Jdst The Thug For Diarrhoea. "About two rears ago I had a severe attack of diarrhoea which lasted over a week,” writes W. C. Jones, Buford, N. D. uI became so'weak that I could not stand upright. A druggist recommended Cham berlain’s Colkv Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The first dose relieved me and within two days I was aawell as ever." Many druggists recommend this remedy because they know that it is reliable. Obtainable everywhere. [testortof y ,___ Not Sqoelen.

Stttes Fond NATURE TELLS YOU As Many a MoclavUIc Reader Know* Too WelL W hen the kidneys are weak. Nature tells you about it The urine is nature’s index. Infrequent or too frequent passage. Other disorders suggest kidney ills. Doan's Kidney Pills are for disordered kidneys. People in this vicinity testify to their worth. A. B. F. Gaither, 316 Trade S t, States- vilie, N. C., says: “I have taken Doan's Kidney Pills off and on for the past two years and have found them to be just the thing to regulate the action of my Iudneys At times my back feels a little weak and I have pains across my loins. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills make me better in everyw ay” Price SOc. at all dealers.. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kid ney Pills—the same that Mr. Gaither uses.

Their long ' ‘prairie schooner” wagons filled with herbs, wild let* luce, sassafras root, slippery elm bark, wild cherry and other pro- ducts of the mountain country, the result of days or weeks of patient toil amid the hills and highlands of the old North State, making their way to the largest and great est herb warehouse in the world at Statesville, is a sight frequently witnessed these days by residents of Iredell County. You city dwellers may not be aware ot the fact, but the war in Europe has had a marked tendency in some lines, to revive the occu pations of our forefathers, at eer tain seasons of the year, that ol gathering herbs, and now this business is practically given up to the mountaineers, although a man in Newton tells me that he has U acres planted in Jimson, or Stram onium, whose leaves are used in the medicine industry for the Ireatmept of asthma and other things. I followed one of these pictures que looking wagons of that type we have so often seen and read about in our histories, when the western side of the American Oon linent was being settled, before the days of railroads. And I fonnd that this mountaineer drew up to a great warehouse-just outside the city limits of Statesville—a build ing old and weatherbeaten, as- sombre as a prison and without a single mark o f. identification to denote its nature. Inside were hundreds and thousands of tons of sacks containing over 200 varieties of herbs and plants and there, .to my astonishment, existed the Iar geB't.bu8ine8S>r5dvJite}-Waad<, in the world, under one roof. As the mountaineer unloaded his queer assortment of wild lettuce slippery-elm bark, wild cherry bark and -other roots and herbs, out on the receiving platform , one could detect the odor of wild cherry from the open doors, within were darkies sacking hundreds & of pounds of dried bark from the wild cherry treeBof North Carolina forests. 'What a wonderful indus try, from the hills and, valleys of the old North State concerning which we know so little , Y et it is the oldest established indnstries in the county, dated away back be fore the war, with medals- and prizes from international exhibit ions for the most remarkable !.col lection of medical plants and herbs aud plants ever gathered in the world’s" history, industrial pur poses. Every known exposition of note has' contributed its medals to the unique instution, which serves even far-off China wiitfa Ginseng root at seven to eight dol lars a pound. I The mountaineer is a n&tnial student of nature and all her mair- velous products. H ^ knows Wheire to dig for flagrooh, where to fihd the wild cherry trees, the root of the sassafras, the leaf of wild let; tuce, and hes more fully aware of the highest m arket valuation per pound of more than IOOsucb herbs' and roots and products of the mountains and valleys than you woulfl possibly imagine. So, when he bad his patches of corn all hoed and the w ork:. done about his mountain home, he' goes ont with his meal sack and ' digs or hunts for thiugs he can sell for so much a pound in }the county seat of Ire- deH Otmuty. And after he gets that gvQ»t long: wagon filled with sacks,' he goes to the county seat, startiug early in the-, morning, for often ie”s a long, long ride oyer roads tl iat automobiles have-yet to travel i pon. > 1 - Wheu vou were I a little boy or girl P^rba1Ps your mother had -yon drink eassitfras tea. - If- she did, then1 yon kV>ow jhit about it, But there’s a hon dred hud- one things a boat this gr» »(teet herb industry in the world that you do not real ize. And North Carolina leads all the States in America in this one business.

He says: - - “ It just raihed—that is the real reason why the water courses got higher by far than they had ever been before—or a t least higher tban-tbey had been since civilized and record-keeping men had lived along their banks. During tbe floods of 1908, when the streams throughout the eastern and the piedmont sections of this State broke all records of high waters by several feet, there was a rainfall of a little over 15 inchesdn three days and up to that time that was a rec ord-breaking rainfall. In the moun tain section there wub a rainfall of over 15 inches in 24 hours, aud be- Bides that for four days there had been heavy rains and the earth was thoroughly soaked and streams high before a drop of that 15 in ehes ot rain fell. Is it any wonder that there was a rise in streams the like of which had been known since Noah’s time? No, If is not because the timber has been cat and ditches had been made that the rivers got bo high. The storm of July 14th and 15th was a freak storm, a tropical Btormt Teaving the coast line and sweeping island and when the warm, moisture-soak ed air from the Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexico struck the cool er air of the lmouhtain region tbe rains let loose—that was all.

In a personal letter to tbe editor of the GrCenBboro Record Mr. B, Dou Laws, editor of tbe Rascal W hipper1 and formerly of the Yel low Jacket, writes about tbe storm aud the terrible destruction in'the section of Moravian Falls.. We copy a part of the letter as follows “ [judge tnat you have read of the awful destruction in Wilkes and other mountain sections. We are almost ruined both for the present and many years to come. I lost practically everything on my farm,, where I had a splendid crop grojwing. and my lands are ruined.' The channel of the Btream through my place is filled with lajrge treesthat came down from the hills tili I never will get tbe way opened again without spend ing almost as mueh as the lands Cost.-1 have never seen nor heard of such torrents Cf water falling before. I was caught out in the downponr Saturdfiy and had to stand and work in the downpour to save my automobile from what I feared would be a landside. I got my oar .out, but worked in a gush of water that ran through the doors. “ My little girl was penned up in the mountains, where one family was destroyed half a mile away. I stood at one plaee and counted sixteen waterspouts on the moun- tains nearby where great breaks in tbe mountain tore loose and went plunging down the slopes.: carry-' ing every thing in their path. The miracle to me is th a t' more people were not destroyed here than were. It was Monday evening before my little girl could reach home, being hemmed in on both sides and gulches that could not be crossed without great danger of life-and limb: -Tbe-^tory- she told of-the awfnl scenes in that mountain hoine I will not forget. “The stories in the papers don’t balf tell the conditions here. I know of people who have always enjoyed plenty who have absolu tely nothing to eat left, and now are packing small packages of pro visions on their backs miles over the glucheB and ruins to the shat tered homes. Houses right up in the very highest grounds .of the mountains were swept away as if they were chaff. Those 40 centi meter German guns could be no more devastation than a water spout. There are now great cracks in the mountains where whole mountain peaks have given way and left marks that will remain hundreds of years. I followed tbe path of one Bpout and found rocks that would weigh fifty tons rolled a mile out from the mountain top where they stayed; But I cannot begin to give a description of the havoc, even if I felt like writing, which I do not. I had to utterly abandon the July issue of my pa per. I went to work right after the flood to try to open a road to Tay lorsville sopor starving population could get food. W6 now have it so wagons can cross the mountains but they must cary small loads.” $109 REWARD. $100.

We regret exceedihgly having failed to see some entertainig arti cle said to have been contributed to the Charlotte Observer some weeks ago by a citizen of that town on. his return from a trip to AVilmington across country in an auto. A Lumberton m anw ho read the articles, two in number, says that the Gharlotte man dis posed himself in great shape and told how. on his trip down, when he got below Lnmberton a piece he heard a ball whiz by his head and knew that some blockader w^b tak ing a shot at him; and on the re turn trip, again just below Lnm- herton, he met a man and a girl and the girl histed her skirtB and took to the tall timber because— wonderful to relate!—she had nev er in all her young life Been an automobile before and did not know what the thing was. This is the story as the Lnmberton man remembers it—that is. the part of it that made the Lumberton man kinder hot under the collar, be cause he did not like for a man from the great city of Charlotte to thus throw off on his dear old ltobeson. But we should worry. For yon knew, beloved, that it hath long since been discovered that of all the green things on this footBtool, the town man—that is, one raised in town and who has lived in town all his iniquitous days—is the most blindly and hopelessly green. Besicfe his greenneBB the greenness of the proverbial “ Hayrube” on Broadway ” is “as moonlight unto, sunlight, and as'Water unto wine:” This Charlotte Paveurb takes a trip through the country and thus communes with himself: “ Go to, now; I will write "a piece for the .paper showing what ta big fellow I was out in the sticks and how I nstonisbed the natives as I merrily sped along.” And he goes and writes a piece that may tickle the groundlings b u t. cannot make the judicious grieve. , Eow this Charlotte person be a very amiable and harmless person in this native town, and may act utmost human, but the next time he takes a ride through the country he ought to refrain from giving niinself away and I letting folks know how green he is- Also he ought to change his brand if it makes him see. things like be im agined he saw in Bobeson. Efforts Beiog Mode to Have Sid ney Allen Pardoned. According to Boanoke papers a petition is being largely signed in Boanoke praying Governor Stuart to grant a pardon to Sidna Allen leader of the Carroll county clans - man, Who is now serving a 30 year sentence in the State penitentiary. It is understood that similar peti tions aie being circulated in other parts of southwest Virginia, and that the one in Boanoke alone has 1100 names already attached to.it Sidna Allen was one of the lead erslin the deplorable tragedy which wiped out the Carroll county court in March, 1912. Jadge Massie, who was presiding at the time was Oneof1Vhe victims. Sidna Allen and. his nephew, Wesley Ed wards made their escape, but were later captured in Des Moines, Iowa and spent the days ot heir incar ceration while awaiting trial in the Boaitoke jail. A marked wave of sympathy« for Sidna Allen has swept over not only this State, but otherB,. be cause of the splendid humanity of his action last winter in contribut ing from his meager savings by overtime work in the penitentiary $15 to go to the starving women and.children of stricken Belgium. This act laid bare a phase of Sidna Allen’s character which had es- caped attention in the general con- lemnation of- the lawless deed of the family, but according to those who know him and his people it is all thoroughly characteristic ol him aud his relatives as in their ready and effective action with the tr.nBty six-shooters.... :. ... . How About An Auditor. Thos C. McDonald, county au ditor, claims that he has saved the county $1700 over and above his Hilary $900. Here is how he says it has been saved. tfTor collecting tax saved $1000 that would other wise have .gone to lawyers, comput iog tax books $300 that would have gone to the Begister of Deeds and $100 to a Connty Commissioner. He claims he has saved $1200 on discoveries over the old way, mak ing a total of $2600 which, when the $900 salary is deducted leaves •a balance of $1900. This being correct we would not call the office UBelesi.—Andrews Sun.

One of the first acts of Woodrow Wilson after becoming President was tb cause the withdrawal of the United States from the' Six-Power Group agreement to which we were a party, for extending aid to China. American bankers, desiring to take part in the $125,000,000 loan to China then proposed, approached Mr. Wilson for assurances of such protection from this government as is accorded to the bankers of Brit- ian, France. Germany, Bussia and Japan. Mr. Wilson turned them down cold, declaring that he disap proved such a loan because of “the obligations it imposed upon the government.” Today the State Department is trying to obtain for subscription by American bankers a loan of several millions to the Chinese Government, the New York bankers are being importuned to extend to Chinathe very aid which Wilson blocked in March 1913. The question now iB. Has the Wilson flap taken place too late in the day? The new Russo- Japanese treaty with respect to China would indicate that it has. Premier Okuma of Japan reminds us that we had our chance, and that we refused to avail ourselves of itr Russia and Japan will attend to the needs of China, and in return will re ceive valuable trade concessions.

Lowry, paid agent of the Federal Sugar Re fining Trust, and the bete noir of the beet sugar industry, butts in with a proposition to 'relieve the ’peepul’ of enerous taxation, and in cidentally to give a bigger refiners’ margin to'the Seaboard sugar re finers. At the rate the Democrats are enacting tax legislation, this keeps Frank pretty busy. He earns his money as a sugar lobbyist, even if his salary and expenses are added to the price of the sugar which the refiners sell to the housewife. The omnibus revenue measure which has just gone to the Senate gives Lowry the cue for proposing a half-cent a pound excise tax on sugar produced in the United States. When the Democrats decided to repeal their free sugar clause because the Un derwood tariff law has proved a failure as a revenue producer, Low ry wanted a.cent a pound consump iion tax on sugar. -Now he is will ing to closeout at 50 cents on the dollar. Of course a tax on sugar produced in the United States would put the beet sugar manufacturers at a disadvantage in the seaboard refiners. The more the beet sugar men are handicapped the firmer the control of the sugar market in the hands of Lowry’s principals. Cer tain Democratic Senators have sev eral times attempted ' to carry Lowry’s plan into execution.

Cheap Gap/Trap to Make Such Charges. The story came out of Washing ton that Senator Simmons had. wise Iy concluded that the .republican party, and chieily Uncle Joe Can non, was responsible for the big floods in the west. It was argued that because the republican party had opposed the bills for conserva tion of the forests, that this was the real reason for the floods and their devasting results. Verj funny. B. Don Laws wrote this paper recently that he stood in his home and Baw a dozen water spouts—cloud bursts on tbe Brushy Mountains. These terribly spouts held millions of gallons of water and when they broke great bould ers weighing many tons rolled down the mountain with such force that they went two and three miles be fore they stopped, AllQverYke country there have been these water epouts. Qne again' In Ashe- Li-;;.-. ^ Y -4 , DoeB. any sane human being im agine that ordinary' conservation of fbrest lands would stop the ter rlble force.of a water spout! Does any honest man really believe that these unprecedented storms could have been checked by forest con servation! We hope not. The truth is that the storms that broke in the western part of the state were unprecedented. It is said that a hundred years ago such floods came. That-was long before the forest had been invaded by the white man with his axe. That was before the mountains had been denued for commercial purposes. When water spouts came—when millions of gallons of water are dashed upon a mountain Bide, no matter bow dense the foliage; no matter bow tickly it is set in trees there is going to be a deluge. And the cheap dad-traps trying to put of this terrible loss on the republican party—a sin of omission makes ub laugh. It- is a joke worth while.—Greensboro Record. ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Thefeare several refoR-ms both in our party and the m anage ment of the; county’s affairs Ib a t should be put in force. I w&uid suggest in the first place so far! as the party is concerned, that the Itwo term policy should be adopted, t« ere by eliminating future dissentW il8 in the ranks. ,As to management! of the county affairs, the offices shljuld be put upon a saisry, say put I the sheriff on salary of $1,800, thi A to include hire for assistant deiluty. Register should receive $1,200; vlerk of court $800, and the treasuE-er’s office should be abolished after I the coming term.' Themoneyhe dand les can be handled by one of I the banks in Moctoville and be a m e a t saving to the taxpayers. .JVe slflould stand for the auditing of the bftoks, (not that anyone believes that Chere is anything crooked in manageiment) but it might be a great savir A- to the county.

Further, we should bo far complete our road system 'As to make it a practical system, alsl> set apart-a sufficient amount f o ! the upkeep of said roads. The Above principles espoused by a stronK-.set of candidates, especially countjlcom- missioners, will carry Dayie cAonty Republicans to a victory of 40(1 ma jority.

Editor Record:—After reading the Davie county road law, on® can easily see why nothing was Baidabouttbe commissionB to. be paid the Treasurer. The compen eation of other employees was eith er fixed or the board of road eom- mlBBionerB were giveu authority to fix the pay except for Attorney and Treasurer. The hand of the drawer of the bill can be seen all through it. The Clerk of the Su perior Ctourt appoints a majority of the road commissioners on the SrBt Monday in December every two. years. Why was the Olerk given this authorityt The Repub lican party has been demanding local self government for years: they want the Board oi Education and the County Superintendent of Schools elected by the people, yet the drawer of this Davie county road law .placed the authority in the hands of bis father as long as he remains Clerk. =The road com missioners have had the spending of IaTge sums of money, and may have the spending of other large sums’, yet one man iu Dayie county is given tbfe responsible authority, and the people who pay the money are denied the right to elect a ma jority of the board who Bpend it. Now let’s see who is responsible for increasing the pay of the Coun ty Treasurer IOO per cent, in the year 1915. Theroad commission ers (I have been reliably informed) thought they bad this authority, bnt it seems the County Commiss ioners took the authority to double Jim ’s pay, and when the question came up before the Road Commiss ioners there was a division, and Mr. A. T. Grant, Jr., attorney for the Road Commissioners, was sent for and the question was put Io him, and I presume everybody in the connty by this time knows what his decision was—it was that the County Commissioners had this authority and not the Road Com missioners, don’t you seelt I am going to ask a question and no one need answer it unless they wish. Who is the County Treasurer’s at torney and legal adviser? The tax payers of Davie county might be interested in knowing who. If I have been correctly informed , at lrost a part of tbe Road .Commiss-; ionen were opposed to paying the present Treasurer 100 per cent, more than, was paid Dir. T. C.- Sheets while he was disbursing the same. Is there any reaBon why Mr. J. L. Sheet’s services are worth twice as much as those of bis predecessor? - He may be com petent to do the work without em ploying an assistant, and thus be able to keep "all of the money him self. Tunderstand a certain man in Moeksville called on Mr. Sheets for ninety dollars, but I have never found out what he did to earn this ninety dollars, nor do I knbw whether be got it. I .,wonder; if the iime has come in Davie county that the wisdom of =one man is greater than the combined wisdom of all the people of this good old county? Has thetim ecom e that one.man, or two or three men Bhali say who shall-hold the offices in this county, and who shall spend the people’s money? Mr. Editor, I have just begun, for there is a lot of unwritten and unprintvd hi's tory to be gotten befpre the people before -the next election. I am not going to be bulldozed or intimida ted by any of the Big Three, or tbeir supporters. I, as one cl the sovereign citizens of this county, who so far has paid bis taxes, have a right to criticise those who spend our money. Davie county is pay ing at least ten thousand dollars too much for repairing the court house. Who is to blame for this extravagance^ I do not say. More later on. • e . H . MORRIS. Moekaville, Aug; 1 8 ,19l6>. (Political Advertisement.) ForTreainrer LH- MORRIS. MY PLATFORM: A M ttfc the Office of CountyTrevturer. I want to correct an error in my statement as to the per cent of com missions paid the Gounty Treasur ers. My informant, WHO WAS ONE OF THE ROAD COMMISS IONERS, told-me that Mr. T. C. Sheets received 2 | per cent and that Mr. J L. Sheek was given 5 per cent. I gave the figures just as he gave them to me, but have since found out.through Mr. B. R. Steel* man, that Mr. T. C. Sheets received one-half of one per cent, and that Mr. J. L. Sheek for the year 1915 received one per cent, just 100 per cent more than was paid Mr. Sheets. I make this correction in justice to both parties. I have never made a misstatement in any of my articles intentionally or knowingly, and gladly correct this. If I had more time I could search the records and verify, but the statement as to Mr. J. L. Sheek having received twice as much commissions as Mr. T- Sheets, stands. Why Mr. J. Sheek should receive $368.48 mo1 than would have been paid Mr. T- C. Sheets, I leave for the bosses to explain to the taxpayers whose mon ey they have wasted, and are con tinuing to waste.. ,I will show in another Article who was responsible for this doubling of commissions.

Take a dose of tlie dangerous drug tonight and tomorrow you may lose a day’s work. Ctuomel is mercury or quicksilver which, causes necrosis of the "bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile crashes into it, breaking it. up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are slug gish and “all knocked cut,” if your liver is torpid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour, just try. a spoonful of harmless Dodson’s Liver lone tonight on my guarantee.' - Here’s my guarantee—Go to any drug store and get a 50 cent bottle of Dod son’s Liver Tone. Xake a spoonful and if it doesn’t straighten you right up and make you fed fine and vigorous I want you to go back to the store and get your money. Dodson’s Liver Tone is destroying tlie sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; entirely vege table, therefore it can net> salivate or make you sick. I guarantee that one spoonful of Dod son’s Liver Tone will put your Bluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and constipated waste which is clogging your system and mak ing you feel miserable. I guarantee that a oottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone will keep rour entire family feeling fine for months. Give it to'your children. It-is harmless; doesn’t gripe and they like its pleasant taste.

It was the first time that such an alliance has ever been recorded in that city and so far as known Lee is the on ly iaan of this nationality residing there.

W ithin the last ten days two ne groes have been electrocuted at Baleigb, each one paying the pen alty for murder. IThere wasn’t much adoo over it—they were quietly electrocuted and a brief news item Bent out concerning their pshsing. This was all right. But when the white man shoote up a negro, when a mob forms and does murder, we don’t make much noise about getting the murderers and electrocuting them. The great talk about that Greene county mob has all passed away. One lone man is being -held for trial, and when his case came up it was con tinued.

For the past 22 years Mooreeville pen and women have devoted jjjuch time and energy to hold a big picnic wiih which to raise funds (0r the BariumSprings orphanage. At the outset tor many years each family or person contributing a basketful of dinner is given a free dinner ticket. So long as the peo ple gave ireely to their supplies to make the dinner a. success, the management made some nioney out 0f the dinner alone. The god of e v i l has gotten into some folks, however, and for the paBt few years it has been unusual for Bomeone to call upon the dinner collectors for dinner tickets and hand them in exchange a small box of sand witcheB, and on one occjsion two loaves of bread. The Enterprise is not making any kick for the management, but when people swindle tbe orphans inBUch a man ner it is somebody’s duty to call a halt, Of course a small box of dinner is oppreciated,- but when some one passes into a dinner table tilled with the goodieB of the land in exchange for a stationery box full of something or nothing, it is galling to those who are trying to make money for the cause. The picnic will be continued from year to year, so long as it can be oper ated at a small profit, but when the ewindlers get hold of .it. then it is lime to take notice. Mr. Cleveland’s Method.

Tbe divine who. enjoyed a joke, politely passed the pickles, and,in a few seconds had the satisfaction of seeing the stranger watering at the eyes and gaBping for breath. “ I see by ” your dress,” said the man, when he had recovered, “ that, you are a parson.” “ I am sir.” ■■... “ I suppose you preach.” “Yes; about twice a week, nsual.

Iu other words, despite the great world war, the world has this year taken more American cotton than ever before in the history. While we produced last year, including !inters, only a little more.tban 12,- 000,000 bales, consumption am ounted to nearly 15,000.000. On top of this, the latest esti mate of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture indicates'a crop this year between 13 000,000 and 14.000,000 bales, and unques tionably crop conditions have be come worse rather than better since the government report was i&Bued. The situation ip a nutshell, then, is that next year the world is gc- ing to demand more American cot ton than will be produced. It takes no financier, or economist to see Wbat this means: prices are bound to be high, A.t the same time the cotton growers of the South must not for get the “ autumnal din in the cot ton, market” described in the Pro gressive Farmer last year—must not forget that-the heavy volume of “ distress cotton” thrown on the market in September, October and November has almost without fail forced the market down every year, the average time of this de pressionp coming during the first half of November. Now we would hardly advise holding cotton when the price is 14 to 15 cents, or seed at $45 or $50 a ton; but the mom eiit prices begin to break every farmer ought to hold his cotton off them arket until ^prices rise again, as they WiU surely do.

Lobbying in Raleigh a- gainst abolishing the office of county treasurer is going to cost the tax payers of Davie county between two and three thousand dollars ■ .If the taxpayers of Davie county are anx ious to be highly taxed for the bene fit of the office-holders, they have a chance to continue'the good WOik on Tuesday after the first Monday in November. The people in Davie county may not have sense enough to know for whom to vote, at least one would think so. from the great activity being displayed by the “ Big Three;” there must be some office besides the county offices at stake. We have heard some things we will not meqtion at this time. f Fork News. Rev. E. Myero closee a successful- revi val at Fulton M.

The attitnde of the W est toward Ifr.-Hnghes is pretty well examp led in the comments made, in Chic: ago following the visit of the Re publican candidate to that city. Mr. C. B Evans is the Chicago representative of the Philadelphia PublioLedger and his daily letter to that newspaper , has' beenchar- aotenzed by a consistent conserva tism of expredBion .in treating of the chief news events of the West. In his article of yesterday, he said: One hears / today more opinion and - speculation as to what his country will have to meet after the Europokn war than at any former time, /and many commentators have an affrighed appearance. ThiB is not the product of an alarmist propaganda. M rJ Hnghes has not tried to scare, anybody, but has merely por trayed the errohiv'O f the. present Administrationahd set forth cer tain principles on which the affaire of the oonntry shonld be managed in the future. ; There is a political logic in this portrayal, theculmiDaticn of which in the mind of the voter is express ed by the frequent remark: “ He is the kind of man we want to steer us through.” This turn been said by many a business man today. The qualities seen In Mr. Hngbes are poise, a strong, sane mind, sincerity, and a willingness to sacrifice life, physi cal or political, to the good of the country. Hor is there any ques tion as to the quality of nerve to meet the emergehcies of the four years beginning March 4,1917. This Ib the sort of an impression Mr: • Hughes, the candidate, is making. This is the 6ort of an im preision that he was expected to make and the turning of these im pressions into convictions and those convictions into votes spells the de feat of Mr. VVilson.—Washington!, D.
