Our Democratic supervisors are disappointing
some Of the critics who predicted before the cleo
ton that Petrie and Mcclellan would buck the
frontagetax Last night they voted to call for bids
on an important misrepresentation of Bere'
tania street. They voted with the majority of the
board, making it unanimous, So far, the only diff
ferenees they have had with the majority of the
board have been over the 'freezeout" administered
to the minority in the reorganization of standing
committees and they entirely justified in their
protest upon this point. They have been active in
suggesting ways Of reducing the city's "overhead'
expense, and it is hardly likely anyone will blame
them for this,

KILLING COST IS GREAT
Three Or -Four Tons Of Projectiles
Fired To Kill A Soldier.

Three or four tons of projectiles
and explosives are req uired to kill a
single soldier in the present war
according to DR., Woods Hutchison
Of the American Academy of Medi-
cine, The present cost of taking a
life Is greater than that Of any eth
er war.
Dr. Hutchison declares that the
annual death rate among the SOL
diers engaged in battle is not great
er than five per cent Of the men
engaged. OF the Allied soldiers
who survive wounds six hours, 80
per cert recover. OF those who
reach field hospitals 95 per cent re-
cover, and the recoveries among
the wounded who arrive at base
hospitals Is SO per cent,
The percentage Of criprlipes Is
very small, Gays DR., Hutchison, and
there are fewer amputatie'ns than

JASPER HUTCHINSON FOR SHERIFF
Former County Official Again Aspires
TO Serve The Public.

The ice in the Records announce
ment columns was broken this
year by Jasper Hutchinson, who
seeks the office of sheriff and COL
lector in the next democratic pri-
maries.
Mr.. Hutchison is a resident of
Morgan township, where he has
lived for many years on his farm.
There Is probably not a man in the
entire county who has a personal
acquaintance with more residents
of Sharp county than Jasper Hut
Gibson, who has spent his entire
life among the people of this i'm
mediate section. Like all other
men who have had an active part
in public affairs, Mr.. Hutchison no
doubt has made some enemies, yet
he enjoys the confidence and es-
TEEN of vast majority of his leg
ion of acquaintances, many of
whom will be glad OF his re-entry
into politics.
MIR. Hutchison served the people
of this county as sheriff and col.
lector for two terms soma years
ago, and his record in that office is
a good one. Should he be given,
the office again he would, there
take into the place with hin ne3
knowledge Of its duties that iafoll
ways of value to the office-hopeas
1t goes without saying that
Hutchinson would make a splerporl
official if the voters give him lasI
office. 1t needs only to be adtiveS
that his ability as campaigne
we'll recognized throughout left
county, and no candidate will lnty
forth a more energetic eff yo\e ;
make a successful race thahW !

J. R. METCALE A CANDIDidei:
Well Known Citizen Of Evening Shade
Would Be County Treasurer.

The Records announcement COL
umn reflects the fact that j. R.
Metcalt of Piney Fork township is
candidate for county treasurer,
subject to the democratic primaries
to be held next year.
There is probably not a better
known citizen IN the county than
Mr. Metcalf, He came to Evening
Shade when quite small boy and
has resided here continuously since.
He is not only well known to the
people Of the county, but he is very
favorably known among them. his
life having beer spent in an honor.
able and exemplary way.
He is a lifelong democrat and
has contributed much of both his
time and means to the success of
the democratic party He is thor.
ouehly qualified as a business man
and 1t will be the belief Of every
citizen who Is acquainted with him
that If he is nominated and elected
treasurer he will attend to the du
ties of that important office in c
careful and dilieent manner ant
will be public official who will re-
fleet credit upon those whom he Is
serving,
We commend the candidacy Of
Mr.. Metcalf to the voters and fec
sure they will give 1t their careful
consideration,

THE WAR

50 There is nothing encouraging in
the war news of late. The terrible
punishment that has lately beer
Inflicted upon the Italian army by
the Germans and the revolt and
Evolution in Russian are features
Of the great struggle of great con.
cern to the United Satates and
those countries with which she is
allied. \
The fact that these are serious
reverses cannot be concealed, and
these are the things which, while
they do not swerve the allied arm.
les from their one great purpose,
serve to inspire the German armies
with renewed confidence and ener-
ey That such reverses as these
4 will materially prolong the war
there can be no question.
Il is certainly not believed any,
where among the allies that Ger
many can ever win the war, but
this country has become convinced
that it has entered a struggle that
may be prolonged for years. This
eovernment is making preparations
and calculations for nothing short
Of q three years struggle, and from
three to five million Americans are
to be called upon to fight
It has come to be generally
recognized fact that America must
win the war when it is won, and no
loyal American believes for a mo-
ment that this country will not be
equal to that task. But much
time Is required to round the forces
Of the United States into fighting
shape, and each day Of delay on
that account postpones the end of
l1the war.
Very much Of the peace talk has
been hushed in this country, for
NJ the sufficient reason that all think.
Inc people can understand what
peace without victory would mean
to this government.
