Values

Relatively of value, according
to a statistician is like this: A
big locomotive works gets
cablegram order for an oil can
worth 40 cents. To send the
cable cost $40. So the oil can,
normally worth 40 cents was
worth $1,000, when badly need
ed. Values are volatile, more
shifting than quicksand, more
changing than the winds. They
are relative. A loaf of bread
is worth a ton of gold to the
man starving in the Far North.
A dime represents more imPns-
oned pleasure in childhood than
$1,000 when we are too old to
enjoy it.
Work hard every day, but re-
member that you should also
play. If you've neglected the
playtime, stop now, before old
age claims your mind, muscles
and bones.

Make City Registration
Automatic

The present method of con-
tinual-and almost continuous
Registration for city primaries
and elections should be changed
and that as early as the neces-
sary laws or charter amend
ments can be put through the
Legislature.
The sessions of the LegisIa-
ture, after 1925, will be biennial
once in two years-and for
that reason the city authorities
should see that this necessary
change be made next year,
1t is not necessary to register
but once for county elections,
because the county has an auto
matte registration system. All
one has to dc is pay his taxes
and county authorities look aft
er the registration.
In the city it is different. AL
most every election or primary
means another re-registering.
Voters forget. They think they
are qualified to vote and when
election day comes, find their
names are not on the list.
All of this tends to CUT
DOWN the number of votes
cast, and that is unfortunate. Ev-
cry man and woman should
vote. Nothing should be done
to hinder that vote. Rather, ev-
erything should be arranged to
make voting easy. The more
persons voting, the more interest
there will be in civic matters;
higher will be the class of citi-
zens offering for office and more
efficient will be our govern
ment.
Make registration in the city
Of Anericus automatic. 1t is i'm
portant. It is necessary.

Who Will Lead the
Revolt in Georgia?

The next state election will be
straight out khan and anti-klan
fight. Few things seem more
certain now. The fighting spirit
of the people of Georgia is at
last being aroused.
The announcements and ex-
posures of the last few weeks
have convinced the most skept-
ical that Georgia today is in the
hands of the Political Khan; that
from its governor down, with
but very few exceptions, its So
called public servants are in
reality servants of the Political
Khan.
Already there are several
wculd-be governors and would
be senators feeling out the
people, and with few exceptions
these men are strongly suspect
ed of khan support or khan mem
bership.
The anti-kIan forces of the
State are awakening at last and
beginning to cast about for pos
sible candidates to defeat these
klan-owned and klan-controlled
politicians.
w. w, Rainey, prominent
business man of Columbus, in
letter to the Enquirer-Sun
Thursday suggests the name Of
w. T. Anderson, publisher of
the Macon Telegraph, as an
ideal anti-klan candidate for
governor. In his letter Mr..
Rainey says;
One can we'll join in the En-
quirer-Sun's lament -
Poor Georgia. The Invisible
Empire State of the SOUTH"
How long will Georgians put
up with this state of affairs?
How much longer will the
voters allow the Cow pasture"
politicians in Atlanta to disgrace
the state.
Who will be the Mrs Ferguson,
tiAN " AALAe4lli f1llCn w iIllCy OI lItC
Governor Walton to lead the re-
volt in Georgia?
In scanning the list of men
who might lead in straight out
fight against the Ku Klux Khan,
one thinks at once of Bill Ander-
son, editor of the Macon Tele-
graph. Mr.. Anderson has been
fearless in his fight against the
khan and all that it stands for,
and hits at every form of in
tolerance that shows its head.
Some say that "Bill' has put
on the soft pedal just a bit since
being appointed member of the
governors official family, but
those who know him understand
that he will never cease to fight
hooded and masked influences l
believe that he could easily win
in a straight fight against the Ku
KluX Khan and what they stand
for.
1t must be gratifying to the
people of Columbus, that the Ku
Klux are almost an unknown
quantity here.
There are no T. w. K. (trade
Win t1e Kan Signs on Lle GOOlS
Of Columbus merchants.
And there is no blan control
of either city or county govern
ment.
This situation didn't just hap
pen. Somebody deserves credit
for the conditions in Columbus.
There are a great many who be-
heve that this credit should 90
largely to the Enquirer-Sun. /
am one of those who heartily
concur in this opinion.
Bill Anderson has been one
of the most fearless in the fight
against the khan; but. as Mr..
Rainey notes there are some
who say Bill has put on the
soft pedal just BIT" of late.

per has a very good reason for
