acter of ane Thomas has a fine acting
part, and John Il. Kellerd as Vance,

some entire crop years of sthe moi
very distant past. The foreign
movement gives good ground for the
belief that, with much reduced
crop in 1916, the price will be re-
stored much more quickly than many
were willing to believe in September
and October past. The South will
get the benefit of decided shock to
its reliance on one great staple, and
that will be good thing for both
the South and the whole country.

THE APPROPRIATIONS

There are two sides to this ques-
tion of Government appropriations in
times when revenue conditions are
dubious. On one side is the very
evident fact that Government, like
any other business, has need to keep
it's expenses somewhere in sight of
it's income. 1t isn't possible to spend
more than the income without max
ing difficulties later.
On the other side, there is the
obligation of the Government to use
its credit so far as it properly can,
to provide employment for people in
times when unemployment is gen.
eral. These two views of Govern
rnent responsibility are utterly at
war with each other. The man who
wants an appropriation is apbto JUS
tify it on the plea that it will keep
somebody employed. The man who
opposes it is very likely, in times
like the present, to point to the deficit
and demand to know who's going to
pay the bills.
Chairman Fitzgerald, of the Ap-
preparations Committee, analyzing
the appropriations of the session
just closed, makes clear that the
deficit, as a result of a wide-open
appropriation policy, is going to be
big and bigger; and he is perfectly
consistent with his long-established
attitude of protest, when he insists
that it is bad business. 1t is bad
business; for there is no concentra-
ton of authority over the business
Of raising and spending money.
Suppose it be the purpose of the
Government to be liberal with ex.
penditures, in hard times, in order to
give employment to people? That is
a. scheme easily enough justified at
least to the satisfaction of the peo-
pie who are going to get the en-
pioyment, and of all who believe the
community can lift itself up into
prosperity by its own bootstraps.
i But if that policy is to be adopted,
there ought to be, in it's execution,
some assurance that it would be con-
sistently followed. There should be
q definite understanding that money
is to be spent literally for those
purposes that will provide work for
the greatest number of people; and
there should be a very accurate as
surance that the revenue will be
raised to pay the bills. There must
be some intelligent relationship be-
tween income and outgo; some GER
tainty that liberal expenses will
really improve conditions, rather
than the danger that they will make
conditions bad.
~ If there is going to be deficit of
$13O,0O0,000 by the end of the fiscal
year, then it can be set down that
the deficit will do more harm to the
national business situation than car
possibly be offset by the added EN-.
-ployment provided through the ex.
eessive expenditures. A deficit is
the beginning of financial woes not
only for the public treasury but
for the whole business fabric of the
nation.
To insure proper balance and re,
tationship between revenue and ex
pense, there is absolute need for cen
tralization of authority; and that i.
to be had through some form OF
budget system. Mr.. Fitzgerald has
long favored this plan; students Of
fiscal problems of the Government
have supported him. Yet nothing is
lOae to effect the reform. A budget

WANTS SOME LYNCHERs HUNG.

Editor Dawson News: THE soul that sinneth
it shall die. Do that which is just, lawful and
right and We shall live, saith the Lord" Judge
Black, of Augusta, has added a distinct note to
Law VS.. Mobs' by placing all mObs in one cate
CORY and pleading for enforced law because of its
necessity to moral health. Recently l have had
three letters-tWO from who stand at the
front of the bar of Georgia, from a man who
occupies the same position at the bar of another
Suthern state the birth-state of both Abraham Lin
coin and Jefferson Davis; also one from Georgia
recently visiting the expOstons in the
West. All speak Of the feeling of fear and of dis
trust that the rape of the penitentiary has
ated. None of them, except one, allude in any
way to the guilt or innocence of the man taken by
force therefrom.
But there is another phase Of this matter that
strikes at the business and material advance
ment of the state, for if mob law has advanced in
the state from the ynching of a negro red-handed
for the rape of a white woman to the lynching
of friendless white boy, who was alleged to have
spoken disrespectfully of woman (but proof
save by another man possibly equally guilty. as
done in the neghborhood where this is
