MAYO Paopmwro? CARL GOERCH. .Biiiiua WASH I N'OTOX, XOIiTII CAROLINA, AUGUST 11, 1916. Mississippi, Louisiana, Oeorgia, Xorth and South Carolina and one or two other states have had rheir floods. Now West Virginia cornea along with a record-breaker. Next! The Administration call* Hughes a liar, and Hughes calls the Administration by the same appelative. Truly thing* are warming up in the jh>litioal campaign. The opening of the Washington t? luire?? market i just five day? off. And when that days comes. we won't mind if we have to spend the entire day shaking hand* with farmers who come ill to see us. POLITIC \l. NEWS PAPERS. Although flection is Mill *?iue time distant, readers of newspaper? are already obliged t?? wade through column after column of |>olitical Muff daily. A perusal of the editorial columns of some of the papers reveal? nothing hut political iibberi-di. We counted eight paragraph* and three editorial* on tin- editorial page <?f one of the State papers ilie other ?lay. Practically the *aine <|uantity of this matter appears daily. Other pa|>ei> are alm?>?t a- had along this line. We Iwlieve that t In* majority .?f newspaper readers are interested in polities, hut we do n?;i ln?lie\e that they appreeiate reading I he one* ?idcd view? ?.f nme parti paper. It is all well enough for a paper to announce that it is Republican or llemocratic. in it> poliev. hut why under tin* -nti is it necoosarx to-keep pegging away ah-lig the same line, day after day; If do4-<ii*t do any material good to the party: in*tea?I. it doe* harm, for the average reader will Iweome so ?li?gusted ?>ver having to waste his iiiu?- reading this kind ?>f news, that he is ii.<-lin<*d io take the opp^itc view from that entertained bv the paper. An editor limy lie a dev??ut ehuri*1i meml?er. hut that is no reason why flic majorir.x of hi? new- items and the greater part ??f his edi torial? should lie devoted to article* |?ertainiuu t?? the church. Or lie tu h v l>e an enthusiastic ti-hermati. but hi* readers will so n tire ?1 having t?? peruse c?iluniti after column of news pertaining to fish in???? ven if tliev enjoy the -p-.r tlicmselve*. And it is tin ?ame with politics. People want t" rea?l ??.mtihinu else besides political article*- and opini? lis. A WHOM I I M PIJ ESS |()\. The captain and crew of the I >em?cblnnd -lived f??r home with the firm. frankly-e.xpre?M'?l opini- ti *^at American .??iitiuient ha? been niUuuderstood ahr?>ad. and that it i* milly favorable to Germany. I liev promised to assure tln-if tVlloW-e?unitrviiieii .f this fact. Their impression if natinal. hut none the le*? erroneous. The Americana whom they have m* i have U-fii mostly (b?rmau svmpa* thixers. Hence they have heard little hut words of approval for the Fatherland. Even those American? wh ubl not conscientiously express such sentiments, have courts?.u?ly r? ftained fn.m critical ex pressions in their presence. J'hcre is another important factor which may have misled these men. They have mi<mnder?t?>r?l the friendly attitmle of the nation a- a whole. They have failed to discriminate lintweeu per*4?nal admiration f.?r a few German r>ail??rs and approval of German war policies. The two have nothing t?? d?? with each other. Americans, without regard t.? th?*>r judgment ??r sympathies, have cxpre?*ed their admirati<?i for the rientsehlnnd's captain and crew liecau*e thev typified a * porting -pirit which Americans would have praised, regardless of their nationality. Every time any branch of any navy has performed n ?igual act of ?kill and daring, there has lieen in this country almost nnaniin-.u? applau?e. Hut that only proves the characteristic American -piiir "t" fairness. which judges everv man and every act on hi* ??r its own merits. It i?* fortunate that the lleutx-blaml"- crew call testify at home t ? the friendliness and fairness of our people. Hut it will lie unfor tunate if thev build false ho|?e? on what thev have ?ei>n and heard, lest they suffer painful di*illu?iontiicnt if it tiecomes necessary for us. under different circumstances, to criticise and condemn. HIFFERKNT I VPK OF MEN. A??>ording to reports from New Hern ye* ter? I ay. seven more men have lieen arreate<l for leaving * amp <*l?*n?>. Other men have ex pri^s-il themselves as dissatisfied with eonditi??n* there. Many com plaint-* have also lieen hear?l regarding the f?*?! they have to eat and the work they have to do. "How different these men are from the type who shoulders*! their mioket- m '?*?1 and went to hatilc t?? d?afend their rights! In connec tion with thi*. an interesting article recently appeared in the Haiti more Sun. It wan written hi ? Confederate veteran and justly crit icises the ,'M?|?|iera" of today. Part of this article read as follows: "Il i? a shame and aH trne Americans should blush at the article* appearing in the papers, full ?-f complaints regarding 'rations' fur- ' n i shed soldiers now in camp. When the meteoric army f?f the South sprang into existence in the men buckled on their belts, took up the old discarded musket or -*hotguri. tilled their pockets with cart ridges and trusted to luck for grub. They were patri<rts sod did not expert ice cream: they were glsd t.. tn-t what their country could fru nish them. "Soldiers who are ever complaining can not. turn out T*e?s, Jack sons and others, whose names are written in gilt on the pages of his tory. Ragged, lank, haggard and shoeless, but Swinton said 'they were fighters and the world knows it,' "The Southern woman scorned the man who did not enter the army. Are the women of America doing this today? Mothers, donrt coddle your sons; he glad that they have the courage to make the sacrifice to go to war. It will make them men whom you can be proud of; it will bring ont their good qualities and make them self-reliant."
