PROSPEROUS SOUTH

Among the other bumper food
crops raised this year, the Agricul-
tural Department gives information,
is yield Of 84,727,oOO bushels of
sweet potatoes, about 80 per cent, OF
which were produced in the South.
The South has also shared largely
in the new high record Irish potato
crop, which reaches approximately
440, 900, 900 bushels.
The South raised more corn this
year than ever before in its history.
The Southern farmer has little to
complain of now. Cotton is selling
over 90 cents, higher than at any
period since the years Immediately
following the civil war and more
than five times as high as it was in
1914 when the Macedonian cry went
up for everybody to ''buy bale"
Capitalists are beginning to take
note of the increased value of South
ern lands and to prefer Southern
farm mortgages to railroad stocks
for investment.
With conditions like these the
South should prosper despite what
ever hardships the war may entail.
It's agricultural productivity is vari-
ed and immense. Besides cotton,
grain, rice tobacco, sugar, molasses,
vegetables and fruits Of all
kind are produced in the South. Cat
tie; hogs, sheep and poultry, are grown
in this section, and so are mules and
horses.
For everything the farm produces

A GREAT LEADE R

President Wilson has demonstrated himself not only the foremost leader of men in his day but one of the greatest leaders in all history.
 Aside from piloting the Nation safely through the most appalling war crisis ever known for nearly three long years, he found time and opportunity 10 crystalline the best progressive thought of many years past into legislative performance. He has accomplished more humani- tarian and economic reforms than any other President we ever had.
 How much more he might have ac- cOmprshed had he been permitted to strive in a time of world peace we may only surmise by what he has done while civilization seemed to be reeling, totterlng, falling.
 Whatever may come to pass dur ing the next three years. Woodrow Wilson's place In history, as one of the worlds wisest statesmen and noblest champions of human rights, Is secure.

difficult to find a name to place above that of Mme Breshllovsl<y, "Grandmo- ther of the Russian revolution" The daughter of a nobleman, she com- menced her remarkable career by a peasant in order that she might go among the peasant class and learn how they hved. It was because of her peasants schools and her efforts to help them to acquire ownership of a little piece of land that so many we'll born, finely educated people were sent to the tortures and hor- TOTS of frozen Siberia.
 What this grand woman suffered, as told by herself, following her re turn from her own long period of ex-
 le after the downfall of the Cars government is almost incredible.
 She didn't die because there was always something that she must do for others less hopeful and with less fortityde 1than herself.
 At the age of twenty six. this wo- man of the nobility left home and husband to join one of the propa- grandist groups which were travelling through Russia to secretly educate the peasants and incite them to revolt against the cruel despotism which bound and shacklcd them to the earth.
 For long years she was skilfull enough to evade the Czar's secret agents and detectives but they got her at last and the world knew her no more until thirty long years had passed. Years which changed her from the figure of plant youth; glossed the raven crown of her hair with whitening fingers; bent the straight back with the rounded curve of decrepitude, and reduced her in everything put mlnd ana spirit. All ter thirty years of exile in which she suffered prosecutions of every vari- ation of cruelty, prosecutions which her captors hoped would kill her, the new Russia, the liberated Russia, the Russia which will yet emerge trium- phant from the tolls of dissension and civil strife, has her back again Tn her home land where we may ulti- mately hear of her playing even greater roles in the regeneration of her country, for, though she has passed her seventy second birthday, she is not an aged woman and may live to perform great service for hu- man freedom.

THE TIME FOR SILENCE

United States Attorney General Gregory politely advised the public to obey the law and keep their mouths shut" Silence has become golden. As in France we may soon se1 pla- cards which will read. Keep your ears open and your mouth shut; there are eavesdroppers everywhere. /" On the British front in France is a signboard put up by some philosop- her, and this is what 1t says:
 A wise old owl lived in an oak;
 The more he saw the less he spoke;
 The less he spoke the more he heard
 Soldiers should initiate that old bird The Monitor.

AMERICAS SPURS ALREADY
 WON

Not an American ship was hit, not life lost of all the thousands sent out from the United States through the submarine infested zone. The tain loss of one vessel: and the de- structIon may we'll have been much more disastrous.
 It was in an unfortunate hour that Hindenberg was put mp, a few days ago, to attempt to revive with talk the spirits of his countrymen. He did not hesitate to impress upon them that all depended. for Germany, upon the submarine war. Our bOats," he said, "are doing good work. They are acting more successful than we thought" But they cannot prevent armies being flung across the Atlantic quite unharmed; and their piratical depredations among our own shipping again shows a decline.
 We rejoice to know that In this most vital department of the war the hand of the United States has thus soon been laid heavIlyEsupon the enemy. America's spurs are already won in this war; and we can re-echo with the more fervor the noble phrase of the French premier, who declared recently that the Fourth of July had become the day of celebration of the liberty of the world.

TO OBSERVE LABOR DAY
 IN HONOR OF DRAFTED MEN

Little Rock Aug 30-Arkansas' full quota under the selective draft is 1O,- l 267. Sixty six of the seventy-five counties have already reported 4,742 whites and 2,416 negroes drafted. Gov. Brough issued a proclamation desig- hating Monday, Sep. 3rd as Patriotic Day as well as Labor Day. He calls upon all citizens to observe the day in honor of the drafted men, who must begin reporting for duty on Sept. 9th. It is asked that all business houses be closed, and that all the citizenship of the respective communities be pres ent to wish the boys safety, victory and honor, and pay just tribute to the great services rendered the American public by labor, which, together with capital, has built a noble edifce of economic fact, reared by human toll and held firmly in place by the aver age prosperity of all who have had part in it's building.
 Gov. Brough arraings the common enemy as a great military autocraey which has shamelessly violated treat ies, ruthlessly devastated Belgiufa, Po- land and Armenia, massaered women
 
 and children, conducted a nefarious submarine policy which is worse than the devil carrying dirk, jeaopardized the freedom of the high seas, and men, aced the cause of Liberty and Democ- racy everywhere" ]"
