After the Governor"

Editor the News:-In your issue of
last week l notice a communication
from the pen of Hon. Harry M.Smyth.
IN which he attempts to berate me on
account of recent article of mine.
published in the Roanoke Times. Mr..
Smythe declares that the only inter
est which | have in the Ninth dis
trict appears to be subsidiary to
that of Carter Glass and w. A. Jones.
Now,Just why gentleman OF Mr..
Smythe's learning and intelligence
should make such a rash, uncailed for
statement, | cannot tell. The fact is,
that have been located in this coun-
ty for some years, but have retained
my citizenship in my old home county,
Gckenson), and at each succeeding
election / have returned there and
voted the Democratic ticket, and |
expect to return and vote for Hon. R.
Tate Irvine in November. The Dem
ocrats of my home county evidently
have higher opinion of my loyalty
to the Ninth than Mr.. Smythe, for
they elected me as a delegate to the
democratic State convention held in
Norfolk in 1912, and / was also del
egate to the ninth district convention
held in the city of Bristol in 1912 and
1914, and in both represented my
county on the resolutions committee.
But those who know me best will dis
regard the statements of Mr.. Smythe,
for they are nothing more or less than
the fanciful creations of his fertile
brain.
If he means to insinuate that / am
held in subsection to the wishes and
mandates of Carter Glass, w. A.
Jones or any other person, i hurl the
statement back as an untruth. No

Rocky Mount, Va.

In days of old when knights were
glad to offer arms and lives for the
honor or cause of ladies', gallant and
heroic deeds were done. But no
knight, lord, king, or warrior or COM
panion of the Round TABLE ever did
for love of woman or in homage to
weakness thing more splendid than
was done Sunday by John Mouchneck,
Raymond Tinney and John Murphy,
of Philadelphia. They were humble
young men, probably of the working
class. In boat in the Schuylkill riv-
er two girls and two other women and
and far from shore. they saw the
boat was leaking so freely that it
must sink unless lighteneh. These
three deliberately went overheard to
certain death, for none could swim.
All five men volunteered to drown
to save the women, but the three
named went down first. The frail
craft capsized, but the remaining two
men caught hold of it and succeeded
in saving the girls. Tinney was en-
gagged to be married to one of these,
but he told her good bye and he
jumped.
There is nothing finer than that in
the history of the world, nothing
more beautiful. These men honored
manhood and humanity, illustrated
in one magnificent moment all that
is noblest and best in our race

PUNISHMENT NOT ADEQUATE.

A correspondent asks: "How is it
about these collisions at sea? Are
not the oceans and CULTS wide enough
for two ships to pass each other with
out coliding? ?"
1t is difficult for landsmen to un-
derstand why and how collisions
should occur in the open sea, or gulf,
OF even in the rivers, when there APP
pears TO be almost unlimited room.
Vessels are steered by the compass.
The channels, or what corresponds
to tracks on the land are all distinct
~ marked, and mapped, and we'll
known to the pilots, and it does seem
that when such collisions as the re-
cent one in which nearly q thousand
people went down with the ship
should not have occurred and would
not had reasonable care beenexcr-
cised. Every such accident cannot but
be the result of somebody's careless
ness or ignorance or both. Why not
double track" the seas? That is.
could not certain courses be marked
and mapped for outgoing vessels and
the same for incoming ones, and in
this way collisions be avoided, the
same rs on the railroads? We are
not familiar with such matters, but.
at any rate such fearful calamiti1s
as are becoming more and more com
mon on sea should he guarded against
by every possible, conceivable means.

party or parties found, upon clear
and unmistakablc evidence to have
been responsible for the calamity

For certainly true it is, that such nc.
cidents and calamities as the sinkin..

not have occurred if proper care anc
diligence had been exercised. A few
heavy, sever penalties inflicted upon
the guilty parties would reduce The
number of these calamities.

BLAME FOR GREAT BRITAIN
A Worker for Peace Finds Sympathy for Germany

torable pathos becomes apparent Of the terrible
situation due to different national psychologists and
MISUNDERSTANDING Many English men and women
arc bravely trying to be fair and to distinguish be-
tween theenemy's government and its people. There
is doubtless much more impartial judgment TO be
found in England than elsewhere. / know score Of
persons like Hirst, of "Thc Economist; Norman An
CELL and john A. Hobson the eminent writer on poll

war az human beings can be- They fully realize that
while Prussian militarsm is the most menacing Of
all miltarsmS, Great Britains policy in past years
does not exempt her from criticism.

brilliant Cambridge graduate put IT, has lied to US. y
was astounded to be told to-day by Canadian resi-
dent here, university man. i believe II any nation
has clear now it is Germany. If you want the
history of this war you must 90 back forty years.
More than any politician here IN Germany he
condemned the Harmswo-th papers, which have so
persstenty poisoned the public mind and filled Eng
land with suspicion and hatred of Germany. David
Starr Jordan said to me: AT the last England had
no choice between virtue and unrIghteousnesS; she
had to choose between two degrees of unrighteous-
ness"
Many here are studying General Bernhardi's devil
sh doctrine of force, assuming wildly that it is the
doctrine of Germany a whole. Every sober Ger
man, of course, counts Bernhardis writings utterly
extreme, though when comes in any country the
militarists instantly dominate and public opinion be-
comes consolidated behind them. One can imagine

10. be surprised at the sequel. For 1t
must ever be remembered that Chris
tianity was instituted TO ameIiorate,
not to supcrselc, human nature; that
competition between individuals, faml-
lies, communities and nations Is an m
stinctiyc factor Of the PrOvidential
economy; and that this competition, no
matter of what species or how care
fully directed and vigorously drilled, Is
liable TO crupt at any climax
The Judaist will admit that war, so
far from being contradictory to spirit
Lality, was prosecuted by the Jews at
the very cruv Of their privileged init
macy with Jehovah; and 1t would be

calamity rs proving the lnetticacy OF
Christianity TO reflect that their own
sublime condition OF freedom OF
thought and speech was attained by
the flowing Of blood and tears, which
are not an artificial agony of man, but
Natures bitter travail in the produc-
ton Of some new thing for mankind,
the birth OF boon we did not have
before.
After the war is concluded the

era of energy, and the world Will rec

Supplement Prayer with Works

Miss Mabel Choate makes the suggestion that
on Sunday, October 4, the day designated by Presl-
dent Wilson as a day Of prayer for peace, all the
churches in the land take up collections for the
Red Cross 1t is an excellent suggestion, which
should be adopted everywhere.
The Red Cross work is unsectarian 1t makes
no distinction Of race. 1t is broad labor of help
fulness for suffering humanity. The need for aid
is great-pcrhaps not in this generation has there
been such need, and as this dread war continues
want and misery and disease will increase and the
lists Of wounded grow longer daily. Out Of Us
abundance this country, fortunately spared wars
horrors, should contribute bountifuly to aid
stricken Europe, and there could not he better
method or occasion than the church collections On
the day of prayer for peace

The Crisis for Railroads and Their
Re6ulatiOn.

The announcement that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has rcopcncd the railroad rate case is
welcome. But why month before hearings: And
why hearings at ALL except rs n mere fOrmality in
compliance with the law? We surely hope that
no such inquiry as that which recently concluded
is to prCccdc the commissions decision in the pres
cnt case. The commission has the subject in its
hands. 1t may restrict objections to the rail
roads request within reasonable limits. 1t may
readily avoid the false advisers whose counsel it
accepted in the recent inquiry. II need not he
led upon false trails The question before it IS
perfectly plain: Are the railroads face to face
with crisis a result Of the war? That qucs-
ton may hc answered quickly. and there should
he more delay about answering it than observ-
ancc Of the due formalitics requires
This is not only q crisis for the railroads. This
is u crisis for public regulation. If the commission
is not able TO deal quickly with the issues before it
public regulation is a failure. Emergencies will
arise and it is necessary that they he met at once
If the public control Of rates prevents them from
being met Mt once, if long debate is always neccs-
sary at which all sorts of Missionaries must be
heard respectfully then the public control Of rates
will have to give way as impracticable.

OF state Of war to exert any "2preciRbe influence
on the programme Of the ruling classes
1t has been represented that the Social Demo
cratic Deputies in the Relchstag were unit In
approving the big war credits, But DR.. Carl Leb-
knecht the Social Democratic leader, is now quoted
in the "Bdrger Zeltung" OF Bremen, as denying
that statement He is reported as saying:
In order to prevent the dissemination of an mad
missible legend | feel II to be my duty to put on
record the fact that the issues involved gave rise to
Numerically opposite views within our parliament
tsry party and these opposing views found express
sion with violence hitherto unknown in our delio-
eratonS is also entirely untrue 10 say that ASSEM-
to the war credits was given unanimously.
1t would have been surprising If the Social
Democratic element had acQulcsced without pro-
test in war which, If successful, would gOrify
militarsm and make its exactions still more ex-
cessive There is still in Germany rallying point
for the opponents OF the blood and iron and
okanonen- futtcr'' theories Of the Kaiser and the
military party If the German armies are de-
feated and German aggressiveness is tanned, there
may be a strong popular reaction toward more LID
eral and democratic methods Of government. But
it would be idle to expect what is popularity known
as German culture" to lead in that reaction Ger
many would owe its modernizatOn rather TO the
liberal nrolctarat which, unlike It's Culture" mas
