A mail in Mississippi by the name!
of Taylor we saw from the paper the! ?
other day has ten sons and all of t:
them and himself have enlisted in; e
the war. And he has ten daughters ' p
and most of them the paper said have f<
enlisted as Red Cross nurses. That e
is the sort of patriotism to win the b
few more families like r
that would count very fast. f<
President Wilson wants congress tJ
to adjourn and go home so that the
members may tell the people wny a
this country is at war and explain the 5
war aims of the couDtry. Just as
"well. In war times we don't have

made enough money the past week to

lasted us the balance of our]
days in baying cotton. And we would
have made it much sooner than we
expected. But that is always the
case, the man with money is the man
who can make money, and the poov
fellow, without any must go on struggling
to the end. It has ever been
th&s and will be to the end of the
?&apter. And we have no regrets,
feeeause we know how to spend what)
we get, and we know some people
who hj?ve money and don't know how

lemity than to be poor.

influence. It would be a pretty cheap,
coagressman that would sell out at
any pricc, but groups that could be

bought for fifty tnousana woma noi
fce worth the buying. As to whether^
i
&&T of "those who voted against war
will he sent back or not time only'
oan reveal. As to whether they should
fee sent back or not or whether they'
i
should be kicked out of congress is
a matter of opinion and opinions vary.' I
Certainl/ we do not believe any of f
them was influenced in his vote by
Mr. Bernstorffs fifty thousand, and
it is a sort of bushwhacking proceed-'
ing to suggest that any of them -was
so influenced, and if any one has the
evidence that a congressman was ?o
influenced he is untrue to the people ?

the district of the congressman.
Re
. a'p4 not a true citizen of this country

he withholds the evidence. If lie j
is no such evidence it is cowardly j
> make the suggestion that any con- '
ressman's vote was so influenced.

In that same marked copy of the
Washington Times which we received
"e find the following:
''Government is not going to fix
he price of meat. Many thanks ror
hat. An announcement that beef
oust cost two and a half cents a
ound at the farms would be a signa*
or all butchers to raise the price sevn
and a half cents a pound at trie
utcher shop. Regulated price that
aises the retail cost is one of Uie
ew good jokes produced by this war;*
'And then this paragraph occurs in
tie same column:
"We fix a lcwer price for wheat,
nd people pay a higher price for
read. *
"We fix a lower price for coal, ana
le coal man says, "Bully for me. Ill
dd another dollar to the price." Is
lere any way, Mr. Hoover, gentleLan
of fireat efficiency, dictator of
le people's welfare, to put some of

Mr ?TOli*ra Jennings Bryan ia
