York, The National

freedom of the world-and think of
what the result would have been had

guns out of commission and captured

Nashville is pushing a project to buy
for York, in his home county, a well
stocked farm and give it to him in the
name of the people of Tennessee who
are proud of him. With all of his
bravery, York is but a modest, unas-
suming young man, who made no
boasts as to his wonderful perform
ance. The trimmings of one of York's
little finger nails is worth a million
times more than the bodies and souls
of alleged men who have plenty Of
money-and viii not give a cent of it.

A "Tip' For The
County Agents.

There is no way in which the coun-
ty agents could so easily and effective
ly further their work as through the
columns of the country press" says
one of Minnesota's live wire editors
but it is an unfortunate fact, he adds,
in substance, that 80 per cent of them
are dumber than horses to this sort of
thing. Instead of writing stuff that
is as good as news, they too frequent
ly send in long arguments (which do
not convincel for the continuance of
their work, or something of that sort.
Moreover, these men spend days on
the farms of the county and return to
their offices without anything in the
nature of live newspaper stuff that
you can get out of them with a cork
screw.
This may be an exageration for the
purpose Of emphases but is largely
true, and many of our editors will ap-
preciate what this editor-George W.
Kelly, of the Detroit Herald-has to
Minnesota Press Bulletin.
We believe Mr.. II. A. Powers, the
Henderson county agent, to be the
original man in Tennessee in the line
Of endeavor indicated in the above
article and in the work we have
never failed to encourage him.

Memphis Celebrat-
ing Centennial.

Memphis, the metropolis of Ten,
nessee, began last Monday weeks
celebration of the one hundredth an
niversary of the founding of the city
and the county of shelby. Mayor
Frank l.. Monteverde made procla.
nation in the Sunday papers to that
effect and grew eloquent in praise Of
his city-hear him: Nowhere ON
Gods great universe to-day does the
sun in the heavens sprinkle its gol-
den rays upon happier or more
prosperous people; nowhere on the
two hemispheres can there be found
a spot upon which nature has more
lavishly smiled" In honor of the CEN
tenary occasion and for the glory
and business advancement of Mem
phis and her territory or business
district, the Commercial Appeal on
last Thursday printed a wonderful
edition, which not only gave a fair
idea of Memphis in all its greatness,
but reached out and showed in page
after page the attractions of many
good towns and counties which are in
many ways tributary to the great,
and modern city that stands on the
spot on the bank of the mighty
Mississippi river, where DeSoto
stood when he, as the first whiteman,
to view the Father of Flowing Wa
ters. The Commercial Appeal is the
"last word" in printing in the South
and tii% great edition of over hun
dred pages has added still more to
its honor and glory. We who know
Memphis and are proud of our big
town, all wish that we could join the
mighty throng" all this week, in do
ing honor to the city which has the
promise of some day being one of the
biggest, as it is already one of the
most ehterprising, in all the land.

Launck
Big Campaign.

Last Sunday at IL o'clock pQrl
the Methodists Of the United States
set in motion the machinery of q
campaign to raise the huge sum of
$1O5,OOO,OOO - $35,000,00O by the
Southern Methodists, while their
Northern brethren, or rather the M.
E. Church all over the country pledge
seventy millions.
The drive is to cover eight days
and we notice the quota of Shelby
county is 100000.
This campoign is the beginning of
a worldwide effort by practically all
Protestants to carry the Christian
message to the uttermost parts of
the earth.
The Centenary drive was great
success on its very first day, as it
became known before the official
headquarters closed on Sunday night
that the Southern Methodists alone
had contributed the sum of eighteen
million dollars.
The drive opened with the enor-
nous gift of $75O,O0O from a West
ern man who withheld his name
and is not member of the Methodist
church.
Memphis and Shelby county went
s4S,00O over their quota of 100000
on the first day-Sunday, and the
Chattanooga district did the same.

The Bird That
Can Sing, Etc.

The German declaration made at
the last week end, that that counry's
representatives could not and would
not sign the peace treaty put up to
Germany, might have carried more
weight had the fact not been estab-
lished that Germany has no word of
honor-hence, the allies will have to
act on the idea that "A bird that can
sing and will not sing, must be made
to sing" The Allied governments can
not afford to forget that it was Spar
tacans, Socialists, Imperialists and
all the rest Of the German devils who
committed the outrages in Belgium
and France, Seryia and Poland. His
tory for a thousand years proves that
to show mercy to Germany is but to
warm a viper in ones bosom. Tire

Government Own
ership q Failure.


Nho have hsd* experience
with government ownership, either
as directors or, shall we say victims
have either convinced themselves
or a great majority of the people of
its futility. Burleson has demon
strated to the full limit how ineffi-
ciently the wire service of the coun-
try could be conducted. His demon
stration was so convincing that the
wire concerns had to be returned to
their original owners with more
haste than dignity Those who have
conducted the railroads have shown,
too, how a big deficit could be built
up under government operation, and
how this distressing situation could
be made without hope of immediate
relief.
Now comes Charles Piez, who re
Gently retired as manager of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, with
the flat-footed declaration that he
had been converted against any ideas
he previously entertained Of the need
or the benefit to be derived from fed
eral operation of public utilities. Mr..
Piez advises the government to sell
all the ships recently taken over as
war emergency, or there will be an
era of cut-throat competition that
will be good for neither the shippers.
the shipping interest nor the gov
ernment.
1t should be clear to the average
man that private enterprise with
the incentive to individual benefit
that it implies could be made more
efficient than federal operation that
would bring to control men who had
no particular interest in the wirk
they had to do. OF course private
handling of public necessities should
be properly regulated by the govern
ment so that the rights of the people
be not violated Also, the rights Of
those who operate these enterprises
are inst as sacred and should be just
as vigorously respected.
Federal operation of all branches
of activity opens too wide a field for
politics, and this is said in a thor
oughly non-partisan spirit. The de-
sire to obtain partisan advantage by
the use Of such tremendous power in
here's in both Democratic and Repub-
lican parties, so that it would make
little difference in the long run
which party were in control. 1t is
axomatic that politics can not pro-
duce what individual initiative is
capable Of doing.-Commercial Ap

the Atlantic Ocean, after the long
flight of 1850 miles from New
