Old Love.

1t seems but a f W short days ago
We strolled by the sea,
Reading in each others eyes
Lies deepest mystery.
Old love, old love,
l often dream of you
Sleeping out your long sleep
Beneath the violets blue.
You loved sunshine and the light
l loved shade and gloom;
You loved lilies pure and white,
l dark pansies bloom.
Old love, old love,
I often wonder why
I, world-weary, still must live,
While you-you had to die.
At times. dear. when the daffodils
Are drenched with April rain
feel your presence near me,
And our souls commune again.
Old love. old love,
/ know YOU wait for me
Among the lilies that will live
Through Eternity.

THE WHEREFORE OF 1T.

With but few exceptions the newspapers
of the state have accepted the nomination of
of Thomas E. Watson for the United States
senate with good grace. Most Of them
however, are offering explanations of
his surprising strength and overwhelming
election. In the opinion of The News it is
not difficult to determine There are a num-
Der of reasons, chief among which is
that large majority of the people of the
state, as has been clearly and emphatically
shown by the last two elections, are oppos-
ed to a league of nations as insisted upon
by President Wilson. Before accepting the
covenant they want every safeguard nee
essary for the preservation of the sover-
eighty of this government and the integrity
of the constitution thrown around it. The
people also have become tired almost be-
yond endurance of federal dictation and in
reference in the political affairs of their
state. They believe they are capable of
electing their own public officials, and run
ming their own conventions without instruc-
tions from Washington Resentment of the
unseating at the San Franchises convention
of the regularly elected Georgia delegation,
whereby the wishes of two-thirds of the
democratic voters of the state as expressed
through the ballot box and in convention
regularly called by the party machinery, al
so contributed in large measure to the re-
suit. Again, the people of the state have be-
come weary unto disgust of the eternal
wpangle between Atlanta politicians and
newspapers, and decided, at least for the
time being, to quit pulling their chesnuts
out of the fire
In this connection it is opportune to sug-
gest that it is time to stop the idiotic and
inane habit some newspapers and people
have Of calling all those who disagree with
them reds" and "bolsheviks." The. tenden-
cy of some politicians and their partisans to
call everybody who has the temerity to have
opinions of their own traitors and rascals
has been carried to an extreme.
The News preferred one of the other can
didates for United States senator. Now
that Mr.. Watson has won the election fairly
under rules fixed by the democratic party
we shall throw no obstacle in his way, but
wish for him a successful career and useful
service to the people in the high Office to
which he has been called. For quarter of
a century or longer he has alternately been
courted and praised, feared and anathema
tized-at times prosecuted if not to say
prosecuted-by the political factions of the
state, according to which he favored at thf
time. Now that political fortune, after many
years of struggles and vicissitudes that
would have long ago crushed any man OF
weaker mold and less determination, has
perched upon his banner we trust it will
have mellowing and steadying effect, AND
that the people of his state and country will
be given the full benefit of his unquestion
ed ability
Senator Watson has had many trials and
tribulations, politically, but the old saying
that no lane is so long it never turns has
again come true

Two factions among the women are now
debating the question as to who is respon-
sible for the suffrage victory. As matter
of fact it was neither faction. Women are
entitled to vote now because a majority of
the men in the country gave them equal
franchise rights.

1t has cost the taxpayers one hundred
million dollars month to carry the rail-

allowed they ought to not only give better
service but also make money.

A POOR PROGNOsTICATOR.

Editor Rainey, of The Dawson News,
who himself holds public office, inquiries
if the time will ever come when a poor
man can run for United States senator
or governor There's no bar against run
ming, but getting elected is another story.
Governor Dorsey is an example of poor
man who will be elected, because The
people desire to place their stamp of APP

try was at war.-Greensboro Herald

In the light of what happened Wednes
day one is constrained to believe that oul
Greensboro friend is not a shining light as
a political prognosticator
If Governor Dorsey, who is a good mar
and has host of friends in Georgia, had
been elected it would not have disprovec
our statement that poor man has but lit
tie chance of being elected governor OF
United States senator. He had influential
personal friends and political alignments

legitimate expense of his campaign was met

Then again, early this fall. we re-
call how DR.. Ladd's right hand man,
imagined he had superior
wisdom and that he washable to turn
prophet, so the papers came out with
big headlines telling US that our sex
pert grain grader advised IS to hold
the wheat for higher prices, and this
at a time when it was p~ossiblest TO get
$3.50 for our wheat. We don't need
to dwell upon this, it's a tender spot,

would resign and go back to South

side ofrthe case, have come toethink
that they are The real progressive
countries Of the world.
Maybe q few facts and figures
may throw some light on the situa-
ton: The public debt Of New yea
land in 1914w as the largest OF any
government, in time Of peace, being
$4,000 per capita, or 100000 for
a family of five. With population
of 1,152,OO0 their government cost
over s57,000,O0O or $50 per capita.
Now compare this with the "big''
business state of Minnesota, with
a population Of two and a half mill
lion people, with a state government
expense of s2l, 100000, or about SO
| per capita. In addition it might be
interesting to note that the public
debt of New Zealand was $500, 0OO,-
OOO,scompared with less than $4,000
900 for Minnesota, or $50 times as
much. per capita.
1t might also be interesting to get
some information from North Dakota
people, who have received letters
from relatives in Australia. Jake
Eastgate of Larimore gave to the
public letters from his cousin, who
farms in %Ingleside, Merriton, Aus
tralia, written in 1917, Here are
sowe quotion; ."The crop was good
for 80 bushels an acre, but the gov
eminent takes It at their own price,
they have given us 70 cents a bushel
for last years crop, +. o. b. shipyard,
it takes about 10 cents a bushel to
ship it. For this years crop we are
getting 80 cents a bushel, with the
promise of more by and by. But it
is all labor government here and they
do just as they like with everything.
Eggs are only 8 cents and butter. 10
cents and we can't get IL cents a
pound for fresh pork. The labor
government takes all our wheat and
gives us what they like for it and
the same with WOOL"
Possibly this might explain why
our old friend Walter Thomas Mills,
don't go back to these countries,
which he claims are the most "pro-
gressive governments" in the world.
Possibly good old U. S. A. isn't so
bad after all. If Walter T. loves
that country so dearly, why does he
stay here? We will try and do our
best to worry along in some way if
he sees fit to leave. Here's your hat

Does it warrant a continuation of
the brand of reform government that
we have in this state? We would at
most venture the assertion that If we
had been left to ourselves and allow
edsto run our own state government,
we could have done almost as we'll.
Also as a reward of merit, we sup
pose that it is only proper to now

It is still fresh in mind painfully
