The Allies pursued and the Germans fought and retreated. The latest Infor mation is that the Germans are strongly entrenched in advanta geous positions to resist the at tack of the Allies, and one of the greatest battles of the war is thought to be in progress. The Germans have not .yet aban doned the North of Prance, but most of them have left Belgium. However, the fighting continues. The Kaiser gives out the infor mation that the siege of Paris will be resumed as soon as the Russian advance on Berlin is checked. The Austrian armies have almost been annihilated by the Russians, und great suffering, distress and discontent prevail in Austria on account of the many killed and wounded and the lack of food. No "war in modern times has hid so great a number of casualties, and yet the world knows only par tially of their extent. Maine Elects Democratic Governor. An election was held in Maine Monda"y~which resulted in the elec tion of Oakley C. Curtis, Democrat ic candidate for governor, by 3,500 over Oovernor William T. Hnines, his Republican opponent. Unoffi cial returns show the Republicans will have a majority- of three in the senate, and the lower house a majority of five for the Democrats, giving the Democrat* a -majority of two on Joint ballot. So much for an election in an old Republican State near the close of two years of Democratic Incum . bency in the White House. Don't look like President Wilson has sent the country to the bow-wows yet. Numerous conferences are being held, especially in the cotton States, /to take care of the cotton producer. The whole country is In terested, because cotton is the big gest by far of any Item of export from this country. No other ar ticle approaches it. Numerous plans arc being suggested and ex perienced men of affairs are trying to work them out to a practical conclusion. The solution does not yet appear in sight. This is one and that one "buying a bale" and fcome buying n bale a day, all these will help, but the task is too big to be cared for that way, and the Government, the States, coun ties and communities should help. Congress has decided on a war tax similar to that levied during Bpaniah-American war. The Euro pean war has cut off the receipts from Imports to such an extent that extraordinary measures are necessary to raise the needed rev enues for the operation of the gen eral government. This Is a case in which the innocent have to auffer, without any fault, near or remote, of the United States Gov ernment. The further presence of Ameri can troops in Mexico being deemed unnecessary, on Tuesday President Wilson ordered the withdrawal of these troops from Vera Crux. The "waiting" policy of the President has resulted In beneflta incalcula ble to Mexico as well aa to the United State* In view of the gen eral war In Europe and the Baat. Delaware the pther day in a Democratic convention endoraed President Wilson for the presiden cy In IBIS. European War Aids the American Resorts. New York, Aug. IS.—More than VIOO.aM.MO annually expended by American health aeekera, who. du ring recent yeara have felt them selves dependent upon the Euro pean anas. Is expected in the future to be diverted to American resorts where aa effecaciou* treatent can be obtained. According to metrical scientists, America has springs water* are Just a* efficacious in the treatment of certain diseases a* are famous apas at Carlsbsd. Baden- Baden, Nauheim, and other Buro pean resorts which have been very pupular with wealthy Americans. In addition, it i* pointed out by the scientist* and medical men, in view of thsi altuation In Barope, It U likely the. near future will see artificial radium batha established Id all the Amrrican cities and that these *lll supplant the European apas Institutions already have Men established In some American cities where the European apa treatment may be taken by the uae of prepared radium batha, radium earth parks, etc. A careful estimate of the annual expenditures by Americans who tourney to the European spas Is placed above the mark. This sum, which has gone to for eign-owned companies and Europe an hotels, will, it is pointed out, be kept In the nlted States and add another imposing figure to the li|} of tremendous outlays of money that will be diverted from Europe to the next few years as s result BRYAN MAKES STATEMENT. Four Pacts Signed"that Will Make Armed Conflicts Almost Impossible. „ Washington, Sept. 16.—Treaties . between, the' United States and Great Britain, Prance, Spain and t China were signed to-day by Secre tary Bryan and the British, Prench, Spanish and Chinese Ambassadors. These pacts the Washington gov .j eminent believes, "will make arm - ed conflict between the Ufilted States and the.se nations, almost if , not entirely impossible." They provide that all disputes that can not be settled by diplomacy shall ■s be submitted to a permanent com mission for investigation for one - year. ' , The four are similar in principle to the 22 treaties signed with Central and South America and a few European countries, 19 of which e have been ratified bv the Beirate. Secretary Bryan dispatched tele - grams to' the American embassies 2 and legations in Germany, Russia, Austria and Belgium notifying » them of what had occurred apa e expressing the desire of the U#>Ued States to sign similar treaties with ■ those countries. Japan alone" has j has not accepted the principle or entered into negotiations becauie - of th» desire of the ministry there . not to confuse the Japanese public while the alien land controversy is being adjusted. One of the practical effects of the treaties signed today is to make 5 more remote than 'ever the posal bility of the United States being drawn into the present European war over any delicate questions of neutrality which might arise with Great Britain or Prance. j t Members of the cabinet and bd inistratlon officials witnessed the * signing ceremonv in the office of the Secretary of State. Afterward Mr. Bryan issued the following statement: I "The signing of the four treaties to-day with Great Britain, Prance, 1 Spain and China bring under treaty obligations more than 900,000,000 t people. These when added to the population of the United Statea ' ana the population of the 22 coun -1 tries with similar treaties have ' heretofore been signed, bring* un- I der the Influence of those treaties onsiderably more than two-thirds , of the Inhabitants of the globe. 1 As these treaties provide for in , vestigation of, all matters in dis pute before any declaration of war or commencement of hostilities, it is believed they will make ardmed conflict between the contracting nations, almost, If not entirely im ■ possible. U. S. Can End the War by Embargo on Exports. New York, Aug. 28.—The United States government could stop the war in Europe by placing an em bargo on wheat, flour and other products. It was asserted to-day at District Attorney Whitman's John Doe investigation into the in creased cost of living since the vomriet began. " . Chief Magistrate McAdoo, before whom the inquiry is in progress, questioned witnesses as to what tne effect would be if America ' ceased exporting to the beligerent t nations. James Ward Warner, t president of the New York Pro duce Exchange and George Zab rinski, resident manager of Minne apolis manufacturer* of flour, each •aid the end of the warfare abroad must result. There was a big demand for flour in Porcign countries, accord ing to these wltne*ses, with a heavy demand too, in domestic market*. Mr. Zabrinski said there I* * shortage of 00,000.000 bushel* In the Ruisian wheat crop and that prudent housewives, fearing a shortage at home, have been laying in barrls of the product, Instead or buying by bags, with a result that flour nas gone up. Mr. Zarinski declared the United States could dispose of it* entire I flour output to Prnnce, England, Greece and Turkey, at any reaaon -1 able price*, and receive payment in gold before the staple was put aboard steamships. Not only would war in Europe end if an embargo wa* placed on American product* was placed on American products, Mr. Zabrinski and Mr, Warner agreed, but normal markets would be established st home and the prices here go down. Mr. Warner volunteered the opinion also that •uch an embargo would bring the wrath of the farmer* uopon the head* of the nstional administra tion of they were told they could not export grain to Europe. Mr. Warner said the Grain Ex porters' Association of North America with headquarters in Phil adelphia, did not attempt to fix prices. Ralph L. Carl, assistant New York manager for another Mlnne apolis milling company, declared there wa* no combine to fix prices. He believed there wa* a poeeibill . ty of wheat going higher, he said, adding that European demand was a factor in price-quoting. The body of Mile Jovanoff, a Russian, employed by a fibre com pany at Canton was found in Pigeon river Monday. He hsd been In the hsblt of bathing ing the river, and It I* presumed he was drowned while in bathing. Te it is again poasible to trans money to Europe through regu lar banking channel* Secretary Mc- Adoo announce* that the Treasury Department will not receive further depoelta of money for Americans abroad. Vive miles from Trinity, Ran dolph County, Friday night, Leon Briles, St years old, committed su licide by shooting himself. He had been brooding over the loss of a mule, all the property he owned, The mule was hurt accidentally and had to be killed. J. Seagraves, a brakemn on a shifting engine In the Norfolk and Southern railway yards In Raleigh, stared on tbe engine to apply ibe brakes when he saw a collision with an automobile was inevitable. Aa a result his foot was crushed but the automobile people escap ed. At a mass meeting of farmers snd others, held to CHhrlotte Sat urday to consider the cotton situa tion, a resolution offered by W. C. Dowd, asking O overaor Craig to call a special se**lon of tbe ieg lilature to enact such measures as would tend to relieve the situation, was unanimously adopted.

' (International Newa Service.) Petrograd.—Much haa been said | and written sines August 1 of the causes of ths great European war and the attitudes, alma and ambitlona of Germany, England and Prance In the atruggle, but little haa been beard of 1 Russia's side of tbe affair. | Basha Kropotkin, one of tbe best In formed Russlana and a man who | knows whereof he speaka, haa written the following article on the war from the Russlsn's viewpoint: "To* say that the present is a war agalnat militarism Is to be guilty of a platitude. Por days past every leader writer In tbe country has been saying so. Yet tbe attitude on this subject of a great number of people Is extremely curious. They seem to be oppressed by the thought that they may have to cry, when tbe war Is over, 'Le rol est mort, vlvs le rol.' After Oermany—Russia. "England cannot craah German mil- Itarlsm alone. All of us who have followed the lead of Germany for forty yeara muat strike together. Bel gium haa atnick her blow. Prance and Russia will strike harder; per haps the heaviest blow will come from Russia. And there is tbe rub. Por what if Russia, having helped to cruah Oermany, develops a psychol ogy analogoua to that of Oermany after 1170, and after taatlng power de oidea to become the greatest of all— fosters the spirit of mllltariam which we are now arrayed against T "Let ua picture Ruaala victorious. Then, so argues Mr. Bernard Shaw (and In the given caae he repreaenta not only hlmaelf, but quite a number of other people): The Ruaalan govern ment will triumph , . . Oermany 1 'will be cruehsd ... ths balance of power will Incline in favor of Rue , sla. After that the situation become* too' horrible to contemplate. "Mr. Shaw might be reminded that there la another Russia—the Russia of Tolstoi, Borodlns and Oorkl. But for the time that is forgottsn; or psopls refuse to rsallse the extremely important fact that If Russia is lustra mental In defsating Oermany It will be largely owing to the Intelligence of. that other Russia. "Rusalana have aunk their dlifer encea; they are ehowlng a united front. A month ago there were barrt cades In St. Peteraburg; the day the war waa declared the barrlcadea die appeared, and the men who had held them were tbe flrat to Join the army. They were willing to lay aalde their personal grievances In tbe dealre to atrike a blow at Oermany; and It la military Oermany at which they are aiming the blow. Por thoae men and women owe an enormous debt to the culture of Oermany. They know more about It, too, than the men and wom en of many other countries, having atudlsd it mors clossly, eager to as aimllata what waa beet In It At the same time they realise perfectly that the first culture to droop and wither in the stifling atmoephere of Oerman militarism la Oerman culture. Prom eupplytng the world with the beat mualo and literature and philosophy, Oermany has become an authority on unlforma and decorative dlnnerwars. The Oermans may have fashioned a great empire, bet they have become a small people. . "Now, at last, they may become a great people. If Europe eucceeds in bursting the bonds of militarism the flrst to beneflt by the change will be Oermany. "Mr. Shaw talka glibly of the necea slty of oonaervlng Germany's eaatern frontier. Why? Against whom and what? It la not Germany'a eaatern frontier that haa mattered one Jot In the European balance of civilisation; it le that Ruaela lay beyond that fron tier and eerved aa the-bulwark not only of Oermany but of Europe agalnat the Tartara who overran her and pat back civilisation by a couple of centuries. It is idls speculation, but an interesting point nevertheleea, to wonder whether Oermany would have maintained as much culture as Russia haa done had aha been foroed to bear the brunt of euch aa Invaalon. "Ruaelan bureaucracy, aa all bu reaucracies, has welcomed militarism, and has counted on It confidently aa a support. With a weaker Oermany there will no longer be either excuse or nsnssslty for enoouraging it; and the bureaucracy will loee ground pm- DortlonatalT "It le obvious that If pragrsedve Russia has Joined forces with reac tionary Ruaela tor the moment It te beeaaee she feels herself strong enough to poetpone her own demands.

Stat* Board of Health !■ The menage of the feeble minded to our own and future generation*, through the seemingly impossible problem of aegregaFion, has only during the past decade received the attention its magnitude de mands. This question past gener ations have neglected, in the futile hope of its elimination through the law of "the survival of the fittest." t To-day, thanks to the Blnet sys tem of psychological test, supple , mented by the test* of Dr. Huey, Dr. Healey and others, we are be ginning to realize it* grave im importance. Applying these tests to our children in our public schools, experts tell us that af least 2 pe cent, are mentally defective. New York City alone, according to ' the estimate, has 15,000 feeble minded children in the public schools. Conservative authorities hove placed the number of feeble-mind ed persons in the United States at at 200,000; and estimated that this class constitutes one-fourth of the population of our prisons and re formatories. The present capacity of our institutions for the feeble minded is about 20,000; almshouse* contain about 16,000, and there are in the neighborhood of 5,000 in in stitutions Tor the insane. The total number receiving public care in the United States, according to com petent authorities is about 67,000, thus leaving at a low estimate, 33,000 without institutional ad vantages or control. Are these unfortunates on the in crease? The Royal Commission of England has come to the conclusion after four years of study of this problem that they were increasing at twice the race of the general population. Careful investigation has shown that at least two-thirds of the feeble-minded children are feeble-minded parents, or grand- Sarents or both. Dr. Henry H. oddard of New Jersey does not believe that any "truly feeble-min ed child was ever cured," and other competent authorities agifee with agree with him in saying "that it is useless to try to develop the latent mentality of feeble-minded chil dren, because it does not exist. What steps have been taken or remedies proposed for a solution of this problem that threatens the very foundation of society? Sterili zation has lone been advocated by many penologists and alienists as the one -certain preventive measure. Eight of our States have passed laws providing for sterilization of certain classes of defectives, but in only one are they enforced. This remedy can be only of restricted service until public sentiment is developed to sustain the execution of such laws—perhaps in two gen erations, or until something better offers. Restrictive mar riage laws have demonstrated that their influence. - can be only partial, inasmuch as T these defectives reproduce their kind re gardiesds of marriage, and in far greater number than normal peo ple. Segregation, that is proving so practical and effective for the the insane, remains, in spite of the magnitude of the undertaking, the one available solution. We must not forget that thirty years ago segregation of the insane seemed equally imposflible.i Dr. Hastings H. Hart, director of the Department of Child Helping of Ihe Russell Sage Foundation, has for years been indefatigable in his efforts to find a working program to meet the problem of mental de fectives. He believes in legislation, to give the State absolute control, as is the case with the comm : cment of the insane, if the real results are to come from the segregation of the feeble-minded. Since it is impossible to provide in the near future for all of this class, Dr. Hart is strongly advocat ing, Ist, that in every new insti tution for feeble-minded children preference be given in admission to girls of chila-bearing age, and 2nd, that every institution for fee ble-minded children shall cease to receive girls under the age of twelve, or boys of any-age, until every feeble-minded girl of child bearing age is provided for. MODKRN HOSPITAL. Prosecutions Under the Vital Sta tistics Law. Statue Board of HeAh Bulletin. No less than six indictment* and convictions have been secured within the last two weeks under the new law requiring the regis tration of births and death*. All these prosecutions were made against doctors who for one cause or another had failed to register births. In moot cases the doctors acknowledged that it was a mat ter of negligence on their part, pure and simple, and expressed an appreciation of the value and im portance of the law, and promised not to be delinquent in such mat ter* hereafter. In all such cases an effort has been made to secure the minimum fine. The doctors caught In the mesh of the law are a* follow*: Dr. A. A. Bulla, Davidson county, Dr. R. H. Morefield, Stoke* county, Dr. J. P. lioskins, Bdenton, Dr. Charles B. Check, Wake county and Dr. H. H. Cauble, Kannapoli*. Thi* law ha* now been In very ■ucceaaful operation for the last • months, and all doctors, undertak er*, mldwive* and other* having to do with It have had ample op portunity to become acquainted with it* provision*.

From 100 to 120 pounds averdu poise a week isn't had gaining for sick folks i* It? That Is Just what from £0 to 90 tubeculosis patients are gaining in the State Sanatorium every week. What's more they are doing that during hot weather. Consumption is a wasting dis ease. As long as the disease is progressing,- the victim loses flesh. When the patient begins to im fjrove one of the first symptoms s a gain in weight. A gain in weight means that not only is the course, of the disease checked and this wasting away or "consump tion" halted, but that the tide of the battle is completely reversed, and" that tubercle baccilli are on the run, and that the physical con dition of the body is being rap idly improved. Every Saturday morning each pa tient at the Sanatorium is weighed. They soon learn the meaning a a gain in weight, and a gain of a pound or two over the previous week is music in the patient's ears. Some of the patients at the Sanato rium, of course, gain faster than others. Some gain as much as four or five pounds a week. Others barely hold their own, and a few in the last stages may gain a lit tle one week and lose a little the next week, and so it goes. The to tal gain ot all the patient* amounts to from 100 to 120 pounds a week, or about 3 tons a year. The great surprise to many peo ple who visit the Sanatorium for for the first time is the general healthy looking condition of the patients. Ordinarily we expect to berculer people to be thin, poor poor and emaciated, but, as a lay man expressed himself a few days ago, the patients he saw at the Sanatorium were a "healthier looking bunch than the general run of people over here on the streets of A " Nor are they de ceiving their looks. They are get ting well and strong on Sanatorium treatment.
