THE FIl-lBtSTER. ••V tilibuster is generally looked upon as a useless delaying of a measure which is before one of the legislative bodies of the gc'f.i vnient. Knwaver, the one just recently staged tn ht* Senate cannot be said to have been without a good result. Senator Bur ton by his delaying tactics has suc ceeded in reducing the River and Harbor bill to *20,000,000, the maxi mum limit set by the President. He has succeeded in liaving $14,0#0,000 which was intended for new improve- s of for nuiion A\ iss( 1: It is announceii that the .National Kepulilitaii Congressional I'omniittee lias di i idi'd not to issue a campaign ti'.vt hiiok this yaer: hen<-e the C«.

Th<* Administration's Mexican policy was supported by 70 House Re publicans and 24 Senate Republicans. he embarrassment of the Republi cans is shared by the Bull Moose, who Ueports continue lo come from the I'uropean war zone accusing those cngag.'d of commiting shocking atroc ities. It is quite natural for one sitle to accuse the other of violating rules of warfare but when reports arc conlirmed and continue to come thero must be something true in the state ments. It is certain though that th reports arc exaggerated, that ailded tletails are given in an effort to wi sympathy. But even allowing for ex aggeration the conditions must he terrible and it is certain that the loss in killed and wounded is being mini mized. We read reports of trenches nine miles long filled with dead and most of us do not realize just what an awful picture that makes. The people right there know just what iK anil in reporting such things it is to l,e expected that they will make it ap pear as badly as they can. With suel. large forces of men continually tighl- ing it is almost impossible that tht'y keep within the bounds of lawful war fare and umler conditions with which we are not familiar it is not surpris ing that ot'currences happen which are (lassed as atrocities. it should have the advertising sup port of all the business men of the town. When We begin to count up thf' amount of money sent out of the South to pay for things that can be grown here it becomes plain why the money centers aiul large cities are not in till' South. 'I'akc Georgia for example, that State sends to the Northwest to }>:!> for food-stutTs more than one hundred and fifty million dollars a year. This large sunt goes to pay for Wes tern hay. Western meat, and many other things that can be grown pro fitably right here in the South. Thu case with North Carolina is tlte same. \\'i grow cotton and tobacco, the money crops, and let the others go, this is why the South is dependem on other sections of the country for actual bread and meat. The farmers shouhl grow diversified crops ani make an effort to break away from the ilependance on other states. There is no time like the present, when the farmer is almost driven to it, and the state of affairs seems lo be recogni? ed by a great many of our people. aehes which lasted for days at a time.

In this day of competition when a business man has to be progressive anti up-to-date it is surprising how few men realize the value of judicious atlvertising The man who succeeds s the otie who advertises and kt'eps on advertising. The large depart ment stores in the cities are regular and large advertisers and they owe great deal of their success to this one fact. Newspaper advertising ts one of the most satisfactory kind that has ever been devised and it is avail able to nearly every merchant. An advertisement in a daily will reach more people every day than could pos sibly be reached in any other way. It is the merchants daily chat with his customers it reaches them at their BANKS HOAItDIXG MO.\KY. .Secretary .McAdoo is exactally right in adopting stringent measures in regard to the banks that are hoard ing the money intended to aid the people ill this time of need. Some of the banks have been accused of charg ing excessive rates of interest and refusing crcdit and of piling up a large reserve thereby keeping money out of circulation. The banks by do ing this will defeat the purpose for which the money was sent to the banks. The secretary is determined to make a thorough investigatioi and expose those banks which arc guilty of such practices. He sayi that all funds will be withdrawn from banks found acting in such a way that the funds in their hands do not ac compllsh the result intended. In the present situation it is essential that everybody pull together in an unsel fish spirit for the good of the country For part of the banks to refuse thh; help will greatly impair the unse- fulness of the plan, and it is certain that much good will reslut from llu’ investigation now under way. In the midst of war a tremendous influence for universal peace is esta blished it: the signing last week ol treaties between the United States and Great Britian, France, Spain and China. These treaties similar in principal to the 22 treaties previous ly signed with Central and South America and a few European coun tries, provide that all disputes which cannot be settled by diplomacy shall be submitted to a permanent com mission for investigation for one year. They are the kind of treaties that Colonel Roosevelt sneers at, but one of the practical effects of them is to make more remote than ever the pos sibility of the United States being drawn into the present European war home when they can read and take also are handicapped in attacking m just what the merchant wants them | over any delicate questions of neu- the Democratic policies of the present know.
