GREAT ACTIVITY IN
 U. S. SHIP BUILDING.
Effect of the War is Already Being Shown to this COuntry's
 Advantage.


 NEW YORK, Feb. 1O.-Great activ- ity is being shown in ship building along the Atlantic coast owing to the necessity for providing ships for the increasing trade. Ten ships are be- ing built here and enquiries are being made preparatory to the construction of many others. This is due in great measure to the inability of the ship building firms of the belligerent na- tions to turn out vessels fast enough for the American demand.

Can We Be Dragged Into
Trouble With canada2

Did you notice the elaborate preparations to escape
made by the German officer Van Horn, who blew up
that Canadian border railway bridget He retained
on his person the plans of the bridge and the re-
mainder of his dynamite caps and calmly went back
to his American hotel. There he was captured and
confessed.
It must have been great surprise to him that he
was caught with the goods on him* And it will be
very distressing to him now if trouble should arise
between the United States and Canada as to which
shall keep him in prison!
Incidentally that line between us and our Canadian
neighbors, unguarded for 100 years, will now, I'M
doubtedly, be put under strict military guard. No
body can blame the Canadians if they plant COM
pany of soldiers, with loaded rifles every bridge
crossing from the United States Nobody can blame
them if the black mzzes of machine guns stare at
every time we take squirt across the line We'd
do it ourselves under the same circumstances.
But it is all very dsconcerting and dscouraging
nevertheless. We like our quiet, Industrious, good
natured Canadian neighbors Their chickens never
bother and they never throw at ours. But s I'M
pleasant to hobnob over the fence with your neigh
Dor and know there's loaded common few inches
from your shins
Worse than that is the danger that some fellow
like this Van Horn will sneak in among our shrub
berry and hist brick through our neighbours WIN
dow It's not unnatural for folks to get excited under
such provOcation and let go their old cannon with in
discriminate damage to inocent folks next door and
none at all to the Van Horn guy.
A few reckless shootings across the border and
the rancor would rise on both sides. Heaven forbid
that it ever reaches that point.
Can we prevent it? Sure! By waking up to the
fact that strong campaign is to drag into this
war and by making it everastingly unpleasant for
the folks who are with beautiful nerve, conducting
the campaign in our very midst.

II You Can't Buy, Make

Opponents OF the ship-purchase measure have
changed their tune, or, rather, added verse to it.
Uncle Sam can't buy interned German ships without
"buying quarrel;" already, 125 foreign ships
have taken American registry, and hence there are
no ships to purchase.
Very good, let Uncle Sam build ships!
Fact No. l. Ships are needed, and the market for
American products is growing by leaps and bounds.
Fact No. 2: Uncle Sam has plenty of unemployed
men and ship be built in one to two years, some
kinds i'm less time.
Fact No. 81 Six months of the foreign war has
settled absolutely nothing, save that it is to be
long war and that those foreign nations and others
not at war, going to need products more and
more, month by month.
Would Uncle Sam become socialist, by building
such ships? He already builds ships.
Would Uncle Sam become socialist, by building
an American marine, not war? Nobody else
is doing it, and yet the necessity for it is growing
every minute.
Ii we were not afraid of giving excuse for those
senate gas-bags to waste time, we'd offer an
amendment to that ship-purchase bill. 1t would be
to increase the appropriation ten-fold. There's no
fool like an old fool who finds Opportunity sitting
in his doorstep early in the morning. and then goes
back and crawls into bed again because he's afraid
that somebody will call him names.
