On the Verge of Great Prosperity.

In the opinion of Secretary of Labor Da-
Wis, who has just completed survey OF the
work of his department during the past twelve
months, the times are bright with promise
TO the American wage Garner and to
American industry alike. He believes
that with two of the years three major
strikes-those in the coal and the textile in
dustries-settled the country is on the verge
OF great prosperity.
More than 3,500.000 men who were idle a
year ago have been put to work. Unemploy-
ment, according to analysis OF the depart
ment's figures, is hardly greater at the pres
ent than during the normal periods OF pros
perity There is always a floating population
of approximately 100000 wage earners out
OF employment. These figures do not include
the striking railway employees, but apply only
10 wage earners who have been deprived
temporarily, through no act of their own, of a
means of livelihood,
All returns to the department point to a
coming scarcity OF labor, both skilled and
unskilled How soon the country will eXpe-
rience a labor shortage depends upon sew
sral factors, labor department officials state
chief of which is the unsettled rail situation
When that is adjusted good times, apparently,
have a clear road ahead.
The task of putting 100000 men back to
work has been accomplished by American
industries, the departments figures disclose
with reduction of not more than per cent
IN the rate of wages paid. In other words
the wage cut has averaged during the past
twelve months less than cents on the dollar
There has been no wage panic" such as
was feared year ago.

The New Pension Commissioner.

In naming Hon. John W. Clark, OF Rich
mond county, state pension commissioner
Governor Hardwick made splendid appoint
ment. In the days that tried mems souls he
followed the flag of the Confederacy as a
brave and gallant soldier and in time OF peace
he has served Richmond county as sheriff
and the city Of Augusta as postmaster, filling
both positions efficiently and satisfactorily.
uumber of other deserving men, among them
old veterans, were applicants for the place
and it is no discredit to them that they were
not appointed. The governor felt that
he should reward a personal and political
friend who had stood by him in many hard
fought campaigns, The new pension commits

Temperance Day.

Editor Dawson News: The Temperance
Day bill passed by the Legislature, is now a
law The date set for observing the day is
March 18th. The object of the day in public
schools is to teach the children the history
of our temperance work and workers and to
familiarze the pupils with the principles of
citizenship and obedience to law.
What is the true definition of temperance?
The answer was given by Xenophon, who
lived in the fourth century B. c.:
Temperance means, first, moderation
in healthful indulgence; and, second alb
stnence from things dangerous, as the
use Of Intoxicating wines"
To this has meen added the testimony
OF many other thinking men of all the ages.
Ex-Presdent William H. Taft says concern
ing strong drink
ITO the man who is engaged in
sponsible work, who must have at his
command the best that is in him at its
best-to him | would with all the en-
phasis that | possess advise and urge
leave drink alone absolutely"
William E Gladstone, the great English
statesman, made this strong assertion
The ravages of drink are greater than
those OF war, pestilenCe and famine COM
bined"
The careful Investigations of the Com
mittee of Fifty. who inquired into the his
tory of 1902 convicts, show that intemper-
ance was strong factor in the downfall Of
over 5000 Of them. A mind cannot be sound
when the brain cells are undergoing con-
slant injury. The reports OF the commission
ers of various insane asylums show that
about one-fourth of the men who are insane
are so because of the effects of strong drink

REMARKABLE MEMORIAL.

Wichita Eagle: AT Valley Forge, Pennsyl-
vania, there is rising, slowly and beautifully
one of the most remarkable memorials in
America 1t is the Washington memorial
chapel and its accessory buildings. There is
a wonderful artistic chapel, complete now
save for a tower and chimes, and there are
to be added Washington museum, an as
sembly hall and a large banquet room. The
architectural merit of the group will be wor-
thy OF the project, and the situation is most
suitable Valley Forge, where Washington
and his barefoot half-starved army of colo
NAL troops spent the winter of l777-1778, GER
tainly is most fitted by history to be a shrine
OF American patriotism. During the darkest
hours of American history the little army
and its devoted commander here suffered
worse than death for the cause of American
independence, while a few miles away, over
in Philadelphia, General Howe and his Of
fcers were having the times of their lives.
and were being encouraged and entertained
by a host of Americans who were anxious
to make friends Of the children of iniquity
lest the revolt fail In the bleak woods near
Valley Forge it is related, several persons
during that trying winter came upon Wash
ngton at prayer Far from his troops and
his people the troubled commander knelt in
the snow and talked with God. And here
the chapel and its memorial accessories are
being erected to preserve the memory of
those dark days, to the enoblement of the
coming American race.

A Lusty Youngster.

The writer was recent visitor to Seminole
county, one of Georgias baby counties, and
was agreeably surprised at the evidences of
enterprise and thrift to be seen everywhere.
The fields were white with cotton; corn in
plenty was ripening for the harvest; there
were peanuts, cane potatoes, hogs and cat
tie, and comfortable farm homes denoted en-
terprising and prosperous people. Donaldson
vile. the county seat, is the trading center
for wide territory and is growing rapidly
Mercantile establishments occupy large and
imposing store houses, strong and conserva-
tive banking institutions have modern build
ings, and handsome homes make the residen-
tial section attractive. Seminole county has
more than justified the wisdom shown in its
creation OF all the new counties there is
perhaps not one superior to the gem in the
extreme southwest corner OF the state. 1t is
one in which its people and all Of Georgia
San we'll take pride.

EurOpe's Wet Nurse.
From the Kansas City Star.

Americans will be little surprised to learn
that soviet Russia is dancing around on the
edge of Europes new war crisis watching
had from that country the people were
standing in line waiting for bowl of Amer
lean soup.
OF course, we don't begrudge $4,000, 900
spent to feed a country too exhausted to
work, but if we were feeding Russia out of
spoon all winter merely that she might put
i'll the summer fighting there seems some
question as to whether we picked the right
subject for charity. The soviet, it is now
said, has new visions of conquest. 1t is de-
batting whether to have a nice war with Po-
land or Roumana or both. 1t is expectanty
watching the development of the crisis in
central and southeastern Europe, confident
that it will produce a fight of some kind and
determined not to be cheated of share in it.
II Russia has to go to war again may
we ask if it expects us to hold the baby while
it's gone? And who's going to warm the
milk for Austria's baby if she goes march
ing, too? The same wet nurse we suppose
No wonder Europe takes to war so joyfu1y
1t has nothing but the fun OF fighting while
no doubt IS a gay pastime for countries that
have no domestic responsibilities; Russia and
the rest OF them may be pushing a good
thing too far. We don't want to be unknd
but II they're going to jump up from their
breakfast OF American groceries over there
and rush off to war it would serve them
right If we requested them to take their in
teresting families right along with them.

Answered..

The unwarranted accusations and mslead-
ing insinuatons heaped upon the prison de-
partment OF the state by two or three eX
convicts, the Macon Telegraph and Represen-
tative Perryman. of Talbot county, have been
emphatically and decisively answered.
First, the five eminent superior court judges
who were appointed by Governor Hardwick,
at the request of the prison commission to
make thorough investigation into condi-
tons at the state prison farm found nothing
to substantate the charges OF cruel treat
ment Of prisoners and Encouragement. They
reported, iii effect, that in some particulars
the physical condition of the plant was not
in as good a state of repair as it should be
and that some of the buildings should be
enlarged and otherwise improved. This these
Judges found, was due to the failure of the
Legislature to make needed appropriations for
the work The prisoners, according to the
report of the judges, were comfortably cared
for and humanely treated. The legislature,
when it convened some time later, also re-
fused to be stampeded by unfounded and SEN
sational charges, and paid Scant attention to
number of alleged reform" bills that were
introduced by Representative Perryman. And,
now, the people of the state have passed
their judgment and rendered similar YER
dict In the statewide primary just held Mr..
R. E. Dawson, member of the prison COM
mission who was seeking reelection, over
whelmingly defeated his opponent, who pitch
ed a campaign of abuse and misleading state
ments on the allegations emanating from the
sources above mentioned. Mr.. Dawson car
ried IFS or more counties, with one exception,
perhaps more than were carried by any other
man who was voted for in the election.
The people of Georgia keep informed as
to public matters and believe in fair play.

Sinews of War.

The income of the national organization
of the United Mine Workers of America for
the fiscal year ended September, 1921, &C
oording to the report of William Green, sec
rotary treasurer, was $4,346, 5ll.6l. That is an
immense sum, and it gives to the officials an
immense power. For one thing it enables
them to employ the highest legal talent The
union expends large sums in attorneys fees.
For example, Mr. Green's report shows that
a few days before Charles E. Hughes be
came secretary OF state he received pay
ment from the union Of $50,620-08. Mr..
Hughes was one of union counsel in the lti-
CATION following Judge Anderson's decision
IN the "checkoff" case The salary list shows
that the union officers draw modest COM
pensation. The largest item OF expenditure is
for aid to strikers, the total for 1921 being
more than $3OO0,0OO These facts are gather
ed from summary Of Mr.. Green's report
made by the Philadelphia Public Ledger.

With schools opening at the beginning OF
another scholastic year it is well for every
parent, and every resident for that matter, to
stop moment and think what an important
institution the public school is. The influence
OF the teacher does not end with the mind
alone. Many a successful man points back to
one OF his school teachers as the source OF the
inspiration that led him to success. Every
teacher can have great influence over his
or her pupils, provided the proper co-opera-
ton has been given by the parents.

where does the path lead over the hill.

Forty Cents for Cotton.
From the Savannah Press.

Fred E. Arthur, who seems to be a prac-
teal Sumter county farmer or, at least, a
Sumter county man who knows something
about the cotton situation, has written a let
ter to the newspapers urging farmers not
to sell their crop at twenty cents pound
It's worth forty cents in Mr. Arthur's opin-
ion. He says in a letter to the Atlanta Con-
St1tut1On:
There seems to be a mad rush on to
get this crop from the farmer around
twenty cents, and soon it will be out of
his hand and he will be left nothing i'll
the world to go through the winter with,
as a greater number of them are not
making any feed stuff on account Of past
climatic conditions.
Then, what's going to become OF things
for another crop? You take mule, thir-
ty-seven acres of land, two hands, and
they make, say four bales OF cotton at
twenty cents, they have $500; one-half
of this for the "landlord" the other for
the two hands.
1t is only he best class of farmers that
get four bales to the plow The two men
who ran this one mule get 5000; both are
to be fed and clothed out of this 5000.
In addition, they have to pay for their
one-half of the fertilizer they use; the
landlord" furnishes the other half of
the fertilizer, feeds the mules, furnishes
the land, keeps up all farming tools to
HIdke IHe crop Win, SuCn dS pow gear,
pillow stocks, and all farm machinery; has
to keep up the houses the hands live in,
pay taxes and insurance, SO please tell
me where either the hands or the land
lord" come in?
Can anyone keep out of debt?
Cotton today is cheap at forty cents;
still we are rushing to let them have it
at twenty cents.
1t would seem that there is something in
the conclusions reached by Mr. Arthur Cot.
ton is too cheap now for the farmer to let al
OF it go at the price offered The natura
thing to expect is higher prices for cotton
as the season advances, and when the world
learns of the ravages Of the boil weevi
throughout all the cotton belt there is ev-
rope will want additional supplies and the
American mills will take all they can get
and this is going to eat pretty we'll into the
visible supply.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Chicago News: The chief trouble with the
.omtry, Mr. Beveridge asserts, is that too
many restrictive laws have been adopted in
the last two decades laws that have hamper
ed and paralyzed business and industry. The
great need, he says, is to tree the hands OF
honest business, to clean house, to repeal
foolish and unnecessary laws that penallze
enterprise and stand in the way Of healthy
Trade and commerce have been
made tmid, half hearted and spasmodic by
fears OF meddlesome interference, demogogl-
cal attacks and actual law prescribed penal
ties for innocent transactions Confidence can
be restored only by the acceptance OF a new
OF repeating harmful legislation
and OF refraining from interference with le-
ultimate activities.
