A Plea From France.

We have already recorded the
Presidents decision not to &C
cept the Roosevelt volunteer
divisions. 1t is no time perhaps
to indulge in regrets, but it is
certainly interesting to record a
plea which comes to us from
France for the utilization of the
material which we have thrown
away. 1t appears in All open
letter by Georges Clemenceau
in Il Homme" to President
Wilson. 1t has been translated
and printed in the New York
Times" In part it reads:
Allow me to say, in all candor,
that at the present moment
there is in France one name
which sums up the beauty
of American Intervention. 1t
is the name Roosevelt, your pre-
decessor, even your rival, but
with whom there can now be
no other rivalry than heartening
success.

AM NOT NOW.

In last weeks issue of the Ad-
vocate the picture of W. II.
Mcdonald appeared on the front
page which was suggestive that
he would be candidate for the
Republican nomination for the
Office of Clerk Of the County
Court.
He was a candidate ~for that
place for sometime, and, but for
the fact that he was misled, or
matters was misrepresented to
him he would yet have been q
candidate. His friends from all
over the county, both Republic
cans and Democrats are urging
him to re-enter the race and run
it out; they know or believe
that he can win; they realize
the fact that he is qualified to
fill the place; that he would i'm
prove the office in many ways
and would be a painstaking Off
cial: one who would see to it
that no man came into the place
that was not promptly waited
on; and that their work would be
done in a thorough business like
manner.
Mcdonald, is not sure that he
will enter the race, he is, how
ever, in the hands Of his friends,
ready to serve them now as he
has been in the past. Should it
appear to him that he is the
real choice of the majority of
the voters Of the county, he will
then considermore seriously the
matter of becoming candidate.
He is not yet sure as to his course
in this matter, he does not want
to get into a bitter fight for the
place; as stated above he is in
the hands of his friends, and
will be governed accordingly.
There is time yet to see the
voters of the county. Melon
aid can call 80 per cent. of the
voters Of the County by their
name, and at least that many
know him. He is no stranger,
he has been i'll every election for
the past % years fighting the
battles of his party, his people
know him, and he knows them.
If they believe that he should
stay out of the fight, he is out,
if they say come on in he is in,
and in to the finish.
