BONE DRY" MAY
BECOME RIDER TO
POSTOFFICE BILL

The Sheppard bilk TO make the Dis
trict OF Columbia bone dry" will
probably be offered as an amend
ment to the postoffice bill when that
measure is taken up by the Senate.
While a point Of order might be
held against the resolution. the offer
ing OF the amendment would lead to
sharp and probably lengthy contro
versy Should a point OF order be
raised, it would be possible to over
ride It on appeal from the chair by
a majority vote or to suspend the
rules.
The Senate Postoffice Committee
still has the Sheppard bill bottled up
1And the opponents of the measure
are trying to keep It there as long
as possible.
II Senator Sheppard cannot get the
bone dry" provision adopted as an
amendment 10 the postoffice bill and
the Postoffices Committee does not act
on his bill in a short time, he VIII
endeavor to get the District Commit
tee to act.
He has two bone dry bills and
District Committee.
Not long ago a subcommittee OF
the Postoffices Committee reported
out the Sheppard bill under the mis-
apprehension that il had authority TO
act for the entire Postoffices Com
mittee. Later, the report was with
drawn, and the bill went back to
the Postoffices Committee.

PIRATES CAPTURE
TUG, IEENGINEER;;
THEN LOOT PIERS

NEW YORK. April 24.-Port au-
thoritties having barred small craft
such as junk boats, from operations in
an effort to prevent extensive steal
ing, a band OF bold haTbOr pirates
seized a big tugboat. with steam up
at night. ovsrpowered the only man on
board and until daylight pillaged piers
at distant points.
All the crew OF the tug Meta ex-
cepting Michael O'Donneil, the en-
gineer, had gone ashore after the tug
tied up at Essex street, Jersey City,
and he was seated in his cabin read
ing at 10 o'clock. when six men, with
caps down OveE their eyes, boarded the
craft.
O'Donneu was overpowered, and.
after being bound, was locked in a
small bunk room. The captors knew
all about running a tug, and soon
O'Donnell knew that the Meta was
leaving the pier and moving out into
the stream.
For more than six hours the Meta
moved about. making four stops be-
fore being returned to her pier at Jer-
Bey City.
"DOnnell said that while he could
not see what was being done, he
heard enough to convince him that
the tug was run in alongside OF sew
eral piers, large quantities OF goods
thrown aboard and that then the
Meta was taken to some place where
the goods were unloaded.
After the tug had been tied Up safe
~ at the pier from which she had been
stolen the harbor pirates went ashore,
leaving the engineer still bound in the
bunk room. Capt. Daniel McCarren,
of 81 South street, Manhattan, later
found his engineer a prisoner.

WORDS OF A SOLDIER.

"You will know, after having van
pushed your adversary by force of
arms, how to impress him further by
the dignity of your attitude, and the
world will not know which to admire
most, your conduct in success or your
heroism in fighting"
None but a soldier could have writ
ten those words. They embody the
confidence of strength that belongs
to victor who is big enough to be
magnanimous. They were written by
one who has been through the more
than four years of bloody war, but
came out of it without being crazed
by the lust for blood and revenge.
They are the words of Gen. Petain
addressed to his soldiers who are
occupying the territory evacuated by
the enemy.
On this side of the Atlantic where
the roar of battle was not heard and
none of the outrages of the savage
Huns were experienced by civilians,
there will be many to demand venge.
ance, the vengeance that shows no
mercy and spares no. life. This de-
mand will come from those who have
not worn a uniform under the bap.
tism of fire. But the real soldiers,
the heroes of the French, Belgian
and British armies, the men who
have suffered most will be as great
in success as they were heroic in bat
tie. 1t is gratifying to the cause of
civilization that the barbarism of
the Germans has not made barbarians
of the allied armies
France has suffered in her ravag-
ed fields and in her ruined villages"
said Gen. Petain to his soldiers.
"The freed provinces have had to
submit to intolerable vexations and to
odious outrages, but you are not to an
swer these crimes by the commission
of violence which, under the spur of
your resentment may seem to you
legitimate"
II France, who has suffered most,
can be SO noble in victory, surely it is
not asking too much when President
Wilson leads the way for America
to take the lead in establishing new
era of brotherly love the world over.
viva la France!"

FOX HUNTERS WELCOME,

For the third time Columbia has
welcomed as her guests the members
of the National Fox Hunters associa-
ton and 1t is hoped, in the manner
Of the old saying, "the third time will
be the charm" that it will cause
these business men and farmers who
once a year become sportsmen to
adopt this city as their permanent
meeting place and famous Brown
Bottom, where foxes are as thick as
rabbits, as their official hunting
grounds.
Legend has 1t that this Central
Basin of Tennessee, yclept the
"Dimple of the Universe" by the be-
loved John Trotwood Moore, was, in
the days before the white man came
with his civilization to drive out the
aboriginal man and beast, tribal hunt
ing grounds for those Indian master
hunters and that 1t was here on the
banks of the classic Duck that they
held their annual pow-wows that lift
ed them as near to the happy hunt
ing ground" of their dreams as they
ever expected to be in life. This
basin, it is said, was to them a para
disc and was never despoiled by war
fare. 1t was here that warning tribes
met to smoke the pipe of peace and
settle old scores so that they could
go back to the plains and the noun
tians ready to begin new worlds
series of tomahawking.
There being a certain analogy bet
tween hunters of all ages and climes,
it is not improper to suggest that the
fox hunters of America should follow
the wise example Of forerunners and
make Columbia the site of their per-
manent meeting place with the sur
rounding territory as their paradise
of hunting grounds.
Columbia welcomes these gentle
men of the South and North and East
and West for just what they are, a
group of big hearted, liberal souled,
care free boys, some with touches of
gray in their locks but boys none the
less, imbued with the graces and
foibles of humanity, but gentlemen
all and guests whom it is distinction
and pleasure to entertain. What
ever is here that they want is theirs
for the asking.

| upon anyone or approaching the laeai
of what the people of Maury county
would wish as the expression OF their
tribute to the heroes of this war.
Marble shafts and bronze statues
are beautiful in their way, and in
days Of the past have served nobly as
memorials. But they have no virtue
other than that OF being permanent
and beautiful. Too often they have
been neglected and have become mere
loafing places for the idle. A memoir
ial building would be more beautiful,
more permanent and more service
able. If, in addition to the original
cost, the fund to be raised is made
large enough to provide small en-
dowment for its upkeep, it would be
always as beautiful as when new.
The numerous calls for contri-
buttons to war causes during the past
year have been met literally by the
people OF Maury county, but there
is 10 indication that anyone has
given so much that he has suffered.
There is still an abundance Of money
in Marry county and the possibilities
for the production of an abundance
more. Now the war is ended and
there will be but few if any more
such calls. Maury county citizens
have caught the spirit of giving and
il would be well to begin the move
ment now before they revert to the
old custom of clinging to dollars as if
they were treasures that could be car
ried into eternity. 1t would be as
easy to raise $4,000 or 100000 for
this memorial now as it has been to
raise any of the other numerous funds
that Maury countians have so gener-
ously given to help win the war.
An organization should be formed
similar to those which so successfully
conducted the War Savings. Liberty
Loan. Red Cross, United War Work
and other campaigns. This memoir
ial should be the work of the entire
county and its erection should be
participated in as generally as have

BUSINESS AFTER WAR.

Trade and industry reviewers are be.
ginning now to forecast business con.
ditions during the after war or re-
construction days and it is reassuring
to the public and the smaller trades
men and manufacturers to note most
optimistic spirit in the forecasts of all
Of them. While it is admitted that
there will be an unsettled period
during which manufacturers and
dealers will be readjusting them
selves to peace basis, that period
is calculated to be of brief duration.
Those who study trade conditions
tell us that 1t will be surprisingly
short time before American COM
merce and industry will be proceed
ing with business as usual before the
war and that the country has before
it long period of prosperity.
Conditions are such that undoubt-
eddy foOdstuffs will continue for
many months on high price level.
This means that the farmer will
prosper, because all food products
come originally from the farm. The
South is in an especially favorable
position to prosper after the war be-
cause it is an agricultural section
This section will be less affected
by the REIMBURSEMENT than any other,
because it will not be disturbed by
the labor problem as will the indus
trial centers and those places that
have been unnaturally expanded in
population by the creation of war
industries. But the labor question
is the most complicated problem be-
fore the nation as whole and upon
its solution will depend largely the
future of this country.
The unprecedentedly high wage
scale that has prevailed for a year
or more cannot continue. With the
return of our demobilized armies the
former soldiers must be given en-
ployment. That will relieve the
demand for labor and consequently
lower the wage scale. Then will
come protests and possibly strikes

spring thought to all who truly ap
preciate the services of these men
and would express that appreciation
in a. way that would be more lasting
than the fabric of mental preserVa'
ton, which at the best is of fading
substance.
Maury county is rich. Her soil is
productive to degree that has never
been realized. Her mineral wealth
is enormous. The earning power ana
per capita wealth ranks along with
the best in the state. There is no
dearth of means by which this mem
orial may be erected. The only ques-
ton in the consideration of it is to
determine what form it shall take
and what it shall cost.
It would be. unworthy of the men
who have given their lives and of the
men who were ready to give their
lives il it be erected with economy in
expense as the basic consideration.
1t should be expressive of the tribute
of a rich county to men whose SER
vices could. never be adequately
valued in monetary terms. but, there
fore, should be costly tribute in or
der to approach as nearly as possible
to the symbol of that value.
This memorial might take the form
of either monumental shaft set UP
at a prominent place in the city, or
of a public building possessing every
beauty of architecture but at the
same time offering itself for service
to future generations as a library,
assembly hail. community center of
public activities and a museum of his
torical documents and relics.
To The Herald it appears that the
latter form would be far more worthy
of the men whom it would commemor-
ate and more expressive of the love
of the people whom it would repre-
sent. Such a building could not be
erected for paltry sum. 1t would
cost not less than $25.OOe and could
cost as much as $4,000 OF 100000
without in the least being a heavy tax

WILSON'S DECISION.

President Wilson's announcement
that he will attend the opening ses
sions of the peace conference will
meet with the approval of the Ameri
can public, Notwithstanding certain
feeling of trepidation that may be ex
perienced by many that he will be
subjected to the dangers of the sea
at a time when his death would be an
irreparable loss not only to the I'm
tied States but also to the world.
The American people feel that the
risk, if there be any, will be worth the
result, for peace conference with
out the presence of Woodrow Wilson
could not be all that it should be.
President Wilson's leadership has
brought the allied nations closer to-
gether and has made the creation of
League of Nations possibility. He
has brought before the governments
Of the world an ideal higher than
any of them had hoped for at the
beginning of the war. He has made
It possible for war that was start
ed by a military despot without any
good cause to result in the most benign
event in history. He has turned the
worlds bloodiest and most useless
war into the most glorious victory of
all ages.
The absence of President Wilson
from the United States for the brief
period of six weeks or two months
may cause some delay in the enact
ment of domestic legislation, but this
nation may we'll spare him for that
time and at that cost for the greater
purpose of establishing a perpetual
truce among all nations of the world

WILSON'S EYES OPEN.

With all of his magninimity OF SOU
and sympathy for suffering humanity
President woodrow Wilson has his
eyes open and he is not going to be
led into diplomatic trap by the de-
!, feated but wiley German schemers
He received the first note from Dr.
W., s. Solf, German foreign secretary
appealing for. food for the Germans
and with the authority of the Yer
sailles conference assured the doctor
that the allies as far as possible
would relieve any fod shortage that
might exist among the defeated peo-
pies, but only upon a guarantee that
the food supplies would be distribut-
4 ed to the hungry and not boarded for
the classes that perhaps had never
been in want. Then other notes
from DR.. Solf addressed to President
Wilson began to pour into Washing
ton, each making a little broader ap-
peal. President Wilson saw the drift
. OF the correspondence and detected a
fine scheme to put him in the atti-
tude of Germany's councillor at the
peace table. This he did not propose
to be, so he sharply called halt to
: the proceedings and properly inform
ed DIR. Solf that this nation is still
, under arms and at war with Ger
many, only an armistice existing, and
] that all appeals in the future should
be addressed to the allies as whole
I to be considered by the inter-allied
war council for determination.
: II was obvious to the President
that, the Germans were attempting
the old trick of dividing the opinions
sof their enemies at the peace table
In order to secure better bargain or,
perhaps. completely disrupt the VIC
tors and escape without adequate
penalty.
America has nothing to ask at the
peace table, except that justice be
done all nations. America wants no
indemnities and will seek no territor-
ial expansion. But justice must be
done every nation that has repre-
sentative at the great conference that
will determine the future existence
OF the nations Of the world. This
Justice must apply to Germany as
well as to the small and great na-
