Russia and Human Freedom

We have already adverted to the deep
er question underlying the placing Of
sympathy in the present war. There are
account for the present attitude Of Eng
weaker power. While seemingly the
aggressor, the world has known that
she was not really so. By the deliberate
policy of Russia for the past decade at
least she has been assailed in her most
vital interests. She is fighting that she
may not be held with her expanding
population within bounds that it would
become impossible for her to pass. More
over, she is fighting that the yellow
races of the East shall have a voice and
a hand in the shaping Of their future
destiny. These are reasons apparent to

''The religion Of the Americans, as

can not fail to appreciate a people who
make such stupendous attempts to crush
out evil and raise the morals of the
masses. We may differ from them. We
may resent their assumption that we are

has been the enemy of this. History
has recorded this in letter that he who

Poland, under the atrOciOus Gather

Mr.. F. G. Conybeare, in the Internation-
al Quarterly, says Of Russia: "She has
in turn opposed the emancipation Of Bel
gium, Hungary and Italy, and nothing
but the disasters incurred by her first
in the Polish insurrectiOn and subse-
quently in the Crimean war, enabled the
foundations of liberty to be laid in those
countries" The only exception has been

impossible to acquit Russia Of selfish

FERTILE VALLEY OF THE MISSIS-

seeker and others in search of a profit
able investment and business competen-
cy, there is another field along the Frisco
System quite recently opened to those
interested in personal betterment of
financial resources.
On June 1st, the line of railroad here
tofore known as the st. Louis, Memphis
& Southeastern (now Frisco System)
was extended to st. Louis, thus making
territory in Missouri and Arkansas
along the west bank Of the Mississippi
river, accessible by way of ST. Louis.
The present service consists of pas
sengcr train leaving union station 7 10
a. m, daily, for Cape Girardeau, Lux
ora, charlottesville and intermediate
points to Memphis, also Cape Girardeau
accommodation (daily), leaving union
station 4 30 p. m.
Some years since, perhaps quarter
of century, this section was avoided
by reason of want of developments or
progressiveness; now, however, it is con-
s!dered equal, as the homeseeker and in
vestor may measure, to Oklahoma, In
dian Territory or Texas. The change in
condition throughout was accomplished
by large governmental expenditure, 4
progressive people, and extended rail
read facilities promoted and maintained
by the Frisco System, operating, as it
does, nearly 700 miles of railway in the
immediate Mississippi valley, less than
300 miles distant from St. Louis.

Plenty of Spending Money.

There has been some pesslmlstlc
talk about the decline Of bust
ness in a Presidential year. There
are people who take supreme joy
in making humanity feel. hard up.
There is nothing in business con-
ditions to worry about. Real pros
perity does not lie in the ability
of a few score millionaires to clip
coupons. 1t carries with the gen.
eral employment of toilers fair
wages. We admit there has been
little decline in certain business
departments, but the bulk of those
who desire to work are working.
The story Of one city is practi-
cally the story Of another. 1t is
a matter of cash with the people
in general. The man who is out
of a job and walking the streets
looking for work, is certain to find
it before he covers many miles.
These are not boom times, and
just at present the public has a
poor stomach for schemes. How
ever, the volume of steady, remun-
erative, legitimate business is
enormous, and there are literally
millionos of the common people
who are living comfortably and
have enough surplus to patronize
amusements and fashionable sum-
mer resorts.

Largest Knife in the World.

The biggest carving knife ever
manufactured may be seen at the
Worlds fair. This monster blade
is thirty feet in length and has an
edge as sharp as a razor. 1t is
made out of the finest steel, and
the handle is a masterpiece of the
cutters art, deliberately carved
and beautifully polished. 1t would
take a veritable giant to WELD a
knife like this. The blade is alto
gether Of American manufacture,
and it is expected to show for the
first time that American cutlery
has now reached a point of per-
lection where it fears no rivalry.
The giant carving knife cost sew
eral thousand dollars, and special
machinery had to be made be-
fore its construction could begin.
No such knife was ever before
manufactured.

SENSATIONAL SERMON.
Preacher Says the Negro Should
Be DISTINGUISHED.


DR.. M. F. Compton, pastor of
the NJ. E. church at Morgantown
on Sunday morning electrified his
congregation after preaching
about election evils and the con-
nection of the negro with them,
by saying that the North had
freed the negro and given him
the ballot, but the time is to
come when it will take the ballot
away from him.
81 expect to he cheered for that
statement, ," he said, and then the
cheering came in tumult. He
was preaching to the veterans
who had been escorted to the
church by the Junior Order.
81 am Republican. but l have
seen too much of the negro in pol
itics. He is demoralizing to him
self and to the whites. All day
on election day saw drunken
negroes associating with white
men and I saw one of them run
into an old, gray-haired woman
and almost knock her down. "
The sermon caused sensation.
The church was crowded and hun
dreds were turned away.
