A rip From the Irish.


A German waiter at New York no
tel had busy time of'it one night re-
Gently trying to serve four Irishmen.
AS soon as anything had been ordered
each Of the four thought of something
else they wanted. They even ordered
their drinks one at time. They
often stopped feasting to watch the
waiter running back and forward
When the dinner was over the host
gave the waiter bill with the num-
ber "5" on it. you have done grand"
he said. 'It was a pleasure to see
you run. We only wish there were
more like you" The waiter took the
bill to the cashier to get it changed.
The cashier looked it over. How'll
you have it? In shamrocks or shilla-
lahs?" he asked, pointing to the in
scription, which read:
1T is hereby certified that the Irish
republic is indebted to the bearer, SIS,
redeemable six months after the ac-
acknowledgement of the independence of
the Irish nation at the treasury of the
Irish republic, March II, 1861"

ON THE JOB.


The New York "World," which
takes pleasure in extoling the many
good traits, public or personal Of Presi-
dent Wilson. has this to say of his de-
termination not to 20 on the stump this fall
while matters Of 50 much moment exist
here and abroad.
We have had Presidents who regard
ed the duties of the Chief Magistracy
as an easy routine. There have been
others who used their position to exploit
themselves by extensive travel, public
shows and incessant speech making.
When asked to appear on the stump
10 behalf Of Democratic candidates this
fall, Mr.. Wilson places his responsible
ties as President above those that attach
to party leadership aud says with refer
ence t the state of the war in Europe:
Every patriotic man ought now to
stay on his job until the crisis is past,
and ought to stay where his job can best
be done.
Staying on the job in this case means
more than an appreciation Of duty and
more than willingness to forego pleas
ure 1t reveals an mistaken confidence
in the intelligence and justice ofthe peo-
pie. The President has made his record
and is willing to abide by it. His party
has made its record and he can see no
reason why 50 much talk should be nee
esslry to convince his countrymen that
with so many achievements to its credit
it should not be cordially endorsed atthe
polls
This is an assumption that the people
Of the United States as well as their rep
resentatives in Washington are on the
job. To stay on tie JOB is wisdom at
all times, but in the present crisis it is a
policy which in private life has been
forced upon millions of anxious business
men, who are in no mood for distracting
sensations or Diversions. In the grim
compulslon that is upon them they will
fnl encouragement in the knowledge
that the administrators of their govern
ment are at their posts, alert laborious
AMI true.
Woodrow Wilson has been on the Job
for peace, on the job for fair taxation,
on the job for honest business, on the
JOB for self respecting industry, on the
job for sound currency aud on the job
for just banking. We believe that
great people who are also on the job will
tike care Of him and also of every men,
Der of Congress, no matter what hi.
party label may be, who has supported
him.

THE WAR TAX.

1t will be interesting to note, We are
sure, what articles will be chosen to bear
the burden of the War Income Tax,
which shortly must be imposed by the
government. The necessity of some
other source Of revenue by the United
States. because of the almost total ces-
sation Of foreign imports, is best rea-
lized by the following news item Of
last Wednesday, dated Washington:
THE receipts from customs during
July and August and up to and includ-
ing August 9th, shows falling off of
nearly s2l, 900, 900, or almost s19, =
600, 900 since August 1st, when the
European war began. Daily receipts
from customs are about half of those for
the same period last year. New York
has taken in the better part of what
money is received. Only s207, 600
was received at that port yesterday
During our war with Spain in 1898,
tax was imposed on all legal papers,
checks, beer, etc, and a considerable
sum was realized. 1t was some time
after the war was over that this tax was
released. There are many propositions
seeking favor now, such as incomes of
$4,000 for single persons, and So, 600
for married ones, in addition to the
regular Income Tax. 1t is suggested
that gasoline be taxed. and also half of
the excess in the price Of wheat over
Sl.00 per bushel, and of rs cents for
corn. Soft drinks could stand Ger
tain portion and automobiles might
stand their share. Grape juice and
other beverages for the abstemious
ought in justice be made to contribute
their portion, just as the alcoholic ones
have always done OF course, beers,
wines and whiskies will take their med
icine in addition to the tax that they
aleeady pay, but certainly there should
be other sources, like for instance,
mining privileges all over the country,
when billions have been taken from
mother earth and little received by the
country for SO great a gift from which
to exact a reasonable amount. Our
Senators and Congressman are face to
face with serious problem and we
trust that they will solve it to the best
interests of all, and they can help ma
terially in this emergency, if they will
scrutinize legislation closely, and in all
their ministrations exercise the most
rigid economy in appropriations and
look to it that all departments of the
government do the same.

"a PROCLAMATION.

Whereas the great nations of the
world have taken up arms against one
another and war now draws millions of
men into battle whom the counsels of
statesmen have not been able to save
from the terrible sacrifice; and
Whereas, in this as in all other
things. it is our privilege and duty TO
seek counsel and succor OF Almighty
God. humbling ourselves before Him.
confessing our weakness and our lack
OF any wisdom equal to these things; and
Whereas it is the especial wish and
longing of the people Of the United
States in prayer and counsel and in all
frlendlinesS, to serve the cause of peace;
therefore,
Il, Woodrow Wilson. President Of
the great United States OF Amer
ica. do hereby designate Sunday, the
fourth day of October next. as day Of
PRAYER and application and do request
all God-fearing persons to repair on that
day to their places of worship, there to
unite their petitions to Almighty God,
that. overruling the counsel of men. set
ting straight the things that they cannot
govern or alter, taking pity on the ma
tions now in the throes of conflict, IN
His megcy and goodness showing a way
where men can seel none. He vouch-
safe His children healing peace again and
restore once more that concord among
men and nations without which there
can be neither happiness nor any
true friendship. nor any whole
some fruit of toll. or thought in the world;
praying also TO this end that He forgive
US our sins, our ignorance Of His holy
will, our wilfulness and manv errors
and lead US in the paths Of obedience TO
places of vision and to thoughts and
counsefs that purge and make wise.
In witness whereof | have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal OF the
United States to be affixed
Done at the City of Washington this
eighth day of September in the year of

OLD WOUND KILLS
POET BILLY DUKE
Ex-PoIiceman Stabbed Over His
Heart Years Ago Succumbs.
Hero in Many Encounters.

Billy" Duke, the old ex- policeman
who has been a familiar figure on
Atlanta's streets several years selling
the story of his adventurous life in a
little book entitled, The Policeman,
His Duties and Dangers" died at his
home, No. 270 Glenn street Wednes-
day. aged SO years.
He went on the police force as w.
c. Duke more than 80 years ago. In
his long career he had many hair
raising adventures. Once he arrested
a desperate negro who showed fight.
The negro cut nine bad gashes in his
body, one of the wounds over his
heart being the ultimate cause of his
death.
He carried a bullet in his leg 10 tho
last as the mark of another raid and
three times he had his right ankle
broken, which finally forced him TO
wear crutches during his last years
Several years ago Officer Duke was
pensioned by Council. Immediately
he set to work to write the story of
his life. setting forth the aim Of the
good police officer to protect the
homes and ives OF the people and
the dangers to his own life, which he
risked. He was also author OF
collection of verse.

The death of Colonel Charles R.
Pendleton has occasioned a vacancy
on the State Democratic Executive
Committee that must be filled by ap-
polntment at the hands of the chair
man, William j. Harris.
The committee. moreover will meet
within the next SIX weeks to pro-
vide for general primary for Gov
ernor and Statehouse officers later
along, ard 1t is necessary that this
vacancy be filed at once in order that
the new member may be on hand
when the committee assemblies to
participate in the deliberations of the
same. The forthcoming meeting of
the committee will be a most impor-
tant one. as there are number of
things that must be settled, upon
which there is considerable division of
opinion.
In the matter of appointing a sue
cessor to Colonel Pendleton there are
some people who keep pretty close
tab on things political in this State
who think il would be both a grace
full and a sensible thing for Chairman
Harris to name Colonel Pat" Gam
brell OF The Macon Telegraph. as
Colonel Pendleton's successor on the
committee, and this suggestion likely
will be made to the chairman.
Mr.. Gambrell was associated for
years with Colonel Pendleton In the
management of The Telegraph, was
very close to the dead man PERSONAL
ly. and might be depended upon to
reflect the Pendleton ideals more
surely than any other man in the
state, perhaps. Besides that, he knows
the political game thoroughly, ana
his advice and counsel in the COM
mittee work would be sound and
carefully considered. To name him
to the unexpired term of Colonel Pen
dleton would be q deserved compli-
ment to Gambrell, a decided advan
tage to the committee, and no doubt
would be the very appointment Colo
mel Pendleton himself would advise
were it possible for him now to make
known his ideas in the matter.
Those who have The idea of Gam
brelrs appointment in mind feel sure
the suggestion will appeal instantly
to Chairman Harris-and it seems
likely, therefore, that he will fall heir
to the dead mans position on the
State Committee. Indeed it is
thought that there will be no further
suggestions made, once this one is
registered with the chairman.
In these more or less parlous times
for the Demon Rum, it is regarded as
rather remarkable when a man in
public life In Georgia ventures to sug-
gest a doubt publicly as to the COM
plete and full efficiency of the pres
ent State wide prohibition law-and
yet now and then one more candid
and outspoken soul undertakes to get
away with It, nevertheless.
Judge H. ID. d. Twiggs. for in
stance, speaking recently in Savan-
nah before the Boosters Club of that
municipality, said
None of the prohibition laws
that have been passed has been
enforced; they never have pro-
hibited, and never will prohibit.

selves as individuals, and not by
boastlng that we are negroes and
talking OF the progress we have made
since emancipation.
we must teach the world that ds
individuals we are a part of the hui
man family, endowed with the same
qualities of manhood. We must
build solid character and get ed

Committee leading the fight for its
enaction, the Senate Committee~-en
Banking and Currency to-day began
hearings on the Owen bill to prohibit
the use of mails, telephone or tele-

bill, which calls for a sweeping reor-
ganization of Wall street methods,
was opposed by a number of repre-

Mr.. Untermyer. the chief witness
in the advocacy of the bill, cited nu
merous court opinions and recon-

which favorably reported a similar
bill in the Sixty second Congress.
