T. r. WILL TEST 1T.

Col Theodore Roosevelt announces
that, if'the proposed amendment to the
espionage laws is adopted, he will
promptly give the governments chance
to test its constitutionality. He will not
be alone in this; and there is little
doubt what the courts will hold. In
fact, there has already been litigation
which fairly establishes the point at
issue. The suffragists who were ar
rested and sent to jail because they
stood at the White House gates and dis
played banners bearing excerpts from
the Constitution and from speeches by
well-known men, appealed their case
and were adjudged innocent. Here
superserviceable underlings at the CAPT.
tai were responsible for the arrests;
and there will be many more of them
all over the country who will seek to
curry favor with their superiors If the
new law is enacted. We shall be at
the mercy of any petty officer who
chooses to think that any criticism of
the administration is calculated" to
aid the enemy or to retard the sale
OF Liberty Bonds.

TIT IS A LONG LANE THAT
 NEVER TURNS"

In these days of rapid changes in events no one can foretell what a day may bring forth. At this writing (the first of the week. the Germans seem to have gained the advantage in the great battle raging on the Western front, in Northern France; but this territorial ad- vantage has caused them a fear ful loss in men. As the Ger. mans came forward, in masses, and pushed the British line back, they were literally moved down with rifle and machine. gun fire, by the brave Britons
 The estimate is made that Ger many has lost about 4 to 1, as compared to the English during this great drive; and if this state
 ment is true, and there seems nc doubt of 1t, the British are more than compensated for the ground they have lost. Territorial az grandizement is ephemeral while the loss of man power is lasting The ground taken by the Ger mans today may be retaken by the English soldiers to morrow
 but the man slain in battle is nc

PSYCHOLOGICAL.
Mrs. Virginia C. WhittingtOn.

On last Friday afternoon, at her home in this city, Mrs. Vir- ginia o. Wilmington, relict of the late Col. T. NJ. Wilmington, who departed this life in 1900, died after an illness covering a period of about , years.
 While the deceased had been in feeble health for this long period, caused from a fall, her death was unexpected at the time and came as shock to her numerous friends.
 Mrs. Wilmington, who, before her marriage, was Miss Virginia Cordell, was in her 10th year at the time of her death, and is survived by one son, Mir. 0. C. Wilmington, owner of the Ad vance, and one daughter, Mrs. J. l. Barrow.
 The funeral services were con- ducted at the family residence by Dr. M. B. Corrigan at 10 :30 O'clock on Friday morning, after which the remains were inferred at the Rough and Ready Ceme- tery.
 The deceased was an exem- plary christian woman and was friend to all who knew her and will be sadly missed by her numerous and devoted acquain- tances.
 To the bereft son and daugh- ter we offer our heartfelt con- dolence in this hour of sorrow.

Mrs. ". K. Hammock

The many friends of Mrs. W. k. Hammock in this city were surprised and shocked on last Sunday to hear of her death, which occurred at a hospital in Monroe, La., her home, on Satur- day night.
 Mrs. Hammock had undergone an operation about ten days ago and was supposed to be entirely out of danger, when she was taken suddenly worse and died almost instantly.
 The remains were brought to this city on Sunday and inferred in Oakland Cemetery on Monday morning, after services at the residence of Mir. V. B. Posey, at 10 80 o'clock, conducted by Rev. F. shepperson.
 The deceased is survived by her husband, two daughters, Miss Beth Hammock and Mrs. V. B. Posey, of this city, and one little son, Abe, about 4 years of age; one brother, MT. Lafayette Gab- bert, of San Angelo, Tex. ;; five sisters, Mrs. 0. T. Edwards, of this city, Misses Tate and Mag gie Gabbert, of San Angelo, Tex, Mrs. Hattie Campbell, of Augusta, Ark, and Mrs. Ury Mckenzie, of Texarkana, Ark. We offer our heartfelt condol- ence to the bereaved relatives in this hour of greatest sorrow.

more and the one to take his place in the serried ranks will ere long be unavailable. So it is obvious that while the victory, thus far. has apparently been
 with Germany, it has, in reality, been in the Briton's favor. And even, now, the tide may have turned and the lost ground, or much of it, been restored to the English army. But whether now or hereafter, this will be the final result, for no army was ev- CT so great that 1t could continue to sacrifice men by the hundreds and thousands, and still hold out. The day of exhaustion is sure to come, and when it does, its end will be quick.

To the Democratic Voters Of Drew County:
 In making my announc ement for the Democratic nomination for State Senator, 1 am assured by men, in both Drew and De- sha Counties. who have been ac- tive in the affairs of our party, that there exists an absolute a. ereement between our counties that is to last so long as Dr CIV and Desha compose the District that Drew should furnish the candidates for State Senator twice to Desha Oounty's once.
 Drew has furnished the candi- dates for Senator for the past eight years, and alone has voted on them.
 The Democrats of Desha coun- ty have kept this agreement, every since we have been linked together in the district, and will continue to to keep it. 1 would call your attention to resolu- tion recently adopted by the Democratic Central Committee of Desha. Under this agreement Desha is now entitled to furnish the Senator.
 When 1 am elected 1 shall be the Senator of Drew and her people, as 1 shall be the Senator of Desha. No law will be passed that will take from Drew a single foot of her territory, and her boundaries shall be main tained as they now exist.
 1 shall be in favor of any law that will be the means of aiding the boys that are fighting tha you and 1 may be safe, and will vote for the ratification of tht amendment to the Federal Con. stitution, providing for Nation wide prohibition, and will sup port bill that will make Ark ansas so bone dry-that tn err will be no chance of misunder standing its terms. If there i any fact, connected with my life of which I am glad-it is that have never tasted or drank g drop of alcoholic liquor. At al
The Monticellonian., 1918-04-19

times shall be glad to frankly tell the people how l stand on any issue.
 Owing to the fact that our country has far more important things than politics to deal with, at this time, 1 may not be able to meet all the voters, and as sure you that I shall appreciate anything done in my behalf, and shall never so conduct my self that single voter will re- gret having cast vote for me.
 Respectfully,
 P. l.. NEVILLE.

whole chorus Of eulogy today was from
certain Of the radical Socialist groups
who, while approving in tho whole
the general allied principles, never
theless attacked the French govern
ment for refusing 10 grant passports
