VARDAMAN SAYS NOTHING
, ABOUT GERMAN ATROCITIES.

Senator Vardaman does not fail to
point out what he regards as the mis-
takes made by Congress and Presl-
dent Wilson's blunders, still ne has
never been heard to visit his wratn
or Germany for it's atrocities or the
hellishness of the German army. Does
if not look like that a man who can
pour out so much denunciation on his
own people about politics could ma
some cause to denounce the enemies
of his country? But Vardaman SAID
four months and five days after war
was declared, Il think that the cause
Of this war was the interference on
the part of Germany with commerce
between New York and London. l
I have always thought it a matter OF
pecuniary profit and think so STILL
which in Short, means that the Sena-
tor thinks that the war was unjust,
and therefore he has nothing to de
nounce Germany for:S Is'a manNtnat

OUR WOMEN PATRIOTIC.

That Mississippi women are patrl-

occurred in a town on the A. & V.
Railroad between Jackson and New
ton recently.
A lady wanted a pair of shoes and
went into one of the stores of her
home town. In looking over the
store she noticed a large Autographed
picture of the Junior United States
Senator from Mississippi. Seeing
the picture she said nothing, but con-
tinued looking at the stock Of shoes,
and found a pair that suited her. She
started to leave the store without
making the purchase. The merchant
noting this, said:
"Did you find a pair that suited
your fancy?"

"He Is sturdy now" The chancellor

Before l see the Princess Hedwig,"
Karl made another attempt, ut might
be we'll to tell me how she feels about
things. 1 would like to feel that the
prospect is at least not d~isagreeable to
her"
The chancellor was not listening.
| There was trouble ahead. 1t had come,
then. after all. He muttered m
thing behind his gray mustache. The
horses stopped, as the crowd suddenly
closed In front Of them.
"Drive on !" he said angrily, and the
cOachman touched his whip to the
horses. But they only reared, to be
grasped at the brides by hostile hands
ahead.
Karl half rose from his seat.
"Sit still, majesty" said the chancel-
lor. 1T is the students. They will
talk, that is ALL"
But 1t came p%erilOusly nea to be-
ing a riot. Led by some students,
pushed by others, the crowd sur
rounded the two carriages, first NUT
tering, then yelling. A stone was
hurled, and struck one of the horses.
Another denied the body Of the car
riage itself. A man with a handker-
chief tied over the lower half Of his
face mounted the shoulders Of two
companions, and harangued the crowd.
They wanted no friendship with Kar-
MIA. Were they to lose their national
existence? He exhorted them madly
through the handkerchief. A babel Of

Through it all the chancellor had sat
with folded arms. Only his livid face
told of his fury. Karl, too, had sat i'm
passive, picking at his small mustache.
But, as the carriage moved on, he
said: "Alfew moments ago 1 observed
that there had been few changes. But
there has been, 1 perceive. after all, a
great change"

But Karl only raised his eyebrows.

JUST A LIE, THAT'S ALL.

From some source among those dl-
recting the campaign of Senator Var
daman in Mississippi is being c%irculat-
ed an insidious story which is intend
ed to prejudice organized labor, es-
pecially the railrod men, against Pat
Harrison. Some weeks ago it could be
heard ever and anon that Pat was OPP
posed to the 8 hour law. They were
put to rout on this. 1t was shown
from the highest congressional au-
thority that Mr.. Harrison not only
voted for the 8 hour law, but that as
a member of the steering committee,
he took a leading part in plotting it
through the lower house. Now a
bastard report is being dropped out
wherever it is thought ~expedient, that
Pat voted for compulsory arbitration.
The allegation is just a lie, there is no
other name that will fit it. Pats po-
sition in regard to arbitration was
that of every other Democrat in the
House and was in perfect accord with
President Wilson and Samuel Com
pers, the leader and recognized official
head Of organized labor in the Unit
ed States. Pat did not vote or
speak for compulsory arbitration. His
position on all legislation touching
labor since he has been in Congress
has been that approved by the heads
of the labor organizations. If he has
mot been the sincere friend of labor,
then there was never a member Of
Congress that was.
The matter is already proving a
boomerang for the Vardaman propa-
gandists. The people are looking be-
meath the surface of things this time.
Sopkists, head knockers of the buck
ing brigade. time-servers, prejudice
breeders and men of promises unfll-
ed are being told to go back and sit
down. Patriotism, real service and
not demagogery and prejudice, is to
determine the result of this election.
You can fool all the people a part
of the time and some of the peple all
the time, but you can not fool all the
people all the time"

CHAPTER XIV.
King Karl.

! 80. a. 81, ;, King Karl. ~"
"They love US dearly! said King
The chancellor, who sat beside him
In the royal carriaAe, shrugged his
shoulders. "They have had little rea.
son to love, in the past. majesty" he
said briefly.
Karl laughed. and watched the
crowd. He and the chancellor rode
alone, Karl's encourage, a very modest
one, following in another carriage.
There was no military escort, no pOmp.
1t had been felt unwise. Karl, paying
iostensibly a visit Of sympathy, had
come unofficially.
The chancellor was not so calm as
he appeared. He had lined the route
from the station to the palace with his
men; had prepared for every contin-
gency so far as he could without call
ing out the guard. AS the carriage,
drawn by it's four chestnut horses.
moved slowly along the streets, his
eyes under their overhanging thatch
were watching ahead, searching the
crowd for symptoms of unrest.
Anger he saw in plenty, and
suspicion. Scowling faces and frown-
ing brows. But as yet there vas no
disorder. He sat with folded arms,
magnificent in his uniform beside Karl,
who wore civilian dress and looked
less royal than perhaps he felt.
And Karl, too, watched the crowd.
feeling its temper and feigning an in
difference he did not feel. Olga Los
chek had been right. He did not want
trouble. More than that, he was Of
an age now to crave popularity. Many
of the measures which had made him
beloved In his own land had no higher
purpose than this, the smiles Of the
crowd. So he watched and talked Of
Indifferent things.
ut Is ten years since I have been
here, he observed, sbdt there are few
changes"
