rests made in 1918, and that the fines
and costs amounted to S2O,6SS.45.
For December there were 1876 arrests,
an average of six per day, and the
fines and costs amounted to $3,267.-

the Senator, we hope he will defer
action on his bill until local condi-

he will agree with us that we have no
need of the disgraceful, repulsive and
inhuman hangman's moose and the
revolving scenes that are associated

WHY THEY FAIL

Eightyfour per cent of the busi-
ness failures of the past year occur
red among firms which fails to adver-
tise. This is the assertion made by
the Bradstreet Commercial Agency,
which is as unbiased an authority
as can be found in the business world
today. Bradstreet compiled this in
formation from statistics-not guess
work. This information is certainly
worthy of deep consideration by all
business and professional men in all
sizes of towns The Importance of
advertising as business element
must have been regarded as vital by
this great commercial agency else
it would not have wasted the time of
hundreds of trained men throughout
the nation in tabulating this infor-
nation.

In order to get the full force OF
these words, which seem to glow
with an inward fire, it is necessary
to remember that they were not
penned by healthy essayist in a
comfortable library, but by young
ster on cot in the ward of a hos
pital, beardless lad, perhaps. whose
arms or legs had been shot away, or
whose eyes had been put out by a
bursting shrapnel-by boy, for all
we know, like the one whom Presi-
dent Wilson stopped to talk with in a
hospital in France. Do you remem-
ber? His face had been shot away
so completely that not feature was
left but the eyes, and the surgeons
had to build him countenence by
cutting out some of his own fish and
bones and substituting the teeth of
another wounded soldier who had
just gone west" How it makes one
loathe the very name of war!
These words just quoted, we were
saying, may have been written by
such a man. for that one, they as
sure us, was brave and cheerful,
ready to take up life again and live
it nobly.
"Please don't coddle me! I would
rather be man earning my living by
hard knocks than pampered baby
in the household of King!"
But the men are right! We must
find them work, but not perform it
for them. We may tighten their bur-
dens, but not remove them from their
We must honor, but not
pity. and thus weaken them.
We talk about the wonderfulness
of that courage which enabled them
to face the gas waves and the bomb
explosions and the tank charges of
the battlefield, but it is the merest
nothing as compared with the cour-
age of cheerfully facing ten or twen-
ty or even fifty years of a crippled

COTTON AND S2.OO WHEAT

COTTON AND $500 WHEAT
In discussing the probable outlook
few days ago, the Memphis Com
mercial Appeal said editorially:
eve are at the beginning Of anoth-
er cotton season. The government
guaranteed the price of wheat. An
enormous crop will be raised and the
government has to pay for the sur
plus.
Wheat and corn will both be
high during the coming year. The
government has not guaranteed the
price of cotton. The coming crop of
cotton has to stand on it's own natur-
al position. The price will be regu-
lated by the law of supply and de-
mand. We will dispose of this years
crop at high figures, but, even so, the
cost of producing it was high
THE cost of producing the next
crop Of cotton will be high. Food
will be high. If we plant an enor-
nous crop of cotton and the law of
supply 9ad demand forces it to 10
cents pound, and we grow that cot
ton on 50 wheat and 30-cent bacon
and sell it for 10 cents a pound, we
will be broke. Therefore, let us
grow a reasonable acreage of cotton
this year. Then let us grow our own
hogs, our own corn, our own pota-
toes and our own hay, and no matter
what the cotton fetches this fall we
shall not be greatly in debt for sup
plies

THE WORLDS NEW SHRINES

| q
cemetery in Brussels of the grave OF
Edith Cavell. the English nurse who
was murdered by the Germans, and
of the memorial service held at its
side by English compatriots, sug-
gests reflection upon the number and
character of the new shrines which
have been furnished the world by
this hedious war.
The impulse to visit spots where
the ashes of the heroic dead lie
buried, or places where heroic ac-
tions have been performed, seems
almost universal. 1t is composed of
diverse feelings, all Of them credit
able to our human nature. By an
irresistible instinct we long to pour
it finds its easiest vent in the places
where they were born or lived or
died. We come little closer to them
there. They seem to us more real
And, in addition, we either do, or
think we do, imbibe their virtues by
this closer contact with them. At
any rate, we feel a certain exhalta-
ton, which is not always evanescent
and we have no instrument delicate
and powerful enough to measure the
influence Of these sacred places upon
the characters of individuals and
nations. 1t was of the grave of
Robert Burns that Fitz Greene Hal
leck said so finely:
such graves as his are pilgram
shrines-
Shrines to no code or creed confined;
The Delphian wales. the Palestines
The Meccas of the mind"
III could we afford to lose the in
tuence here in America of shrines
like the grave of Washington, at Mt
Vernon; Of Lincoln at Springfield, or
Of Bunker Hill and Plymouth Rock
And, now, to the vast number of
such sacred places in the older world
across the ocean are to be added
those of the recent war-the graves
of Edith Cavell, of Rupert Brooks, of
Joyce Kilmer, of Archie Roosevelt,
of Gynemere, of the unnamed and
dead of Liege, Ypres,
Verdun, Chateau Thierry. the banks
of the Marne and of the Piave, the
bloody slopes of Gallipoli. What
moving associations will cluster
about them! What lofty inspirations
will be kindled by them! In their
presence patriotism will blaze up
from dying Goals; unselish love will
be reborn; imperishable ideals will
be created. No sooner will the routes
of travel be opened to the public than
the feet Of countless pilgrims will be |
turned in their direction. Paths will |
be beaten to green mounds in OBJ
scure places; venerable men and |
women, will deck them with flowers, |
bedew them with tears and turn away |
Horrible as many of the influences |
Of this war have proved, it has pro-
duced results of immeasurable value .

STEPPING BACKWARD


We see in the st. Louis Glob
Democrat that a Southeast Missouri
Senator has prepared a bill for in
PRODUCTION in the State Legislature
to reinstate capital punishment
The capital punishment law was re
realed by act of the Legislature only
two years ago. and the time has beer
entirely too short in which to tes
out the virtue of the life imprison,
ment law that took it's place. On the
other hand, during the past two
years murder has not increased in
this state, and there have been nc
very henious crimes, any more SC
| than before.
In other states where capital pun
ishment has been abolished there
seems to have been no tendency to
re-enact it, but on the other hand,
those states seem to be fairly well
satisfied and point with pride to the
fact that that they have abolished
this revolving punishment.
We do not know what has induced
the Senator to prepare such a measure
for introduction, but certain it is in
doing so he is not carving out the
wishes of a majority of the people in
the State of Missouri From what
the Globe Democrat saws, and that
paper seems to have interviewed him.
he is basing his views on what few
Circuit Judges and Prosecuting At
torneys say. which is not fair repre-
sentatiOn of the people, and, as we
said, the old law was repealed en-
tirely too recently to give the life
imprisonment law fair trial

than the ones mentioned Leading the

he has arrived. and thev NAV be the
