baggageman at the depot, has
been released, his duties having
been taken over Thursday morn
ing by j. A. Sewell, who has
been operating the pumping sta

TO a smaller number of trains
coming on this line, the time
necessary for pumping was cut
down to three days a week, and
this Mr.. Sewell will do in add.
ton to the work done by Mr..
Butler. The merchants of the

see Mr.. Butler go, as he was one

The sinking of the Cnnard
1,pey Lnhitania lsstnaeeeone,, a
German submarine MARS an
other epoch in-the German idea
Of warfare. In one sense of the
word it is no different to their
usual policy, they having COM
menced this war with a series of
atrocities against the. Belgians
that stamped the Kaiser as either
utterly insane or else as the most
brutal of any ruler since the
Middle Ages. This policy of
brutality has been sustained
throughout the war, the Ger
mans having lost no opportunity
to inflict suffering upon the
women and children of both
warning and neutral countries.
Some weeks ago President Viii.
son announced that Germany
would be held to a "strict ac-
eountability" for any damage
done to American shipping or for
any American lives lost. Other
American vessels have been lie.
stroyed, but Germany has agreed
to settle the bill, but Germany
can not settle the bill so easily
for the 1888 Americans who lost
their lives in the sinking of the
Lusitania. At this writing it is
not Known what action the
United States will take, but that
there should be something done
is patent. German authorities
claim that they gave fair warn
ing concerning the dangers of
ocean travel, but what right has
Germany to assume contro, of
the hlgh seas. Their SHIPS put
into our ports and receive every
consideration. Two eff their
warships are at present Interned
here to save their capture by the
British, but the Kaiser takes no
more heed of American lives
that he did of the Belgian wo-
men aud children whose lives
his troops wantonly took. The
American nation is neutral IN
the best sense Of the word, but il
will not long remain SO if few
more atrocities such as this are
committed. Germany had bet
ter put on the soft pedal if the
Kaiser hopes to have us remain
neutral.
