THE PEACE SOLDIERS WANT.
The Stars and Stripes, the official
Newspaper published by the soldiers
of the American Expeditionary Forces
in . France, says editorially about the
enemy peace t offensive:
"Let the weak hearted who are
dreaming of a compromise; let the
pacifists who are talking a peace by
.agreement; let the sideliners who have
2iad enough of war; let the secretly
inclined pro-Germans who think this
"war should end without a decision
let them one and all know once and fox
all that for the American Expeditionary
Force there is no such word as 'Peace
with the Huns unbeaten. The man
who talks of peace to-day, - except
through victory, is a traitor."
That enenly peace offensive is liken
ed to the action of German machine
rgun crews in the Vesle fighting, when
they fought and killed Americans 'ua
til they were surrounded, then shout
ed "Kamerad."
The mothers of the American sol
diers in France want the same peace
their sons demand. All the courage
of the ancient "Spartan mother is la
Ihe hearts of the women of America.
The objects of the Fourth Liberty
Xoan js to bring that peace a just
r peace, a righteous peace, an Ameri
can peace.
" THE BICKETT DEMOCRACY
First and foremost, Governor Bickett
is for winning the war. Second, he
"wants North Carolina to remain de
mocratic and send ten representatives
with Senator Simmons back to Wash
ington to stand steadfastly by Presi
dent Wilson 1 in the execution of his
plans xo do the job quickly. ' His-Excellency
made a speech at Sp6ncer on
Labor Day which breathes the spirit
-of patriotism. But a-few republicans
did not like it and here is his reply to
Ihe critical ones, in amplified form:
"I may have Ijeen inept in say
ing North Carolina's change from
democratic to republican control
would be regarded in Germany as
- a repudiation of the war. But I
have a profound conviction and
would be a moral coward if I did
not express it, that to change from
a democratic to a republican con
gress would mean the death of
many more American boys
"u x nave no apologies to
make to any man in the world for
that conviction. I do not make it
f the test of anybody else's patrio
but my own. I would not be
- ra flf jot myself- if I did not ex
press SL If the country goes re-
publican ithis year what is it go
ing for? IVho is interested in an
t tfebellum issues ? Who would go out '
to hear anybody discuss them?
You could not run down a crowd
with blood hounds to hear issues '
i;hat we. used to discuss If North
, (Carolina .goes republican this
Vryear,, "it Trill go that way because -t
Q&pqses the war. There is noth
ing else that could cause it. There
is nothing else being discussed
. 3Mw. If a republican changes to a
democrat this year, he changes
Decause he believes with Lincoln
that, 'It is dangerous to change
horses in the middle of the stream? .
If a democrat changes to a repub
lican he changes because of the
war. There is nothing else for
-which to make a change and my
: conviction is that any such change
is a publication to the kaiser that
the country is not behind the war."
During the Spanish-American War
Mr. Roosevelt, at that time the repub
lican candidate for governor of Nev
York, and other leading republicans,
'expressed similar convictions in the
appeals they made for a republican
congress to support President McKin
ley. The Republicans have shown
-themselves to be loyal in the support
of war measures, but the moral effect
abroad is the thing which most con
cerns those who are interested in the
winning, of the war program. Tiro
argument made by the republicans In
1898 applies with equal force today.
VThe governor is right and the people
share his convictions. . A vote foi
Simmons and Weaver will be a vote
to sustain the president.

CAN UXCLE'SAM PAT THEDEBT?
Six billion dollars! Never before
in air history has any Nation) under
taken to raise that much money by
the sale of one issue oL bonds. Amer
ica is the only original breaker of re
cords, and here is where she breaks
another. Between now and the 19th
day 'of October this Government ;is
oing to" finish the Fourth Liberty
Loan drive and when it ends more
than six billion dollars' Vorth of Lib
erty Bonds will have been bought by
Uhe American people.
- Some doubting Thomas asks, "win
the Government ever be able to re
deem these bonds? Can Uncle Sam
pay such an enormous debt?" Can
he? Why Uncle Sam can raise six bil
lion dollars any morning before break
fast without hardly lifting a finger,
if it is really necessary to have that
much cash in hand. Can he pay the
debt? What is six billion dollars to
your Uncle Samuel ? Comparatively
speaking, nothing. Why this season's
crop "alone is worth more' than six
billion dollars, according to the latest
estimate of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This year's
wheat crop.accqrding to the sane esti
mate, is worth over two billion dollars
This season's cotton crop if put on the
market right now would sell for more
than two billion dollars. There is ten
billion, not including the oat crop, the
potato crdp ,the fruit crop, the barley
crop and last, but by no means least,
the "lasses" crop. '
The man who questions Uncle
Sam's ability to pay this debt is ig
norant. That is all. Uncle Sam 13
rich beyond the dreams of avarice. It
has been estimated by the greatest
financial experts that he could sell
one hundred billion dollars worth or
Liberty Bonds and pay for them with
out feeling it to amount to anything.
A Liberty Bond is a first mortgage on
every farm, every factory and every
acre of land in the United States. And
from all of these and more Uncle Sam
will take his toll in taxes when it be
comes necessary to redeem these
bonds. If anything on the face of this
earth is safe It is a "Liberty Bond.
And that is why no ress than fifty
millon people of America are putting
their earnings and-savings into these
bonds that and the knowledge of -the
sublime fact that every bond sola
helps America make the world safe
for human liberty and universal jus
tice. -

Wheat is the most important War Crop.
Until its production is increased still more
there will not beV enough to remove the dan-
. , ger of a Food Shortage f rom'the Front
Of twelve most important Food Crops, the entiw
'A
country gained in planted, acreage in 1917 over acreage o
191426,124,000 acres.
Of this gain the Southern States increased 14,965,000 j
acres ,or 57 per cent of the whole. , 0 ;
Of the individual crops the South gained: r
In Wheat 1,976,000
, In Corn 6,582,000 acres, or llf'teroT wnol J
In Other Food
of the . whole.
( Of the Pall wheat acreage of 1918 there was an in
crease of 3,067,000 acres, of which the South gained 2,332,
000 acres, or 76 per cent.
T Eut we can do still better in 1919. j
Let's back up Our' Boys in France. It is np less our
duty to furnish them and our. allies food than it is their
duty to fight. We are raising this fall an ample cotton crop
to clothe and provide edible fats and oils for our boys. Let j
Us raise a big grain crop next spring to help feed them. J
It can be done. The labor requirements are compara-
tively small, and the acre yields may be increased with good
seed, a well prepared seed bed and a liberal application of i
proper fertilizers.
