VIII the Legislature Dare Pass 1t?

There is pending a bill to make the sessions OF
the legislature biennial that is session of sixty
days, every two years; will the general assembly
dare pass it. No!
Governor Hardwick promised to abolish useless
Offices and there are number of that kind for
which the people pay will he do it? Well to has
credit be it said he came as near carrying out his
promise as well as he could; he refused to fill the va
cancy in the office of attorney to the State Highway
Commission and has asked the legislature to abolish
Others; but will they? Not much.
Somebody has promised to reduce taxes; will they
do itY No. not to any great even perceptible ex-
tent but it should be DONE and it could be done if
only men had the nerve to tackle the question.
This might be done in several ways
First cut cut out all unnecessary Offices, and there
are several Stop wasting money on these men
whose services are not necessary.
Second, cut down the sessions of the general as
sembly, 60 days is long enought any time.
Keep all local legislation out of the general
bly, at all times Usually the members who are al
fected control this anyway; why not let the Judges
Of the Supreme Court control the recommen"
dation of the grand jury to the mayor and coun-
ell if for a city
Consolidate the offices of Tax Assessor, with that
of Tax Collector, and pay all officers fixed salary
and abolish the fee system as it now exists-Carrol

10 the world at large, it is the venerable inventor
OF the telephone who has passed on. To a much
smaller group, it is beloved educator teacher of
the most difficult pupils in the world who has left
the sphere of his activities
DIR. Bell whose labors in science and invention
brought him fame and fortune did not cease his ben
efits, to humanity with the invention of the tele-
phone. Before that eopchmaki invention and drl-
ring all his long life, he has been teacher of the
deaf and dumb, student of means to enable the
dumb to learn to speak, and the deaf to learn to
hear, either through instruments or by lipread-
ing.
The whole world talks by telephone, nor gives a
thought to the man whose genius made it possible.
But no deaf learns to communicate with his fellows,
no dumb persons learns to speak, but pays mental
tribute Of grateful appreciation to the humanitarian
scientist, inventor teacher and educator who spent
his life in the ameOraton of their msfortunes and
on whose teachings the whole modern science of
speech taught to the speeches. may be said to rest

Speeding Mania Continues

Driving cars at breakneck rate of speed contin-
ues in and around Marietta in spite of the efforts
OF officers to regulate it. Several citizens have men
toned this fact to the Journal during the past few
days.
Some of these speeders drive right down the mid
die OF the street or road giving consideration for
others or cross roads. Some citizens complain that
they have to drive out of the road to avoid acct
dents and do not feel safe on the roads with their
families in their cars
This situation should have the careful attention
of the officers and volators Of traffic laws should
be penalized so they would remember that others
have right to the public thoroughfares.

To prevent Typhoid Fever you must understand how it
lis caught did arrange the method of transmission

LEAVING sANro DOMINGO.

Conditions in santo Domingo have been under investigation, and announce ment of the result would have been made at the time the committee report ed concerning Hayti but for the fact that there were negotiations underway } at the time which 1t was not desired to interrupt by having 1t made public. But President Harding has now stated that It is the policy of the administra- ton to withdraw our forces from San 10 Domingo, that plan for doing so has been agreed upon and that it re- mains now only for it's ratification by the people of the republic in order to have t put into effect.
 It means the retirement of all occu- s pational forces and the placing Of .the responsibility for the conduct of the , government in the hands of Dominicans ! which is in keeping with the desire of { those people Under the plan as nego. 7 tiated the government of the island will be turned over to the provisional gov ernment by the Americans and the DO licinE of the island will likewise be placed in their hands, the Americans tc get out completely just as soon as there has been drawn up and signed a new treaty between the countries.

THE STRAW .voqE.

There isn't an election of importance but what some effort is made to get 8 straw vote concerning the outcome. There are times when results are in keeping herewith and there are times when 1t is quite to the contrary. Straw votes depend npon the care with which to them They interest even though they may not convince.
 Perhaps more than the usual amount of interest will attach to the effort of the Literary, Digest to sound the senti- ment of the people regarding the irn- portant question of, prohibition. That is a matter on which people have more pronounced views than the same ones would in regard to political candidates. It is matter of nationwide import ance.
 Even though the. eighteenth amend ment has been enacted in the manner prescribed by the Constitution there are those who have felt that such matter should have been submitted to the peo- pie. Likewise there are those who look with much favor upon the wiping out ot the saloon, but believe that there should be modification of the yolstead act
 By the ten million ballots which are being sent out by the Literary Digest there should be an interesting. insight gained into the views of a large body of American citizens concerning these matters. Safeguards, to get a. fair ex pression from the people would appear to be takens It is-sa a big and expensive undertaking and 1T anywhere near one tenth of the population are Interested enough enough to give. expression t, their views. the result .should give. 1nuci light on one of the big questions of 10 day. s.a1= o ssl zs

Crepe de. chine and georgete are not by any means to be despised these three materials forming the bulk of the trousseau lingerie this season.
 The trimmed garment is a favorite and laces from Noarmandie from Ire land to say nothing of exquisite Val enciennes play their part.

There hre the requirements of the public which are entitled to consideration. It has been made evident that there has been interference with the men who are de. ? eirous of working, that there have beer attacks made upon railroad property which can in no way be justified and that the failure of civil authorities tc provide the protection which the situa. tion calls for makes it necessary to us, seeA measures as the government deemi neeessary to uphold the indisputabI Fight Of those who want to work.
