republicans and one progressive voted

The senate made some changes in

COURTESIES AND DECENCIES
OF WAR.

Among the officers of the German
vessels sunk by the British in the en-
gagement off Heligoland was the son
of the German naval commander IN
chief. Admiral Won TirpitZ.
A mind intent on grasping every
advantage would have left the fate
Of the younger Won Tirpitz in doubt.
Resolute fighter though he may be-
Admiral Won TirpitZ is human, and
unreleved anxiety about his son
would tend to lessen his professional
efficiency.
Winston Churchill head of the
British admiralty. did not grasp this
small though real advantage. Instead
ne has asked that the American am
bassadOr at Berlin inform Admiral
Won Tirptz: Your son was saved
and is not wounded"
1t is to be regretted that Mr.
Churchill could not send similar in
formation to the fathers and mothers
of all the German Seamen rescued by
their British foes. However. he has
done something that shows a gener-
Gus mind. not unregardful OF the
courtesies and decencies, even in
time of war.
If there were more of the same
spirit on all sides we should not be

gian women Of mutilatiOn % the

SPIRIT OF THE WEST

While New York is still nursing its
funk. the great central community in
the United States, which has its nerve
center in Chicago. has decided to lose
no more time in hooking up to OPP
portunity.

and getting ready to Throw scouting
parties into South America and other
promising foreign trade fields
This company is TO be open TO all
New Workers can come in if they
want to. But it is primarily a revolt
of the spirit of the American west
from the casts sour-faced pessimism
The folks who live close To the heart
of America know she is all right
know that it's time now TO wake up
from the war shock, don smiles and
get busy.
If the Atlantic seaboard wants to
wear mourning for European markets

ing TO the bat To score new ones. il will
be allowed TO do so.

GOODS MADE IN INDIANA.

indianapolis business men ought to
turn out in goodly numbers TO visit
Kokomo's 100000 prosperity eX-
hibit." Howard county is rich in agri-
culture and manufactures. Kokomo
has several important automobile
factories, steel plants. plate glass es-
Establishments and numerous mills. 1t
has prospered within the last 20
years on an unusual degree. There
fore il can we'll afford to have an eX-
hibition. Excursions from many
parts of the state are being run. 1t is
planned that 200 indianapolis people
make the trip. Aside from its indi-
Vidual merit the 100000 prosperity

peal ii makes for optimism A city
can not well hold a congratulatory
Snow unless it has something to eX-
hibit. KokomO's prosperity is indi-
cative, we hope. of conditions else
where in the northern part of the
state.
During state fair week there is TO
be held in this city a made-inrIn-
dianapolis' exhibit. The Chamber Of
Commerce expects beneficial results
from such an undertaking. The state
fair will bring thousands of visitors to

sometimes happens that local bust
ness, unless energetic. loses consid-
cradle trade to outside firms. Max
ing purchases may be said TO depend
largely on habit, all other things
quality and price especially-being
equal. 1t is the idea Of the Chamber
of Commerce TO arouse visitors to the
ability of patroniZing home in

There really ought to be such reel
procity. Looking at the subject from
larger view. a prosperity eNhi-
bition in Kokomo. Fort Wayne or
Evansville. rightly calls attention to
the activities of those cities and at
tracts more trade. There is enough
trade for all. Howard county peO-
pie may find that they can not meet

should go to other Indiana centers

THE PHILIPPINES

The minority of the house commit
tee on insular affairs is right in hold
ing that the time is not favora bic for
a general discussion Of Philippine mai
tiers. There is nothing in the report
of an alarmist nature, nor is there
any reason for alarm. The minority
simply suggests that in the present
complicated state of affairs it would
not be wise to raise any questions as
TO the government of the islands or
as to a possible change-even at a
remote date-in their sovereign. IT
should be noted that the republican
minority of the committee does not
oppose Philippine independence-it
simply argues that it should not be
considered now. The minority. "

BOOMER wAsHINGToN's ADVICE.

DOpkth NASHlN6ION'S ADA IL l..
In speech made at a gathering OF
white and cOlored people at Tuskegee
the other day. Booker T. Washington
emphasized anew his teaching TO the
members OF his race that the settle
ment OF their problem depends upon
themselves.
They must solve IL he said. as the
white man did his. by acquiring edu-
cation and wealth. This is so plainly
the solution Of the negroes troubles
that it should be clear 10 every one
When they look around them and see
what intelligence and money can &C.
complish they should see the answer
to their questions there.
1t is perfectly true that they have
many handicaps and the way 10
wealth is not as widely open TO them
as TO their white brethren because OF
impediments that the latter have put
in the path, out the white man has
difficulties to overcome also-and
overcomes them.
Every educated. high minded negro
in a community becomes a force not
only among his own people. but in a
general way as a citizen. His money
accomplishes as much for him as the
white mans money achieves. There
is no color line in commerce. If a
negro has something TO sell that other
people wish 10 buy his complexion
cuts no figure in the matter. If he
has money to lend white men will
borrow it and pay him interest-and
respect him.

the educational. industrial and com
mercial progress OF the colCred peo-
pie of the United States in the last
half century will be held in Rich
mond. Va. Ii will be a notable dis
play, for the advancement of the race
has been great. Ii is made possible
by the fact that many thousands have
acted on the principle advocated by
