A "BENIGHTED- CANDIDATE.

William Schley Howard-if you
don't know who he is, he is the At
lanta congressman who says he is run
ming for the United States Senate
says that the only supporters of Hon
William J. Harris are "a few whiting
politicians in the small towns, and a
few benighted newspapers
This silly statement, however, is
consistent with the line of senseles
chatter INDUCED in by Howard every
time he opens his mouth, and from
all accounts is nearly always open.
There is not a town, nor city in
Georgia but what furnishes some
it's leading citizens to the contingent
Of Harris supporters. Usually the.
are men of much prominence as the
mayor, the judge, the banker, the bes
lawyers, etc. They are men Xix
Judge Andrew ]. Cobb. men like w. H
Burwei,, men like Mayor Pierpont
men like Hugh McTntire, men like w
M. Howard. And do they belong ia

AS for the newspapers, in the first
place, can Howard name a singl
newspaper in Georgia that is support
ing him? Not even the Atlanta papers
have dared to openly come out il

AS A MATTER OF RIGHT.

There are so many meritorious MAG
ters pending before the present seq
sion of the Georgia legislature, some
of them newly introduced, others
brought over as unfinished bushes
from last summer, that it is Difficult
to distinguish any particular one a
most deserving of consideration.
However, there one bill AROUND
which somewhat of fight centere,
last year, that will be discussed again
and it is one that, in all fairness, am
for the sake of the future, should b
passed. This bill would vest the rail
road commission with the right to fl
a minimum rate for public utility
companies. such as light plants.
Already the commission has the
power to designate a maximum rate
beyond which the companies cannot
charge. This is for the benefit OF
the people, and without that protec-
ton the consumer would be at tn
mercy of the corporations.
The bill now pending is for the bene-
fit of the small companies, designed
to protect them against the more
powerful competing companies
For instance, iw ths-e are two light
and gas companies in the Same town,
each striving for the public business,
and in their zeal to secure contracts
from each other they slash rates. This
is all well and good for the public,
but in the end it will, result disas
trously for one of the competing
plants. The one most aole to stan
the campaign will cut the rates so low
as to destroy all profit, and then tn
weaker company, will be forced to
suspend. Another effect, in that con
sequence, will be to force locfl
monopoly which is never advantage
GUS to the public
But if the railroad commission has
the right to say that neither compan.
shall fix rate below certain mark
this guarantees to the smaller com
pany the certainty of fair and equit-
able chance to operate, and means
also for the public the benefit of hon
est competition
Without regard to any local appli "a
ton that the present bill may may
not have, it is a meritorious piece Of
legislation, that should be approved Of
by both the House and the Senate

A CINDER DEFLECTOR.

Schley Howard sarcastically (ans
meretriciously) says the only legisla
ton ever devised by Hon. William
j. Harris was bill providing cinder
defiector.
But even at that it will be sufficient
to defect cinder like William Schley
Howard from going to the Unitet
States Senate!

THIS BILL SHOULD PASS.

county, has introduced bill intended
to prohibit the teaching Of the Ger
! man language or the use ct any Ger
man language book in any of the
schools or colleges of the state. This
bill ought to pass the Legislature
quicker than hell can scorch a
feather.
Not only Georgia but the world as
well, would be better without the
German language, or the German peo-
pie or German ideas and traditions.
For generations to come, for genera
tions yet unborn, Germany will be a
thing despised German-made goods
will not be tolerated in this country
nor in the countries of the Allies. Ger
mans will be distrusted They will
be Stunned hated, and watched
Do you think for a moment that the
mother or father or the brother or
sister of Georgia boy killed in
France can ever find any solace in
reading Germany poetry, or in hearing
German music, or in buying German
products or in cultivating an ac-
quaintance with the German tongue?>
Do you think that any of the boys
who return from that fiery hell in
France, where they are in deadly con-
tact with the most monstrous race that
ever inhabited the earth, do you think
that when they return they will es-
TEEN anything remotely pertaining to
the German?
There was time when classic Greek
vas the prevailing language of the
world. and there was still another
era when it Wed with the Latin for
laurels. At that time the scholors
would have argued THAT those Ian
guages would never vanish into oh
llvion, until the earth itself ceased t
be. But today Greek and Latin, a
they were spoken two thousand years
ago are known only to the culture
few, and yet the progress Of civiliza
ton has never abated, and mankind
goes on its way just the same.
So with the German language We're
it obliterated, were the easiest of its
gutterals absolutely forgotten, the
would would never know the differ
ence. If German literature and music
and art were wiped from the face Of
the earth, the world would proceed on
it's way. The glory that is Goethe and
the grandeur that is Wagner are over
whelmed by the shameful philosophy
of Germany's modern thinkers and the
atrocious practises of its rulers and
people. When one thinks of the muir
dered children and outraged women Of
Belgium and France, somehow or
other, Goethe and Schiller and Wag-
ner and Schumann do not seem as
great as they used to be
We do not want the faint of German
thought in our ideas. We do not need
the mixture of German with on
mother tongue. We do not fancy tn
products of German hands and factor
les any more. If it is made, written
or conceived in Germany, it is intoler-
able in America, Let the Legislature
act, act quickly and periodically, on
the bill to prohibit teaching or the use
of the German language in the schools
of Georgia. af
