MUZZIJNG THE SENATE.

Washington correspondents intimate that
the emergency tariff measure passed by the
house to aid the farmers in the present period
of declining prices will be talked to death in
the senate Attempts to do so may be made.
If the public pressure is sufficiently strong it
will not The large democratic vote the bill
received in the house proves that it is bus
mess instead of partisan matter The rural
interests of the south are as much concerned
in the farmers salvation as those of the west
are.
The News has no respect for organized
to influence legislative action,
such as loading up congressman with stock
kilograms and letters which are nothing more
than formal ideas of general central body.
But it does believe the honest and individual
of their case to the senator's OPP
posing the pending legislation, written by
farmers from their viewpoint, would receive
attention. 1t is useless to send such communl-
cations to senators from agricultural states,
for. as a rule, they are for the measure. The
opposition from northern republican senators
is entirely selfish. The support of democratic
southern representatives indicates like sup
port from many of the democratic senators OF
this section. But if influence is to be brought
TO bear upon senators to shut off debate and
vote on The measure it must be applied to all
who vote on the bill, and must consist OF facts
and be devoid of formal and organized propa-
ganda.

Georgia-made goods who can estimate the
enormous encouragement and benefit to those
manufacturers who have cast their lot IN the

The foregoing question which has just been
propounded by business man, not manu-
facturer, is calculated to start the average
Georgian, who loves his home state, along
new line OF thought,
The question might be put differently with
good effect.
Why should Georgia people purchase else
where the same kind of goods as are manu-
featured in Georgia when they can be bought
just as cheaply in the state, and when the
state needs the work and also the business!
And if every merchant selling goods IN
Georgia were not only to cooperate with
manufacturers of the state in exhibiting their
goods but in informing their clientele that
they handle Georgia made goods, who can

SHAKING THE MOUNTAINS.

Recent earthquakes in South America
changed the face of the earth. Huge noun
+ains sank down. Lakes and rivers disappear
ed Scientists have not studied the results,
but the simple people living in the region OF
the CONFUSION know what took place They
have no instruments for recording the earth
moves; none for measuring the changes III
the mountains But they know they can see
the tops of mountains now from the same
point from which they could not see them
before, the sunken mountains having been
the intervening object. No better evidences
could be had The simple natives are not con-
cerned in scientific controversies or record
ing scientific facts, Tor they know nothing OF
either. But they see the changes made and
know how great they are.
The surface OF the earth has been chang
ed by two processes. One is slow evolution,
OF which the advance southwark OF the Dor
der OF the glacial zone and its retreat when
it disappeared are illustrative. The other is
convulsive and is illustrated by the fitting OF
the earth's stratas by volcanic forces which
convert level plains into mountains like Jor-
relic in Mexico which rose in a brief time
from a plain to a burning volcano. Few of
these commissions have taken place in the
memory Of man. Fewer have occurred within
the life of the present generation. That gives
a special interest to the CONFUSION which
changed the Andes in their heights and
shook them on their foundations The earth
has been looked upon as fixed in its develop
ments Yet the final changes in its crust
have not taken place.

FINDS LONESOMEST PLACE
Traveller Says 1t Is on Island Off the
South American Coast.
From the Milwaukee Journal.


Asked to name the lonesomest place IN the
world traveller once answered, The island
of Tristan dAcunba, far off from the coast OF
South America. Its population is seventy-s1X,
and it is visited by vessel only once IN two
years"
But the traveller was all wrong. Isolated,
remote limited in society, the island may be:
But why lonesome? The last thing we heard
from it was that all the inhabitants were
working together to fight dangerous plague
of rats When people can get together Tor
common purpose they aren't lonesome.
A man told us the other day that the lone
soonest place he ever found was New York
city, where he didn't know soul and his be-
ing there didn't matter to any one. And ne
was right but he set about changing that
condition, and he didn't find even New York
lonesome very long.
For the lonesomest place is no question OF
geography or population or economies. You
don't have to be lonesome in little town II
YOU care enough about any one to be friend
w. And New York and London are only the
worlds biggest little towns" And you don't
have to be lonesome on Tristan dAcunha
when there are people there ready to welcome
an addition to their little society. The lone
soonest place is always the human heart
which hasn't learned how to rearch out to 9TH
er human hearts in the sure knowledge that
there will be something in common, that II
it has affection to spend and loyalty and truth
and friendliness there are these things IN re-
turn waiting to welcome it.

Why the Tax Rate Is Lower.
From the Triton Gazette.


SAYS The Dawson News: "The News re-
Gently noted that Monroe county had done
the unheard of thing of reducing its tax
rate, and now comes the Triton Gazette
with the information that Tiff county did
the same thing, the reduction being 81 on
the 81 ,000 That's remarkable in these times
preston, and our Tiff county neIghbors
tate them, and beseech them to pass the
word around how they did it,
That is easy. The board of tax assessors
for Tiff did their best to comply with the re-
quirements of the state tax commissioner, and
bring tax values in this county up to the
average fixed for the whole state. This was
done for two reasons: Because it was right
and just that the property owners in Tiff
should pay their proportion of the state S
taxes and because the values in Tiff, as in
ninety per cent of the other counties of the
state, were too low. The average returns of
for taxation in Tiff county in 1919
were 20 per cent of the value of the property;
in 1920 they were SO per cent OF the value OF
the property-the states average was fixed
at IS per cent. Because of this increase in
returns it was possible for the county COM
mssioners, in making the tax levy, to reduce
the rate. The increase in Monroe county was
% per cent, and that probably accounts for the
reduction in the rate there, although Monroe
is not yet up with the state average We
note that in Terrell values were increased
from Is to % per cent; had the board of as
SCISSORS there gone to IS per cent, as request
ed, we are sure a reduction in the tax rate
would have been possible

WHY NOT ECONOMY

Why does not some statesman take short
cut to fame by proposing economy or re-
duction of expenditures instead of seeking to
invent new forms of taxation? That is not
a new thought, but it is worth considering at
this time when new ways OF spending the pub
lies money are being devised daily. The
concern of nearly every one who has anything
to do with legislation seems to be how to get
more money and spend it. Many times plans
for spending money are laid without any
plans being formulated for getting the money
that is to be spent. The national treasury
has recently incurred a tremendous debt,
debt so large that unborn generations will
be called upon to pay part Of it. Prudence
would suggest that before make any large
new expenditures an effort be made to reduce
already large debts and their burden of in
terest
Taxes and more taxes, revenue and more
revenue, is the cry and urge. All the cunning
and ingenuity of man is brought into play
to find means to impose taxes The need OF
the statesman's hour is painless taxation.
Just as though any scheme OF taxation might
be devised that would enable the consumer
to escape. As in national government so
it is in our state and lesser governments. The
demand is for more revenue, more money to
spend, all along the line. States and cities
have the utmost difficulty in living within
their incomes, and most OF them are far from
successful in doing so. We are the richest
people in the world and yet we have munic-
ipa state and national treasures barren OF
current funds and overburdened with strang
Cling debts Occasionally some one talks
about the necessity OF economy and retrench-
ment in the management OF the publics mon
eys, but likely as not he is rebuked as moss
back, a reactionary, back number or some
thing worse. We used to have watch dogs
of the treasury" in former day when pub
lie expenditures did not begin to approach the
staggering figures OF today. They were not
popular at that time and were anathematiz-
ed But watch dogs of the treasury" appear
to have gone out of fashion Who ever hears
of one in present day congress or legisla-
ture?
"Other sources Of revenue might be devel-
oped." That is the short cut to renown in leg
isative halls just now But how long can
the dear people stand the upward trend of
taxation? How long can they endure the ex-
isting burdensome taxes? There must be
limit somewhere beyond which it will not be
safe to go.
Why should not all governments, of low
and high degree, shorten their programs
bit, or at least hold them in allegiance, and
give the humble taxpayer chance to catch
up with the procession?

THE CRIME WAVE. "

situation of fighting with its back to the wall
The industry OF crime is altogether too safe
in this country, it is apparent Too many
murders, burglaries and robberies go unpun-
ished Something is wrong with the ma
chinerv of the law, or with the spirit OF the
people toward the enforcement OF the law
when criminals have little fear OF the law
and when so many of them escape apprehen-
sion and punishment. Society is altogether
too tolerant when it bears with patience the
situation as to crime that exists at present

safe harbor for criminals. The notion that
the law is for the law-abding is altogether
too prevalent The law is not so much tor

1t seems that the reduced tax rate did not
help the Tiff county taxpayers, after all. The
assessments on property were increased,
which in all probability made the tax burden
Just as heavy as ever. 1t is camoufage
which is being generally resorted to by state
county and municipality after the tax levies
have reached the constitutional limits. 1t is
general the case that the increased assess
ments more than offset the reduction in the
