News filtered through a military
censorship is far from satisfactory,
and the papers, even those which have
the very best news service, can give
but meager details of events connect
ed with the Mexican situation. At
the same time, if this censorship were
not maintained, it is probable that the
unbridled Imagination of irresponsible
and INSCRIPTIONS reporters would
run riot to such an extent that the
country would be unnecessarily work
ed up to fever heat of excitement

A representative of a large con-
Germ which furnishes paper TO print
ing establishments, stated to the
writer that he anticipated more fail
ures and suspensions among news
papers and printing offices within the
next ninety days than for the entire
period covered by the past several
years. Paper and all other material
used in printing have gone to such
ruinously high prices that there has
never been period in the history of
the printing business when it was
so hard to make the amount received
for a piece of printing cover even
the cost of production, much less
afford a profit. On many grades of
paper used for printing the price re-
Gently has advanced 100 per cent,
and the same is true of ink, type,
metal, etc.

VIOLENCE MUST BE CURBED.

The Danville police report for July
showed a total of 272 arrests. OF
this number SIS were for drunkenness
and 80 for assault. Besides these,
there were six arrests for dl5tur-
Dances, three for carrying concealed
weapons, 80 cases of disordc11y con-
duct and two felonious ASSAULT
charges. The largest number of case;
of assault causes the Register to say
that unquestionably there are far too
many such crimes, and it is earnestly
hoped magistrates and juries viii
impose such penalties upon offender"
of this class that security of life and
person may be better safeguarded. II
"a man is wronged or insulted or at
tackled he has an ample legal remedy
to which he should resort. Doubtless
many Of the cases of assault were II
a measure attributable to bad liquor
for few men quarrel and assault
others when in possession Of all thei.
faculties unimpaired.
1t is not to the credit Of city thai
inoffcnsive citizens should be in con-
slant peril of assailants. Let the full
force of legal penalties be applied to
assailants, especially when there is
no justification Of their assaults. This
should include Jail penalties when
ever the facts in the case warran;
severity. Such Il course will do much
to make each place in the state safe
and pleasant place to live. Give the
assailants q wholesome lesson thai
the prevailing public sentiment of the
community will not tolerate such in.
eXcusable invasions of the rights OF
others, and this violent element viii
be curbed or else driven from the city.
The Police Court of Alexandria this
acted upon the suggestions
made by our contemporary. Three
cases of assault were upon the docket.
The first offender negro, was sent
to Jail for three months, as it was
shown he was also guilty of vagrancy.
The second also negro, was fined $40,
and the third, a woman, was fined the
same amount. The man, should he
fail to pay the assessment, will serve
ninety days in Jail subject to the
roads. The woman's services will be
utilized in the work house for the
same period should she fail to meet
The demands upon her.

It : that the
SphnL -. a,z. aso5 OF Egypt
have WI on this globe
during n &C rec thousands
years. They watched the waxing and
waning Of Babylon, Media and Per
STA, the career of Alexander the Great
and the rise and fall of the Roman
Empire, the four great universal
empires of the earth. Napoleon the
First ting his Egyptian campaign
while -t.>:c;ressing his troops, pointed
to these silent witnesses and said:
"Thirty-fivc centuries are looking
down upon you" The Pyramids saw
Napoleon discounted, the destruction
of the French fleet at Aboukir and
the Corsican leaving his soldiers to
ret lack into Europe the best way
they could.
The Pyramids were ancient in the
days of Herodotus. In fact their his
tory was unknown then, centuries
before the beginning Of the Christian
era. This Greek historian, the old
est apart from the Bible writer's, said
the priests of Egypt knew nothing Of
the Great Pyramid of Gizeh in his
day. 1t is properly classed as one Of
the seven wonders of the world.
1t may not be generally known, but
it is fact, nevertheless that the Unit
cd States, young country as 1t IS.
possesses things as old, and possibly
older than the Sphinx or the Pyra-
mids of Mizraim.
The largest and oldest living thing
in all the world is the property OF
Uncle Sam. Its exact age is not
known but it is probably in excess
of $500 years. When Christ was born
it was a lusty youth of 1900 sum-
