infantry on guard duty at Camp Lo-
gan, Houston, who were placed on
court martial trial here today on
charges Of mutiny, murder and riot
ing in Houston on the night of Au-
gust 23, last, during which twenty
two lives were lost, armed themselves
and left the camp in disobedience to
orders from Maj. B. S. Snow, after he
had warned them of the consequences
and advised them that Corporal Chas.

the Negro soldiers were inc.nsed.

which participated in the shooting up
of Houston. He was the only ma

found hot coffee and lunch awaiting
them. After this they were shown to
their barracks, where cots and blank
cts had been provided, placed there by
northern Negroes who reported early
in the week.
The trip north was marked by new
experiences for the majority Of the
ITO. For many of them it was the
first ride on train. For all drafted
men Ppllmans were a luxury, some
thing they had never dreamed of be-
fore.
At various places in the north, pa
triotic societies rewarded selected men
with lunches and words of good cheer.
The most momentous event, aside
from the ride in Pullmans, however,
was the farewell given by the white
and colored popultion of Birmingham.
A large parade was conducted just be-
fore departure, which followed BAN
quet.
Later.-This morning another di-
vision arrived, consisting Of 1000.

The War Garden.

Representative Mason Of Illinois
said in Chicago the other day:
"One way to keep down prices Is
for every family to set up it's own
vegetable garden, but the trouble is
that most ot US are as ignorant of
gardening as the chap who wrote to
the scotsman:
GAS I wish to do my bit for the
allies by growing my own provisions
on strip of rocky ground back Of my
house, please send me, f. o. b, one
dozen potato seeds, one bee with hive

ALLIED COUNCIL OF WAR

The essential fact being that we
are in the war the why's and where,
to:es Of what we should do ought to
be hushed, except when in accord
aDce with the one sole aim, to win
the war.
Now, if one thing has been proved
by tie past three years it is that the
Genital Powers can not be whipped
unless the countries fighting them
are willing to pool their resources
and use them where they can do the
most harm to the enemy. The list
of victims to the other policy, Bel
GUM, Serbia, Roumania, Russia and
Italy. are evidences enough of its
failure. Let us then adopt the pol
icy of our enemies, leI US join hands
with our allies. and use all of our
combined strength to smash the en-
envy one place at time.
The contention in Washington, as
formerly held in Great Britain and
France, is that regardless of other
fronts, the war will be won or lost
III the west. AS Germany is our
strongest foe, it is logical to attack
her with our full strength, and after
disposing of her the other foes will
fall easily. That is the correct doc
trine, but if it will take longer to
smash our stronger foe than it will
take to smash all of our others and
then combine on the stronger, it is
the wrong plan to pursue.
Witness how Germany has fought
a defensive fight in the west, after
the Marne settled the fact that she
could net crush France, and how
nevertheless she has used her sur.
plus to smash other countries. Il

TMO CA SIS

The editor Of the Roxboro Courier
recently saw a letter from a man
who sent sum of money to friend
asking that it be loaned on real es-
tate security. Don't put the money
in a bank" continued the writer,
for if Germany wins this war the
money will not be good The ed
itor of the Courier points out that
while Germany isn't going to win
the war, even if that event should
come to pass money in bank
ready casn-Would likely be more
valuable than a real estate mort
gage. In other wosds' if money
should become worthless, as this be
n|ghted citizen seemed to think prob
able, in the event Germany wins the
war (Which latter event he seemed
to guard against), what would a
mortgage be worth?
The citizen mentioned evidently
has some near kin in Iredell. A citi-
zen in one of the rural precincts,
sending in his subscription for a
Liberty loan, wrote a Statesville
man that he had tried to sell some
of the bonds in his community but
the people had no confidence in
them" That expression may be
subject to explanation, but it's com
mon and accepted meaning is that
there are citizens in Iredell county
who have no confidence inthe Obli-
cations of the government. We can't
think that is meant; we can't believe
any grown man in the county with
sense enough to 60 about by himself

United States government becomes
worthless, then all other similar
forms of property will be worthless

be some folks are so blinded by DO

Liberty bonds democratic bonds

they think they may be repudiated

that be so, it is waste of words to
