The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1919-01-14
THEODORE ROOSEVELT,

When news of the death of former Presi-
dent Roosevelt was flashed over the country
and across the seas people in all walks of
life paused and asked themselves if this
could be possible. SO virile had been his
life, so energetic his activities, so uncom-
planning his forbearance, that few realized
that for several weeks the sands of his life
had been running with accelerated rapiditv.
and that for years, ever since his trip into
the fever jungles of South Africa, the seem
ing granite wall of his rugged health had
been slowly yielding to the exactions of ma
ture The public was i'll prepared for the
receipt OF the news of his death. He had
a part of so much of the public life, of the
nations activities and of the peoples
thought that he seemed a thing apart from
life and death
He was red-blooded man who sought the
arena Of battle rather than the quiet of the
cloister. He had little patience with the trim
mer and middle of the road advocate. His
blows when delivered were from the shout
der, He was not in sympathy with the ef
Terminate man whose field Of effort Law in the
drawing room I'D afternoon teas. He be-
heved there was a mans world world Of
effort and contest and accomplishment at
tainable only by the vigor of manhood alive
to the call of determined effort.
Since retiring from the presidency he had
been the center of many political storms,
some of which were cyclonic in character
He had been more bitterly assaled and more
enthusiastically followed than any other
man in American politics. He had never
failed to give blow for blow.
Beside his bier nation bowed in tribute
to the dead. From prince and potentate and
citizen in the humble walk Of life come words
of appreciation and devotion and tokens Of
a fraternity Of fellowship which leap the
chasm that divides men in life but unites

GEORGIA'S DISGRACE.

1t is announced that Governor Dorsey will
make an effort to have the next legislature
provide means for improving the state cap
itol, which, to describe it mildly, is in dis
graceful condition. 1t needs repairing and
renovating from dome to cellar. In its
present dirty, smoky and dilapidated condi-
ton, inside and out, citizens of Georgia who
have pride in their state can view it only
with a sense of shame
People from every section of the union,
and often from foreign countries, visit the
capitol every day, and it requires no stretch
of the imagination to say that they are sur
prised and disappointed at the condition of
the building where the governemnt of the
Empire State of the South is domiciled
If Georgia is too poor or too niggardly to
put its state house in respectable condi-
ton, in keeping with its place among the
great commonwealth of the nation, it would
be well to accept Macon's proposition to
present Georgia with a new and modern
capitol building and move the seat of gov
eminent to that city,

The Parsonage Rose Bush.

Miss Ella c. Bacon, sister of Mrs. T. NJ.
Galloway, wife of the pastor of the Dawson
Baptist church, contributes to the Atlanta
the front yard of the parsonage:
"There it stands, fourteen feet in height,
at the corner of the~yeranda nearest the
church. It's boughs extend almost as far,
clambering in and above its roof, their
myriad leaves trembling in the air, their
blossoms showering beauty and fragrance
everywhere.
''The bouquets gathered from the branch
es, that have frightened the lives of friends,
made more fair the faces of sweet girls who
wore them, blessed the bedsides of the sick,
and brought sweet comfort to the hearts of
those who sorrowed for their loved ones,
have been numberless.
Gin spring the Frightening buds first walked,
in summer the countless roses made huge
bouquet upon the lawn filling the air with
fragrance until their petals fell upon the
grass below, a carpet beautiful in autumn,
their pinkering petals, deeper dyed and
warmer hued, brought us thanksgiving.
Zone summer beneath its leafy bower the
boys of the household stood to make pic
ture fair for passing artist And girlies too,
laid down their dollies in it's shade-a play
house grand.
"Now at Christmastide full-blown roses,
cream and white blooms of fragrance a sau-
Ger wide, fewer yet more perfect, bedeck a
Christmas tree of roses! It's browning
beauty, a rose on topmost stem, lifts its fair
face to heaven to say, | bloom for Thee

A Royal Murder.
From the Ohio State Journal.

The murder Of the ear of Russia and his
family is one of the most shocking deeds of
these bloody times. 1t is simply an exhib
ton of BOlsheviki supremacy and goes to
show what radical socialism would be if it
had the upper hand. The car was not a
bad man as rulers go. He was man of some
high ideals. These were not ALWAYS real
lied, but that was because he had an au-
tocracy to deal with, but an autocracy not
near so low as the Bolsheviki had put in its
place. The circumstances surrounding the
murder Of the car, not execution but down
right murder, were horrifying to every SEN
timent of humanity. What a great thing it
would be if these murderers could be annre-
hended and shot to death over the grave of
the car. But that will not be; but all the
same humanity will suffer to the end for this
cruelty to the car and his family. Who
knows but the sad state of Russia is form
of THAI deserved retribution?

APPLYING A PEACE POULTICE

Among the early opportunities for the
peace conference to apply its proclaimed
policies of preventing war will be that of
adjusting the controversy which has arisen
between Italy and the Jugo-Slavs over GER
tain territory both the nations want out of
the dismemberment of Austro-Hungary The
discord is founded in what is tersely termed
Italia irredenta, or unredeemed Italy 1t is
based on the establishment of nations and
the adjustment of territory on chronological
or racial foundations as against geographic
cal boundaries. The Jugo-Slavs and Italy
desire the same territory. AS both cannot
obtain it the dispute will be carried to the
peace table.
Leaving out Of the discussion the contro-
versy between the Jugo-Slavs outside of Ser
bia and Serbia herself concerning the rights
Of the new and old nation the new nation
desires large area, eastward of the Adriat-
&c sea, with abundance of coast on that
water. Within this desired area are terrific
ries which Italy claims are peopled almost
entirely by Italians, and that for this rea-
son should be part of the Italian domain.
The fact is that the territories in contro-
versy are inhabited by both Italians and
Slavs, and this is one, though not the most
important, ground of misunderstanding. The
Jugo-SLavs are willing to leave the matter
to a vote of the interested provinces; to
allow them self determination. So far as
the matter can be judged from this distance
Italy does not desire that course, basing her
objections on the theory that as the people
on oln,,
unnecessary
The larger cause of the misunderstanding
Is the rivalry of the nations for access to
the Adrlatlc. 1t is contended that Italy de-
slres to convert that sea into an Italian lake
by obtaining the territories which surround
its head and extend southwark on the eastern
side to Ragusa. This would give the Jugo-
Slavs sea coast less than 100 miles in ex-
tent and lacking in harbors and sea trade
facilities, AS two bodies cannot occupy the
same space one or the other of these claims
must give way or a compromise must be
reached which will divide the eastern Adri-
attic coast between the two so that both
will be satisfied, difficult problem, but the
one offering the only chance for avoiding
a clash between the governments
II the peace conference can dispose of
this knotty problem in manner which shall
satisfy the demands of both sides it will
have demonstrated in no uncertain manner
that the war has been fought for the pur-
pose of eliminating war as a means of ad-
Justing national disputes. If the dispute
IS not adjusted there is every reason at this
time to believe it will result in conflict of
arms between Italy and Slavonia at no dis
tant date

Spent Five to One.
From the Chicago Blade. .

The Canadian government reports that its
army expenses for four years have been a
little more than one billion dollars. During
that time Canada has maintained an army of
more than $500 a year across the sea and
100000 in training or moving to or from the
other side. In other words, during the four
years for one billion dollars Canada has had
what is equal to more than fifteen hundred
thousand troops for one year.
The United States has not averaged an
army of fifteen hundred thousand for the
last year, yet the cost of the support of the
United States army alone for the last year
has been over five billion dollars, or five
times as much as it cost Canada,
Investigating congressional committees
during the next year will be as thick as mos
quitoes on a stagnant pond and the country
will be surfeited with ''five-reel thrillers "
The figures given above do not include the
support of anything except the army alone
in both the United States and Canada.

DEPORTlNG ALIEN ENEMIES,

The recent executive order under which
the restrictions placed on alien enemies was
materially amelorated calls attention to a
measure pending in congress for the deporta-
ton of these enemies. There are about
5000 aliens in the various internment camps
of the country. Some of them are members
of the crews of German boats which were
held in American ports before the United
States entered the war. Others are danger
Gus aliens who while not committing overt
acts which would have landed them in fed
eral prison were guilty of moral crimes of
omission which made their internment a
justifable precaution against open acts.
Some of the informed enemies might be
called victims of circumstances, the circum-
stances being their Germanized environ
ments.
Sullen observance of the requirements of
the government with heart in vicious re-
bellion against the action and the govern
ment which enforces it is not evidence of
American conversion sufficiently strong to
Justify the liberation of the informed aliens.
They are less subdued than the people of
Germany, who see and feel the hand of the
conqueror in their land. The interned en-
emies will be resentful against the govern
ment and. against the people. 1t is danger
Gus to tusn them loose with no restrictions
on their course and no inhibition on their
conduct.
They have no right in the country which
the government is morally bound to- respect
They are here by sufferance If they are I'M
worthy of confidence they made themselves
so. The course to pursue is to enact the
pending measure into law, and under its au-
thority ship the entire bunch who come
under its provisions back to Europe.

South Has a Treasure.
James Galloway in Macon Telegraph.

The south has a treasure in Senator I'm
derwood. He opposes the trend of passing
over to the federal government control of
our state affairs. Surrender the rights of a
state to control its own affairs and what
next? He says:
of the present tendencies are not checked
the people of the states will soon be so far
removed from an effective control over their
own affairs that they will cease to have a
real voice in their determination"
The senator again says: "The absolute
control of the franchise was in the beginning
wisely left with the states and remained
with them except insofar as the fifteenth
amendment to the constitution gave to the
negro the opportunity to govern the state
under the power of the central government.
When we yield the principles of local self
government as to the one measure we may
be compelled to ultimately yield them as to
all 1t is a mistake to weaken our state.

HOPES NEW SECRETARY WILL
STOP THE BEGGING POLICY
From the Moultrie Observer

FROM Jne MoulCrle observer.
The new secretary of the treasury is an
old newspaper man. He knows what pub
lefty is and what it is worth. 1t is to be
hoped that he will reorganize the publicity
work of the treasury department, and spend
the millions of dollars where it will get re-
suits, and at the same time stop the begging
policy that was adopted by the late very
able secretary. 1t was the one weak place in
the administration of Secretary McAdoo that
he had a very mistaken view of advertising
and how the government should secure it,

The News joins in congratulations to Edi-

versary of the Greensboro Herald-Journal.
AS he expresses it, "The Herald-Journal has
ifty-four candles on its birth day cake. "
Like some other things our contemporary i'm
proves with old age, and is brighter and
sprlghtlier than ever before in its long career.
May it celebrate just as many more birth
days with editor Williams still mounted on
the tripod-whatever that is.
