Possibilities of Country Union.

Thirty years have dawned and waned
During all that time the Woman's Chris
tan Temperance Union has been, thru
one of its departments, aggressively
pushing the movement for international
peace. We believe the welfare OF every
living man would be promoted econom-
ically, and at the same time suffering,
privation and intolerable hardships
would be taken from women and chill
dren.
We began to think our dreams had a
chance to come true, but in the midst
of our past summer our papers report
ed that almost the whole of European
nations were in a death grappe with
each other.
We shudder indeed at the thought of
the bloodshed and the horrible up
turned faces, ghastly in the agonies of
death. Our hearts bleed with sympathy
for the widows and orphans who are left
penniless upon the mercies of the world
and the world cannot help them either,
for they are inaccessible to her. Yet
let us compare the above with the raw
ages of the beverage alcohol.
From careful searches OF the worlds |
greatest libraries, the Hon. Richard P. |
Hobson, of Alabama, has compiled sta
,istics showing that from five hundred
1ears before the Christian era to the
ausso-Japanese war there have been
2, 100000 men killed and wounded in
'attle. This comprises a period of
300 years. How does this compare
With the destruction that liquor makes?
The most careful estimates on the raw
ges of liquor indicate that fully z, 80O,-
100 are destroyed by it each year. War
oes not compete at all with the death !
ealing agency, alcohol. It is at work, j
ecretly and silently, killing and de- !,
auching men, women and children. ]

this remedy was actually put forth by
L. X. Grigsby, in his LIv-VER-LAx.
LIv-VER-LAx is harmless vegetable

On account OF COuSlueraDle amour
of comment concerning the new drus
dists' bill to restrict the sale of whis
key thru the prescription OF a ply
stefan, dentist, or veterinary surgeon
we are publishing a text of the bill Of
the first page OF the paper. There ha
been some criticism of the administra
ton and of the author of the bill here
A few persons believe that it is piec,
of sharp practice in legislation, that i
was introduced and passed under coyel
or guise of regulating the traffic by
druggists. The bill, it is said, had the
Endorsement of the anti-saloon league,
and Mrs. Holman, while here last week,
spoke of it as one of the achievements
of the friends OF Prohibition.
This paper deferred making any COM
ment until the bill was published.
1t occurs to us that there is double
meaning in the bill, or the new law, or
why should the impression be left that
druggists are allowed to deal in intox-
icating liquors. There were no excep-
lions made in the four-mile or State
wide Prohibition laws. These laws pro-
vide that no person whatever shall sell
or manufacture for sale any intoxicat-
ing liquors, and when this bill recites
An act to prohibit the sale, barter,
distribution, or giving away of intox-
icating liquors." it is an endeavor to
make it appear that druggists are not
amenable to the four-mile law, and
thus provide way to nullify the four
mile law to certain extent.
The bill, of course, fixes severe pen
alties and makes extensive red-tape pro-
visions, but the fact remains that it
provides a way that whiskey may be
legally bought in Tennessee, and that
fact alone is the first puncture the four
mile law has ever had.
Everybody understands how such
laws as these in other States have been
abused. This is not by any means the
first law of its kind. There have been
dispensary laws in other States and they
have been miserable farces. The senti-
ment then against the traffic was not as
strong as it is now, but why should there
be any provision made for the sale of
liquors in the face of the
fact that all the laws heretofore have
been directed to the prohibition of the
or sale of these liquors.
Why should there be way provided
to obtain whiskey legally in Tennessee,
when every effort has been made to
make the traffic illegal.
The effect of the bill, it seems to us,
is simply to leave loophole for the
of the four-miIe or State wide
avs. 1t goes right back to the idea of
instead of prohibiting the
raffic. If the bill is intended simply
o make it possible for sick man to
'uy whiskey legally in the State, the
.uthor is doing something that no Pro-
libition plank in any of our State plat
orms calls for; he is doing some
hing that is not advocated by any of
be political parties in the State.
Our attention was called to the bill
hen it was first introduced, but we
1ought no man in Tennessee had the
,merity to interfere with the State wide

EITEL READY TO
 LEAVE DRY DOCK
German Commander Must Say Time He Desires.
 Karlsruhe Believed Sunk.

Newport News, Va., March 12-FOr- mai demand for declaration con- cerning the length of time required for the Prinz Eitel Friedrich to repair was served late today upon Captain Thierichsen by Collector of Customs Hamilton. The German cruisers hull has been scraped and repained. She will leave dry dock tomorrow. A nav al board of survey examined the ship today. Capt. Kiehme of the destroyed ship, William P. Frye, made it clear today that the Eitel did not limp into Newport. News haphazard. He said that for two weeks the big German cruiser laid down a course directly for Norfolk.
 Collector of Customs Hamilton made his report to Washington to- night. The board of survey which ex- amined the German cruiser was nam ed by Commandant Beattie of the Nor folk navy yard. Its findings will be sent to Washington.
 The sailors Of the Prinz Eitel stat ed that the Karlsruhe had changed her SIOuuO AIOIIl LAC WSol AAuAOs to the North Atlantic. Having no word from her in many weeks they fear she has met her doom.
 Send Women Back. Immig"a "ation authorities at Washing ton notified officials here that all e)lgi- ble immigrants aboard the Eitel Fy'ad- rich would be permitted to land. This ruling caused the local officials to send back to the s:in six women who were brought asho"e last night. They were second-clsss passengers on the French steamer Flnride immigration Inspector J. E. Wi(tams "f this port said he was in possession of positive information that these women wei undesirable and coulG not be admit ted under the immigration laws of the United States. Protesting vigorously they were escorted by officers to the dock and taken back to the Eitei Friedrich. Later they probably will be transferred to ship bound fo, New York to be deported from ELS island

Worst Disaster for England Since German Blockade
 Occurs Thursday.
SEABUG CEASES OFF
 WOULD-BE RESCUERE
News of Sinking of New Cruiser. Bay amO, Carried tO England by Mer- ciiantman Master, Who Says He
 Was Pat to Flight.

London. March 12.--The admiralty issued an official statement tonight re- porting the loss of the auxiliary cruiser Bayano while cn patrol duty. Evidence points to her having been torpcdoed by submarine. But 27 of the Bayano's crew of about 211 are known to survive Fourteen officers, including the com mander, are presumed to be dead.
 The auxiliary cruiser was torpedoed and sunk about a. m. Thursday, off Cu.sewall Point, Scotland, in the North channel, connecting the Irish seq with the Atlantic. She sank inn mediately.
 The loss of the Bayano is the heav- jest blew yet struck by the German submarines since the announcement of the blockade of the English coast on Feb IS, the ship being practically new.
 The Bayano was a steel tWin-screW steamer of 594S tons. She was built at Glasgow in 1919, was 416 feet long and equipped with all the latest sub marine signalling apparatus. First news of the disaster was brought to port by Captain McGar- rick of the British steamer Castle Reagh.
 l These saved drifted away from the scene of the sinking of the Bayano on 1 wreckage, and were picked up by oth- CT passing vessels.
 Captain McGarrick stopped his ship and attempted to prosecute a search | for possible survivors, but was pre- vented by the appearance of German submarine which chased the Castle Reagh, who stated his ship, on Thurs day morning. passed through quan- tity of wreckage and bodies strewn thick in the water, some still floating on pieces of the wreckage.

SALE OF NARCOTICS CAUSES MANY ARRESTS

Memphis, Tenn, March 12.--The first trial ever held in Memphis for violation of the Harrison anti-narcotic law was staged before United States Commissioner Poole today. Charles Perry, negro, arrested in the dope" raid last night, was bound over to await the action of the United States grand jury.
 A mulatto woman and three white men found in one of the joints last night will be given their preliminary trial tomorrow.
 That the "anti-dope" crusade now being waged here is only the begin ming is indicated by the appointment at Washington today of George Draper of Nashville and Bruce Breerson of Conway, Ark, as special agents of the revenue department to enforce the anti-narcotic law in Tennessee and Arkansas.
 One prominent druggist is said to be in the tolls, and important arrests are lcooked for soon.

No Anxiety at State Depart. ment Over Sinking of
 American Vessel.
EXPECT GERMANY TO
 MAKE PREPARATION
Because of German Governments At. titude Toward British Acts of Seiz... ure, Cannot Quibble About
 the Frye.

Washington, March 12.-The state department today ceased worrying about the incident of the sinking a1 the American ship, William P. Frye by the German converted cruiser Printz Eitel Freidrich now at New port News.
 The reason was the interesting dis covery that the entire obligation even to providing the case of the United States, rests on the German government.
 The view at the state departmen; is that the German government will disclaim the act of the commander Of the German cruiser and ma .,e it can produce irrefutable proof that the cargo of grain cn the Aerica.l vessel was destined directly for the British government. Failing in this, the German government must dis clain the act of the captain of the cruiser Or sacrifice her argument against Great Britain, which sAe made in justification of her subma- rine blockade.
 Germany assailed Great Britain for halting food stuffs destined for the civil population of Germany and cited Great Britain's starvation policy" as ground for the establishment of the blockade.
 It now develops that Germany was denouncing Great Britain for this practice three weeks after she her. self had captured and sunk the Amer ican ship, carrying grain Supposedly intended for the civil population of Great Britian, and certainly not di- rectly consigned to the British government.
 At the state department it is be- lieved Germany cannot afford to bubble about the Frye and that she will have to give the cargo the bene- fit Of the doubt and suffer the charge Of inconsistency and insecurity.
