Comptroller General Wright has
a level head. He is man Of lore
thought and prudence. Witness
the advice that be gives the people
Of the state. especially the mem-
bers Of the legislature, in the an-
nual report just issued by his de-
partment. Comptroller Wright
warns the Legislators against max
ing any special appropriations this
year.
The reason is clear The Comp
troller himself gives the basis Of
his advice when he says that the
general depression that has been
caused by the war in Europe is
very likely to have rather mark
ed effect upon the amount OF taxes
that the state will collect the next
two wears. He indicates very clear
" that he expects decrease in the
amount of the taxes collected, con-
sequently the wise thing to do is tc
practice economy in regard to APP
preparations, to adhere to the ex-
penditure already outlined or even
to reduce it if possible.
1t is a very logical and sensible
conclusion which Comptrollei
Wright has reached IN his consid'
Grafton Of the matter. Even the
most irrepressible optimist vii
hardly admit that people are golng
to return their taxes to as great ar
amount this year as they have beer
doing for several years previously
It would not be natural to expec
it. In fact. it is very natural t
assume that the value Of property
has been depressed considerable
nearly everywhere and that thos'
who return their property at low
er valuation are doing only what il
right and sensible. Let the legisla
tors, therefore, heed this word Q
warning. A little economy vii
prove unusually good for the stat
this year.

Copious rains over the greater
portion Of South Georgia during
the month Of May have greatly Inn
proved conditions. and exception
the fact that late cold and short
age Of rain in April resulted in
minor damage, the whole planting
and early-Growing season has been
one OF the best in years. The dry
weeks Of April stunned the oat crop
in some localities, bat rains came
in time to save most Of the fields,
and good average yields are re-
ported.
Many Southwest Georgia farmers
planted experimental patches q
wheat last winter, and as indicat-
ing the general success Of agricll-
tural operations this year it is
pointed out that wheat fields have
exceeded the fondest expectations
OF those who planted. Some far
mers are 50 sanguine as to predict
yields of 40 bushels to the acre,
which is far better than average
wheat for this section.
AS for other growing crops, all
may now be said to be in most ex-
cellent condition. Not in many
seasons has there been better
stand Of cotton, and the corn fields
now are areas Of luxurious green
that give early promise Of boun-
teous harvests. Never before in the
history Of this section has as high
Ia percentage Of the total acreage
under cultivation been devoted to
food and forage crops, and
the fact that Ill are now in the
best possible condition is calcuted
to make the farmer face the future
with an equanimity which nothing
can disturb. Albany Herald.

that it understands what is in the

A gigantic shipping combination,
the greatest ever conceived in the
history Of the world, with a capital
Of hundreds Of millions Of dollars,
and With all the Governments Of
South and Central America as well
as that Of the United States as own
err Of the controlling interests, may
Be the outcome Of the Pan-Ameri-
can financial conference recently
held in Washington.
If the United States possessed an
adequate Merchant Marine this
would be enioyingthe most
and far-reaching bust
ness boom that was ever known.
We could sell abroad at least one
hundred million dollars ($100, 000,-
000l per month more than we are
selling (Which is $3.50, 900, 000) if
we had the ships to carry the
goods.
1t is believed that tremendous
merchant marine viii be the result
OF tins conference. South and Cen
trail America want more OF our
goods and we have not the ships
to carry them and neither have
they. Brazil and Argentine have
Just established a merchant marine
between those countries and this,
but it is still inadequate.
President Wilson in addressing
this great conference electrified the
audience when he declared that il
private capital does not provide an
adequate merchant marine and pro-
vide it quickly the United States
Government must. This statement
elected thunderous applause from
the conference. The great empire
Of Germany which could be set on
the state Of Texas and then would
not cover it by fifty-ive thousand
square miles, has by its enormous
merchant marine maintained a pop
ulation Of about seventy million
people.
Great Britain has only one hun
bred and twenty-one thousand
square miles, so it is not half as
large as Texas and it has The larg-
est export trade OF any nation on
earth, larger than either The Unit
ed States or Germany, which is
maintained by her enormous ex-
ports through her merchant ma.
rine, which gives employment to
her 40, 900, 900 inhabitants.
If the capitalists of this country
have not made a healthy start in
this direction before Sept. 1st, it is
being urged that President Wilson
should Immediately call special
session Of Congress in October for
the purpose Of passing a bill auth
orizing the United States Govern
ment to buy, build, and operate a
great merchant marine so that our
food stuff, cotton, manufactured
goods and mineral products can be
shipped to the foreign market
which will thereby disband for tif-
ty years at least our army Of the
unemployed. !"

THE ideal newspaper is the
home newspaper. 1t is a paper
which is sofilled with good thoughts
for every member Of the family
that it finds warm welcome and
and an eager reading everywhere it
goes. It is free from crime and
and scandal and more unwhole-
some things. II takes more pride
in the quality of its circulation
than in the mere quantity. It's
not boastful nor too much given to
finding fault. 1t wins the conf
dence Of the people by its simpli-
city, honesty, purity and pro-
gressiveness. It handles the news
Of today in manner which appeals
to the better class of people and to
the better nature of all people, 1t
emphazes the hopeful natures of the
news rather than the discordant
ones. II has permanent location
for its special features. 1t is an
authority on whatever it under
takes to exploit. 1t regulates its
advertising pages by reasonable re-
ouirements regarding display and
illustration, so that the page repre-
sents a pleasing whole. .
