repugnant TO the rights Of neutrals.
IA To the second quotation from the
letter Of February 10, we said that 1t
referred to the possible destruction OF
vessels suspected Of using the American
flag without warrant. But it did not limit
its warning TO the consequences OF IN
attack on an American ship assumed to
bc Aying the Stars and Stripes rs ruse.
II asserted very broadly this governments
intention "to. secure TO American citizens
the full enjoyment Of their acknowledged
rights on the high seas"
In his own case, when he was a pas
senger on British vessel last August,
Mr.. Colvin admits that he possessed rights
as an American citizen which any German
war vessel would have been bound TO
respect His status was the same as Mr..
Thrasher's status. If German submarine
had torpedoed the vessel and left the
crew and passengers to perish the United
States would have been right in protesting
in his behalf against that brutal violation
Of international law. 1t is even more
strongly impeled to protest In the
Thrasher case, since it had given Germany
explicit warning before the illegal warfare
Of the submarines on merchant vessels
began that II would not tolerate the kill
ing of American citizens in any circum-
stances in which the latter were clearly
entitled to safe conduct under the rules
of international law.

Interpreting Conscience.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Billy Sunday says he accepts the Bible
from cover to cover, yet his denials of it in
preaching and practice would fill a volume.
On conscience ne says: your conscience may
be wrong, just the same as your watch may
be wrong, and the only regulator-the only
guide-is the word of Cod
Thus Billy interprets the Bible in the light
of his own reason and Intelligence; hence he
is utterly deaf, dumb and blind TO parts of il.
st. Paul said: "My conscience also bears
me witness in the Holy Ghost" This shows
the high Office and connection Of conscience.
Swedenborg said: Conscience is the voice OF
God" There is nothing wrong about Gods
voice. II is always right But there are false
or counterfeit voices, as there are counter
feits in everything
Can any one imagine Billy Sunday appre-
ciating the advice of Christ to the rich young
man! He said it for all His disciples

Protection Against Trade Takers

Among the bills which the Legislature
should not fail 10 enact is Mr.. Stod-
dard's amendment to the penal law, pro-
hibiting the use in business of family
name not the real name Of a person con
Quoting the business, unless the name
descended with the business to the sue
cessors in interest. This is q measure
TO promote and enforce common decency
and honesty. The necessity for it may
be found in some of The Tribune's re-
cent exposures of certain trade Gus
toms" and in court actions maintained by
persons whose names, honorably known
in the business world, have been traded
on and misused by business takers.
II is unfortunate that the only protec
ton against such shabby tricks now lies

Two Big Fighting Ships.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: You describe the Pennsylvania as
"the greatest sea fghting machine aAoat"
But "The Toronto Star" says that the Queen
Elizabeth outelssses it in range and bore Of
guns end in speed What are the facts?
z. B. c.
New York March 81, 1915
1t is quite possible that both are right.
The Toronto Star" is right. according TO
"Brassey's Naval Annual" for the British
shin has l5-inch guns and makes twenty-five
knots 10 the Americans l4-inch guns and
twenty-one knots. On the other hand, the
Pennsylvania is 1000 tons the heavier, six
and a half feet the broader, carries much
the heavier armor and has twelve 14-inch
ard twenty-five 5-inch guns 10 the Queen
Flizabeths eight 15-inch and twelve 6-inch.
The question Of fighting power is an open
one but il may be susceptible Of being
answered in the Pennsylvania favor.-Ed. @.

JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS.

How any Democratic newspaper in
the State of Mississippi can cast slurs
and insinuations at Senator Williams
and endeavor to belittle him in the es.
timatlon of the public is beyond com-
prehension. He is a man that every
Mississippian with any State pride
should be proud of, for he has BROUGHT
more honor to the State by reason of
his native ability and high order of
craftsmanship than any other senator
laI member since the days of Lamar
and George. If they are incapable of
approaching his mental attainmepts
and craftsmanship, then they should
accept him at the valuation of other
sections, and in this valuation the
North is more profuse in its praise than
the South. That Mississippians should
dlscredit such a man is a reflection
upon themselves and not upon John
Sharp Williams.
Fractional politics alone are response
BILE for casting slurs at the mar who is
such a giant of Democracy and is doing
so much to perpetuate its principles
and make it a success, while others
masquerading under the name are knit.
ing the party every opportunity. The
Leader cannot believe that the prepon.
derance of public sentiment in Missis-
sippi is otherwise than favorable to our
honored senior senator. West Point

crease of $4O5. as or ADJ per cent.
If the information that has been fur.
n'shed from the City Hall is correct,
this reduction has been mainly due tc
"precipitating' a 20 per cent. reduc-
ton ln the wages of unskilled negro
labor, making it 81 to $I.25 a day-the
prevailing wage for this class of labor,
and to "precipitating' the City's con-
vets out of the Jail into the streets,
instead of keeping them confined at a
dead loss and expense to the community,
as in the past.
1t seem to the writer that if the in
formation furnished above is even an.
proxImately correct, both the com
muDlty and the new administration are
to be congratulated, and that no one
should feel otherwise.
Respectfully.
