SOME COUNTY MATTERS.
The affair* of Alamance county
have been economically adminis
tered. Not a dollar has been
squandered. Improvements have
been made, to do which it required
more money at the tin/e than there
was derived from the taxes, but
hi. that the people TnlghfKave the
benefit of the improvements for
immediate use money waa borrow
ed. Every stream in the county
has been bridged with steel
bridges, and there is no citizen in
the county who is not benefitted
by them. If one wished to go to
eny section of the country
to any other section of the county,
the streams would have to rise
higher than for many years past to
prevent It. The value of such im
provements cannot be calculuted.
Now, is there any Just reason why
any good citizen should kick on
such? Do not men go in debt
every {ley that they may have
good homes and other convenien
ces for themselves and families,
and pay for them afterward?
Much has been said in the county
canvass now on about the county's
indebtedness, and though the in
debtedness is given at $310,800.00,
from the books in the office -of the
Register of Deeds, there are Im
provements made and paid for to
the amount of $367,000, or about
$57,000 more than the indebtedness
—957,000 to the good.
The "calamity howler" is abroad
again. He comes out at nearly
i. every campaign. He makes ond
pictures conditions to suit his own
fancy for no other reason thnn to
serve bis iniquitous purposes. Its
■ cheap kind of politics—a de
praved and vicious sort—the kind
that the Republican-Progressive (?)
leadership in Alamance is banking
on in ita efforts to defeat some
Democratic candidate.
The thinking people of the coun
ty are giving little heed to such
methods, because they know the
leadership, its aims and purposes.
In the county canvass which
opened last Thursday, the 16th
Instithe candidates have met ap
pointments nearly every day and
night. At the day-time appoint
ments the crowds have been small,
for the people are busy; but at
night the crowds have been good.
They have listened with attention
and respect to the discussions.
The Republican press and speak
ers are conducting a campaign on
misrepresentations. It may seem
right to them in the game of poli
tics, but it does them no credit.
The people want the truth
•traignt, not diatorted.
Efficient service is what the peo
ple want in the conduct of their
county's business and in their offi
cers. Jisvent the Democratic of
ficers given it? What reason, then,
Is there for a change?
Saturday Is the last day for reg
istration. Are you registered? Are
your neighbors registered.
If the world were to come to an
end presumably Britain's official

WORD "COSSACK" STRIKES I
TERROR.
German* and Auatrlana Dread The'ae
' Terrible Maraadera of the C'sar— i
Great Factors In War*.
By P. M. Sarle.
, London, Sept. 26.—(8y w mail to
New,York).—lf you want to strife'
, terror to the heart of an Austrian
, or German these days, just, say |
. "Cossack." The very word seems to
hold a horror for the Kaiser's men
and also for Francis Joseph's
troops.
Remembering their exploits
against Napoleon, and their wild
warfare during the revolt of H6n
gary, Austrian* and Germans ahud- '
der when they think of the Cos-
sacks invading their countries. The
; Cossacks' cruelty during the Rus
sian revolution is well known and
their operations in China in 1900.
were criticised not only by all the |
world outside of Russia but hy the: 1
Russians themselves.
In the Russo-Japanese war the
. Cossacks did not live up to their
reputation. The reason was clear
1 enough, as they are marauders by
origin. Their reason for being in
warfare is to enrich themselves by
. it.
The Cossacks social position in
Russia makes him so. Originally
the Cossacks were formed from
bandits to protect the frontiers du
ring wars with Turkey and Poland.
And later when Russia started her
long march toward the East and
linked up with the Mohamedan
races of Central Asia, a Cossack
Voisco was formed also close to the
Asiatic frontier of the Russian em
i pire.
The Cossacks cost Russia nothing.
The empire endowed them with
special privileges for which in re
turn, at a certain are and under
special conditions tney have to
give military service.
The total Cossack population
" now is about 3,000,000, of which 700t
-000 are women. The Cossacks own
about 146,500,000 acres of land.
Military service is obligatory for
all men for 20 years, beginning at
the age of 18. The Cossack youth
prectically starts his military career
at 14, when He loins an organization
similar to tne Boy Scouts.
Active service the Cossack does
for three years in the preliminary
division, the next twelve -years he
is in active service, and the last
five he is on the reserve list. Every
Cosaack is bound to provide his
own uniform, equipment and horse,
the government furnishing the
aims.
Every Cossack troop on active
service is divided into three equal
parts according to age, and the
third only In real service while the
two others stay at home. They
arp bound to march out however,
us soon as the order is given.
Quite recently there was formed
in Tianskaspia three troops of half
' wild Turkomans. These are'now
• lining employed in the invasion of
I Austria. They are the creation of
the famous Russian Genernl Sko
beleff, called the "White General."
'■ His hatred of Germany was so
, great that Bismark feared him and
• paid a great deal of attention to
, him.
One year before Alexander II was
assassinate, in 1880, Skobeleff at
■ tempted to put through his plan
r of organizing troops among these
, half wild men. He knew well the
terrible part they would play in
1 nn Invasion of Germany. Alexnn
■ tifi 11, objected however, and the
■ pian fell through.
Alexander 111 formed an alliance
with France nnd it looked ns tho
Skobeleff's plan might be adopted.
' It had attracted attention in high
i diplomatic circles. But about this
. time ■ young German actress
whom Skobeleff was paying atten
' tion to poisoned him In a hotel In
1 Moscow. It was believed she wa»

Eart of Curzon See Trouble For
England.
The Earl • of Curzon, fbrmerly
Viceroy of India, in a public ad
dress in England this week, said:
"Germany has taken Antwerp to
fortify It, to keep it, to make a
great naval port of it, to use It as
a great Jumping off place for her
future attempts upon this country.
It is no temporary occupation un
less we make it so."
The speaker added that by forti
fying Antwerp Germany would se
cure a grip on the Whole of Bel
gium. make Holland play her will
and then settle down to her main
object the dstruction of Great Brit
ain. He said England Is in for a
long war, and declared hei was
shocked that some people should
think the hostilities would be over
'by Christmas.
In his opinion more than one
Christmas would roll be before the
ending of hostilities. He advised
his hearers not to begin to divide
up the German Empire "before you
have got hold of it."

SUMMARY OF THE
EUROPEAN WAR
FOR ONE WEEK READ AT A GLANCE
October 11. —With the conclusion of
that phase of the battle of the nations
which came with the fall of Antwerp
the censorship again has drawn a veil
over tho fighting In the greater part
of the European continent.
The Germans have resumed their
night attacks between C'raonne and
| Rhelms, which, according to Krench
' accounts, havs been repulsed. From
I Rhelms to ths Meuse nothing of lm-
I portance has occurred- of late.
Two Oerman aeroplanes flew over
Paris. They dropped a score of
bombs, which killed three persons and
wounded twenty, but did no material
damage.
Part of the Antewerp garrison and
The Australns also claim victories
orer the Russians at Lancut and Dy
now in Oallcla. It is known that they
hare received reinforcements. This
Petrograd admits, has compelled a
change In the plans of the Russian
army.
The Montenegrins claim a victory
orer the Australns in Boslna, where
they say the Australns tried to cut off
the Montenegrin army proceeding to
Sarajevo, but were defeated with
heavy losses.
More alarming reports come from
Italy of the spread of cholera In Aus
tria The Romanian government has
thought It necessary to take precau
tions of the AMtrlan legation• at
Bucharest.
October 12, —From the east came
tidings of a decided reversal In form,
the dispatches both from Vienna and
Petrograd Investing that the Austrian
army at Prxemysl so often reported
surrounded, hopelessly outclassed and
on the verge of surrender, had turned
on the. Russians with the aid of rein
forcements, and forced them to re
treat.
Probably stirred by the bomb drop
lng exploits of Oerman air craft over
Paris, London seems to be prepared
for suoh visitors, and official notice
has been served on persona living
near the mouth of the Thames that
they should be ready to seek their
cellars at the first sound of flrelng
as there will be no time to spread
the news in any more formal way.
It is qtated that the Oerman's lost
45,000 men durlag the attack on
Fortresses Waelhem and Wavre-St.
Cathrlne, at Antwerp, says a Central
News dispatch from Amsterdam,
Many towns which a feyr days ago
were In the hands of the Russians
are now again under Austrian ad
ministration. The Russians" have a
bandoned the selge of Przemysl In
Austrian Oalllcla, to put themselves
In a strategetlcal position to meet
October 13.—With the exception of
King Albert, who remains at the head
of the army, and the minister of war,
the members of the cabinet with the
other government officials and the
corps left Ostend by steamer for
Havre where they will carry on the
affairs of state and with the hospital
ity that has been offered to them by
the French government.
French forces have been sent to
cut off, if possible, this attempt to
reach the coast and, according to a
French official communication Issued
have taken the offensive.
The big German siege gun* used
to reduce the Antwerp forts already
have been moved. Jt Is reported they
are to be taken to the Vosges to re
duce Belfort.
Of fighting Oallcla, the official re
ports from Petrograd and Vienna are
so directly at variance that there Is
no reconciling them.
"It la officially reported from
Vienna that O,OOO Russians were
killed or wounded near Przemysl.
Belgian officers Interned In Holland
estimate about 20,000 Belgian soldiers
sre still In Antwerp as prisoners.
The Oermans, aa soon as they en
tered Antwerp, took possession of all
the fire engines In the city and com
menced extinguishing tho fires.
October 14. —For the first time the
French general takea notice of and
deniea aome claims put forth by the
Germans.
Vienna makes the claim that the
Russians have evacuated Lemberg,
while the Russians denied a similar
report that they had given up the
siege of Prsemysl.
Nothing has come through concern
ing the battle on the East.
Oerman reports coming through
Rome say that the real struggle Is
Just beginning and that, If neceaaary,
5,000,000 men can be called upon for
compulaory service, while many vol
unteers also are available.
Ostend's fate hangs In the Nuance.
The government has left. King Albert
and the main military headquarters
went and 00,000 panic-stricken people
await action by the Oermans who are
known to have a large force within
M miles of the elty.
The censorship haa prohibited any
mention of the operations to the north
of Arras.
On the left bank of the Vistula,
along the roads leading from Warsaw
to Ivangorod, our troops on October
IS successfully pressed back the Oer
man forces. One of our regiments cap
tured two Oerman companies.
October ll.—Two great battles, one
In Northern France and Belgium, the
other In Russian Poland, both with a
front of three hundred mllia, ugvs
The United States Supreme Court
met for the fall term Monday a
week. Mr. Mrßeynolds, late At

office as the successor of Associate
Justice Lurton, deceased.

[ j reached tbelr height but the public la
allowed only an occaalonal glance of
Ihelr progresa through official com
munications, which frenquentiy are
wildly at variance.
i Evidence that the German assaults
are. being delivered with less force is
conveyed In the Intimation that be
tween the Somme and the Oiae their
artillery attacks are not being follow
ed up with Infantry charges.
| The French claim to have made an
advance between the Meuse and the
Moselle and, after having repulsed the
German attacks to have reached south
of the road leading from Verdun to
j Metz.
j Belgians now are coming to Eng
| land in large numbers. About 3,000
wounded Belgian soldiers have reach
| ed this country, while England also is
1 getting more refugees from Holland,
| the towns and cities of which are
| overcrowded.
) Of the big battle In Poland the Rus
l slan official report says there Is no
I Important change to record. Rome is
again responsible for the report that
the Russians have defeated the Oer
| mans south of Warsaw, but this is be
lieved to refer to the fighting In which
the Russians yesterday claimed to
I have pressed the Germans,back.
The remainder of the strong allied
I forces at these various points are kept
in reserve within measurable dis
tance, ready for any emergency. The
cold and wet have made trench work
very trying, but the allies are well
provided with blankets and water
proof sheets.
October 16. —With both the belllger
net lines reaching to the sea there
now. can be no attempts at outflank
ing by either army. To win success
one or the other of the opponents
must break through the line and the
army having, the greatest number of
men and the ability to move them to
a chosen point seemingly has the bet
ter chance to succeed In this attempt.
The Germans are said to be sending
further reinforcements frpm Germany
to stiffen their lines and enable them
to resume the offensive. The French
are reported to have offered success
ful resistance to effectual use by the
Germans to the advance they made to
the River Meuse at St. Mlhlel.
Basel, Switzerland, again reports a
defeat of the Germans In the Vosges.
There Is no mention of this rumor in
the official communications, although
such a defeat has been reported sev
eral times from unofficial sources.
In the East both sides claim to have
I gained advantages in the preliminary
i fighting, but these victories and de
feats can have little effect on the gen
eral result of the battle In which It Is
d estimated nearly 5,000,000 men are en
•,! gaged. The Russians, It ls*sald, have
e two and a half million the
e Austro-German force Is declared to
r total nearly two million.
B One more keel haß to be added to
I- the British naval losses In the war,
Y the cruiser Hawke having been sunk
j by a German submarine ip northern
0 j waterrs yesterday. As In the case of
»j the ships which the Germans have
»destroyed by means of submarines
1 only a few of her crew escaped. The
| Hawke, like the Abouklr, Creasy and
1 ; Hogue, three other cruisers which
y ; have met the same fate, was a Chat
y ham ship, so that town again is in
>•! mourning. *
October 17.—Each day brings the
i* war nearer home to England. Today
' | there was a naval battle off the Dutch
» ; coast in which a British cruiser and
' four destroyers sank four German de
i stroyers, while on land the German
' j troops reached the coast of Belgium,
j loss than 70 mllea from Dover. They
1 | are about to attempt a march south
» j ward to Dunkirk and Calais, which
j are even closer to the English coast.
• | The fighting has only commenced
I In this district, however, for the Qer
' | mans, who would consider it a great
victory to reach the coast of Franci
> and "hold the pistol at England's
I head" have brought up strong rein
' forcements and will strive with all
their might to achieve this object,
i Along the center, which now
, streaches from Roye to the Meuse,
' there appears to have been a lull in
» the fighting, which means of course,
that although the artillery haa been
' busy as ever, neither side haa attempt
ed any attacks,
i Both Berlin and Paris express con
i fldence In the outcome of the battle
. In the east and weat.
Reports of fighting In Eaat Prussia,
■ Poland, Oalacla and Hungary are so
widely at variations that it Is difficult
. to judge of the progress of the battles,
t Austria claims to be driving the Rus
i alans out of Hungary, wtille the Rus

i country to escape danger of Infection

Berlin says the Oallcian fortress of

1 SIMMONS' DRUG BTOBJB, '
| ADVANCE OF THE WiffiS
Another British Warship Sunk
( London.—Another thrust from the
German submarine service has rob-
I bed the British navy of the cruiser
Hawke, and has raised the tally of
British warships sunk by the Oermans
, to seven. To this must be added the
virtual destruction of the cruiser Pe
i gasuH by a German warship at Zan
-1 sibar.
1 The Hawke, a cruiser of 7,350 tons,
' under command of Capt Hugh Wil
' Hams, was sunk in the North sea, the
graveyard of six'other victims of Ger
man torpedoes.
• Bad aim on the part of the Ger
man gunner saved the Hawke's sister
' ship, the Theseus, for that vessel, too j
1 was attacked, but she escaped.
The exact complement aboard the
' Hawke hag not been announced, but in
> ordinary times the men numbered 550.
As she was built several years ago, it
1 is probable her crew was not up to
- the full complement. According to
1 one report, she had only 400 aboard.
1 Whatever the number only 62 men
' were saved, and there was not a sin
gle commissioned officer among them.
• The cruiser Amphlon, Pathfinder,
' Aboukir, Cressy, Hogue, Pegasus and
Hawke »nd the torpedo gunboat
Speedy, make up the British list of
1 losses In warships In the first ten
• weeks of the war. Against this the
» British admiralty claims four Ger
' man cruisers, two torpedo boat de
> stroyers one torpedo boat, three sub
marines and eight armed commercial
1 destroyers.
. Omitting the aimed merchantmen,
the aggregate warship tonnage loss to
> England Is much greater than that to
' Germany.
' Horsemen Bwlm Swift River
J From the Battle Front.—lnfantry and
[ cavalry have been doing more fight
i ing during the last few days than for
• several weeks.
1 Two thousand French cuirassiers
have distinguished themselves by a
• daring feat in swimming the river Lys,
' where it flows deep and swift. They
' completely outwitted the Germans,
' who were awaiting them on the other
side with machine guns and heavy ar
-1 tillery.
• The French horsemen made a long
' detour during the night. One man
swam the ,river with a rope, then
' d'agged over a cable, which he attach
ed to a tree. The others, holding the
' | rope, crossed singly with their horses
'! through the swirling waters.
■| Arrived on the opposite bank, the
' j French drew up In line and charged
' | the German flank at Mervllle, driving
' I the enemy back and opening tbe way
' for the passage over the river of •
I division of allied infantry, which la
ter occupied Estalres. *

Boers Rsllylng To Botha
Capt Town, South Africa. —As a re
sult of Colonel Maritx' rebellion In the
northwest of the Cape provinces, Gen. j
Louis Botha, premier of the Union of
South Africa, and commander of the
troops of the Union, Is taking the field
earlier than he originally Intended to.
General Botha Is placing himself at
the head of several strong Dutch com
panies, organized on the old burgher
line, which are affiliated with regi
ments trained by the Union defense
force.
Commandants, field cornets and
burghers who served under General
Botha in the South African war are
rallying to his call. Irrespective of
their political feeling, to fight along
side the English In defense of the
empire against which they were In
arms twelve years ago. This fact hag

are now flocking to General Botha's
standard.

the heights about seven miles from
the town, but were Repulsed.

German army announces that in the
beginning a strong garrison defended
Antwerp with great energy, but that
after the attack by German infantrty
and marine divisions, the defender*

garrison was one British marine bri
gade. The complete collapse of the
Anglo-Belgian defense of Antwerp was
shown by the fsct that no militarj
authority could be found with which
to treat concerning the surrender ot .
the city.
