SOLDIERS' WELCOME.
ik
The 113 th Artillery was accorded
a welcome in Raleigh Monday that
surpassed any demonstration ever
witnessed at ths State capital. It
was worthy of the State and the oc
casion. A multitude, estimated at
200,000, gathered from surrounding
counties and all parts of the State,
was there to extend a home-coming
welcome to the boy* who had done
battle for thoir country. The 113 th
was composed almost exclusively of
North Carolinians and was com
manded by a North Carolinian, Col.
Cox, hence it was fitting that honor
should be accorded them by North
Carolina especially.
The soldiers are coming back to
the home shores almost as fast as
they went over last year. The war
is over and the soldier wants to go
to work again. It should be the
aim of every employer to furnish as
many of them jobs as possible. They
went forth to fight and risk every
thing for their country. Now, that
they are returning to the peaceful
pursuits of life, every possible effort
should be made to find them places
in which to earn a competent liveli
hood, The beet is none too good for
1 them.
Governor Dickett has named the
State Highway Commission. The
board is composed of the following:
Lieut. Frank Pago of Aberdeen, just
returned from oversea* service, is
named as chairman and term is six
years and full time. J. E. Cameron
of Kinston is namod as the minority
party representative and for four
years. Tbo other two members are
James K. Norlleetof Winston-Salem
and James G. Stikeleather of Ashe
-ville, each for two years.
Every day or so the suggestion is
made that some air navigator will
undertake to fly across the Atlantic.
Somo American officers flew C>(>4
miles in 300 minutes. At this speed
the task could be accomplished in
15 hours—and somebody is going '
to do it. ,
A story comes by w ay of Canada !
that during the post winter half the !
population of northern Labrador
died from influenza. Entire com- I
munition were swept away by the

Bolshevism is sweeping over Eu

The World's Ideal
John Latane, in The World's
Work.
This war lim witnessed a rebirth
of democracy A democratic as- 1
sooiation of democratic nations Is
the Ideal the world is striving to
attain, and of this ideal President
Wilson is the chief exponent. In
one of his Fourth of Jnly ad
dresses he Bald:
"If 1 did not believe that the
moral judgment would be the Inst
judgment, the final judgment, iu
the niind»of men as well as at the
tribunal of God I could uot believe
in popular government. But Ido
believe these things, and, there
fore, I earnestly believe iu the
democracy not only of America
but of every awakened people that
wishes and intends to govern and
control its own affairs."
In this faith he went to Paris to
bind the nations together in de
mocracy and peace.
"Conditions at Brest are im
proving"—and there is a better
tone in the Evening Telegram
.headlines.
MINORITY LEADERSHIP.
Champ Clark Opposed far Place.
Washington, March 25.—Some
of the most influential Democrats
in the country are interesting
themselves in the fight to prevent
the election of -Champ Clark as
minority leader of the next House, 1
and io substitute a leader known
to be in sympathy with" the Presi
dent and in accoid with his princi
ples. Within the last week letters
have been received from a dozen .
national committeemen bespeak- |
ing thorough approval of the in
surgent program and declaring
the selection of Mr. Clark would (
bring party disaster and defeat.
Although the movement sprang
spontaneously from the progres
sive Democrats in Congress, there
is evidence to indicate that several
members of President Wilson's i
cabinet are likewise iu complete ]
sympathy with it and would wel- |
come a new leader in the House as (
a contribution to party harmony. ,
Impetus was given the cause by i
Representative Asbury F. Lever's i
statement. Mr. Lever is one of I
the veterans of Congress, having
represented South Carolina for l'J
years. He withdrew from the j
Senatorial race last year at Presi- ;
dent Wilson's request, in order to
handle the Administration's food 1
control and conservation program
in the House. He is perhaps best
known as the sponsor of the sev- '
eral food bills enacted by the War-
Congress, and the author of the
wheat-guarantee bill, keeping the
price at $2.20 for the current
year.
"I will support no man who will
say that a conscript is synonymous
with a convict," Mr. Lever said.
"I regard it as of the utmost
importance to the future success
of the Democratic party that the
minority leadership in the next
Congress shall be strong, aggres
sive and in the fullest sympathy,
not an enforced sympathy, with
the plans and purposes of the
President of the United States,
who for six years has been the
elected spokesman and leader of
his party. The leadership ol the
minority in the nejt Congress
should have no axes to grind and
no personal ambitions to serve. It'
should be such a leadership as can
freely and without hesitation con
fer with the aclnal leader of the
party on matters of uational and
party policies. Without such
harmonious relationship the situa
tion for 1920 is impossible; with
It, the future of the party could
not be more hopeful, for it is my
firm belief that the overwhelming
majority of the people of the
country are in line with the Presi
dent in his wonderful fight to
minimize to the very limit the
possibility of wars in tho future.
"The million, three hundred
thousand soldiers who have gone
through tho brutal murder of this
war, returning to this country are
as certain to give their support to I
the idea of a League of Nations as
it is certain that the sun will rise
tomorrow moruing, aud no man.
cat! be selected to lead the Demo
crats in tho next House who does '
not In full measure believe iu this
doctrine. To sefect a man' for
leader who does not believe in il
would be suicide, nnU it is tin be
lief that when the Democrats o.
the couutry realize what the real
situation is, they will demand, in
terms which cannot be misunder
stood, such a leadership as will
give the President and his policies
the fullest support.
"Democrats caunot allow per
sonal relationships or sympathy
to stand iu the way of party sue-1
cess, and they are not going to I
do it."

RECUhD OF 1131RE6IENT
High- Spot* in History Made In Brlof
Period by Now World Famous
Body of Southern Troop*.
Known aa "storm" troop* and
"shock" troops, the North Carolina
youth* of the 113 th field artillery,
commanded by Colonel Albe'rt L. Cox,
of Raleigh, won all distinction now ac
corded them.
This regiment came back to Amer
ica with a record unsurpassed by
any unit of the American artillery
forces In the world war, having done
its share to make the world "aufe tor
democracy."
What they really have seen anil ex
perienced is summarized by Colonel
Cox in bis statement In greeting to
the parents and friends of the men,'
as follows: "We of the 113 th field ar
tillery have been through times that
burned men's souls with- the horror
of It all, and the future of our live* ,

THE RESULTS
*VERY WONDERFUL
Wilmington man claims
Dreco, the new herbal
remedy, did him much
good.
Just because you are not inca
pacitated from your business or
pleasure, the warning of stomach i
trouble should not go unheeed, or
serious results are bound to fol
low. These warnings takki the
form of dyspepsia, indigestion,
dizziness, nervousness, constipa
tion, headaches, backaches, pains
in the back and sides; that tired,
run down feeliug, and various
other 'symptoms of a derauged
stomach, which can be restored to
its normal coudition by Dreco, the
.great herbal system tonic. Under
the influence of its great restora
tive effect, these disease symptoms
rapidly subside. It clears up the
liver, kidneys and bladder, and
enables these organs to perform
their proper functions; eliminates
uric acid from the blood, which
causes rheuraatisjn, and brings
back the flush of health to pale
cheeks by enriching and purify
ihe blood.
Mr. D. B. Futrell, of 102 Orange
St., Wilmington, N. C., says: "I
have been bothered with constipa
tion and stomach full of gas, in
digestion and dyspepsia; I have
taken Dreco and the results are
wonderful; all my troubles are
over and I feel flue again. lam
glad to endorse this medicine."
Dreco is sold by good druggists
everywhere and is especially
recommended in Graham by Gra
ham Drug Co.
How and What, if Saving Were
Fashionable.
The effect of fashion on saving
has been deemed so important by
the British National War Saving
Committee that it has devoted a
special paragraph iu one of its
reports of tho importance of mak
ing saving fashionable. This re
port reads in part, "An outstand
ing featuro of modern life is the
effect of fashion. Town life, uui,
versal newspaper reading, and
gregarious habits make people
very susceptible to suggestions of
all kinds, * * ♦ *. A stronger
counter, suggestion must be sup
plied."
. The report then urges simplicity
in life, dress, decoration, to pro
vide available money to lend to
the government, but also tore
lease services engaged iu non
essential activities for tho produc
tion of more important staples. ,
lit the United Stales tho war
made saving fashionable. It was
a good fashion,- especially the
fashion of buying War Savings
Slumps and Bouds. It would be
too I'.'id to have this fashion pass.
Wise buying, avoidance>of
intelligent saving and safe invest-"
irieni mean so much to the nayion
in the post armistice and /early
