HIGHLAND IS COVER THE TOP

Owing to the large number of
subscribers to the Fourth Liberty
Loan, the roll of honor for the last
week Of the drive carnot be given
until next weeks Recorder.
Subscriptions to the Loan at the
three banks in Highland are as fol-
lows:
First National Bank, $4,000

Highland is up on her full allott-
| ment Of the Fourth Liberty Loan
with something to spare. Some
may think it is small, but those who
worked so faithfully in this cause
well know that the achievement, is
great. The influenza, Germany's
peace "squear and the success of
our boys at the front all did harm to
the drive, yet, the loan is over sub
scribed.
All who joined in this work merit
the highest praise, and as in thee
Third Drive we cannot fail to give
the ladies especial credit for their
good work. But for their untiring
effort the loan would have fallen
short.
The Crabbottom Valley Bank was
the first to go over the top, and
much to the credit Of their thrifty
depositors they made subscriptions
OF a size that counted.
Those who responded to this call
are Americans, and are laying up for
themselves a great wealth of salts
faction. They will be able to meet
the boys coming back with clear
eyes, and are forging the shackles
for the autocracy Of the Kaiser that
shall be bound forever. To every
one who has given shall be given
back in due measure beyond any 9th
er form Of investment. The Liber-
ty Loan Investment pays in money,
in creditand in character.
A telegram from Mr.. Z. L. Bemiss,
State Chairman Of the Central Lib
arty Loan Committee of Richmond,
congratulates Highland on its tri-
umph in The Fourth Liberty Loan
and adds that Victory at the. front
viii soon follow the success Of the
loan throughout the entire nation.

WANTED AN ATTORNEY

There is an opening at present in Seattle
for "colored attorney" that will take the
place of the late Andrew r. Black By
square dealing Mr.. Black built up clienteel
that no one but himself knew the full extent
of and an attorney Of like temperament, hon
esty and sobriety would Immediately fall
heir to the most of his clients. Numbers of
"white attorneys' have repeatedly said to
us, 81 never heard of Black taking an ad-
vantage of another attorney or Client"
and it was that principal that gave him his
great success. AS say these attorneys, so
say his clients and for another colored at
torney to fall heir to his practice he or
she must likewise gain the confidence of
judges, jurors, attorneys and clients. What
steps, if any, the executors Of the estate of
Mr.. Black will take to hold the business
together, we know not but whether they
do or do not hold it together an attorney of
like turn Of mind as was Mr.. Black could
sooner or later get the bulk of it back
again. Some sage wrote, "honesty is the
best policy" and nothing more clearly dem
onstrates the assumption than the life of
Mr. Black and the attorney so crooked that
If he started around the block, he would
meet himself coming back, had better save
his labor for his pains and not come to
Seattle with the hope of getting together
the clienteel of the late Andrew R. Black

undertakes to agree with Germany on the
basis of it before her army is conquered
and disarmed I should think that he should
be impeached There ought not to be a mere
repulse of Germany or a compromise of the
issues Of the war. Such a step would be
false to the dead and betrayal Of the lv
ing. It would be a mockery of all that love
and sacrifice which ore people and our allies
have given for this cause.
1T would be going back and taking out
of the slough the president's previous as
founding statement that there must be
peace without victory It would be repe-
tition of the Bolshevist treason Of Russia,
only more reprehensible, because Of the in
comparable superiority Of the people in
volved.
"a very great injury has already been
done to the war spirit Of this country by
these exchanges Of notes and the childish
and foolish statements given out by mem
bers Of the administration that Germany has
surrendered and the putting Of those state
ments in large headlines in thousands Of
papers throughout the country. Germany
could have offered to have paid $2O00,000,-
600 for such propaganda

did that would be practicing segregation,
the thing all of us have such an horror of.
In order to succeed we must lean more
heavily on merit than on clanishness. In
business forget all about the color of your
skin and your social relations and arrange
your business along the line of not only
giving value received for the mnoey you
take in, but, if that does not win, then add
to the value received program the efficiency
and attractive features and you will come
pretty close to winning in the long run.
Every person wants to trade where he or
she thinks he can do the best and to be
branded as disloyal because you do not
trade with one of your own color, class or
nationality is hardly fair. Encourage
Jones, Brown, johnson, etc. to open up lit
tie stores where each live and you will be
advancing the black man financially and
otherwise.

THE WINE DID 1T, SAH

Once upon time, say, fo de wah, a colored
male servant was sent by his master to take
a pup to neighbor On the way he stopped
at country store to buy "drink.' While
in the back room, one Of the clerks took the
pup out and put a pig in the sack. After
getting his drink Sambo took up his sack
and proceeded on his way. On arriving at
his destination and delivering The lnessage,
he opened the sack and instead of a pup
a pig came out Mistah Jones explained
to him that he asked his master for a pup
and not pig and to take the pig back and
bring the pup. He stopped at the store on
his way home by invitation and got another
drink and this time the pig was exchanged
for the pup. After he arrived home and
and delivered Mistah Jones' message to his
master and opened the sack the pup rolled
out. With an oath the master ordered him
to return to Mr.. Jones and deliver that
pup. The whiskey at the store was ''pow-
full gOod' and he accepted another invita-
ton of the clerks to have another drink
and while doing so the pig was exchanged
for the pup. He told Mr.. Jones on reach
ing his destination that this was no pig, but
was pup, and proceeded to again open the
sack, when out walked a pig Twice be-
fore he knew it had been pup and now this
was a second time it was a pig and as he
stood and gazed down upon the little pork
er he said: "Now, Mistah Jones, you jest
keep this confound thing for it can be eth
er pig or pup" The above story kinder
reminds the writer Of barrel of soap
that was recently shipped from San Fran
cisco to Seattle. In transit the soap turned
into whiskey and remained so until the dry
squad captured it and sent it to place of
safe keeping. After the "stuff' had re-
NAMED in storage for few weeks and the
authorities called for it and the barrel was
rolled into court and opened it was again
barrel of soap 81 can't explain the af-
fair" said the keeper, 'but if you will hold
it for a while maybe it will turn to whis-
kye again. Whether the farmers pig ever
became a pup deponent verify doth not
know, but he doubts it. Whether the soap
under judicial observation turned to whis-
key deponent verify doth not know, but
this he doubts If, however, there had been
less indulging Gin the juice Of the for
hidden fruit" perhaps the pup would mover
have been pig and vice versa, nor the
barrel of soap would never been barrel of
whiskey and vice versa.

ARMISTICE MT

By all means grant the Huns an armitice
it would be inhuman to not do so, but be
sure they have laid down their arms and
Internationally surrendered and the Ger
man government under the direction Of the
Allies before so doing. If the Associate
Press dispatches can be relied upon the
Kaiser just now is very much in the same
condition as was Napoleon at the battle of
Waterloo, when being pressed on all sides
by Wellingtons forces, in agony he ex-
claimed: "Would to God that night or
Grouchy would come" In like agony to-
day the Kaiser is calling for an armistice
or winter to come, lest his entire empire be
over run by the all conquering Allies-ar-
mistice nit-unless unconditional surrender
and the occupying of German country by
the Allies
Senator Poindexter is on the right trail
in wanting President Wilson's note writing
to the German government pirporting to
represent the United States government to
come to an abrupt end No one man in the
United States has the right to talk peace
with Germany in any shape, form or fash
ion-President Wilson to the contrary not
withstanding therefore all this CORE
spondence between President Wilson and
Kaiser Wilhelm is wasted energy. Just now

Old Glory and keep it up until the Hun
flag has been let down.
In the last presidential campaign the
Democratic party industriously circulated
the report that Candidate Hughes was
pro-German, which more or less initiated
against Mr. Hughes at the polls and
rumor has it that President Wilson
fathered the campaign camouflage. Now
that the war with Germany gives evil
dence of being on it's last legs and more
than likely to end before the next presi-
dental campaign opens. President Wilson
has begun an exhaustive lot of correspond
ence with the German government, evident
ly with the idea that he is anxious to tenn
per the coming punishment in store for the
Germans with mercy, which would seem to
have for it's object the capturing of the pro-
German vote in the next presidential cam
paign. We have no objection to the presi-
dent capturing the pro-German vote for his
party, but we object to hvaing this country
compromised in the eyes Of the world in or
der to capture that objectional vote of the
North to aid the murderous Huns Of the
South to continue their rule or ruin policy
