Scimitar and its editor were among
the staunchest supporters of Cover

Beard's Edit9rialSS.

In way, articles written by Bear!i
and printed in his paper have from
lime to time caused some comment.
It was well known that he was pro-
German in sympathy before the
limited States entered the war, as 1ss
editorials and verbal statements
Ishowed, Some time after this coun-
try became an ally against Germany
Beard printed in his paper ~ sal-
torial under the caption "The Great
Fizzle," in which were references to
the administration that came to the
attention of the Postofice Department,
resulting in his paper being deprived
of the mail privilege. Later, at the
United States court in Greenville, a
bill of indictment was handed to the
grand jury, which returned true Dill
AGAINST Beard, the accusation being
based on this editorial, among others.
The trial was set for the Greenwood
term Of court, which began last week.
and resulted in Boards conviction.
Beard was represented by Messrs.
Cothran, Dean and Cothran, of Green
Vile, and Sam Adams, Esq, of AbDe-
Vile. District Attorney Tnurmond
and his assistants, Messrs Mays ana
Wyche, looked after the interests OF
the government.

 Every sailor and soldier who serves his country in this war witt earn everything the proposed war in surancc bill provides; to be bcne ficiary of the proposed law will be badge of honor
 "Whcn we draft wage edrner, we not only call him but the entire fam fly to Gle flag; the sacrifice entailed is not diyisible The wife and chil- drcn. the mother, the father, are all involved in the sacrifice they direct lV hea~ the burden of defense. They suffer just as much as the soldier, but in different way, and the nation must generously discharge as proud privilege the duty of maintaining them until the soldiers and sailors return from the war and resume tae re- sponsiblilty.
 "We have drawn the sword to vindi- cate America's violated rights, to re- store peace and justice, and to secure the progress of civilization. We can not permit our soldiers, while they hold the front to be stabbed in the back by uncertainty as 10 what is be- ing done for their loved ones at home. Our tomorrows are in their hands theirs in ours!

DON'T TAnk-PROnUCE COAL.

Nothing should stand ill the way of producing sufficient coal to warm the houses of the nation this winter and to keep the wheel of industry re voiving.
 But in d great many instances d talkfest between official and unoffi- cial boards of mediation, operators and miners takes the places of coal mining.
 The main trouble seems to be that our coal dictatorship and price-fiXing arrangements started too late If this rigid regulation had been begun about last April there probably would have been more coal in the country than at present.
 1t is a curious reflection upon our aunted efficiency when we realize that despite the desperate need for coal, a large proportion of the mines are idle half the time. and some of them all the time.

 GLADDEN'S PHRASE

Columbus, O., Oct. 9.-Dr Washing ton Gladden, known as the nestor of Congregationalsm will be the most conspicuous figure in the annual con- ference of the National Council of Congregational churches, which is to meet tomorrow in this city. pr. Glad den has been prominent through a long career as an ethical teacher, for his combined gifts as speaker and writer, inasmuch as pastoral duties in Brooklyn, N. Y., Springfield, Mass, and Columbus, have not prevented him from writing much for journals of the highest class.
 He was one of the first clergymen in the United States to indicate an un- derstanding of and sympathy with the cause of organized labor. He has been steady and consistent foe of business monoplies and was the origi- nator of the phrase "tainted money" Dr. Gladden. is native of Pennsyl- vania and is now in his eighty year.
