to get the blessings of lower
rates.
We have ways of knowing
this now. The situation is
shown in the wide difference
between rail rates to points on
the river and rail rates to other
towns nearby but off the river
and without good highways to
the river.
Rail rates are based on the
idea the railroad should charge
"all the traffic will bear"
Therefore the way to reduce
rates is to provide competitive
conditions. After May 5
through navigation will be at
hand on the Columbia and the
rates will be made lower than
ever before.

their papers today are full
of the same old accusation. But
why should we make a declar.

stopping the sale of arms that
she is not navally strong

That matter Of selling arms
was the chief point of Ambas-

able note, and it is, properly,
the chief subject of the reply,
although the accusation that
this government had acquies-
ced in Great Britain's block
ade order in council is firmly
met and completely disposed
of. Germany cannot complain
of any lack of diplomatic cour-
tesy in the answer, but she can
not, on the other hand, claim
that there is any ambiguity in
the language pointing out the
attitude of this country.
Let US hope that this argu-

arms will rest for a while. The

THE ANSWER TO GERMANY
. HE answer of the state de-
W partment to Ambassador

m HE answer of the state de-
W partment to Ambassador
Won Bernstorff's note of
the 4th of April practically ac-
cusing this government of viO-
lation of neutrality for refusing
to order an embargo on the ex-
portation of arms is admirable
for many things, not the least
of which is the absence of any
show of temper, great as was
the provocation to resentment.
Furthermore, is it to be COM
mended by its calm ignoring
of the almost insolent way in
which Ambassador Won Bern
storff appealed TO the people
Of the United States over the
head of their president. Moth
ing was said of this, and moth
ing should have been, because
to have entered upon that
phase of the discussion would
have lowered the state paper
to a species of pickering. This
would have been a part below
the dignity of the United
States to play.
But the reply lacks nothing
of backbone, even if it is de-
Gently concealed by the flesh
of diplomacy. 1t is made evil
dent that the United States is
firmly convinced that it is not
violating neutrality by permit
ting its citizens to sell arms to
whomsoever can call for and
get them, but that, on the con-
trary, it would be a violation if
we stopped such selling for the

DO OUR SCHOOLS REALLY
EDUCATE?

m HE question is frequently
W asked these days if the
schools of America really
train young people as they
should. There is much to be
said for the public school. 1t
is generally superior to the pri.
vate school. Yet it may be
justly questioned whether pres
ent school work is as it should
be. In a recent talk Miss Anne
Morgan of New York said:
"In the year ending July 81. 1914,
over thirty-flve thousand children left
the New York city schools to enter
some form Of galnfui occupation.
What equipment are the girls taking
with them. what standards have they
acquired to help them face the fu-

Their children must be less

A provision not found in any
other state law of this general
character is that which re-
quires that pension shall not
be granted unless it appears
that "if such aid is not granted
the child or children must be
cared for in an institutional
home" This provision, strictly
interpreted, would sharply lin

The GREATEST EXPOSITION

The Panama Exposition, now open,
is said to be the greatest project OF
its kind yet undertaken. In magni-
tude and cost 1t certainly surpasses all
others. 1t is two miles long and

And up the fiery stairs whose steps

Came the pale heroes OF the blood

There were lean Caesars from the

With heart that only to sword thrust

And there were generals decked in
pride Of rank.
Red scabbard swinging from the weary
flank,
And slender youths. who were the sons
Of kings.
And barons with their sixteen quar-

And while the mobiles went with
naughty air
The courteous sentinel questioned:
Who goes there?'
And as each came, full Justify he cried
His string Of titles, ere he passed in

And presently there was aslittle man,
A silent mover in the regal van,
His hand still grasped his rifle, and
his eyes
Seemed blinded with the light from
Paradise,
His was a humble guise. a modest air.
The sentinel held him sharply: "who
goes there?"
There were no gauds tackled to that
simple name,
But every naked blade leaped out like
flame,
And every blue blood warrior bowed
his head,

RAINBOW LITERATURE
DISTRIBUTED BY PENSACOLA
EOUAL SIIEERAGE IEAGuE

Were you standing on a corner yes
terday afternoon, and did you see,
floating in the breeze yellow and pur-
pie, and red and green and pink and
, blue papers? II you were standing
near the American National Bank
building or near the San Carlos hotel,
you must have seen this rainbow Of
color floating over your head, and If
you were progressive, as of course
you were. you must have caught one
OF the bright colored papers. and read
with interest the message: Votes For
Women"
There was a great deal more than
this on the rainbow literature that the
suffragists distributed. There were
reasons and reasons why you should
vote for women, and they were set
forth in most convincing way on the
bright papers which were scattered
broadcast on Carnival Tuesday.
But that was not the only way the
Pensacola Equal Suffrage League
caught the attention of the public Men
and women and little childen rose up.
and called them blessed yester-
day and Monday when. on entering the
rest room they had established on
Government street, in the American
National Bank building. they found
awaiting them. along with the rainbow
literature, q cordial welcome, a cup
of tea, easy chairs and even a bed
for the baby.
There was not a time On either day
that there were not tired. mothers and
children taking advantage OF this rest
ing place, and those who must
have gone away with a sense Of the
comfort the room stood for and the
progressive and womanly spirit which
prompted it. The rest room was a won
derful success in every sense of the
word. It's object was not to make
money nor to win new names for the
suffrage roll, but rather TO make COM
Portable the women and the children
especially those from QUITO town, who
were in Pensacola during the carnival
It was the suffrage leagues way Of ex-
tending hospitality, and 1t was good
way. And it may be mentioned that,
while the hospitality dispensed was
entirely gratutious, there were sew
eraI generously disposed men for
many men called during the day, who
contributed to the cause. and there
were many new names added to the
suffrage league, through this splendid
work.
