Too Much Maudlin Sentimentalism.
From the Dalton Citizen.

The proposition has been advanced that
convicts be taken off the roads in the state
of Georgia, and that the road work be done
with free labor. The people advocating this
policy have not yet LETT 1t be known what
they think should be done with the convlcts.
There is too much sentimental gush about
people convicted of crime. We know OF men
in our own chaingangs who are tarlng better
there than they did out OF the gang.
The work the convicts are doing on the
roads, under competent supervision, is Wor-
thv If convicts are taken off the public roads
we have no conception OF what could be done
with them. Private leasing OF convlcts is I'M
thinkable and unless these retormers and
meddlers want to house the convlcts IN lux
ury furnishing them servants and varied
entertainments. we know not what they IN
tend doirg with them.
There is another thing that is causing the
iudcious to grieve in this commonwealth.
That is. many of the same people who are
strong in their talk for law enforcement, and
who insist on the extreme penalty for crimes,
arc the first ones to run to the prison COM
mission and the governor for appeals for
mercy when redhanded murderers are con-
victed and sentenced to pay the penalty for
their ofenses. 1t is such conduct as this that
| increases crime to certain extent, and these
sentimentalists Cor perhaps meddlers is bet
ter word to use) are partly responsible for it.
We realize that often "the extreme of the
! law is the extreme OF injustice, but IN most
cases the law should be permitted to take its
course without being interfered with by out
| siders.
Sometimes we feel most OF the interest
is taken by outsiders in order to gain for
themselves notoriety. People prominent in
this kind of work are played up" in the
newspapers to an extent that is pleasing to
them and this causes them to redouble their
| efforts in behalf of the parties guilty Of the
! + az
is time for this sort of business to stop
AS to those convicted and sent to the chain
gang what better work can they be engaged
in than road building?

Easy Come, Easy Go. -"

The death as pauper of Sadie Martinez,
bright star two generations ago, is just an
other incident that illustrates the truth OF the
old saying, "easy come, easy 60. Wealth
that does not require heroic efforts in the
making frequently slips away as easily as it
came. There are exceptions to all rules, Of
course, but they are rarely encountered, or
at least, they do not attract the same interest
or attention notwithstanding that they pro-
vide much better moral of life and how to
live it successfully.
Persons who achieve fame especially those
whose work is the entertainment OF Others,
easily drift into extravaganza. Sarah Bern
hardt, who had made millions in her long
career and who had gratifed every desire for
luxury and ease, died few weeks ago almost
era years ago before he died, but managed
through the help of friends to get hold of a
little New England farm out OF which he
wrested a living until the end. James ]. JET

merstein, widow of the famous impressario
has been suffering dire poverty for years, al
though her husband made millions before his

lated period But his estate was practically
nothing when he died With him. as with the
others, it had been easy come, easy 60"
The wise person. man or woman salts
away some of the easy money, looking far
ahead to the time when rainy day may

generation 1t is always the way. Sadie

RUDE RURAL RH Y MES
CREATION.

My fellow mans curious cuss and feign
would know why things are thus; forever
asking what is what, his mental eye is never
shut In these rude rhymes that look like
prose I've told how human life arose, eluci-
dated unto you some facts that Bryan never
knew This good old world, the best of top
les. now explain from poles to tropics. The
nebular hypothesis is useful for job like
this. When back, far back our vision passes
we find universe OF gases. Although that
gas was hot and hzzy, at first it was not
whirling dizzy, but as the mixture cooled we
think it probably began to shrink. Uneven
shrinking caused rotation until she spun like
all creation. Then earth began her course to
run, and sister planets one by one were
thrown off from the central sun. Still does
cur earth though seeming quiet, show traces
of her early riot. The crust has central fires
to move it, our earthquakes and volcanoes
prove it, And, like the earth, our souls have
sprung from something old but ever young
planets OF God that, every one, revolve
around a parent sun. However thick the
crust of sin some primal fire still burns with
in, and evernore upon us beat eternal floods
of light and heat, until this stubborn soil of
ours is blessed at last with fruit and flowers

legislative Sessions.

The Massachusetts Legislature has reject
ed proposal to change from annual to bien-
NAL sessions. Massachusetts, is only one of
four states, including Georgia, in which the
legislative body convenes yearly
This retention of annual elections and an
nual sessions of the Legislature is notable
example Of conservatism, or unwillingness to
change The people will think differently
about it when they shall have made the
change. 1t is safe to assert that none OF
the other states would think of changing
from biennial to annual sessions of the leg
islature. If change were to be made it is
more likely that it would be in the direction
of lenthening the interval between sessions.
A biennial session of any state Legislature
can and does provide more legislation than
any state really needs, and the indications
now are that Georgia, at the session of the
general assembly soon to convene will part
company with Massachusetts, and the two
other states.
