There is getting to be too much leg
islative control over the industries OF
this state. There is such a thing as
legislating corporations to death.
While we sometimes feel that be-
tween the corporations and the people
there is a vast gulf, still we are all
mighty glad to have manufacturing
and other enterprises, and again only
a small portion of the corporations
are against the interests Of the people
generally. The legislature has al
ready effected short working hours
per day, and somebody has now in
troduced measure in the legislature
to further shorten them. This is
nothing short of silly. The pay OF
employees will be cut in proportion
to the work performed. Anyway the
country ought to work more instead
of less. There are some legislators
who have always had the idea they
could run other peoples business bet
ter than the owners can. We believe
in fair deal for everybody.

The 'high takers" are resorting to
every possible subterfuge to keep up
the enormous expenditures inaugu-
rated during the war. They now rea-
hze tA&t the people will absolutely
refuse longer to pay the taxes like
they have in the past; consequently
all sorts of other taxes are being pro-
posed, such as income, gasoline, soft
drink, and other so-called painless
extraction taxes. Experts have been
hired from distant state to tell the
people just how it can be done. But
the people are tired Of being told.
They are not only tired of paying
the high taxes, but they are sick and
tired of the enormous waste in the
state government. There are boards
and commissions galore, all wanting
big salaries, and huge expense &C
counts. 1t won't work. The war is
over We must now come down to
earth. About four-ffths of the COM
missions and boards must be legis-
lated out of Office. or somebody is
going into the elections this summer
in very much embarrassed state.
With fully half of the counties of the
state producing only a fourth of
normal crop of cotton, the people are
in no frame of mind to be argued
with.

He added that this applied not to all

of old "Uncle Bob Kennedy, an old

dead, who used to say he carried
some sassafras root with him and
drew tea off the same piece all dur
ing the war, and the longer he used
it, the redder and stronger the tea
became. He said hard tack and a

Tom Watson's' congressional in
vestigation" has left the original
idea, it seems. 1t started out to in
vistigate illegal executions; now the
committee is investigating almost
everything else. And none of it will
amount to anything is our prediction.
When the investigation is completed
everything will be about as when
it started. No crimes are likely to
be fastened on anybody, and people
will still believe the crimes were COM
mitted or not committed as they did
before.
