Justice to Georgia Demands
the Ab7est Senator Securab1e

I'm a cogent discussion of the Senatorial
race the Pike County Journal declares,
after stressing the Importance OF
Georgia's having able representation dur
ing the next six momentous years:
"There is man whom many of us
have been bitter against that can
measure up to the requirements. He
has been tried and found to be one
of the ablest men in the Senate, and
the author of the most constructive
Legislation since the war of secession.
While many of us have opposed his
policy in part, yet we must remember
that thousands upon thousands have
been in agreement with him
This man commands as much respect in
the Senate as any there, and is at the
forefront of all important legislation
before that body. We sincerely believe
that for the good of the party we
should have an able man to represent
us. that all animosities and dislikes
should be laid aside, and Hoke Smith
returned to the Senate We do know
that he is one of the ablest men in
the Senate, and we can't afford to
have any other kind during these peril
Gus times"
This strikes to the heart Of, the matter.
Georgia,s basic interests demand the most
efficient Senatorial service to be procured.
Issues of great practical moment are pend
ing and others equally important are In
prospect-issues touching the vitals OF
business, agriculture, industry and all 9TH
er realms of common concern. The prob
lens to be solved, the pitfalls to be guard
ed against the opportunities to be grasp
ed and utilized call for the highest order
of competency. It would be perilously fool
ish to entrust such duties to a reckless
hand or to one Impractical and without
distinctive strength. ~.-S
No such Senator it will be granted could
have produced the useful and beneficent
legislation which Hoke Smith has pressed
to enactment or have averted the dangers
which he has put to rout. No such Sena-
tor could have protected the cotton grow
ers' right against all manner Of hostile
Influences. No such Senator could have won
Federal Reserve bank for Georgia over
keen and powerful contestants. No such
Senator could have initiated and secured
the passage of the Agricultural Extension
Act and those other epoch-marking meas
uTes in behalf of education and progress
which Hoke Smith has to his credit. No
such Senator could meet the needs of the
years ahead with the experience and skill
and. effectiveness of him who is now at
the helm. ...t'.. -....
Common sense and patriotism alike coun-
sci the selection of the man best qualified
for the office and best able to serve the
State and her people. By every reasonable
consideration, as the Pike County Journal
contends, Hoke Smith is that man. Where
fore in justice to Georgia petty factionism
should be put aside and loyal forces all
united for the common good.
Will that increased Pullman rate, to go
into effect next month, apply to the tips to
porters?-Norfo1k Ledger-Dispatch.

A RE you a murderer?
N You'll say you are not
IA What, you who are a re-
spectacle citizen and an up
holder of law and order, commit the
foul deed for which low-browed
felons are hanged!
What, you with your high ethical
sense, taoke a fellow creaturet's life!
What, you who sicken at the very
sight of the red stain on a bandage,
dip your hands in human blood!
The idea is so preposterous it is
amusing.
Nevertheless, are .>su a murderer?
You may never have shot man,
tor stabbed woman, or. choked a
child to death, and yet you may daily
kill the thing that alone makes life
worth having to those about you. To
you can commit against an individ-
ual. 1t does not take long to die.
The agony is over in few minutes,
but the spirit dies hard, and when
you kill that you have to do it by
slow torture.
Therefore, I hold that the muir
derers who Stay their victims quick
ly with shot or knife are a million
punishment than those other MUIR
derers who break the hearts, and
crush the souls of those whose hap
piness lies in their hands, and whom
they doom to suffering through
long years.
Thou shalt not KILL" is the first
of the commandments God gave to
man for his guidance, but it does not
mean merely that we shall not take
human life. 1t means that we shall
not kill love, Or faith, or hope, or
ambition, for when we do we Stay
something far more precious than
life itself.
So I arraign you Mr.. Good Man
at the bar of conscience and ask you
again, ARE you a murderer?
Have you killed the joy Of living
in your home?
When you married your wife was
a gay, high-spirited girl, bubb1ing
over with laughter. She sang ali
day long, just because she was so
filled with gladness, and because
she found the world so bright, and
beautiful, and happy Have you
made of her a quiet, sad-faced wom-
an whose eyes know tears Cftener
than her lips do smiles? Have YOU
killed her joy in living?
When your key rattles in the latch
of an evening when you return
from work, does sudden strained
silence fall. upon the house? Do the
children hush their prattIe and stop
their play? Does everyone in the
household cringe when you speak, as
whipped dog does when it expects
taught them that you always blame
and never praise? Have you killed
the joy of living for your children

Decatur s Remarkable Gro,Uth

TIME remarkable increase in Decatur's
population, amounting to more than
one hundred and forty-nine per cent,
Erings hearty qualification to Atlantians as
we'll as to her own enthusiastic citizenry. The
two communities have many interests in
common and long have been so cordial in
their neighborliness that each feels a vital
share in the others good fortune. 1t is evil
dent, moreover, that a large number of the
nearly four thousand inhabitants added to
Decatur during the iast decade went thither
from Atlanta; and certainly all comprehen-
sive reckonings of Atlantas population must
take that Of the DeKalb county capital, now
numbering six thousand one hundred and
fifty, into account.
Decatur's growth to this goodly figure is
attributable to her rare advantages as a
home center. Healthful climate, clean Skies
spacious environs, efficient municipal service
educational facilities of the highest order
and social atmosphere unexcel1ed commend
the town to the most discriminating iudg-
ment. 1t is characteristic of the community's
spirit that at recent referendum on bond
issue for building a new high school and
extending the waterworks not one vote was
cast against the constructive measure Such
an attitude toward civic and social interests
is the unfailing omen of continued progress
The same census announcement that tells
OF DecatuT'5 increase credits a gain of one
hundred and ninety-four and seVen-tenths
per cent to Manchester, forty-one and six
tenths to Brunswick, twenty-one and eight
tenths to Thomasville, and substantial incre-
ments to other Georgia towns. All these ad-
vances reflect prosperity and enterprise of
which the State may justly be proud.

he had not approved and would
never approve disparity between
awards given men who served on
ahore as compared with the men
who went to sea" Admiral Sims,
he asserted, probably advocated high
awards Tor many officers who
served on staff duty ashore and few
awards for officers who went to sea
because most OF Admiral Sims
duty IN the navy has been on shore"
No Precedent Established.
Turning to the second funda-
luental difference between his views
and those OF Admiral Sims, Secre-
tary Daniels said that many Other
admraIs Of the navy and the Knight
board OF medal awards had estab-
Ilshed precedent that such officers
or ships tOrpedOed or ruined should
be decorated whenever their conduct
was mcritorious and reflected credit
on the service. He read at length
from accounts of naval actions dur
ing all of the wars the United States
has been engaged in to support his
contention that the policy of decor
atlng brave officers, even though
they lost their ships, was established
early in American naval history and
always had been followed.
Concluding his testimony with
denial OF Admiral Sims charge that
navy morale had been shot to
pieces through the method followed
IN awarding hOnors,' the secretary
declared that there was nothing the
matter with the morale Of the navy
except shortage OF enlisted men
and insufficient pay for the officers
and men left Making plea for I'M
mediate legislation that would in
crease navy pay to a status at least
comparable with the pay given men
