THE LIST is GRWIONG.

Eight thousand casualties since the,
first American contingent landed lin
France.
Over three thousand deaths from
disease. accident, or wounds received
in action.
This is the loss sustained by the
United States so far in the war against
Germany 1t will mount higher as the
weeks 60 by. Each week viii claim a
still eavier toll; indeed, m, returns
day by day are now increasing so that
it is appalling to read them.
But there must be no finching. We
must expect to pay heavy price. We
must make the sacrifice of men. as
well as of luxuries. We cannot win
the war without shedding blood.
The summary of our lossas, as pub
Iished this week, shows to what an
extent the United States is participat-
lng, and furnishes a forecast on what
we may expect in the future. W.i;h
thousands of our boys on the front
line, we must be prepared for the
shock of losing many of Them. and
for every one who falls we should
make new resolve to do something
oursely es, "over here" and that will
ccautuhte to the winning OF the war.

and the privations which just now are
keenly felt"
This is a most significant utterance,
really the most damning admission
that has come out of Germany, uttered
as it is by the head of the nation 1t
wildly portrays the condition of the
German people, who have oeen repre-.
scented in the meager reports reaching
us as being sternly in want of food,
as we'll as clothing There is no doubt
of the fact that the Allied blockade
Of Germany has been a great deal
mere effective than the u-boat blockade
Of England, though less has been sad
about it. Germany is unable to i'm
port as it once did, and its own manu-
featuring plants are largely closed for
lack of material on which to operate.
The crops, too, have undoubtedly de-
creased, because of the tremendous
toll of man-power taken by the army
There are substitutes for everything,
more than three thousand having been
inv ented since the war; even substi-
tute for beer, a substitute for tobacco,
and now a liquid preparation which is
advertised to alleviate ''that hungry
feeling"
Undoubtedly, in view Of these we'll
authenticated conditions, the German
people are enduring ''sufferinga and
privations which just now are keenly
felt" The Kaiser says so, and he
ought to know. 1t is undoubtedly true
also that the morale of the German
army, as well as the morale of the Ger
mans back home, depends largely on
just how long the people will continue
to patiently submit to these sutfertngs
and privations. Once the sph : o: re-
bellion breaks loose, it will become a
mighty torrent too powerful even for
the formidable system of Prussian mil
itarism to suppress. In the prospect
of that there lies as much hope of
peace as in the eventual subjugation
of Germany by the Allies.

CONVINCING EVIDENCE.


Harris campaign for the United States
Senate is the fact that some of the
ablest and most prominent men OF
Georgia are giving it their unstinted
support and most cordial endorse
ment
Judge Andrew j. Cobb, of Athens,
former supreme court justice, is active
in behalf of Mr.. Harris, making public
speeches in advocacy of the election of
the former chairman of the Federal
Trade commission.
Hon. w. S. Howard, of Augusta, for
many years the distinguished con-
gresham from the Eighth district, and
one of the leading public men of the
state, is on the stump for MIR. Harris.
Hon w H. Burwell, former speaker
of the House of Representatives, not
only retired from the, race in favor Of
Mr.. Harris, but is vigorously cam
paigning in his support.
John R. L. Smith, of Macon, one o Il
the keenest lowyers in Georgia, who
seeks no favors for himself, and has mo-
ak to grind, is speaking in all sections
of the state for Mr.. Harris
These are merely a few of the men
who. at the sacrifice CT time and effort,
have placed the stamp of appreciation,
on Mr. Harris, and are helping him to,
prove to the world that, in spite of,
Hardwick, Georgia is loyal and pa
triotic state.
Some question the ability of Mr.. Har-ii
ris to fittingly represent Georgia in
the United States Senate, some who,
are not we'll informed and many who,
perhaps, do not want to believe that
he is. But it would appear that the
verdict of men like Cobb and Howard
and Burwell and Smith and others of
similar high calibre would he sufficient
to set all doubts at rest Judge Cobb
knows public men and knows what it
.akes to constitute an able one. Mr..
by reason of his own splendid
service in Congress, knows what it
axes to be a good congressman. Mr. |
on account of his long legis-
alive experience, is able to determine if
man is of senatorial size. And so it
soes. And these men, without reser-
yation, have proclaimed to the people
If the state that from among all the;
candidates for the United states Sen
me, Mr.. Harris is the one best equip
)ed to be chosen for the high honor.
No higher tribute has ever been paid
o any candidate in this state. No
candidate for Office in Georgia has yer
lad such an imposing array oe men
Jumping the state for him, either. And
what is more significant still is this,
here is not a single other candidate
who is receiving that kind and degree
Of support. Mr.. Harris is the only
candidate in whose behalf prominent
public men of the state ire publicly
advocating.
1t is such as this that forecasts the
overwhelming election of Mr.. Harris
and the crushing defeat of Hardwick,
wick.
