We fight for the liberty to do and
think as we feel, while allowing 9TH
ers the same right-without fear of
any kaiser or sultan bringing war and
sorrow to US ever again.
This struggle is between support

one based on individual liberty ana
popular rights, the other on the CON

America fights because she and her
allies believe in liberal government
which Germany would crush.

as we do.
We fight to win for all men our

BRISTOL. VA, October 13.-lt is
learned here that tho SI5.ooo.oo0 plant
Of the Federal Dycs;uH and Chemical
Corporation. which has just gone into
the hands OF receivers. resulting from
:, quarrel among the stockholders, has
an important contract with the Italian
government for furnishing high ex-
plosive similar TO that used by Ger
many when the forts Of Liege and
Antwerp were reduced.
This explosive. originally known as
"trinitrotolulol," is now commonly
designated as "T. n. H." II has been
adapted, it is said, by the allies in
their strenuous oncnsvcs against the
Germans, and IL has worked havoc
The plant Of the Federal Dyestuff and
Chemical Company at kinGsport is said
TO have n contract To furnish the Ital-
ian government with 100000 pounds
Of this explosive. The kingSport plant.
which Is located in this county, has a
daily capacity for producing this ex-
plosive OF 10000 pounds. and was turn
ing the material out at that rate when
receivers were named and a confusing
litigation was launched.
Efforts have since been made to
patch up, the differences among the
stockholders and bondholdcrs to the
end that the work may proceed, as il
is said no purer grade Of the explosive
is made anywhere than that turned out
by this plant. This heine the case. it
is expected that the United States gov
eminent will command the full capacity
Of the plant as soon as it's contract
with the Italians is completed.

finished product, but it is said that
bond has since been made in order to
continue operations. New York capital
principally is interested in the bis
plant, and the buildings cover about
scvcnty-fivc acres Of those owned by
the corporation at kingSport. The
plant now gives employment to 500
men.

NO PEACE WITH AN
 ARROGANT GERMANY

London, Sept. 2S.-Viscount Milner, minister without portfolio in the Brit ish war council, speaking today at the American Luncheon club, declar- ed against any peace with the un- repentant German rulers.
 Touching on the entry of the United States into the war and the moral significance of it, Lord Milner evoked a tremendous outburst from those at the luncheon when he said:
 "I feel that your country and mine are now united by something far stronger than any written pact or alliance, namely, by an absolute unity of motive and aim."
 Viscount Miners speech obviously was an answer to the peace talk which has been Altering from Ger many in past weeks. He declared that it was the intention of the en- tente allies to pursue "unfaltering- ly and resolutely to the end" their crusade, so that the world shall be a better place to live in than be- fore
