THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1918 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. 51 ELBA GOODS We have aU the ,Mclba preparation?. Hunter's Pharmacy. 10-15-3tc. . Put Your Dollars into Khaki!

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. - .
