IN RESTRAINT OF TRADE.

Combinations in business work for
good and bad. They work for the best
interest of the community when they
reduce the cost to the consumer be-
cause of systematic and combined
costs and sales. They are menaces
when the combinations are in restraint
Of trade and work as a trust to boost
their prices regardless of cost and
demand
The Atlanta Constitution has been
q leader in the fight against the case
line trust, which had been prominent
il Atlanta recently through an met
dent with a retail dealer The Constl-
tuition significantly asks: Have
these wholesale producing companie:
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1916-09-21

the right under the law to penalize a
retailer because he fixes the retail
price to suit himself, or is there SUI
ficent law to prohibit combinations in
restraint of trade which this action
undoubtedly is?"
Several months ago Americas ex-
perienced the same sensation as At
lanta in the gasoline business. A re-
taller cut his price one cent below
the prevailing market price in this
city, and he was promptly advised that
no more gasoline would be sold him
by either of the three companies rep
resented here, until he came back to
the standard price If the retail mer-
chant can buy gasoline-and make
profit to satisfy himself, what bust
ness has the gasoline manufacturers
to say what shall be the retail price.
1t is a trust, and not of the good kind
but one in restraint of trade, and
according to our belief such practice
is contrary to law.
There are other features in business
which are similar. The trust can be
but it can not be busted
That has been proven.
The gasoline trust has not been
nor "busted"-not touched
and only the newspapers have coll
umns.
Atlanta had her case; Americas had
hers-and the United States is firmly
in the grasp of these sellers, and price
makers.

by the business men.

All of the virture does not lay with
the farmer either, for the market man
has a complaint In many instances
he charges that the farmer wants a
bonus on his crop-just because it is
raised here, and the city people preach
trade at home" The farmer should
be satisfied with the market price and
deal with the honest business man.
The farmer takes much less than a
market price when he sells his cot
ton; for the prices are made by the
Wall street exchange where the fleecv
staple is as curious as a patriotic by
phen amid the average German-Amer-
lean.
The new syrup and feed mills will
urge the farmers to plant the crops
which they can use. They have re-
quested the Times-Recorder to make
plain this request and statement. The
Farm Product Co., which is the name
OF the new concern, promises to buy
all of the sugar cane and sorghum
raised in this section, and the great
bulk of other crops such as oats, corn
and velvet beans-and they promise to
pay the market price. That is all that
the farmer should ask.
Mr.. Boil Weevil has found a strong
enemy in Sumter county We proudly
point to the preparation which is be-
ing made to withstand the attacks OF
the pest. If Sumter succeeds she
will be first in the history of the me-
nace-since it crossed the Rio Grande
river on the Texas border.

BEGIN HOT WATER
DRINKING IF YOU
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poIsons.

If you wake up with bad taste, bad
breath and tongue is coated; if your
head is dull or aching; if what you eat
sours and forms gas and acid in stom-
ach, or you are bilious, constipated,
nervous, sallow and can't get feeling
just right, begin inside bathing. Drink
before breakfast, glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This will flush the
poisons and toxins from stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse,
sweeten and purify the entire alimen-
tary tract. Do your inside bathing i'm
mediately upon arising in the morning
to wash out Of the system all the pre-
yious days poisonous waste, gases
and sour bile before putting more food
into the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became loaded with body i'm
purities, get from your pharmacist a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
which is inexpensive and almost taste
less, except for sourish twinge which
is not unpleasant.
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing, sweetening ant
freshening so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver
kidneys and bowels. Men and women
who are usually constipated, bilious
headachy or have any stomach dis
order should begin this inside bathinl
before breakfast. They are assur !,
they will become real cranks on tn,
subject shortly.

TO BUILD A VENICE
IN NEW YORK CITY

NEW YORK, Sept 21-Work has just
been started here on a project to buill
an American Venice" composed Of
little islands connected by bridges over
little canals, in Jamaica Bay. 1t will
b. a gigantic summer resort, teeming
with canoes, gondolas, launches and
summer girls. A new million dollar
city boulevard from the mainland will
intersect it.
The company behind the plan has
leased 1,147 acres of island a shoal
from the city for thirty years, at
S16.57 an acre for the first three years
and an increased price for later years.
There has been criticism of this price
as too low, but the new resort will
probably become famous all over the
world and bring hundreds of thous-
ands of out-of-town visitors. Detroit,
Mich, has a similar but smaller re-
sort.

THE RIGHT VIEW.

Sumter county bids fair to do some
thing new in the art of fighting the
boil weevil-and this distinction will
rebound in wonderful financial assist
ance for this section if the plans
which are fast maturing are carried
into execution.
Too much praise cannot be given
Agricultural Agent ]. G. oliver. Oh,
i is true that this is his work-and ne
is paid for his services, but that does
not lessen his zeal and interest; the
faith of the man in the future of
southwest Georgia and his laudable
desire to perform service which will
benefit his fellow man-that's Oliver,
and that's what he is trying to do. Our
senators and congressman are paid for
their services, but they are centers of
commentator when their acts bear
the ear-marks of patriotism
There are three other businesses in
Americas which now come in for a
lions share of praise. The three whole
sale grocery houses who will build a
syrup and feed mill plant to have it
in operation by November list, are per
forming a distinct service to this
community. And they, too, will make
a profit on their business-but it will
be a legitimate interest on their in
vestment, besides the wonderful ave-
nues of relief it opens for the farming
interests.

that cotton was his only money crop.
The plans for a farmers exchange
have been slow in their development,
but the Times-Recorder hopes to see
this follow quick in the steps of the
business sagacity and patriotism Of
the wholesale grocery houses in Amer

Forced to Conclude.
On the contrary, the government Of
the United States is forced by recent
events to conclude that it is only
one instance, even though one OF the
most extreme and most distressing
instances of the deliberate methods
and spirit Of indscriminate deStruc-
ton of merchant vessels of all sorts,
nationalities and destinations, which
have become more and more unspeak-
able as the activity Of the German
undersea vessels of war has in re-
cent months been quickened and ex-
tended.
The imperial government will re-
call that when in February, 1915, it
announced its intention of treating
the waters surrounding Great Britain
and Ireland as embraced within the
seat of war, and Of destroying all
merchant ships owned by its enemies
that might be found within that zone
of danger, and warned all vessels,
neutral as well as Delliger(<t, to
keep cut Of the waters thus proscrib-
ed, or to enter them at their peril,
the government Of the United States
earnestly protested. 1t took the posi-
ton that such policy could not be
pursued without constant gross and
palpable violations of the accepted law
of nations, particularly if submarine
craft We're to be employed as its in
strument, inasmuch as the rules pre-
scrbed by that law, rules founded on
the principles Of humanity and estab
lished for the protection of lives OF
non-combatants at sea, could not in
} the nature of the case, be observed

Would Be Exposed.
1t based its protest on the ground
that persons of neutral nationality
and vessels of neutral owners would
be exposed to extreme and intoler
| able risks, and that no rights to close
any part of the high sea could law
| fully be asserted by the imperial gov
eminent in the circumstances Their
existing. .- ,
! The law of nations in these mat
ters upon which the government Of
the United States based that protest
is not of recent origin or founded
upon merely arbitrary principles set
up by convention. 1t is based, on
the contrary, upon manifest .princi
pies of humanity and has long been
established with the approval and by
the expressed assent of all civilized
nations. The imperial government
notwithstanding persistence in carry.
ing out the policy announced. eX-

ment, Of course, involves, utterly in
compatible with the principles of hu.
manity. The long established and in
cOntrOvertible rights Of neutralS and
the sacred immunities Of non combat
ants.
But One Course.
If it is still the purpose of the I'm.
perial government TO prosecute re-
lentless and indiscriminate warfare
against vessels of commerce by the
use of submarines, without regard to
what the government of the United
States must consider the sacred and
indisputable rights of international
law and the universally recognized
dictates of humanity, the government
of the United States is at last forced
TO the conclusion that their is but one
course it can pursue.
Unless the Imperial government
should now Immediately declare ant
effect an abandonment of its presen
methods of submarine warfare
against passenger and freight carry
ing vessels, the government of thu
United States can have no choice bu
to sever diplomatic relations with the
German empire altogether.

it possible to hope that the officer

might be satisfied by imposing upon
him an adequate punishment, coupled
