We have some good, brave pat
riotic people in America, some
whose ardent love of country
makes them stand ever ready to
support this Government in what
ever emmergency it may be
placed, and then there are those
who- have become so commer
cialized, such devout worship

no affront to this government
however flagrant, no wrong how
ever unjust, or serious would
excite in them to the slightest
de^rree of resentment. Let it

the fact is they had no business
to have been on the lines, in
fact they were warned to toeep
off. This is in substance the
utterance of a leading North
Carolina daily.but if the man who
once stood sponser for its edi
torial utterances had been here

stuf in his paper, pity it is,
but such is the case The whines
of the commercial grafter who
cares nothing for country save
as it makes it possible for them
to get hold of the almighty dol

saddler, or some with similar
sentiments, well might the lov

several wars, but she was never

is hard to conceive of how much
money is k^st to a community by
their citizens buying goods and
wares from distant mail order
houses. The parcel post and the
express office tells the tale.,
Ihousands and thousands of
dollars go out of each commun-*
ity annually to enrich the big
mail order houses of the North
and West, and it goes to pay for
goods that could be purchased
from home merchants at far
more satisfactory prices than
are paid for them, besides to
buy at home, you get a chance
to get some of the money back
again. If you send it to'the
mail order houses it goes beyond
