-W. 5. S.- INFLUENZA NOT YET ABATED.

Persons who have ;. congratulated themselves that they have escaped the Spanish Flu should not be too pre- vious in self-congratulation. The au- thorities assert that thru hard work the disease has been checked but gives no. assurances that the epidemic would not reach even larger propor- tions in the future.
 There is all the more need for care- ful attention to the avoidance of the disease at the present time. Officials of Jefferson county and Pine Bluff have sounded a warming that citi- zens must not relax viligance in the matter. They urge that all precautions taken with the beginning and during the crest of the malady be taken. A little carelessness would undo all that hhs been accomplished.
 ? Pine Bluff and Jefferson county health and other officials are to be commended for their prompt actions in taking means to combat the dis ease and credit is due them for the local situation.

ITALIANS AGAIN.

After several weeks of inactivity the Italians on the Italian front have launched another major offensive. From present indications the Aus tria-Hungarians are being driven from the heights of Monte Grappa and down into the lowlands of the Piave and Brnta rivers.
 The Austria Hungarian troops have held forth in the mountainous regions for several months. However, it now appears that General Diaz, commander of the Italians is meet ing with great success in the break. ing of these strongholds.
 It is also to be noted that the ene- my troops morale has been apparently weakened. The accounts of the fight ing state that little or no resistance is being offered by the demoralized army. It will not be surprising to military officials that this entire front is caved in by Diaz's offensive.

President Wilson at the present time and for the future.
 If the Allied nations decide to draft armistice terms Colonel House will probably be delegated to repres- ent the United States in the formu- lating of the terms that will be laid down to the Germans, that they may secure an armisice.
 The Supreme War Council will probably meet early this week. Inter- esting developments are expected. Just what action the allied nations will take in regard to putting arm istice terms before Germany is of in- terest turnout the civilized world.
 Colonel House being on the ground will certainly be in a position to give President Wilson concrete evidence of the proceedings, including inter- esting sidelights of the things hap pening.
 Admiral Benson's part is not gen. orally known. It is presumed how ever, he will be a naval adviser in regard to terms for the handling of the enemy's naval situation, provid- ed an armistice is drafted to be put before the Germans.
 If this latter course is pursued it will mean that the Germans can "put up or shut up." It will demonstrate whether or not they desire peace, a Democratic government and an abdi- cation of the Kaiser or if they desire to "back the emperor to the last ditch"

REPUBLICANS RAMPANT.

The Republican propaganda launch ed by Henry c. Lodge, Reed Shoot of the Senate and Fred H. Gillette and Simon D. Fess of the house, attack ing the address of President Wilson or rather his appeal to the Demo- crats of the country lacked two essen tial features. The first was the fact that Senator Sherman and Teddy Roosevelt failed to indorse the state ments attacking the presiding power of this country. The second was the fact that it was not sworn to before notorious of the public"
 The Republican party in the con crete has not backed the administra- tion from partisan standpoint. The party it is true gave money and oth-- CT things essential to successfully prosecute the war. This is nothing to hold up before the public's eye. One is patriotic from sense of duty and not from any partisan standpoint.
 It is admitted that President Will son may have gone to a little more length than was absolutely necessary in making his appeal to the Demo- crats to return a Democratic house and senate. However, at the same time his appeal is based on past act ions of the Republican leaders in both houses.
 In looking over the records it is easy to determine those who have harrangued and harassed his polices at every turn. Henry Cabot Lodge has been the ringleader of this propo- ganda for several months past. It is not surprising that flaws and defieien- cies are found in the appeal made to the Democrats by the President.
 It is the same old cry of "wolf." No one is fooled any more by the bleat- ing of the sheep. Good Republicans who have stood behind the admins tration have no fear. Those that have not. will not be saved by the attack launched in their defense by the Re- nublican party organization. Lodge, Sherman ct als., have not played their cards face up and the people are aware that their cries of "wolf" are not founded on concrete facts.
 The country is behind President Wilson and will stand by him until the waters of hades freeze over. The Allied nations are of the opinion that he is about the "best ever." We have known it for some time and no one win ever change this opinion by par tisan cries.

GO TO PAY LOSSES
1'wG.thlrds of Marine Insurance by Government Goes to Pay for
 Losses of Ships and CargOes.

Washington, Oct. 26.-Despite the governments low marine insurance rate and the losses suffered through the submarine off the American coast, less than tw0-thirds of the premiums paid to the marine section of the War Risk Insurance Bureau have gone to pay losses.
 This was shown today by report that between September 2. 1914, when the bureau was organized, and Oc- tcter 15, 1918, $1.S46. 6.497. 900 insur- ance was written on ships and their caIgoes, mainly on ships passing through the war zone, involving pre- minm payments on 24,990 policies of s45,S25, ,000, and that losses were $2a,775, ,OOO. Profit to the govern ment was $16,05O,00O. All but $3O5,- 442,OO0 of the insurance has been written since the sUnited States en- tered the war.

impulse toward world democracy which this war is
giving and what America has done to help. He
takes up the now famous programme of the British
Labor Party and shows it the expression OF the
world spirit now a-borning. But the analysis and
speculation Mr.. Churchill reveals in this essay are
not in any way striking. Many a news

out of us with his description of the sinking of
Lusitania could write as presentable essay.
Whereas Mr.. Churchill has earned reputation of
