The lleeord believes that ai'u-r Uie Lu.-itania blowing up, Am ciii'.ii'.i v.-vie arou?ed as they have no. bev u ai-viUfvd since, even by the pu'jliv.iiiou vi tiie German intrigue to ih.i.i-.e ;.lvieo and Japan to de clare war r.i a country that was then at i va.'e with the imperial German so vi ::!!..:;;. When the Lusitania wvut avn sviili the 11- Americans on r.i probably would have been t'ne time io strike had there not been ctlitr cn.-iderations. Auaui;.,' iluse considerations were I'i'ei-'.src'iuess and paeilism. The I. nitv ! .States is a paeiiic nation. Its hi.-tvi-y is proof of this. It does not like war no modem republic or de iiiocraey does. It was u.illcult to arouse the coun try to the seriousness of the situa tion. Tiie war was far olF, and in his c. lolls to keep the country out of it, the president and his associates ijetmiuiy used contradictory meth od?, .'dr. Wilson undoubtedly knew that the American people needed more lessons than the Lusitania, the Sussex an 1 Arabic cases furnished, lie knew human nature, and, know ing i:, sirived with all his might to keep this country at peace with a p eminent which he later has de nounced in word. that will live as long as time, Shakespeare and the Bible. They are written in history now, but tiie American people had to be con vinced tf tli j utter ruthless nature of the- Kohenzollerns. There was little prepare Incvs sentiment before the I.usitani.i ita.-id.ent; pacifist America, in .-pile oi" tiie warnings of men like ''"''""il i;u...uU, did not want to a'.i!.d'H (iieam. if tiie president could have swung tiie Am n peojile to his side with a d. duration of war when the Lus itania went down, the situation would im U-ui better for the world. Of thai tin i is no doubt. But the u: aru i, idi'ns of sincere pacifists sup; (ilia;-: tin; government now who v. o'i!d rot. I.a.'e .supported it until ihry w-.i'u convinced that war was tho only recourse left. Germany's promises which later have been de clared by German agents not to have been pomises at all held the Unit ed Stales back until the crowd in Berlin was ready to throw off the mask and proceed with the subma rine campaign against all men and all countries alike. The Ji'jcord does not claim to have an much sense us some people or to be a.s well informed, but it has weighed every consideration that has been presented since tho world war began, it has considered all the ele ments in our population, and it is convinced that President Wilson took the fateful step at the time when the American people as a whole were ready to back the country with their men and money. And any war in which the people are not in favor of must be waged by an autocratic government, like Austria-IIungarj or Germany or Turkey. KcCLURE TABOO James H. Pou and Governor Bick ett deserve thanks for putting Presi dent Graham of the university wise to the fact that S. S. McLure, once noted publicist, is not the sort of American to deliver lectures at that institution, and a contract with him, according to the Raleigh correspon dent of the Greensboro News, has been cancelled, albeit McClure will receive the hundred dollars stipulated in the agreement. Published documents of German in trigue some time ago mentioned Mc Clure's name, but even before this revelation, the publisher had shown his Teutonism. He had made a trip to Germany and returned full of pro German sentiments a fact that the Record did not overlook in its scan ning of the political horizon. Readers of this paper may recall our com ment on the occasion of another visit of McClure's to the university. McClure may be honest, but he has a turn of mind, if that is so, which is different from other Americans who visited- Germany. They could not praise the murder of Belgian ci vilians, the carrying into slavery of French and Belgian girls and the thousands of horrible crimes of in dividual French women. MR. STROUP QUITS Mr. W. S. Stroup, Republican coun ty commissioner, paid up for the Record in full today because he didn't like for us to be fooling with poli tics, and stopped the paper. We are truly glad of it. A man of Mr. Stroup's calibre has no business pay ing out good money for a newspaper, and if there are any more like him in this community, we will keep our of fice open until two minutes past six so that we can accommodate them.

France wras surrounded by a ring of enemies, Russia has strong friends. France was bankrupt and her peo ple hungry, Russia is not and the allies are giving her aid. All Rus sia needs, it seems, is a leader with a big idea. Some people hoped Kor niloff was the man. Whoever he is, he must be a military man and must be prepared to dictate. Russia cannot enjoy freedom now. M KTII0D1ST CONFERENCE Hickory extends a welcome to th4 fifty-ninth session of the annual con ference of the .Methodist Episcopal church, which is meeting with Hart el .Memorial church here this week. The coiored people without regard to denominations will receive the dele gation into their homes and the whole population, white and colored, will wish for the spiritual guidance of Bishop Hughes and those who will re ceive their inspiration from him. The colored ministers are doing an in valuable work among their people, and the conference here will be of inestimable help to them in overcom ing the difficulties that confront all leaders of Christianity. Railroad earnings were less last month than they were for the same month last year, a point which the railroad managers will stress when they come up before the interstate commerce commission and ask for an increase in freight rates. It is only a few years, however, until the government will own the railroads, and persons owning securities should not worry much. China has lodged a protest against the agreement between Japan and the United States over the eastern question, but Americans will be un able to side with the Chinese in any controversy they may cause. Fact is, we want as much peace on earth as possible, especially after the world war ends. Banker George Holdemess of Tar- boro has 400 hogs to kill this winter and we take it that Edgecombe county farmers, seeing what this city feller is doing, will bestir them selves. In the cotton country they have not been paying much atten tion to hogs and hominy. If there was some way of extract ing possum fat and utilizing it for cooking purposes, there would be lit tle worrying here over 28-cent lard. TK Glflff KTI HUH I 1 III HI ill HI 111 ' W IN 8 REELS.

A large 8x12 flag was purchased from the Van Dyke Shop and was to have been raised upon the main building, but almost insuperable difficulties in placing the staff f efeated the plan. Since then the flag has furnished the main decoration upon the stage of the auditorium. Yesterday the stu dents, led by Messrs Cline and Ritch ie, took the measure of the trees in near-by forests, and when a sixty foot poplar was found to pass up no claim for exemption, it was conscript ed into the service of the United States, via Lenoir College. When the pole was planted the bell was rung and the students turned out en masse to sing America as the colors reached the breeze. In chapel yes terday morning Dr. Longaker remind ed them that they had done a good piece of wrork, and that the colors were to float proudly and be lowered only for sunjaet and foul weatSher, and not even then, should they be under Ik ilsvS CHIROPRACTOR DR.
