It's good spirit to have at that
particular time, if it accompanied
by determination work it off" and
not make other people miserable
with your heartache. It's so foolish
to make a display of a broken
heart. 1t not only increases the
misery of the plaintiff but hastens
the cooling process of the defendant,
besides casting gloom and woe over
everyone about. It's easy to fall
in love and some people find it just
as easy to fall out of love leaving
the other fellow with the wounded
heart to hold, which is a cruel pas
time and deserving Of the just
punishment that befalls it sooner or
later. But it doesn't do a bit of
good to wear your bleeding heart
out on your sleeve, dripping sorrow
and remorse all over everybody else.

The Negro in the WoodpiIe.

"The proposition to increase the pay OF
postal employees at the expense OF the news
paper, magazine and trade-paper publishers OF
this country appears to us to be the rankest
sort of class legislation" says the Dalton
Citizen, which asks: IF the raise can't be
met without increases in postal rates why
single out any class of mail and levy the en-
tire burden on it? Why not make all classes
of mail bear their proper proportion OF the
expense of the salary increase"
The postmaster general and some members
OF congress are over-emphasizing the postal
shortage on second class distribution. They are
ignoring some of the plainest facts OF that
shortage 1t is figured by some who are in
position to know that the ranking privilege
alone will account for the entire shortage
II the propaganda sent out under l-cent
stamps and that sent out free by the govern
ment itself and by congressman was elm
mated, or even cut down one-half It would
save enough to pay the postal employees the
increase they are asking. Moreovere, the
wear and tear on waste baskets would be
reduced and saving made there.
The newspapers are now paying their full
share OF postage. At least large part
of the increase in revenue should be put or
the parcel post business, where everybody
knows it belongs OF course, it looks easier
for congress to boost second class rates ano
make the newspapers the goat OF the deficit
but the real spot where the black person /:
hidden in the woodpile is the parcel pos
rate, l-cent postage on propaganda and ad
vertising matter, and the franking privilege

Sweetheart Murders.

last what kind of complex is at work as
the crime wave mounts to higher crest and
produces a shocking number OF so-caled
~sweetheart murders "-severa of which have
been perpetuated in Georgia by both men
and worrten-is something for the psychia-
trists to explain, if they can. Dan Cupid, on
occasions. must have dual personality, be-
coming a moron Of destruction. 1t is ter
tible Indictment to place against the love
god. but the evidence, more dangerous by
reason Of the fact that it is cumulative, seems
to have that preponderance to which attor-
neys refer before bars Of justice.
A dozen or more cases OF this kind have
been brought to public attention within the
last few months. Many of the murderers
were young men in their 20s. Only occasion
ally is the destroying swain man OF ma
ture age and experience. One of the last re-
ported was Of boy Of 10 who killed his
school girl sweetheart following a quarrel
One wonders if this thing will get into the
kindergarten next. Parents OF little girls may
hesitate to let them play with their boy
friends on their way home from the grade
schools.
The psychiatrist may seek to explain away
the suggestion that downright cussedness
exists in the make up OF man who deliber-
ately will kill woman rather than permit
her to be wooed and won by another. If they
attempt it they will be close to admitting
that love is kind of mania. Perhaps it is
but normal persons could be depended upon
to contend that the true grand passion is
not one that seeks to destroy, Love, as nor
NAL persons understand it, is thing that
safeguards, protects. shelters and provides
for the object Of its affections.
lust what is to be done with the sweet
heart murderers is a question that has not
been satisfactorily answered A great many
of them have escaped paying the extreme
penalty for their crimes, which caused nc
surprise because it was not unusual. 1t may
be that the jures recalled that "all the worlo
loves lover" even one that beats his sweet
heart or strang1es her or sends bullet into
her body and finds therein a mitigating cir
cumstance Anyway, sweetheart murderer
are escaping the extreme penalties and the
power of suggestion seems to be producing
more crimes of this kind. 1t might be advis
able to make examples on the scatfold or II

If something of that kind is not done Oar
Cupid's reputation will not be worth peutei

Hints of An Alliance.

A hint has been given that an alliance has
been perfected between the United States and
Great Britain The suggestion need not
arouse suspicion in the public mind that the
warning of President Washington against en-
tanging alliances has been indifferently re-
garded The alliance between the two fore
most powers is, perhaps, better described as
an understanding in sympathy of the mutual
interests of the English speaking peoples. A
hard and fast agreement between London
and Washington having to do with assur-
ances of military cooperation and economic
support need not be considered as having
been effected American diplomacy would not
countenance it in the first place, and, in the
second, the necessity OF it hardly can be char
acterized as apparent.
1t is comforting, nevertheless, for the
English speaking peoples to know that the
two nations most strongly representative OF
the white races are in accord, that their pol
icies are in harmony, and that their destinies
are bound together in way that naturally
brings them to this logical understanding. 1t
means as much to the one as to the other.
The most encouraging thing in the sug-
gestion OF an alliance or understanding be-
tween the two powers is the thought that
they are friends, not for war but for peace.
Whatever agreement they may have made
and whatever they may have promised have
to do with the promotion of tranquility above
all things else Peace in the Pacific with two
such champions OF amity ought to be- pos
sible; whereas if the worst came the fact OF
the Stars and Stripes and the Union Jack
being on the same side would be most inn
pressive.

Wheat at Two Dollars.
From the Montgomery Advertiser

Wheat has gone to two dollars bushel
What is the west to do for a political issue
in the face of this fact:
The old time wheat farmer would have
been overjoyed at such prices. He never
dreamed OF such prices and he would have
been willing to agree that such prices meant
prosperity for the man engaged in growing
wheat. The world war came on and put ten
or twelve million men in the field men who
could do nothing in the way OF producing
food, but who nevertheless had to be ted. his
naturally upset the wheat market and put 1t
upon an unstable basis When the men went
back to their daily avocations. which lnclud-
ed the growing of wheat the prices dropped
rapidly after the first crop was raised. The
American wheat grower in vague and I'M
certain way, believed that they had been
robbed and the government ought to do
something about it, They were encouraged
bv their political leaders to believe that the
government ought to guarantee the profits OF
the wheat farmers, by setting aside enough
money to pay for the surplus wheat crop
and so stabilize the market. This speclous
doctrine caused political revolution IN the
wheat growing states, which happily came to
an end without any serious mistake. FOR 1t
was an economic question, which was ult1-
mately adjusted by the workings of economic
laws. 1t was never a political question and
never question which could have been set
tied by congress. The wheat farmer suffered
losses because he had continued to over sup
ply the world in the face Of falling mark
et His troubles could be cured by the re-
establishment Of the laws of supply and de-
mand Perhaps the wheat farmer feels asham-
ed that he partook so avidly of the nos
trums which the political "snake doctors" had
for sale.

The Goose Is Squawking.
From the Sandersville Progress.

The Evening Journal at Lewiston, Name
avs. America is staggering under increas-
mo fax burdens. We are told that the tax
in certain Maine towns levied against farm
property is as high as per cent on the val
uation. And the valuation, although low as
to sales, is not low as applied to the general
values of property in the towns as they aver
age.
paul Shoup, talking in California to the
California Banking Association. depicts the
conditions in that state, and they are not dis
similar to those in all other states MIR. Shoup
says: =,
;'In 1928 the taxpayers in California paid
over $500000000 in taxes, three times as
much as in 1912 The cost OF county govern
lment in California has increased tourteentold
in p wears The debts outstanding against
county governments in California were about
s.. 100000 twenty-one years ago. Now they
are over Sl70,000000 or so times greater
Population has increased during the same
period from l,4S5,000 to 100000, about three
times
Here in Maine the issue is the same as
in California and in all other states as tc
cost of government and to funded debt and
its accumulation. Taxation has become plan
bv which we can get the most feathers from
the goose with the least squawking, and yet
everybody is asking for more public service
more phlanthropies, more pensions, more
bureaucratic agencies for relieving the masses
OF doing things themselves"
The public is the goose alright, but about
the time the tax gatherer begins to pull the
last of its tail feathers it is going to squawk
and conditions as pointed out in the Lewiston
Journal are helping it to realize that the ta>
eaters are getting mighty close to its tai
feathers right now.
II the public loses its tail feathers (sav
ings taken by taxation) it will be its owl

Debt Is Acknowledged.

The French government officially has rec
ognized. in conference between the Amer
lean ambassador on the one side and the
premier and finance minister on the other,
the republics debt to the United States. Am
bassador Herrick's report of the interview
has lifted the gloom in Washington that fol-
lowed an unexpected development of a few
DAYS ago when all reference to the obliga-
ton was omitted from the French balance
sheet. The funding OF the French debt will
permit collections of interest rates, easing
both the finances of the American govern
ment and the public mind.
1t would seem as an impossibility that the
republic OF France ever would repudiate its
debt to this country France was one OF the
bitterest antagonists OF the Russian reputation
and she also has been adamant on the ques-
ton of German reparations. Since France OBJ
viousy could not repudiate the debt in hon
or it was taken that the obligation would
continue to be recognized. even if payments
were deferred The hope now is for more
definite arrangement at an early date What
threatened as an unpleasant incident now

An Erroneous Report.

The report sent out to some of the dali
ly newspapers thai Dawson is threatened
with an epidemic of smallpox is not borne
out by the facts There have been few
cases of an unusually mild type. Only seven
white persons Give in one family and eight
negroes have had it. and practically all OF
these have recovered That nothing like an
epidemic is threatened or feared is shown by
the fact that the schools opened at the APP
pointed time, and are holding their daily
sessions with the usual attendance. The pre-
caution has been taken, however, to enforce
vaccination, and no new cases are expected
There has been more or less smallpox in
all Of the towns Of this section, but nowhere
has it been serious enough to cause alarm.
