His notes to the two countries, both in tone and language, are considered as taking the right stand, and no iurther correspondence is con sidered necessary. On Washington's birthday ora tions Monday, many of the most ; prominent men of both parties called attention to the grave j situation we now face, commend I ed President Wilson, and urged come, that stand A GLASS BOUSE STONE-THROWER. A paper that says the woods are full of men as capable as j that whatever shall Wilson and Brvan, is expected our ninety million people to misquote and slander Simmons j by him as one man. In a speech m Morristown, and Glenn. They were twin very active in removing the dis grace of Russelism from North Carolina, and this fact still sticks in the craws of some people. Mr. Simmons did not say he had seven clerks to the Finance Committee, because the Repub licans had had seven. He said he had two less than Aid ridge had and that the seven he has are necessary and that they are kept busy wirh the work ( that great committee. There is no harder worker -in Washington than F. M. Simmon-, and an idler or unnecessary subordinate would not be tolerated by him. "It is time to quit talking about economy during campaigns unless we are going to practice it after the campain is over," says the News. Lets bring this proposition right down home. One month before the election you blamed the Democratic county commis sioners for increasing the salary of the county jude from $35 to $50 a month and said it was too much pay for the work of the office. A month after the elec tion your party board elected or appointed a judge and fixed the salary at the latter sum. It has been drawn monthly without calling forth any criticism of the Repulican board by the New?, so far as we have noted. In this connection, how con sistent and forceful is the follow ing sentence in the same editor ial! "Senator Simmons acts the baby just like Bob Glenn did about his drawing money out of the government that he did not earn that is that the republi cans fixed his expenses at ten dollars per day." Dwellers in glass-houses should not throw stones. New Jersey, ex-President Taft referring to this illegal and in human warfare going on in the English channel, uses these fine words: "When their violation results in the destruction of the lives of American citizens or of Ameri can property, a grave issue will arise as to what the duty of this Government is. The responsi bility of the President and Con gress in meeting the critical is sue thus presented in maintain ing our National rights and our National honor on the one hand, with due regard to the awful consequences to our 90,000,000 of people of engaging in this horrible world war, on the other, will be very great. It involves on their part a judgment in its consequences that we should earnestly pray that the neces sity for it may be- averted. "If, however, the occasion arises we can be confident that those in authority will be actuat ed by the highest patriotic mo tives and by the deepest concern for our National welfare. We must nqt allow our pride or mo mentary passion to influence our judgment. We must exercise the deliberation that the fateful consequences in the lots of our best blood and enormous waste of treasure wrould necessarily im pose upon us. We must allow no jingo spirit to prevail. We must abide the judgment of those in whom we have entrust ed the authority and when the President shall act, we must stand by him to the end."

Tke reports of the battles be tween the great armies in Europe are now given importance in th only secondary i headlines and space of the daily papers, to the political and diplomatic moves of England and Germany in regard to destroying and safeguarding their commerce on the waters around the two countries. Even the great -victory of the Germans over the Russians in East Prus sia, in which Germany claims to have taken 100.000 prisoners, is given very little attention. The efforts of England to cut off all food supplies from reach ing Germany and the efforts of Germany to sink English freight and passenger ships without notice or warning by submarine boats, is looked upon as the most critical and perhaps the most eventful phase of the war. If either succeds, a more effective blow will be delivered its rival than could be done by an over whelming victory on land. Ger many is already feeling the strangle hold the British navy has on her very vitals. The soldiers and the civilians are hun gry, and she will have to surren der to starvation if the lines are drawn any tighter. On the other hand if the German submarines play such havoc on shipping in the waters around England as to stop neutral ships with food supplies from entering those waters, England will be starved to submission in a few months. The crucial test has been shifted from the land to the waters, and there are many who see in this an early termination of the war. Both nations have flung aside international law and agreements as to the rights of belligerents and neutrals on the waters. The replies of Germany and England to the notes of warning by the United States against destruc tion of the lives and property of Americans give no assurance that either will change its form er proclamations. Botn promise to use all possible care to avoid the sinking of our ships but say in the carrying out of their pro grammes accidents may . happen. And each blames the other for this state of affairs. That the United States is now facing a grave danger, nobody in Washington or elsewhere is attempting to disguise. The temper of the people, in sinking partisanism and approving the Course of the President and ex- the war on the side of the allies. Since the German blockade of the British waters went into ef fect last Friday two British freight ships have been sunk in the Irish sea. Bread is becoming so scarce in Germany that no one can get a loaf of bread or a pound of flour without a bread ticket. The ba kers are beginning to make a bread from potatoes and rice that they can sell without tickets. An American ship, Evelyn, loaded with cotton for Bremen, Germany was sunk off the Ger man coast, near the Bremen har bor Saturday. This is outside the war zone, and was undoub edly due to running on a mine placed in the North Sea by either Germany or England. Germany is in such sore need of cotton that no one supposes the ship was sunk intentionally. But the State department at Washing ton will make a through inves tigation, and fix resposibility, if possible. The automobile accident last Friday morning about one o'clock when Mr. Frank Aycock, en grossing clerk of the Senate was killed and Speaker Wooten dan gerously injured, was the. most regretable affair of the new year in North Carolina. They were returning to Raleigh from the country club. On a curve, the negro driver lost control of the machine and it was run on a bank and turned over. Young Aycock who was a son of the late B. F. Aycock and a nephew of Governor Aycock was killed instantly. Speaker Wooten was internally injured. He was oper ated Saturday evening for a rup tured kidney. His condition is very critical. Senator Johnson of Duplin, the other member of the party was not hurt but is unnerved by the death of Aycock and the serious injury to Mr. Wooten. NOTICE.
