pect great things Of the great demo
crat who has just been made the rea
ruler of England, "the little Welsh
lawyer" Altogether Lloyd-George is
the most remarkable man that Eng
land has produced in century. he
is one of the wonders of his age. His
rise from poverty and obscurity to the
highest pinnacle in a country that IS
as conservative and as slow to change
as England is almost miracle. Al
though never a soldier nor militarist,
his career is as remarkable in many
respects as that of any man whom the
world has known since the meteorlc
career of the great Napoleon. he has
risen from the most obscure, Celt,
to be the ruler of the great Anglo
Saxon empire upon which the sun
never SETS" And every one, political
friends and enemies alike, concede
that he is the man Of the hour.
One of the strangest features OF the
situation lies in the fact that the con-
servatives, the old aristocrats, who
have been greatly incensed in the past
at this democrats tax reforms, should
so thoroughly recognize his great abil-
tiles that they are now among the
strongest Of his supporters. Great
things are expected Of him. He has
never known the word failure. AS a
member of Parliament, as the chancel-
lor of the exchequer, as a land and
tax reform leader, as the chief of the
newly organized munitions bureau and
as the war lord of England, he has
been a success. 1t is altogether fit
tnig that in this, the greatest crisis
that England has known since Napo-
leon threatened to dominate the whole
world, it's government should be so
organized and its constitution so fex-
ible that it can call to it's services, as
the supreme head, it's greatest son for
a century. That is one of the chief
glories of the Anglo-Saxon civilization.

THE TRABUE VERDICT.
avs the Chattanooga Times:

DAYS Lu6 Chattanooga 4AnSos
but there was an element in the
case that appears to have outWeighed
the rigid exactions of the written
law in the minds Of the jurymen,
and that was Stokes intemperance OF
speech and his violent temper quail
ties that usually denote the man pos
sessed Of them as being violent and
dangerous. Threats and abusive cpl
sthets, used by some men, would go a
very little way with jury in reducing
. resulting homicide below murder in
the second degree; yet when uttered
by those who are reputed to be pug
nacious or violent, they amount as in
this case, to justification for the taking
of life, especially when there is a
color of proof that the taking OF life
was done in defense against feloni-
Gus assault If this were not the view
to be taken Of the verdict in this case,
the precedent it would set would be
dangerous to the peace of society, CIV
ing as it would, immunity to the man
who should kill another in resentment
for abusive or insulting language.
"The important significance of this
verdict lies in the warning it gives to
men that they may not bully, brow
beat, malign or threaten their neigh
bors with impunity; and, further, that
the law itself stands as barrier to
the punishment of the man who, SEN
sitive to his honor and good name,
shall, under color Of what may seem
to him to be necessity for the protec-
ton of his own life while seeking a
retraction of insulting words or the
redress Of a great wrong done him,
kill his traducer This verdict simply
recognizes the compensation allowed
by enlightened public sentiment when
it substituted the law for the code
of honor" The issue appears to have
been the reputation and character of
the two men, and Trabue's was def
nitely, distinctly and admittedly the
better and he won"
Evidently The Times has correctly
diagnosed the logic which moved the
jurors to acquit Trabue Of the murder
of Stokes. 1t would be difficult to
reconcile the verdict with the exac-
tions of the written law" hence the
'urors must have appealed to that "un-
written law" which unfortunately is
coming to play a much more impor-
tant part in Tennessee murder trials
than the common law and the statutes.
It is a most dangerous tendency, too.
It all illustrates the cheapness of hui
man life. It is seemingly a return to
the old idea of personal vengeance, of
the personal settlement of private
wrongs.
We are inclined to make what in
better days, in old civilizations, would |
be regarded merely as extenuating
circumstances, a justification fer homi |
eide. The verdict in view of those |
usually returned in Tennessee under
similar circumstances, was no sur
Prise. Such verdicts will continue to
be the rule rather than the exception
until public sentiment is aroused to |
the necessity for rigid execution Of
the God-given law Thou Shalt Not
Kill"

c. S. TOO STRONG
FOR CULLEOKA
LOCALS PLAY INDIFFERENT AND
SLOW-CEClL AND THOMAS
STAR FOR HIGH SCHOOL.

The basket ball quintet from Cullso
ka, was beaten by the Central High of
this city Wednesday afternoon at the
High School gymnasium by the score
of % to II. The locals played a very
sluggish game and if their opponents
had been a real strong team their
chances of victory would have been
very slim. Culleoka played a hard
game and their passing was excellent,
but they were not as strong or as ex-
perienced as their opponents. McKib-
bon and Moore were the mainstays OF
the visitors and much credit is due
them; while for the locals, Cecil aad
thomas were the only ones in the
game and the credit for the victory
really belongs to them. AS this was
the initial game of the season on the
home grounds there was large crowd
out. There were more than two hun.
dred spectators and they made the
house ring with cheers. Coach Har-
olson tried out eight men in this game
and stated to Herald reporter today
that the next game would see a
marked improvement in the team.
There is also much doubt as to who
will make the permanent team and
plenty of chance for any anxious can
iidate who will report for practice, to |
win berth on the team.

Why Mining Investments Are More
Attractive Than Gilt Edge Securities
Mining and Engineering World.

Wonder Is often expressed by sue
so-called "gilt-edged" securities at the
readiness of the general public to put
their savings in mining shares, not
withstanding the reputation which ir-
responsible company promoters occa-
sionally and unjustly give to mining.
Certainly there is more than the
mere declaration of enthusiastic brok-
ers that mining shares have, in many
instances. greater value than some
railroad and industrial securities
which inspire the investor in mining
receive higher interest on his money.
What is hidden behind the veil Of
speculation that suggests an equitable
return on the large capitalization Of
some of the gold and copper mining
companies in Nevada, Arizona, Mon
tana, Utah and other sections of the
United States?

Ell Paso, Texas, is a well known
mining and smelling center, particu-
larry for the American owned mines
In northern Mexico. An early Spanish
explorer it is stated, forded the Rio
Grande in 1898 and named the place
north. But not until the period of
the Mexican war seventy years ago
did Ell Paso change from ranch to
a border town. An old Spanish mis-
