LIARS ATTRIBUTE. UNWORTHY MOTIVE
Hud-H Hole Advocates Say Newspa- pers Are Fighting County Judge
 For Personal Reasons.

Some one acting for the county for himself, is studiously spreading | the transformation over Greene county that reason for advocacy of good roads and the intelligent ad- imnistration of county finances up on the part of the editor of The Daily Press and Weekly Soliphone is based upon the low ground of personal dislike for Judge Branch. this dislike, according to stories now being smeared about. having originated when the county judge declined in his official capacity to allow advertising claims filed by The Daily Press and Weekly Soli- phone. r
 For the edifcation of those who Ire apt to gauge principle by the circumference of dollar, and for the further information of sec ond- and third-rate minds capable only of viewing situation from it's neither standpoint let the ex- planation be made that at no time since the present administration has been in office has either The Daily Press or Weekly Soliphone filed single claim for a single dollar. and if the county judge has 1isallowed any accounts, as his en- thusiastic agents of transformation claim is the case. that individual has acted in the dual capacity of both filing and disallowing such ac- counts. The county judge himself that such stories are not true. He oers has yet even permitted him to allow or disallow any claims; and he knows, furthermore, that he is not the agent through which coun- " printing is given to the news papers The Daily Press and Week ly Soliphone are making attempts to find whether the county judge, or some one interested in him for punitive reasons, is responsible for the story. When responsibility is fixed the public will know our opin- ion of those who disseminate such lies, and the liars will be shown up in their true proportions. In fact, we will publish photograph of the contemptible individuals who seek notoriety by becoming the mouthpiece for untruths that are not fit for clean mouths.

ARMY OF WOMEN
 FORMING IN RUSSIA
Success of Female Battalion Arouses Whole Nation-Many Rush
 To Colors.

AS the result of the heroic con duet at the front of Miss Vera Butchkareff's female battalion, the movement for the creation of 8 great woman's army is progressing throughout Russia like wild fire.
 Already Petrograd, Moscow and Kiev have formed regular recruit. ing bureaus and established bar racks under the ordinary system of army administration, subjecV under newly issued order by Minister of War Kerensky to the staffs of the local military districts. The gov ernment has issued arms and com plete equipment to the women and has appointed male commanders. and instructors, and. in view of the spread of the movement. it is plan ming a more suitable uniform for the women fighters In Petrograd a new battalion is being raised by the chairwoman of the New Wo- mems Military League, a university student. Miss Fromenko. The spa cious engineers, palace has been turned into a barracks in which TOO girls and women are already in uni form out of the 1900 so far enroll ed. For the remaining places ill the

more than eight thousand deaths, while only seven thousand men fell in action.
 "In striking contrast are the statistics gathered by governments in recent years. since compulsory vaccination against typhoid has been enforced by the more en- frightened countries. In the entire army of the United States in 1915, only four cases of typhoid devel- oped, and not a death from this malady occurred This record was shown by our government with it's army camps scattered all over it's vast possessions. In the army three injections are given at ten-day in tervals, each subsequent dose be- ing double the preceding one. After three full vaccinations are given, a relatively permanent immunity exists
 ''Only in about one case in every thousand does any reaction, or un pleasant results follow vaccination. Only rarely are soldiers incapaci- tated for duty. Where the blood is pure and the person free from all disease germs, there is comparative ly no danger of flare-up, or serious results from vaccination
 s'The army camp is not the only place where immunity from ty- phoid may be secured by vaccina- tion. The same rule applies in all stations in life, only that under army conditions the disease appears harder to combat, and the liability to flare-up some greater. With chil- dren in good health and surround ed by home comforts and attentions the danger of reaction is small

 Medical Journal.

Dr. W. R. Owens, one of a num- Der Of Paragould physicians who have taken an active part in urg- ing upon the public the importance of being vaccinated to ward off typhoid, gave to The Daily Press this morning a few interesting facts taken from recently-publishe scientific journal The following ex- tracts will be of interest;
 "At the time of the Spanish-Am- erican war moro than one hundred thousand soldiers were encamped in various southern cities Over twenty thousand took typhoid with in eight weeks after going into camp There were 1880 deaths oc- cured in the camps scattered throughout the south. During, the entire war only 243 soldiers were killed in action, making the fatal ities from typhoid more than seven times as great as those who fell on the field.

Caraway, while on his way to his home at Jonesboro to spend few days looking after I .ss inter ests, stopped over ir Rjs city in compliance with a pst4a' request made by Reprosentati Charles Nj. Stedman of the Fifth l$0nth Caro- lima district. eongress nan Stedman is closely related to the Stedmans of Paragould His first opportunity to see any of his Arkansas fela- tions came this spring when Miss Anne Stedman went to Washington as sponsor for the Arkansas division of the Confederate Veterans. Miss Stedman, who is an unusually charming and attractive parsonage, so completely won the admiration of her kinsman that he insisted up on having Mr. Caraway come by Paragould to bring Miss Anne a photograph of himself. The North Carolina member of congress took occasion, while his pretty relative was in Washington. to extend to her every courtesy possible.
 Charles M Stedman was veter- sa in he civil war, having enlisted as a private when the conflict first broke out The company he origin ally joined disbanded whereupon he became affiliated with com pany from Chatham county. He was lieutenant, then captain, and af- terwards major He served with Lees army during the entire war. and was wounded three times, iln- ally surrendering at Appomattox. Immediately after the war he read law. In 1880 he was chosen a dele gate to the national convention. He was elected lieutenant governor in 1884. In 1909 he was appointed by Gov Kitchen as director of the North Carolina Railroad Co.,, and was afterwards elected it's president. He was elected to the SiXty-second. Sixty-third and Sixty-fourth con- gresses.
 Miss Anne Stedman has been urged by her distinguished kinsman to come to Washington and enjoy some of the social advantages that are incident to life at the national capital.
