The Submarine.

BY one Of the amiable rules of war,
soldiers may take fearful reprisal for
any attack on them by civilian. I'm.
mediately on entering Belgium the
German Army let It be known that
II civilian fired on them, not only
he but every male in the house whence
the shot came would be executed; and
they applied this rule with that rigor.
GUS thoroughness for which Prussia's
military conduct has long been IA.
nous.
A standing cause Of unhappiness to
American war correspondents was the
certainty that II any intoxicated or
otherwise irresponsible citizens should
happen to shoot at q uniform from
their habitations. they would be intro
duced to q firing party first, and the
detailed circumstances Of the case
possibly-investigated afterward. Lou.
vain was laid waste, with much blood.
shed, because of civilian attack on
soldiers. Many smaller towns suffer.
ed the same fate for the same reason.
The excuse is that soldiers must
know whom they are fighting. They
assume that a man in civilian dress
is q noncombatant and, therefore, let
him alone; but he must strictly live
up to that assumption or he would
have them at disadvantage.
1t Is. of course, q barbarous rule:
but it is binding in whatever military
law there is, and in practice. If it
is binding its converse ought to be,
and the deliberate killing of an actual
noncombatant by q soldier ought to
be regarded as mere murder. To take
horrible vengeance for a shot fired
by a supposed noncombatant, and then
IN cold blood to kill an actual non.
,combatant, will never do.
If submarine can not operate ef-
fectually without killing noncombat.
ants, then it must not operate at all.
Internationally that will be the worlds
judgment. :, AS matter of fact, the
effectual operations Of submarines in
this war that have really counted at
all have consisted in the sinking of
war vessels.
The sinking of merchant ships has
not changed ire military situation in
the least. Sc far it has merely gener.
ated an odium, which counts as a
heavy liability in a world where public
opinion is, after all, great force. War
may temporarily suspend its operation,
but not abrogate It.
7 We have no doubt Germany could
have better afforded the loss of doz.
en- army brigades than the sinking OF
the Lusitania.

The Justly Praised "eryan Treaties

Since resigning, Mr.. Bryan has been
in his proper sphere, and everybody
Is the gamer. His talks about the
war and about the making Of peace
and its future safeguards have been
.eminently wise and sensible. The
newspaper assertions that he was 60
ing out to fight the president, split the
Democratic party, and become a rival
candidate for the nomination, have not
been justified by any word or act of
the great campaigner. He has been
proclaiming the value Of those treaties
Of his which call for investigation and
delay before the outbreak Of war be-
tween nations. In the days to come,
1t will appear that Mr.. Bryan had
really done one great and splendid
piece Of work as secretary of state, in
that he had secured the signature of
about thirty treaties between the Uni.
ted States and other countries, re.
Quiring that unsettled disputes should
be submitted to impartial inquiry, and
that in all cases there should be an
interval of full year for mediation
or arbitration before resort to arms.
He very Justly says that n.the issue
between Austria and Serbia had thus
been dealt with. the present war would
have been avoided. We are certain.
ly bound by our own treaties and pro.
posals; and it Is impossible to i'm.
agine that this country would go to
war upon any defined issues without
being willing to adopt the method Of
settlement which we have been urging
upon the entire world for just such
emergencies.-From THE Progress OF
the World" in the American Review
of Reviews for July.

Working the Old Gag.

The standpat wing OF the Repub-
lican party is actively engaged in work.
ing the old gag, that Republican. ad-
ministration means prosperity. firm in
the belief that the ignorant and nm
thinking form a majority in this coun.
try.
The Hoquiam Washingtonian quotes
= Charles P. Spooner. who returned
to Seattle last week from q trip in
the east, as saying:
with the uncertainty Of legislation,
followed by war, we were simply
plunged into q depression" says Mr..
Spooner Having recovered from q
series Of legislative attacks which have
prepared the country for a republican
victory, the business men of this coun-
try are figuring now only on the time
the European conflict ends"
To which the Hoquiam Washington.
ian approvingly adds:
There is no question that republi.
can success in the elections will have
q stimulating effect, on the country's
prosperity. In spite Of adverse legis.
lation the country has recovered in
some measure from the shock, but the
final essence that shall give life TO
business is the return Of political san
ity and the encouragement that repub-
lican policies give to business inter-
ests."
Mr.. Spooner should be more defin-
lite and certain, as the yawyers say.
and specify the Democratic "legis.
lative attacks" which have prepared
the country to again intrust the ma.
ton to the party which was repudi-
ated in As states at the last national
election. He should state just what
in his opinion has happened to cause
such vast majority to admit its
mistake and reverse itself. General.
tiles will no longer be accepted.
The Washingtonian. too, should be
more explicit. What adverse legis-
lation" has shocked the country. and
what Democratic laws II would have
repealed? The Tariff law? The Eu-
ropean war has given 10 protection
beyond the fondest dreams of the late
Mark Hanna. The currency legisla.
ton?
1t 10 q matter of common knowledge
that II it were, not for the currency
law this nation would now be in the
throes Of the most severe financial
stringency in its history. Reduced to
q common denominator, our Republi-
can friends seem to have to offer only
the restoration of the old partnership
between corrupt politics and corrupt
business.

Ready to Use Force.
The president realizes that the ex.
ecution Of his program may require
the use of force. He is prepared to
authorize it.
He is hopeful, however, that it will
not be necessary. He believes that
through recognition of a provisional
government 1t will be possible for
that government to. otain ample funds
with which to recruit and support an
army. This will be the easier, be.

government may be performed expe.

must have been dispelled by the hearty

there has been misc0mprehension in

Appeals To- Lumber

b.
R. H. bowman. president of the
National Lumber Manufacturer As.
sociation, has issued the following ap-
peal to the members Of the associa.
ton:
Conditions in the lumber industry
have radically changed in the last few
years and will change still more in the
future. The oldtime methods Of manu-.
featuring and selling our product can
be used no longer. We must merchan.
die our goods in the same live, in.
telligent fashion as competing com.
'modities are merchandized or we will
lose much Of the market which we
have. heretofore depended upon. Still
further, we must do everything in our
power to extend present outlets for
lumber and develop new channels for
it. This requires careful study. we'll.
planned publicity and conscientious
service to the consumer, but-IT
MUST BE DONE.
"The lumbermen Of the country must
take greater interest in public az
fairs. Problems in legislation. taxa
ton. compensation, insurance, trans.
portation and many others are con.
stantly arising which will not be solved
fairly unless the lumbermen Of the
country and Of each community make
themselves heard and felt. It is use
less to talk and argue and let such
matters slide-and still worse to do
nothing to help the other fellow be-
cause your own immediate interests
are not affected. Next time it will be
your turn and he will not help you.
Then, too late, you will realize that
what hurts him, hurts you, and what
helps him, helps you. Nothing more
to the ultimate detriment Of the whole
Industry can happen than for one Sec
ton to be allowed to suffer because
of the petty jealousy or "go-it-alone"
policy Of another section. We must
PULL TOGETHER.
Every man worth of the name of
ZIMMERMAN must act in a big,
broad-gauged way in behalf of the en-
tire industry and give generously of
time, thought, energy and money to
the promotion of his own interests in
harmony with those of his fellows. In
short, he must come out of the woods
and BE A" MODERN BUSINESS
MAN"
