Communicated

Mr.. Editor: e
We have just read the action
taken by the Army of our State
somewhere in France.
We heartily endorse that senti-
ment. We ought to have all the
offices filled by those competent
young men who have been doing
their all for democracy. Why not
elect them to every office in the
County. We need Legislators and a
FIRST CLASS SENATOR FOR OUR
COUNTY.
We appeal to all voters who love
this glorious country not to promise
their votes to any Of the stay at
homes, but wait and see whom Of
our brave and loyal soldier boys
want an office.
These noble boys have given their
all to the protection of our lives.
our homes and our families and
have assisted in making this
county and the world safe for de-
mOcracy.
Let every patriotic voter in old
Monroe remember the boys who
have so freely done their all for our
country; God bless and protect our
noble soldier boys!
| have no ak to grind. but | want
the boys who fought for ~. or who
went to the war to have the right to

N Must Continue Our Work


If there be any of Our citizens
who have imagined that cOntinu-
ance of war work activities are
unnecessary, they should at once
| get that mistaken idea out of their
heads. True. the war is oyer SO
far as the active fighting is con-
cerned, but il must be remember
ed that the war can not safely be
counted as over until the settle
ment comes by peace and the
warning nations have subscribed
to its terms. Technically, the war
is not over; an armistice does not
comprehend that idea in its en-
tirelty. The war can not be over
until our troops have been de-
modified and distributed in civil
ian pursuits as completely as
when before they took up arms
at the call of u country. AS
long as they are in uniform they
are soldiers and depend upon the
patriotic support of the civilian
population for subsistence and
comforts as If each day they were
marshaled on the battlefield in
mortal conflict with the enemy.
Thousands of them still wear the
uniform and may wear it yet for
a number of days. In the mean
time, they must be provided
every comfort 10 make lighter
their separation from friends and
home. The war work activities
must be kept going. Mississippi.
among other states in our great
country has responded nobly and
abreast with any other division,
and will continue to do SO as long
as the call goes out from the
country for money contributions
and service. Nobly have the
people of Monroe county re-
sponded to the last United War
Work call. Money was gener-
ously paid and pledged. The
pledges. if any have not been re-
deemed must be liquidated. The
boys in France need the comforts
that money will procure for
them. The war is not oyer and
will not be over until all our boys
are at home and settled down in
peaceful pursuits. We must
continue TO be active and gener-
Gus in our contributions to the
war work activities both of
money and service. We must
redeem our pledges; continue TO
buy War Savings and Thrift
Stamps. and keep our member
ships alive in the Red Cross.
Every red blOoded American
will do this if he understands that
it is necessary, and he will under
stand that ii is necessary until
every one of our boys comes back
aud is again sheltered within the
protecting care of the grand old
L. 5. a. under the home family
tree.

A Soldier for Governor

From France comes a reSOlu-
ton unanimously adopted by the
l55th division composed of Mis-
sissippi troops, proposing and
endorsing Maj. j. c. Sheffield as
the next governor of Mississippi.
The note gives previous an
nOunCement that the boys in
Kakhi mean TO take charge of
political affairs when they get
home. If they can make as com
plete success of running the gov
eminent as they have achieved
in France in downing the Kaiser,
there is never a MissisSippian
that will say nay. A military
campaign and a political cam
paign, however. are cut along
different lines, and this may de-
velOp when the political cam
paignS in this country have been
projected by soldiers. The can
didateS who have wrought nobly
over there may run up on
tricks and Strate0ies hat will be
more difficult TO overcome than
the best trick the Kaiser ever car
rlcd in his sack. Especially will
they find this true in Mississippi
where tricks, strategies and poll
teal gyrationS have run SO much
10 riot in recent years The
soldier. if he measures abreast
with civilian candidates for the
some position, of course, will
have the right of way, but his
having displayed military aptness
and prOwreSS in war can in no
way compensate for want Of pre-
paration and experience that are
essential in the make up of a
competent executive.
