"NIGHT, OR RUSSIA " Casting liis troubled glance over the bjootly fields o Quatre Bras, near the end of the second day of the Hattle of Waterloo, the "Iron Duke" raised bis eyes to the lowering skies and made his famous remark, "Night or JJlucher." Now, a century later the same remark can be made, but this time paraphrased to, "Night or liussiu." Struggling desperately against the fierce tide of the Kaiser's armies the allies are hard beset. If defeated their hope lies in the hosts of the Czar's myrmidons pouring over the Prussian frontiers. The Slav, once the terror of Western Kurope, prom ises to become the saviour of the Western eitidels. PUMPKIN PIE'S POTENTIALITIES A pumpkin pie, invested with all the glorious qualities of pastry, filling and flavor, came into the commissary yesterday, with the compliments of a IIouston-lToosier sulVraget. Jf such pumpkin pies as this could be put into general circulation, there would be no need of ballots. .Mankind would lie too civilized to need governments. Much of the discord and misery in the world today is due to ignorance of pumpkin pie. Houston Post. "GREAT MINDS" DIFFER Iu one of his sermons of the Tabernacle in this city recently Evangelist Ham severely denounced modern dances and devotees of the dance.

Bourbon News. GRANT'S UNION SUJT A little girl was reading a composition of her own on "Grants Work in the Civil War."

This country can be thankful that nothing more vital than its treasury balance is failing. WILSON TO BE lPlO GOAT It has been announced from Washington, almost officially, that Woodrow Wilson is a receptive candidate for a renomination. These words are modesty personified. He is not only a receptive candidate but an abso lute necessity. He has framed and dictated legis lation and by the results he must stand. To think of another Democrat would be a repudiation of two years of arduous work by the President. Ho has been conservative and has handled for eign situations with judgment. But from a business standpoint he has been a colossal failure, lie rep resents business conditions. He has been the creator, the promoter of idleness. In times past every National administration has had to stand sponsor for the times. Woodrow Wilson is iu that class. It will not answer to charge the depression to the war in Europe. It was here and strongly in evidence before the cannon's roar in Belgium and Prance. The war has accentuated the gravity of idle shops and quiet wheels and for that Woodrow Wilson must stand. He is a receptive candidate and an absolute cer tainty as the flag bearer of Democracy. And the Republicans under one flag will beat him, as (he Colonel once said, to a frazzle. Commercial Tribune. f THEN WHAT? It became evident that the Interstate Commerce Commission could not effectively regulate the rail roads. Whereupon a commission of Regulation was created to regulate the regulators. The defects in this body were later remedied by the inaugur ation of a Super-commission to regulate the regu lators of the railroad regulators and so on until everybody was so busy regulating everybody else that there were no railroads left to regulate. AMERICAN CHEESE Imported cheese will be scarce while this war lasts, but plenty of -good cheese is made in this country. Americans have never consumed as much cheese as they should have, yet it is one of the cheapest and most nutritious food products avail able. Foreign cooks have taught New Yorkers its value, but few Americans outside this city know how extensively it is use1 in cooking and as a condiment. New York Commercial.
