tary Service.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star
BERLIN. July q. 1910.
A subtle propaganda to make the Ger
man army disloyal is being carried on by
the socialist party.
In a recent confidential report the
minister of war declared to the imperial
government that he could not maintain
military efficiency unless energetic steps
we're taken to stop the activities OF the
socialists among the young men of the
country before they join the army. This
subject is at present being widely dis
cussed.
Every young man in Germany in the
ordinary course OF events becomes a
soldier. This universal service has been
a great obstacle to the socialists, as the
army is the last line Of defense against
the growing socialist .orces, and is the
most powerful corrective of the anarchi-
cal teachings of the socialists.
Plan Being Pursued
The socialists have therefore decided
that their movement is failure unless
they can permeate the army with their
doctrines. Discovery. however, would
lead to punishment for high treason, and
efforts in this direction are limited. 1t
is necessary, therefore. to get hold of the
youths before they join the army at the
average age of nineteen.
But here. again. another difficulty con-
fronts the socialist party. because the
law of the land prohibits any person
under twenty-one years of age from
joining any political association or from
participating in any political movement.
The. propaganda among the youths of the
country. must, therefore, be carried on
under a certain disguise, and this dis
gIise is provided by continuation schools
ostensibly founded for the purpose OF
allowing intelligent boys who have left
school. and who have begun to earn
their own living, to increase their knowl-
edge during the evening hours.
These schools, which cannot be legally
suppressed, are in reality hotbeds OF
socialism, where the propaganda is car
ried on quietly and secretly. and In such
a way as to evade the law. Through
these schools young Germans are taught
to abhor authority and discipline and
miiitarism and to accept the doctrines
of socialism. and the result is that when
they enter the army they are, to large
extent spoiled from the point of view
of their commanding officers.

Sengers of the Hamburg-American line
steamship Oceana, which is on a pleasure
cruise to Iceland and Spitzbergen. The
captain of the vessel. telegraphing to the
London Office of. the company from Ham
merfest, reported that July II the vesse
arrived in sight of the island of Jar
Mayen. which. SO far as can be discover
ed, has never been seen by a passenger
steamer before.
The island. as the vessel approached.
was seen to consist of nothing but a
huge and beautiful glacier, but, owing to
the extraordinarily clear atmosphere pre-
vailing at the time, every outline of the
vast mass of ice and snow was clearly
visible. The steamer proceeded to within
a mile Of the shore. and the passengers
gazed on the wonderful sight till the
place faded away in the distance.
Seen by Lord Dufferin.
1t is more than half century since the
island was last seen, and on that &C.
casion Lord Dufferin, who was cruising
in those parts in his yacht landed on the
glacial ice and subsequently referred to
the matter in his Letters from High
Latitudes.'' His lordship had to land in
small boat. The island is invariably
.enveloped in thick fog and is eff
fectually concealed that, although the
Hamburg American line steamers have
passed in its neighborhood for the last
twenty-five years, nobody on board ever
has seen it.
Owing to the exceptionally dry state
of the weather locally of late. the atmOs-

night at the Arlington and reelected
three members of the executive commit

Program Closely Followed.
The races were run off without a hitch,
so carefully had the arrangements been
made by both the National association
committeeman and the local committee.
Precisely at 3 o'clock the first race, that
for intermediate tours. was sent away
down the broad course. and the last race
was over shortly after o'clock.
While the conditions under which the
races were rowed were comfortable for
the spectators. they were not fast for
the oarsmen. No records were broken.
There was a breeze blowing up the
course all the afternoon. While not strong
enough to make the water really rough,
II handicapped the OafSmen ana maze

The sun was under a cloud most of the
time. 1t was not uncomfortably warm
for the oarsmen.
Potomacs Put Up Good Race.
The big event of the day so far as
Washington was concerned, and, in fact,
the prettiest race, was that between the
jS,1ior Fights. Showing wonderful pluck
and rowing in excellent form, the Poto-
mae Junior eight gave the Detroit team
a splendid race and were only beaten out
by little over a length.
For the first part of the course the
Potomacs and Detroits We're almost bow
and bow. At the half-mle point the
Potomac crew forged slowly ahead until
they Tapped their opponents about quar-
ter of a length.
Both crews were rowing about thirty
four to thirty-six, and getting all they
could out of it. But the Detroit boys had
up their sleeve when they en-
tered the last quarter of mile.
They spurted and almost instantly be-
gan to draw away from the PotOmacS,
with long powerful strokes. The Detroit
crew had been coached by Vivian Nick

Producing Power Is Basis of Value.

Years ago the agricultural editor or
the Farmer, talking at an institute, when
farm values were low, said: Men OF
Maine what difference does it make
whether you could sell your farms for
more or less than first cost? IT does not
add to or take from the producing power
of the land This is the real measure OF
value You want a home. You want
farm And il you have these comforta-
BILE and productive, il makes no difference
to YOU what the selling price would be.
for YOU don't want 10 sell. What was
true twenty-five years ago today is true
today.
The farmer owning a good farm AMI
buildings in good community don't
want to SELL for selling means far more
than the possible profit on the purchase
Selling covers the breaking OF all nome
and neighborhood ties. the wiping out OF
all the tender associations So dear 70

means the casting of ones lot among
strangers at a period when new friend
ships are not easily made and o!d-tme
influence can never be regained.
Changes there are which are neces-
sary and inevita BILE. Death. age, the out
going Of children, poor location and
the failure TO make good are some OF the
necessary causes but today these are the
exception in many cases. and the desire
for the extra dollar dominates 1t is
this spirit which is to be deplored when II
touches the point where il invades the
home and prompts the disposal Of the
farm just for gain. Rural life in the
past has been potential because OF Its
stability. That power must be surren-
dered when a man moves twelve times in
five years, as in one case. though he
adds to his bank account with each trans
fer. This is speculation, and that never
promoted fxedness of purpose or love or
home. 1t is against the evil, not the
necessary changes we would plead for
in long life on the land. With the land
there will surely come a sense of COM
