Coed News From Maine.

The election in Maine was the first
important contest of its kind since
the completion of the principal fea-
lures of the Democratic legislative
program at Washington. In the cam
paign which preceded it the Wilson
administration and its record to date
were made the principle issue by the
speakers of national reputation sent
to Maine by all three parties. If
President Wilson's achievements, in
cooperation with a Democratic con-
gress, had failed to measure up to the
demands of the coutry, some evidence
of this reasonably might have been
expected to reveal itself in the Maine
election returns.
The signs of the reaction that has
been predicted, principally by suffer-
ers from the abolition of tariff favor
itism, are not manifest in the fig
ures. A Democratic governor is cho-
sen to replace n Republican and the
Congressional delegation stands as
in the present House, the three Re-
publicans and one Democrat having
been reelected.
The Maine election has it's lessons
for the rest of the country. 1t dem
onstrates beyond peradventure that
the Democrats here and elsewhere
need not be afraid to go before the
people resting on the record of the
Wilson administration. The Presi-
dent and the Congress have made
good, and the coutry, turning deaf
ear to their traducers, will stand be-
hind Observation-Disclosures Record.

AFTER GOOD ROADS.
Mcdowell County to Vote on Bond
Issue OF SIG5.OOO.

McuoWel county TO Vote on Bond
Issue of SlG5,0O0.
Mcdowell Recorder: Tuesday was
big day for the good roads advo-
Gates of Big Creek district, when C,
a. Bailey presented to the County
Court the petition of himself and 90
other legal voters and freeholdcrs of
said district, asking that the propo-
sition of the issuance of bonds of said
Maglstcrlal district for the purpose OF
constructing public roads in that dis
trict.
The proposed road is to be graded
dirt road beginning at the Sandy Riv-
er district line running up Dry Fork
TO the town of English and from En-
giish an improved public highway up
Dry Fork by the town of Bcrwind and
Canebrake and thence across the
mountain to Jacobs Fork and ex-
tending up jacobs Fork to the Vir-
ginia line.
The order entered in pursuance of
tins petition sets the time of voting
at the next general election, being the
Srd day of November.
1t will be recalled that sometime
ego certain of the citizens of that
district came to the county court
NS"ing for $4,000 in bonds but were
70 d that $l65,000 was MS much rs the
sia.lict could issue at this time, un-
.er the law. The disappointment ex-
pressed by them ut that time was
keen, and they didn't fail to show
that they wanted the roads and the
bonds bad enough to say so, but af-
ter mature reflection they decided
like King George that half n loaf is
better than none.
This road would be of great CON
venicncc and material profit to the
people of this district and il is hoped
the bond issue will carry and every
thing he done to carry forward this
work with speed and economy.

WHAT mas FAILED.
Vail Street Journnl

Nearly nineteen hundred wears ago
the spirit of God descended upon the
Apostles II those men could have
known that in nineteen centuries %
per cent. of the population OF Europe
would be Christian il not profcssedly
of the various branches of the faith,
ut least in standards and conceptions
of conduct, would they not have re-
garded it as greater fultilmcnt than
the miracle of the Pentecost?
And would they not have said that
the Prince of Peace had come 60 reign
and that the world would come to take
up arms no more? Would they have
believed it possible that eighteen ma
tons, all professedly Christian, would
be embarked upon war full of
bitterness and acrimony, conducted
with ruthlessness not inferior to the
historical invasion of the Turks.
What has failed? If our faith is
worth anything at all, we cannot sup
pose that Christianity has failed. The
question is one of last Importance to
commence, industry and finance, to
say nothing of the administration of
the law. People are not, in matters of
personal conduct, questions of honor
and just dealing, governed by stat
utes or police but by something subtler
that sanction which we call public
opinion. If Christianity has failed;
what is there to take its place?
No thoughtful person really believ-
ing the high moral principles he pro-
fesses can fail to see that the cause
of this terrifying lapse from right
eousness is the negation of Chris
tianity. 1t is the dedication of Force.
The German of Carlyle was humble,
revercnt, industrious, brave, but by
no means warlikc; loving peace and
his home and his country, rs man
should love those things. But the mod
ern war machine has changed all this.
II has substituted for these standards
so voluntary and so strong, the rigid
discipline of the drill sergeant, the reg
ulation of the individual down TO one
common level, the gradual substtitu-
ton of standard inferior, in some
respects, to that of the Mohammedan
invaders of the middle ages.
1t is these standards that the world
is fighting, not Il new and different
kind of culture, hut Il negation of cul-
turc in its trucst and best sense.
Progress is not mechanical, but moral.
1t is idle to suppose that whine the
war is over the incalculab!e mischief
of these false ideals can be rcmedied
in Il short time. They must neces-
sarily survive until slow moving
new body of progress is restored.
1t is for this reason that peace
without disarmament is unthinkable.
All the Christianity we have, or that
we can ever attain, is disposed and
defined, if the conditions which led up
to the present war are allowed TO sur
vive. An armed peace will be victory
for the forces of wrong, and will pc r
petuatc those things which have made
so deadly an inroad upon the worlds
resources of justice and righteousness.

While Mr.. Slemp would have the

regrets the part he played in the re-
dictionary game Mt Chicago, when Taft

methods which Colonel Roosevelt has

not yet been healed. There seems to
be no common ground upon which

may get together. In all probability
Colonel Roosevelt will again be the
Progressive candidate for President,
while the Republicans will nominate a

CATHEDRAL HELD MANY AN
GENT TREASURES.


Both history and art suffer an ir-
reparable loss if the famous Cathe-
dral ut Rheims has been destroyed.
1t was universally conceded to be the
most wonderful piece of Gothic arch
itecture in existence a perfect spcci-
men of combined grace and grandeur.
Begun in 1912 on the site of an
earlier church which had been built
by Robert de Courcy, the construc-
ton of the cathedral was continued
at intervals down to the fifteenth
century. The west front, begun about
1241, was pronounced the most beau
tiful structure produced anywhere in
the middle ages, particularly because
of its deeply recessed triple portal
and magnificent rose window forty
feet in diameter. This window, it is
said, was torn away by a German
shell.
All the Kings of France from Phillip
III. down to Charles X were crowned
in the Cathedral of Rheims, and it
was bfore the great alter there that
Jeanne dare Stood, banner in hand
after her victorious career, to witness
the coronation of Charles VII, which
marked the fulfilment of her vision
And it was in front of that alter that
she knelt before him and begged the
gentle king to allow her to return to
her fiocks."
Thorn of Holy Crown There.
The treasures within the Cathedra
were no less wonderful than the struc
ture iteself. It's sculpture, stained
glass and statuary were unsurpassed
Also it contained church plate of thu
early centuries, reliquaries containing
