CIVILIZATIONS HOPE

The bugle that sounded the notes
Of peace across the broken world on
November IL constituted a call to
America to save the people of the
wrecked nations from starvation
Though the victory was without par
allel, and will make easier the burd-
ems of men in the coming years,
Americas task of succoring the
needy must go on until the hungry
millions find relief.
Peace has suddenly increased three
or four-fold the numbers we must
feed. The starving civilians of those
countries that have surrendered and
those which have been released
from the bondage of the Central
Powers, neutral and foe, as well as
friend, must be saved by us. The
pinciple for which our and the Allied
soldiery fought demand it.
1t marks the beginning of that
universal amity which shall charac-
terize the kind of civilization, for
the futherance and uplifting of
which more than 100000 heroes
have gone to their death.
The blood and tears that were shed
in this awful conflict have sobered,
and should sanctify, mankind to
the utmost bounds of the earth. With
the signing of the armistice terms
there doomed a newer and loftier
civilization, in which those righteous
nations that endured much will grow
nobler still, and by the sublimity of
their deeds in the. days to come lift
up the Ubiquitous from the slough of
their misunderstanding.
Michigan has part to play in this
exemplary work. Proud of the op-
portunity she will save and give to
the last full measure of her devo-
ton.
Our self-denial is a small price to
pay for the privilege of helping salv-
age our saviors and the furnishing
millions who have unjustly suffered
in the noblest cause that ever in
spired humanity. A small price for
the touch of kinship with the brave
men, the long-suffering women, the
little children, living and dead, who
shall reap the victory unto eternity.

DROWN EDIN RIVER.


George A. Torrey was drowned in
Union river, near the Mouth of the River,
last Thursday. Mr.. Torrey, whose home
was on the ''shore road" near the river,
had gone out in his boat to pick up drift
wood.
W hen he did not return home Thursday
evening, his wife became alarmed, bur
did not give a general aIarm until Friday
morning. Search then disclosed the
boat, filled with water, on the opposite
size OF the river. The body was not re-
covered until late Saturday afternoon,
near the point where the boat had gone
ashore. 1t is supposed that he overloaded
his boat with wood, and it filled while
he WAS crossing the river.
Mr. Torrey was a native OF Ellsworth, o.,
but for more than thirty years had lived
away. most of the time at Bridgeport. In
that city, for some years, before the in
PRODUCTION OF electric street lights, he had
the contract for lighting the gas street
lamps, employing q crew OF several men
in the work. He returned to Ellswort h
about two years ago,
Mr.. Torrey WAS sixty-two years OF age.

Mr. Gaines through his untiring
speaking campaigns and by the ad-
yertising that. his supporters have
voluntarily done for him, has plac-
ed tha issues and the merits of his
claim for this nomin alton to the
front and they are pretty we'll un-
ueFstooa by most OF the voters ol
the state and he rests his case in
their hands,
He has pushed his opponents
across the political Marine, they

As the lime grows closer for

Gaines, the talented Kanawha state
man. as the Republican standard
bearer, are coming in from over
lithe hills to the capital city from
all parts of the state.
Rapid Change OF Sentiment
Mr.. Gaines was the latest to en-
ter the race, but having once made

of his friends that he must make
the race, he resigned as chairman
fof the Republican state executive
committee and entered the fight
like the Old political gladiator he
has always been and never before
in a statewide contest has senti-
