Britain LET'S Submarine Question Rest.


Washington, d. C.--Unless instruct
ed to do so by the London foreign Of
flee, the British embassy here does
not intend to make any fresh repre-
sentations to the state department, as
1t regards the representations already
made in connection with the Deutsch-
land as sufficiently settling the British
view Of international law on the sub
ject.
From the British point of view only
two courses are open: either to con-
voy all British ships using American
ports where the ship is not sufficiently
armed TO afford full protection, or to
withdraw British ships from the
American trade.
The latter contains the possibility
Of much injury to American commerce

Keep The Town Clean

A clean town attracts attention
whenever and wherever it is seen
A dirty one catches the public eyes
in even less time.
When the streets and alleys and
yards and vacant lots in a town are
clean and sanitary IN bespeaks a like
condition on the part of the residents
with regard to their personal habits.
The lord loves a clean man or
woman, and the devil worships a
dirty one. Which do you prefer?
If each person in this town would
use just little more energy and
thOughtfulness we could make this
one of the cleanest spots in the coun
try and our reputation would grow
apace.
Not only would we benfit thusly,
but the health of the community
would be vastly improved and the
physical capacity of the people
would be greatly increased.
A clean man works with pleasure
aud with a definite object in view.
Generally he gets there
The dirty one labors from necessity
only has no ambition and Is the

harmony in the mobilization
camp of the troops of Kentucky
this morning. The storm broke
last night when sixty two men
from E Company First Regiment
of Louisville were to be sent
home almost stripped of their
clothing and uniforms they wore
to the camp because the State
holds each captain financially
responsible for ever partical of
equipment allotted each man.
Things have not been running
smoothly in the clmp for some
time aud considerable complaint
has been heard of the suffering
the disqualified men have had to
undergo to make the trip home.
The issue was brought to a head
last night when the detachment
from E company was stripped of
the most of their uniform before
they started for Louisville. Many
of the guardsmen wore no shirts
and some mad no socks g me
were worse clad in addition to
being subject to a driving rain
with little protection.
The manner in which the men
were about to leave the camp
and the very unfavorable impres
sion it would make on the citizen
of Louisville was brought to the
attention of Col. VIM. A Colston
commanding officer of She first
Regiment. Col. Colston soon
learned that it was within dlsore-
tion of the company commander
as to the manner the men were
to leave camp as he alone is held
responsible for equipment.
Col O lston rather than have
the meu return toLouisville IN the
condition they were in asked that
the captains be allowed to return
to their home station with the
detachment and then collect the
uniforms end return them to he
state.
He was informed that the state
would not pay the expenses G +
an officer to make the.trip.
Col. Oclston's answer was that be
fore he would allow these men to
leave this camp the money woult
be expended from the regiments
fund and if this was not available
he wonld pay for it personally.
When the men learned they
would be allowed to wear the
clothing they came up here with,
there was a mighty cheer for
Col. Colstou.
