Committee on Liberty
 Loan Thanks Papers

The Liberty Loan committee has has adopted the following resolution:
 ''The Liberty Loan committed de- sires to go on record to the effect that no other factor has contributed in greater measure to the success of the Liberty Loan in the Second, Federal Reserve District than the intelligent and consistent cooperation of the newspapers of this district. Their splendid assistance was an indispensi- ble contribution to the work of the committed"
 Commenting on this statement, Guy Emerson. secretary of the Liberty Loan Publicity committee, said:-
 Prom the outset the press of this district has acted in the most unselfish spirit. EverN form of publicity at the command of the newspapers and press associations has been employed The loan has been prominently fea- tured in news columns, in editorials cartoons. display lines, boxes, etc. Il has been on the financial pages sport ing pages and women's pages and special columns. In addition to this the New York papers have lent sev- eral of their best men without charge to the committee to assist in the col lection and issuing of the great va riety of daily news on all features ot the loan"

 In startling contrast to that pas
 sage are McClellan's reflections on
 Christmas day:
 I've started at sunrise, and it was
 a sunrise well worthy of the day. A
 cloud obscured the sun at first, but it
 seemed a cloud of the brightest pur-
 est gold, and the whole east was ting
 ed with a hue which would defy the art of man to initiate. In an instant I thought of my whole life. of the happy Christmas days of my child hood of my mother, of the very few others I love-how happy Mary and Arthur must have been at that mo-
 ment with their Christmas presents When I was child-as they are now II little thought that I should ever spend a Christmas day upon the march in Mexico. The time may come hereafter when I shall spend Christmas in a way little anticipated by me on this Christmas day.

breaks off after the battle of Cerro Gordo, where McClellans engineer company did difficult and efficient work in preparing the positions for the artillery.
 There are two more amusing en- tries in the diary. They show a thor oughly human discomfort with where ever he happened to be. Here they are:

 Both Mcclellan and George Gordon Meade, the victor of Gettysburg. whose letters are. quoted. joined in hearty contempt for the volunteers who were called in the Mexican war. 'I have seen more suffering since I came out here than I could have l imagined to exist declares McClel- Han. 'It is really awful. I allude to the Asufferings of the volunteers. They
 literally die like dogs. Were it all known in the states, there would be
 no more hue and cry against the

from the almost inexhaustible
coal fields OF Southern Illinois
and West Kentucky. There
are both river and rail connec-
tions with the iron and coal
fields of Pennsylvania, Nir-

transported by river from
Pittsburg for IS cents per ton.
The Ohio and Tennessee
rivers are navigable for barg-
ing fuel at all seasons of the
year.
Fuel is obtainable at the
same price all the year around.
There is no famine-no con-

Steam power can be devel-
