WHERE TROUBLE LIES

In 1922 the net shift from
farms to towns and cities was
100000, or about 3.6 percent
of the rural population. The
percentage of habitable farm
houses not occupied increased
from Al per cent in 1920 to 10
per cent in 1922. This abandon
ment of the land was observed in
all sections of the country bur
was most striking in the region
west of the Missouri river and in
the Pacific Northwest.
The farmers are suffering
from an excessive cost of produc-
ton, the correlative of which is
low prices for their products.
The Republican tariff has made
everything the farmer consumes
dearer without adding anything
to the selling prices of what he
produces. He is paying in tar
ifs more than he pays in State
and county taxes, on the average.
The republicans won't reduce
the tariff and they won't help to
rehabilitate Europe and thus en-
large the American farmers mar
ket. That say the democrats.

Advertising is almost as nee
essary to the bank, particularly
the one offering a diversified
service, as it is to the department

one deserving the right to apply
it to his business should be de-

advertising.
The successful merchant is an
advertiser. Search the ledgers
of any newspaper and without
exception you'll find that the
firm that Is forging ahead. fast

The signs are so large that
he who runs may read.

COOPERATIVE HOG SALES

The cooperative sales have
been boon to the big business.
1t has eliminated the hog specula-
tor. The man who was too far
from a packing house to carry
his hogs for direct sale, or who
did not have enough hogs to ship
in earlots, was at the mercy of
the hog buyers going over the
country and picking them up>far
under their value. The sale has
put the top price in reach of the,
man with only one hog to sell.
1t has done more than that. 1t
has brought the hog raisers to-
gether. They have seen the hogs
in bulk and the money in bulk.
and it. is more inspiring sight
than selling two or three hogs at
a time.-Moultrie Observer.

THE AUToCRATIC SENATE


1t is rather refreshing inst al
this time to see the United States
Senate, which has been growing
more and more autocratic during
recent years, called down by the
President and politely reminded
by him that there are limitations
to senatorial prerogatives and
authority. Of course reference
IS here made to tho action of the
Senate on Monday in adopting a
resolution advising the President
THAT the resignation OF Secretary
of the Navy DENLY should be de-
manded immediately"
Although the resolution was
transmitted to the White House
by special messenger within the
hour of its adoption. President
Coolidge was evidently prepared
for it and replied to it promptly
with the statement that mo Of
fetal recognition can be given
to the passage of the Senate
resolution relative to their opin-
ion concerihg members of the
Cabinet or other officers unde:
executive control" The Exec
utive further informed the Senate
that he did not propose to sacli-
fee "any innocent man for my
own welfare" nor retain in Of
flee "any unfit man for my own
welfare"
And then as sort of clincher
President Coolidge informed the
Senate that 1.-THE dismissal of an
officer of the Government such
as is involved in this case, other
than by impeachment, is eXclu-
siyely an executive function. /
regard this as a vital principal
of our government"
In support of his contention
that the Senate was meddling and
transcending its authority. Presi-
dent Coolidge quoted from for
mer Presidents Madison and
Cleveland, each of whom, it APP
pears, had occasion to call the
Senate's attention to the fact
that the Constitution conferred
upon the Executive certain pow
eTs which belong to that depart
ment alone and with which the
Senate could not interfere.
Without presuming or intend
ing to here pass any opinion upon
the merits of the case insofar as
the culpabilityn Of Secretary Den
by may be concerned. we confess
to feeling of satisfaction at
seeing the Senate. which has been
growing more and more austere
and presumptuous under the
leadership Of Henry Cabot Lodge.
called down by the Chief Execu-
tive, and the incident is made all
the more gratifying by the fact
that the Chief Executive and the
majority of the Senate are Of

under the river separating New
Jersey from Manhattan Island.
And this was certainly won
derful work. In statecraft Mr..
McAdoo was not known. But
he had not established himself
in the legal profession nor was
he regarded as possessing the
latent qualities of statesm lnship.
His endeavors were along other
lines. Nor had he made any par
ticular mark as financier, and
when Mr.. Wilson selected him
as Secretary of the Treasury, it
developed than an excellent man
for this highly responsible posi-
ton had been chosen.
But during that period of Mr..
McAdoo's work of familirizinp
himself with governmental
affairs. devoting most of
his attention to its fnan-
cial side. Senator Under
wood was there in the senate, de-
yeloping more and more into an
American legislator fit to become
the Nations head. That is why
he is the outstanding figure in
the Democratic party for the
nomination for presidency, and
that is why indications multiply
that he will obtain this nomina-
ton from his own party. And if
successful there, it is generally
conceded that he will be a more
formidable opponent of the Re-
publican nominee than any other
man the Democrats might name.

News-Gazette says there viii
probably be three candidates m
the race IN this Stakeholder
wood. McAdoo and Reed -
but it cannot believe for q mo-
ment that the people Of Georgia
will give Senator Reed serious
consideration" Continuing the
News-Gazette says:
Senator Underwood and Mr..
MeAdoo are both good and strong
men, neither wholly without some
objection on the part Of some of
our citizenship. Senator Under
wood in our opinion, is an ADLER
man than Mr.. McAdoo and is a
neighbor of Georgia. Mr.. Nc
Adoo was born and lived in
Georgia a number of years. We
believe Senator Underwood would
make safer man for the bust
ness interests of the country, as
he is able, sane and conservative
and has the confidence of the
country in this respect.
Recent exposures of ineffi-
cheney, graft and theft in Wash
ington has shaken the conf
hence of the nation. However,
the exposures have not in the
least caused the public to lose
confidence in President Cool
idge, and he is the man the
Democrats will have to beat.
To beat Coolidge, the Demo
Gratis must nominate a man that s
safe, a man that's sane, a man
that's conservative and vet
courageous. We do not believe
Nlr. McAdoo meets these speci-
hcations so thoroughly as the
Alabama Senator.
The Columbus Enquirer-Sun
believes that in Mr.. Underwood,
the state has the ideal candidate,
that he is the outstanding man
in party today, saying.
Georgia's delegation to the ma
tional convention in 1912 stood
by and for the nomination of Mr..
Underwood as long as there was
the slightest possible chance of
his success, and there is no rea-
son why Georgians should not
rally to him this year with even
greater confidence and hope
than they did twelve years ago F.;
for during that time the Ala
ibama Senator has grown in
knowledge of the affairs of gov
eminent, he has. grown in expert
ence and he has grown in wis
dom. In fact, Mr.. Underwood
comes nearer in our opinion, to
being the ideal candidate for the
presidency than any other man
whose name has been mentioned
in this connection.

Gratis were voting for Mr.. Under
