BIENNIAL sEssIoN-wHENa

Georgia is one Of the only six states
left now holding annual sessions of
it's legislature. The others have gone
to the biennial sessions and it is
thing of more than ordinary note that
they are satisfied with what they
have. An annual session-an extra
session now and then thrown in-is
thing that may we'll be considered as
an expense which could be easily re-
moved.
There is no new argument in the
assumption that Georgia needs it's
funds for it's schools, for the exploit
tation of better methods in agricul-
ture and thousand other things-and
it needs less for its legislative ses-
sions. If we can afford to relieve our
counties of the biennial setto and
make it every four years instead, we
can we'll afford to cut the sessions
of the legislature down and save the
expense.
Members of the legislature who
have the good of the state at heart
ought to begin to look well to this
thing. Besides the saving in expense,
the state would be relieved of the de-
liberations of these sessions that Of
ten are now no more than a simple
farce and the members themselves
might turn to real business.
Much of the lost time in the annual
session is due to the fact that there
is so little to do of real merit Hun
dreds of new measures are introduced
at every session these days, but very
few of them ever get to the statute
books. The biennial session would
tend to safeguard against these in
Vulnerable freak measures.
The biennial session has come to
be necessary. Our state needs the
change. Our law makers will some
day in the not far distant future see
the need of this change and give it
to the people of Georgia. 1t should
be done without further delay.

WHY ENGLAND ESCAPES.

Occasional notes passing between
the government of the United States
and Great Britain reveal that the fire
flies OCCASIONALLY when the affairs of
the two countries get mixed with the
European conflict OF late Great
Britain is said to have romped heav-
lily upon the business of the United
States, opened her mails and played
the duce in general.
But all this is matter of little con-
Germ here in this country compared
with the almost universal desire to
see England and the entente powers
bottle up Germany. The commerce
of the United States has suffered at
the hands of England lately and
rights have been invaded but we may
rest assured less of it would have
been done had not Englishmen known
before hand that they we're dealing
with we'll wishers and their friends.
England has always explained diff
cult situations as best she could and
the invariable answer that such and
such course has been necessary in
order to reach Germany. Playing the
part of neutrals at Washington when
such answers come in is all farce, but
who knows better than official Wash
ington that this country is eager to
see the entente conquer and squelch
the German.
Americans are usually on the side
of fair play. They want the under
dog to have his day when they do find
time to vary the fair play policy, but
here is change about. All the world
is on the Teuton's matchmaking lit
tie off him, it is true-but millions of
true Americans know that German
militarism must be destroyed 1t will
be day of republican independence
in Europe that will never be forgot
ten when the present German rule is
wiped out. None of the attacking en-
emies of Germany are willing to per-
nit it to remain and if the truth were
known, America would hail the de-
struction with satisfaction.
