Williams Without Opposition

Senator John Sharp Williams will
have no opposition for reelection this
year. His unanimous reelection will
be a fitting compliment to him and one
he has deserved by his hard work and
splendid leadership in the senate. The
Sentinel does not always agree with
Senator Williams but fully recognizes
his ability and is glad to support him
for reelection Ripley Sentinel
The friends and supporters Of Sen
ator Williams are g~atjfed to read this
statement from Editor A. r.. Anderson,
who Is and has been for years one Of
the leaders Of the Bilb0 aod Nardamar
political faction in Mississippi. IL is
indeed the proper compliment TO pay
Mr.. Williams 10y ~rc-electing him to the
United States Scrate without opposl-
ton Greenwood Commonwealth.
Five years ago. after his open OPP
position to the bo-Vardaman ticket.
there was but one question with the
faction as to Senator Williams, and
that was as to who they would run
against him. There was no dispute Of
his superior ability, or the distinction
he had achieved in congress. That
was as well recognized then as now
This would, with the fading out o.
fractional fires have, in all probability,
secured his reelection TO the Senate
over any opponent. But there is an
especial meaning, it is assumed, in
such a call for his unanimous r%c-elec-
ton. This is due in large part to the
position Mr.. Williams has taken as the
leading supporter in the Senate of the
President. And this signifies the pOpu-
Iarity Of the Presid nt-the strong APP
prevail Of his actions and policies by
Inc people Of the state. Nor would it
be assuming too much to claim that his
able and constant champion yves some

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Norfolk, Va, Feb. Given up for
lost days ago, the British passenger
liner Appam, plying in the west Atri'
can trade, sailed like an appartion
into Hampton Roads, flying the Ger
man naval ensign and with her ship :
company under guard of a German
prize crew. She brought word of a
mysterious German commerce raider,
the Moewc, which now roams the
seas, and had on board the crews OF
seven British merchantmen and ad
miralty transports captured by the
Moewe before she seized the Appam
and started her across the Atlantic
for an American port with Lieut. Hans
Bergc of the German naval reserve
and twenty-five men in charge.
The Appam now lies off Old Point
Comfort, under the guns of Fortress
Monroe, waiting for the State Depart
ment at Washington to determine her
status--whethcr she is a man of wal
subject to intermcnt, or a German
prize.
According to the story told with
great reserve by Lieut.. Berge to Col
lector Hamilton, when he formally re
ported his presence in American ter
ritoral waters. the Moewe captured
the Appam, bound from Dakar
French West Africa, for Liverpool
after brief show of resistance, Jan
1G, sixty miles north of the Madeira
islands.
On board the Moewc then were the
crews of five vessels, previously cap
tured, all of whom were transferred
to the Appam.
