DO WE WORRY TOO MUCHf

Is the South too much alarmed ov-
er the war situation? Our people are
naturally pessimist!c about their crops
and this war emergency has put every
thing In fog of the blues" The
great trouble In the South Is the unex-
pectedness of this new trouble which
i'll it's titanic proper ti0iis and staDoG-
dous sweep has daZed the most daring
financier OF America, caught in their
uRpreparedness.
This Augusta Chronicle carries an
interesting statement from Conyers
Woolsey, "one of the most progressive
planters OF Aiken county" who has
just returned from Europe. He sailed
from England on the 26th of August.
In England he states, business
conditions are not as much
disturbed. although Great Britain
is at war. as they are In the South
ern part Of this country. The
mills and factories are still I'm op-

piASCo VI AOOu pIOuuCtS anu some
excitement, one would hardly re-
alize that Great Britain was lock-
ed in the tremendous war with the
allies against Germany and Aus
tria-Hungary.
1t seems to US that now Is the time
for the United States. Let the wealth
OF the North back up our cotton mills,
let the cotton mills back up the farm
er; and after this crisis is passed, the
whole country will be richer and
stronger But Just es surely az the
North, through any idea of injuring
President Wilson. be Indifferent to the
South In this crisis. just so surely will
the country as q whole suffer from
such a short-sighted policy. The
South may be given set back that
Will require 20 years to overcome, or

In the next two years than she has in

been the achievements within that
