The movement to make William Howard Taft

nation in 1916 is rapidly gaining momentum Orig
mating in the South, where Mr.. Taft has enjoyed
great popularity since the evening of November

Recent events may indcate~to Germany the
ACCESSIBILITY of new reply to our warning against
the destruction of American lives and property.
Germany sought to justify her operations against
merchant shipping, involving peril to American
ships,-by explaining that her so-called blockade
in retaliation for Great Britain's attempt to
prevent supplies from reaching Germany, and that
the danger to American ships was chiefly due to
the practice of British ships flying the American
flag by sanction of the government. Great Britain
has formally notified the United States that it has
not advised and has intention of advising the
general use of the American flag by merchant
ships. And to make matters worse an American
ship with cargo of cotton destined for a German
port is sunk by German mine when almost at
the end of her voyage. Not only has the fac
prctcnse been exposed, but it would appear that
Germany herself presents more serious obstacles
to commerce seeking her ports than Great Britain
does

 Some 800 dogs have been at work in the West where each of the Ger man sanitary companies have had four dogs attached to it, and the authorities there have decdied to dou- ble their number but apparently the East had been neglected.

Then suddenly l heard the snufring of a. dog, and we were soon very happy to see him poke his black head into the bulls eye window of the cellar. A wounded lieutenant of our party tore out the lining from his cap and stuck it in the dogs collar band, Several hours later sanitary officers with pio- neers came, one of them leading the dog by line and they liberated us from cur hopeless imprisonment The dog lea3od up with joy before the Eeptenant. am firmly convinced that we should all have perished in that cellar but for this dog"
