I've just been readjn' how poor old Sweden is one big snarl and kink; the kaiser's war has busted Norway, and Denmark's on the blink. No land so humble, it does not grumble; no country's so remote it isn't reeling, and madly feeling thai it will lose its goat. In every dwell ing some gent is yelling that war's a frightful frost, in mountain cottage , the peasant's pottage costs twice what once it cost The lone Nyanzas, as wall as Kansas, have felt the deadly chill; ; in Chinese Canton they get a slant on a' vastly bigger bill. The shepherd lonely whose task is only to guard his wooly bunch, feels Wil helra hitting when down he's sitting to eat his frugal lunch. The art it; hunter, whose spear is blunter than any-spear should be, thinks war costs trying when he goes buying a brand new snickersnee. There is no tavern, no hole of cavern, no jungle dense and dark, no river dismal no gulf abysmal, ; where war's not left its mark. ' . . w s s THE NEGRO SOLDIER. .

C, March 26 Sen ator Overman defended the adminis tration in the senate today against the attacks of Senators 'Lodge,. New, and Poindexter. He asked Scnatpr Poindexter why he iwas trying to.dis hearten and discourage the people of the nation at this critical time. "What is the purpose of this dis cussion?" said he. 'I hope my friend is not playing politics; I hon to God that is not the case this is no time for that." Mr. Poindexter entered upon a general criticism of the ad ministration. "Does the senator thirwk: this is a proper time to discourage the Ameri can ipecple, in the saddest Ihour of our history, during this war?" asked Sen ator Overman. "Does he think it a proper course to take on the floor of the senate? Sometimes silence is golden." "I have remained silent for a long time," responded Fr. Poindexter. "Then," added Mr. Overman, "the senator is taking this opportunity when we are in great distress to dis courage the American people, when he should be trying to enthuse in stead of disheartening them."- "This is not going to discourage the American people," said Mr. Poindexter. "It discourages everybody," said Mr. Overman. "Now is the time for all men to be true and silent about matters we even admit to be true The administration is doing the best it can to carry on the war regardless of mistakes. The senator's statements may be true, but we ought to correct any mistakes in the iproper way. Every man here on the floor wants to correct them. Avery man here. I think, is a patriot, and iwihy does the senator stand here at this very time when we are in a serious condi tion to make the people of America unhappy?" Let us work together."

Salisbury merchants identified muth of the goods but there was quite an amount unclaimed and it is cer tain this was stolen from some local store or a store in a neighboring town. Chief Miller, with the assistance of Policeman Hall, did a fine piece of wirk in running down this bunch of crooks. All he had to go ct was the fact that certain articles had been stolen from several stores and de scriptions of the articles. There iwere even no suspicions as to who got the goods, but after a week the chief had the bunch in court and they were con victed, pleading guilty in a number of the cases. .

President Wilson's message to Field Marshal Haig of confidence and ad miration is a true expression of American sentiment. There is ho occasion anywhere for depression or hysteria. This is one of the critical moments of the war, but it is only one of many critical moments. The 'issue again rests with the Allied troops on the western front, hut they have not failed in the past and there is no reason for thinking that they ,nay' fail now, in pite of the ferocity and intensity of, the,!per man otabsfreV : , , 'Plolldwi nl hs. tM ra i terktic ta ct ics, the begfrinittWfhfe 'that is What it did at Verdun, and that is what it has done in every offensive in the west. Von Kluck's drive upon Panis in August, 1914, was unprecedented in military history. Never before was such a mns3 of men and guns thrown nt such terrific speed against an en 3my; yet the attack failed. Von Kluck was beaten at the Marne and compelled to retreat to the Aisne. j Again at Verdun did the Germans write a new chapter in offensive war fare, and again the Germans were beaten, with total losses of more than 500,000 men. The operations of 1918 have been undertaken upon a scale so collossal that the human mind is staggered, ljut never before were the Allied fore es so well prepared to withstand the onslaught, and according to all re ports the British troops are righting with the dogged tenacity that is the most glorious tradition of the British irmy. There is a limit to the number of men that the Germans can afford to sacrifice. As long as the British lines hold, nothing of vital importance has been lost, and each day that the bat tle continues sees a lessening of the Germans' initial advantage. Perhaps cur very distance from the conflict has added something to Amer ican anxieties. There is no doubt, as Andre Tardieu, the French high com missioner, says, that many Americans have been "somewhat too nervous," 'nit in some respects this nervousness is to be welcomed. It is a healthy lign that the country is growing more and more alive to the real significance of this war, and that it is beginning ' o understand what a signal defeat of the British army would mean to the merican people. That realization is helping to jar a ; reat many citizens out of their smug complacency. Watching the advance ?f the German offensive, they can perceive now that every soldier in France, whatever his flag, is fighting Dur battle, and that this is not inci dentally and casually our war, but completely every dollar and every ounce of energy;. Today we are fol lowing the fortunes of Haig's troops as if they were our own and they "ire cur own. Fvery man of them is lighting for our cause.. Everey one of them who has died has died for our liberties. WSS A NEW BUSINESS HERE. Breakfast. Stewed rhubarb with cream Flemish Lwer Potatoes Muffins . Coffee Luncheon.
