ON THE LEVEL
By c. w.

If there is any one thing we've tried
faithfully to keep out of this column
it is the war. But since at least two
editorials today have been devoted to
discussions connected with figures LII
the titanic struggle, we decided to
come over here for little siesta on
the situation. The Fatherland is a
weekly newspaper published in New
York, and lin it's language: Fair
Play for Germany and Austria-Hun-
gary" Not word about giving Tur-
key and Bulgaria square deal.)
This sheet in New York has had
things to say about the American
government and its officials which
should render it persona non grata.
They're trying Tom Watson over in
Augusta this week-and we don't OBJ
ject one little bit. But while public
nuisances are being tried. it seems that
The Fatherland should come in for
something.
Here is a paragraph from their lat
est issues clipped from a general story
titled: Behind the Scenes at the
Capital:
Those who profess to have
more intimate view of the Presf-
dents character don't share this
optimistic view of the editor of the
Fatherland with regard to his pa
cific intentions, and / will here
print an incident which is common
talk in close circles. but has never
been made public in the press. Ac-
cording to this statement, at the
last cabinet meeting before the
final dispersal of the members for
their respective homes to enter
the campaign, the European war
situation was passed in general re-
view. The consensus of cabinet
opinion was that not only civiliza-,
ton generally, but the United
States in particular was interested
in seeing Germany crushed. This
sentiment was not only approved
by the president, but was made
more emphatic by him in a merci-
! less verdict of condemnation ex-
pressed in a few bitter words
which closed the session.
That has never appeared in the gen.
eral press-and who doesn't doubt
it. Rooseyelt's juice must be assisting
the lie factory

SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL
MAY BE TRIED FOR ARSON

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov 28-A sixteen
year old girl may be tried for arson
which is capital crime, at the next
session of the superior court in Allan
ia.
Cleola Holbrooks. colored, has been
bound over from the police court, on
the evidence of neighbors, who saw
her set fire to her parents dwelling
the small house being almost burned
down.
The neighbors testified that they
saw the girl pour the contents of q
can, presumably oil, on trash pile un.
derneath the house. and set fire to it
She denies the charge.

us all in the coldness of her draper
les, we are just plain men. Before
Francis-Joseph's body can be place
in the vault to contain his remains
the answer must come: "A sinful man,
our brother, Francis Joseph" These
are more than mere words-royalty
bows to the will of the Almighty when
crownheads are on parity with their
lowest subjects. The interesting rela-
ton of this incident in the dispatches
is:
The funeral procession will be
halted at the entrance to the vault
by a challenge from within:
Who is there?' The reply will
be made, His most serene maies-
ty. the Emperor Francis Joseph"
The challenger will then reply: Il
know him not" Responding to
second challenge, the announce
ment will be made: The emperor
of Austria and Apostolic King of
Hungary is outside" Again the
challenger will answer. Il know
him not" When. for the third
time. the voice within asks who
demands admission, the master of
ceremonies will reply: "A sinful
man. our brother, Francis Joseph"
The portals will then open and the
procession enter.
