Men fought desperately, of course, and some were killed. But there was much more prancing and foraging, singing and fenciog, than bloody, business-like killing. And many a battle in the old days represented leas loss of life and property than the sinking of the Maine. With the advancement ef civiliza- tion warfare has become something different. It is now, as between leading nations, a contest of colossal engineers and desperate dyaamiters. There is no more of the hilt-to-bilt struggle, steels flashing and glancing from buroished armor, battle ories ringing above the din of conflict. War now meens floating fortresses standing miles away from each other and with vast machines hurling tons of metal at each other at a cost of $2,000 per shot It means the in- sidious approach of a submarine tor- pedo to a great battleship, a fright- ful crash and the instant death of a thousand sleeping sailors. Modern war is engineering applied to the problem of destroying as much life and labor in a short time ag posribls. Dynamite, steam and elabor ite calculations have replaced clear «yes, strong arms and brave hearts. Scientifically, the change is a vast improvement in that the mod- ern system is incaleulably more ef- fective Morally also it is an im- provement because it has sobered the people and made them more deliberate about going to war. Abore all, it has insured the triumph of reason and industry over reckless swashbuckling. “Many stalwart and thoughtful democrats in all parts of the county have been urging ths Hon. W. H. Davis to again forego the joys of private life and serve the county in the legislature. They know that the 40th session will revise the laws and be the most important, perhaps, ia the history of the state, and that ex- perience and legislative acumen, such as he has shown will be at pre- mium when the work begins. They see to his credit many important lawe now in force, such as the origi- nal text-book law, the one reducing interest from ten to eight per cent, and the law prohibiting the sale of fraudulent commercial fertilizers, besides important amendments te our read, revenue and criminal laws. But most important and to the point was his thorough investigation of the subject of revision. The bill formu lated by him in the 37th assembly for that purpose received the hearty support of Judge Gantt, and such was the enthusiasm of ex attorney geners] McIntyre, that he of his own motion, prepared and delivered a masterly argument before the com- mittee in behalf of the bill, and the same measures became the basis of the committee bill, end the same subject at the Jast session. We hope he will consent tofeerve.” The aboye is taken from the Clin ton Eye. Mr. Davis isa brother of J. R. Davis, foreman of the Trues.
