The great battle in progress since last Friday in northern
France is engaging the attention of the whole world. Stripped
to the skin, the battle shows that Germany has no regard for
the lives of it's men. They are thrown forward and into the
mouths of the cannons of the allies with an abandon and a reck-
1essness equal to the savages of centuries ago. Success and a
protection of the German arlords, the German aristorcracy,
is what is desired by the Kaiser. The Kaiser cares naught for
how many is killed if he can save his official hide. 1t would
seem that no man, that no general, not insanely mad, could tell
his men to go forward against the intrenchments, against the
deadly and destructive war machinery of the present day as
the Kaiser has done. The great struggle now in progress shows
the desperation of Germany. 1t shows that it knows that it must
do or die. It is doing but is going to die. No people whose acts
are characterized by that criminality, savagery, butchery and
deviltry that the Germans show can triumph over Nations COM
mltted to the tenetS of true civilization and christianity.
The allies have fallen back but in doing so, they have done
what Joseph E. Johnston did for the soldiers of the Confeder-
acy under his command. His retreats were more disastrous to
the enemy than the enemy's onslaughts to his army. The allies
have done what they have done in order and in accordance with
a forward view and not with brute force, and brute force can
not triumph over brains, backed by the spirit of the Golden
Rule.
Let US renew our faith. Let us go forward in this great
war in the Name of Hin who said, eco teach all nations" pro-
foundry and sacredly believing in the righteous of our goven-
ment, the integrity and the wisdom of our leaders and the JUS
tice of our cause.
Truth has never yet been crushed by violence. God reignsI
and has never yet failed to smile on that people who properly
reverred womanhood and who made religion, home and family
their chief concern.

THE PAT HARRISON GATHERING.

The great gathering of the friends of Hon. Pat Harrison
in jackson last Monday left no doubt in the mind of any one
who listened to what these men, gathered as they were from
every part of the state, said, that the issue now uppermost IN
the minds of the people of Mississippi is loyalty and coopera-
ton with the government. And it may not be amiss to remark
that a large per cent of those present were supporters OF Mi.
Harrison's opponent in the last senatorial campaign. This gath
ering showed very strongly that it did not believe much IN
death bed repentances. 1t showed that it had rather risk a
man who would cooperate with the fire company to gather ma
terials to prevent a fire than the man who could see no good IN
the fire company and who would do nothing but obstruct fire
prevention, but became yociferous about what he would like
to see done" after the building was on fire, The senatorial race
now on in Wisconsin shows that loyalty is the slogan through
out the country. The people every where want no German
ikers. Pure and undefled Americanism is the standard. There
are some fellows who are soft peddGng now, because OF the
strong arm of the law, that have a tongue more to be dreaded
than seven viperS when they are beyond the reach OF the voter.
1t is better always to silence one man than to suffer the loss OF
is better always to silence one man than to suffer the loss OF
seven cities. Silence is sometimes golden and in that sense Mis-
sissippi is going to golden the political career of one of her

WITH OUR EXCHANGES

The candidate for g~oVeTlcf Who
entcrs the contest on a platform to
lean out the Augean stables IS the
candidate to win. A strong, clean
man with the confidence of the peo-
ple and the nerve to stand four
square and defy the political trick
sters and corruptionists, we believe
will win in a campaign before the
Democratic voters Of Mississippi In
the primaries of l9l9.-Grecnvllle
Times.
This is one of the most comforting
expressions touching the gubernato-
rial election that has yet come to our
notice, and we nre strongly inclined
% endorse it. Clearly the signs of
the times indicate that the Demo-
cratic masses in Mississippi are
growing weary of the charge that
they are disposed to put a premium
upon crookedness and incompetence.
and it begins to look like they are
longing to swat the next candidate
who seeks 'vindication" by election
to Office because he has been charg-
ed with criminal conduct. 1t will be
4 glorious day indeed when Missis-
sippians determine to honor only
those who need no "Wndication", and
let the martyrs" seek "~vindication"
in the courts.-Madison County Her

Spcctacles were invented in Italy,
about 1885. They were first very
expensive, so were worn only by the
wealthy persons or noblemen and so
came to be regarded as a mark of
rank. The larger tho spectacles the
higher the rank, and so the glasses
grew to a prodigious size. There
are two or three busts extant Of Ital-

Paris has new apartment houses which will be rented

Paris has new apartment houses which will be rented
to no one without children. To rent the smallest suites one
child is required, for the medium sized apartments two
children, while the large apartments at least four children.
The above from one of our great city danles brings some
reassuring news. 1t shows that the war has already wrought
this good result. When Paris begins to put premiums on babies
in the homes of its citizens, it shows that it is turning its face
towards higher and better things and away from the frolcsome
and ephermal things of life. The war will change fashion no
doubt in many sections of the world in this same regard.

A CURE FOR PNEUMONIA
ISSUED BY GOVERNMENT

a remedy for pneumonia has Teen
sent out from the Office Of the sur
geon general of the United States,
at Washington, D. G.. which IS said
by the government authorities to be
an absolute cure
The formula has been sent to all
hospitals. TO military camps and 20
all government officers. Tests are
declared to have proven its eff
cheney.
The instructions have just been
received by United States officials
In this city, and will be Immediately
used in all cases. The remedy is so
simple that all afflicted can use it,
Here is what the government ad-
vises:
"Saturate a ball of cotton as large
as a one-inch marble with spirits Of
alcohol Add three drops of chloro-
form to each ball of cotton. Place K
between the patients teeth. Let
patient inhale the fumes for Is
minutes. then rest Is minutes. or
longer. if needed. Then inhale again
10 minutes and repeat the operation
as directed "a times.
The result will be that the lungs
will expand to their normal condi-
ton. In "a hours the patient Is our
of danger. Change cotton often. II
ought to be changed twice in Is
minutes"
When Col. John c. W. Brooks,
commandment at Carnegie Institute
of Technology, was asked whether
he had seen the above formula, he
said
Yes, 7 received a copy from the
Office OF the United States surgeon
general, and believe it will prove
very effective. 1t will be a wonder
ful thing, in my opinion, and upon
receipt of the formula I immediate
| ly sent it TO all local hospitals. OF
course, we cannot yet say what eff
/ feet it has had here. but I have
| been informed from Washington
| that the authorities there have no
doubt as TO the results to be obtain
G dfrom the treatment"
