Archie McCullom, who is in charge
of the Douglas on Pine creek, came
ur Tuesday to vote and fraternize FOR
a day with his numerous friends. Like
all other mines on Pine creek, there IS
little evidence Of life around the
Douglas. One man is extending the
Marmion tunnel, which continues TO
show up nice shoot of ore, in places
as much as two feet of good milling

found in Douglas ore. The future o.
Pine creek depends upon railroau

4 Brave Yankee Boy
(By Rev. D. M. Helmick)

I've a story to tell of a Yankee boy
fighting
In the trenches of France for hu-
manity's cause,
And like our forefathers with Free
dom's torch lighting.
No foe of the helpless could stand
where he was.
All around him were felons just fresh
from the slaughter
OF those who were helpless and IN
noeent too
The infant, the mother, the son and
the daughter
We're victims alike where the black
eagle flew
He knew nothing of fear Of shrapnel
or jennies,
And numbers with him were all in
the game
Though the odds were against him as
dollars to pennies
He made the world proud of Amer
ica's name.
For he met them alone, this hero of
ours
Nor faltered at sight of the numer-
Gus Hun,
With faith in the right he summoned
his powers
And fought till the last of his foes
were undone.
The shadows of evening already had
settled
And covered the scene with the pail
of the night;
His foes at his daring most surely
were nettled,
For lone Yankee boy had put up
the fight
Thus he came to his end with glory
surrounded;
The victory was worth all the sac
rifice made
With bombs and with steel his foes he
COMPOUNDED
And all bit the dust where our hero
Sometime the next day as his COM
rades advancing
Came to the shell hole where
Rights champion lay,
They saw the SCARED face, twas
vision enhancing
The smile of the victor just ending
the fray.

EVERY TOOTH OF THE DRAGON
MUST BE PULLED.

There must be no leniency in fixing
the terms of peace with Germany.
She must be rendered absolutely i'm
potent so far as her ability to make
war is concerned, and this condition
must be made permanent AS nav
al power she must be eliminated en-
tirely and her military strength, If
such it may be called, must be limit
ed merely to an enlarged police force
to preserve internal order. She must
must be regarded as national Grim
inal serving a life sentence, kept con-
stantly under the direct surveillance
of the allied powers. In no other way
can the peace of the world be made
secure She must have no voice in
determining her fate. She has defied
the civilized world with the confessed
purpose of placing the yoke of servi
tude upon the people of every civiliz-
ed nation. 1t is absurd at this time to
draw any nice distinction between
the German government and the Ger
man people. The government that is
now crumblng under the assaults of
the allies was satisfactory to the
German people, as evidenced by the
vicious determination with which they
for it. Changing its form when the
shells of retribution begin to fall on
German soil, when the minions of the
kaiser are being driven back across
the Rhine, and when the vassal sup
porters of Germany are crying for
quarter, does not change the heart
of the kultured Hun" The real Ger
man conception of German destiny
and the military methods by which it
was to be brought about was frank
ly and brutally told by Hindenburg
before the world war was launched
by Germany. Here is the way this
idol of the German people expressed
it,.
war Is the natural occupation
Of soldier when not engaged in
fighting, however he may be oc-
cupied he is occupied uselessly
He Is like a barrister without
briefs or surgeon without pa
tients.
In the next European war you
will see killing on the biggest
scale you ever saw before. 1t will
be war not between nations,
but between races.
"Barbarians understand war
better than we Europeans. They
have no rules, no code, no con-
ventions in war
Kill your enemy in any way
you can, and when you have Kill
ed him in sufficient numbers, so
that he can no longer resist you,
enslave him--that is the barbar-
ian theory of war, and it is the
right one"
Hindenburg Is the hero of the Ger
man people and there is no doubt that |
he expressed the spirit that actuated |
them in the war Did they not re-
joice and celebrate when the news
came of murder of men, women and |
children on the Lusitania? Did they |
not approve the Belgian horror-the
murder of peaceful men, the violation
of womanhood and the implement of
innocent babes, and the enslavement
of thousands of Belgian people? Hin
6enburg spoke for the German people
when he approved the barbarian
method of warfare Defeat has sub
dued not changed the spirit of the
German people. The mere change in
the form of government brings no Sc
curity. Like any other criminal Ger
many must be deprived of all means
to escape her just punishment.

1T WORKED WE'LL.

The first season of national day.
l%ight-saving is nearly over. Public
officials, business and professional
people and laboring men in many parts
of the country declare it a complete
success. It is estimated that several
million dollars were saved in the re-
duced use of artificial lights and pow
er.
There is one advantage Of the sys-
tenn which is hard to measure in any
terms, although it is Of real impor-
lance. That is the health and enjoy
ment that has come to individuals
through their extra hour of sunlight
after the days work was done. Mil
lions of people made use of that time
in seeking healthful relaxation and
recreation in the sunshine and open
air which would have been impossible
without the daylight saving system,
War gardeners could stay in their
gardens longer than usual, and the
result was excellent for both.
The actual turning ahead Of clocks
and watches was a much simpler
achievement than many people had
feared. Nobody will mind turning
them back again on October 9th
But most folks will look forward tt
the change the other way forward
next spring.

Complaints as to the loyalty of
persons were filed with the council.
Under date of September 8. Lieut..
Isaac Clark filed the following:
i complain Of '--, of Castle
ton, for going to the ministerial army
and serving as a conductor of teams
IN Kings service as does appear by
his writing"
1t appears that a lot of the disfoy-
alists who Joined the English army
left their families behind and in many
instances they were not only a charge
on the public, but they acted as spies
for the British. To correct this sit
uation, the council made an order that
"All persons who have Joined or may
hereafter join the British and left or
may hereafter leave their wives and
families within this state, have their
wives and families sent to General
Burgoynes' headquarters"
On November 16, 1777, the council
made an order recommending that the
committee of safety of each town in

minute details is evidenced by an

evident that the open season on game
must have been in the month of De.

month in 1777 an order is made per-
hitting Andrew Hawley to take his
gun, after he had obtained permission
from his local committee on safety
but he is to return the gun to the
local committee within six weeks from

STAND BY H WAR"

Chairman Will H. Hays Of the Re-
publican national committee in a
speech before the Michigan Republi-
can state convention recently sound
ed the slogan of the Republican par
ty, "Stand BY the War;. In doing
so, he caustically handled the efforts
of the Democratic party to capitalize
the war and make a partisan asset of
the blood and treasure which all
Americans are spending. His speech
was as follows:
The Republic.ns'par+y. aays to the
country, "Stand by the War;" And in
this declaration Of purpose is included
the slogan which the Democratic par
ty seems to have adopted, "Stand by
the Presidents duty which Repub-
licans have assumed as matter Of
course as to all that which the great
office implies. It includes far more
than this; it includes stand by every
public official, high or low, measured
by the .thoroughness with which that
public official stands by the war;
stand by the government; stand by
this country; stand by u allies;
stand by our soldiers in France;
stand by every effort for war-saving

aims of this country to vindicate
American rights, interests and honor,
to forever end the intolerable AFRO

ity, to forever end Prussianism in the
world and the oppression which it
typifies, and make certain forever
the inability of militarism, German or
otherwise, again to disturb the peace
of the world, stand against an incon-
elusive peace and stand for a peace
with a victory.
All this we say-"Stand by the
War"-and for this purpose we dedi-
cate the last Of our blood and our
treasure.
l hold in my hand a pamphlet which
is being circulated by the Democratic
national committee and signed by an
officer of that committee. 1t is a let
ter dated September 10, 1918, and in
this they say the election of a Re-
publican congress would be "a source
of comfort and citation to the kaiser
and his cohorts"
Against this unpatriotic conduct by
a responsible political organization, I
protest not as a Republican, but as an
American.
Again l say such statements do not
harm particularly the party against
which they are directed. On the con-
trrary, perchance they call attention
to the strength of our candidates and
the weakness in many places of the
opposition. We seek in vain to un-
derstand the mental gymnastics of

AN OLD TIME
MEDICINE IMPROVED

Laxanodine is based on the private
prescription of DR.. R. B. Moore of
Gwinette, Ga. in which there has
been an improvement made by sub
stituting a distilled extract of man
drake for the common water extract,
which separates the properties that
act on the liver from the irritating
resin that injure the stomach. Lax
anodine is combination of liver
medicine with tonic and healing medl-
cine, and is far superior to other pre-
parations for liver, stomach and bow
el troubles. Fine for bilious fever,
jaundice, sick headache, Indigestion,
constipation and dysentery or bowel
troubles. Sold on a guarantee to

WILL 1T BE HOWARD OR
HARDWICK IN COBB

Mr.. Voter, do you want Mr.. Hard
wick to carry Cobb couty for Sen
ator on the 18th, of September? If
YOU don't then you had better rally
to the support of Hon. VIM. schley
Howard. Mr.. Harris is out OF the
running in Cobb county, as anybody
YOU see from any part of the county
will tell you. If the opposition to
Senator Hardwick will rally around
Mr.. Howard and vote for him, he can
carry the county. If the few scat
tering Harris votes continue to fight
for him then the county is in danger,
the result is for you to determine.
What are you going to do about it.
Bill Schley Howard has been in
public life for eighteen years. Not
a candidate in the field against him
has ever dared to question his loyal
ty, or the wisdom of single vote
cast since he has been in public life.
They don't dare to attack his record
on this line. He is one hundred per
cent American. He answered the
call of his country in the Spanish
American war and served throughout
that war. He has stood by his COM
manding Chief in the present war
with absolute answering devotion
and loyalty. Clark Howell and Ed
Brown cannot destroy his political life
by their cowardly assault upon him.
We repeat, if you don't want Sena-
tor Hardwick to carry Cobb county
YOU had better get busy at once and
help Mr.. Howard.
The contrast between Mr.. Howard
and Mr. Harris is marked. For eigh-
teen years Mr.. Howard has been in
public life, elected by the people, 10y
ally standing by his people, and sup
porting the government. For num-
Der of years Mr.. Harris has been hold
ing Offices to which he was appointed
and being supported by his govern
ment. Mr.. Howard can point to his
record with pride, and none dare at
tack him. Mr.. Harris has no record
to point to.

PRAISES Y. M. C. A.

Lieutenant Chappell, of Columbus,
who is at the front in France, writes: !:
"Here's another thing I've learned.
The Y. NJ. C. A. man is a thorough
bred. Not five minutes ago | was
convinced. The day is bright and
clear, and shells are landing pretty
well all over the trenches just tapping
first in one spot and then in another.
It's one of the days men don't move
about for exercise. Up the front line
trench comes the Y. M. C. A. man, a
middle aged man, friend of every sol
dier. He carried two packs, one on
each side, filled with oranges, tobacco
and candy, kinder like Santa Claus.
His prices are lower than at home,
and he calls, come on boys, help
yourself and pay me pay day! At
times he brings in the Paris papers,
printed in English. Many sneaking
remarks I've heard about the Y. M.
C. A. man but from observation here
in the front line trenches, l find he's
made of good stuff, is too busy in the
trenches to take issue with those who
criticize him and as general rule,
he is man past military age limit.
The Y. M. C. A. man is all right. He
winds in and out the first lines, visits
the post and dugouts every day, rain
or shine, whether shrapnel is flying
or not. He's no Stacker but wears
the steel helmet and gas mask along
with the others. A French sergeant
who speaks pretty fair English tells
the tale that Y. M. c. A. man spied
an abandoned dugout on the edge of
the advanced barb wire and prompt
ly asked whom he should see to get
the use of that place for a hut.
When man growls at the Y. M. G.
A. War Worker he admits by his re-
mark that he never saw the front.
