Washington, Feb. 9.-The admins
tration view of the holsting of the Am
erican flag on the British steamship
Lusitania, as stated on the highest
authority, is that the use OF other
flags by the ships of warning nations
is such a customary practice that no
formal protest can be made. but it will
be proper to send Great Britain a note
pointing out the dangers to neutral
shipping which may follow If the prac-
tice is continued.
London, Feb. 9.--Asserting that the
Lusitania adopted permissible
stragem" in hoisting the American flag
to avoid danger in the final stage OF
her dash for Liverpool" the Manches-
ter guardian, declares IAN act may be
perfectly lawful without being expedi-
cnt or altogether fair"
The paper continues: "The fact that
our fastest liner had to change her
flag has shocked our pride as much as
the loss of the ship would have shock
ed our humanity. If all or many OF
our merchant liners were to- do the
same, the result would be, as American
papers are pointing out, to diminish
the value of the protection given by
the American flag"

A BIG GRANGE.

The first new Grange organized in
Massachusetts this year is a big one,
in the town Of Seekouk, with a char
ter membership Of 121 names. Mas
sachusetts is easily the leader among
the states, in point OF organizing SUI
bofdinate Oranges with large charter
lists. A half dozen years ago, when
it organized the Grange at Milford
with Ill charter members, it carried
off the palm for the largest charter
list ever organized in the country. A
year later, il the same state, New
huryport Grange was organized with
249 charter members, which estab-
lished a new record, and one that
has since been reached in any
state. Last ear three more rousing
Oranges We're added to the roll in
Massachusetts, all Of which exceeded
any organized elsewhere in the cOun-
try during the year-Middleton, with
1T charter members: Kingston, with
ZIG, and Reading, with 241.

HEALTH AND THE GRANGE
Prominent Changers in Many States
Are Speaking ana Writing on
Hygienic Matters.

To a widespread degree tho Oranges
in many states are taking M live
topics OF health and giving them a
prominent place in their programs Of
the year. Discussions, papers ami ad-
dresses BIZ leading men and. women on
health matters have been features in
hundreds of Oranges, while these have
been followed, in many cases, by prac-
tical protects set under way, designed
to improve sanitary and hygienic con-
ditions In both homes and commune
ties.
This new phase Of Grange effort pro-
ceeds from the action taken by the
last National Grange session at Man
chester, N. H., which voted unani-
mously to establish a Grange health
day and called on the local bodies to
carry out plans towards that end. In
no Grange undertaking Of recent times
has the response been so great and
thus is a mighty organized force Of
the country thrown on the side Of bet
ter health and household conditions.
Michigan is one Of the states that
has taken UP the health question with
great vigor and a mighty influence has
there been set going because of it. A
great amount of vigorous health litera-
ture is being issued by the Michigan
State Grange, which is designed to
reach every one of the 10000 Grange
members in Michigan, supplementing
the work being done In the Grange
meetings.
One valuable piece Of literature that
Is being SO used is a leafet entitled
Common Sense Health Hints pre-
pared by the governor Of the state.
Hon Woodbridge n. Ferris. and which
is being widely distributed. The
hints are Of the most practical sort
and the governor makes this sensible
suggestion In closing: Just give to
We'll people the am opportunities
you tax the state to give to sick peo-
pie. Let all work, physical or mental,
all recreation, all exercise or rest,
take place in the presence Of clean
air. Fresh air, sunlight, pure water,
loose clothing, wholesome food in sufli-
cient quantities, manual work, mental
work and sleep used intelligently offer
the sure means of building a consti-
tuition that best deies all disease,
whether contagious or otherwise"

Floyd z. Thompson, who has ably
filled the office of states attorney of
Rock Island county since his election
as a democrat in 1912. has proven by
results that the confidence of the yot.
ers in his ability as a young. forceful
and progressive lawyer, was not mis-
placed During his term in office he
has won his legal spurs in many
hard-fought legal battle. The record of
the states attorney for the past year
has been notable for the large number
of convictions. perhaps the largest in
county history. and this fact is not to
he overlooked in estimating the worth
of public prosecutor sworn to up
hold the majesty of the law.
A native of Illinois, Mr.. Thompson
was reared on the paternal home
stead near Roodhouse in this state. and
gained his early education at eoun-
Try school. He followed this by taxi
ing a course and graduating from high
school He was enabled to do the lat
ter only by outside work. In the sum-
mer time working upon the farms and
during the school year working morn
ings and evenings at a dairy. He made
good use of his time in high school,
and gained many honors, including
! these being his election as president
| OF his class.
He entered Chattanooga university
| and graduated He also received hon
/ ors there, being president of the Mar
! shall club. For a season while at Chat
! anooga he read law in the Office of
| States Attorney Mark Meyerstein. He
| was admitted following his graduation
| 10 the Tennessee bar and then began
the practice of law.
! But the call OF his native state, Hi
| nois, was too urgent TO resist and he
returned 10 Illinois, was admitted to
the state bar and located IN Rock Is
land county.
| When he came to Rock Island county
! he settled in East Moline. and there
/ is none who stands better there than
does the states attorney. His law
practice netted him excellent results
/ after locating IN this county, and he
| was serving his second term as vii
! lage attorney of Carbon Cliff when the
H democratic party chose him as its can
/ didate for states attorney in the cam
H paign of 1912.
1 He was one of the two successful
Il democrats to land county office in that
4 campaign. His prominence in East Mo-
i line and the upper end of The county
stood him In good stead. He was prom
inent in the East Moline Commercial
club, and since becoming states attor-
ney has also affiliated with the Rock
