In Memoriam.

Mrs. ]. W. Stevens, the subject
of this sketch, was born July 3,
1877, and departed this life
Jan. "a, 1915. She was a daugh-
ter OF the late Calvin Ragan, OF
Meat Camp. She leaves a hus-
band, triplett babes, a little boy,
two sisters and a host OF friends
to mourn her departure,
She professd faith in Christ and
joined the Baptist church at
Meat Camp and lived q, devoted,
christian life until death. She al
ways had a kind word for every
one, and her heart went out
in sympathy to those in sorrow
or distress.
Dear Mother and loved ones,
you will greet her no more in
this world, but be cheered by the
assurance that, if faithful to the
end, you will greet herin a fai rel
cline where sickness and death
never enters.
Her remains were laid to rest
near her home in Carter county,
Tenn. May the great Comforter
sustain the bereaved ones.

The Broader: vl.x.

The war in Europe has proba-
bly effected the United Statesless
than any OF the other neutrul
powers OF the world, yet all fair.
minded people must admit that
the country in'general has been
more a less depressed, in some
localities rather seriously, by
this the greatest struggle in the
history of the world.
We regret to see Republican
newspapers, from purely politi-
cal motives, continually harping
on conditions, and charging up
everything to the Democratic ad-
ministration. The editors of
these partisan papers have too
much intelligence to believe their
own misleading statements and
unpatriotic arguments, and they
reflect upon the intelligence OF
their constituency in keeping up
a perpetual agitation. 1t is re-
f.eshing. however to note that
that the larger newspapers, re-
gardless, OF party affiliation, are
more liberal in their views and
are patriotic enough to to work
for the upbuilding and better
ment of the country at large in
stead of adding to a period of
depression brought about by
conditions entirely beyond the
control OF our government. Tnis
from the Milwaukee Journal, Re-
publican, is sensible and timely.
Some of the Tories who have
been scolding President Wilson
for not keeping the American
dinner pail full should be greatly
enlightened by reading a little
industrial history now being
made in Canada. 1t would re-
veal, for instance, that the Grand
Trunk Railroad purposes to re-
duce wages of 1000 employees.
1t might be added that the ear
nings of the Canadian Pacific
have fallen off many millions
since the outbreak OF the war.
Canadian cities have hosts ofun-
employed men in spite of the in
dustries that have been stimulac:
ted by the demand for war ma.
terialS.
This in Canada, the State where
the corporations areSsb ''fairly
treated" where railroad and
trust commissions are dot tread
ing on the heels of the benehcent
rulers OF Big Business. With all
these wholesome Canadian laws,
carefully designed to promoteand
encourage expansion OF trade,
Canada still has a depression.
Why not blame Mr.. Wilson for
the depression in Canada as we'll
as that in the United States?
Since any Democratic Executive
must bear the brunt of crop f'il-
ures and panics both before and
after his administration, why not
unload the depression in Canada
upon his shoulders us well? Why

Shipping men, who cannot
meet the demand for vessels for
the export trade, report an un-
precedented boom in the ship
building yards on the Atlantic
coast. Every plant'is said to be
swamped with orders for new
vessels, although over 125 YES
