What France Paid Germany.

The last war that France fought
with Germany, until to this present
one, was the Franco -Prussian War of
1901. It lasted less than year,
but was far-reaching in its results,
for France went into it under a royal
government, Napoleon III, and emer-
ged from it republic. The Napo-
leonic dynasty ended there.
The end of the war found France
with her eastern territory overrun
with Germans, millions of dollars
destroyed, Paris held by the enemy
and Alsca and Lorraine torn bodi-
ly from her possession. AS a last
thrust Germany levied on her war
indemnity of 81, 100000, and re-
fused to withdraw all her troops un-
til the last franc was paid. For more
than a year these Prussian soldiers
were guarantered in certain French
towns, a species of threatening bill
collectors.
On September 5, 1873, the last in
stallment of that war debt was paid,
and on the 18th of the same month
Germany evacuated the hitherto occu-
pied towns.
The payment Of that debt was one
of the phenomenal financial incidents
of history, for the people who paid
it were the middle and working class
es of the country. With characters
tic thriftiness these people had quiet
ly boarding their savings, and with
equally characteristic patriotism they
bought back the financial freedom OF
their beloved France.
But Alsace and Lorraine remain
even unto this day in the hands of the
Prussian looters.
When one remembers this stupen-
dous debt and how it was paid, the
shadow overhanging France, should
Germany by any possibility win this
war, is perfectly apparent. The
people will not even remotely con-
template the chance of defeat, not
that they would withhold their mon
ey were it a public necessity, but
they could not bear the blow Of their
pride. Germany, although their
neighbor is their inheritated enemy
and they are implacable in their dis
trust of her.
The France of today is a glorified
edition of the France of '75, and she
| will fight to the last man rather than
pay one penny of German subsidy.

FIGURES
Of LAST PRIMARY.
Votes By Districts In 1911 Primary
Together With Total Vote Cast
for Senator.

The primary election for the nom
ination Of United States Senator,
Congressman and Judges, make the
following facts and figures about
the 1911 primary interesting:
In 1911 primary Mr.. Vardaman
carried every congressional district
except the Third and Eighth. In the
Third Vardaman's total vote was
1880, Percy received $500, Alex
ander 1,437 In the Eighth District
Vardaman polled 4,737, Percy 2.741,
Alexander 2,494. Thus it will be seen
that in the Third District Vardaman
lacked 1,016 votes of majority, and
in the Eighth he needed only 495 to
make it eaven. Kinds was the only
county in the Eighth District that
he carried, and that was by the mar
row margin of forty-one votes.
The votes polled in the other dis
tricts in the 1911 contest for the
Senate were as follows:
First District-Alexander. 4,904,
