BAD GAS

If the man OF Arpinum were living in Memphis, and depend
ing on a gas stove for his breakfast. he would probably take his
place in the midst OF the rostra and Indignantly demand,
"Quosque tandem abutere, Mr. Gas Mogul, patientia nostra +"
Surely the patience of the people is being sorely tried. The gas
being furnished them is not combustible nor sufficient in guam
tiy. Only the gas bills retain their pristine vigor and growing
magnitude.
Some years ago the method of making gas out of water was
introduced, and while Memphis is bone dry, the water does not
seem to be sufficiently anhydrous and descate to burn as fuel
Meantime the bills continue to grow.
If the company is seeking easy money" it can find a
shorter way to it by banking its fires and saving coal, dismiss
ing its meter readers and saving salaries, trusting to the dex-
terly OF the clerks to run the bills up to a point of great profit
The people have no temple of Jupiter Stator and no rotra and
had two gas companies here. We were great on competition in
those days and defiant OF economic laws that recognize natural
monopohes that must be regulated and not duplicated. These
companies were permitted to consolidate, and they were per
mrted to enjoy additional concessions which enabled the owners
to issue and float more bonds, which made a few men rich, but
lett the people no recourse or protection. For the last thirty
years every time the people Of Memphis granted a local public
utility an additional concession they were merely underwriting
a new bond issue, and ~pledging their property to paw PRINCIPAL
and interest on II. The theory and law then were, as now. that
when a public utility failed or refused to render the service
according to contract, its charter was to be forfeited, leaving the
teld open to anyone who would perform the service. Neither
theory nor law avails. The corporations, by uniting and max
ing common cause, are strong enough to gang the city govern
ment, gang the legislature and even the courts, and in this way
thwart and bring to naught every effort of the people through
their constituted authorities to obtain relief. The people are
helpless, and at their tender mercy, and will remain so as long
as they supinely submit, They have the power inherent in
them to right these wrongs, and some day, unless relief comes,
they will be goadcd into desperation and will take drastic meas,
ures to right their ~unbearable wrongs and remedy existing evils.
The tyrannouS onnipotence OF corporations can be terminated
as they have been ended in other places,

COTTON ACREAGE

The movement for a reduction of cotton acreage will he
influenced more by the scarcity OF labor and the prevailing price,
OF the staple than by agitation in favor of a program of volun-
tary reduction, but the combined effect Of these influences will
be demonstrated in the price of the 1919 crop. The farmer who
raises all the cotton he can at any cost, and sells it for what
he can get, must soon be a thing OF the past. He has learned
his lesson from the situation he is now experiencing, and here
after the price of his commodity should be based upon the cost
OF production, and not fixed by the manipulation of spectators
The excessive and undiminished price OF food for animals and
tenants, and the inability to market his cotton crop at a fair
price, have brought very forcibly to the mind of the farmer, as
nothing else could have done, the ialacy of oyerproduction and
its inevitable consequences. The 1918 cotton crop was the most
expensive ever produced, and to place it on the market at pre-
fvailing prices is to sell it at a sacrifice. Hardly secondary to the
argument for a reduction OF one third in the cotton acreage is
the urgent necessity Of employing that one-third in the produc-
ton OF foodstuiis which will make the farmer independent of the
market price of those articles, and permit him to exercise some
independence in disposng of his cotton. But it must not be
forgotten, in the consideration of these matters, that the South
is essentially a cotton country, and that its prosperity is depend
ent upon cotton, and when all else fails we must still rely upon
cotton.

BACK AGAIN

President Wilson will soon be on his way back to the
lpeace conference. which he will enter humbly and metculousy
1He will not have the power and prestige he had on his first
appearance. Congress has failed him. He leaves it in a discord-
ant jangIe and tangle. trying to dscredit his great work and
minimize his influence. 1t is shameful that partisan rancor
could 60 so far. If his political enemies sought to humiliate
him, they can congratulate themselves on having dsgraced
themselves and ~scandalized their country, pulled it down from
its high estate and cast reproach upon it. 1t is not conceivable
that the American people will indorse this; but the harm is done,
and it may not be possible to undo il even If they so desired,
In the hope of partisan advantage they have made a shuttle
cock of the highest and hottest mission that man ever engaged
in in the interest of humanity. The peace of the world is in
the balance, and the United States. that was a dominating factor
and a leader in the work, has partly turned Bolshevist and is
seeking to destroy. Party advantage is considered paramount
to world peace and the pcaceable adjustment of the great con-
fict. The Huns have every reason to rejoice. They have found
strong friends in an unexpected quarter. Well may they resume
their od-ime arrogance and defiance. They are invited to
re-engage in blood-spiling carnage and destruction, Surely
there must be a day of r%etributon. This crime against human
ity and this assault upon our national dignity and good faith
will not go unpublished.
