ARMY DENOUNCED
BY GERMAN DEPUTY
Herr Liebknecht Says Out
RACES in Belgium Are
Work of Few.
iBy cable to The Tribune. ]

Antwerp, Sept. 24.-From NJ. Camille
huysmans, one Of the Belgian Social
ist deputies, it was learned to-day that
Herr Liebknecht, the famous German
Socialist Deputy, had just made a tour
CT the Belgian provinces now occupied
by the Germans to ascertain at first
hand the facts as to the conduct Of
the German army. He has conveyed to
u. Huysmans his impressions after
seeing Louysin, Termondc, Wavre and
other places sacked by his countrymen.
Herr Liebknecht was one Of the
fourteen German deputies who voted
in opposition to war, and his European
reputation is identified with German
intcllectualism rather than Prussian
militarism. Nevertheless, he is patri-
otto German to the core, and his judg-
ment, which condemns most strongly
the outragcs at Louvsin and elsewhere,
may be taken as final. Herr LIeb-
knccht said repeatedly to VI. Hugs
mans that he shared to the full the IN
dignation Of the Belgisns at the out
RACES on civilians and the destruction
of art.
lie was plunged into grief and
shocked profoundly at the cOntempila-
ton of evidence OF such gross nus
deeds, and desired the world to be,
licvc. as he believed, that they. DID
not represent in any sense the feelings
or wishes of the German people. but
we're rather the unhappy work OF
few. lie concludes BY saying that
these outrages on civilization would
leave bad mark on the German name
for generations.
The fact that Herr Liebknecht made
this tour and came to such eonclu
gions, az any civilized observer wouid
he forced TO, may be taken as an indi-
cation that in Germany there is some
awakening Of the people to the mad
ness and criminality Of the course into
,yhlch the militarist caste has led them.

or hanged, ard the people are there
fore entirely bereft Of leaders.
Leaders Of Learning Tortured.
In their attack on the culture Of the
people tho Austrians have imprisoned,
tortured or hanged all the leaders of
learning and civilization Of the Scrvian
and Croatian people in Austria-Hun-
gary. All Sevo-CroRtS and Slovenes
Of standing or reputation in the politi-
cal, economic, scientific or literary life
OF the people have been robbed of their
possessions and positions,
As many as 10000 farmers, artisans
and citizens have been imprisoned as
hostages, and moro than 1000 persons
of the learned and better educated
classes have shared the same fate.
Many Servians who were on holi-
days or studying in Germany have
been taken prisoners, and nobody
knows what has become Of them. II is
known for fact that in the early days
of the war thirty Servians were shot
at LindRu, a place near the Bavarian.
Swiss boundary.
General Butnik, head of the Servian
General staff, who was staying at a
watering place in Steeiermac, was
thrown into prison, struck to the
ground and severely beaten by two
Austrian policemen. Similar deeds
have been perpetrated in all the south
erh Slavonic parts of Austria Hungary,
in kran and even in Bohemia.
For two days Prague was in a state
Of revolution. Slsvonic regiments were
in open revolt. During these days the
same military terror reigncd there as
in Bosnia.
Professors Reported shot.
Several university professors and
authors have been sentenced to die,
and Professors Msssaryk and Kramarr,
members Of parliament, although
counted as loyal Austrians, arc both
reported to have been shot. Many
other prominent political or literary
men Of Slav nationality have been inn
prisoned or put to death. Large num-
bers Of them are in fortresses or other
public buildings. II these latter should
happen to be attacked by tha Servians
it means death for the prisoners. lndi-
rectly, therefore, the Servians have to
hit their own brethren, the creators of
southern Slavonic civilization.
The battle of the Drina, however,
means the downfall of the Hapsburgs,
and shock has been sent through the
whole foundations of the Dual Mon

The Austrians were intrenched on

from a broad and unsheltered plain.
The Russians were forced to charge
across this open plain in the face Of a

were tremendous and they were re-
pulsed many times, until finally their
guns found the range; then their
charge was successful.

of it follows:
Life will soon become uncomfortable
here. We have been for eight days
holding a village, where at least eight
hundred shells fall every day. We are
IN the thick of the horrors of war. The
enemy occupies the river ford and we
have been told to dislodge him.
-Four days back we made night
sortie, and assisted at the most awful
outchery you can conceive. We made
bayonet charge in pitch darkness,
talking to keep in touch each with an
other. l had a narrow shave myself,
Cor a German got my rife away and
fired at me pOintblank, but the bullet
only went through my knapsack.

aay, for the enemy played US most
scurvy trick by placing a lot Of French
prisoners in front Of his men and
forcing them at the swords point to
cry I'm avantn We trustingly ad
vanced accordingly right on to their
trenches.

lowed. Our own artillery had TO bonn

wounded there.

though, and if the enemy violates all
the rules of war and commits atroci-
ties it must be because he feels he has

Telling of the new industry that

the HERALD last week gave some
facts and figures on the growing
of vegetables for market in that
vicinity. "Land just south of
the town previously considered of
little value and offered at SO to
IS nm acre Immediately advanced
in price, when the idea of raising
vegetables was taken up. In a
very short time it commanded $50
an acre, and we doubt If any of it
can now be purchased at $50 an
acre" The HERALD says, however
that nothing like the acreage that
should be used is under cultiva-
ton and that there is ample field
for many other men to start in
raising vegetables in that neigh
horhood. Tomatoes, eggplant,
cucumbers, beans, potatoes, let
tuce, peppers and many other good
things are raised successfully in
Punta Gorda.

Keep the Town Healthy

The life of this town, like the
life of a human being should he
held sacred by every one who
calls it home. This town, like
the human being, needs nourish-
ment and care if it it to become a
factor in things material. A
town is as likely to become Ill, SO
to speak, as q man. woman or
child. Who is to help ii regain a
healthy and vigorous condition,
if not those who make it their
home? The ills of a town are, for
the most part, of such nature
that they can be prevented, and
those which are not can be cured.
There is remedy for every dis
ease likely to inoculate town.
Physiology teaches that clean
illness is u necessary adjunct to the
human body. This is true of this
town. Now that a systematic
movement has been started for
making Punta Gorda the cleanest
town in Florida, let every one
lend it their encouragement. How
about refuse and garbage? Is
your backyard or alley such that
you are not ashamed of either!
Disease and sickness Turk in UNI
clean places. Keep in mind the
streets too.
And speaking of the streets,
would you travel over II bud street
or road if there were a better
way to go! Ii your neighbor had
a truck farm from which he plan
ned to sell you and yolr other
neighbors his produce, and you
and your neighbors sent else
where for yonr produce, could
the truck gardner continue to
raise produce with the same end
in view? If your home mer-
chants have purchased goods and
brought them here for your con-
venience and you send to the
northern mail order houses for
the very same articles which the
home merchant carries, can he
consistently continue in his efforts
to serve you?
Help keep this town healthy,
both in a sanitary and business
way; lend your effort towards the
improvements necessary to make
the town II beacon. light-a leader
among towns instead of trailer. i
Ii this town is good enough for
you to live in. it is unworthy of
you to refuse to help in keeping
it healthy.

The Revenue License

The DeFuniak Breeze sums mp
the license method for collecting
revenues as follows:
The Breeze is always and unal-
terably opposed to the method of
of raising revenue.
1t is unfair, unjust and undemo-
cratic.
1t is unjust because it is double
taxation.
1t is unfair because it places an
additional burden on productive
industry.
1t is undemocratic because it is
uneq ual in its form and applica-
ton.
Very correctly stated indeed.
There is no logic or fairness or
Justice of any kind in the license
system, except where licenses are
levied for restrictive purposes.
The only reasons for the license
system are two: First we need the
money; second, it is an easy way
to get it. Pensacola Journal.
