tariff reform, now that the verdict of the
country has gone heavily against them, afford q

Post few days after. the election said:
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a strong move
ment has started among. Democratic members
Of congress to restore sugar to the dutiable list
at the rate which prevailed under the Payne
tariff bill
:. It is probable that congress will do this at
the coming session, as the need of the $50, 000,-

Representative Korbly, ranking Democratic
member of the banking and currency commit

that sugar should be put hack on the dutiable

NEWSPAPER DAY EDITION.

The Star Bulletins special features for next
Saturday Newspaper Day-will be along in
formative as well as descriptive lines.
There will be some splendid descriptive ar
ticles dealing with various island features of
interest to visitors, but the main emphasis will
be put ON definite, authoritative information
about Hawaii-the kind Of information that
prospective travellers on the mainland expect
ing to make a trip Of some kind, will want to
know. The fame of Hawaii as group of
islands of great beauty and charm is already
spread abroad, but there is a lack of authori-
tative information as to conditions here as
they are of importance to the tourist. This in
formation will be supplied by the Star
Bulletin Promotion Edition.
Orders for this special edition should be sent
in at once 1t will be not only worth sending
away to your friends on the mainland, but will
be worth keeping.

PROFESSIONAL AND voLUNTEER
SOLDIERS,


Poultney Bigelow, author of The German
Struggle for Liberty calls attention to the
difference in the spirit Of the Prussian army
during the great war of independence cen
tul5 ag6 and that of the present day s Today,
he says the German officer is wholly pro-
fessional soldier, and of the commissioned
officer this is almost equally true. The soldier
and the citizen have ceased to feel that their
titles are interchangeable. a spirit Of caste
has come to permeate the great soldier class
the same spilt that led the Prussian army into
its disgraces after Jena. = The military results
achieved by patriotic citizens in the war Of
1913 may teach Americans a lesson, thinks Mr..
Bigelow. g It is surely not too much to ask
that each member of free Country should sur
render at least one month IN every year to
exercises which will qualify him to defend that
country in the event Of invasion. Our historical
traditions make us dislike standing armies, and
for that reason ought we the more readily to
adopt measures that shall in the moment of
danger make us nation in arms. =

EDITOR
THE ATRoCITY CHARGES.

/ As the Star Bulletin said when the war
started all sorts of atrocities would be charged
by each side against the other with little proof
anywhere. The result has proved the correct
ness of that statement Reliable newspaper
correspondents have failed to find wounded
German soldiers with their eyes gouged out by
the Belgfans, just as they have failed to find
Belgian boys with their hands cut off by the
Germans. Undoubtedly there have been iso-
lated instances of atrocities-men maddened
by combat are not always under self-control-
but most of the reported acts of heinous cruelty
have simply not happened. They are part of
the tissue of irresponsible exaggeration or
studied misinformation built up under the dras
tic censorship everywhere imposed
The correspondent of the Chicago Daily
News, after weeks of painstaking search along
the eastern frontier for authenticated instances
of cruelty, found few. His judgment is set
forth as follows:
What seems to me the most serious mistake a
made in the is that national leaders, who should
be cool and just have taken the committed
by army and held them up to the world proofs
of the barbarity of that armys nation 1t would be
as sensible to go to state pententiary and scath-
ingy denounce the sta for having criminals, de-
clarng that the lowest stratum in humanity which i
the prison represents, is the true people That lead
OF all OF the natlonS inVofYed THIS war nave
used atrocities national arguments is merely
proof Of the extent to which war upsets reason and
destroys calm Judgment. For these leaders must be
conscious Of the fact that atrocities will exist in
all armies until civilization has accomplished its
great task and produced people without hate
depravity
Whether not nation is of inferior ciyili-
cation TO another is question which accusation,
certainly atrocy accusations can never settle. For
who to Judge the inferiority of civilization in
such times these? Certainly could
judge the English by the crimes of their profess
sional army the Russians by their Cossacks,
the Belgians by their rowdies, the French and
Germans by their Idols or near idiots.
One of the really serious results of the ultra
military censorship is that it encourages these
virtually baseless rumors of general debauch
ofsatrocity. y.
