born true to their adopted country
on this untutored hemisphere-poun
1t is gratifying, however, that the
German government itself has shown
a better sense of the fitness of things
than the ultra pros, by disavowing the
sinking of unarmed neutral vessels
and offering such indemnity as may
be had for the loss of American lives,
in response to the protests of "Wilson
and his crew.
Iron County register., 1915-10-21

THIS, taken from the st. Louis
Westliche Post, is fair sample of the
pabulum served to the pro-German
element by "Hoch der Kaiser" sheets
here in America:
To every self-respecting American
who gives the matter sufficient
thought the attitude of sham neutral
ity assumed by Wilson and his crew
must be to say the least nauseating.
Ever since the beginning of the war
the purpose of taunting and humiliat-
ing Germany and on the other hand
supinely submitting to any indignity
that Great Britain might choose to
heap upon us has been clearly appar-
rent. No matter how far Berlin might
go to conciliate us, some new conten-
tion was promptly raised, coupled with
the implied threat of a diplomatic
rupture in case of compliance.
And on the other hand England was
permitted to spit upon our rights as
an independent nation without so
much as protest on the part of the
guardians of our national honor. On
the contrary, in the true spirit of
Christian meekness, we turned the
cheek. But then we have Mr.. Wilson's
word for it that this is "fair play"
That England has violated our
rights as neutrals "without SO much
as a protest'' from this government,
is simply and absolutely false, as ev-
cry intelligent citizen knows. She
will be called upon to atone for
the wrongs she has committed against
us. Those wrongs affect property
only, and reparation may be made
with dollars and cents. With Ger
many our contention is vastly differ
ent and concerns wrongs which money
cannot repair. England has captured
and retained few of our vessels and
cargoes under the plea that they were
contraband; German submarines have
wantonly destroyed hundreds oi
American citizens mon combatants
women and children-within their
rights on the high seas, their safety az
neutrals guaranteed by the law Of ma
tions. Again and again were the ont
RACES repeated, and of course SHARP
protest and warning followed on the
part Of President "Wilson and bis
crew. ] suppose "Wilson and his
crew" ought to have clothed them
selves in abject humility, kissed the
chastening hand of the divinely ap-
pointed Kaiser, and said, 'Great
Wilhelm, let thy VIII, not ours,
be donep' That would have accord
cd, exactly, in spirit, with the ap-
parent sense Of the Westliche Post
people and the Neutrality Leaguers,
who love not this their adopted coun-
try less, but militaristic Prussian Vat
erland more. As to the feelings OF
some ninety odd millions other people

that certain w. G. T. U. leaders "are
trying to push through one of the
widest pipe dream schemes that has
ever been tried in that state, which
is the home of all sorts and sizes of

preme Court declare all tobacco users
as addicted to the use of narcotic
drugs, and thereby debar them from
the use of any beer or liquor under
the law that win go in effect the first
of the year." Good for the Oregon

gotten. Money and hatred have
done their worst. The vinhicate
prosecution of Thaw by Jerome,
and the Thaw wealth finally
brought about his release, for

turned public sentiment towards

rest. Possibly the outcome was
not in strict justice, but America

Safety on Land
and Sea.

The great Chicago tradegy is
regarded as proof positive of the
wisdom OF such legislation as has
been enacted in the LaFollette
seaman's law. the provisions of
which has been fought by certain
steamboat interests, including
the officials ot the company which
owned the Eastland. 1t having.
been frequently demonstrated
that the steamboat companies
think more of a large passenger
list than of human life, IL is per
tectlv natural that the Federal
Government should take "A band
III regulating conditions, The
LA Fallotte law does not become
effective until November. and
while in its operation it will meet
but partially the conditions that
have made possible the Chicago
tragedy, yet those familiar with
its provisions declare that it is
a. step III the right direction.
Some OF the American steamship
companies, i'll order to show
their contempt for the legislatio a
of Congress have announced their
intention OF sailing under Chinese
and other flags instead Of the
Stars and Stripes.
1t does not take "A long mem
ory to recall that the railroads
were about as foolish as the
stea mboat companies, when the
sensible public opinion demanded
a change in their fossilized met
hods. The railroad officials puff
ell and threatened, scolded-and
! finally wept. Meanwhile Con
gress and the State Legislatures
freed OF their political dominat-
ion, settled down and evolved
.nsible methods to make these
institutions work in harmony
with the balance ofthe industrial
and commercial scheme of the
|
country. After few years a
number OF the railroad presidents
woke up to the fact that the
public actually had rights that
ought to be respected. and some
OF them got INTO the game and
helped inaugurate sensible safety
devices and equal rates to all.
but it took a lot of floggIng to
make them see the light. Just as

of public opinion against reckless
