THE INTELLIGENCER'* POSITION In yesterday afternoon's Dally Mall was au editorial which attempted to dodge tile issue 01 muddy the wuter? HO tbat the average reader would not notice that the Daily Mall lind not apoligizetl or made proper correction if Itu two attucks on this newspaper, and that is the reason for this editor ial. To be specific: The Dally Mall in a recent editorial stated in part "but the whole town believes thal corpo ration (meaning the Southern Public multics Co.) owns you body and soul," to which The Intelligencer r?. piled the following day as follows: Now, neighbor, if we are to continue to get along we must stick to facts. The Intelligencer is absolutely inde pendent, and so long as the present editor remains in charge, we shall take positions along what we con ceive to be right and proper, and ac cording to what we believe to be the side that n ?eds championing, wheth er it be for a cleai. city or to keep a wrong being done any corporation, whether its name be Southern Public ; Utilities Company, vir what not. No i man is at all Informed who "believes ; that corporation owns you body and noni." and no one knows this better than our afternoon contemporary. i This to our mind was a plain and ' unequivocal denial of the attack; and BB the Dally Mail pursued the subject . no further, we decided that probably the statement was made in healed i passion and regretted afterwards, so we paid no further attention to it un- 1 til thc offense was repoated Satur day. We then called on The Daily Mail for a retraction or a correction, and the following is the result. A local newspaper came out on a quiet Sabbath morning with this inscription at its masthead: "Remem ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy." This sounds good and should have put every one who saw it in a re verent Btate of mind. But that newspaper went further and threatened dire calamities against The Dally Mall on this peaceful Sab bath quiet morn, that if lt does not apologise, lt will . do something aw ful to this peace-loving newspaper. We do not know exactly what it ls going-to dj, bul lt ls.evidently some thing awful. Our airship, which that newspaper said wo saddled on the eommunity. is not in good running order, or we might again flee from this city as we did some months ago, when threatened with a ilk? dire cal amity by that same newspaper.. Now, getting down seriously, neigh- 1 bor? we would advise you to keep your head on your shoulders and at | least one foot on the ground, and rot ] get too excited. The cause of this ? war is that we accused you of being the organ ot the Southern Public Utilities company. Well, that is some thing very serious, and frora the .tone ot your .article, we have either got to ; npollgUe. fight or run. .Now, in all friendliness, you are ' taking yourself **>o seriously. W? do I not question the independence of the present edite,- of the morning news- ( paper, but ve will say that unless his friendliness toward the Southern < Public Utilities company had been I known In advance, he would not bold toe position he now occupies.( Now, neighbor, if you do not believe this, Just start something in your newspaper that this company doesn't spprMve nf, and see where your Job i will land. . i This matter began 'before you ar- , rived In Anderson, and you may not ( be fully informed on the matter. The ( newspaper of which you are now ed- , Itor has backed op the Southern ? Public Utilities company in every- . laing that company has contended for; the sixty-year franchise, the , Forty-year franchise and on down. Several of your stockholders and di- 1 rectors are closely Identified with ' tho Southern Public Utilities Com- 1 ?any. our newspaper has consistent- \ ly supported ovorything they have asked for; that ia. your privilege, and 1 wo have no criticism. Oh the other 1 band, the Southern Public Utilities ' company bas reciprocated In con- < ?tently taking a good stied advertis ing apace with your dally, which they i bave not done la ? any other city in i which they have a franchise. This ] looks to. us very much like a return ; jf thd Baternhl feeling which you \ bare constantly manifested toward < thia company. i Yet you disclaim that you are an j organ of this company. Wfell, we , bave no cause to go behind any gen- j lleman's word, but we wish you would < leflne your position in the mstter, so wc would know how to construe lt. Is lt "defender," "protector," or what . ls lt. We will take your statement in the matter, but have some curiosity ! to know whiit it really ia There Is tio need to attempt to mud- ! ly the wr.teis by trying to make it j ippear that the editor of this paper is taking himself tco seriously or any < inch rot aa that This attack has all I un apytrarsiii-t- vi being pr?-?ScCU?v?-?.

Judging from the Daily Mall's two unwarranted f Handsrous attacks upon The Intellt- I fencer, after twice being, corrected, lt 1 ippears that the Dally Mall's motive < a to Injure the reputation of The ' intelligencer in this community, hence < mr demand that proper correction he t nade. - Tba Dally Mall owes The In- 1 ?Uigenau- (and not W.

J jaj&jeae Judge? 1 IF ROOSEVELT WERE PRESIDENT Opponents and critica of the pres ent administration at Washington ha,ve become bold enough in the past few weeks, to treat with unbounded levity the idea that haB pretty gen erally disseminated throughout the country, that the American people, In the circumstances now enveloping the civilized world, may well "thank God for Wilton." But that there is genuine ground for feeling Just that way about our present government is plainly shown by some recent utter ances of the ex-president from whose rule we are most fornuately free. In the course of a recent article ane o? a number that he is contribut ing to a newspaper syndicate con rernlng the war and its lessons for Americans-Co). Roosevelt, after re ferring to the Mague treaties, to which the United State- became a party during his administration of the government, said: The climax of absurdity is for any administration to do what the present administration during the past three months has done. Mr. Wilson's ad ministration has shirked the duty plainly imposed on lt by the obliga tions of the conventions already en tered into. . . * If the Hague con ventions mean anything, and if bad raith in the observation or treaties is not to be treated with cynical indif ference, then the United States gov ernment should inform itself as to the factB. and should at least put It self on record In reference thereto. The extent to which the action should po may properly be subject for dis cussion. But that there should be some action ls beyond discussion." Col. Roosevelt's complaint ls that Belgium has been the victim of the clearest possible "breach of interna tional morality," distinctly forbidden by The Hague conventions. For this reason he declares that the present administration has "shocked the duty plainly imposed on lt" by those con ventions. In other words, If Mr. Roosevelt wore President, he would already have butted into the Euro pean squabble in such a way as, no 3'oubt, to have gotten the United States into trouble. What he would have done In Mexico no one doubts, though it ls extremely unlikely that under his treatment our Mexican pol icy would have been in even as good shapo at ia it not. And we shudder to think what would at this moment be dur atutua, if Mr. Roosevelt were In power, and the incident of the fir ing on the Tennessee by Turk? on Tuesday had taken place. He would ao doubt already have warships on the way to those waters for tho pur pose of making war, though that would not In any way make repara tion for any damage or insult out of tho Incidents ot tho Tenneaaee. Tho United Statea may well thank 13od for Wilson but it should go into >cstasles of gratitude for the fact that lt is rid of Roosevelt. "THE DRINK Oft THE JOH." Colonel George W. Goethals, canal milner, one of the biggest, moat etfec :Ivo and benevolent bosses In the world, has decided that a large quota >f his' employee smust join tho "drink jr Job brigade." The other cay he ilgned an order to the effect that all imployeea remotely connected with he ' water transportation department nust go on a strict temperance baals. Hie machinery of the canal is too ex pensive to be entrusted to drinking non. The safety of the ships that i BI the Canal ls too- pre "'ou s to be ^.dangered by John Barleycorn, 'therefore, John Barleycorn walks he plank. It Is again, aa The Con di tut ion frequently has shown, the 'drink or tho Job" from the economic standpoint Civilization Is fast crowding out al sohol, because alcohol Interferes with ;ffectlveness. Probably'' temperance las made more strides' in the psst 20 rears than any similar period in the .vorld's history. Because ot crusari >B? No. Because of legislation? No. Why. then? Because of the economic notlve. Because, at the last analy i!s, the world demands efficiency, and ? t has at last found out that alcohol J a antithetical to efficiency. In Europe rece??'./ new chapters were written in temperance by the ilg war. Rusair. suspended the sale >f vodka, in wolch ?he government tad a monopoly. France prohibited ibsinthe. Even England, with autra lberal Ideas, curtailed the closing loura of public houses. All. ct this waa done lu the name >f-efficiency! Agitation had nothing o do with lt-would probably have whole thing simply means we have eft behind the era in k which the udge, the lawyer, the doctor, 'he itatesmsn, even the preacher, could lpple. without offending- respect abll ty. It is now "The drink or the Job!"-Atlante Constitution. 3ENERAL MAN ACIER FOR ANDER SON. Under the head "General Managers or Cities," the Atlanta Journal haa he following to say about tbs old nethod of governing a city by a ?Onncllmanlc for of government rho Intelligencer has advocated a commission form of government for his city, and w* treat we shall seo ?ne such form, or going a step far ber, a general manager. The Journal saya: The general protest In this country gainst the Inefficiency and waste ot he etd concllmanic form ot city overnraebi wilt not down. It rests apon too true and too Hubutanttal a JBB?H over to perish altogether. It has ts periods of recession, it Is true, jut these only result in its gathering sreater momentum for still more pronounced advance. This protest has taken various 'oims. Hy thu close.of the year 19U t had resulted in the establishment )f the commission form of govern ment In 293 towns and cities in the 'nited States. In hundreds of others t was marked by some change In he old worn-out system, making it nore responsive to modern business nethod8 and requirements. In the city of Los Angeles it has aken the form of a proposed amend nent to the city charter which will >rovlde for a city manager and a >oard of eleven directors while at he same time retaining the mayor ind thc city council. Should the unendment be adopted, which will ie voted on at an election to be held >n December 28, Los AngeleH will roubtless be the first large city In tho Tnlled States whose ufTuirs will be idminlstei ed ty directors and a gen eral manager. This, however, is mere y the i-jseuce of commission gov ernment under another name but mme which gives a very striking dea of what is designed to be accom ilished by the revolt against the in fToctivcness of tho old system. A I . lard of directors and a general nanager conduct practically every rig- successful American enterprise oday. In fact it is the machinery of he business success for which Amer en is world-tamed. A city is a busi iess enterprise. Its legislative and governmental functions are of minor :onsequencc compared to its chief ind. namely, the expenditure of large innis of money in the interest of tho nhabitants. who furnish the money in he forms or tastes so that the funds io imbursod may 'yield' the people the ;reatest returns in health, comfort, tafety and pleasure. The old form, modeled on state and ?ati-.mal governments, is suited to an irganlzatlon whose chief end bi leg slation and in which business con ilderatlons are only incidental. Hence ls final and utter breakdown when ipplied to a municipality which is es icntially a business corporation. Advancing progress will in time lend it to the discard everywhere. fEXlCAN FLAG AGAIN FLYING OVER .VERA CRUX (CONTINUED FnOM PACE ONE.) hemsclveti under the orders of Qener ?1' Carranza.
