HEMBEIt OF ASSOCIATED PRESS Tho Aooociated lreM kt exclusively entitled to tho use for republication of all newt credited to it or not credited in this paper and also th local news published herein. MONDAY, SEPT. 10. AND IT IS SELF.DEFKNSE Some people contend that thi9 ia not a war of self-defense. They admit that it is self-defense to repel nn assault against one's person or property and that it was plain self defense for the United States to arm merchant ships. Since the arming of these vessels was not suflicient to protect the lives of the sailors and the ships from attack,, it follows that it would be self-defense to convoy merchant vessels. That being so, and it appearing that even conoyed ships are sunk, it is perfectly Cogical to use all the military forces of the government in stopping the careers of the murderers fro infest the high seas. Therefore the sending of an army to France is m self-defense. This is not the grounds, however, on which the United States entered the war in defense of human rights. This country entered the contest be cause the administration saw, and the millions of Democrats and Re publicans saw, that there was not enough room in tho world for dem ocratic governments and democracies of the kind that rule Germany. Treaties by them are held as scraps of paper, women and children are murdered and ravished, farms are de ktroyed, orchards are ruined, and or ganized anarchy supplants law and order. The United States had a dozen causes for entering the war, and it accepted only one tho cause of hu manity. IN HAD BUSINESS Reports from tSartown say that Dr. Ifcxander's speech Friday was a well disguised attack on the government, including the conduct of the war, and that the president of the State Farmers' Union proved himself a master at the job. The Herr Doktor is using his great office to embarrass the government in the most stupndeous task ever undertak en, and ho shuld be ashamed of himself to his dying day. By his example, he may cause some less as tute person to get into serious trouble, and for that reason, if for no other, he should bridle a tongue that has never been trained to in struct men along contructivo lines.1 wo might say, however, that we are not disappointed in the Doktor. It has been observed by Hickory citizens that if the first quota in each county of the state is as fine as Catawba's the new national! army will be composed of unusually good men. We are on record as having ex pressed the opinion that the drafted men will bo able to match courage with any other class, and we esteem both the regjars and guardsmen. Reports indicate that the first quo ta dispatched from other counties were picekd men, and this means that the officers at Camp Jackson will have splendid material to work on. Whtch these boys too. The Caldwell board of commission ers is not disposed to have the Horseford bridge repaired, we are informed, unfess it is done at the ex pense of private individuals, in which case it could be operated as a toil bridge until the completion of the concrete bridge about the first of ecember. In any event the wooden tincture should be put in service again. WILL INSPECT FOOD ID SUPPLY HOUSES ORGANIZATION It PERFECTED BY INSURANCE MEN IN NORTH CAROLINA. STATE DEPARTMENTS HELP AN Building Whin Food an 8up pile Ar 8tord Will Guarded Against Deetmotloa By Ft Watt. Organisation o(oMo(tlM most ef fective patriotic bodice la tho state has recently been perfected by spe cial agents. Inspector and field men ot virtually all lira Insurance com panies doing business In North Caro lina. It la the purpoe-e of tho organi sation to make inspection of all build ings where food supplies or clothing supplies may be concentrated to guard against possible loss by lira of any good which are needed In the prose cution of the war. Tue organisation waa perfected re cently at a conference ot Insurance men In the office ot 8tate Insurance Commissioner Jamee R. Toung In Raleigh. Present at the meeting were Governor Blckett. Commissioner Toung, 8. T. Tupper. of Atlanta, Southern manager ot the Queen Insur ance Company, Milton Dargan of At lanta, Southern manager of the Royal Insurance Company and A. M. Schoen, engineer for the National Board of Fire Underwriters. The conference was also attended by J. M. Brooghton. Jr., and A. T. Bowler, president and secretary reepeotlTSly of the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce and Prof. W. A. Withers, president of the Raleigh Rotary Club. Co-operation of all tha machinery of the State Executive and administra tive departments was pledged by Oor rnor Blckett and Commissioner Young. A committee of insurance men was appointed to arrange the de tails of the campaign and the plan to be carried out contemplates the dis tricting of the entire state, each dis trict to bs under the supervision of one of the insurance men who will make frequent inspeotJons of all whole sale houses or food depots, grocery stores or other places where food stuffs ars concentrated. Other In spectors will look after cotton gins and cotton warehouses acid all kinds of depots. The work thos dona la under the supervision of experts who will give without cost their trained experience to aid in the National campaign against unnecessary fire waste in the stringent war period. While these men are representative of insurance companies, the work thus undertaken la under the direction ot the National Government and the direct supervlslof of the Council of National Defense. Recommendation will be mads and instructions In firs prevention given t Miena and property owners snd where M la necessary propcrtr owners may be compelled to follow these in structions given by these Inspectors as war measure. The campaign la part of tha nation wld plan adopted by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. Similar organisations have been made or ars being made In every state. Represen tatives of the National Board at the meeting held In Raleigh stated that th work was belter understood by th insurance men In North Carolina and the campaign gives better promise of accomplishment here than In any state they had visited. Commis sioner Young has been urging work of this sort that la th adoption of measures to prevent fire and th subsequent unnecessary wast of food and supplies slue th war started and through a continuous aeries of appeals to th oltlsens of th stats, city and county officials, a considerable amount of success has been accomplished and It ia the belief of the commissioner that th people are familiar enough with the situation to carry the plan on to a great sue cess and in this manner to add to th campaign North Carolina's "Ms ia a valuable work.

"I suffered with a pain in my left aide, could not sleep at night with this pain, always In the left aide. . . My doctor told me to use Cardui. I took one bottle, which helped me and after my baby came, I was stronger and better, but the pain was still there. I at first let It go, but began to get weak and In a run-down condition, so I decided to try some more Cardui, which I did. This last Cardui which I took made me much better, in fact, cured me. It has been a number of years, still I have no return of this trouble. I feel It was Cardui that cured me, and I recommend It as a splendid fe male tonic." Don't allow yourself to become weak and run-down from womanly troubles. Take Cardui. It should sure ly help you, as It has so many thou sands of other women in the past 40 years. Headache, backache, sldeache, nervousness, sleeplessness, tired-out feeling, are all signs of womanly trou ble. Other women get relief by taking CarduL why not you?
