GARFIELD PLANS TO
GRAB HOARDED COAL

Plans were laid yesterday by the
fuel administrators of all States east
of the Mississippi River in conference
with Director Garfield to equalize the
stores of coal being boarded by con-
sumers in that district.
A committee was appointed to re-
port a plan for storage which will be
submitted to Garfield for his ap-
proval, but more immediate action
was considered looking to regulation
Of the stocks already in storage.
1t Is probable that consumers who
have accumulated large quantities of
coal will be compelled to forego new
supplies for current needs for some
months. until other consumers can
accumulate like reserves. Where too
great a reserve has been built up, part
may be switched to other consumers

NO BIG STANDING
ARMY NEEDED.

The question of how many men
shall compose the Governments
standing army will soon be before
Congress for consideration. This
country does not need a large stand
ing army and the people do not want
it. Of course we should have some
thing near 100000 well trained men,
but the thought of the military in our
schools and everywhere is repulsive to
the American people. The high
muck-a-mucks in the army may be
expected to talk loud and long about
the need" of universal military
training and so on. The very AFRO
gance of some these fellows is the
best answer to their argument. We
know some little pe-we officers not a
thousand miles from Grenada whose
heads a real generals hat would
come down over like unto a circus
tent. This nation has existed for
nearly n hundred and fifty years
without much military and unless the
we have just fought has been in
vain, we certainly shall not have any
need for a big army for the next
twenty-five years at. least. Just as
as possible, let's get back to
normal peace conditions.

LAND FOR THE SOLDIERS?

We quite agree with the Clarion.

THE DEATH OF GORDON
.... GILLESPIE,

The supreme sacrifice made by
Gordon Gillespie in France on Oct
5uber Is, while leading his company
IN IA charge against the Huns, was
keenly felt by the newspaper frater-
nifty of Mississippi. He was a son of
the J. l.. Gillespie, owner and editor
OF the Greenwood Daily Common
wealth, who is one of the best known.
and most popular newspaper men in
Mississippi. The son was an excep-
Ssionally talented young man and
those who were closest to him regard
ed him with the greatest favor. We
sincerely sympathize with the parents
of the dead hero and trust that they
may realize that the Angels will gath
er up the golden threads which have
been broken on earth and bind them
anew in heaven.

IAAICAN NEWSPAPER PAYS
WILSON GREAT TRIBUTE.

The st. Louis Globe Democra.;cau
uncompromising Republican newspa.
per. and one of the best in the whole
country, only a few days ago paid
President Wilson a great tribute,
The editorial is too long for US to
reproduce, but it is refreshing, afte,
the political scrimage of November
and the unwarranted attacks of such
Republicans as omniverous Teddy,
spineless Taft and force-bill Lodge,
that there is great Republican
journal who puts the President upon
an eminence in craftsmanship that
should thrill every true American
with pride. The Globe-D Democrat
does itself great credit and while
placing the President on an eminencc
justly earns one for itself.
The people of the United States
take great pride in the fact that the
Afmistice was arranged onterms as
outlined bycour President and feel
proud indeed that Germany sought
u President as the real source of
final power behind the allies. We
r still prouder that the allies have
officially stated that they recognize
in Wilson's IA peace terms the only
basis upon which the worlds peace
can be secured.
And the announcement that the
allies want the President to come
across the waters to discuss with
them the final peace terms before the
peace commissioners get to work.
again shows what they think of his
brain and his craftsmanship.
Woodrow Wilson stands TODAY
first in peace, first in statemanship,
first as a leader in war, first in diplo-
macy, and first as a pilot for democ-
racy that saves'the liberties of the
world.

SOME WANTING TO
OVERDO HATING.

If there is any man in authority at
Washington, or any reputed Ameri-
citizen who wants Germany to
have mercy alone, and not justice,
we have not heard of it.. There are a
few that seem to think that the only
way to keep their patriotism from be-
ing discounted now is to insist on an
eye for an eye and a tooth for a
tooth from Germany. This is no time
for molycoddling with Germany or
with the German people. We have
felt that President Wilson and those
associated with our Government in
relied on to meet out the proper pun
ishment to Germany. The terms of
tn armistice show that every necessa-
ry step was taken in that memorable
document to penalize the Hun. All
right thinking citizens of the United
States know that the German people
did some things in this war that dis
qualify them for hell because it is too
good for them. But now that we have
whipped Germany, and We are pro-
ceeding to tie that nation hand and
foot, we should not forget the prin-
ciples we) have maintained; and that
the doctrine of hate belongs to Ger
many and not to the United States.
The United States is too great to tan
talize the meanest culprit who is in
the tolls of the law, or to withhold
that justice taught by the Sermon on
Mount. German wrongs. and out
RACES do not justify us in forgetting
that we are too great not to do right.
The German people r catching h.
now every day and what the United
States does will be done in keeping
with our glorious past.
Let US hate German ways but not
the individual German subjct. e.
