HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, October 2.-tSpecial )-Miss Katherine Ridgeway. speaking on behalf of the fourth Liberty Loan campaign, inspired large audience at the Elks theatre last night and besought them to lend their whole hearted support to the government. She urged the elimin- ation of all useless spending of money so that the greater amount will be avail able for this bond issue and several suc- ceeding issues and she urged the people to greater sacrifices for the winning of the war She believes the end is far off yet, and she advised ags>.nst over confidence.
 Sergeant Major Lowry, of a Canadian battalion, veteran of the battle of Ypres and many other bloody engagements, ac- companied Miss Ridgeway and spoke of the life of the soldiers in the trenches. He described the first gas attack of the Germans and told how the Germans were stopped after an advance of three miles by the heroism of the little British army. He drew heroic picture of the soldiers who are fighting for world freedom.
 Frank A. Mauterer of the Margaret Mills has been held under s5000 bail to await the action of the federal grand jury, which will meet next week, on charges of violating sections of the es- pionage act. It is claimed that Mauterer declared that although he was natural ized citizen of the country, his sym pathies were with Germany because he was born there, and that he discouraged registration of men subject to draft and discouraged subscribers to Liberty Bonds
 The overseas casualty lists of yeste, day carried the name of Private Sam Holman of Huntsville, who has been SC verely wounded. Holman was in one ol the early drafts of last fall. He IS a sor of J. E. Holman, formerly of Dallas village, and was an employe of the Dal- las Manufacturing company. His friends here do not know what command Hol man has been fighting with.

BE JUST BUT VIGOROUSLY

Representative Dent was not as en- thusiastic as Senator Underwood respect ing that declaration of the President
 "Of course, we must be just he said. but we must not be just to the extent of forgiving our enemies and figurative- ly taking them to our bosoms. We must be just but vigorously rather than len ently just
 T am for pressing our advantage. Every development in our favor must inspire us to renewed energy and re- newed determination to crush the Ger man army. It will not suffice to crush German autocracy. The idea that the German people were thrust against their wishes into the war has been abandoned. The real German is as intense in his devotion to miltarism as the Kaiser him self.
 Let us be just but let our justice be obvious to. emotions and impulses
 While there has been minor debate re- garding the Presidents speech, it is everywhere admitted that it presents to Germany the terms by the acceptance of which Germany may have peace, and that the President spoke not only for the United States, but for France, Eng land and Italy, as well.

UNDERWOOD's VIEWS

Senator Underwood, one of the closest students of war conditions in Washing ton, is also an optimist, but declined to state his views in detail relative to the Bulgarian plea for peace. He declared conviction, however, that with Bulgaria removed from the war arena, the end would not be far removed.
 '"The one outstanding feature, more significant than any other,' explained
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-10-03

Senator Underwood, was the Presidents declaration that at the peace table we must not be just only to those we would show justice but even to those whom we eration.
 That was declaration of states man. It might not sit well with thost harboring the war spirit. a spirit which demands wholesale slaughter and ami hilation, but it is in accord with ths spirit which will bring about peace on our own terms and that quickly. Fur thermore, it is in accord with the spirit which always prevails at fair peace tables"

POLITICAL MUSHROOMS

There's n prospective candidate for
senator and congressman hiding be-
hind every bush. They are thicker
than printers ink. They are sur.
rounded on all sides by candidates Tor

year. Roberts thinks its easy picking
while MoCarran and Boyd are lining
up their forces for an attack on the
Henderson stronghold during the pri-
maTies. Ed. Caine has prospective
candidate taking a pot shot at him
every time he turns corner Judge
Horsey is mentioned, Leonard u. Fow-
Ter OF Reno Is wetting his finger and
holding ii up to the wind, and now
comes Eddie LunsfCrd, present Dis

a congressional possibility. Former
Governor eddie Is figuring on getting
out the old gray gas cart and going
out for Boylo's scalp; and now comes
Jake Fulmor from Ely with a blare
of trumpets and sign that says he
is after the liberal vote for governor.
Verify the candidates grow up like
mushrooms. They arc thicker than
candidates for the assembly. II is
needless to say who'll be successful
OF course. The fellow who beats
Charlie Henderson for United States
senator will have TO get up before
the neighbours pet rooster. And thus

" ---that Day Is
Germany's DOOM

There is one simple, easy way by which every family
In the United States stand up and be counted-by
which every and child enlist in the hun
dred million, all-American army which the Germans
dread.
One of the most significant utterances made during
the entlre war was made by prominent German official
when America cast her lot with the allies:
eve do not fear the American soldiers because they
cannot arrive IN time; what we fear is the intelligence and
devotion of one hundred million Americans trained to
faith in individual initiative The day that those hundred
millions act as one that day is Germany's DOOM"
Today Germany is fighting with a new and more
desperate energy because she fears that the American SOL
dlerS will arl"Ver in time.
But Germany still refuses to believe that our hundred
million people will "act one"
How can prove it to her? How can we strike to
the heart Of the Hun? How we convince the kaiser
that the day Of his doom approaches?
That way is to lend our money to our country
BY War Saving Stamp costing you until February
i 1918, SLIP, worth So on January l. 1923.
II you cannot pay for it in immediate cash buy u.
s. Thrift Stamp for % cents and keep on buying them
until you have 16. Then add few cents in cash and ex-
change them for the War Saving Stamp.
Begin to do this now. Save every cent YOU can and
put it into these stamps.
The money will be used Immediately to provide guns
ammunition food, clothing and other supplies for orr SOL
ders and sailors.
This will be bad news for the kaser-hc worst he has
ever heardtor 1T will prove to him that are ready to
act as one" 1t will prove that not only our men t
every dollar we have is behind our country II will nrovo
that we are in the to win and that we shall stov in
IL until we dO win 1t will prove that are thOroIGhv
UNANIMOUSLY determined, that country our homes and
our loved ones shall no longer lie under the dark menace
ol German domination and cnsaVcment
