Senator James.

The news that Senator James
has greatly improved, and that
the last slight minor operation
has been successfully completed,
will be welcomed by all Ken
tuckians with a sight of relief.
Senator James has a strong hold
on the people of Kentucky; on
their admiration as we'll as their
affections. Before long it is
hoped he will be in Washington
again to resume his duties as
chief spokesman of the admins
tration on the Senate floor.
Senator James has become dis
tinctly stronger in Kentucky dur
ing the past few years. He has
grown to his increased RESPONSE
bilities. which, after all, is the
test of a man. He is a better
Senator than he was Repre-.
sentative; just as Mr.. Wilson lis
a better President than he was
a Governor, and a more success
full Governor than be was a uni
versity executive.
Senator James should not be
opposed in his race in reelection
to the Senate this fall. He GER
tainly will have no opposition
with the Democratic party. He
is known to all the nation as the
mouthpiece of the President in
the Senate. The President has
more than once shown his regard
for Senator James and the high
value he places upon his services.
More than for any other man
running for election this fall il
can be said that a vote for Sena.
tor James is directly a vote in
support of the President, and Z
vote against him is vote against
the administration. 1t is hoped
that he will be reelected by ar
overwhelming majority. Louis

GhOuls, Nothing Else.

But it is hard, brethren, not to
hate the Huns a wee, tiny bit,
when we remember, with the
Philadelphia Ledger, that there
is nothing these Germans won't
do. They poison not only gas.
but wells and children's sweet
meats. They spike toddling ba-
bies on their bayonets and carry
them in triumph through a con-
quered village. They repeated
ly assault a wife in the presence
of her pinioned husband. They
use girls for the convenience of
a regiment. Such girls, insane
with fright, are now covering
in Paris hospitals. They dishon-
ored women in daylight in the
public squares of Belgium. They
mutilate boys by cutting off their
hands so they can never bear
arms against Imperial Germany.
They screen their advancing
troops with women and children.
They infict filthy and loathsome
cruelties upon the wounded pris.
oners who fall into their hands.
They crucified a Canadian against

General F0ch.

The thought OF the world Is
directed to General Foch, in this
period of the great German Of
fensive. The fate of the allied
armies is in the hands of this
man, the commander-ln-chief of
the British, French and Ameri-
can forces. Faith in him is based
upon knowledge. His work at
Ypres and at the Marne are we'll
known.
With general Foch, as with
every successful leader, brain, a
special insight, is the basis of
his achievements. 1t may be
said of him as of Napoleon, that
he never blunders into victory. )"
He sees the vital point, catches
the nearest way, and fights with
bouyants courage, persistantly
and irresistibly, the battle that
has already been fought out and
won in his brain.
He understands the business
of war theoretically. as his "Prin-
ciples Of War" prove, and prac-
tically, as his successes have
evidenced. His mind is quick
and fertile. With a profound
knowledge of tactics and strate-
gy, he combines the indispensa-
BILE quality of knowing instantly
what to do in an emergency. This
combination of intellect and care
full analysis with the power of
spontaneous intuitive action in a
crisis makes General Foch the
chosen leader of men.
His knowledge, his invincible
faith in himself, his courage and
resourcefulness in the face of
disaster, inspire confidence.
which in itself is an asset for
victory in its effect upon the
morale of the army.
His enthusiasm, his optimism
are peculiarly French, since they
spring from the mind and are
always tempered by an ironic
GOODNESS, calculating prudence.
General Foch possesses the
qualities and the experience that
guarantees success; he has been
a life long student of the art oil
war; he has proved his pre-emi-
nence as a leader in great cam.
paign; he has the mental anG
moral qualities that win.
The world waits il confidence
for the moment when Genera
Foch shall see fit to begin a coun.
ter-attack. His action is swift
and brilliant. but it springs from
profound analytical study Of
conditions.-LouisvilIe Post.

The Precarious Life.

There is the simple life. There
as the strenuous life, and there
is the urecarious life. A side
light is thrown upon the risks of
a crooks life in the following ar
tieEe from Chicago paper:
Chicago detectives started Tor
St. Louis recently to bring back
May Blark, cabaret singer, in
an effort to throw some light on
the mysterious murder of her
husband, Ted Clark, a bank rob-
,er.
Clark was one of the bandits
who held Up the Tri-Bity Bank
at Madison, ILL.,, May 16, and es-
capped with $4,000.
Clark's body has been found
in the Missouri river at Fort
BelIefontain, thirty miles north
of st. Louis. His hands and
feet had been tied and his throat
cut.
The police are workingion two
theori IS. One is that big Gus
Zeidler's infatuation for CLARK s
wife led to the robbers death.
Solder and Clark's wife were ar.
ested together recently in Cleve.
and Ohio.
The other theory is that Clark
was slain by sluggers he hac
hired to get" Zeidler.
At the time of the robbery.
CIark's two companions told him
they got only $4,000 from the
bank and gave him about 81, 800,
as bis share.
When Clark learned the loot
was $4,000, he started on the
trail Of his associates with a Sc
lect party of gunner rounded
sup IN what is known as the cab
bage patch," by the under
world of st. Louis.
Clark led his braves to DE-
Soto, but according to informa
ton received by the Pinkertons
Ziedler and Alexander McKeown
the two men he sought, alread!
had left there.
Whether the men beat him a
Enis own game and threw him il
rEhe. river, or his own gang o
thugs turned on him and killet
him for the So, 800 he carried, thu
police are uncertain.
