BERLIN, Aug. PA woman Social

view held by many of her sex in Ger
many that the war viii bring German
women nearer the goal OF political
equality. She says:
1--WE warn the people of our party
not to cherish too many hopes and to
remember that every privilege which
has any value and brings us forward
must be won. The war has perhaps
brought us nearer to acknowledgment
in that the opponents Of female suf-
frage have been deprived of many of
their most seryiceable arguments, and,
above all, because the least interested
woman most clearly see how urgently
women citizens need political inhu-

through the vote The bare fact that
a war of such tremendous effect, such
widespread dimensions, and such pain
ful losses in every belligerent country
could have come to pass, must create

prevention Of future wars.

York County News Items.
CYorkville Enquirer. J

Since the county commission
ers at their meeting Wednesday
have definitely decided upon the
route of the Yorkville-Rock Hill
road, it is quite likely chat the
chaingang will be moved at
once, and the new camp will be
situated somewhere between
Yorkville and Fishing Creek
bridge. The camp will remain
in the vicinity of Yorkyille for a
period of eight or nine months.
There are at present about 45
convicts on the chaingang.
Magistrate A. }. Quinn of
Clover, accompanied by George
Sparrow, S. O. Gordon and G. H.
Hedrick, captured another moon
shine still near Kings Mountain
battle-ground yesterday. The
still was in operation when the
officers approached; but the
moonshiners got information of
the situation in time to get away
with the worm and other things
that were easily movable. The
posse destroyed lot of mash
with the still.

LOaveS Now Six Cents.

August Geilfuss, president of
the Southeastern Master Bakers
association, announced Monday
night that bread would be ad-
vanced in price from 5 cents to
6 cents a loaf at once over the
six States North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Tennessee and Florida en-
braced in the organization.
He said that bread was selling
for six cents in Wilmington,
Charlotte, Greensboro, Green
vile and Asheville. and that
price would become effective in
nj small towns throughout the
section Tuesday.
The advance in the price of
-four is responsible for the in
crease in the price of bread.
From the Spartanburg bakery
5000 loaves are shipped daily,
and, according to Mr.. Geilfuss,
raw -four contained in this out
put costs $62. 30 more per day
than it cost before war was de-
clared.

THURSDAY. FEB. VI, 1915.
Why the Double Standard

There are two very .stinct
classes of newspa~ - in this
count - eArremes-and the
public sets a different standard
for each! Just why, no one
knows, but it does. Of the one
it requires truthfulness, decency
and moderation. Of the other
it requires nothing-it just takes
what is handed out. and looks
for more. The great metropolitan
daily gathers up the news Of the
world and that news is read at
the breakfast table, or during
the day, or after the evening
meal. The reader seldom pauses
to remember that reporters and
editors have warped and colored
much of that news up to satisfy
the public craving for sensations.
1t may contain a few grains of
truth and few bushels of fake.
The country paper gathers up
the news of the home community
and sends it forth on press day.
That news must be TRUE, or
the editors reputation for We
racity is ruined and his career
of usefulness is at an end.
Faults that are condoned or en-
tirely overlooked in the big daily
are unanimously condemned in
the humble weekly. The city
daily often builds up a tre-
mendous circulation by pandering
to one of the worst elements IN
humanity the Unsuitable desire
for scandal. The country weekly
builds up its circulation by cater
ing to a higher plane of citizen
ship, by the dissemination of
facts in it's news columns, by a
rigid adherence to truthfulness
in its utterances. The world
has apparently learned to expect
about a certain amount of fakery,
exagelation, sensationalism and
sensuality in the metropolitan
daily though happily there are
n few dailies that are disappoint-
ing to their readers in this
respect, they are decent. OF the
country weekly it demands the
traversing of the straight and
narrow path-the elimination of
suggestive and questionable mat
ter-the publication of a sheet
which would not shock Christ if
he came to earth. Why the
double standard?

OLDEST RESIDENT OF
LEE COUNTY is DEAD

West Point, Feb. 3.-The oldest
resident of Lee county, Eliza Overton,
aged SO years, is dead at the home OF
her son, John T. Overton, near the
old hamlet of Clay Grove. She was
the last of the pioneers of the first
class of the Lee county old settlers
association, which included those who
had settled in the county prior to
July /, 1910
Eliza Bunner was born in old Vir-
ginia, March IS, 1917, and had she
been permitted to live two years, one
month and eighteen days longer, she
would have rounded out full CEN
fury. The ashes left from the burn
ing of old Fort Madison were scarcely
cold when she was born, and one or
two of the blackened chimneys OF
the fort were still standing when she
crossed the river there in 1888. Pre-
viously to her coming to the then Wis
consin territory, she lived short time
in Ohio. On the Goth day Of Septem-
Der, 1841, at West Point, she married
Elias Overton, who came to the county
in 1886.
Mrs. Overton had lived for seventy
years on the homestead where she
died. She was woman of many vir-
tues and sterling qualities and up to
her ninety-seventh birthday possessed
a remarkable memory Of il dividuals
local history, and incident of pioneer
days.

BUS DRIVER HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

Fl. Madison, Feb. 3.-Curtiss Ander-
son, bus driver for the Metropolitan
hotel, had a very narrow escape from
serious injury if not death Tuesday
afternoon as No. pulled out on the
Santa Fe.
Mr.. Anderson had assisted a lady
into one of the Pullmans and had
stopped to the door Of the car when
the train started. He then stepped
down on the lower step and hung to
the safety grips on the sides of the
door. The porter closed the door Of
the car and Mr.. Anderson was thrown
to the platform, striking on his shout
der. He rolled for short distance
and his head was thrown under the
train and across the track, but he
was able to scramble to safety by some
extensive wriggling. The wheels OF
the cars brushed his shoulder as the
cars went by. He was thoroughly
scared but otherwise none the worse
for his experience.

IOWA CITY LINEMAN
HAVING LOTS OF WORK

Iowa City, Feb. 3.-Lineman on the
telegraph and telephone companies
are Just beginning to straighten out
the damage caused by the sleet and
snow storm Of Monday and Tuesday.
The Western Union Telegraph Co.,
reports that it is having no trouble
with its wires, and that the lines all
over the country are passable to
messages. The Postal company is not
so fortunate, and is experiencing some
trouble in the western part of the
state.
The telephone company seems to be
in the worst predicament of all, and
the wet weather has caused a great
deal of cable trouble that is entirely
unavoidable. The chief difficulty seems
to be near Des Moines and Grinnell.
The sleet inflicted some damage on
lines in the county, but these are rap
idly being repaired.

NEW DEVELOPMENTS
IN VAN HORN CASE

Mason City, Feb. 3.-Another sensa-
tional development in the supposed
murder of Chester Van Horn came to
light when Rollo Van Horn, brother Of
the dead man, was arrested and placed
in Jail here. The arrest was made at
the Van Horn home seven miles south
west of Clear Lake. He was brought
to the Jail at 4 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing.
At the time of Mrs. Chester Van
Horns arrest on charge of having
shot and killed her husband, it devel-
oped that Mrs. Van Horn and the
brother Rollo had been on more or
less friendly terms. Van Horn ap-
peared as witness in behalf OF
Mrs. Van Horn at the preliminary
hearing here, and testified that he he
lieved Mrs. Van Horn to be mentally
unsound at the present time.
Van Horns arrest at this time is
supposed to have been made on the
strength of statements given by Mrs.
Chester Van Horn after she was sur
rendered by her bondsmen and e.
turned to the county Jail from Des
Moines, where she had been receiving
treatment In sanatorium
The grand jury is now Investigating
the latest phase of the case.
