THURSDAY. AUGUST 12. 19ir>.
The late Eastland tragedy in
Chicago river was so stupendous
that even the war was forgotten
for the time being. As to the
tragedy itself with the awful loss
" ? " - i i . i
oi me, tnere is pernaps uui one
sentiment, which is that it would
never have happened if some one
or more persons had not put
profit far above human life. It
is of course for the coroner's
jury and the Federal investigators
to determine what particular
persqn or persons are responsible,
and it is to be most ,
earnestly hoped that when the
guilty ones are discovered there
may be no whitewashing. That
has been too often the case in
times past. When the Iriquois
theatre disaster occurred in Chi
cago som& years ago, there was
great indignation and it was
conclusively shown that the managers
of the theatre were to
blame, but no punishment was
awarded them, and the same is
true as to many other disasters

Militiamen throughout tin
country are interested in th<
prospect ?of Congress passing
legislation at the next sessioi
in behalf of the National Guard.
With the active support of
President Wilson assured, it is
more than probable that Con
gress will not only provide for a
material increase in the strength
of the National Guard, but will
also make an appropriation to
compensate adequately tin
militiamen for their attendance
upon drills. National lawmakers
seem to have at last come to i
realization of the fact that how
over patriotic the average ciiizei
who is willing to enlist in tin
National Guard may be, it h
nothing short of imposition to
< xpcct him to sacrifice liis personal
interests wit h.tut com
pensatfon from the goven.mer
in o.'der that he may lor thg
neral good learn to be
soldier.
There is one const lution . b -tr
the weather this summer; it has
been so variable that as a topic

use it without wearing it threadbare,
and that is something that
cannot be done where the wi ather
is of even quality from day to
day. It is a grand thing to
count up one's mercies and advantages.
The European governments
now at war are cheerfully piling
up debts for posterity to pay, if
it ever will. Perhaps those
governments feel that if their
predecessors incurred debts for
this generation to pay, they are
justified in following the ex-j
ample set. What future gen- j
erations may say gives them no
concern.
. There is good prospect that the
controversy between this nation
and Germany may be settled
some time during the next three
years. It would be Hazardous
to make any other guess.
The best price offered for cotton
on the local market today is
83-4 cents.

Barn and Nules Burned.
Report reached Fort Mill yes- e
terday about noon of the burning v
early in the morning of the barn s
and mules of Mr. Walter Kim- h
brell, a farmer living in the 0
Concord section of the county. a
The barn was fired by lightning b
during a storm. it could not'
be learned whether Mr. Kimbrell ^ i:
lost anything more than the barn *
and_mules. It was also reported '?
that the old Plexico mill, in the ^
adjoining section of Clay Hill, t
was struck and fired by light- fi
ning during the same storm and
was reduced to ashes. \
Mr. Kimbrell is a son of Mrs. I

Can Have Three-Teacher School. *
A
Trustees of the Gold Hill school
have received from the State ^
superintendent of education the
following self explanatory note: 11
"The reports from Bethany,
Gold Hill and Mt. Holly have
just been read.
"For the session 1913-14,
Bethany reported an enrollment
of 87 with an average attendance
of 63. This report for
1914-15 places the enrollment at
93 and the average attendance
at 77. I am glad to see that
these figures insure the status
required for a three-teacher
rural graded school. Conditions
at Bethany for the session 11)1516
ought to be more satisfactory
than ever before.
"The Gold Hill community has
the opportunity of maintaining
a strong three-teacher school.
It is a pleasure to note that all
the difficulties formerly operating
against this school have
oeen completely adjusted.".
OUR STAND.
By B. C. B.
Editor Times: We have beeft
criticised very bitterly in regard
.0 some of our "war" views and
would appreciate very much your
consent to print the following:
Let us say in the beginning,
.ve are not exponents of *ar,
>ul a Ivocates of peace. No, we
lon't want war, for "war is
icil," but we do admire the Gernan
spirit that supports their
government solidly against a
foreign foe?counts not the odds
?and who is there with soul so
dead who does not?
The German white soldiers
light for their country. The
.iybrid troops of England fight
or a day's pay. The patriot will
vin over the mercinary. No, we
lo not want war; neither do we
.vant peace at the price of star/aiion
and national dishonor.
No man has a right to condemn
is for taking sides w ith Germany
icainst England It' nxpiixe \vm?
needed, here it is: Germany s
.1 European coi.n ry, peopled ei.irely
by while people. In art,
music, science, letters, finance,
c mmeice, industiialism, agrcultjre,
etc., it is admittedly tie
foremost country ot the eniirt
world?the highest point in civilization
ever reached l>y any age
of man. In all these respects it
st.ihds head and shoulders above
those who today are striking at
icr vitals. England is entirely
lifferent. Her possessioi s, great
ind small, exist in every clime,
'order every sea, and are com>osed
of every known species of
man of all races, sub-races, of
mixed breeds, all religious sect ,
and of all degrees of civilization,
barbarism and savagery. All
these different races and conditions
of men are found within
the British empire, and each exercising
a certain amount of influence
which must be reckoned
with when dealing with the
whole. The German empire in
its entirety renresents the hitrh
est type of civilization and pure
Caucasian blood. The higher civilization
and Caucasian blood of
the British Isles, Canada, Australia.
New Zealand and South
Africa is largely counterbalanced
by the Mongrel hordes of Asia. 1
Africa and the islands of the
seven seas which constitute the
vast majority of the British empire
and serve to reduce civilization
to a minimum average. We
have chosen the best.

MAKES YOU SICI
"Godson's Liver Tom" Is Harmless To
Clean Your Sluggish Liver
and Bowels.
Ugh! Calomel makes you sick. It's
horrible! 'Jake a dose of the dangerous
drug tonight and tomorrow you may lose
n day's work.
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that awful
nausea'and cramping. If you are slug
and "all knocked out,** if your
iver is torpid and bowels constipated ,
or you have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour,
just try a spoonful of harmless Dodson's
Liver Tone tonight on uiy guarantee.

store and get a 50 cent bottle of Godson's
Liver Tone. Take a spoonful and
if it doesn't straighten you right up
and make you feel fine and vigorous I

is destroying the sale of calomel because
it is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable,
therefore it can not salivate or
make you sick. ?-?

liver to work and clean your lK>wels of "~"
that sour bile and constipated waste
which is clogging your system and making

keep your entire family feeling tine for
months. Give it to your children. It id
harmless; doesn't gripe and they like its
pleasant taste.
