These results speak we'll for the eff
fectiveness of the German naval oper-
atoms. If there were no other ele-
ment involved, the observer might be
disposed to praise the German navy

mendous obstacle differed by the great
British war fleet Unfortunately. the
credit of the achievement is dimmed
by the human factor in the balance
sheet. In seeking TO destroy the en-
emy's commerce. Germany has Incl
dentally destroyed some 1855 lives of
noncombatants and neutrals. The
British admiralty declares that in sim
liar operations it has not taken
single life, either German or neutral.
We must at least give England credit
for that, but it is evidently insufficient
to crafty the British populace. The
younger generation, it seems, wants
action.
The old cabinet. owes its troubles to
its secrecy, perhaps as much as TO
any one cause. Even England doesn't
like being kept forever in the dark
we mean intellectual darkness, rather
than the mere turning off the lights
Of London for protection against Yep
pelins. Lords Churchill and Kitchener
have been prize lid" nailers from the
very beginning of hostilities. and if
the lack of public knowledge as to
their accomplishment has effected a
misunderstanding to work their Gust
er; well, perhaps it will be a lesson to
their successors anyway.

HANGING FIVE MEN.

Any humanitarian who wants to get
in practical stroke against capital
punishment has an unusual chance Of
fered him by Gov Hunt OF Arizona
ON May 2S. in that state. there is
scheduled 10 take place what the gov
ernor calls "a death orgy" Five men
are to be hanged together on bloody
Friday" which the governor has tried
in vain TO forestall.
The state has been asitated over the
matter for months The question Of
abandoning capital punishment, with
special reference 10 these condemned
men. was submitted to the voters
through a referendum. and failed be-
cause OF the lack of legal majority
though nearly half the electorate vot-
cd for the reform. \ new law gives
the state board OF pardons sole dis
erection in the matter. and Gov Hunts
recommendation for clemency has
been ignored.
While the lives OF the condemned
men in the Arizona state prison seem
hopelessly doomed" says the execu-
tive in public statement. the board
OF pardons and paroles might yet in
tervene. were it disposed 10 do so. In
view OF the fact that the moral and
unitarian question involved in the ap-
plication OF capital punishment is a
nationwide issue. which would be di-
rectly affected by a wholesale execu-
ton in Arizona, the filing OF forceful
protests against the tragedy impend-
ing in this state would be welcomed
from all people OF humanitarian in
stincts and prOclivities throughout the
'nited States"

Reorganization OF the British cabi-
net may or may not be a good thing
for Britain in the war. That there
has been some excuse for some time,
however for public wonder as 10 what
the apparently "old fossils" of the
'.inner-circle" were up 90. is evidenced
by their somewhat slim accomplish
ments After ten months OF war.
England appears 90 have accomplish
ed but very little on land. her
achievements being seldom heard
from. while on sea il is admitted that
she has lost quite as much as she has
gained. with the odds against her as 10
the future. She has rid the seas of
German commerce, but the complaint
now is that she seems unable To pro
tect her own.

shipping out Of business. the advan-

WATCH THE BOOT OF EUROPE

Italy, geographically the boot of
Europe" seems 10 be about ready to
administer a severe swat TO Austria,
and, as is customary when the pedal
extremity is used for the purpose of
chastisement, the kick will be deliv-
cred from position where it VIII do
the most good. In other words Italy
will come at Austria from the rear.
and with the full strength of a highly
trained, thoroughly equipped, and
wonderfully efficient army of perhaps
two million men, attempt 10 force the
chain of fortresses guarding the Aus
trian frontier along the Tyrolean Alps.
If successful in this. she will invade
the Hapzburg domains. the final OBJ
jective being Vienna, the national cap
ital.
With the eyes Of the world on Italy,
it is well to know just a few things,
in the event she gets into the fight.
The difference in time between
Rome and New York is five and three
quarters hours; at midday in the
Italian capital it is a quarter past SIX
in New York. Italy is bounded on
the water side by three seas-the
Adriatic, Mediterranean and Ionian;
on the land by mountain rangeS-the
Alps and ApennInes. 1t has a popu-
latiOn of approximately 40 million or
about two-f fths that of the United
States. Its army ranked fifth in war
strength among the world powers. be-
fore the present war, with more than
100000 men. Its navy at the same
time ranked seventh.
At the present time Italy is su-
periOr in both respects to Austria
Hungary. not taking into consideration
the enormous losses to that country
since the outbreak of the war.
Italy ranks seventh in wealth. Her
national debt is extremely large, but
her national revenue per capita is
correspondingly great
Summing up, Italy is well prepared
for war. Her advent on the side OF
the allies will give them an immense
advantage. Watch Italy, if she does
get in the scrap!

Meyer started planting it when he
was 60 years old. His neighbors
couldn't understand. They objected:
why. you won't ever get any benefit
from those trees"
They're for people to remember
me by" replied Meyer quietly.
They're my monument. They're the
only monument l want They'll keep
my memory green. won't they?"
He got more benefit from them"
than might have been expected. He
lived for twenty years after that. and
all the time he kept on planting more
trees. acre after acre, until there
were waving catalpas, row on row,
as far as the eye could reach from
the pleasant house in the midst Of
his 1100-acre ranch.
They buried John Meyer under his
trees. as he wished. Maybe he sleeps
all the better with rustling leaves
above him Instead OF marble. At any
rate. he had twenty years enjoyment
OF his own monument. and twenty
years satisfaction in the pleasure that
posterity would have in it.

hope there is in those 100000 green
