MERELY INTERESTING
A WORKING CONGRESS
The extra session of congress which
adjourned Saturday has made a rec
ord that has lever been equalled in
the history of parliamentary govern
ment in America. Spurred on by
the president and the public, both
houses of congress worked steadily1
during the spring and summer
and the result is a tremen
dous amount of war legislation, in
cluding tax and bond bills aggre
gating over $20,000,000.
Those senators and representa
tives who have done so much have
the public to thank to a great ex
tent. Had the public not been be-ligj
hind them, congress would have made g
a mockery out of the war and this g
country would have Deen neui in
contempt by friend and foe alike.
The LaFollettes, Stones, Reeds,
Vardamans and others of their kid
ney have obstructed, but not pre
vented. Wiith the exception of a
littlo group of wilful men in the
senate and another group in the
house, the country has every reason
to feel proud of this congress.

"THE MYSTERY OE T
ILE CROSS"
HE
DOUG
ilolo Pasha, the Levantine spy
and plotter, was intrusted with $1,
700,000 of German money to spread
peace propoganda in France favor
able to the central powets, the Ber
lin miniatrv seemingly thinking
that it could accomplish its pur
pose by intrigue.
Further revelations may connect
this German spy with efforts to buy
American newspapers. His acti
vities must not be confounded with
those of Bernstorff for the purpose
of influencing congress, although
the former German ambassador was
involved in the Bolo game.
Since Bolo Pasha's arrest in Paris,
where he probably will meet a death
reserved for spies, the American pub
lic is most concerned in the great
power Berlin assumes for the press
of foreign countries. It also indi
cates Berlin's estimate of the char
acter of the foreign press.
In Germany, be it understood, the
government control the press abso
lutely and a bureau chief needs only
to push a button to make a journa
list henchman jump. That doesn't
happen to be the case in France,
England and the United States, and
it probably has cost the German
government several millions to learn
that the newspapers in the rest of
the world are not only free, but can.
not be purchased with German gold
Last Wednesday unsolocited sub
scriptions amounting to $507, 0UO
were handed in to the New York
Liberty Loan committee. These
good people would not have been
reached, they probably were not
thought of, and yet they are the kind
of people the United States is look
ing for. There are some of them
in this section and they will demon
strate that this is one country.
illere is a point that every slacker
should take to heart: History shows
that the man who opposed his coun
try in time of war failed to com
mand the respect of his fellowmen,
but left a heritage that his children
deprecated all their lives.
MONEY SPENT AT HOME
Of the great amount of money that
the United States will spend in thi3
war, four-fifths of it probably will
bo turned looso in America. The
loan of $5,000,000,000 being made to
the allies also will be spent in the
United States, and in time they will
repay it all.
The war, it is thus seen, will not
be a drain on business of any kind
There are many towns that will re.
ceivo direct returns in governmem.
contracts far greater than the am.
out they are asked to subscribe. The
iarmer is assured nign prices nox
only for the years 1917-1918, but for
several years to come, because ths
great debts of all the belligerents
will cause them to make money cheap
so that they can meet interest charg
es. There must bo plenty of mon
ey and prices must be high.
The business man, working man
and farmer who fortify themselve3
with a few good bonds will not only
help their country and themselves in
a crisis, but will assure better con
ditions for all classes of people af
ter the war.
For once better social conditions
obtain, they are never lost. The fu
ture i3 safe if we do our part.
CARD OF THANKS
We desire to express our thanks
and appreciation to our friends and
rieighbors for their many acts of
kindness and help during the sickness
and death of our dear mother and
pray the Lord may return to them
many rich blessings for their much
appreciated help.

WJIAT IS EXPECTED
Zest should bo added to the Liberty
Loan campaign in this section of the
state by the publication of the ap
portionment for each of the towns
and cities. Hickory is asked to
raise $252,140, Mbrganton $129,080,
Newton $80,080 and Statesville
$184,438. There is not any more
difference in the size of these towns
than there is in tho size of the job
cut out for them, and there ought to
be a disposition to beat the others
to the limit.
Hickory was. practically the only
district in this section that raised
Sfcs full part of the first Liberty
Loan, and it will have to extend it
self, it is freely admitted, to pro
duce the sum assigned to it by
the bond committee.
fWfere it not a fact that farmers are
taking more interest in the present is
sue than they did in the first and for
the further fact that the public is
more determined than ever to show
that its heart is right, the raising of
this big sum would be a great task.
But we can do it.
Everybody should tako a bond. It
h a good investment.
Democracies cannot fight if they
LaFollette among themselves, as
Bismarck believed they would, but
they can put up a monster scrap if
they pull together like the French,
British, Italians and Americans are
doing.
