WE ARE INSISTING.

The Times-Recorder is again urging
the people of Americas to join in the
plans for the entertainment of the
Confederate Veterans here on August
Oath and 25th Telephone the ladies OF
the Daughters of Confederacy immed-
lately and say how many veterans you
will entertain in your home.
One week from today the heroes
will be in our city as our guests" We
know they will enjoy themselves.
Americas will open wide her arms with
loving greetings. But, help the plans
along now.
Every prospect points to an attend
ance of between five and eight hundred
veterans, which is one of the largest
state reunions ever held in Georgia.
The Sons of Veterans have done
splendid work on their plans. 1t is the
people generally who must lend their
aid now.

THE FREE PAPERS.

Every newspaper at times is forced
to discuss business with it's patrons in
heart-to-heart way. They are fully
cognizant Of the paper famine, which
Is fast bringing about crisis among
newspapers. They should begin to
realize the many burdens under which
the newspapers are running, and be
willing to cooperate.
The Times Recorder kindly re-
quests its subscribers to look after the
matter of subscription and bring
their accounts into good standing in
every instance. We, together with ev-
cry newspaper, is forced to be thor
ough business like and with very little
sympathy, in hours of business trials.
The New Orleans Times-D Democrat
has the following editorial on free"
papers,
Confronted with news print fam
ire, New Orleans newspaper publish
crs find themselves compelled to enter
into a joint agreement to cut off free
papers of all kinds. If they had not
done so jointly, they would have had
t, do so singly.
In taking this action they are fol-
lowing in the footsteps of papers in
many important cities and showing the
way to others which have not already
acted. Sooner or later every paper,
whether printed in gerat city or an
humble crossroads, will have to do
likewise. Some will not survive the
high prices of news-print already in
effect and which will continue to mount
unless the war ends or very heavy
dent is made in consumption.
No line of business in proportion has
suffered more from the war than that
OF newspaper publishers. 1t is a COM
mon but entirely erroneous belief that
vars contribute to newspaper pros
perity. The public thinks only of the
increased number of papers sold. II
| thinks nothing fthe enormous in
crease of expense which goes with the
publication of a newspaper in war
times. Considered solely from a per-
sonal and selfish standpoint, there
4 isn't publisher in the United States
who wouldn't offer up prayer OF
Thanksgiving if news came tomorrow
that Europe's armies were to lay dowr
their arms.
Not only has the price of paper be
gun to soar but an actual famine is
threatened. The surplus which tht
mills had accumulated either has dis
appeared or in danger of doing so ant
the question now is whether a pub
Usher can get contract for futur,
supply or getting it pay the price.
These being the facts, The States
feels that everyone who heretofore ha
been enjoying free paper by it
courtesy and at its expense will recog
nize that the action of the New Or
leans publishers was without any al
tentative but an arbitrary increase o
circulation or advertising rates o
both and that they have rendered
public service in not deciding upon an
o. these extremes.
An interesting article on the question
of the paper famine is contained i
the Manufacturers Record. The merch
ants are beginning to feel it in thei
purchases of wrapping paper, an
with the newspapers as the larges
consumer, it is a serious situation. TIL
article is:
The price of paper, which has at

NOT so MUCH STRENGTH.

From all the stir which has been
created by the women in furtherance
of their suffrage propaganda especially
as it relates to the two presidential
candidates, one would think that forty
eight states out of the union were in
the control of women voters. But, alas!
and happily so, not true. Charles Ev-
ans Hughes, of the Republican party,
did not turn such a grandstand play
after all, and with the Democratic pol
Icy Of the rights of the states safely
inculcated into the party's platform,
with Woodrow Wilson as the leader
all is safe.
few interesting figures are pre-
sented in an editorial in the Valdosta
Times:
Judging from the amount of noise
that has been made over woman suf-
frage of late, one might imagine that
the women are in charge of affairs
everywhere. AS matter of fact, the
'yotes for women" will have little eff
feet upon the result in different states.
Those states that were democratic
will remain that way and those that
were republican will continue to vote
on that side.
There are but IL suffrage states, and
their electoral vote is a follows:
Arizona, 3; California, 10; Colorado,
6; Idaho 4; Kansas, 10; Montana, 4;
Nevada, 3; RECON, 5; Utah, 4 Wash
intgon, Z; Wyoming, 3. Total, 81.
The suffragists claim Illinois where
only partial suffrage exists, the women
intimidating the legislature into get
ting legislative grant, but being UNI
willing to leave it to a vote of the peo-
PIE.
In these suffrage states the ballot
was given reluctantly, and by small
! majorities, whereas the adverse vote
has usually been large, and when a
record vote is asked the denial being
emphasized.
This year the vote came in Iowa, an6
to the surprise of the woman polite
ians the ballot for women was rejected
by majority of 10,341.
New Jersey, the presidents state
has rejected the ballot for women by
$1,000, and New York, the state of Mr.
Hughes, by over 100000
The adverse vote in Massachusetts,
was over 100000, of Pennsylvania ovei
10000.
In Michigan the proposition failed b!
only 760 in 1912, so 1t was submitted il
1913, when the adverse majority wa'
9G,144.
Missouri rejected the proposition b!
14O,2O6; Nebraska by 10,1O4; Nortl
Dakota by 9,179, most signifcan
vote.
In Ohio in 1912 the adverse majPrit,
was S7,455; in 1914 it was increased t,
1929
! In South Dakota it was 11,914 and II
: Wisconsin it was 91,47S.

more and more as winter swamps the
earth with mud and wet. The pure

the MACHINE war keeps grinding on.
The infantry can't march--but
auto buses shunt the men back and

The trench fighting Is almost
paralyzed-but the airoplanes defy
the elements.
The soldiers can't pass the mud
holes between their lines and the
