The book is carefully edited and only facts were placed in it. The fol lowing extracts arc from it, the quotations beinir credited to the Ger man emperor and his leaders: "As soon as you come to blows with the enemy he will be beaten. No mercy will be shown! No prison ers will be taken! As the Huns under Kins: Attua, made a name for themselves, which is stil miirhty in traditions and legends to day, may the name of German be so fixed in China by your deeds, that no Chinese shall ever apain dare to look at a German askance Open the way for Kultur once for all. Prom the kaisers speech to the soldiers on the eve of their depar ture for China in 1900. "Whenever a national war breaks out, terrorism Decomes a necessary military principle." General von Hartmann. "The city of Brussels, exclusive of its suburbs, has been punished by an additional fine of 5,000,000 franc3 on account of the attack made un- on a German soldier by Ryckere, one of its police officials."' Baron von Luettwitz, Governor of Brus eels. "One cannot make war in a sen timental fashion. Tho more piti less the conduct of the war. the more humane it is in reality for it wm run its course all the sooner." General Von Bernhardi. "The innocent must suffer with the guilty . . .All this must not in our eyes weigh as much as the lire of a smile one of our brave sol diers tho ricrhteous accomplishment oi duty is the emanation of a hiirh Kultur, and in that the population oi tno enemy countries can learn a lesson from our armies." General Von Kissing. It will be observed that the men speaking are not mere non,enities. They arc Prussian leaders. They are to Germany what President Wil son and '.is appointees are to th United .states, or what any presi dent would he to tho United States They represent German Kultur and one is able to form an idea of what it is by reading what it does. , FIND THE FACTS If Secretary Baker or high army officers or both have not been run ning the war department properly, tho public should know the facts The American people are not inter ested now a3 to whether Mr. Baker is a Democrat or a Republican: what they want to know is that he U providing the army of new sol diers with rifles and other equip ment as promptly as possible, thai nothing is left undone to make the American army effective. This is the one consideration. Tho army courtmartial of the 63 negro infantrymen arrested in con flection with the Houston, Texas, riot was a3 effective a3 any trial by jury possibly could be, and there is no doubt that the real offenders were punished. Army discipline doc3 not recognize color, and that's ona good point in favor of its trials. Farm products this year are val ued at $21,000,000,000, a figure that no mere man can grasp. It am ounts to hundreds of extra dollars In the pockets of hustling farmers and thoso who haven't laid up a little for rainy days and Liberty Bond surely have themselves to blame. General Byng'3 men are camping in the llindenburg line at any rate. J Probably John T. Dooling, assis tant district attorney of New York, handled Gaston B. Means rather roughly, but that is no reason for all the prejudice against the state. If Mr. Dooling had taken a- small part in the trial, it would have been said that those Yankees came down here with cock and bull evi dence, but when it came to the scratch, were afraid to put it oa. The lawyers for Means would have made the most of their opportuni ties in any event, and we very much fear that the same atmosphere would have been created in any oth er county in North Carolina. The state has not proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Means shot Mrs. King. The poor, deluded wo man is dead, like dead men, tell no tales. She was mighty good to Mean s, however, as long as her mon ey lasted, and that is a point that Cabarrus county jury cannot keep from mind. We cannot tell what effect the ev idence is having on the minds of the jurors, but we do know the 'rial is affecting the state. Everybody wishes that if Mrs.! King had to die by a 25 calibre uitomatic Colts pistol), Mr. Moans would have selected a New York or Chicago suburb for the target practice. Tho Record welcomes Mr. F. A. ate of Lincolnton as the new ov.n r of the Times-Mercury. The Roc rd has found living in the same own with its neighbor agreeable and pleasant, and is has nothing but best wishes for Mr. J. O. Berkley, the retiring editor, and Mr. Slate, who will succeed him. If we were dead set on defeat :ng the Germans, we don't think we should be publishing something all the time to make our readers dissat isfied all the time. j Special Pastime Thursday Dec. 13 FLORENCE REED in "The Woman's Law" A GOLD ROOSTER PLAY IN 5 PARTS Special at Pastime Today ETHEL BARRYMORE in "LIFE'S WHIRLPOOL" Special Music Tonight -:- Admission 5c and 15c 3 Professional Cards i 8 ft a Di W.

Paris, Dec. 12. iSlices of bread found on board the Zeppelin brought doiwn; at Bournonne-les-Bains were shown at a meeting of the academy of agriculture. Some were grey in color, and covered with lard, these were for the men on board. The ofTucers had bread much whiter and honey spread on it. The officers' bread contained ten per cent of Ja va rice which, it was stated, must have reached Germany through Holland. a quarrel over a young woman. With the fear of the law on him, he tells his wife all and she, in an attempt to save him, starts for the of lice of her friend, District Attorney John Kent. On the way she comes upon the living double of her hus band, a stranger, sitting on a park bench, his mind stunned by a ter rific shock. She takes the unre sisting man to her home, and tell ing her husband to flee, substitutes the stranger for her husband to the District Attorney. The man is com mitted to an asylum, from which, later he is released, and goes to live at the Orcutt home. He can not remember who he is, and takes it for granted that he is George Orcutt. Wiiat he cannot under stand is his "wife's" evident cold ness tow Bamsks NerwrasBes Puts Vigor and Am iticn in to Run-Down, Tired Out People.
