REFUSES REWARD FOR
2S NEGRO DESERTERS
Sheriff Monroe of Crittenden
County Breaks Two Rec
ords for Camp Pike

Camp Pike, Sept. 10.-Pa-
triotic work which sheriffs and
other officers should follow has
been started by Ed Monroe,
sheriff of Grittenden county.
Sheriff Monroe with % ne
gro slackers. deserters and de-
linquents arrived at Camp Pike
Monday afternoon and turned
the negroes over to the officers
in the receiving depot.
The delivering of 28 new
additions to Uncle Sans fight
ing forces is only a part of
Sheriff Mcnroe's accomplish
ments. Several days ago he
called a meeting of the citizens
and planters of Crittenden
county and secured their aid in
sweeping dragnet over the
county to apprehend negroes
who were eligible for entrance
into the army. Seventy-four
slackers, deserters, and delin-
quents were shared in the big
sweep. The remainder will be
brought to Camp Pike some
time this week.
Sheriff Monroe claimed no
rewards on the arrests of the
draft resisters, declaring he
was taking this method in
doing his part toward the Win
ming of the war.
A big sum of money has been
paid out by the government
for the apprehension of draft
resisters, deserters, slackers and
delinquents, all of which could
have been saved had the other
sheriffs acted as did the Crit
tenden county sheriff.
Besides saving the govern
men $50 per man Sheriff Men
roe has established a record of
delivering the largest number
Of men to Camp Pike since the
cantonment's existence.

The boys are all anxious to
land and get down to real
work. However, we don't know
what's before us. Can only
hope everything good and [
really believe it is. We were
up this morning before day
light and saw the sunrise on
the ocean. 1t was beautiful
but the beauty was lessened
by the lights of loved ones far
away. Nevertheless it helps to
know there is someone back
home thinking and praying for
our return. If it were not for
these things life would be of
no value to some of us. But a
dear sweet little mother like |
have would encourage a boy to
try anything that's for her hap
piness and safety.
Will write you Just as soon
as | land, so it will come back
on the first boat. Will write
you twice-a-week if possible
and you write me real often.
Think of me for you all are
my momentary thoughts and
best of wishes are my mine for
all. Tell everybody to write
me. Wish | could tell y6u
some things | know but can't.
However, Pm safe and dandy
so don't worry.
Love to all, oceans for your
self, each wave a kiss and each
fish good wish. As ever,

cotton ever sold in Newark

cents per pound, and brought

GERMANY WATCHING
AMERICA PREPARE
Kaiser's People MisIed in Past,
Now Hoping Fourth Liber-
ty Loan Will Fail

Dispatches from Germany
by way of London report
that the German government
is preparing to launch a wal
loan at about the same time the
American Fourth Liberty Loan
will open September %. There
is much uneasiness in German
financial circles over the finan-
cial situation of the Central
powers and tremendous efforts
will be made to make the Ger
man loan a success in order to
improve conditions there.
Neutral observers say that
the German government is anx-
iously watching the prepare
tons for our Fourth loan and
that Hun officials are predict
ing its failure. Reports from
this country of hot winds and
drouth have led the Huns to
believe that the very heart Of
America, the great Middle
West, is discouraged over the
war situation and crop condi-
tons. Berlin believes that the
Southwest is in the same condi-
ton.
However, Germany has often
been misled by the reports re-
ceived from this country. Ber-
lin, the Kaiser and the whole
imperial group are about to
suffer another sickening disap-
pointment. When the news
that America has again over
subscribed the Fourth Liberty
Loan reaches Berlin the mill
tary autocrats will have to
think out some other excuse tG
offer.
That American money will
not back up American men is

every young American to show
how much love he has for his

friends. I'm anxious to go do
my bit for the paradise of the

and trust and pray it will all
be over soon, and then we boys
will come back to our loved

body and especially the family.

CAPTURES DESERTER

George Witt left Tuesday
morning for Camp Pike at
Little Rock with Walter Arms,
a young white man of Cord
who had deserted from the mil
itary service at Fort Logan II.
Roots about eight months ago.
Young Arms who is % years

the Newport recruiting station

serted and came home. He was
captured about two or three
weeks afterward at his home
neal Cord and sent to Fort
Roots at Little Rock where he
was sentenced to a term in the

sentence in the guard house he
was given a pass to Little Rock

THE GERMANS SOUEAL

A Newark physician now in
the war zone in France writes
home that the Germans are
squealing like cowardly hogs
because the Allies are making
air raids on German towns and
cities. A giant airplane,
known as the Handley-Page
bombing plane, made in Am
erica, is being used for this
purpose. The operation of
these giant airplanes in action
and how they are put through
a rigid trial test in the air, will
be feature of the war news
at the Skydome Saturday
night. Admission 10c and zoe.

the hope to which the Huns
are clinging. All reports agree
that American fighting men
have shaken German conf
dence. When the American
Marines broke up the Huns
rush against Paris at Chateau
-Thierry there was consterna-
ton in the German High Com
mand. The fame us Prussian
Guard regiments were sent to
clean out the Americans but
were stopped, smashed and
driven back in such a state of
decentralization that they had
to be removed from the line.
No longer able to claim that
Americans cannot reach
France or that they are DC or
fighters the German is falling
back on the claim that America
cannot raise the money to sup
port the great armies that have
crossed the Atlantic and that
are being raised and trained in
this country. The Germans
have always liked to think that
yankees" are <dollar crazy,
that "Amerikaner' is a dollar
worshipper and that he thinks
more of his dc liar than he does
of American national honor
The Potsdam gang is now US
ing this old claim in order to
create confidence and bolster
up its dying hopes.
Washington officials point
out that the Germans fully be-
lieved this country would not
enter the war that the Germ
an vote is this country would
paralyze America, that the
United States was afraid of the
German strength and that the
U-boats could sink our ships,
drown our women and children
and spies could blow up NUM-
ton plants and factories indefi-
nitely. Events show that the
Germans were mistaken.
The fourth Liberty Loan is
certain to smash down their
latest claims that Americans
will not back their armies and
their government with their
money.

Increased their output zy $4,000 tons

fields yielded about 100000 tons more
than the previous year In the Gard
fields the increase exceeds 80 per

Tarn, Scone ct loire, are also help
ing with the increase in the general
output, which enables us to conclude,
judging by figures for the last four

CONGRATULATIONS.
ON the Albany Herald.

From the Albany Herald.
The Americas TimesRecorder says:
1--WE are still waiting for Albany to
congratulate us on securing the avia-
ton camp"
Well, Albany does. We cannot i'm
Ggine that there is anybody in Albany
who would dream of hesitating for a
moment to sincerely congratulate
Americas on any piece of good fortune
or stroke of enterprise We are sure
that if Albany folks had dreamed
Americas was specially waiting for
their formal congratulations the mat
ter would have been attended to
promptly. We hasten to ASSURE our
heighbor that Albany's offense has
been altogether unintentional If the
dbLAOuuCCIlcuL Ludt VIC nf1dClOu Cd4up
was going to Americas had been
marked P. S. C. please Send Con-
gratulations) proper action would
have been promptly taken. We dc
not recall that Americas ever con-
graduated Albany on anything-not
even on being a neighbor to as de-
lightful city as the capital of Sum-
ter.
Albany does congratulate Americas
on everything good that happens to
our thriving neighbor. We say that
seriously, earnestly, honestly. We
hope the paragraph which we quote
from our always appreciated contem-
porary does not mean what one dis
posed to be captious might suspect,
viz, that Albany's failure in con-
gratulations was an intentional over
sight induced by envy. It was not.
Albany has never had occasion to be
envious of her neighbor. We wish
her all good luck, even to the extent
of hoping that some day she will be
as good town as Albany That's the
very best wish we have in our wish
cry.
