was only begun, however, and the
schools will bot be definitely locat,

in the early part of August. One
good thing that the Board did was
the establishment of public

campus. Theae are a large mum.
ber of children living on the camp.

the paat. The cotton mills have
closed down and the children living
near these mills are now without

public school is badly needed in
this visinity, and the Que establish

children in thickly populated
area. 1t bids fair to deyelopes in

CONTRACTOR HARVEY
BEGINS WORK ON ROADS
Large Force and Equipment Start Work on Green's
boro Road at Adaton and Longview Road at
Longview-The Seven Mcadam Roads
Embraced in Contract will be
Rapidly Pushed Forward.

Work was begun this week on
the construction of the macadam.
lied highways in Beat One of this
county, and our system of model
highways will be carried through
to completion as rapidly as pos
sible. The roods are being build
by F. D. Harvey & Co., of Mem.
phis, under the supervision of Mr..
E. G. Thomas, civil engineer.
The Harvey company moved
their material, machinery and men
to the scene of operation Monday,
and Tuesday they were actively at
work. Mr.. Thomas and his assis-
tauts had set the grade stakes, and
made all necessary preparations
the week before. and when the
contractors got on the grounds
they found everything ready for
them, so they could begin opera
tions without a moments delay.
Mr.. F. D. Harvey is here in
person getting the work under
way, and will give the job his
close personal attention until COM
pletion, in order that the engineers s
specifications may be complied
with to the letter as the work pro-
crosses, and the completed system
Of roads may be turned over to the
Commissioners with as little delay
as is possible consistent with
thorough and painstaking work.
The Harvey Company has put

was held in the courthouse last
night for the purpose of considers

Main Street.
Hon. q. Ode Daniel was called
to the chair and presided over the
meeting.
A large crowd gathered and
practically all present expressed
themselves rs being heartily in
favor of making the improvements
which are so badly needed. Pro.
bahle cost of construction was dis
cussed, and various plans of con,
struction were suggested.
No definite action was taken on
the question but II committee.

1t Is certainly to be hoped that

needed, and when completed, will
add more to the city of StarkviIle
than anything else that could be
done. Now is the time when the
work should be done, as the work
can be carried on in cooperation

sioners can pay over to the city n
sum equal to the sum spent on the
same amount of roads out of the
city, and this can be used by the
city to aid in defrayilg the expense
of the Improvement, as Main street
is n part OF road that runs
through the town aud is being
macadamized in each direction in
the country by observation-disclosures.
Now is the only time that the city
can get cooperation from the Road
Commissioners in accordance with
our road laws. The street i'm
provement is badly needed, and the
work can be done cheaper now, in
all probability, than at any future
time. Plans for the work have
been submitted by the engineer,
Mr.. Il. G. Thomas, and show that
the work can be done at reason.
able cost. Let us have "A model

FREEDOM OF THE SEAS.

The position of Great Britain with regard 10
the commerce Of the United States is as directly
antagonistic to what this country holds TO De
international law as is the position Of Germany
with regard to its use of the submarine IN the
hating and the destruction Of merchant vessels.
In both cases those countries are taking the posi-
ton that they should be permitted TO aoape
existing laws to suit themselves, that IN the
midst Of conflict new rules of law should De
agreed upon for a belligerent nation as 1t holds
it should be.
In this condition England does no. desire that
Germany have it's way about submarine warfare
and Germany does not wish Great Britain 10
have it's way about blockading neutral ports
while the United States agrees with neither, and
holds that neither Germany or England has any
right to attempt to change the agreed-upon laws
of nations to suit themselves. Germany wants
to retaliate upon England and vice-vcrsa, while
the United States takes the correct position that
violation Of law by one belligerent does not JUS
tify violation Of it by the other. The pleading
of necessity by nations for changes is an ad-
mission that such changes would be violations.
The position being taken by the two bel
hgerent countries is one which this country
holds is not justified under the law. The United
States is contending for the freedom Of the seas,
for the recognition Of international law as it
stands, not as Germany and England would read
it to their advantage or change it to meet their
necessities" In his third note to Germany
upon issues raised by the sinking Of the Lusi-
tania President Wilson made the declaration
that this country must contend for the freedom
of the seas, that it would do this without COM
promise and at any cost. from whatever quarter
violated. In all the contentious made this coun-
try bases it's position upon the law, not upon
necessities of new conditions, or the "necessi-
ties to meet new conditions. This country seeks
to be just to all countries, and it demands that
it be accorded just treatment by all countries.
