We can't help pittying the young
Alabama bride of a week who was
ruthlessly torn from her husband at W:
Pensacola a few days ago when he ^
was sentenced to serve five years in ^
the phosphate mines of Florida for w
stealing an automobile. We hope it g
was not a Ford.
sc
It strikes us the appointment by ti
President Wilson, and his retention of 01
, Mr. Burleson as a cabinet officer at ^
the head of the government's great- *
est public utilities department has
mac e the administration more enemies
than any other feature of its rule. ^
We've been told by a Texas townsmart
of the Postmaster General that
he couldn't be elected to a magistracy m
; ? Vi.c hnwn Aiotrirt. From the odium da
' n<* excited throughout the country bj
illaudable rulings, we are fa
st-cngiy ae!in>l to believe him un- ?*

feet President Wilson's sne 1 bl
ing tour of the count ty > "iIT i
upon the peace treaty situation, o.r.. ?
it is a matter to* be settled entirely ?
by the national house and senate.
Everybody knows that these dignitaries
usually act upon their own
judgement and without consulting ot
even considering the wishes of their
constituents. Inasmuch as the president
addressed a few remarks tj
these august bodies on the subject before
leaving Washington it is to be
hoped they will settle the contention
before he returns. The people xar.-,
the matter settled.
Now that the Federal government
is hot after the big packers it is only
reasonable to expect higher priced
meats and that of an inferior quali'
I erm
ty. we nave never ueeu auic w oct
where any good was accomplished by
federal interference with the so-called
trusts. Past experience teaches us r '
that it is to the ultimate and consumate
detriment of the public. Sine*
government interference some years
back with the'Standard Oil Co.. we
have had to pay more for kerosene
of a lower grade. The same applies
to gasoline. The sugar trust, meat
trust, tobacco trust and, in fast, about
ever,'thing of a private character that
the government undertook to "investigate"
or "regulate" caused a depreciation
in quality with an accompanying
advance in price to consumers and
an enormous expense to the public
treasury in defraying expenses of
"investigating"' committees.
Autocrat Burleson has recently
caused the resignation of a promi- ?
nent South Carolina gentleman from
* * i-L . /*! ?1 O ^ 5?
meriDersnip on me V/ivn service v/um
mission. Since it is a recognized Bur- I
leson custom to rule or ruin, Mr. Gal- I
toway's resignation will not be a sur- I
poise to his friends and fellow citizens fl
of *iiis State. Mr. Galloway is quoted I
assaying concerning his action: "My I
resignation was forced because I
would not cooperate wi^h Postmaster
General Burleson in debauching the
civil service and making a sham of the
merit system. Herman W. Craven,
the Republican member, ffndl, Democrat,
were ousted from the commission
because we were not willing the
commission should be a mere adjunct
of the Postoffice Department, and subservient
to it, especially with reference
to examinations for presidential
postmasters under executive order of
March 31, 1917."
