come back as the English were re-
firing.
Last of all, by the mornings
news, we find the Anglo-French left
established south of Montdidied, ex-
tending to Noyon on the Disc, just
north of Compiegne.
Here again they are entrenched,
have been making a steady stand,
have repulsed frontal attacks with
the same great losses to the Ger
mans, but are certain to have to fall
back again, and the next position
will bring them not more than 20
miles from the forts of Paris.
Seems to Have Failed
In other words, with the Grant
campaign in mind, it is easy to un-
ravel the tangle. By the front and
around the left, the Germans have
been coming on for nearly two
weeks. As Grant sought to get be-
tween Richmond and Lee, Gen. Won
Kluk has striven to cut Pau and
Sir John French off from Paris. So
far as one can now see, he has
failed, as did Grant, after the same
terrific struggle, repeatedly repulsed
in front, but able to get around the
left because he had the numbers.
A great deal has been said about
the losses. At Cold Harbor, Grant
lost $1,000 men, Lee, 100. On that
basis the British loss at Mons and
ILandrecies of 5000 men would
mean casualty list to the Germans
of $4,000. But machine guns, i'm
proved rifles and the German fond
ness for the massed attack may
have resulted in an even more dis
proportionate loss to them.
Grants Great Loss
One more detail it is we'll to re-
member. After Cold Harbor, Grants
army was badly demoralized. In
four weeks he had lost $4,000 men
| HAIL Ills dIIuy IL IhC 0Si AhoA A0A ~
was 100000 men at the start, as ha!
been said by some observers, THU
ratio would mean a loss of 0,OO(
men. Those who remember civil
: war days will recall the wild out
: burst of denunciation in the coun
/. try after Cold Harbor, when Gran
: was called butcher"
> In 1864 Grant could afford to los
half his army, and still be sure o
t a numerical superiority over lie
: sufficient to prevent any counte
: strike. In men, in money, in re
sources, he was surely better o.
+ than his opponent.
;, But his army was shaken and h
e had to take it south Of the jaime
e and it was many months before
r siege reduced Richmond.

The returns from the Maine cleo
ton must have been of very de-
pressing character to Colonel
Roosevelt. His Progressive party
had a ticket in the field and
hoped to make fine showing, but
"skunked" seems to be the only
word available for describing the
result. The truth is that both the
Progressive party and Roosevelt are
on the toboggan. The former new.
err amounted to anything, and the
Colonel seems to have exuded al
of that magnetism which once gave
him such large following ant
there is no trace of enthusiasm lief
for him anywhere in the country
He has talked too much and poset
too long.

State School superintendent
Sheats has taken drastic and sum-
mary measures to check growing
evil among some of the negro school
teachers in Florida, implying both
incompetence and immortality, by re-
voking their certificates as teachers.
They were Systematically obtaining
money under false pretences by
sending in grossly inaccurate re-
ports of their school attendance
which showed the presence of every
pupil every day during the schoo
term. He gave the teachers fail
warning that they must send in cor
rect reports, but they failed to heet
It and off went their heads. Super
intendent Sheats has addressed ;
very kindly letter to the negr'
school teachers of the State full o
good advice and instruction con
corning this and other pertinen
matters and they would do we'll t
govern themselves by it. The oh
legations of conscience should be a
strong upon the negro teacher a
the white one, and there is some
thing peculiarly foul and repugnan
in deliberate dishonesty in an
teacher of children, no matter wha
the race or color of that teacher.

The Clearwater Sun says concern
ing roads that it is high time for
Florida to call a halt on hard-sur-
facing experiments" and that Flor
ida has spent $25 100000 finding
out that brick is the only material
that does not take more money ~
maintain than to build" Why
should we call halt until we have
ascertained the best way, and why
should we be confined tor brick roads
when all over England and the con-
tinent of Europe and in some of our
own States many thousands of miles
of durable and adequate country
roads are in daily use and those
roads are not made of brick? If we
have to wait here in Florida for a
good system of country roads until
the people vote bonds to build them
of brick, we will wait for very
many years to come. Brick are un-
doubtedly the best, but first cost
would be an obstacle the average
voter would not be able to get over
We may get few miles of show
roads" of that kind here and there
| in the State, and st. Johns county
has now launched upon an expert
ment of that kind, but something
cheaper than brick must be fount
| if we are to have good roads ovel
the State generally.

Years ago we told Albert w. Gill
christ that If he expected contin-
uation of favors from the people Of
Florida in the matter of electing
him to office he would have to mar
ry him a wife, as there is popular
prejudice, whether just or unjust,
that no man can give his fellow citi-
zens his best service until he has
executed a good matrimonial bond .
Albert fouted our advice, treated l,
with cold contempt as an imperti-
nent intrusion into his private af
fairs and went on his lonely ant
self-sufficient way, with the lure OF
the senatorial bauble making low
sweet music in his heart when h
should have been busy scoutin,
around for the infinitely richie
prize of a chummy little wife. H

future, and just to show him tn
