Shall women enter the austere
precincts of the dignified United
States senate? Shall a bonneted
senator address the chair and have
voice in directing the voice of the
nation? Shall the United States be
a woman-run country? Well, Mrs.
Grimstead has made a start in that
direction. Out in Kansas she has
SHE'D her bonnet in the ring where
there were already the hats of three

We note with interest that Hon.
John D. Walker, of Sparta, is can
didate for the state senate and will
probably have no opposition. Be

splendid ability. Georgia is fortu-
nate when such men consent to serve
in a legislative capacity.

Federal Rate Control.

By a decision handed down few

orders of state commissions con-

The good roads movement has re-
suited in the expenditure of a greater
amount of money on the roads in the
past year than ever before. In 1904
the total sum expended on public
roads in the United States was about
$80,O0O,0O0. In 1913 it was more
than $16O,OOO,OOO. The greatest
problem now is to see that the money
is wisely expended.

situation"
The allies claim to have made slight
progress at some points against tho

tacks there and between Craonne and
Rheims, while they say in tho centro
and on the right tho Germans are act
Ing purely on the defensive, having
dug themselves into irtrenchments."
The German official reports are al
most identical with those of the allies
They say no decision has been reached
but that the allies Lower of rcsis-
tance is Weakening; that French at
tempt to break their right has failed:
that in the centre the Germans arc
gaining ground slowly and that sallies
from Nerdun have been repuised."
1t would seem from all this that the
commanding generals have not set

ents' dispositions and that each is with
