In Georgia the mob believed that Frank was
guilty and it insisted that it's belief override the
verdict of the impartial governor, and overwhelm
that Frank was guilty. Mob spirit was arrayed
against orderly processes. #k#
In Arizona Hunt has insisted that the laws of the
state be suspended and that the verdics Of uries and
sentences OF courts-as well the emphatic verdict
OF the people the expressed the polls be
set aside and his own will substituted for them.
A mob is not only menace to individual JUS
tice, but it is menace to organized society. In
the latter respect at least, if not in the former,
Hunt is whit better than the Georgia mob that
nowled around the home of the courageous Slaton
gave voice its passion t surged around
Insofar as he seeks to override the verdict of
tho courts and the people Of Arizona he is on the
same plane with the 'lifer' who attempted to stab
the Jew to death at Milledgeville. The blind par
tisans Oh the governor who urge him in his eff
forts suspend the laws of the state, will
life, whereas Hunt seeks to lives. In its larger
aspect each sought nullify the will of society
Of two attem pts that of Hunt is far damag
ing il is consequences In all it's essentials Hunts
methods have been the same as those of the mob,
for since he became governor he has predicat-
cies and spreless sentiment.
Fu7t deserves the name of the Mob Governor.

GREAT CHANCE in SENTIMENT

One of the most gratifying phenomena of pub
lie opinion is the practically overwhelming sentiment
in favor fthis country adopting policy Of prep
aredness for military and naval defense e.; The
great is unquestiorably responsible. 1t has
had the effect that great CONGREGATIONS have in
arousing public realization Of the necessity for ade
quate insurance. Less than ago the president
read message to Congress that afforded much COM
fort the fatuous pacists The last annual report
Of the secretary of the navy made light of the
concentrations Of the general board and contained
assurances of security which were not based the
actual condition any branch of the navy. Assem-
ing Illegal authority. he threatened courtmartial
against any naval official who should dare to tell
the country of true conditions. Only of the
presidents official family faced conditions and bas
ed his recommendations on actual needs. This
was the secretary of war. In his first report, in
1913, he showed an indifference to military needs
He even suggested that this country pay no atten-
ton to military aeronautics until other nations
developed the art of aviation. But as he became
familiar with conditions, he came out boldly for
adequate military preparedness regardless of the
attitude of his chief and colleagues.
The campaign for preparedness generally
carried by private citizens and minority members
Of congress, aided by the logic of events Now
everybody, except the incorigible paciists, in
line. The last congress went beyond the
n-endations of the secretary of the navy. He APP
pears to have been converted and will take an ad-
yanoed position in his next report. He is now busy
organizing board of civilian advisors encourage
and pass upon naval inventions. The speaker of
the House has declared for doubling the number of
students at West Point and for assignment regu-
lar army officers to private schools. The chairman
of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
has given ringing interview in favor of prepared
ness. Public sentiment is aroused throughout the
entire country, not in favor of "mitarsm" the
bugaboo Mr.. Bryan raised in the campaign of 19O0
but for the establishment and maintenance of suff-
cient military and naval force to protect this nations
vital interests.

GREAT BRITAIN our BEST CUSTOMER

Our note to Germany indicated clearly that any
more of her criminal and murderous acts destroy
ing American citizens will not be tolerated, but
protest to Great Britain deals with very different
subject which is merely civil" and not criminal
matter. However, the Southern cotton states
should not forget that there are 80 million cotton
spindles in Europa and of these Germany and Aus
ria have only 16 million which is therefore only
fifth of the total while Great Britain, which is our
best and important customer has Sc million
spindles. So, Great Britain a great deal more
OF cotton than all the rest of Europe combined
and the Southern cotton states and the Southern
cotton planters who guilty of endeavoring to
elnbarrass Great Britain thereby trying nure
their greatest and most valuable customer and
friend. Furthermore than million bales of
cotton have been shipped to Europe since the war
began. Much mora than hoped for. Whose
ships were they sent in? Nearly every bale of cot
ton has been shipped in British ships 1T is well
for cotton planters to ascertain who their best
friends are before they kill goose that lays the
GOLDEN eggs for them. If Germany should crush
Great Britain the cotton planters would be all bank
rupts.

This is the third or fourth attempt that has been
made in recent years by the Western Federation to

said:
aOne of the most significant events of
