THE LUSITANIA CRIME.

That the wanton slaughter OF nearly
$50 Americans, il it prove to have
been done by a German submarine as
indicated. will not go unquestioned,
no one who has carefully followed
President Wilson's policy in the Eu-
ropean cataclysm will doubt for a
moment
The attitude Of the whole country
seems to be profound contentment
that in the present dangerous crisis,
the man at the helm of affairs pos
sesses a cold, clear head and main
tains - unimpassioned vision or thu
event
The danger Of forming an opinion
upon too hastily considered data is
very obvious, while we can lose moth
Ing by refraining to rock the boat
and exercising with as little difficulty
as w can, such patience as W. may.
When tn evidence has been bro
cured and an exact knowledge Of all
circumstances surrounding the sink
ing Of the Lusitania attained, there
will be plenty of time to act and that
action will be more pointed and more
effective
Just now the sorrow OF ii ID that
persons are found in this country
who, assuming that German subma-
rine was responsible for sending to
the bottom hundreds of unoffending
non-combatants including more than
hundred OF their fellow citizens
seem to take kind OF satisfaction I'LL
the dastardy act.
Most Americans however will find
IT hard to forgive or forget the dread
full deed when the perpetrators are
called to account.
