It is not too early to do your Christmas shopping.
 Cordova stores are we'll stocked with Christmas goods. The selections are better than they will be a week later.
 Clerks have plenty of time now to wait upon you and show you goods in stock. In a few days the rush will make it i'm possible for you to consume much time inspecting stocks.
 Early Christmas shoppers get the care of their buying off their minds early; they see to it that clerks are not overly rushed; they get the pick of the stocks.
 There is logic behind the re. quest that you shop early.

PATRIOTISM GROWING.

American newspapers have long gloried in their indepen- dence. If there was a head that they believed should be hit, they have never hesitated to take up bludgeon and pro- ceed to the task.
 The independence and free dom of the press is a national institution. And it is real.
 But in going over many newspapers, of all political ad- herences, in the past few weeks, we have failed to notice where a single publication has printed a cartoon making fun of the President UT published a diatribe of the character oft en seen in newspapers attack ing public men. What criticism there has been is moderately expressed in all cases.
 In the Civil War, President Lincoln was not so kindly treated by the press of the North.
 The rekindling of the fires of patriotism in America has lifted the press and the people out of politics.
 Wilson, the commoner, was chosen by the people as leader in demooracy's war. And not loyal hand is lifted to oppose him, and not loyal paper tra- duces him.
 The new patriotism is so all embracing that it has come to include an unprecedented loy- atty to the man in the Presi- dent $ chair.

dictator among her allies. The central powers wage war con trolled by one supreme com mand.
 Among the allies there will not be a dominating nation. But there must be a central direction of effort.
 The sooner this concerted action begin, the sooner will the war end. By next spring the allies should be directing their fighting energies along lines laid out on board princi- pies of mutual help with pre- pared strategical checks to all possible German operations.
 That will make impossible German thrusts like that into Italy. It will put around Ger many a constantly tightening band of steel with no weak spots.

UNFORTUNATES.

A mighty host of good peo- pie in the nation are having to suffer much inconvenience be- cause they have failed to be- come citizens of the land they love. They are paying for their neglect.
 Certain Austrian subjects are suffering most in this re- gard, since they have been de- clared alien enemies / Austria is a conglomeration of states, and certain elements of the empire have never had love for the Austrian govern ment. Many have come to America to find asylum; and unfortunately many of these latter have failed to cast off tne HuSRs or an alleg1ance that they do not feel.
 It is hard to think that Hun garians, Poles, Croatians and Czechs, who look upon Austria as the despotic ravager of their native lands, are made alien enemies as necessary war measure.
 It shows that when people find refuge in America they should at the earliest oppor- trmity become American citi- ZenS.

UNIVERSAL SERVICE.

Congressman Julius Kahn has said that he will introduce a bill in congress for universal military service for two req sons-to provide a potential army in this country that will make certain that no nation will ever try conclusions with us, and to give the young men of the land needed physical training.
 Whatever arguments may arise over the bill, military training unquestionably makes better men physically. The sol diers at Camp Lewis are al- ready showing that.
 A hundred thousand men went to the Mexican border, most of them from the national guard. They were soft and far from physical perfection.
 When they were called back from the border these men weighed a million pounds more than when they went.
 On army rations, living hard camp life, this force gained ten pounds to the man. Every man did not gain-some lost much excess weight. But the aver age gain was ten pounds.
 When the boys came home from the border, they did not need so much leather for their belts, but they did need their shirts larger in the chest. They had better color And on the border they were safer from disease than if they had re- mained in their own homes, so efficient is the health service in the modern army.

and would give every man a chance to
show good reasons for exemption but
those who didn't show good reasons
would have to go, they said.

SLAv Will FIGHT

LONDON, Aug. S.-The correspond
ent of the Times at the headquarters
OF the Seventh Russian army talked
with General korniloff on the eve of
his departure to take over the supreme
command General Korniloff said:
The first stage Of the war is over.
The second phase begins today"
The correspondent says the Russian
commander repudiates the possibility
OF the Russians surrendering. He holds
that If Russia concludes a dishonor-
able peace to which traitors have been
driving her she will become a German
colony for ever. The Germans would
seize her foodstuffs, enroll her men
and treat her as a conquered country.
There could be no choice between the
evil of war and the evil of surrender.
The new government must realize
the necessity of inviting the allies to
help in the reorganization of the rail-
way service for warfare. II Germany
decided, as all signs indicate, to trans
fer the main pressure to the Russian
front, it would be hopeless to rely on
methods that availed against the in
ferior Austrian troops.
Russia Is full of splendid fighting
men. Ten millions have already been
enrolled but they are scarcely trained.
They are too busy attending meetings
instead Of drill. These millions must
be helped by the British, and French
officers as the Serbians, Rumanians,
Greeks and Americans have ben.
