WHY STOP WITH RAILROADS

The Americus Greeting says, if the government is going to control the railroads, public utilities, regulate business generally, and open up real era of paternalism, why not go at it right and run all the activities of the people?
 Public roads shuld all be run alongside the railroads and save dis tance from town to town" says the Greeting. In place like Americus, one big grocery under government ownership could sell goods at net cost and expenses of selling and save three or four buildings, three or four fires, and three or four delivery systems. In Emporia two lawyers would be enough-one to get you into trouble and the other to get you out One minister could preach for several congregations for the same price he can to the smaller when they are di- vided up. All the old widows and widowers should be compelled to couple up. This would conserve four carloads of coal each winter right here in Ainerieus, and make plenty of houses to rent for evezyoee tha- want ed one.
 Politicians and oai.e seekers should be put CT the sssil pile. ped dlers shoul3 be compeiiad . work ea the farm for .ttair }oassl and n other ways under government control many saving innovations could be made-K c. Star.

Save the Grain"

In Oklahoma, big "Save the Grain" campaign is being conducted in which bankers, merchants and man. agers of industries are cooperating to improve and extend storage facili- ties in order that large part of the grain that cannot be shipped out at once may be prevented from spelling The campaign is being conducted un- der the direction of a state manager, with committees in each county. The State Beard of Agriculture is also participating and has advised all grain farmers to build or arrange for a suit able storage for part of the wheat crop instead of hoping to market it by throwing upon the railroads in a brief time more of burden than it will be possible to handle. Stacking a part of the wheat is advised if possi-

A WOEFUL WINNER AND A HAP
 u PY LOSER

The local Republican daily in trying to offer consolation to William J. Bryan gives vent to the delicious opin- ion that MT. Bryan scored a wonder full victory at San Francisco on all points except the inclusion of dry plank in the platform. The same Re publican organ is even more delightful when it observes that MT. Bryan's po- sition is much to be preferred to that of Presidenr Wilson. who was defeat ed, rejected and repudiated both in the platform adopted and in the nominees selected at San Francisco. Could there be a rarer example of uncon- Scious humor?
 In view of the fact that MT. Bryan led the opposition to President Wilson and in view of the fact that the Ne braskan has said, "my heart is in the grave" over the doings of the conven- tlon, 1t would seem barely possible that the Commoner is not yet con- scious of his wonderful success. In such situation, then, to relieve MT. Bryan's anguish by convincing him of his victory would be nothing more nor less than the work of brotherly be- nevolence. Also, since President Will son continues to felicitate the party on its platform and it's candidates, it IS equally obvious that he does not realize the crushing defeat that was administered to him. Someone should tell him of it and stop the flow of presidential congratulations.
 Surely are the times out of joint when we have a heartbroken winner and an enthusiastically happy loser
 And now that President Wilson has accepted Gov. Cox's interpretation of the treaty as being in thorough &C., cord with his own, our local Republi-- can sheet ought to inform the presi- dent that it knows his mind better than he himself does. Someone should warn our chief magistrate that Gov. Cox, who has said that the treaty and league of nations ''wove the elements Of simple justice into the fabric of in- ternational policy" is lurking around with knife to cut the heart out of this justice.
 But above all does Gov. Cox himself seem to be the worst sef-deceived of all. He has said of the president that: His name will be chanted by the chil- Na SAA VI iiiti yGt u1lDOIu, WQll6 the names of those who made from their malignant spite a senatorial cabal against Woodrow Wilson will have been consigned to a part and place in the records of time too important for voice to recall or memory to re- taln. Poor. deluded young man. He speaks thus when he. is the leading Wilson hater and the anti Wilson can didate- Evidently he does not realize the depth of his bitterness towards the president, and it's about time that someone told him of it.
 Also should Senators Shields and Reed, the leaders of the treason squad in the Senate, be made acquainted with their glorious victories in being barred from association with their former Democratic colleagues Any good Repnhlican paper ought willing " 10 accept this latter task as being irDst pleassnt duty.-Commere al Appeal.

CONVENTION AUGUST 10 TO 12.
Memphis, Tenn. July 7--As the time

Memphis, Tenn. July 7-As the time draws near for the annual meeting of the Cotton States Merchants Associa- tion Convention, the attention of the whole South is focused or Memphis, where one of the largest gatherings of merchants and business men ever assembled, will be held August 10, II and 12. Last year 270O attended and this year promises to break that rec ord, as the entertainment committee anticipates an attendance of at least 1000. Every merchant and business man,as well as farmers and planters should attend this meeting.
 Of course the business end is the paramount feature, but there will be various forms of amusement furnished to break the mopotony of routine work and the hard thinking problems of great moment, which will be under discussion. The man who does not learn will decay and the firm that fails to keep abreast of the times will go bankrupt. All, more or less, have vexing problems. This is the place to learn how to meet and overcome them.
 The principal speaker will be Curtis M. Johnson and others of local and national fame will be there loaded to the guards" with good thought and pertinent suggestions. There will be plenty of good talks and all will be worth the time of any business man.
 There will also be big fun to the side of the meeting. For instance the leading feature will be an old fashion ed barbecue. Mayor Paine is on the committee to pull off this big stunt and while it could not be successfully done in Payneless manner, yet there will be no painful after effects. There will be plenty to eat and drink and a jolly good time for all, including theatre party and Southern League base ball games. Other novel enter tainment stunts are being planned for the guests.
 A boat ride by moonlight on the Mississippi river will be one of the "cool" receptions offered. This trip will rival a journey on the famous Hudson and while the Father of Wa ters may not be as picturesque as the Hudson, the jolly party forming the cargo will make up the difference. The dance and cabaret on the roof of the Falls building will be one of grand poem of sublime ecstacy. If you dance, you'll be there. And if you can't trip the light fantastic, you will enjoy the good music and watch the pretty girls do the many graceful stunts. Feasting on this picture of beauty will make you for get the lateness of the season, the boil weevil and everything else that has proven a nightmare to you and de- prived you of the joy you should have The Cotton States Merchants As- sociatien is sending out broadcast invitation to all merchants, business and professional men, farmers and planters to be their guests in August. You cannot spend three days more pleasantly and more profitably than by attending this meeting.
 Will you come? Of course you will

What Should Capital Earn?

The problem of fair return on cap tai daily comes up in the lives of peo- pie who place their money in the sav- ings banks, buy mortgages, bonds, or invest in stocks. A financier relates that ''high-grade electrical utility sold its five per cent bonds in No vember, 1916, to yield the investor 4.9O per cent, while in May, 1920, it sold similar six per cent bond to yield the investor 7.03 per cent" The Su- preme Court of the United States in 9 decision last year, observed that ''it is a matter of common knowledge that owing principally to the World War, the costs of labor and supplies of ev- cry kind have greatly advanced, and it is equally well known that annual returns upon capital and enterprise the world over have materially in creased so what would have been a proper rate of return for capital in vested in gas plants and similar utili- ties a few years ago furnishes no safe criterion for the present or the fu- ture."

Bungling Burleson

Postmaster General Burleson has ruled that all employees in the postal department on reaching the retire ment age of sixty-five years shall be automatically retired or separated from the service. Congress wrote into the new law that if such men de- sire to remain in service and their eheifs certify that they are doing ef- ficient work, they may be retained on the pay roll. Burleson would precip- atively fire everyone who has reached the age of sixty-five.

The Filipinos And The Irish

There is lot of noise about the freedom of Ireland floating about Washington, but occasionally some one is attracted to the responsibility that rests with America concerning it's own Philippine pledges. And that is al- ways more interesting than Great Britain's affairs. Here is what one writer, former Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner, says about the progress of the Filipino cause: "There is nothing more certain today than that the Fili- pinos are slowly but surely winning American public opinion. and they are doing it, not by loud threats or with charges of bad faith against America, but their tact and diplom- acv."

The price of each paper to the public has been Increased, and Mr. Hearst's two-cent Sunday Times is now five cents. while Mi.

each citizen has one vote, He has a

true that in the case of the president,
