Xaiurally Danville is a little chesty over j iiie enthusiastic opening of the tobacco mar- , ket in thai city.

We all know that Knglish. ! as it is written and spoken to-day is com posite. We ".now that the v. ords of tho ancient Briton yielded to the more virile expressions of the Saxon, that the Roman . occupation grafted on what resulted thou sands of duplicate expressions, that after I the coming of William the Conqueror in I 1066 Norman French became the language of courts and chivalry, and in the course ?>{ centuries blended with and refined all that | the English people had already received. . sinco then additions have come from overv source, and to-day the experienced headline writer is never at a loss for a synonym. Rut the great change is about to take place. I Millions of Rritish and American soldiers ar-s I in Fuance to-Ja.v. Many more will be there. | There is constant communication between the i I'rench and the men of the English-spcnUin:.; ! nations. Their lives are closely knit to gether. There is daily exchange of thoughts. It is inevitable thai the representatives oi the different races will gradually become ac customed to and use interchangeably the words of both languages. As a result, both French and E\*;lish will be enriched and the expression of ideas facilitated. Naturally, there will follow a literary revival such as the world has never known. I _ (inrniany Has Not Rc^cn Invaded, Rm? IT has been the sto-k argument of the Ger man militarists I hat. in spite of four years of "defensive" warfare, the enemy has iut f reached the soil of Germany; that her cities have not been wrecked, her fields have no', been overrun sind her people have been spared the actual horrors of war by the incomparable valor of the German armies. This is true perhaps, if the Russian invasion of East Prussia and the French invasion of Alsace ate excluded, but when the German govern ment tells its people tliat their country has been unscathed by war. it must know that i' is not believed. Every dispatch from a neutral country teli." its own story of German suffering. The Ger man press, breaking through the censorship wall, details the privations of the people. It. reminds those people that they are without sufficient food; that they have nothing with which to clothe themselves; that they are victims of disease, and that they have been oppressed, even ruined, by eonllscatoiy taxa tion. Vainly the government is seeking to holster up their courage, the German news papers add. hut this is easier undertaken than accomplished at a time when Germany's armies are retreating before the. enemy, when defeat is admitted by the high command itself and when ground gained at a terrifying cost of life is surrendered. As long as the German armies were ad vancing; as long as they were moving deter minedly toward Paris and the channel. :t was possible perhaps to keep the. German nation buoyed tip with hope. There was the prospect of a victorious peace. There was the prospect, of a decision that would force the allies to pay Germany for the sacri fices which her government compelled her to make There was the prospect of world dominion and of a future of glorious possi bilities. Rut when the German armies ceased to ad vance; when, after being fought to a stand rtill, the allies turned upon these armies an 1 succeeded in driving them backward, th? confident prospects faded. In their place has come the realization that the great German v?ir machine is not unconquerable; that it cannot hold its own apaitist the ever-increas ing pressure of (he enemy, and that the forces of Great Rritaiu and France, re i-nlorccd by ;i single American army corps, have achieved two signal victories in one mont h. It is no wonder thai the German nation is reeling. It is no wonder that men and women everywhere are asking each other it I heir fate is not sealed. German soil has not been invaded, it is true, but the state ? ?f panic which has seized the cities 011 thu Kerne show?, that the Rhenish people foresee the day when such an invasion will come. They find German engineers strengthening ;hc defenses inside their frontiers, defenses which the German government proposed their people would novcr see assailed. lite N'c.vt Liberty I.oan JT 1 j-carcely necessary to remind the Atneri I <;tn people that they must soon absorb ati ? i her war loan; that they must he prepared to go deeper into their pockets than they .:\e o\cr gone b ifore. and that they should s dorsinnd that this loan is not the last, nor ext to the last. I Hit it might bo in order to emind them that the lines must he laid :,rl.v if this loan is to be a success. The h I ani/at ion* through which the government ii;l;es its :jt must he pot into motion at ?:,.e, and the nun with money, whether <>;* . amount.-. or small, must begin figuring it on< <? upon i In* maximum amount of their ub-eript ions. The Treasury Department has announced hat (In- loan drive will begin Saturday, Sop t'liiher l's. and that it will continue for t !< ? week.-. but it ha:> not given us the ?\j.cl amount of the total which must be ulncribed. In a genera! way, however, this iniount will he between >f?.000.o00,00u ami w.oOu.O'Hi.Otni, probably ?t'?.U 00,000,0 00. ? his is an enormous sum of money. It is far snore than any previous loan. It is almost t.ouble any of the earlier issue:, and it would tagger any other country than America. Hut i! should be remembered thai it is less than the total amount of the last loan ami the total amount of taxes paid at the , time that lo. n was being floated. More than v !?,000.00o.00U in taxation fell due almost on the day the third bond sale was projected. And it was paid without militating in any i >< rse against the loan. The American people i ad enough money in hand to meet their war sa> obligations and enough to oversubscribe tlifir loan at t" ? same time. There will be no taxes to pay immediately hi tore or immediately after the fourth loan. i.v< ry doilar which is contributed to the gov ernment during the three-week period begin ning September -8 will be an investment with the best security uii earth. 10very dollar laid down will bear interest at the rate of 1 1-t per cent. There is no direct return upon taxes that are paid. That money is gone never to return. A government bond is merely the government's promise to pay so much money at a given time, with interest in the meanwhile. That the new loan will he subscribed goes v.ithoui. saying. Loaning money to the gov ernment. is the smallest contribution any man i an make toward the success of the war. hut the success of this drive cannot be as mred unless the country provides in advance to absorb it. Kvery man with two dollars in his pocket must resolve to set one aside for bonds. Kvery family must realize that its earnings must be divided. There is no other way to meet the financial obligation which the government has contracted. It is probably dawning upon the German soldiers and some of the minor ofliccrs that ihey have too many crown princes. The weather has also had some deterrent effort upon the bootleggers. Thin is a tougn teason for working on the roads. SEEN ON THE SIDE n\ IICMI) UUWAI'.U WAK.NKIl A Itnrjil \ rnrnliiR. . ?

Itoth syndicalism and the I. W. W. propose to do away with capitalism by wrecking the present order, in order to build on tbe ruins the proposed new society. They refuse to enter into any trade contracts, holding themselves iree to strike at any time without no tire, when such action will inflict the greatest possible injury on the em ployer. Tbe tactics used arc deter mined solely by success. "The inten tion of right and wrong does not con cern U!i." They seise on the time of rush or ders to strike. When a strike is !'??* they return to work and take reventi-' by wrecking mm hin'-ry. ruining good or any other Kind of sabotnge that will in 11 let the greatest loss on th.> emplo yer.
