''IF''

If the winning of the war is the
overshadowing task of the American
people, the defeat of Senator Thomas
w. Hafdwick is the overshadowing
issue in the present senatorial cam
paign in Georgia
But if finishing the stupendous
task we have begun is not of supreme
Importance it does not matter
whether the world is made safe for
governments like ours and liberty
loving people such as we are-there
is no reason why anybody should OBJ
iect to Senator HardwicE's reelection.
\ Let the citizen of Georgia look at
the matter without prejudice pas
sion personal animosity of politi-
cal bias. Let him ignore the hector
ings and harangues Of those whose on
ly BUSINESS is politics and who are
lest unless they can keep the fl
polical factionalism aglow. Let him
be true to his country by being honest
with himself, and the inevitable re
suit will be a clear understanding of
situation which, while presenting
many angles,b.has but one issue OF
overshadowiRa ilnportance-the de-
feat of Senator Hardwick.
Let the Georgian who hears our
Junior Senator grandiloquently felici-
tating his fellow citizens on the glor'-.
GUS achievements ask himself how
many American soldiers would be in
France if the war measures Senate.
Hardwick fought had not passed or
if those he advocated had been en-
acted.-,Albany Herald.

S this for an honest man to makol

is this for an honest man to make!
Burleson had to make up shortage
of eleven millions in the postal re-
venues Georgia's portion of that laid
en- the newspapers is small as COM
pared with fifty millions Hernstoff
was spending on German propaganda
in Washington. We could have paid
our extra postal assessment cheerfully
could we have known that it would
have held our senator to us loyal and
true, when we most need him. We
were against Hardwick to a man
long before Burleson asked the news
papers to pay more postage.
There is not newspaper in Geor-
Gia--not a single newspaper, even his
own home paper--that is not our
spoken against Senator Hardwick.
They take that stand because OF their
pride in the patriotic loyalty of Geor-
gias sons in the trenches They want
their men on the firing line to know
they are supporting them. They want
their public servants in Washington
to work in unison and harmony
with the government and the nations
commander in chief SO faithfully and
honestly as to make the Georgians
who are facing the fire in EUROPE
know that back home the hand Of 4
powerful nation is raised to stricke
its most powerful blow. We want
these men to have faith in their state
and nation, because we want them to
be brave fighting men,
Senator Hardwck is living without
Ilthat confidence and his acts might
dampen their arder That's why the
newspapers oppose him.

HINDENguRG AND HE'LL.

Hindenburg climed a hill with the
kaiser not long since, to view the mir.
age of the wide western front land
they had promised themselves, and
later on it was reported for the TWEEN
tieth time that he was dead
But in a late dispatch, with a Lon
don date line, we are assured that,
though somewhat disfigured, the old
war horse is still alive
Hard luck for Hingenburg, was has
to fight and fail, and live to read OBJ
ituaries wherein he is damned before
he dies!

recruited man power from the farms.
Despite this disturbance, the farm
ers this year increased their produc-
ton over last year, which was an in
crease over the year before; they
have worked more days and more
hours, have put their families at work;
women have labored in the fields
while their babies. slept in the shade
of near by trees; many country chill
dren have labored while many city
children have played.
The farmers can not continue t
increase production in the volume
needed and at the same time, send
more man power to the army and the
city industries, 1t would not be fail
to- require it, if it were possible tc
accomplish it.
The only source of labor is the use
less service of the cities-able-bodie
men employed for luxury or mere con
venience and at tasks which womer
can perform.
The crops are not all gathered; mex
years crops are to be considered
food production must not fail.
What are we going to do about it.?

THE, ROOSEVELT BOYS.

AS the Savannah News points out,
the Roosevelt boys have been given
medals for the heroic deeds which
they themselves did. The Beast of
Berlin's boys were also given medals,
but it was for bravery of soldiers
whose bones have bleached upon the
battlefields. 1t shows the difference
between an autoracy. and democ-
racy.-Valdosta Times.

And now it is said that General
He'll has come to the front as a new
German army leader.
Hindenburg gave a pretty good i'm
itation Of it in the blood and burnings
of his strategic" retreats, and in
cruelties to the helpless and homeless;
but he didn't sweep wide enough to
please the kaiser; ana that Paris
dinner was, to him, fatal April

The Georgia legislature can give
money to many a worse cause than

not be money for every call. but the
good that can be done with books in
the hands of those who never read.

Disregard for the law in a demo-
