ALLIES BELIEVE THE
PRESENT YEAR Will
MEAN THEIR SUCCESS

long dark winter nights that 1t Is
impossible to say how many OF these
were in honor of 1917. There Ia cne
section, however. where the British
artillery followed the practices adop~
ted last year OF welcoming January
with salyos against their enemy from
guns Of all calibres.
Along this front everything from
machine gune to the biggest Of the
heaviest joining in first one round
then nine. then one and finally six.
I'VE do not know whether the Ger
mans recognized II or not. but we
will try them again tonight" said an
artillery captain as he started for a
distant part Of the line to give the
necessary instruction.
In sending this fiery greeting to
the Germans there was further
complication of differences OF time.
the Germans observing continental
time. which IL one honr ahead Of the
Prtish and French clocks. To avoid
ail doubt. the British artillery fired
sipnal salvos at both II O'Clock and
midnight
low back clouds seudded over the
battle area the last night of the old
year and It's successor WAS borne in
on a bowling wind which caught IN

GUARDIAN SCORES
REPLY OF ALLIES TO
CENTRALPOWFRS

We venture to think nothing was
added to it's course by the verbal en-
bellishments with which it was en-
larged and weakened. These emo
tional appeals continue throughout
the note until the postscript, which
is strong, clear, logical, convincing
an obviously by different hand,
dealing specially with Belgium.
Nevertheless we see no reason
why if Germany is willing publicly to
state what she is prepared to offer
we should not follow with state
ment of what We demand.
"The next exchange of views will
be between the allies and President
Wilson. This is different and in
many respects a more critical mat
ter. The reply of the central pow
ers was collective but we see no rea-
be- At least. we hope 1t will be
drafted In this country and addressed
as We alone know how, to the mind
and heart of the people of the United
States. If it is to avail in eniighten-
ing American opinion and winning
American sympathy it must be con-
ceived in a different terms that from
the document jjust made public.
"The drafting should be by For
eign Secretary BafYour There Is
none better able than he to put for
ward our noble cause and purpose
In worthy language"

HOPKINS IS FIRST
TO Be MAYOR FOR

At Completion of Present Term
of Two Years The Mayor Has
Broken The Record.
IMPROVEMENTS BEEN MADE
More Factories Have Located
Here and the City Has Been
More Successful Than Ever

Time During the Past.
BEEN MADE

j. Hunter Hopkins has the distinct
ion of being the, only mayor elected
for three successiyesterms and ne
also has the distinction of being the
youngest mayor in the state of Geor=
gia.
Under the present administration
the city has prospered as never be-
fore, Some Of this prosperity came
as result of the increased business
all over the country but most of it
came through a direct result of the
liberal manner In which the ad-
ministration has ated all new in
dustries and it is Safd will continue
to do so to all wh6 desire to locate
factories here. .,
, Mayor Hopkins has been an emin-
ent success as a mayor, especially is
this true. as regards police court.
Whether. the unfortunate who. is
brought before him Is the richest of
the. rich or the poorest of the poor
he gets that same consideration and
it is just-at least that is what Mayor
Hopkins thinks when he fines his
friends for violating the laws of the
city especially the traffic ordinance.
Chairman of Council Cook will
sometime preside over the police
court and just what his figure is to
be for that old charge of drunk and
| disorderly" is not known but those
who are often up on this charge are
doing some 'strong figuring on just
what his favorite figure will be. An
old topper said he know it would not
be less. than Fifteen or sixty Gays

The fact that Glynn county does
not change her Officers very often is
Indicated by the fact that James d.

Is the only new officer in the county.
Mr. Baldwin's race last September

events of the primary, defeated his
opponent by "a majority Of 276.
