MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news credited to it or not ereditcd in this paper and also tho local news published herein. MONDAY, NOV. 2(5, 1917 REPUBLICAN GATHERING Tho gathering of Republicans here tonight and tomorrow is an event of more than local importance. Lea ders will be hero not only from the four congressional districts of the western half of the state, but from various parts of the union, and the object of the meeting of course, is to devise ways and moans of tak ing the oilicos from the Democrats. The calling of the meeting in Hickory, one of the important towns of the ninth district, may b of unusual significance, in view of certain political possibilities which the blind almost are able to see. It probably means a drive against Representative Webb, and if that is the case wo may naturally look for some signs in the meeting that will show in which direction the current is running. It is not unlikely that the gathering will give voice to lus ty Americanism, which just now im plies more than yelling for the flag, but scoring the evil powers that brought the world to so tragic a pass. Regardless of tho significance of the meeting, the Record welcomes the visitors and hopes that their stay hero will be pleasant and profitable. The Record realizes that the Republicans and Democrats have the right to make a drive for the offices, and it is interested in the proceedings here. While it is worth little to seek parallels in considering Russian conditions just now, it may be worth while to observe that ihe Russian government, so far as we know, has swung to the right side in the one other great war in which the destiny of the world was at is sue. An alliance was formed- tem porarily with Napoljon, but it did not last and then the Russians gave the Little Corporal the blow tli'it set all Europe again on his heels. Napoleon was a mvnace and as such was recogni.l by czar and people. Emperor William is a menace to Russia and all the scheming of tho pro-Germans in Petrograd and Mos cow cannot make tho bolsheviki government stand up once the country is convinced that Lcnine and Trotssky are traitors, working In the interest of the central pow ers. The conservative and think ing elements in the population will seize power, and the bolsheviki will yet fall ingloriously. It is not sub stantial, it is destructive and not constructive. One of these days, whether it is a month or a year, the Russian peo ple will drive the bolsheviki from authority, and place Russia .again in the war. Whether that coun try will bo able to help the allies much in the fighting is another ques tion, but it will revent Germany from drawing supplies from that country. Russia was bound to have an orgy. Tho country will survive it and men of character and force will obtain the reins of government. Russia will bo of very little comfort to Germany in a few months at least. Homer L. Ferguson, president of the Newport News Shipbuilding Company, is not a son of Judge Garland S. Ferguson, as some of the Washington correspondents have it, though he is a nephew of the judge . The young man is an Annapolis product. He is a native of Way nesville, is a brother of Col. Har ley B. Ferguson, in charge of the engineers at Camp Sevier, and what is more interesting to Hickory folks Is a brother of Mrs. A. A. Shuford, Jr. He has declined to accept a position a3 assistant In the construction of ships for the ship ping board. A FARMER'S WAR Agricultural exports this year will amount to about $10,000,000300, which is about three times as much as in 1909. The freedom of the seas also mean the freedom of the farmer, for if the United States had laid down before the German threat, and the U-boat had been al-, lowed to blockade our coasts, eggs would be selling for seven cents a dozen, wheat for 60 cents a bushel and the bumper corn crop would be worth scarcely anything. The United States did not enter the war to protect its commerce, but an incident of the decision to fight for human rights is a vast pros perity for the farmers. Instead of farmers in this war should be and undoubtedly is, as great as that of any other class of men. And this paper is confident that with the next issue of Liberty bonds the great majority of farmers will follow the lead of a smaller num ber who saw their duty from the first and subscribe liberally to the issue. This is a war for the free dom of the farmer, whatever else it might be. One of Uncle Sam's youngest sail ors was in the Record oflice Sat urday to ask this paper to cooperate in the work of securing recruits and the edito4 talked with him about the navy and its secretary. The youngster said what they all say now, that Mr. Daniels is the best secretary the navy ever had. Th; joungster likes the service. lie had met Mr. Daniels too. He was standing on a corner in Greensboro several days ago when a lady came up to him and. introduced herself a Mrs. Daniels. He may forget a lot of things, but he will never for get the kindly consideration shown for one of the least of Uncle Sam's fighters. oE2CE23usaEDQ22EEDccfficnanniaacocnacnnnoDDnDn a El a u a D a El ci EJ d E3 13 n 23 3 a a 13 a a a a a a E3 a n m LI m vs Special at Pastime D This Afternoon and Tonight MOLLIE KING in "MYSTERY OF THE DOUBLE CROSS" Episode Number 13 Also HEARST-PATHE NEWS and A GOOD COMEDY Regular Admission 5 and 15 cts. a a a u a a a a 1 a a a If the Record doesn't find a few old friends among that big bunch of Reublicans who will be here to morrow, it will be terribly dissa-pointed. The supply of Irish potatoes, both in the United States and in Eng land, is far beyond the needs of the people for the next several months, it is stated, but the price keep3 right up. When the farmers of the east and west begin to unload, however, a break will come. It is a line thing for Hickory peo ple to contribute to the support of the war, but we must not forget the unfortunate whom we have with us always. Their sufferings this winter must be alleviated, and our folks probably will be called on to do more than ever. The Record was by no means cer tain that the U-boat menace had been overcome, and the figures last week were convincing that the dan ger is always real if not so appar ent. The submarines will not win the war, but they will destroy a lot of ships. American naval officers cannot re ceive decorations from the Brit ish government for bravery, an ola law standing in the way, but they can have their names cited for merit. That's as good. The first of the steel ships con structed under direction of the ship ping board has been launched on the Pacific coast and this will be fol lowed by many others. In a few months there will be an appreciable increaso in world tonnage. LVnuv District Attorney Holton who will be here for the Repnubli can meeting, might be able to rake up a few old acquaintances if he would go into the highways a bit. Hickory's fuel situation is not as bad as conditions are reported in some other places, but unless the railroads can haul coal, it will be fierce later in the winter. Tho Literary Digest last week car ried a big tank on its front page, getting there with it almost as quick as the dailies too. About the time the bolsheviki go up against the German peace com missioners, they will learn who is looney now. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNERS To J. S. Leonard, H. S. Leonard, W. A.
