THAT HYMN OF HATRED"
(Cartoons Magazine.)

Ernst Lissauer's Hymn of Hate,' which has been taught in the public schools of Germany. coupled with the "Gott strafe England' maoness, may well lead one to ask: whence this orgy of hatred? Is it of the heart or of the head? Punchs famous car toon of a German family lnduiging in tnelr morning hatred brings the sub rect into the ridicule that it deserves. Nobody can be expected to burst with hatred like a venomous toad. To cher isn d persistent hatred is unnatural. Even the author of the much quoted Hymn is said to be sorry that he ever wrote it; like the author of The
 Purple Cow he has repudiated his masterpiece. Meanwhile, Germany claims that not only England but all the world hates her. she mas made this world hate almost boast"

regardless of the name of the month.
 Two youths felt called upon to as- s7dit passersby and destroy their straw headgear after September 15. The court held this to be without war rant of law or of common sense and imposed Jail sentences, thus furnish ing protection to conservative citizens who cling to their summer hats as matter of sentiment as well as comfort.
 In this favored Puget sound district this decision virtually gives tho straw hat twelve months lease of life. There may be few men who will care to resurrect the sun -bleached, soot-be- grimed relic of vacation days, in mid winter, but If these be there will cer- tainly come days when such action will be Justified and sustained by the court,

ARBITRATION VS. LAWSUITS.
(San Francisco Chronicle. )

(San Francisco Chronicle.)
 The Seattle chamber of commerce has organized an arbitration committee, for the purpose of settling differences among it's members which would other wise lead to litigation.
 Of course, that is nothing new. Many trade organizations including at least one in this tate, have similar committed, which are continually set ting disputes in that way, and doing it promptly and at trifling expense Those, of course, are disputes within that particular trade. They are very common.
 A Chamber of Commerce committee would, of course, consider all disputes arising out of commercial transactions among members of the general mer- cantile community. New York city has a very effective arbitration system and doubtless other American cities.
 The trouble is the difficulty, perhaps lfnpOSSlDllly, ol eHloiSih5 ehS o"eios of arbitration boards against the will of the defeated party. If he is willing to defy public opinion, and possibly expulsion from the organization, he need not pay.
 Efforts have been made in various states to permit the awards of arbitra- tior boards to be entered as Judgments in the appropriate court, and enforced as other judgments are enforced. We believe that Is the law In New York but do not know how it works or whether such judgments are subject to appeal But, as rule, the awards are promptly compiled with, because most business men will do what they have voluntarily promised to do.
 In :, discussion on this general sub- feet ;n the Commonwealth Club some years ago, a well known lawyer of this city expressed the opinion that 1t would ba well if there was a law that no suit would be entertained in any court, un- til if had been affirmatively shown that all possible efforts had been made by .Ae rartics to settle the dispute by arbitration.
 And why not?

Seattle P.-I.)

Up to within the past week It might well be said that the part which the various countries in Europe were tax ing in the present war has been in ac- cordance with the earnest desires of the people of the belligerent countries, who are supporting their governments whole heartedly. But the attitude which is now taken by Bulgaria and by Greece shows a difference. In each country it is the sovereign, not the people. who has determined what the attitude of the government shall be.
 The king of Bulgaria was born a subject of the kaiser. It was through the influence of Germany and Austria that he was placed on the throne of Bulgaria, after the forced deposition of Alexander. Bulgaria owes its exist ence as an independent nation to Rus sia. Russia entered upon a war with Turkey on account of the outrages which the Turks were committing upon the Bulgarians, and as a result of Rus sian victory Bulgaria was made in- dependent The Bulgars owe a large debt of gratitude to Russia and have behind hem centuries of oppression

REGULATING THE DOCTOR.
Seattle P.-I.)

The medical profession, and no doubt the public will be interested in the announcement of campaign for ad- justing physicians fees by the public, in the manner that railroad rates are controlled by the interstate commerce oo ommisslon.
 A farmer, writing to Farm and Fire side, suggests that everybody should purchase a family medicine book and a medicine chest and let nature take it's course He contends that he finds it hard to be honest and at the same time pay doctors bills.
 q believe these brain lords should be controlled in the same maner as gre railroads rates" writes the farm philosopher land I think 1t will final ly come to this"
 The difficulty. with the "doctor book" is that 1t is the source of the greatest satisfaction when least used. When death may be in the scales. nobody will ordinarily stop to thumb a book for information, but will look around for the nearest doctor, and be glad to pay his fee
 If there is to be any fee lowering the physician himself will probably attend

THE REPUBLIC OF TAXES.
(Dallas Evening Journal.)

At Mercedes, Tex, circulars have been found proposing an uprising oI Mexicans to seize the states of Cali fornia Arizano, Texas. New Mexico, Oklahoma and Mississippi, and to weld these into the republic of Texas.
 There are some of our own people who yet regret that Texas ever surren- dered her autonomy to become a mere state in the union, and who believe that Texas would have been better off had she remained a republic. Perhaps this new dream of empire would ap- peal to these Texans were It founded on feasible scheme.
 But there are defects in the pros- pectus which indicate that the pro- motors care more for mere conquest than they know of geography. How, for instance, can they weld the five states aforementioned into an indivisi- ble republic without also utilizing the state of Louisiana, which lies between Texas and Mississippi? To conquer the five states named in the prospectus would be a big job, but to eliminate or eradicate Louisiana in addition would be an undertaking of the impos sible sort.

at the hands ot the Turks. Yet, the aynasty has forced their country into war against Russia and on the side of thor ancient and bitter enemy, the Turk.
 Tn Greece the king a Danish prince of strong pro-German procllvitles and whose strong minded wife is sister of the kaiser, has dismissed his cabinet, which had a large majority in parma ment and which is strongly favorable to entering the war in defense of it's ally serbia and announces a policy of friendly neutranty towards Germany and Austria. This assumption by the king of supreme power to overrule the French have landed troops in Greek territory. on the way through that Greek territory to assist the Serbs, who have been the allies of Greece in two recent wars.
 The majority sentiment in both Greece and Bulgaria, could it find e2- pression, would doubtless be exactly opposite to the position which the mon archs of those two countries have taken The final outcome of the war is likely to see changes of dynasty in both countries. Bulgaria and Greece may even emerge as republics.

DROUGHT PUTS CITY
WATER IN DEMAND
Danvilie's Water Supply Being Stead
lily Decreased by Long Period
of Dry Weather.

Danville, July 4.-The protracted
period of dry weather is going to
cause some excess water bills at the
end of this month If the mechanical
chart in the water and gas Office is
doing their work properly
This chart records the water pres
sure in the city reservoir hourly ana
for the past week between the hours
of and 9 at night the pressure
has been reduced so suddenly as to
be very noticeably traced by the red
ink needle on the chart. Between
those hours citizens who have gar
dens and lawns are busy watering
them, and so many have undertaken
to save their vegetables that the big
pump near the river at Schoolfield
has been called on to do extra work.
Two weeks ago several large filter
tubs were completed In the city pump
house and the present records show
that had these not been in operation
during the past week the city would
have been hard pressed In keeping
people supplied with water at night.
The normal capacity OF the city
pump is. one million ballons each day.
