E. |. COX FOR
 ,CUUNTY TREASURER

The subject O this article is a candidate for reelection to the office of county treasurer of this county. Mir. Cox is serving his first term and as far as our in- formation has gone. has served the county well. The Board of County Commissioners of Ac- counts in their last report spoke very highly of the correctness of the lCounty Treasurer's books, which is quite a compliment to Mir. Cox.
 Mr. Cox is no stranger to the people of this county and it is al- most useless to elaborate upon his fitness for this position He asks for a second term and under the Democratic rule, no doubt, he will receive same without op- position.

We notice our old friend Rufus McDaniels of Clark County, is a candidate for State Treasurer, to succeed John w. Crockett. and we are glad to know that he will b9 elected without,opposition. Mr. McDaniels is the present deputy treasurer, and is one of the very best young men about the State House. Of course he will be elected without opposition and will make good Walnut Ridge Times
 We can only say, amen, to the above. Knowing Rufus as we do, we unhesitatingly endorse him for the above position. He has no opposition and there is no probability of him having any. We hope not, and certainly want to see him elected by a hand some majority. R u f u Me Daniels is clean. sober young man and one that the people can trust in any position.

President Wilson is one of the most tactful leaders of men whom we have ever had in the White House. When he went into office it was predicted that inasmuch as he was a man without eXten- sive experience in public affairs he would have rough sailing on the sea oI public political life
 But all such prophets reckoned without their hosts. He is pro. wing himself a most successful leader of men. He is tFe real dominant spirit in his admins tration without giving personal offense to any of the men who differ with him. II has il de
 pendence Of conviction, a quality of the real statesman, and he does not ask Congress or the bosses in his party, what ought to be done. He simply makes up his mind and then sets him self to the task of bringing Con- gress into line with his politics.
 As a result he has already sign,
The Nevada County picayune., 1914-01-09

ed the new tariff law and the new currency law, two of the most important acts ever passed by any Congress. And the country has felt no jar as a result. The people have implicit confidence in President Wilson and he has confidence in the people. He pledged certain things when he was elected and he is carrying out those pledges to the letter. - Texas Christian Advocate.

1 have never been able to un- derstand just why it is that a man who works wish teams ard tools must of necessity be con- sidered unftted to usethe brains that the good Lord has been kind enough to give him, any more than the man who works with pens, typewriters and pencils.
 Surely out in the fields among the plants, flocks and herds, a man finds as good opportunity to think and plan of he would were he shut up in an office, storeroom or mill.
 And why, then, should the man who thinks on the farm be oblig- ed to prove that he is not an im- postor any more than the man who thinks in an office? Or why should it be thought un- usual for the man who thinks on the land to write, during his spare moments, of what he thinks and how he works any more than for the man swho works in the office to tell of his work or thoughts.

POOR ROOSEVELT!

Poor Roosevelt! He must be
desperate indeed if he thinks he can
make political Roadway at this time
by his damagogic sneers at Presi-
dent Wilson's foreign policy.
Since the madness of mi litary
authocracy plunged Europe into the
most staggering war of all history,
most Americans are profoundly
grateful that Woodrow Wilson is
President and that Theodore
Roosevelt is not. With Mr.. Wilson
as President everybody knows that
the United States can avoid being
drawn into this suicidal conflict.
Ii Mr.. Roosevelt were President,
the United States would be sitting
on powder barrel, waiting for the
inevitable spark. In fact, Mr..
Roosevelt is about the last person
in the country whom any sane
American would wish to see in the
Presidency il crisis like this,
which calls for cool head and
steady nerves, common sence and
clear head.
That Mr.. Ro osevelt should have
ventured to assail Mr.. Wilson's
patriotism indicates clearly enough
that be has lost touch with popular
sentiment. He fails to appreciate
the tremendous change in public
opinion which has come about since
the Kaiser's declaration of war.
The American people were never
less in mood for big-stick bluff
and bluster, and they never had a
lower opinion of-war politics.

ALCOHOL AND FIGHTING EFFICIENCY.

The relation Of alcohol To indus
trial efficiency is still a moot ques-
ton, but apparently the great COM
manders are convinced that alcohol
does not improve an army's fight
ing efficiency. That the Kaiser has
forbidden the treating Of German
soldiers, while Earl Kitchener asks
the British troops ''to obstain from
drinking while abroad, " is signitic-
ant OF new order Of things in war
fare, The suppression of the sale
of absinthe IN Paris, if not strictly
military measure. is prompted by
the emergency of war.
A temperate army was something
not conceived Of in the old theories
of war. But, in fact, drunkard
is to-day as much out Of place in
an army as he would on a battle
ship. A modern army IS fighting
machine only less complex in its
nature than modern navy and e.
qually dependent on sobriety in the
ranks.
Perhaps another Trafalgar or
Waterloo could be fought on grog,
but the military authorities to-day
take no chances with Clutch cour-
age 1t will seem singular that
war, in which the worst passions, Of
mankind find play, should incident
ally serve the cause Of moral reform.
Yet the practical gain to temperance
is the same whether men are kent
sober on behalf of industrial etiicien-
cy or by the injunctions Of army
commanders.
