MERELY COMMENT

Chicago business men are leading
the nation in the game of grabbing
off dollars while Europe is in the he'll
of war
They would capitalize the misery
OF our brothers in>Europe.
But, then, business is business"
And the American shipping trust
and financial ghouls of Wall street
are moulding public opinion.
And getting ready to put over that
old ship subsidy.
1t Uncle Sam is going to put any
money into ships, let him buy them
himself and sail them, too.
1t we are going to have a new mer-
chant marine, let the people own it.
Instead of placing the blame for
war on one of the kings, why not
place it on ALL of them-the king
trust.
If States Attorney Hoyne can pre-
vent the food trust from using war
as an excuse for robbing the people
here in Chicago, he will be doing
something worth while.
"HSiI LItO wal IISffS says any king
is leading his army, it doesn't mean
he is out in front where bullets can
get at him.
You can gamble he is leading his
army from safe spot in the rear,
out of range of the enemy's guns.
There would be something to it if
every male member of European roy
atty were put on the firing line in the
front rank.
A king who claims to rule by d.
vine right and hold his commission
direct from God oughtn't to be afraid |
of such mortal things as lead bullets. |
1t the bullets saw his sacred per-
son they would probably go around
him and pick out a working soldier.
Have you noticed that business"
as usual-is out for the dough?
The world would be better off if

LOOKS LIKE THEY'LL LEVY WAR
TAX IN UNITED STATES
Washington, Aug. 1o.-Although
the United States is at peace, legisla-
tive leaders today admitted levying of
war tax" is inevitable. Prospects
that the European conflict will be
prolonged and that it will materially
reduce, for years to come, the i'm
ports of this country, make it neces-
sary to adopt emergency measures
for the raising of revenue.
Majority Leaer Underwood, author
of the new tariff law, admits that the
falling off in the imports from Europe
will be such that Congress must be-
gin to think of other means of bring
ing in money.
Underwood said today that definite
plan had been considered, but the
impression in legislative circles is
that a stamp tax will be imposed as
in the Spanish-American war.
Whisky, beer and tobacco, certain
ly, and possibly checks, mortgages
and other legal documents will most
likely be penalized for revenue raising
purposes.

which occupied the city.

Scored Singing in the Country

Far down in the country where
grand opera methods have not
vet been applied to church sing
ing, a blessed old minister arose
and announced the number of
the hymn he desired the con-
gregation to sing, says the Popu-
lar Magazine. He followed the
old custom of lining out" the
hymn. That is, he would read
a line in a loud voice and then
the congregation would sing it,
The first line was as follows:
We praise Thee, 0 God, for
Thy power ten thousand
strong.
The congregation tried the
line and was to such a high key
that when ten thousand
strong" was reached everybody
was up in a screech.
I'm afraid that's too high, "
said the benevolent old man,
too high on the ten thousand
strong"
His difficulty was solved by
an old fellow who stood up far
back in the church and exclaim-
ed in a nasal voice:
All right, then, bring it
down to one thousand. "

The Sidewalk Question

At the meeting of the Board
of Trade of Roanoke Rapids
Township held in the Rosemary
Sehoolhouse on last Monday
night, petition was presented
to the individual members for
the purpose of obtaining contribu-
tons to build good sidewalk
from Rosemary to Roanoke
Rapids.
This is a thing that has long
been needed in this community
and we sincerely hope that the
promoters of the scheme will
have no trouble in carrying same
through to completion. 1t will
be peculiarly advantageous for
Rosemary on account OF the school
children who have to walk down
the Avenue to school, good wealth
er or bad, eight months in the
year.
Mr.. J. 7. Chase has offered to
survey the sidewalk and superin-
tend the construction Of same.
When the petition was presented
at the Board Of Trade Monday
night it had only been circulated
in Roanoke Rapids for a few
hours and a hundred and twenty
dollars had been pledged.
Mr.. l.. S. Cannon has the petit
ton in charge in Rosemary and
it is hoped and believed that
Rosemary will respond with their
half. The construction of a
good gravel and cinder sidewalk
will cost about three hundred
dollars. Its use by the school
children alone for one session
will be worth that much. The
sidewalk will not only provide a
dry footing in wet weather, it
will keep the children and espec-
Tally the little tots out of the
middle Of the Avenue where
they are in constant danger of
being run down by recklessly
driven automobiles.
Every father in Rosemary who
has children going to school
should give what he can towards
the sidewalk and induce others
to do likewise. 1t is impossible
for the sidewalk to be built eX-
cept by private contributions as
township road funds cannot leg
ally be used for this purpose.
