creases and fever and fewer men can be
spared to manufacturing and agricultural
pursuits AS imports fall, customs receipts
will fall with them.
Moreover, the war in Europe has had a
serious effect on business of almost every
kind all over this country Manufacturing
has been hard hit, some of thee railroads
threaten to pass their dividends, banks and
commercial enterprises are not making as
much money as they. made year ago. AS q
result, incomes will be decreased and the in
come tax, expected and devised to supply the
deficiency in customs revenues resulting from
decreased duties, will be Inadequate to ac-
complish this result.
That, under these circumstances, an emer-
gency war tax measure was essential. nobody
can doubt President Wilson and the Demo
cratic leaders shrauk from imposing It on. an
already burdened people, but when they be-
came convinced Of the necessity, when a
deficiency in revenue of over 500, 900 be-
came reasonably evident, they hesitated no
longer.
OF course, the Republican assault on this
measure Of sound sense and wise precaution
was solely POLITICAL in it's inspiration. 1t Ia
doubtful if it was received seriously by the
members of the Republican party themselves.

One Solution of the Cotton ProbIcn

CCREVEN COUNTY, GA, which includes

solving the problem presented by the inability
OF the South to move this years crop Of cot
ton. Screven County merchants and bust
ness men generally are accepting cotton ware
house certificates, on the basis Of cents a
pound for middling, in payment Of debts and
some of the banks also are giving this move
ment their support
In other words they are using cotton GER
tihcates as medium of exchange, just as the
Indian used wampum and we use cash En-
thusjastic supporters of the plan say it is
working perfectly, despite the fact that It
has no positive legal authority, and some Of
the more timid banks and bankers are afraid

They Do Not Rise

a CCORDING to the confident announce
"A ments of the profound Germap~.philos-
ophers, the British colonies and dependencies
would seize the first opportunity of throwing
off the hated British yoke. A great European
war would furnish such an opportunity, and
therefore, Germany was instructed to count
on England being kept SO busy quelling in
ternal troubles that she could not effectively
intervene elsewhere. India and Egypt were
to rise as one man; Ireland was to expel the
hated Sassenach; Canada was to hoist flag
of her own; South Africa was to re-enact the
first Majuba In short. the British empire
was to disintegrate as soon as big European
war was declared.
But these have been proved to be false
prophecies. Ireland has enlisted in the British
both mon and treasure to the empire; Canada
army to the extent that might have been an
ticipated; India Is calm and has provided both
men and treasure to the empire; Canada has
sent something like 10000 men, and is Ore
pairing to send more; South Africa, under the
great Boer soldier, General Botha, is ready to
fight for the King.
Why? Not because the alien subjects of
the British empire have any particular love
for England. Each of the proud Oriental
princes would doubtless prefer himself to be
Emperor of India than to recognize Western
ruler as such; the Beers would probably
rather be Dutch republic than British

ders the Indian princes are monarchs, abso-

which is all that the British government
deems 1t wise to use. In Australia, as in all
the other great sef-governing colonies of
Great Britain, the only evidence Of British
rule is ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, who has 10 power
whatsoever over domestic legislation
Thus there is government by the consent
OF the governed, a principle which 1t took
some time FOR Great, Britain to learn, but
which she has learned to the full. Therefore,
the risings predicted by the German seers
do not take place.

Good Advice to Democrats

JAMES w. GERARD, now the American am
j bassador at Berlin, has been nominated
for the Senate by the Democrats of the State
of New York. At the general election next
month he will be opposed by Republican
and Progressive and perhaps by representa-
tives Of ,some other nondescript political
parties Either Judge Gerard will be chosen
or the Republican.
Secretary of State Bryan urges New York
Democrats, especially those who prefer the
leadership of President Wilson to that Of
Tammany Hall, to support the party nominee
Judge Gerard was opposed in the pri-
maries by Franklin d. Roosevelt, Assistant
Secretary Of the Navy. but Gerard's victory
was overwhelming. Nobody questions his
fitness. The only thing ever said against him
was that he was put forward by the organiza-
ton. Why Mr.. Bryan should not give the
advice he has given or why New York Demo
Gratis should not heed it, would be difficult
certainly to understand.
