Altho' the majority of the New
York assembly which has put bunch
of socialists on the grill are republi-
cans, we do not think any genuine
American, especially one who had
relatives or friends in the service dur
ing the war, can find any fault with
their action. The socialists, both as
individuals and a party, have a right
TO oppose war; they have a right to
try to prevent the country by reason
ing from going to war; they have a
right by the means set forth in the
constitution to obtain control of the
government and shape its actions to
their will; but when the people decide
against them and the nation goes into
war, they have no right to try to
handicap the government, thereby
adding to the loss of life among and
burden of taxation on their fellow
citizens. Yet that is just what they
tried to do, and what they are being
tried for trying to do, and we have
heard very few people around here
say they were being treated with in
justice.

DEVELOPMENT IN DIXIE

Read the January 90 issue of the
Manufacturers Record. No one can
afford to disregard the facts that are
set forth therein. AS lead in the
Record states, the article in this issue
of the magazine unfolds "the story Of
progressiveness in highway develop
ment of the South, a development
that will touch in an intimate way the
lives of every man, woman and child
in the South, not only by enriching
their lives through greater opportuni-
ties, religious, educational and social
ly, but also in a material sense by
stimulating a greater progress and
development of the South's resources,
of mine. forest and field"
Plans provide for the spending of
$40O 100000 in the construction of
highways in the South. The state of
Arkansas, for example. has road
program of $1OO,OOO.OOO; Alabama has
$4,000,000 road program for 1920,
and proposes to vote upon state bond
bond issue of $25,OOO,00 Traditional.
Georgia will spend S12,600,0O0 on
roads during 1920. Kentucky is plan
ming to spend $15O.OOO,OOO, at the
rate of 100000 a year. Maryland
with present investment of $30,0O0,-
900 in highways, plans to spend $780,
100000 in extension. Mississippi is
providing for $15,O0O,OOO in road con-
struction. North Carolina is working
on plans to cost over $15,0O0,0O0. Ten
nessee will spend 81, 100000 during
the coming year. Texas will spend
1925, 100000. Virginia will spend
$i2,OOO,OO DIN 1920. and West Virginia
plans to spend $15,OOO,OO DIN 1920.
| Think of what all Of this means
Can any section of the country, with,
out good roads. compete with those
sections that are spending so many
millions to provide permanent anC
more permanent highways?
Says the Manufacturers Record
"Good highways lead upward to sue
cess; bad highways lead down tc
ruin! Which will you choose?"

Hundreds of men guilty of moon
shining have been turned loose by the
Florida courts in the last two years.
Why they have been turned loose has
been no fault of officers of the law, but
of perjured witnesses and prejudiced
jurymen. Witnesses who the officers
had positive knowledge had purchased
moonshine, when put on the stand
would testify that they didn't know
whether the stuff they bought was
moonshine or not. Of course they
were lying. and every man who tes-
tlfles in such manner should be ar
rested for perjury the minute he
leaves the stand AS for prejudiced
Jurors, any man who favors the GRIM
inal element will try to acquit a
moonshiner, murderer or a gambler,
one the same as another. 1t is a trick
often played by lawyers in criminal
practice, when they take the case of
q man against whom the evidence is
strong to try to get on the jury one or
more men who they know are in SYM
pathy with the criminal element. This
iS not honorable. No matter what the
case of his client may be, a lawyer
should always try to obtain the best
citizens In the community for jurors
Every criminal has a. moral and legal
right to counsel; eveey lawyer shouldr
do his best to acquit his client, no
matter how guilty his client may be-
