GREAT DRIVE NOT STOPPED.
English and French Continue to pre..
Forward.

London Sept. 27.-The third day of
the great offensive of the French and
British forces in the west saw no
abatement in the fl sting. Indeed the
battle probably has taken on a more
desperate character, for the Germans,
by numerous and vicious c~ounter-at-
tacks, have been endeavoring to re-
gain their lost ground.
The German counter-attacks north
west OF Hulluch have been repulsed
with heavy losses, according to the
British official report, which adds that
to the East OF Loos the British offens.
I've is progressing.
In Berlin it is officially asserted
The allied offensive southeast of Lille
has been stopped and that north and
south Of Loos and near Souchez
neeVy British attacks have been put
down with sanguinary losses.

LET HENRY FIX IT."

A prominent citizen was asked the
other day about the several complex
questions of taxation now being con-
sidered in Richmond, and replied, "Let
Henry fix it. Whatever he does will
suit me-" Governor Stuart is prac-
teal man, and knows as well, perhaps
better, than any other citizen in the
State, what property is worth, and
what tax it should carry. A question
which is SO complex and puzzling,
even to the leading men of the State,
is little understood by the rank and
file, and great weight and considera-
ton should be given to the opinions
and recommendation of such men
as Governor Stuart, and Hon. Frank
Buchanan. Let these men "fx H.

THE POLL TAX BILL.

A bill now before the legislature to
force the payment of poll taxes by
law, and reaching back to include
unpaid poll taxes, ought not to pass.
1t may be that to make the amount of
the poll tax Il lien upon property the
same as other taxes, has some show
of reason in it, but to make the law
retroactive is all wrong, unwise and
impolitic. We vote for tthc entire alb
clifton of the poll tax as Il qualifica-
ton for voting, and if imposed ut all
let all of it go to the school fund.
The bill, as we understand it, nov
before the Legislature, should be killed
as dead as door nail.

WHY NOT THE u. s.?

If every country on earth, of any i'm
portance whatever, finds it profitable
to have and maintain ships on the
seas, why not the United States. as
we'll? Why should exporters pay
hundreds of thousands of dollars to
foreign ships, in freight bills? How
ever, the present hip-purchasing bill
now before Congress seems to involve
some complications. The bill author
ICES the purchase of a number of
ships belonging to Germany and Aus
tria now held in the harbors of the
United States. 1t is held by oppo-
nents of the bill that this purchase
would be violation of the laws of
neutrality, in that the money paid for
the ships would be virtually aiding n
beiligerent country. A question of
the laws of neutrality and the right of
a neutral nation involved, is now in
the controversy and seems to have be-
come one of politics, pure and simple.
We think the country can safely trust
the matter toMr. Wilson, and his cab
met TO do nothing rash.

BUYING FOR CASH OR CREDIT.

We all, who have to buy things,
have an idea that if we pay cash for
goods we get them cheaper. We
know we ought to, but do we? Not
on your life. Don't you fool yourself
There is no encouragement, so far as
cost is concerned, to pay cash far
your goods. A merchant was asked
about this credit business. "You sell
on long credit, many of your custom
ers paying up once II year.? "Yes,"
he said, eve carry n large number Of
customers from six to twelve MONTHS"
"Of course you have to nharge little
more for your goods to cover interest
charges on these standing accounts?"
Yes" he said, eve could sell cheaper.
of course, if people paid cash." Just
then II customer came in and asked the
price of Il pair of shoes. The price
was given, $3.50. The shoes were
bought, and as the customer left she
said, "just charge it," and the mer-
chant charged it. A few days later
went to the same store and bought
Il pair of shoes for $3.50 just like the
others referred to, and paid cash. Did
| get Il rebate? Not much. Do
merchants sell cheaper to people who
pay cash? Not often. They make
the cash customer pay the interest on
the credit customers account. There is
no encouragement held out to the fell
low who wants topay cash, so far as
the price goes.
