth of tho nation he iS thanked by being held up for the money which comes to him through tolls and hardships which the men who imposed the tax could never have known or they would never have pass ed the law.
 It hardly seems fair that n poor devil who has been unable to obtain work for himself, and who may be suffering the bangs of hunger at the very time. can he forced out like e Siberian convict to go to work for nothing or go to Jail-for nothing.
 Surely if the conditions here had been brought before congress in their proper colors such & tax would never have been imposed. and. when impos- ed, would never have been allowed to remain on the statute hooks. The fact that workingmen pay taxes just as well as anyone else. although indirect ly. should not be forgotten. The taxes paid by others are taken into account when prices are being arranged for consumers. and workingmen are con-
 
 tell you that the amount of work done by men for road tax is not worth both- ering with. Such men feel that they are being treated unjustly and men. naturally. will not labor hard for noth. ing. Therefore the system of making men labor at building roads for noth- ing Is all but useless as well as wrong. The inutility of the tax Is also shown by the comparatively small number that pay. It's evil is seen by the lies 1t causes when the man from whom 1t Is demanded sees n chance ot avoiding 1t by telling untruths.
 If the new legislature can do any thing towards having this tax abolish- ed 1t probably will. If 1t did that and nothing elsa 1t would have. anyhow. one thing to be proud of.

THE FATE OF NATIONS.

After centuries of conquest and cen- turtles of decline Turkey is about to fade from the map of Europe. After centuries of subjection or weakness Greece seems to be about to rise again to . place of power as one of the states of great empire.
 Every nation in Europe has It's day and its night like individuals. Like individuals again they seem to fade with age. but, unlike men. many of them seem to possess the power of re- invigoration.
 Only short time ago Turkey gave indications of leaving the rut in which it had travelled 50 long. The young Turkish party strove to bring about modern conditions of government and

WHERE WEARY srRAP HANGERS
 RIDE HALF.FARE.

With a fellow feeling New Workers may have read of the troubles m For'- ,.,a Ore. over the street car con- 1astion in rush hours. Having be- s.owed their sympathy let them fur- tber view with envy the recent action of the Portland city council prohibit ,nr more than half fare unless a seat is available.
 up to a few days ago the cry was more cars in rush hours" One man aaId he had been able to obtain seat only six times in ten years. while multitudes declared they had not known the luxury of sitting in street car for a twelvemonth.
 In short order the council remedied this. The measure allowing strap hangers to ride for half fare also pro- vides that the company must sell hooks of 100 tickets for two dollars and a half. these tickets to be good for standing room on any car where the seats are occupied. The passen- ger having given to the conductor one of these tickets Is entitled to take the next available seat by passing in "n- other.
 Our public service commission would be doing a real public service If 1t would enforce some such measure as this for the benefit of the strap hang inR millions who pay the railway mon- opolists such enormous dividends on their watered atock.-Ex.
