DESERVES GREAT CREDIT.

County Court Clerk Price deserves
credit for his attitude on the whiskey
license question.
If he erred in granting former H.
cense he is acting in accordance with
sense of honor when he refuses to
grant the privilege again. 1t takes
grit in man to acknowledge error
even in private affairs, and Mr.. Price
is proving he has this quality in the
stand he has taken in regard to an ex-
tension of So. Pittsburgs whiskey
curse
For the few friends he may lose
among whiskey partizans he will raise
up hundreds of substantial friends
At no time has the Adams law ceased
to have effect at any place in this coun-
ty and while Mr.. Price was deceived
once he is proving that it is not so
easy to fool him again.

DIED.

Will Bribery died Tuesday morning
at three clock, at his boarding house
the home of T. G. Golston, near Whit
well. He was 26 years old and was a
member of the Odd Fellows Lodge.
He and his brother were both at work
in Whitwell and they had been visiting
homefolks near Pikeville from Thurs
day until Monday, and had returned
to Whitwell to continue with their
work Mr.. Bribery didn't work Mon
day but didn't complain of being sick,
but ON Tuesday morning he awoke his
brother by kicking the foot-board of
the bed and struggling for his breath.
His brother raised him up in bed but
he lived only few minutes
No one can tell when we are going
to be called away from this sinful
world That is debt we all have to
pay, sooner or later, and let us all
study about it more and prepare our
selves to meet God and our loved ones
that have gone before us, and that are
now standing ON the right hand side Of
God and His holy angels. May the
Lord help the dear father, mother,
brothers and sisters that are left to
mourn over their Gear one, but God
knows best.
Mr.. Bribery was not a member Of
any church that we know of but VIC
hope and trust that he is sweetly
sleeping in the arms of Jesus There
is vacant place in his home that car
never be filled and he is missed by al
who knew him but if we will only be
lieve and trust in Jesus, some sweet
day we will meet with our bowed one,
again forever in that fair and happy
land. His remains were taken Il
Pikeville Tuesday evening for burial
May the Lord abide with You all il
my prayer. A Friend.

In South Pittsburg dispatch else
where published is news of strike at
Blackjack Foundry and the reason
claimed therefor seems to us to be
without foundation. We have had
business dealings with the managers
of the Blackjack Foundry as they have
been patrons of our Advertising col,
umns for some time. AS we have al
ways found them upright in their
dealings we feel that the charges
made have been brought forward
Through misunderstanding, and that
the matter will be quickly settled.
The Blackjack foundry has always been
run on the "open shop" principle, SO
we understand, and hence the strike
is no contest for recognition of the I'M
ion. We hope to hear of an early adj
justment of the difficulty.

the use Of slang. The other day when
she had been very naughty her mother
said: "Now, Edith. you go and shut
yourself up in dark room and ask God
to forgive you and stay there until he
does"
Into room she went. But in almost
minute she reappeared with a rad

GREATNESS AND SEA POWER.
The proposition that a great nation of

in the Roosevelt ideas of national great

Recently the Chamber of Commerce of
Dorthmund, the heart of the district
wherein centers Germany's iron, steel
and mining interests, adopted q report
reciting the statement that "a strong
navy, commanding respect, is demanding
by the large majority Of the German
people" The conviction gains ground.
1t was argued, that under the present
world-conditions q nation can maintain
its independence, protect its interests
and attain far-reaching aims only
through sea-power Statesmen and dip

Germans, who have the interests Of
commerce, the industries and sea traffic
in charge, emphatically declare that
purely sober, economic reasons urge the
creation Of navy commanding respect

opment of Germany's war fleets.

they conclude, "our annual increase of
