SUCH IS POLITICS.

The Hugh Dorsey organs and the Hoke
Smith organs are quoting the same newspa-
pers in support of their candidates. They
reprint particular sentence or paragraph
from and article in a contemporary comment
ing on the campaign, and frequently it is
misleading and often actually misrepresents
the newspaper that is pretended to be quoted.
1t not only is unfair politics, but puts an
honest and self-respectng editor in an absurd
and ridiculous, not to say embarrassing, po-
sition. 1t is to be regretted that this is true,
but, nevertheless, nearly everything, both
as news and comment" which appears in
the organs of the candidates should be taken
with very large grain of salt. Nine tenths
of it is propaganda and utterly unreliable.
The people are entitled to know the facts.
Telling falsehoods to injure a candidate is
mud-slnging, and all good men should dis
parage the practice. And more real harm
is done by undeserved bouquet flinging than
by mud-slinging. The latter will be holly
resented and this tends to bring out the
truth, which should be scattered broadcast.
Flatteries stultify the sense of justice Their
unfair and untruthful use have placed many
an incompetent in public office.
Instead of all the time kicking or bowling
do your little part to keep the ship of state
afloat. We clasp in our hands a little pad
dle-the ballot. 1t will do more for the old
ship than wind or steam or sail 1t is a
sacred gift

NOW FOR A HOSPITAL.

For some time past movement has oeeh
more or less actively under way for the es-
tablishment of hospital in Dawson. The
doctors of Terrell county have discussed
the urgent need of such an institution, ana
at one of their recent meetings they patfl-
otically pledged themselves to contribute a
sum of several thousand dollars to the en-
terprise. The Dawson Chamber of Com
MERGE has announced its intention to be-
gin before long an energetic canvass IN
the county for the raising of funds to sup
plement the physicians subscriptions
This work ought to receive the hearty
and generous support of every man, wo-
man and child in Terrell county. Surely,
there could be no more worthy and lasting
monument to the benevolence and liberality
of a community than an institution for the
alienation of sickness and bodily suffering,
but beyond any altruistic motives county
hospital would pay for itself many times
over. from an economic standpoint, by re-
storing to their normal activities men and
women who might be otherwise lost to the
community life and upbuilding
The News believes that the people~ OF
Dawson and Terrell county will rally to
the support of this movement. 1t is an OPP
portunity for public service and progress
which we cannot afford to pass by.

They Make Georgia Famous.
From the Macon Evening News.

We who live here in Georgia are so &C
customed to the beauties and the resources
of the state that we do not appreciate them
so much as does a stranger who is unaccus
toned to the riches of our soil and climate.
There are number of things for winch
Georgia stands pre-eminent throughout the
world. The Georgia watermelon and the
Georgia peach are so perfect that no one can
thinking of the state from which they come
think of the state from which they come.
Georgia cane syrup, Georgia sweet potatoes,
Georgia asparagus and Georgia pecans are
in a class entirely by themselves. Even
the lowly collard-which sold here last
winter at fifty cents each-is cited in the
seed catalogues as the equal of the finest
cabbage, and it is known distinctly as the
Georgia collard.
California and Florida are lands of sun
shine, and they grow in abundance those flow
ers which thrive in the sunshine. But there
are hundreds of varieties which require rainy
seasons and a touch of the breath of winter
to bring them to perfection, so it may be
said with safety that we have a greater va
rety of flowers than any other state IN the
union.
Our material resources are SO great that
it would be idle to undertake to enumerate
them, but nearly all the aluminium used IN
the United States is mined in Georgia; the
kaolin is the finest in the world, and the
long-leaf pine has no rival for building pur-
poses
Last of all-for we repeat that we attempt
no exhaustive enumeration-it has been
found by analysis that Georgia water is the
purest in the world.
In an abstract sort of way we have our
civic pride, but we rarely stop to reflect that
our state is supreme along so many differ
ent lines.

FAIR PRICE MARGIN.

If the fair coal margin profits plan adopted
by Attorney General Palmer had anything
in it except the usual promise it would COM
mand the support of the people. There is
no disputing the fact that the public is be-
ing robbed by the coal profiteers. The prices
and profits cited by the producers in their
own defense are those on contract coal. But
the coal supplies are being bought and are
controlled by spectators who pay the pro-
ducers more than contract prices. The pro-
ducers and buyers are profiteers and their
profits are passed on with the commodity to
the consumer. The attorney general has APP
pointed a commission which will determine
what is fair profit. That will be accepted
by his department as prima facie evidence of
honesty when the sales are kept within its
bounds. When the sales get outside the
bounds they will be regarded as profiteering
and those making them liable to prosecution.
The difficulty is the attorney general is
long on plans and short on performances.
He makes glowing promises of prosecutions
and ends in miserable failures to prosecute.
Meanwhile the profiteers continue to reap
their harvest of loot at the expense of the
consumer. There ought to be thousand or
two profiteers wearing prison stripes. If
there were the profiteering element would
be taken out of prices and the people would
get the benefit

VISION AND COMPREHENSION.

Much is said and more written these DAYS
concerning what statesmen, or politicians,
term vision By this they mean the ability
to comprehend the future But many of
them confuse comprehension with vision.
Vision comprises that which is seen other
than by the natural eye hence, it is imagi-
nary or a creation of the fancy. Compre-
hension means the ability to determine the
meaning of the future. The two words,
while used INTERCHANGEABLE in modern states
manship, are not interchangeable except by
making craftsmanship interchangeable with
fantasy. If one has vision as a statesman
it means he has conception of the future
founded more in fancy than in fact If he
compartments the future it means that he is
able to determine its possible actualities, and
to understand what will take place before
the designated future is reached. The
country has been surfeited on vision. 1t is
weary of the policy of permitting the imagi-
nation to run wild in constructing future
which cannot be realized, and to bring about
which means changes and efforts sometimes
at variance with the facts of both the pres
ent and the future. Vision pictures a con-
dition and tries to make the picture ma
terialize. Comprehension starts at known
facts and from them reasons to a conclusion
of what the future will be- If the future is
comprehended it may be changed only by
changing the present so that the influences
which work out the future become different
from what they would be were the present
unchanged. Vision is an exhibition of tht
mental ability of the dreamer, the prophe
and the poet. Comprehension is the exhi
bition of the mental ability of the reasoner
the logician and the practical individual
Vision has brought disaster to those wht
have adopted it. Comprehension has brough
success to those who have used it.

ARE THEY so STUPID?

From Harper's Weekly
big Demand for Hops Puzzles Dry
Agents" says the New York World. 1t may
be true. If SO, the "dry agents" must be sim
ple-minded jackasses. What were hops used
for and why were they in great demand before
January II, 1920? They are used for the
same purpose now, and are in demand for the
same reason; and the purpose is not to make
dried apple pies or flavoring for ice cream.
Are not the "dry agents" capable of under
standing the significance of the juxtapostion,
in a thousand shop windows, of packages of
hops and of malt and of bottle-corking ma
chimes? Do they suppose that it indicates
a revival of ping-pong?

THREE MORE VICTIMS.

Joseph n, Brannen, insurance man,
John Colquitt and his son, Frank aged
IA. were killed near Andalusia, Ala,
early today when an automobile was
struck by Central of Georgia freight.
Charles Colquitt probably is fatally in
jured.-News Item
Thoughtlessly the blame for railroad
crossing accidents is generally placed on the
railroad train, but the blame almost uni
versally rests on the automobile driver. The
driver of an automobile should know where
he is driving when he is in the vicinity of
railroad tracks. He has chance to know,
He has a chance to stop and listen; also
to look This moralizing will not bring the
dead back to life but these accidents should
come to an end.

From the Chicago Tribune
The interstate commerce commission is

years it was a negative organization. It's

AUTOMOBILE PROSPECTS GOOD.

From the Lincoln Journal.
Automobile people can look forward with
complacency to the coming advance in rail-
road rates. Long distance touring will be
more popular than ever and the use of trucks
in freight hauling will be enormously stimu-
lated. The automobile industry now only
needs to surmount the fuel hurdle and it will
have the greatest era of prosperity it has
ever enjoyed.

Speaking of increases in railroad wages
and freight rates and passenger fares and
Pullman charges, the public would like to
know why the railroads carry so many dead
head passengers. The public has to pay for
carrying all these people, who travel for
pleasure and personal profit, and who have no
more right than anybody else to be carried
free.

REPEAL THESE TAXES.

From the Lincoln Journal.
If the government is to get by special taxes
revenue of $1000OO,0OO a year out of the
railroads under the new rates the quicker
those taxes are repealed the better. The
rates themselves will be enough of brake
on industry without the added pressure Of
special taxes. The tax on sleeping car tick
cts might be proper exception, though that
is not certain
