QUEER HATS.

In Russia the maiden who is free may dress her locks as she wishes, but not so the wife. She must hide her hair.
 As a recompense for this sacrifice she dons hood which may we'll be called weird. In shape it is not un- like bishops mitre, and 1t is adorned as the fancy or the purse of the wearer dictates. Gold, silver and even preciouss stones have been used in decorating this kokoschink, as it is called
 In certain parts of Spain a hood similar to the Russian style is worn. Particularly is this popular with the dancers among the Toledo peasantry, although it must be very hot and un- comfortable.
 The Dutch maiden of Amsterdam pins her faith-and her head-to a hood which resembles in shape an in- verted flower pot. It may not be the style most suited to her round, placid race. but she would not change it for

THE SOUTH AND COTTON.

Somewhat different in tone is the views of the Atlanta Constitution. Ii thinks that a peaceful solution for the German problem will readily be found,' but sees in the attitude of England toward neutral commerce "a far more serious situation" adding:-
 "Unfortunately no apparent progress is being made in reaching an under standing with the British government which continues it's interference with our trade on the seas bound for neu- tral European ports, seizing even our non -contraband cotton cargoes, and buying them in, after long parleying, at about half the price they would bring if we had the open world mal kets which legally belong to us.
 "There is no sort of justification for this interference with American con- merce.
 AS between the German and Eng fish situations, the latter is now evi- dently the more serious and the more delicate of the two"
 Not so thinks the Montgomery, Ala, Advertiser:-
 Should we not force England to re- cognize the rights of our shipping un- der international law? We should, and that in good time. American dol lars are involved in our controversy with England; the rights of American citizens and the lives of American cit with Germany. We may be a mater ialistic nation but we have not yet put. money above humanity in any such way as that"
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-08-18

Comment on the issue with Germany continues, Law right, justice, hu- manity cannot be compromised" says the New York Evening Post But in reasserting these fundamentals the President may yet hope that Germany will come to a better mind"
 Tt is as important to us as it is to the allies,' says the Louisville Courier -Journal,' that the combine of the two Kaisers shall be put out of business and completely crushed" Journal, "a language which even the densest Teutonic diplomat can under stand"
 We cannot in honor" says the New York World, turn over to Germany the safeguarding of American ships under the Stars and Stripes; that is our task. We cannot haggle for special favors to our citizens on bell- gerent merchant vessels; we must as-
  belligerent ships but in all proper places and activities" It. however adds-
 Because We are right we can be petient. Because We are strong we can risk misconception of our attitude. We should be careful of the suscepti- bilities of other nations, and make all due allowance for the natural feelings of proud peoples at war.
 But it should be made very clear that neither to Great Britain nor to Germany can We concede any hard more merciful past. Tn this issue there is no half way

PRESS CONTINUES COMMENT
 ON THE GERMAN ATTITUDE

hand, would recall Ambassador Gerard
 since further negotiations seem i'm possible" This is not a widely preva- lent view, since it would almost cer- tainly bring war, and. as the Hartford Courant points out "The sentiment of this country is very strongly against war; it's horrors are too evident It is bad enough to have hell only 5000 miles away and visible; we don't want to bring it home"
 Perhaps the Hartford Post, in the form of a question, submits the al formative, which is apparently gain
 ing in public favor:-
 Suppose Germany actually com plies with our demands without mak- ing any formal proclamation of such conformity-will not that be sufficient to appease the Americans who are now applying all sorts of offensive and insulting epithets to the German na- ton and it's government?"
 There is, you'll remember, an old saving which runs to the effect that a German must be judged rather by what he does than by the bluntness of his speech.

GERMAN AMERICAN PRESS
 OPINION.

The New Yorker Staatz Zeitung l hated thinking we have, views in the German note "a sincere effort to meet l the questions involved and solve them in an amicable manner. It adds: The principle of the German atti- tude is sound. The matter of detailed arrangement is of secondary impor- tance and will readily work itself out"
 Other pro- German comments run:-
 "The German answer gives the Unit ed States everything that can be asked: Safety for freight steamers if they are in legitimate commerce and security for American travellers on American or neutral ships or on ships which sail through the war zone under the American flag More to demand Washington has no right.-Cincinnati Erie Presse.
 "The only difference of opinion arises
 in regard to the question whether ships carrying ammunition are to be classed as warships or mercantile yes sells Germany holds the former view, and we think that common sense sup ports her standpoint-Cin Volk- sblatt.
 "No one cognizant with the real state of affairs could for a moment im- agine that Germany would give up her submarine warfare as long as Eng lands tactics are contrary to all in ternational laws and usages.-Colo rado Herald.
 Concerning the American demand of safety for American ships and lives the German answer reiterates assur- ances that American ships engaged in legitimate trade will not be interfered with nor the lives of Americans upon neutral ships be endangered. To de- mand more than that would be an in- justice toward Germany.-Detroit Abendpost.
 "A masterpiece of wise, obliging and friendly diplomacy Ger mania Herald"

DEBATING THE NEXT STEP.

As to the "next step" time has not brought much clearer vision to our editorial statesmen. There seems to be an agreement that the situation has not reached a stage of crisis warrant ing an extra session Of Congress.
 "The next American note might properly" the New York World sug- gests, "contain an inquiry in business like terms as to the German attitude toward treaties-not treaties with it's near neighbors, but treaties with an old friends on this side of the Atlantic for whom it professes a high but ra- ther eccentric regard"
 The New York Tribune, on the other
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-08-18
"A COMMENT ON THE FOREGOING

Many of these German editors or their fathers left Germany for this free country to escape militarism. here" the New York Herald points out, "to escape military service. But now they are taking exactly the posi- tion, when 1t comes to a question of serving the country of their adoption, that they might be expected to take if they were discussing an issue be- tween Germany and England. All for Germany, nothing for t he United States. It is a curious spectacle."- Boston Record
