THE AUGUSTA POSTMASTER
SHIP

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found the announcement Of John G.
Arnold Of his candidacy for the posi-
ton of Postmaster Of Augusta. We
believe it will be cordially received
and overwhelmingly endorsed by bus
mess men and patrons Of the office.
They will feel that service, efficien-
cy and character should be the deter
mining factors in an issue of this
kind. They respect and admire this
clean, able, courteous and efficient
young man, who in % years of splen-
did work has moved up through
every grade of the postal service to
his present position Of Assistant
Postmaster.
With his mastery grasp of every
detail of this great branch of Gov
ernmcnt service, his executive abil-
ity. his tact. his loyalty and his
stainless career, Mr.. Arnold is ide-lly
fitted to give us the sort of admins
tration that will measure up to the
RECENTLY expressed ideals of President
Harding and Postmaster General
Hays.

cONScRIPT THEM ALL

When the next war comes, if there
is to be a next war, universal con-
scription may make a mighty appeal
as the proper method to be adopted.
1t surely will if experience in this last
war counts for anything.
In recent address Secretary
Weeks declared himself in favor of
mobilizing men, money and manufac-
lures under CONSUMPTION law. He
would conscript all men between the
ages of eighteen and sixty and set
them to doing that which each might
be best fitted to do. Under that
regime men would work in shipyards
and they wouldn't be paid exorbitant
wages while other fellows were sent
to the front without material recon-
pense. Secretary Weeks undoubtedly
is right in saying that had such a
course been followed we would have
avoided many Of the difficulties we
encountered and some Of which we
have not yet settled.
But what tremendous engine of
oppression that could be made! We
went far in the last war in placing
authority over many in the hands of
the few and with regard to conscrip-
ton that authority was remarkably
we'll used. If stretched to cover every
walk of life with all the opportunities
that it would afford we we'll might
have apprehensions respecting the
results. But are men to be conscript-
ed to fight while others are permitted
to remain at home and graft? Shall
we put men into the trenches, expose
them TO poison gas, send them to the
depths in submarines and to the
heights in flying machines and then
bride those not sent to do the chores
at home? Surely not without loud
murmurings. If we would avoid those
we best do what we may that there
shall be no next war.

Az, THERE'S THE RUB!

eff New England has performed
one service which was greater than
another, it has been to lead in free
ing men from the dominion of force
imposed from without, and bring
them under the dominion of that rea-
son which speaks from within. Its
teachings have released man from ev-
cry servitude, but laid on him every
duty"
Ay, there's the rub! When man is
relieved of every servitude there is
laid on him every duty. There is
much in the passing events to con-
firm the impression that man is res
tive under the burden and when
someone suggests way in which he
may be relieved he often jumps at
the bait without stopping to look for
a hook concealed therein. Not in
that way will be given credit to his
bringing up.

SUGGESTED BY THE OCCASION

Since the Wise Men came out of the
East following the star in quest of
the child bearing gifts and inspired
by visions of the future of their race,
Christmas has more and more be-
come the occasion when thoughts
turn to the children. Few are the
minds so thoughtless or hearts so
hard as not to wish generous share in
the Christmas cheer upon the child.
And visions of the future of the
race, when have they ever made
greater appeal to mankind than now,
nineteen hundred and twenty one
years after the three wise men fol-
lowing the star came to the manger
in Bethlehem?
1t is not for themselves that the
wise men of the world are today en-
deavoring to assure the future
peace such as the world has never
known. They respond to a tremen-
ume with the years, ever finding new
and wider ways of expression; and,
consciously or unconsciously, its pur-
pose is to make the world safe for
the race, for the future of the chill
dren and the children's children. To-
day, leaders of thought, speaking in
every tongue, have come to recogni-
tion that the way. the only way in
which this may be done, is that eX-
emplified in the life of him to whom
the three wise men came. The wise
men Of all the earth now recognize
the star, they realize and avow their
belief that only through peace and
good will in the hearts of men may
peace apd good will come to the chill
dren of men.
Here is the warrant for good cheer
and rejoicing surprising all tradition.
1t is ours, this opportunity, and we
must not neglect it.

The angels voices ring.

WHY NOT TELL THE TRUTH?

EXtravagant accusation helps the
accused. The impression was gain
ing ground that Governor Reilly was
a misfit in Porto Rico so loud was
the opposition. One of the strongest
protests was that Reilly favored resi-
dents of the United States as against
the natives of that island, which
seemed to show lack of judgment as
well as of justice that is, it did be-
fore somebody published the facts.
Senator King of Utah introduced a
resolution calling for the informa-
ton. 1t passed and here is the re-
Spouse to it: on taking Office Cover
nor Reilly found in the employ of the
government 40 Continentals and SOIL
natives. Since that time the CONT
nentals have been reduced from 40 to
IS and out of six changes, major ap-
pointmerts, four were residents of the
island, and, according to the Presi-
dents reply TO the reSOlutlon IL Is
learned that Governor Reilly has made
20 appointments since taking Office.
Out of these all are natives of Porto
Rico save two who have lived there
for a quarter of century and are
representative citizens and have held
office before.
Perhaps Governor Reilly is not a
good governor, but if so why don't
his opponents say so and not lie
about him?

Editorial Comment
"Once to Every Man and Nation

VI l<Cu6CisI
No more pregnant utterance has
been made concerning the Irish
treaty than a single sentence that Ar
thur Griffith dropped in his quiet
voice so casually and simply that ii
escaped the pens of many Of the cor
respondents who sat picking and
choosing among his words for the SEN
sational and important. Moving his
resolution that the treaty be ap-
proved, he incidentally asked the Dali
to remember that if it rejected
that convention ireland would then
be fighting with the sympathy of the
world against her" and slipped on to
other things.
But that slight word is crucial
What the sympathy of the world has
meant to Ireland is beyond estimate.
1t has been so potent as to make the
world forgive Ireland injuries which
lit WOULD have forgiven no other coun-
| try. 1t was by design, not accident,
| that the Easter rebellion was planned
for the hour when France had her
back to the wall at Verdun, claimed
so as to draw to Ireland noes
British endorsements: an. it was
not Ireland's fault that France, beat
en- to her knees, did not slip under
the Crown Princes knife in that
| week: Yet France has forgiven her.
In the United States even Eng
lands friends sympathize with Ire
land Writers like Sir Philip Gibbs
so back home saying that the strong
est pleas they have heard in America
for justice to Ireland have come from
men who love England. Some years
ago an American girl created a Juror
at banquet on the other side by
plagiarizing Elizabeth Barrett
Browning's great line about italy and
calling the green island 1.-The sweet
heart of the nations 1t is possible
that De Valera and his friends do not
see how instantly that worldwide
sympathy will be alienated If now.
with peace in her hands, Ireland
casts it aside and declares for war?
And such a war--a perpetual Vine
gar Hill! Instantly England will
pass from the dock to the accuser's
place; from being in the wrong among
even her friends to being in the
right even among her enemies, and
Ireland's friends abroad will shrink
to the little herd of Cohalans and
John Devoys. Is the change worth
making? Let the Dali ponder.

Having held national safety con-
tests the Highway Transport Educa-
ton Committee is turning to the
grading of the manuscripts and re-
ports a veritable deluge of essays by
pupils. The officials, however claim
that since these contents were begun
there has been a noticeable decrease
in the number of school children in
jured by automobiles. Be this as It
may, and we hope they are not mis-
taken, If the heads of school children
are too perplexingly filled with con-
tests they may get run over in an
absent minded moment.

The chemists are to make a study
of the human body to ascertain what
are the chemical processes that make
up the life of man. This would seem
to afford some better basis on (which
physicians may work, hut presumably
those processes would vary under
changed conditions. For instance it
may be that H2O will be found to be
more abundant in the human body
since the Volstead law.
