DEMOCRATIC SUCCESS.

Those who took the trouble to make inquiry as to the
prospect for Democratic in this county Saturday
agree that practically all soreness among the Democrats
has vanished and is the consensus of opinion that Nor
gans Democratic majority this year will be bigger than
it ever was.
Democrats from all the county report that all Of
the Democratic nominees will receive practically all the
Democratic vote in the county and the enthusiasm grow
fight for the whole ticket and all is in perfect harmony
There is reason why every Democrat should not
vote for all the nominees and the report from the various
sections of the county is that they will do so.

Jailed.

Jalleu.
Cartersviile nestles close between
the points of two outlying foothills,
and It is a delightfully."- lazy and old
fashioned town. For the most part II
is made up of gabled old brick houses,
which have pretty settings of green
lawn, roses, honeysuckles and trees.
Even In the small business district,
the streets are lined with trees. They
have electric lights there, and water
mains, a common school and high
school, a courthouse, Jail and a
theater.
1t was q little after nightfall when
Dale and the other two men rode
through the shaded streets. Dale noted
that the people they met under the
swinging lights spoke cordially and
with marked courtesy to his compan'
ions. II was very evident that the Of
flcer and Major Bradley were In high
standing In their home town.
Sheriff Tom Flowers drew In before
a hitchlng-rack that stood In front OF
the courthouse, great old wooden
building with clock In Its tower.
"We'll dismount here" said he.
They did. The major took the rein

Dale thrnked Bradley, and turned
away with the officer. They walked a
short block and entered low, square
building Of brick and stone of which
the windows were small and high and
barred with iron. Dale knew that Il
was the Cnrtersvllle jail, and his heart
sank In spite of him. Just as death
by violence had been entirely new I,
him, so also was this entirely new L
him.
Flowers took n ring Of heavy key

A WARNING UNHEEDED.

Time and again the Courier has warned the people
that unless the illicit sale Of liquor stopped that rag
edy would follow At different times in the past it has
called attention to the tragedies that would have hap
pened and held out the warning that some ones life would
be taken if the traffic was not stopped.
The tragedy Saturday night was caused wholly by
liquor If the parties had been sober there would have
been trouble The parties dealing in liquor can be
apprehended, and if they are not it matter of time
only when some one ese's life will pay the forfeit.

WHY THE ARGUMENT?

There is an argument on between Rev. E. G. Mann
and the Lexington Herald in regard to the proposed
repeal of the parmuue gambling machine in connection
with the tracks. Why the need of argument? If
it gambling it is wrong, and if wrong should be abol
.ished. >s.'
The Heard's contention is that pari-mutue gambling
is better than the old kind of hand book But what the
of either? seems to that the sensible way would
be to abolish all kinds of hand books

Why People Should
Buy Highway Bonds

State Treasurer Stong IS con-
fronted with a dilemma owing to
the fact that the bonds for $2,UOO,-
600 authorized by a vote OF the
people of Colorado for road build
ing cannot be sold at par owing to
the low rate of interest. The law
provides, however, that they must
be sold at par, and the state treas
urer has issued an appeal to the
public to purchase these securities.
Mr.. Stong has set worthy exam
pie by subscribing for vi ,ooo
bond himself. The rate of inter
est is 5 per cent, with no state or
federal lax to pay, and the bonds
are issued in denominations OF Soo
or greater according to the desire
of the purchaser. Following are
most convincing reasons set forth
by MIR. Stong why the public
should invest in these bonds:
Constructing new highways and main
tanning others is essential for the de-
1eiopment of the state, and the state
highway department, believing that the
bonds could be sold, entered into agree
ments with contractors covering con-
struction and maintenance work in each
county Of the state.
Anticipating eatly returns thru the
sale of the bonds. thousands of men
have been employed by both the state
highway department and commissioners
of the various counties to temporarily
repair damaged highways caused by
heavy rains. During the past three
months more than one hundred bridges
crossing streams in many counties OF
the state have, on account of recent
floods, been destroyed, causing detours
TO be made of from two to fifteen miles.
If the Colorado STATE highway de-
partment and county commissioners
thruout the state are to carry out their
program of construction, the citizeus of
every section of the state must respond
to an appeal to purchase the bonds.
A condition confronts the state thru
the fact that thousands of its citizens
are now out of work, and it remains for
other thousands to decide whether the
state shall provide employment for the
unemp Dyed by the purchase of high
way bonds.
If two thousand individuals or agen-
cies, such as good roads associations, au-
tomobile clubs, commercial clubs, banks
and other financial institutions purchase
only one 81 900 bond, Colorado can con-
tinue the construction of its highways.
There are over l40,0 automobiles and
gasoline motor driven cars of all kinds
in the state, and if 10000 owners OF
cars will subscribe for one 5000 bond,
six thousand men now employed will
continue on the pay roll and from two
to three thousand more ultimately added
thereto.
County commissioners are asked tc
begin an active canvass of their comfy
for subscriptions. Citizens of Colorado
and all organizations thruout the state,
let US employ the unemployed and con
struct our highways.

DIAMOND IMPORTS
OF U.S.. INCREASE
London Syndicate Fixes Prices
And Controls SO Per
Cent of Mines.

CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-Diamonds i'm
ported into the United States in 1890
were valued at SS9.OO0,OOO, accord
ing to statistics compiled by the
National Bank Of Commerce of New
York This was nearly double the
importations of 1919 and more than
triple those Of 1918.
With such an enormous quantity
Of diamonds pouring into the coun-
try, the natural inference might be
that prices Of the gems would de-
crease. Not So Diamond prices are
ixed by the London Diamond Syndi-
cate which controls the output of
practically all the South African
mines, and these mines today are
the source of SO per cent of all the
diamonds in the worlds markets.
The syndicate announced recently
there would be no reduction in the
price Of diamonds and il necessary
the output of the mines would be
reduced to maintain present prices.
From this decision of the monopoly
there is no possible appeal. The
world must pay the trusts prices or
90 without diamonds.
one important change has taken
DIace in diamond impOrtatiOns since
the outbreak of the war. A far
larger per cent of uncut stones are
brought in. Before the war the cut
ting of diamonds was almost eX-
cIusiveIy done in Antwerp and Ans
t,rdam. The war crippled the in
dustrv in Europe and many diamond
cutters sought refuge in the United
states There is now a consider
able diamond cutting industry in
mis- country. confined chiefly to New
York.
The war established The United
states as the principal diamond
buver among the nations. This was
due to industrial prosperity and es-
reciaIly to high wages that made
working people the mainstay OF the
diamond trade. Despite recent wage
rcductiOnss jewellers declare dia-
uord buying has not fallen of to
any appreciable extent and dia-
rronds are still the most popular
gems bought by the American
public.
