THE FEARED STRIKE.

The strike was averted, and today
instead of paralyzed business and pos
sible bloodshed, the commerce.
through the railroads is moving with
out interruption.
The great power of President Wood
row Wilson threw virtual panic into
congress, and they proceeded to work
in double-quick time The master
mind of Congressman w. c. Adamson
of the Fourth Georgia district, framed
piece of legislation which averted the
strike-if nothing else.
The law may not be constitutional
that phase will be carefully threshed
out later. In the meantime, the strike
was stopped. 1t remains to be seen
whether the railroads or the en-
ployes won victory, or whether it was
a dog-fall. The strike did not come
and one of the greatest forces which
stopped the impending trouble was a
nationwide sentiment which arose al
most in arms, declaring that the Unit
ed States could not afford to have her
commerce, industry and peace thrown
into bottomless pit into which no
man could see.
By-the-way, congress moved in a
hurry for one time. 1t is very true
they had no time for deliberation or
intelligent discussion. They swallow
ed an antidote carefully prepared.
There's hereafter to this situation
though, and it behooves every good
American citizen to carefully study the
situation so as to be prepared to know
which road he must take if such a
crisis should ever come again.

AUSTRIAN OFFICERi HAVE 4
BIG FAITH IN THE TACTICS

VIENNA, Sept. 4-The Russian of
fensive against the Austro-H Hungarian
troops, is being conducted, according
to Austrian officers returned from the
front, with tactics that hardly have a
precedent in the history of the wars OF
the world.
These tactics are, briefly, to ami
hilate the Austrians by forcing Rus
sian soldiers to advance in their own
artillery fire, drawing the Austrians
from their bomb-and shell-proof
shelters into hand-to-hand combat,
and then moving down both Austrians
and Russians by whitening drum
fire. Great Russian losses, it is claim
ed, are due to this method of war
fare.
The Russian method of attack in
the Bukowina and volhynia, the Aus
TRANS say, consists of artillery prep
aration lasting from "a to 4S hours.
Then come the first Russian infantry
troops, in. from six to fourteen rows,
driven forward by Russian machine
guns and by Cossacks armed with the
dreaded "Nagaikas," or lead-tipped
whips.
AS they advance the Russian artil-
lery fire abates somewhat, but be-
tween it and the Austrian fire, from
40 to so per cent. of the first troops
sometimes reach the trenches. Their
arrival naturally forces the Austrians
to abandon their shelters, and as soon
as they do so the Russian drumfra
begins again.
In both the Bukowina and the Vol
hynia offensives it is estimated tina:
the Russians use up about two mir
lion shells every twonty-four hours
shells of Russian, Japanese and Ame--
lean make, ana thrown from every
calibre of gun, iu' !uding naval pieces,
appareJ tly dismounted from warships.

GERMANS JUST COMPLETED
TEN LARGE ZEPPELINN

COPENHAGEN, September 4-The
Germans, says a report received here,
have just completed and placed in a
huge shed at Dartstadt, ten Zeppelins
of 500 feet in length with a gas capac-
ity of 19O,675 cubic feet In the hull
is provision for machine guns and for
light pieces of ordinance.
The newest zeppelins are said to
have four armor-plated cars, of which
the first is the heaviest. All the cars
are fitted with guns. Armor-plated
gangways connect the cars. The en-
gines indicate 1000 horsepower, and
the speed is 81 miles an hour. These
ships can reach a height of more than
$4,000 feet.

THE SINS OF AN EDITOR.

AS the Editor Sees It." is the title
OF an editorial in the Fitzgerald
Leader-Enterprise this week, and it is
full of genuine truthfulness as it
speaks for the editor. There are many
times when the editor must choose
between the things he must print; the
things he wants to print-and every
thing. The editorial is:
There comes time in the life Of
every editor when it is a genuine re-
lief to be able to confess his sins Of
omissions.
Right now you are preparing to read
things "As the Editor Sees Them" But
you won't. And therein comes our sin
of omission, for by the rule of IAN
eye for an eye and tooth we should
publish as we see.
Every editor commits sins of omis-
sion, but he does so after calm and
mature reflection. A story comes 10
him in all of its sordidness and multi
plicity Of filthy and disgusting details.
He must decide whether to send it
forth to the world, to speak as he
sees and hears" or to enshroud it with
the mantle of human charity for the
sake of the innocent ones who would
be unjustly wounded and Inundated
through its publication. He weighs
both sides, acts as his heart and his
conscience dictates, and is himself the
target of criticism from one side or the
other, regardless of what mis- decision
may be.
If he publishes the story, the limo
cent sufferers and their friends term
him heartless and cruel. If the milk
of human kindness flows in his veins
and he suppresses the story, the scan
dial lovers are onto him in force be.
cause he has not emblazoned a choice
morsel Of gossip to an expectant
world.
We can recall instances wherein we
have committed the sin of omission
and the culprit has staggered around
and conveyed the impression that we
were afraid to tell the truth, when as
matter of fact, we considered only
those who would be unjustly dragged
down with them in their degradation.
But the most pitiful object on earth

Appeals.

in which Colonel Jones is held, it is
