It's all right to talk prosperity
and to be optimistic, but down.
right lying will not help any
cause. AS a matter of plain,
unvarnished truth business con-
ditions in the south now are by
no means as good as they have
been in times past nor as good
as they will be in the near flu
ture. Unless all signs fail the
greatest prosperity this nation
has evei experienced is just
ahead, and every man should be
on the alert to share in it. Right
now it is foolish to assert that
times are good and money plen-
tiful, but the prospects for i'm
provement are splendid. But if
a man is hungry to-day you
you can't convince him that he
isn't, even if he knows he will
have plenty to eat next week.

Its all right to send money to
Belgium if you can spare it, but
real charity begins at home. We
have in mind a rich bully who
sent fifty dollars to the Belgian
sufferers who has in his employ a
poor widow with children to sup
port and educate and he pays her
less than five dollars the week
for twelve to sixteen hours ex-
cellent work each day, work that
frequently profits her employer
twenty dollars a day. The money
this man sent to the Belgians
belonged to that good woman and
we seriously doubt that this fell
low is going to square himself
with St. Peter by sending a con-
tribution, which justly belonged
to a widow, across the seas.

Some papers in the state are
laboring under the impression
that nearly everybody in Henry

imagine they are making fun of

true that a number Of good Dem
ocrats in Henry would like to
serve their country, yet there are
many counties which far out
strip and outshout old Henry in
the clamor for official pie. We
apprehend that the coarse jibes
flung at Henry are meant to in
timidate Gov. Rye, but it is the
presumption that he isn't easily
scared. He will doubtless do the

the intelligence nor the backbone
