ASQUITH PRAISES WILSON
"Repiy Is Exactly What Is Required.
 Says Former Premier.

London, Oct. 16.-EX-Prenier AS Guith, in speech today referred to President Wilson's latest note in re-
 ply to the peace proposals of Ger
 many, saying:
 ''The reply which President Wilson
 has given to Germany is exactly what
 was required. It is terse, dignifieG
 and outspoken and goes to the root of the matter. It leaves no loophole to escape.
 We cannot imperil the ascendancy we have gained on sea and land or give breathing time to an enemy who could not be trusted to observe eith-
 CT the rules of honor or humanity Mr Asquith said the main object i've oe the allies was to destroy Prus-
 sian militarism. There is no one in the civilized world who does not feel
 that the doom of war is sealed" he
 added.
 MT. Asquith declared that the over
 lures of the enemy came from people who know in their heart of hearts
 that they would have to give up the game. The reply must come from the German people themselves. He said there was no one better qualified than President Wilson to be the
 spokesman for the common cause.

STATE CROP CONDITIONS
Cotton Picking Progressing Rapidly
 Rice Threshing Under Way.

Little Rock, Oct 17-The weather during the week was ideal for all crops except cotton. It was too wet fer the staple in few localities, according to the weekly crop report, which was is- sued by the Little Rock Weather Bu- , reau yesterday.
 The cotton crop is about picked in southern counties of Arkansas and the greater part Of it is picked in the central part, with the work going on rapidly in the north. Picking is much nearer completed than usual at this season of the year. The ton croD looks quite encouraging in some north counties, but whether much of it. will mature depends on the date of the first killing frost.
 Corn is being gathered under favor able conditions. Nearly all late corn mas matured. Wheat is being sown and the ground is being prepared in nearly all sections. A considerable portion of the wheat is up and in ex- cellent condition in northern Arkan- 1 sas. Reports indicate a decided in- crease in acreage over last year. The rice harvest is nearly completed Threshing rice is also progressing rapidly. Pastures, forage crops, pes nuts and truck are excellent Pota- toes, sweet potatoes and sorghum are l in good condition.

THE DANCING CONTROVERSY.

The Courant is in receipt Of a
somewhat lengthy communication
from Roth, which has to do with the
discussion which has been carried on
to a considerable length in the press
and pulpit Of this county on the pro-
priety of dancing. The Courant will
not reproduce this communication for
two reasons. First, it is Of an anony-
NOUS nature, and communications Of
this class are never printed in The
Courant. Second, The Courant is of
the opinion that already too much
space has been given in this paper to
the subject Of which the article in
question treats; in fact discussions of
this character contain no item of
news interest to those who read the
papers for the news which they may
contain. Added to this is the fact
that both sides to the controversy
have been treated literally in these
columns, and therefore no more space
in the Courant will ~be~accorded in
which to print anything further in
regard to the matter.

JOHN GREEN BRADY

In the passing of cN-Govemor Brady, Alaska loses one of her picturesque figures who has helped make history in the Terri tory for the past forty years. Forty years ago. when Alaska was hardly known to the civilized world, Mr. Brady came to the Dis trict as a missionary among the natives. He worked among them for years and then embarked in business in which he made a success He was appointed governor, and was governor when the eyes of the whole world were turned towards Alaska, during the Kloudikc rush. He left the Territory to make new home elsewhere, but finally returned to his old home to pass his last days near the scenes of his early struggles and tnmphs
 It must have been interesting for Mir. Brady to look back along the years. to the first wear of his arrival here, and to compare conditions then with now At that time there were but a handful white people here. Gold had not been discovered in this section of Alaska and the Territory had not begun pouring out its rich treasures to the nation.
 During Mr. Brady's forty years resi- dcucc in the Territory all the development that has occurred in the Territory has hap pcncd and during much of the time he had a hand in it. He was a pioneer in the true sense. He could do anything that he was called upon to do, from running store teaching the natives, to being the executive of a vast territory.
 Among the names of the great pioneers of Alaska the name of John Green Brady must be put first and it is a name that will always be honorcd in the Territory of which Inc was SD long a part.

THEY CRY FOR TT

An the nations of Europe are viemg with ouc another u doing honor to Prcsi- dent Wilson as the representative of the American people. Cities and countries ask him to visit them and all hail him as great. The President in his Paris speech let 1t be known that when they houorcd him they only houorcd him as the representative of a people.
 Thus is thc great idea of democracy spreading over the world Mo"c and more do the people of Europe realize that dem ocrucy. with the people ruling. k the only true government and the only government that is a safe one.
 The government of autocracy has been tried and found wanting in Germany and in Russia and the government of anarchy has failed in Russia, and more and more it i> being realized that the safe, sane, middle course of democracy is the sure cure for government ills.
 So they honor President Wilson, and through him honor the government of the United States for the stand it has taken as the champion of freedom throughout the world
