OUR WAR EXPENDITURES.

If we had gone into this war in
lukewarm fashion we would most
certainly have kept a tighter grip
on our purse-strings. But we were
confronted with a great crisis in the
human race in which mere money
counted for little.
We realized this at once and no
attempt has been made to be par
simonious.
The battle against Germany has
cost us s14,OOO,00O,O0O to date, in
cluding approximately $8,O0O,OOO,-
600 loaned the Allies. The cost is
mounting at the rate of $65,OOO,-
600 daily. Compare this with the
civil war, which created a sensation
when 1T reached cost of $1,OOO,OOO
a day. But this war Is about 65 times
as terrible as the civil war and there
fore costs 65 times as much!
In the middle of May-when fin
ancial reports were last made pub
lie we had loaned our seven associat-
es in tie war $7,O63.SOO, or
about half of what the war had cost
us up to that time. We are loaning
unstintingly right along, carrying
their burdens as well as our own.
To do this we have floated three
Liberty loans-and over-subscrib-
ed all. The first was for two billion
dollars, the second for more than
four billion. and the third for more
than four billion. Exact subscriptions
were: First. $3.025.226.S50; second,
$4,617,532.3OO; third, $4,15O,OOO
900. There were from Is to 20
million subscribers to the third loan.
In addition to this, we are floating
of war savings
stamps by the end of the year.
This doesn't look as if we were
sleeping financially!
All our war revenues do not come
rom loans, however, as those who
pay war taxes realize. President Will
son is farthering more war revenue
in which a feature will
be the proposed 80 per cent tax on
excess war profits. This will prac-
Iically eliminate war profiteering.
The tax meets with general APPROX
al because very few people believe
anyone should be permitted to wax
unduly wealthy from the war.

There was something about that
meeting of the cotton farmers at Co
lumbia Monday that one has not
seen at former meetings of the kind
In the meeting were several hun
dred strong. resourceful, intelligent
looking men. There was a business
air about them that did not fail to
attract attention, and they went a.
bout work before them in business
like manner. There was not so much
speech-making. Heretofore meetings
of this kind have been talked to
death, but there was not a single
talk at this meeting that lasted over
ten minutes. DR.. Stackhouse out
lined the plan for acreage reduction
and price fixing and then Don Nc
Queen backed up DR.. Stackhouse's
resolutions for acreage reduction and
price-fixing with a ten-minute talk
on the cotton situation that seemed
to touch every man in the audience.
mere were short talks by L. ID. Jen-
nlngs and +. w. Dabbs of Sumter, ID.
X. Coker of Hartsville, and others
and the resolutions were passed with
out dissenting vote. The acrea ge
reduction plan seemed to be popular.
There were men from every section
OF the state who said it was the
simplest and plainest and mos.
equitable way Of handling the cotton
situation yet suggested. There were
men present who said they were go
ing TO adopt the plan whether it was
mad" compulsory or not-men who
had been in the habit of planting a
large acreage in cotton and small
acreage in grain The delegates to
be appointed by the State Warehouse
Commissioner will carry the plan to
the New Orleans convention. If the
New Orleans Convention adopts it
the plan will succeed.

THE ARMY.

When we were hauled into the
war by the arrogance, aggression
and unlimited gall of the Potsdam
ania crowd we had the smallest lit.
tie army of any great nation on earth
The army was so small that even the
Mexicans thought they could lick it
But less than a month after we
entered the war part of that little
army was on its way lover there
And in two months we had passed
the draft law, calling upon able
bodied citizens within the age linn
1t to hearken to the call Of war.
And within one year after the first
American left for France we have
q large army on the western front.
It is now in the neighborhood ce L.
100000 men.
During the first ten days of May
alone the troop movement overseas
was 10000; the remainder of the
month it was more than 100000. In
other words, in May alone around
100000 men were sent overseas.
And this pace. we may feel sure,
is to be continued. because we are
to strike our stride
In fact, about half our entire
army is already overseas. On June l
we had 1.889.894 men and 148,328
officers in the service, a total of g.
O38,222. OF these, as stated, about
a million are across leaving a little
more than d million in cantonments
and camps on this side. 1t may be
taken for granted, therefore that
our cantcnments and camps have a
continuous capacity To handle, 1,OOO,-
600 men. and that no matter how
large our army in France may be-
come. we will continually be training
a million more on this side and send
ing them across whenever ready.
And we have reduced the period
OF training to the minimum. We
are turning raw material into finish
ed soldiers in six months; and the
time is not far distant when our eff
flcient army officials will be devel-
oping raw recruits into good soldiers

are physically fit We will easily have
an army Of more than 5000. 900 and
all authorities agree that this is q
greater number than will be neces-
sary to put the pinchers on the kais-
er.
This article, however, Is not about
what we can do. but what we have
done.
England waited two years before
resorting to the draft; we did not
wait at all.
We have inaugurated the greatest
soldiers insurance system in the
world. thus adequately providing for
the needs of the dependents of kill
ed or manned warriors.
In spite of the draft. 900 men a
day are volunteering - and this
amounts to a good deal in a month or
q year.
The average who have "gone
over" since last December numbers
$4,000 a month, according to Wash
ington information; but the number
has increased monthly until now,
as previously stated, the 100000
mark has been reached and is being
passed.
BY the end of the year there will
be more than 100000 Americans
in France.

THEATER MAY
BE REBUILT
Much Damage done by Spec.
tacular Fire Yesterday
Afternoon. .

While no announcement was forth
coming today as to whether or not A.
j. kavanagh plans to refurnish the
Grand theater, destroyed by fire late
yesterday afternoon. it vas common
~ reported that the playhouse would
be refitted as soon as materials a
be obtained.
The fire broke out about $50 yes
terday and in the course of an hour
destroyed the interior of the Empire
building in which the theater was To-
Gated, n did much damage to stores,
offices n apartments in the build
ing. The total damage may amount
to about $4,000 of which the heaviest
part is suffered by Mr.. Kavanagh.
La Vogue and the Apparel Shop
which had stores in the building, suf-
fered losses which may approximate
a total Of between $1,000 and $4,000,
and the offices of DR.. Henry O'Keefe
and Attorney Henry O'Keefe. Jr.,
were considerably damaged by water
and smoke. Practically all office fix
lures was removed from the upper
floors Of the building at a time when
it looked as though the fire would
spread over a wider area. For a. time
the adjoining buildings were threat
ened, and in anticipation of this a
general exodus Of tenants began.
The Home Guards and the East Side
fire department rendered the local
f1remen much valuable assistance,
Enormous crowds from both sides
of h river witnessed the spectacular
fire, and for hours after the blaze got
under control, a heavy cloud of smoke
was hanging over both cities.

URGES BEEF RAISING

Juneau, Alaska, Aug. 15.-(By
Mail.)-Alaska's immense possibili-
ties for adding to the worlds supply
of beef are emphasized by Jack Nc
Donald, special liquor officer in the
Juneau district, who has made plats
Of over SO available tracts of land in
this section and turned them into the
governments office.
Mcdonald believes that with fed
eral aid starting the cattle industry in
the far north, including loans at a low
rate of interest for the purchase of
necessary farm machinery, Alaska
within five years could raise enough
beef to supply her own wants and.
ship a half million dollars worth to
the states.
Among the tracts especially suitable
for cattle raising, he says; are 1900
acres at Farragut Bay. 500 acres at
Fresh Water Bay and Hoonah. Grass

inches Of growth of June alone. AT
Taku rvier a homesteader also reports
that the red top grass on a 5,000-acre
tract stands as high as a mans head
and could be handled with q moving
machine.
Many ranchers who have studied
the matter Of raising hay in the ter
ritory recommend silos as the best
method of preserving the stock for
the use of cattle in this climate,
where the precipitation is SO great and
