1T Is A PITY.

1t is indeed a pity that there should be any division among
Democratic United States Senators at this time over the Ship pur-
chase bill which has the endorsement of President Wilson, of Secre-
trhy Bryan and of a vast majority of the leading Democrats of the
nation. We would not undertake to impugn the motives of those
Democratic senators who have bolted their party and joined hands
with the Republicans to defeat a measure that has almost a solid
party backing, but certainly it is a pity that they cannot see fit to
subordinate their views to the concentrated judgment of their fellow
Democrats. Political parties are absolutely necessary to the per-
lection of governmental ideals. 1t is a matter of record that in
evrry great movement someone had to make oncessions-leader
ship had to be recognized in somebody. For a man to proclaim his
independence of party actions puts him on dangerous ground and
generally renders him much less effective for serving his people
One thing stands out conspicuouly in the alignments on the Ship
purchase bill: Those Republican senators, who have always antag
onzed the South and whose constituents have fatened on the rob
Der tariff, are putting up the bnterest tight against the measure, and
it does seem strange indeed that they could obtain the ear of any
Democrat. This same bunch of Republicans only a few years ago
were championine a bill that sought to tax every man in the United
States to aid the big steamship companies in building more merchant
vessels and in operating what they already had. Since the Euro
pean war begun and the merchant vessels of other countries have
been f. ced to discontinue carrying merchandise or manufactured
products across the ocean, these steam ship companies have raised
the cost Of carrying goods from one hundred to FIVE hundred pei
cent and of course they do not want Uncle sam to adopt any meas
ures that will protect the shippers and thereby prevent their con
tinued robbery. L is well known that these same steamship com
panies have raised the price for carrying cotton aim ot to the point
that it takes half of the cotton to pay for shipping, and yet there are
senator's who insist that the government should sit still and take nc
steps to protect the people.
We would not undertake to express an opinion as to the detail
of the Ship-purchase bill but its purpose is good, it is a step in the
right direction, and even if there be some very Objectionable feature
in it, we repeat that the senator who joins hands with his old tim,
enemies against HE own party is running a serious risk.

In MemOriam.

On Saturday morning, January 16,
1915, the spirit of little Earl Brewer
Smith took its flight to the realms of
the Celestial City where his mother had
already gone and thus his father, j. H.
Smith, ard his uncle Mr.. H. Newton
and family with whom he was making
his home, are bowed in grief. The lit
tie child was only six years of age but
was so bright, sweet and attractive
that everybody who knew him loved
him. His journey through this world
was but short, yet he left memories
that will be treasured up and that will
tend to make those whose hearts now
bleed see the beauty and the excellence
of the things of God as they never saw
them before. The child's life was
sweet but that God saw fit to trans
plant him early makes us know that he
had finished his work and we who are
left behind know, too, that he is re-
lieved of the burdens and of the sins OF
this world and that he now basks in the
sunshine which is radiant around the
Savior's feet. A Friend.
