County administration. including all
purposes as shown in last item. shows
an actual decrease. The increase in
actual cost of roads and bridges main
tanned directly by the county shows
only an ordinary increase. Payments
to drainage districts and towns are
largely special @lcyies, the county treas
urer acting as collection agent and
paving amounts direct to the districts
or towns. This leaves the large in
crcases as being in educational, in
the sum Of $2,632,45576 and to the
state in the sum Of $l.250677.75.
The above compilation is illuminat-

statement, often reiterated, that coun-
ty governments were running wild
and needed curbing. 1t also shows,
conclusiycly. that the increase in
county payments has been almost en-
tiroly accounted for by the great in

FRIDAY AFTERNOON. NOV. IL, 1921
rHE ELECTION

The result of the election in the
State and nation at large is most
gratifying, and proves that the false
promises held out BY the Republican
party a year ago are resented by the
people. IN Carrofi county Il must be
confessed, the result is not, for while
Mr.. Stone was elected, yet. tile defeat
OF his associates on the ticket is d
severe disappointment to all true
Democrats. They were men OF the
highest type and entitled to the sup
port OF their party.
But there is some announcement,
when II Is recalled that last year
Blakeny carried the County by 2i2i,
Harding BY 1889 and Weller by ilG,
while this year Mr. Gordy loses by
only $3.50 in spite Of the large Demo-
cratic stay at home vote. This is n
substantial gain and shows what can
be accomplished by organized effort
and all lovers Of the old marty, whose
principles will he vital after the pres
ent generation has passed away. viii

which was conducted by the organI-
cation, for the ticket This fact will

felt Indifferent
There is but ono thing for the Dem

that Is to atrengthon its organization

1T would be wen II all the labor lead
ers in this country have this clear
vision Of what strikes cost.
There may be conditions SO adverse
to wage earners that they are justified
in striking. But to use The strike as a
common weapon defeats It's own ends.
A strike is essentially the same
thing as making war, When you make
war, you try TO force some other
group OF people TO accept your poin;
Of view. But it is terribly destructive
and usually hurts most those who re-
sortsto the weapon Of force. @They
that take the sword shall perish with
the sword" the Holy Scripture said
and the same thing has proved true
many times with the strike,
II wages are increased through
strikes the gain does not come out OF
capital. but IS added to the price Of
goods and services. II goods and SER
vices thereby are put M the mass OF
the people can not buy them freely
and unemployment results
The unemployment Of the year 1921
was the direct result Of the strikes Of
1919 and 1920. which put nm prices OF
goods so high that the public could NOT
buy them, so that the factories had e.
shut down. II the labor troubles 81 the
former years could have been settled
by arbitration, prices never would
have gone so high and business would
have run along without much break
Public sentiment has forced the
railroad union chiefs to call of their
proposed strike. II they are tempted
later to quit work in protest az the
DEGREES that may be made by the rail
road labor board. they VIII do we'll to
remember that the public feels that
the men who work In any such vital
industry as railroading should give
continuous service and submit at
grievances to fair arbitration.

already seen. The question OF
Unemployment is really more serious
than those in comfortable homes rea-

Gar more than towns and the coun-
try. It the men and women, who have
been drawn from tile country to the
city by high wages, would return g
the country with whose work they
are familiar, there would be sufficient
