Human Rights indicated.

Fundamental human rights are Of
ten trampled On in tA!s country. but
seldom with impunity. Punishment,
though not swift, is pretty certain.
There Is special cause Tor satisiac-
ton in the prompt penalty for wrong
committed against a group OF poor
workmen Last winter at Roosevelt,
n. j.
The whole nation was shocked by
the murderous attack on a crowd of
strikers at a big chemical factory on
January 30 Guards armed with re-
volyers and sworn in as deputy sher-
ifs fired yolleys into the crowd, kill
ing two and wounding fifty others Of
them. There was no riot--there was
only attack on one side and terrified
flight or the other 1t was reported
at the time that the strikers were alb
solutely unarmed and had made no
hostile demonstrations OF any kind
against either the guards or the prop
erty they were protecting. Now at the
trial OF nine Of those guards on the
charge Of killing one of the victims,
The reports have been clearly estab-
lished as facts, fl is shown that the
attack was wholly unproyoked, and
that nearly all the victims were shot
in the back while running away
The nine guards have been con.
victed Of manslaughter. Fifteen more
are to be tried for the same offense.
The convicted men may get ten years
each in the pcnitcniiary. 1t ought to
be more, perhaps, but it will suffice
to drive home the lesson that the
right OF peaceful asscmblage on the
part of workmen or anybody else
rs not a dead letter in America. 1t
will also have a wholesome effect in
carbing the lawless violence OF thugs
masquerpding al deputy sheriffs, y
and the abuse Of power by sheriffs
IN delegating authority to such men.
The country would be still better
satisfied If the example Of this New
Jersey verdict were followed in Colo
rado. The Roosevelt strikers were
not more bitterly wrongod than the
strikers.

made by Justice Whitaker of New
York. The case concerned a moving
picture play which. 1t was contcnded,
wouiI be offensive to German Ameri-
cans. The judge, while deploring any
such tendency in the production, de-
clared that he could take no cogni-
zance of the matter. because the
American law recognizes no national
distinction based on the origin of cit
liens.
"The court" he said. cannot give
judicial sanction to the grouping of
American citizens-in different classes,
and shape or color its decision there
with. America includes all classes of
naturalized citizens, irrespective of
their place of birth. What has lately
come to be known as hyphenated citi-
zenship has 10 standing, and cannot
be recognized by the court or any
branch of the government The plain
tiff should not, therefore, be inter
fered with because OF the super-sensi-
tiveness of alien residents"
1t goes without saying that no race
ought TO be misrepresented in any
American play. In a way, the dccis.
ion seems unjust, since it may seem to
permit wrong without possibility of
reparation. And yet it ought to has
ten the day when there will be no
groups of citizens disposed to public
action or protest from motives based
on foreign sympathy or prejudice, no
matter what the occasion may be.

END Of WARFARE. IN
EUROPE BELIEVED TO
Be DRAWING NEARER
PEACE is IN THE AIR - PRESI-
DENT WILL NOT ACT UNTIL
REQUESTED.

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Peace is
in the air. Pessimists are little
needed. Due note is being taken
that Great Britain is not enthusiastic
over the German memorandum ac-
cepting the American terms in the
submarine controversy, A semi-of-
ficial statement from the Whitehouse
that the president will take no steps
until they are desired by both sides
is not overlooked 1t was conceded
that Germany's peace terms, tenta-
lively outlined by Won Bernstorff,
must be limited and perhaps modified
before the allies accept. Neverthe-
less developments are regarded as
tending toward peace.
1t was said recently that Germany's
concessions to the United States in
the submarine controversy might be
"of such nature as to lead to further
negotiations in the right direction"
Today many diplomats are saying
they believe the events are moving
with moderate rapidity. II is not that
much is being accomplished, but
that the belligerents are throwing out
peace feelers." Powerful interests
are encouraging them.
The following are among the tan
gible signs of this new feeling in
Germany's concessions in the subma'
rine controversy:
Germany's open declaration, by un-
official statement from Won Bern
storff. that the Berlin memorandum
was in behalf of securing American
cooperation to end hostilities; the
German ambassadors informal out
line OF Germany's peace terms; Sir
Edward Grey's admission that at
least the question of the freedom Of
the seas as advanced by Germany is
negotiable.

REPORTED.

Though the court officials have
given out no information. it is known
beyond doubt that one Of the indict-
ments returned this morning by the
grand jury was against Mrs Edith
Hughes, divorced wife Of Ira Hughes
and that she is accused Of the crime
Of arson 1t is reported upon good
authority that the state charges her
with setting fire to the house OF hef
husband near Meacham on Monday
night Of this week.

ed this morning, seven were with
held from publication because the par
ties were not yet under arrest
Deputy Sheriff Joe Blakely is out
with bench warrants this afternoon
and it is said upon reliable authority
that he bears one for Mrs Hughes.
The evidence presented to the grand
jury duplicating the former wife Of
Ira Hughes in the burning OF his
house is said to be entirely circum-
stantial but. nevertheless, strong. II
is said that trainmen testified that
she went up to Meacham Monday
evening and returned Tuesday morn
ing and that residents Of Meacham
saw here there other evidence Is
also said to have been gathered.
Hughes secured a divorce from his
wife last winter on grounds Of cruel

it is said she has been vainly endeav-
oring to affect a reconciliation and
more lately has expressed hatred tow
ard her former husband. Mr.. Hughes

WOMEN ARE INJURED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT
BILLY" WALTERS BADLY HURT

two women, whose names are un.
known, are also suffering from in.
juries as the result of an automobile
accident which happened this morn
ing about 1880 on the Wild Horse
fnacadam road near the Rothrock
farm.
The extent Of young Walters in
juries has not yet been determined
by the physicians. Aside from the
fractured ribs, there are many bruises
on the arms, hips and back which
are not expected to be serious. How
ever. there are internal hemorrhages
which indicate injuries which may
prove more grave. Several days mus
ell pse before the physicians will be
able to determine how badly he is

The cause Of the accident has not
teen clearly learned. The car. which
was a small one, turned over when
it swerved so suddenly that the steer
irg wheel was wrenehed from the
drivers hands. 1t is supposed the car
struck a little chuckhole.
