that OF course the officers had more
exact and comprehensive information;
but in a general way the men knew the
same thing, and for all practical pur-
poses their information was no less &C.
curate.
But the feeling among the men Of
the Thirtieth was they must take thos,
lines or die. They preferred 10 take
the lines rather than die; but they
would rather have died than not take
the lines.
They were not concerned SO much
about the reputation Of the officers as
they were about their own reputation
and peace Of mind afterward; for they
did not mean to have it said that the
Germans had ever seen their backs
before the Hindenburg line or any
where else.
When General Bullard or whoever it
was, refused to obey the orCer Of the
French general to retreat at Chateau
Thierry, because his men would not
understand such procedure" he
knew exactly what he was talking
about. 1t may have been his own SEN
timents, and no doubt was; but he
knew full we'll that If he had ordered
those men to retreat, he need never
again expect their confidence or re-
spect.
He was speaking as the mouthpiece,
not as the commander of his men
when he said, I'VE did not come here
to retreat; we are going forward"
Yes, it may be that If the men had
not been so impetuous they would not
have been killed up so badly. We do
not doubt that; but also we are most
decidedly Of the conviction that If the
Americans had been less impetuous the
Germans would not have been SO
quickly convinced as to what they
were up against, and the war would
be going on yet.
We believe that the few tens Of thou
sands who died in those first impetu-
Gus rushes saved probably hundreds of
thousands who would have died later.
And we believe the American SOL
diers-the rank and file-did it.
All honor to the Thirtieth Division.

Now that Theodore Roosevelt Is
dead, 1t is perfectly admissible to say
that he was a remarkable man, one OF
the greatest his generation has seen.
He was intensely American, a man of
keen intelligence, large patriotism,
self confident and fearless. 1t was his
to serve third term as pres
ident that smashed the Republican
party and resulted in the election OF
Wilson, no doubt, and had he lived in
fairly good health he would have no
doubt figured quite extensively in the
next campaign.

It looks now that the time will soon
be here when the man who is obliged
to have alcoholic liquor for beverage
purposes will have to go to England,
France, Germany or Mexico for it. In
view Of conditions as they once pre-
vailed in this country, conditions still
fresh in the recollections Of even the
young men and young women of the
present generation, there Is reason to
hope that Mexico and the different Eu-
ropean governments will also some OF
these days advance to stage Of civili-
cation that will enable them to abolish
liquor.

In a postscript to a business letter.
Solicitor ]. K. Henry says: THAT was
a delightful letter that you printed
from Major John w. Mcconnell" So
licitor Henry has no doubt voiced the
common verdict. The letter was not
only admirably written; but it dealt
with things about which the public
wants to know.
Columbia, 1t seems, wants to appro-
pirate the idea recently suggested by
Superintendent of Education John E.
Carroll of York county, for O building
in which to keep the records of South
Carolina soldiers in the war. Instead,
however, Of making it a Richland
county building, 1t is proposed to make
1t a state building to be erected by the
counties.

All the testimony of all the witnesses
has been that absolutely the greatest
thing that has manifested itself in the
war has been the spirit Of self-repres-
sion and desire to be helpful to others.
This is probably the greatest thing
that could come out Of anything,
and If there is ever an end to war and
strife this same spirit will be the thing
that will contribute to that end.

one billion dollars in fighting prohibi-

temper of the people of the United

money to save liquor than was neces-
sary to defeat Germany. The world
now understands pretty well that as
between Germany and liquor, liquor
was the greater menace to civilization
than Germany.
