has destroyed a portion of their market. But they are
no worse Of now as a result Of war than the steel man.
~ufacturers Of Pittsburgh were two years ago asa result
Of unfair tartf action by the administration. The Nc
Adoos did not offer any aid, or show any sympathy, to
the steel producer on that occasion. Why the dtscrimi-
nation in the cotton producers favor, unless for the pur-
pose-as a portion OF the press suggests-ot recruiting
national convention delegates in the administrators in
terest in advance OF the fight a year hence?
It is worth while to note that Secretary McAtoos de-
%scription Of the distress in the cotton sections is regard.
ed as greatly exaggerated by conservative market judges.
The financial writer OF the New York Times makes this
statement:
There is not a bank in New York but would lend its
southern correspondents all the money they are likely
to need in connection with this years crop. As for ex-
orbitant rates Of interest. the southern banks could get
funds at a low rate and could afford TO lend TO the pro-

than the usual charge II they can get it from Washing.
ton without interest instead Of paying the northern in
stitutions 2 per cent. However, the cotton problem has
not seemed as serious this year as it was last summer.
II is admitted that as far as the mere letter OF the law
goes, the secretary OF the treasury has exercised a dis
erection vested in his office. But the spirit OF the law
and the letter are different things. That the lawmakers
contemplated a discrimination giving Atlanta money
without interest, and exacting interest on deposits IN
Chicago, a discrimination between the sections raising
wheat and corn and those raising cotton, a discrinina-
ton between north and south. is inconceivable. Mr.. Nc
Adoo has violated the whole spirit OF the law, and es-
tablished an infinitely mischievous precedent, and has
done so not in the presence OF any great and command
ing emergency but simply in Pursuit of partisan and fac
tional political ends. This is at all events the way the
matter looks to the majority Of impartial observers.

GERMAN CRISIS PASSING.

r looks now as If the crisis with Germany will pass
without serious complications setting in, and that the
\ Arabic trouble will be taken care OF in a manner
that will give satisfaction to all concerned. This is eX.
ceedingly good news, as the outlook for the continue
ton Of friendly relations between this country and Ger.
many Just after the sinking OF the Arabic was anything
but right. Coming as it did SO soon after the note OF the
United States to Germany setting forth that each affair
IS the sinking Of the Arabic would be considered an I'm
friendly act by this country, it seemed at first glance
that Germany was inviting trouble and trying to force
showdown" with the United States. Later develop
ments, however, have changed this view.
Germany has minated that she is willing to not only
make amends for the sinking of the Arabic, but for the
sinking Of the Lusftania as well; and to make just com.
pensatton to this country for losses caused by the sink
ing Of these two vessels. This is a display OF diplomacy
on the part of the Kaiser. and it is likely that the pro-
posal made by the Germany government to the United
states will be accepted. unless something unforeseen
should take place in the near future.
The OFFER OF Germany is made nj the form Of a bar
gain. For the diplomats of the Teuton nation demand
that the United States mediate between Germany and
Great Britain on the question Of the freedom Of the seas
the most p~erplexing question that the great war in Eu.
rope has brought.
Despite the fact that the offer of Germany has a con.
dftional tinge, the message was received in Washington
with much joy. 1t is looked upon as an almost certain
solution Of the Arabic trouble, which threatened to be-
come acute.
Wilson should jump at the chance to get this country
cot Of a serious difficulty for which he is as much to
bEanae as the Germans. His last note was too sweeping
and demanded too much Of the Germans. considering all
the circumstances. He wanted the lives OF Americans
protected, even though citizens of this country en-
harked on vessels which they knew belonged to a nation
hostile to the Germans and which carried contraband OF
war. Germany is now offering Wilson a chance to come
10 . working understanding. and it looks as II our Pres
dent should give the proposition his most careful End
courteous consideration

NO FEAR OF DAMAGES.

n ONE statesman suggests that il we had laws giving
damages to the estates of the persons lynched TO
be paid by the localities in which the lynching oc-
ours. this penalty would be a detriment to mob action.
1t is pointed out that in many states the state or local
ity is liable for damages done to property by mobs. Why
not make the public pay for damage TO human life as
we'll, it is asked.
The answer IS that such mob. for instance, as that
which Iynched Leo Frank would never be deferred by
fear OF a judgment in damages against the state or coun-
ty. There is no reason for believing that the officers
whose remissness or COLLISION allowed the thing to be
done would have given a thought TO legal proceedings 10
collect damages on the part OF Franks wife or mother.
But If by the very act Of opening the doors Of the pen
itentiary or allowing them to be opened, if the mere
fact that Frank was taken from the prison, with or with
out blame on the part of the warden. superintendent or
guards, all their jobs had been forfeited without power
of reappolntment, Frank would be alive and in prison
today.
These mobs know beforehand that all they have to do
is to make a sufficient show OF force to give the men
Overcome" a chance to say they we're Obliged to yield
to Irresistible force" It is in nine cases out Of ten a
fake defense. The criminal has no force back OF him OF
which these job-holding politicians need to be afraid.
The mob has votes. There are Tom Watsons and Joe
Browns whose esteem will not be forfeited, and there
are thousands who will applaud and forget. Therefore
the sheriff, or the warden. or the deputy sheriff, or the
guard yields, and the helpless prisoner is lynched.
Let the law take from them the Jobs of such men in
stantly and forever when they give up their prisoner.
Let them be disqualified from holding public office for
five years thereafter. and forever barred from the place
they forfeited or any similar place. If the prisoner suf-
fers. let the officers from whose custody. actual or legal,
he was taken, suffer with him. An officer who gives up
a prisoner should be conclustvely presumed to be in
competent II he wants to hold his office, let him fight
of the mob. Let his friends outside be interested in
going into the bloodthirsty crowd and saying, Here, I'm
lust as strong for lyrchinS this fellow as you are; but
you can. lynch him without l~ynching the sheriff, too"
The officers of the law in such cases will take a diff
ferent view as to the amount OF force which is IRE
~sistible."
Let no man he eligible to hold such an office after he
has had prisoner taken from him. Let no explanations
save him. Let his official head fall when he proves
himself unable to protect his prisoner. 1t is the only
way out OF the lynching evil.
