Attack on Snobbery. - Secretary
Daniels has done a mighty good
thing by making it possible for en-
listed men to get into the naval acad-
envy at Annapolis and thus have a
chance to become officers. Gibson
Gardner tells us that there are now
in the academy six sailormen for the
first time in the history of the United
States
Political pull has created the no,
ton that officers shall come from the
upper walks of life" and this has
caused caste" in both navy and
army.
Daniels action is a blow to snob-
berry and it viii result in promoting

Human Life is Cheap.

The unnecessary deaths in factory fire in
New York last Saturday again emphasizes how
cheap is human life in the United States. We de-
plore the slaughter of thousands in the European
war, but are not stirred very deeply by the snuff

in the United States because Of criminal negli-
gence on the part of employers or officials who
do not enforce rigidly laws enacted for the pro-
lection of life and limb.
The sequel to the latest tragedy in New York
will be another inquiry and probe. Attempts will
be made to fix the blame; perhaps few men will
be sent to the penitentiary, perhaps not Then,

Splendid Laxative T."

Many Years.

The infirmities of age are especially
manifest in tendency to constipation
and call for treatment that will afford
relief in an easy, natural manner The
rapid action of cathartic remedies and
purgatives that shock the system
should be avoided, more especially as
the relief they offer is only temporary
and is usually more than offset by dis
turbance to the vital organs caused by
their violent action.
Nearly thirty years ago DR.. w. b.
Caldwell, Monticello. ILL.,, prescribed a
compound of simple laxative herbs
that has since become the standard
household remedy in thousands of
homes. 1t acts easily and gently. yet
with positive effect, without gripping
or other pain or discomfort. Mrs.
Rachel Allen, Galesburg, Kans, is sey-
enty-one years old, and after using a
bottle of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
wrote that it had done her a world of
good and that she intends to keep it

Next, Lord Kitchener!

AT the request of his colleagues Lord Kitch-
has left for short visit to the eastern thea
tire of war" ..
This is the laconic official explanation at Lon
don of the Disappearance" Of Lord Kitchener.
The London Globe sticks to its assertion that
Lord Kitchener has handed in his resignation.
The British government has raided the office Of
the Globe and seized copies of it's papers.
The impression prevails in London that Lord
Kitchener has gone to Servia to take charge of
the campaign in the latest theatre of war.
Secrecy surrounds the departure and mission
Of Lord Kitchener. With Nish in the hands of the
Central Powers, almost all of the railroads of Ser
via in the hands Of the Teutons, and direct line
of communication open between Berlin and Con-
stantinople it will take more than the strategic
and administrative ability of Kitchener to
change the course of events there.

$40, 600. 900 Paid by Suckers.

Uncle Sam is doing his best to conserve not

to be prolific as flies around molasses barrel.
During the last four years suckers" have do

UNFOLDING the Majesty Of the Law

Spectators attending the Hasemeier- Bentlage
trial violated the proprieties Of the circuit court
room yesterday when they Kissed and made such
q demonstration that Attorney johnson was un-
able to continue his argument before the jury.
The action of the audience cannot be condoned,
even with the excuse that no trial in the Wayne
circuit court has attracted such intense interest
and that prejudices were aroused and feeling
ran high. --~-.-Z
A court room is judicial chamber. Here
cold-blooded argument and not passion sways.
Here is the place where balanced judgment, re-
straint and logical minds are in order. Wild
demonstration for and against cause being
heard by jury is decidedly out Of order and
cannot be tolerated. Not mob rule but judicial
procedure and calm must prevail if justice is
to sway.
Judge Sparks did right in ordering the crowd
out of the room, but he made lamentable mis-
take when he did not back up his decision by
clearing the court room and letting Attorney
johnson finish his argument in the court room.
He ought not have taken the jury and attorneys
to the jury room, there to conclude the hearing
of the case. This showed weakness, and was a
tacit admission that the crowd had gotten beyond
his control. The Judge had at his back the entire
police authority Of the county and the city, and
the court room could have been cleared. The dig
nifty and majesty of the law was not upheld when
the court adjourned to the jury room. In fact,
the dignity of the court suffered in respect and
in the reverence with which it is to be held even
under trying times and when prejudices are
excited.
