THE SENATOR STARTS RIGHT.

1t must be gratifying to all thinking Georgans-
that their junior senator, by his first important
vote in the upper house cf congress since taking
seat few days ago, was on the progressive side.
This statement has to do with the vote of Senator
Wn J. Harris last week FOR the resolution submitting
70 Ire sze OF the union the proposition amend the
constitution Of the United States granting the ballot to
IRE women Of the nation If memory serves right, this
: the first vote ever cast by Georgia senator for ex-
tending the right Of suffrage the mothers of
Equal suffrage is a disputed question in the South
-wtsch means that there is divided opinion on the
question in Georgia-because it involves incidentally
another question. But there be dspuiting the
and just other problems have been solved as they
met there need not be the slightest doubt that the
Incidental questions coming to the South with the advent
of suffrage will be solved too satisfactorily and justly
In taking this vigorous position in his first real test
Senator Harris has shown where he stands he has shown
that he not only stands for progressive thought
on but that he may be depended upon to support the
and principles of great president who after
in the hands of the by federal action lined up
the side of right, which has always won him.
Senator Harris and Georgia are to be congratulated
upon their showing in the record of the United States
Senate for the memorable afternoon of Friday June s.

PRICES REMAIN HIGH.

Price problems have been under investigation by
the Department of Labor of late The Bureau of Labor
Statistics has found that retail prices for food reached
their peak in December 1915 and that there slight
declines in January and February but advances in the
two succeeding months In April, 1919, the cost of p
articles of food combined for the United States
whole IL per cent higher than in April, 1918, and
IS per cent higher than in April, 1913.
at is my belief that the range of prices for the
necessities of life will average little, if any, lower than
at the present time, says Julius Rosenwald, of Sears
Roebuck Co., Chicago, in discussing price tendencies
"Of there will be exceptions but do not
look for sudden violent reduction in the future
aside from those which have been artifically stmuat
ed" Mr. Rosenwalds view is similar in this respect to
that of John j. Arnold vice president of the First Ma
ona Bank of Chicago, who says it is futile for industry
to wait for pre-war commodity prices.

THE SENATE AND IRELAND.

r By of sixty to one the United States senate
has officially asked the American Peace Commission
sitting at Versailles to obtain hearing for the Irish
Cause before the Peace Conference. The resolution
embodying this request reads as follows:
Resolved that the Senate of the United States
earnestly requests the Peace Commission at Versailles
to endeavor to for Arthur Grffths Edward de
Valera and Count George Noble Plunkett hearing be-
fore the Peace Conference in order that they may
sent the cause of Ireland.
"Resoved that the Senate of the United States
express its sympahes with the aspirations of the Irish
people for government of its own choice"
In his statement in support of this resolution Sena-
tor Lodge said among other things that before the
Conference had undertaken regulate worldaffars,
including the Interpretation of strictly national policy
like the Monroe Doctrine such resolution that pass
ed by the senate would have been considered undue med
ding with question which not business. "But
the objection, the Senator sajd can longer exist.
The Peace Conference has passed far beyond its primary
business of making peace with Germany and making
with the world. 1t has entered into the sphere
of international relations the world over"
For this reason, the Senator said, the resolution
adopted by the Senate was justified.
Perhaps such justification was needed. self
determination" has become an almost universally ac-
cepted principle, 1t has been accepted for Poles and
Jugosavs for Jews and Czechosavs for Arabians and
Lhuanians perhaps should be accepted for Ireland
However, the question involves great difficulties For
hundreds of years British statesmen have wrested with
the Irish problem-from Cromwell to Lord Morley. VI
ster asde there be question that Ireland wants
her independence and perhaps there is why she
should not present her claims before the Peace Confer
ence.
But for the Senate of the United States to pass

WEATHER.

F | could the weather for seasons two or
/ three, medal made of leather you'd doubtless
hand to me. The climate presented strikes
as being bad most men are disconnected and
of US are mad. When sunshines badly needed, the
rain falls every day; the fields by hard work seeded
are drowned and washed away. And when we need
some water to save our oats and rye, the sun gets
hot and hotter and crops begin to fry. I'd get my
friends together and ask for their advice if could
run the weather just once maybe twice. I'd ask
the honest voters, the farmers blue and tired the
weary burden toters, to tell what they desired.
I'd give them what they wanted, cyclone or some
sleet; by precedent undaunted, I'd give it and re-
peat The man who runs the weather sits in tow
er alone, and cares no fig or feather how weary
mortals He has helpful system, no useful
plan in force though we have often Kissed him, he
goes his bughouse course; he keeps the punk sun
sizzling when needing rain, and sends the
water drilling when floods on the plain He
combs his hangdown heather, and runs things hit
or miss; if Icould run the weather I'd fill your
lives with bliss.

at this thine, and by almost unanimous VOTE resolu-
ton of the character above mentioned, is a matter
aught with the gravest danger not only to the fate of
the proposed League of Nations but the very peace
the world 1t is utterly mmpossble to understand how
the United States Senate body which is usually most
careful and conservative in all international matters
should have taken such extraordinary and such utterly
unprecedented as to suggest in effect the dis
memberment OF any nation and particularly with
on the most friendly terms imaginable The situation
is pregnant with mitless dangerous possibilities that
may conceivaby the disruption of the Peace Con-
ference the destruction of all its work. even the
plete notification of the beneficial effects of the vic
tory of the allies Whatever may be personal our
national sympahes desires regarding the Irish prob
lem, the matter is unquestonably domestic question
for Great Britain and Ireland themselves to solve and
We as nation have more right to take the action
ment has to recommend to the Peace Conference that
the residents of Alaska Porto Rico New York City
any other part of the United States should be per-
mitted hearing the question of their right to with
draw from under the authority of the United States and
set up separate, independent government
The Federal government at Washington was, as
will be remembered gravely aggravated not so many
ago at the merest suggestion that England might
recognize the Confederacy-a governmental organiza-
ton which had not only demonstrated its mighty power
but which also unquestionably represented the will of
practically every one of its millions of highly cultured
people Bitterly Washington government resented
Britans proposed action that critical time, the plan
was far uncaed for and of place than is the
action of the Senate in passing this resolution Indeed
this action utterly absurd and unjusfable that one
is almost forced to the conclusion that it must be the
result of trick-possibly a trick to defeat the
League of Nations Whatever the motive the method
passing this resolution the Senate has done the most
extraordinary and dangerous thing regards the peace
and welfare of the world that has happened since Ger
many started the awful world Possibly prompt and
wise action by the president in interpreting this action
to the English people may dam the flood of indignation
that inevitable; the Senate itself may, by reso-
luton interpret modify its astounding act as to
avoid disastrous results Unquestonably something of
this kind should be done, and done quickly.
