Trouble at Mercer Adjusted.

The trustees of Mercer University
have very wisely settled the trouble
that has been brewing there for some
time. 1t has been known that there
was lack of harmony between Pres
ident Jameson and the presidential
committee Local disputes have
tended to aggravate the misunder-
standing and to widen the breach.
The relations had grown so strained
that it was thought best to ask both
President Jameson and the presiden-
tial committee to resign. They have
complied, and new committee has
been named. 1t is to be hoped that
the trustees will show as much wis
dom in the selection of a new presi-
dent. While Mercer is a denomina-
tional college along liberal lines the
people of Georgia, irrespective of de-
should hope that the old
college will now enter an era of
greater influence.

According to the last census Geor-

cent of these being on farms, Geor,
gia farmers holding bottom place
among states for number of horses
owned by farmers. OF the 5000
horses on Georgia farms, perhaps one
half were mares. The census reports
only 1918 colts On the basis of go
per cent. breeding record, the 1900
mares should have produced 1O,SO6
colts but it will be seen that Georgia
farmers have been very Indifferent
about raising colts when they have
raised only about one-third as many
as they could be expected to raise A
very deplorable state of affairs. Think
of driving through a farming section
and passing SO farms that did not
raise colts before you came to one
that did, this too in face of the fact
that Georgia is paying approximately
$12. 100000 annually for mules.
If one farmer in a given territory
were to raise a colt, ninety-nine of his

Mr.. RooseveIt'S Victory,

People of right thinking every
where should rejoice over the splen-
did moral victory won by ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The press has given
the matter of his damage suit wide
publicity an there is no use rehears-
ing the facts here. The accusation
that Mr.. Roosevelt is a drunkard will
no longer be countenanced The man
who made the accusation admitted
that he was mistaken, and the eX
president forthwith stated that it was
not money that he wanted, but vim
dication. He therefore requested
the court to direct a verdict for nom
inal damages, which was done.
Whether or not this slanderous
report was started in the last presi-
Dental campaign for political reason
has nothing to do with the case.
The work of all slanderers is the
same. They are social nihilists, and
they are far worse than bomb-throw-
ers, in that they seek to destroy what
cannot so easily be replaced.
If the courts will continue to deal
in this manner with the slanderer
an end will be put to his iniquitous
work. 1t is not very pleasant to con-
template that not only ones property
but ones reputation may be blasted
and ruined at any moment by some
irresponsible person who attempts
and fails to run the universe.
The outcome of this affair, there
fore, should bring cheer and comfort
to the good people of our country.

The Lobby Probe,

When President Wilson charged
last week that there was a lobby in
Washington numerous, insidious
and industrious" working to modify
some of the tariff regulations in the
Underwood bill, now before the SEN
ate, he made unavoidable the APP
pointment of a committee of inyesti-
cation. A subcommittee of the judi
ciary committee of the senate was
named to conduct the investigation,
which began Monday and which will
be continued until every senator tes-
tifies under oath as to what he knows
of this lobby and as to a good many
other things besides.
In referring to the activity of the
lobby at the national capitol Pres
ident Wilson made it plain that he
did not charge the existence of cor
ruption, but merely the misreDre-
sentation of facts through persist
ent campaign and a reckless expend-
iture of money. Many senators have
testified on oath before the COM
mittee as to their knowledge OF
lack of knowledge of lobby and thus
far little has been adduced to sub
stantiate the charge of an improper
or illegitimate pressure of a LOBBY
upon the senators. The senators alst
are sworn as to any property hold
ings or business activities they hav
which might be affected by the Tn
derwood tariff bill.
Those in the confidence of tn
president assert that ample evidenc
will eventually be brought out to jul
fifty everything that Mr.. Wilson hs
said. It is intimated that there Wi
be a disclosure of the names of
large number of former congressme
who have been active in solicitir
changes in the Underwood bill.
No matter what may come fro
the investigation in the way Of su
tanning President Wilson's charg'
the publicity being given to the who
matter today will undoubtedly pro
beneficial.
