THE NEAR-SENATOR'S'L LEADERSHIP
Conner is absolutely and unalterably
opposed to such dema gogic leadership
as ex-near-Senator Glass, made so by
the grace of the governor of Alabama Is
undertaking in Alabama. The ex-near-
senator posing as the exponent of the
National Democracy in Alabama, IL
fighting at home against the vital prin-
cples of that government which protects
the common people and for which Pres
ident Wilson is making a winning fight
at washington. This principle is that
no power must be greater than the gov
ernment, that no power shall control
the government. and that the law shall
protect the people"
Governor Conner would make e forever
impossible that there should oe another
scene in Alabama like that recently en-
acted at Montgomery, where Charles
Lewis, Tyler Goodwin. Geo. Jones, Frank
Glass and the governor OF Alabama ma
nipulated the Democratic State commit

STAYING POWER IN WAR.

II the European war lasts long our great
Civil War it will be record of alternate victories
and defeats as that and success will belong
to the side that has the better staying powers as
was the case in our Civil War.
The first two years of that made gloomy
prospects for the North, for they a record of
many defeats frightened here and there by Victories
The next two years changed the aspect OF the war,
and ended with the surrender of Lee at Appomattox
We were nation entirely unprepared either with
trained army or war resources. We had to send
greenhorns into the field and put up, for the most
part with political generals There arsenas,
no supply depots. no guns worth speaking Of and no
organization Hardly anybody In the North could
ride horse, and for two years were practically
without cavalry. while Southerners were all expert
horsemen.
But the latent energies of the nation finally sup
piled everything-our soldiers got trained In the
field the generals learned the art OF after many
disastrous failures, and finally we had Grant and
Sheridan and Sherman and Thomas and other now
famous men to lead seasoned armies TO victory.
It was a long and dreary for the American
people north and south, of infinite sorrow and
of enormous loss and destruction But probably
Europe is to suffer to a much greater degree, not
only in human life and human misery, but in the
destruction of property and of its choicest treasures
and monuments The fate of Louvain is likely to be
the fate of other cities But the capacity to suffer and
endure which distinguished the North in the Civil
War may be the deciding factor in the present great
war And when the end finally comes what aspect
