WHY THE HARRIS BOOM SURVIVES

Every political faction in the state
and every following of a "favorite
son" is having its inning in the game
of finding the logical man to "beat
Hardwick"
And one by one they are coming
round more or less gracefully to the
conclusion that no other Georgian has
anything like as excellent an oppor-
tunity to perform that highly impor-
tant service as Hon William j. Har-
ris.
We have both seen and heard the
statement made that the Harris sup
porters in the state seem to be try
ing to ram their candidate down the
throats of the people regardless Of how
the people feel"
That is not fair statement. 1t is
not based on a correct understanding
of conditions. The overwhelming
sentiment III favor of the chairman of
the Federal Trade commission is due
to the fact that he stands forth as the
man best qualified for this particular
task. The fact that the Washington
administration looks with favor on
bis candidacy does not prove that he
is sort of Lords anointed," as
some have sought to make it appear,
but it does prove that the admins
tration believes he is both competent
and loyal Added to that is the fact
that in all sections of Georgia men of
political Judgment believe that Mr..
Harris is the one candidate who can
command that statewide support which
the man who is to defeat, Senator
Hardwick must have.
The true explanation of the wide
of Harris sentiment lies
in the fact that no other man has
shown his political strength, and in
the further fact that his supporters
believe he will both ably and faith
fully represent Georgia in the senate.

THINK 1T OVER!

When one of our boys dies Over
There" we say he died doing his
duty
When somebody Over Here" buys a
bond yielding IA per cent. we call
him patriot!
If one of our boys hesitated as long
in going "Over The Top" as some peo-
pie do in buying bond, he would be
courtmartialled and shot for cow
ardice.
And if the same punishment were
meted out to non-combatants for f.
nancial cOwardice, an awful lot of
people in this town would be shot.
There isn't any use fooling our
selves-we have $S,OOO,OO0,OOO to
raise and only one week left to raise
it-and the non-combatant who can't
use bayonet and won't buy a bond
has no right in the United States and
no definite definition in the dictionary.

THE BIGGEST GUN YET.

The German wonder gun" isn't a
wonder after all, in comparison with
an American gun now being manu-
factured The German gun shoots
about rs miles The new American
gun is calculated to shoot ia miles;
and though it has yet to be tried out,
it's designers have no doubt as to its
range.
The published details are not very
specific, owing to the censorship. It
is stated, however, that the weapon is
made at the Midvale Steel Works and
mounted by the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, and weighs 200 tons. In
spite of its size and weight, it is
mobile, whereas the German cannon
is stationary and requires heavy con-
crete emplacement The first of The
type has been completed and shipped
to the coast for final tests. Nine more
are being built
Needless to say, this monster ~'l
not be h@ed as the Germans guns are
1t is not intended for sheiling de-
fenseless cities, demolishing churches
blowing up hospitals and killing Voc
en- and children in their homes. L
is meant primarily for coast defense
The military effectiveness of such {
weapon, for any purpose, is still doubt
ed by many experts. At so great ;
range gun must necessarily be fret
! blindly. A warship hundred mile!
off the coast, or half that distanc,
is necessarily invisible, both because
/ of the misty air and because of tht
curvature of the earth. 1t is doubt
full whether aviators could signal tn,
position of a ship, fort or any otheI
object as such distance and wheth
er the proiectile could be aimed will
any certainty if the exact position o
of the target were known.

GERMAN PUNISHMENT.

Prince Lichnowsky, former German
ambassador to England, is meeting +;
fate quite in line with the worlds ex
pectations, for his frank revelation
of the part the German government
/ played in starting the war The Prus
sian state prosecutor has asked per
mission to start criminal proceeding
| against him, and the Prussian house
of lords, of which Lichnowsky {
life member, and which seems to have
authority over such matters, ha'
] granted permission.
The prince has been virtually &
prisoner in his own house ever since
the publication of his famous mem
orandum' revealing the criminal plo.
Of the kaiser and his robber band. Now
he will presumably be clapped into
Jail and tried for treason. AT any
rate, he will be put safely out of the
way, as Karl Liebknecht has been, fol-
the remainder of the war, at least, nc
more truth will come from his lips or
pen, to the discontinue of the i'm
perial conspirators.
1t is the penalty that any German
may expect to pay under the present
regime, for letting out the truth about
the German war But Prince Lichnow-
sky need not be downcast; and if he
is the man we think he, he will not.
His action, despite his own perfume
tory explanation, seems to have all
the indication of a deliberate martyr
dom. If he did not mean to have that
expose published, he certainly took
deep SatlSIacLlOn III 1LS puDncdIIoh
He has eased his conscience, and 8
ready to stand the consequences. The
reward of this amazing anomaly-an
honest and civilized Prussian states
mans the knowledge that by clinch-
ing the proof of the German govern
ment's guilt he has performed an in
calculable service for all mankind,
and in the long run, for Germany her,
self.

SIZING UP THE AMERICAN.

To the Vossiche Ieitung we are in
debted for an Illuminating estimate of
the American troops.
Our soldiers" says the Zeitunys,
speak of the Americans as physically
fine, young, well equipped fellows, who
to be sure lack all experience in the
sharp forms of the western manner
of fighting, The Americans are live
ly, restless and adventurous, eager for
action. Day and night they are on
the edge for going on patrols and
making small attacks"
All this sounds rather compliment
airy though, patronizing,. But the
Americans, we are further informed,
though apparently bold, lack stamina.
Our men have very well and in
stinctively sensed the real nature of
these enemies, who, as our soldiers
say, plunge into battle as versatile
and daredevil sportsmen, but not at
all soldiers in our sense, and as mod
ern warfare demands. Our men do
not underrate the new enemy from
the new world, but feel superior to the
Americans in every respect"
If that's true account of the Boche
option we are satisfied. Let Fritz
feels just as superior as he likes. The
more superior he feels, the better
we'll like it. and the easier time Sammy
will have when he gets down to busi-
Iness and starts for Berlin.

Incidents in the Lives of Famous Women
Princess Gave Her Heart and
nv ELOTsE HARRINGTON

While the princess prayed, Horn
was far away in Ireland gathering a
band of warriors that he might
hasten to Cornwall and take Rymen-
lid by force. When all was in readi-
ness, he and his followers assumed
the disguise of pilgrims and set sail
for Cornish shores.
On the day set for the marriage of
Rymenild to King Mody, Alymer in
vited rich and poor to be guests at
the grand feast preceding the relig-
ious ceremony.
Rymenild, with colorless cheeks
and sad eyes, stood as motionless as
a statute while her maids fastened
strands of jewels about her throat
and wove them in her golden hair.
Her heart was heavy with disappoint-
ment and longing. Horn didn't come.
With slow steps she descended to
the great hall and took her place be-
side her father. On the opposite
side of the dais sat King Mody, and
Rymenild shuddered at the thought
of having to marry that man whom
she had seen but a few times and
