Proposes Wage Cuts

Sugoestion-WiII Be Declined.

AUGUSTA, Feb. Consideration
has reigned since Jacob Phini2y, for
mer Mayor proposed in a meeting the
other day that the salaries of all city
officials receiving in excess of $1,000
per year be cut 10 per cent. The prop
osition to cut the salaries was occa-
stoned by the financial condition of
the city,
Augusta issued 100000 of bonds
for food protection in 1919, and this
money is about gone and the leyee is
far from complete.
Mr., Phinizy's suggestion was made
at consultation between the Mayor
and members of the Finance Commit
tee TO help solve the problem. The
salary reduction plan has met with
violent opposition on all sides since,
and Mayor Hayne stated the proposal
will be declined

Does Not Control Cash.
The danger Of the Capitalization In
commercial banking is the danger
from the influence and control of a
large part of the cash of the country
by a few individuals. The central
bank in agricultural banking repre-
SCENTS collective credit, not collective
cash. The commercial bank gathers
together, holds and controls the cash
of thu community. and by the control
OF that cash may exercise an undue
influence, The agricultural bank col
lects together the credit Of the com
munity, puts it IN shape, guarantees
IL, and then sells its obligations, rep
resenting this collective credit, TO The

proceeds to the farmer borrower

farmer will see that the arguments
against a central American bank do
not apply to a central agricultural
bank
Under the bill | have introduced,
the local banks can guarantee long
term mortgages TO the extent OF If
teen times their capital ana surplus.
The State bank can then in turn
guarantee these mortgages, each 1f
which has already been guaranteed by
the local bank, to the extent OF 100
times its capital and surplus, Tho
mortgage then goes up to the central
bank, which issues land bank bonds
against the same.
Agricultural banks must be owned
and run by the farmer in order to
succeed and this is what is provided
for in the bill | have introduced.

SEATTLE BUSINESS
 MAN IS ENCOURAGED

William Pigott. president of the Seattle Car & Foundry company and vice-president of the Pacific Coast Steel company, believes President Woodrow Wilson will carry out his antitrust" legislative program. with certain amendments which Congress is likely Co place in the administra. ton bills and that business will be better. He returned last night from an extended business trip to the East, where he made a careful study of conditions. thereby ascertaining. he said this morning. that Seattle's posi- ton is a very happy and fortunate one and that the Pacific Coast is due for a big revival of trade. commerce and industrial development.
 The administration regulative trade and trust bill will be passed, perhaps not as first drawn. and 1t will be well that these matters are finally dispos- ed of now" said Mir. Pigott. Person ally. have determined. after making 6 careful scrutiny of business and business men-the manufacturers and public sentiment in che East, that investors of the country-are not so much afraid of the progressive legis- lator in Republican, in Democratic or in Progressive ranks, as he is in fear Of the professional politician who ad. vocates extreme radicalism and stirs up false issues for the sole and selfish purpose of grabbing an office Seat tie Times.

". J. BRYAN ON THE
 COLOMBIAN AWARD

We believe that thinking people in the United States as n whole deplore inc dispositlon to drag the question of compensation to the republic or Colombia for such losses as 1t sustain ed through the separation of Panama into partizan politics. The belief or conviction that Colombia Is justly en- titled to reparatlon at the hands of her powerful nelghbor is, to say the least, widespread. The fact that Colombia did not, from the Washington view point of the period, exhibit expected or demanded friendliness in the nego- tiations preliminary to the uprising of Panama and the establishment in that province of an independent re. public, has practically no bearing up- on the equities in the proposed scheme of settlement. And 1t cannot be denied that Colombia has suffered great loss both in money and national prestige through acts for which the United States does not wish to shirk direct responsibility.
 Mir. Bryan holds that the proposed payment to Colombia of S25.000,000 will only partly compensate her for the financial loss she has sustained; those who disagree with him, while confessing that something is due, de- cline to say how much. Colombia is prepared to so into a court of arbi- tration for the establishment of her claim. "Our nation," says the Secre- tary of State, "being much the larger nation and having refused to arbitrate, takes upon itself the responsibility of doing justice to Colombia" And he adds forcibly: Not only Is it our duty to do justice to Colombia, but in case of doubt as to what Is just, We must resolve that doubt against ourselves and in favor of Colombia" The sum involved Is large, it is true, but the debt 1t is intended to pay Is great. Be cause 1t is realized by the government at Washington as a debt that cannot be wiped out by money alone, regret is offered as part of the reparation, and this has been hotly denounced as a confession of wrong.doing, as an act Of uncalled-tor national humility.
 We do not feel that this is in any sense a personal or a partizan matter. Rather the government at Washing ton. representative of the people of the United States, must be regarded in this matter as far above all person. ality and partizanship. It cannot af- ford to be less than just, less than generous, or less than frank in it's dealings with Colombia. It does not humiliate, it dignifes itself, by refus. Ing to treat a small nation with less consideration than 1t would grant a great one.-Christian Science Monitor.

DAWSON MAKES
 UNDERSIRABLESWALK

Dawson Is conducting campaign against undesirable residents. Those who are found to be of the ucwanted class who are subject tJ deportation are being "bluetlcketed" out of the country.
 The Dawson News of July 1T says:
 Two of the ten men who were rounded up the first of the week and taken before E. E. Stockton, immi- grafton inspector, on the ground that they were undesirables, have been blueticketed. They were found to be aliens. and, after careful examina. tlon. were told that their presence here no longer was required. They were informed of the time of the departure of the next steamer, and are understood to have taken the track for another country.
 "The others who were up for exami- nation were not all found of the most desirable stripe. but some as- serted they are Canadian citizens, and in that event cannot be deported. They are being watched, and so long as they walk the straight and narrow path are exempt. from arrest on any specific charge, but the police say that while the matter of citizen ship is being looked up carefully, the movements of any under suspicion also are being watched carefully"
 Newspaper Approves.
 Commenting upon the action of the immigration inspector the Dawson News says:
 "The action taken by Immigration Inspector Stockton to rid the city of undesirables is to be commended. He should, and doubtless will, re- ceive the support of all the law-abid- ing citizens of the community. Many business men spoke yesterday in praise of the step. and were em. phatic in the pronouncement that the city i'll can afford to have their ilk sojourning here.
 "The tinhorn and surething gambler and his stripe are a detriment to every line of legitimate business and enterprise of the community. Business houses find that such undesirables get away with the hard.earned cash of wage-earners and that as conse- ouence bills are not paid, and the injury Is felt all along the line.
 "When it becomes known in other cities that Dawson is making short shrift of the sharks. the town will have little more trouble on the old score"

Here tofore there has been one and only one drawback to the cantaloupe game in this section and that was the market. Ii the four companies in competition mean stronger mar ket and the realizing of d fair re- tuln to the growers on their invest ment and their labor then the com petition will be surely welcomed.
 approximately 800 acres have been signed up With four commission firms, each firm signing approxim- stely 200 acres.
 The John Nix company, repre- scented locally by A. B. Harper, is offering a forty cent advance on standard melons
 Weaver X Co, represented locally by Guy Jones, is offering an ad- vance of forty cents on standards and a liberal advance on half jum- bos and ponies.
 Dawson & Co. represented by Johnson X Pearce are offering a very liberal commission and in addi- ton it is understood they will be able to take the melons after they become somewhat riper. This will mean that there will not be such a great waste as is the case when shipment is made to Chicago or oth- CT distributing centers.
