IN SAD ENOUGH PLIGHT
(Charlotte Observer)
The fate of the kaiser-as-was is
about .is hard as his bitterest foes
could have desired. While some of
the allied countries might have been
concerned lest he be not sufficiently
guarded to prevent escape and return
to Germany, the concern of Mr. Ho
henzollern himself is that he might
not be guarded sufficiently close to
prevent any possibility of making es
cape from his asylum. There is no
country to which he might flee.
Should he make his appearance in
Germany it would be but to make
himself a target for pistol or bomb.
And unless he is closely guarded
there are assassins waiting the first
opportunity to get at him. The first
attempt of which the public has been
given any knowledge has come to
light. It was either a Belgian or a
German who got into the kaiser's
castle and made an unsuccessful at
tempt to kill him. So far as hoping
to get out among the people, it is
perhaps the former emperor's daily
prayer that the guard saround his
retreat should never for a moment
relax their vigilance. What would
seem to be his special care is not that
he should get out, but that none who
are out should get in.

In spite of the ratification talk that
has been heard, it is said that when
the "scratch" comes there Is no guar
antee that the Susan B, Anthony
amendment will be ratified.
Anti-suffragists are circulating lit
erature connecting the name of Fred
Douglas with the amendment. One
piece of literature being distributed
from headquarters in Raleigh is a
leaflet .bearing the picture of a negro
woman, a delegate to a Kentucky
Republican convention. Quotations
from the "Suffrage Bible" are also
being sent out and the antis .are
openly asserting that ratification by
North Carolina will be an insult to

State having voted rejection as fast

Thousands of sweet potato plants

Every time we get out from home
some one is trying to solve that little

Some get 10 for the answer, some
40-, and one boy says it is just 40,
