The place is at the county court

The time, from 1880 a. m. to $50

The campaign to determine the is
suance. of bonds by the county OF
Glynn, in the sum of $175,OOO for the
construction of the highway to st. ST.
mon, practically ended with the tre-
mendous mass meeting at the city hall
Monday night.
OF course considerable work was
done in the interest of the big move
ment yesterday by the general com
mittee and on all sides evidence of this
fact was manifest. For instance, all
of the street cars of the City and SUI
burban railway were placarded with
tremendous signs, taking up both
sides of the cars. reminding the yot-
ers of the days election, Many auto
mobiles, those privately owned and
those in the taxi service, carried large
banners reading; vote for bonds and
prosperity" In the business section
Of Brunswick yesterday today's cleo
tion and the issues involved was the
main topic of conversation: at local

unprecedented in past election his

ways done.

work has been spIendidly organized
from start to finish and has perform

believed, win bring full results when

The surest safeguard for honest
dealing can best be established by ex-
punging the fictitious and iniquitous
legal tender value from money, and
in that way make the greed for the
dollar impotent to exploit and en-
slave.
Diodorus. the learned Sicilian Greek,
truthfully stated: "If you know how
to use money. it will be your servant;
if not, it will master, will enslave you. :"
That is what causes the troubles of
our farmers, working people, and the
majority of our business men to-day.
Instead of understanding the nature
and proper function as we'll as the nee
essary control of money, they have
been as blind as bats concerning it.

In 1871, after the close of the Fran.
co-Prussian war. France was enabled
to pay her indemnity in about a year
time. Prussia did not compel her to
disarm. did not take away most of her
shipping, most of her rolling stock,
most of her milk COWS, and did not
demand heavy deliveries of coal for
long period of years. nor subject her
to other exactions. The Prussians may
have been a bad lot. but it is said that
they got ahead of Napoleon ILL.,, who
had intended to start a war against
Wilhelm |.
Vernon Parish Democrat., 1921-03-31

All of the fool-catcher institutions
by which we are surrounded, coerced,
deceived, and exploited, are resultant
of the dishonest, man-established mon
opoly system, that almost compels man
to build up his business on the high
price graft plan of operation, to pay
the landlord and the money-lord.
Men and women are directly the
slaves of their own lack of information
and indirectly the slaves of the exist
ing iniquitous financial system. The
average woman has not tried to think
much, because it has not paid her well
to think. So we find Mrs. Jones, whose
husband is able to secure for her a
bare living, looking upon Mr.. Smith,
who is worth half a million dollars, as
a man very superior to her husband.
But could she know the whole truth
concerning the business morals of the
two men, she might reverse her opin-
ion.
In trying to please, to protect, and
to meet the expectations of those they
love. men and women are tempted
nay, almost coerced by a system that
denies justice. to do things for which
they can find no moral sanction,-
things which they could easily and
morally accomplish were they living
under an honest system of finance,
production and distribution.
Vernon Parish Democrat., 1921-03-31

The high rates on the railroads are
inaugurating quite an effective block
ade between the different sections of
this country and has resulted in a
slump in business, detrimental to the
best interests of the people.
AS an illustration a truck farmer at
Sanford, Fla. shipped a carload of
400 crates of lettuce which sold for
$339.46. The freight alone amount
ed to $339.75, the icing charges ST.
SO, war tax $l252, carriage $27.93,
and comPission to the receiver $33.-
95. When the total expenses of $491.- :
IS were paid, the farmer got bill for
$l52.l7, due the commissionman.
And this is nothing compared with
some other cases. A grower at Lar
edo, Texas, sent a carload of 756
bushel baskets of spinach to New York
which brought only $467.35 on the
market. The freight charges alone
were $63747 and the total expenses
amounted to $720.66. He not only
got no compensation for his labor and
expense in growing and shipping the
spinach. but he still owes the commits
sion man $253.3l for the balance of
the expenses.
Hundreds of other instances of the
kind could be cited, but the foregoing
is sufficient. Talk about killing the
goose that laid the golden egg! The
railroad companies have done gone
and done it; they are worse than the
proverbial bull in the china shop. But
greed is Unsuitable; it knows no limit.
And when it dominates a class, it will
urge them on to destruction.

The tactics of the American Fedora
ton of Labor are leading to some sur
prising results. The general officers
of the United Mine Workers of Amer

ernor of Alabama in the coal strike in
that State. The governor denies to
the miners the right to organize and
the right of collective bargaining. con-
