PROMISES WITHOUT PERFORM.
ANCE,S

The trouble with Germanys assur-
ance of reform in her submarine war
fare. az it appears, is that it is an
assurance only in theory, with no
guarantee OF application to any par
ticular case.
Germany promises not to attack
passenger ships unless they first at
tack her submarines or try to escape
when warned: and she announces that
she has instructed her submarine
commanders TO that effect But she
leaves it to her commanders TO use
their own discretion in any concrete
case, and stands ready apparently to
back them M in any excuse they see
fit to give.
In the Arabic case. the commander
thought the liner was going 10 ram
him." or at least he reported that he
thought so. or the German government
reported that the commander report
ed that he thought so. And that settles
it-for Germany. The mere fact that
nobody on the liner-captain, crew or
passengers-saw the submarine at all.
makes no difference
In the Orduna case, a submarine
/ fired a torpedo without warning: and
when it missed and the liner steamed
on. the submarine shelled her till she
was out of range. And Germany
calmly reports that the commander
reports that it was so dark he mis-
took the nationality of the ship. In
both cases she refuses reparation.
These. of course are the fimsiest
of excuses. Yet a great government
uses them to nullify the effect of a
pledge solemnly given by its ambas-
sador-and may keep on promising
and lodging indefinitely.
Such equivOcation. of course, is
worse than no pledge at all. for it
| enrages the nation by raising hopes
and then dashing them down again.
How much longer is Germany going
to treat the United States as a credu-
lous and ignorant child? And how
much longer is the United States go
/ ing TO stand for such treatment?

TO ARM OR NOT TO ARM.

Gogansport Pharos Reported.)
Few thoughtful people object to a
reasonable amount Of preparedness
for war on the part of the national
government, just as they believe in
the proper policing OF city or the
maintenance Of proper defense OF
the state. But the people of America
shrink from the appearance of mill
tarism, the history of the world
showing that in the last analysis the
nations of the earth have gone TO
pieces on this rock of governmental
policy. The argument against an
armed peace is very interesting and
seems to follow along clean-cut psy-
Geological lines.
In the first place the question might
be asked Which is the safer from
danger in ordinary life, the man who
is upright, honest, law abiding, mind
ful of the rights of others who goes
up and down the land unarmed. or
the man who. big muscled and
brawny, carries big gun on his hip?"
The history of all the courts in the
land is that the good man unarmed
is the safer from attack. Many men,
in fact the country is full of such men
who go forth by day and night carry
with them Valuables, bear important
documents and yet so through a life
of usefulness and never know the
need of defensive armament. But the
bully. the plug ugly, the man who
hasn't a cent Of value upon his per-
son and whose big carcass is little
more than so much beef, carries a big
gun in his pocket, a stilletto in his
bosom and various implements of de-
Tense, and is always in a fight. Fights
and assaults and murder come from
such folks and they are perpetually
being imposed upon and fiouted and
! assaulted. The jails and penitentiar-
les are full of such men. The nation
is only the individual multiplied. A
man of integrity is defense in him.
self. In disagreement with his
neighbor he brings about an adjust
ment established by civilized and hu-
name society and he has the respect
of all
Whenever a man carries gun, he
announces by that act that he defies
the law of the civilized society and If
disagreement arises be will proceed
by brute force TO override his antago-
mist.
In short, as real civilization ad-
vances. guns and knives and bludgeons
disappear. and as individuals and ma
tons take the back track toward the
aboriginal savage, bludgeons and
knives and guns multiply.

TEMPERANCE BEER.

The kind of beer sometimes known
as "near-beer' and sometimes as
Temperance beer" is the object OF
considerable discussion and not lit
tie i'll feeling in districts where the
sale of alcoholic liquors is forbidden.
The federal government exacts rev
enue on the manufacture OF all beV-
erages containing as much as One-half
OF one per cent of alcohol, and the
manufacture of non-taXabie beverages
upon premises of a brewery taxed for
fermented liquors Is forbidden. But
several states have defined alcoholic
beverages i'm other terms. Louisiana
passed a law legalizing the sale in
dry territory of beer containing not
more than two per cent Of alcohol.
The act further states that the con-
tainers in which the beverage is ship
ned must bear q statement or the
maximum quantity of alcohol by vol
ume. and that no other beverage may
be sold under the same roof.
In Georgia, a prohibition state, the
Law provides specifically for the sale
of ''near-beer'' TO be consumed on the
premises. and retail dealers are IL
censed and taxed by the state. The
Georgia court of appeals has decided
that ito establish a claim that any
soft drink now sold is viOlative of

to excess, produce intoXication. From
which il may be inferred that the
court is not so skilled in splittine
hairs as in splitting infnitives, for
there is still a question IS 10 what is
meant by drunk to excess. and there
is no definition of ''intOXication,' a
word which some have defined as de-
noting a slightly unsteady gait and
thick speech, but which has been de-
clared by others 70 denote the condi-
lion Of a person who can not lie OF
the floor without holding on.
The court OF civic appeals of Texas
has held that "a place in prohibition

are kept for sale. is a disorderly
house" And in enforcing the prOvis-
ions OF the federal foods and drug:

What The Papers Say

visible. The little cemetery IS a des-
olate. neglected. forgotten spot. The
grave marked by the crumbling
stone is that of John Brown, the
brave old abolitionist hero of Har-
per's Ferry who sealed his belief in
human liberty in his own blood. The
six unmarked graves are those of men
who persisted at Harpers Ferry. They
were oliver and Watson Brown,
sons of John Brown; William and
Dalphar Thompson, white men, and
Stevens and Haslett, negroes. These
men were killed at Harper's Ferry
and their bodies were at first dumped
into a trench. Later their bones were
laid at rest in the little Gods Acre
in North Elba beside the remains Of
the Forerunner Of Freedom.
The graves are on farm once own
ed by Peter Brown. grandfather Of
John Brown, and later by John Brown
himself The cause for which these
men died is yearly celebrated and
constantly fresh in the minds of men
who will not be able TO forget while
a veteran remains to sound a bugle
on Memorial day or a descendant
lives to repeat the stories of the great
struggle.
But no "old mortality" has rev.
erently cared for these graves. They
have been forgotten. Now move
ment has been begun by Byron r.
Brewster, of Glenns Falls, y. Y, who
as boy worked for John Brown, and
by some others TO raise funds for a
monument to Brown and his sons and
friends The movement should be
made national.
Those who are discussing patriotic
themes at this time have here an OPP
portunity to show their faith by their
works. Faith without works is
dead, being alone" IT is a shame that
this matter has so long been neglect
ed. Now is a good time to show that
patriotic service. and service for hui
mainly is not to be rewarded with
a well-grOwn. unmarked grave.
