Camp Pike Notes

White county. sprang into prom thence at Camp Pike a week ago by sending eight loads of musi- clans down to give a musical program at one of the "Y" build ings 1t is 15 miles from Searcy to Camp Pike and some of the drivers were busy business men who had to be at their desks next morning but they came just the same and gave the soldiers ot that aera an evening of music. The program was furnished by the Searcy Symphony Orchestra and the Beethovan Club.
 A request is made that mail be not sent to Camp Pike in the care of the '. NJ, c. A. It near. ly always means a delay of sev- eral days in trying to locate the soldier and very frequently it is impossible to deliver the letters or packages. Do not send mail to soldiers unless you know their company and regimental ad- dress. Tie "Y" is glad to rem der the soldiers every possible service but in this particular in stance it is not a kindness to at tempt to handle mail except through the regular channel pro yided by the army and the Gov ernment.
 Camp Pike is a busy place all the time but this summer is just a little more than busy. Thou sands of men are leaving all the time. making room for the men in the new draft that will come the last of the month. It is un- derstood that we will get some thousands from Iowa and other northern states. Last week 25O stude officers came to us from Camp Beauregard to complete their course. So well filled is the camp and so pressing the de. mand for more accommodations that many tents are being erect. ed just outside the regular camp limits.
 So many letters come to the writer and to the Amy |. NJ. C.. A. with regard to service in the
 l work that we wish to again remind the public that men can not be considered who are of draft age or who are over 50. It makes no difference that the per son has been exempted by his local board unless it was for some physical defect that is very apparent but that does not affect the general health. Remember ing these points will save much unnecessary correspondence.
 One of the soldiers had taken as his motto. Do right and fear no man. But his pal has evol- yed what he considers a better one: Do not write and fear no woman.
 A business man from Pine Bluff visited Camp Pike the oth- CT day for the first time and he made the complete rounds. He saw the many ''Y" buildings crowded with men writing let ters, reading or sending home parcel post bundles: he attended the evening programs at several buildings; he visited the Hostess House and the Red Cross Rest Room. and inspected the new Red Cross building for conyaIes. cents: visited the library and the Base Hospital. As he shook hands with the guide who had accompanied him over the camp he said. Every citizen of the country ought to visit some army camp and see where our money is going.

This Year of Extremes

The thermometer is not the only thing
that has shown new high and low rec
ords in the year 1918 From ID degrees
below zero to 1O2 degrees above is tidy
jump. But Allied spirits have shown
just about as great change
The Picardy drive in March was as
low as Allied fortunes have ever sunk
since those black days just before the
First Battle Of the Marne. And TO-DAY.
with the Second Battle of the Marne
fought and won, we chalk up new high
mark in achievement and hopes. The
happiest days of the war, surely-for
the Allies.
The American army in France has
also hung up pretty record Accord
ing to Mr. Lloyd Georges speech, we
had only one division in the line when
the German attack broke on March 21--
and three or four behind That was not
quite zero in troops, but it was low
enough, goodness knows. And to-day we
have over million and quarter.
year of extremes, 1918, has been so
tar record breaker, from January for
ward. What will the rest of the wear
hold? What other extreme is there left
to achieve? Well there was another low
record last winter, as every coal bin
knows. Now if Mr.. Garfield should be
promoted to be Ice Administrator in
Alaska and there should result new
high mark in the intelligence of fuel
handling!
But we refuse to prophesy 1t is

simply extremely dull from now to the

Pennies

1T is easy to be heroic in large matters
only trlf1es can torment the spirit. OF
all the Ills that imitation and depreciat-
ed currency have brought upon us. we
are often tempted to say that the nui-
sance OF having to find an extra penny or
two pennies for all the Things that used
10 cost nickel, or the botheration of re-
celVlng three or four pennies out of
dlme is the most trying We NAV re-
slgnedly if not cheerfully pay 50 for a
pair of boots that three years ago cost
S5; $50 to $40 for suit of clothes that
eighteen months ago cost $40; 60 cents
pound for porterhouse steak, and SO
on through all the list.
But there is something in the higcle
haggle of the six-cent imposition that
strs the inner depths And vet there
seems no escape from it's very wide exten-
sion. 1t is all very we'll to talk about the
watered stock of our street railways and
other corporations; but if they are not
even earning current expenses and are
headed straight for bankruptcy, it is not
question of surplus stocks or bonds. If
IS question as to whether we shall have
cars in which to ride. The plain fact is
that operating expenses, like food and
clothing and all the rest, have risen from
oo to 100 per cent in two or three wears.
Ihls means that even if there was
handsome profit in nickel fare before
there is IN many instances nothing left
now at ALL
There seems hardly any escape from
the nuisance of the pennies unless we dis
card our nickels and dimes and 90 back
TO ~ orE shillings" and half -shillings. or
agree on straight rate of dime for
everything that formerly cost a nickel.
Inns we might call the standardization
OF imitation. The only alternative we can
see is to fix not merely the price but the
quantity of everything that every human
beng consumes, the number of cigarett
each one shall smoke, the number of
times per week he or she may 90 t., a

this method OF dealing with the population
may be considered democratic, then NAV
be permitted to ask what may be the
essence and the characteristic features of
genuine reaction?
Ihe Bolsheviki, or by whatever name
hey themselves wish to be known, claim,
that the present state of Russia is a
dictatorship of the proletariat, although
the most ruthless oppression is applied
against the democratic and Socialist parties
IN Russia and the toilng masses. War has
been organized against the helpless popu
iaton, and every Russian citizen who re-
fuses to recognize this method of govern

tonary. This is the position of affairs in
Russia.

What Bolshevisn, Means

The Russian workngmen, together with
other classes Of Russians, strongly protest
now against the tyranny that again reigns
in Russia. Probably most of you have re-
Gently seen the resolution that the Mos

reinstatement of democratic institutions
and termination of the tyranny which, as

against.

Gus European political men consider that

Russian Soldiers Deceiued

The great Russian revolution instillcd
new courage into the tired spirit, but could
not Immediately revive the maceratcd
bodies, and it is thousand pities that
the warning voices coming from Russia
were not at that time needed by the West
Allies. The treacherous calls of peace
by Germany were not unmasked, and the
mass of the Russian soldiers, melted by
genuine fanatics and by German agents,
were deceived by false appeals, only to feel
on their own backs all the bitterness of
the German peace.
The Ukrainian peasant understood how
the Germans secure the independence of
small nationalties when German bayonets
and chemical vapors were employed to rob
him of his last crust of bread and to re-
instate all the atrocities of the old regime.
The Russian peasant, when he returned to
his village that was cut off from the fertile
provinces Of Russia, understood what an
nexation and contribution mean. The Rus
sian workmen. too, realized their position
when in their thousands they were thrown
out of work. They understood Their the
meaning Of the dictatorship, not of the pro-
letariat, but over the proletariat, who have
lost all the political rights which the revo-
luton gave them, and again live under the
police terrorism of the old regime

the Republican leaders Francis Hen
bricks, the Republican leader of Onon-
daga County, said that Mr.. Schoeneck
was 100 per cent loyal American and
that the Republicans Of Syracuse would
not listen to a suggestion of displacing
him on the Whitman "slate" He was
not displaced. 1t is due to Mr.. Schoeneck
to say that he has made good record in
all the Liberty Loan. Red Cross, Y. M.
c. A. and other drives. He is charged
only with having befriended Tolishus,
knowing that Tolishus was guilty of
sedltlOus utteranceS
There was nothing to show that the
feeling against Mr.. Schoeneck for be-
friending Tolishus would crystalline into
trouble for him until Monday, when
former Senator Heacock filed nominating
petitions placing himself in the race as a
candidate against Mr.. Schoeneck for the
Republican nomination for Lieutenant
Governor
Here, then, is an instance where a
very considerable number of Republican
enrolled voters, dissatisfied with the op-
GRAFTON of organization regularity"
have, under the provisions of primary
law designed to enable electors freedom
of choice, placed in the field candidate
whose name, record and character sym
bolize their protest against Mr.. Schoe-
neck and what he did when he tried to
shield his law clerk from the conse-
quences of his sedtious utterances. Be
fore the primary campaign is over doubt
less the enrolled Republican voters will
become familiar with the details and
coloring of the case. In a perfectly or
derly and American way it goes to an
intelligent jury.

The Easier Way

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: l would like to ask the readers of
your valued paper whether they do not
think there is something better that the
state can do with a lad like Paul Chapman
than to electrocute him and cast him, meta
phoricaly speaking, like a dead cat into
ash barrel?
We are studying the conservation of
many things these tragic days and preach
ing against waste. Why waste such a
young life that had, perhaps only tempo
rarly, gone astray?
Is it because it is easier TO electrocute a
boy whose moral sense is dull than It is
to spend time and labor judiciously to
teach him how to come back and make
good?
| am member of the Woman's Munich
pal League and chairman of committee

him loose would be distinctly immoral and
unfair to him. but to kill him would be
disgrace and degradation for every citizen
