and eliminate profit entirely.
This labor war has been fought
now quietly with pamphlet and
pen, now boisterously with all
the blare and crash of strike and
arms, for generations. Each side
has infrequently won a decisive
victory, has seemingly crushed
the "other side" Always such
victories, whether won by capital
or labor, have proved unlasting
and the fight had only to be
fought over again sometimes
with the same, sometimes with
different results.
Industrial war is no different
than national war in that it is i'm
possible for a conquest" to be
permanent. The only thing that
will end national war is broad
cncd sympathy, a patriotism that
does homage to humanity as
whole. The only thing that will
end industrial war is a similar
broadcned sympathy, a readiust
ment that will effectually broad
ell the interests Of all who live by
the fruits Of industry, giving the
laborer a more immediate inter
est in the success Of the corpora
ton which employee him. TAX
ing away from employers the in
centivc for ruinous exploitation
of the laborer.
Too long have single nations
sought for themselves dominance
OF the world. Too long have
single classes of world sought
tor themselves dominance of in
dustry. Capital has no more
right to dominate industry than
has labor The world at large
can not profit through the abso-
lutte dominance of either.
AS long as captains and lieu
tenants, or colonies" of industry
refuse to arbitrate and cooper
ate with the privates in the ranks
OF industry, the industrio! y
can not successfully MAKE t.
larger conquests that civilizations
demands. The world must inn
prove through the betterment of
the condition of the rank and file
OF humanity; it does not help to
further accentuate the difference
between the great and the small.

AN COMFORTABLE

PROSPECT--ln England 5000,
GOO railroad men, miners and
transport workers iwll probably
be on strike next week. They are
striking against reuduction in
wages OF the coal miners. In
Germany workers have been car
rying on a desultory labor war
for some time, leading to sharp
outbreaks last week. All over
America is labor unrest. The
machinists union, for instance.
has thirteen strikers on it's hands
right now, according to one OF
the grand lodge representatives
here last week.
The whole trouble revolves
around the professed inability of
the corporations to pay the scales
of wages which were paid during
government control or operation
of industry. The coal mines Of
England and the railroads of
America were both subsidized
during the war. The private
owners can not now make prof

HAVE THEM BACK NEXT


Hill County closed yesterday
with the annual Spring com
mencement exercises. A numb
er of young men and young wo-
men graduated from the eighth
and ninth grades, the limit of
most rural schools. Most of
these boys and girls are now thru
with school for life. Their edu-
cation as far as schools are con-
cerned, is "complete". They are,
as far as the State of Georgia and
County of Ben Hill are concerned
ready and well equipped to fight
LIES battles, to make themselves
substantial prosperous citizens
and their state a substantially
prosperous commonwealth. Most
of these boys and girls who grad
uated yesterday now are better
equipped with the tools of the
mind that education gives than
were their parents when their pa
rents finished school. But they
are not as well equipped as they
ought to be.
The Fitzgerald boy or girl will
not finish school this year until
the middle of May. lie has the
opportunity of going to school
through the eleventh grade. Why
this discrimination? Aren't the
country boy and girl as valuable
to Georgia as the town boy and
girl? Is it not as important to
Ben Hill County and to Georgia
that the country boy and girl be
as well educated as the city boy
and girl?
Certainly agriculture is as i'm
portant to the public welfare as
any urban occupation. And it
takes as much brains and as well
trained brains to succeed in agri-
culture as it docs in any urban
occupation. The schooling should
be supplied.
Ashton school is to be extend
ed two grades this fall. The grad
yates of this Spring can get that
much more education. Lynwood
school is going to be improved
by the levying OF special tax,
too. Rural school conditions
are steadily improving, When
all who live outside the towns
and cities appreciate the virtue
OF cooperation and consolidation
then the country boy and girl
Will have the same advantages
as those in town.
1t is going to be a hard pull for
some farmers to keep their child
rem in school this fall and next
winter. There will be a big
temptation to keep them at work
to help recoup the losses of the
last year. But a crop produced
with wife and child labor is going
to be sold lat child labor prices.
1T always has been and always
will be.
1t would be fine if all the pupils
who finished their years work
Friday could be back in school
next fall, 1t would mean a lot
for them and for the county and
state. Have them back next.
