Napoleon Regarded I'M"
As Fatal Letter of His Life

Napoleon -BOnaparte thought that
the letter NJ was his fata l letter.
An examination of history shows
what a peculiar part the letter play
ed in his life. Six of his marshals
were: NIassena, Mortier, Marmount
Macdonald, Murat and Money. Mar
boeuf was the first great French
man to recognize his genius. Malet
conspired against him. Moreau be-
trayed him. Moscow was the last
town he captured Maret was his
secretary. Montalivet was his minis
ter, and Montesquin his chamberlain.
He married Marie Louise. His son
was born in March.
Some Of his most brilliant battles
were at Montenette. Mantua, Millesi-
mo. Mondoi, Mareng0, Malta, Mont
Thabor Mont Mirvil. Mormans,
Montereau. Merry, Montmarte, and
the final assault at Mont st. Jean at
Waterloo.
At st. Helena Napoleon was exiled
with Montholon as his companion
and Marchand as his valet. He died
in MAY, 1921.

Paris Cafe Walters
Stirred to Protest
By Mustache Order

PARIS, Oct. 9.--(By the Associated
Press -Waiters in seven or eight
of the largest cafes on the Paris
boulevards have been stirred to angry
protests by orders to shave their
mustaches or quit.
One of the bitterest grievances the
walters had when they went on
strike last April was the edict OF
the employers to the effect that wait
ers must sacrifice their mustaches.
The walters triumphed and the en-
ployers agreed they should be per-
mitted to adorn their visages as they
pleased. Now an attempt to revive
the ban on mustaches has reused
their Indignation.
THE walters are sufficiently hu-
inflated to have to earn their living
by extending their hands to receive
what often proves to be ridiculous
tip, without being forced to forego
one of the privileges of manhood
said the secretary OF the union.

Takes Whole Still to
Make Whisky, Rules
State Appellate Court

That the pot of a Gistillery and
two barrels of ''mobby," which is
another name for mash" do not in
themselves constitute a complete
apparatus for the manufacture OF
whisky, and that possession of the
same is not a violation of the
Georgia prohibition law, was the
decision rendered Tuesday by the
court of appeals in the case of
Davis versus the state from Glas-
cock superior court.
Officers of the law raided Davis
premises and found the pot of a
distillery and two barrels of mob
by" but they did not find the cap
of the pot, nor the worm, nor the
condenser. Davis was convicted I'M
DER the Georgia prohibition law of
having in his possession appara tus
for the man fracture of whisky
which is a felony. His attorney APP
pealed on the ground that the pot
and the "mobby" did not constitute a
conn ,ete outfit.
In very interesting decision,
written by Judge Roscoe Luke. and
concurrcd in by the other Judges,
the court of appeals upholds this
contention.

at Goshen to await action of the
Grand Jury which is expected to in

by his father, who deposited 5000

again in order that his father might
have the $500, which he greatly
needed. His request was complied

ADVOCATES OF ANARCHY, SAB
OTAGf, REVOLUTION MUST GO
VIII Be Deported, Says Secretary of
Labor Wilson--Those Naturalized
Will Have Citizenship Revoked.

Aliens found advocating destruc-
ton of property or overthrow of the
government by force will be deported
under the provisions of the immigra-
ton act of February 5, 1917. This
announcement was made Tuesday by
Secretary of Labor Wilson in a letter
sharply rebuking Micrometer lodge
400, Association of Machinists of
Brooklyn, for protesting against the
deportation of So "alien radicals"
The secretary denied that the aliens
were being deported without due pro-
cess of law and asserted that they had
fair trials.
Mr.. Wilson reiterated his previously
announced decision that no person
would be arrested simply for joining
the I. w. W., but that any alien ad-
vocating sabotage or anarchy would
be deported, and said:
"Those who swore allegiance to
this government will have their citi-
zenship revoked on the ground that
they swore falsely or violated their
oath in advocating the overthrow of
the government.
at is my intention, as secretary of
labor, now that the unusual danger of
sea travel is over, to carry out the
clear provisions of the law; first, be-
cause it is my sworn duty to do so,
and second, because any foreigner who
comes to this country and advocates
the overthrow of our form of govern
ment by force is an invading enemy,
who is treated with great leniency
when he is simply deported to the land
from which he came.
"When our own citizens desire to
change the form of government they
can do so peaceably in the manner
provided by the constitution. five

able process of discussing and voting

UNITED STATES IS ALL RIGHT
PROSPERITY LIES JUST AHEAD
Secretary of the Treasury Glass Gives
His Reasons Why No approximations
Should be Felt About the Future

The following statement from the
head of the treasury department was
handed to the press of the country
last Monday:
"a thing difficult of understanding
is the reactionary spirit which, insome
quarters, seems to have seized hold of
American business. 1t manifests it.
self in a gloomy and pessimistic view
of the future in no way justified by
conditions present or discernible, and
in disposition to cavil at the further
expenditures the government is under
the necessity of making in order to
liquidate the war.
Instead of days of dark foreboding,
these should be days of rejoicing, of
confidence and of high resolve. Amer
lea is least injured of any of the ma
tons which took active part in the
death grapple with autocracy on the
soil of France and Flanders. Our
fields have not been devastated, our
homes and factories have not been
RACED, famine does not stalk among
u.s. In all material things the nation
is richer and stronger than it was
before we went to war.
Is the American spirit less cour-
ageous than is the spirit of the French
or of the Belgians? France, sorrow
ing, but undaunted, has set about to
repair the wreck the ruthless invader
wrought, and refuses to view the flu
,, ture darkly. Belgium, stripped of all
save honor, looks forward to the day
, when a greater nation will arise on
the ruins of the old. Shall America,
then, bend and groan under the mag
inings of a burden which it should
bear lightly, if felt at all?
Sight never should be lost of the
fact that Americas war debt is sub
stantially all owed to the American
people. Money to meet the interest
charges on it and eventually to pay
off the principal will flow back to the
sources whence it came. A national
debt of this character is not a burden
to cripple future business.
1t should be kept in mind, also, that
the issues of Liberty bonds were paid
for, or are being paid for almost en-
tirely by the current savings of the
people. There was no impairment of
the capital which had accumulated
from the savings of former years.
More capital is available today for the
financing of legitimate business than
ever before in the history of the ma
ton. Moreover, it must be remem-
bered for at least two years prior to
the entrance of this country into war
American business enjoyed unpre-
cedented prosperity, with enormous
profits, untaxed beyond the normal
levies.
In affecting the savings by means
of which they bought Liberty bonds,

the American people learned the les
sons of thrift, the benefits of which
will be felt by our children and our
children's children. The billion-dollar
indemnity which Bismark levied in
the belief that it would keep France
PROSTATE, rejuvinated France and en-
abled her to become the chief stumb-
ling block to Germany's dream of
world domination. So Americas war
debt, if rightly viewed and rightly
handled, should make for the content
ment and prosperity of our people.
To see in it an obstacle to business
progress is to see ghosts and hobgob-
Inns and other things which have no
existence outside of realms of fancy.
