ANOTHER MIR. ROOSEVELT, OR Is
III THE SAME?


During the war Of 1912 Great
Britain was just as active in destroy
ing international law as she is today.
One of the most llagrant cases on
record was the sinking Of the help
less American frigate Essex, COM
manded by the gallant Porter, in the
neutral harbor Of Valparaiso, Chile.
Admiral Farragut, who at that time
was midshipman on board the Essex,
always remembered this taste of
English cowardice and chicanery and
to the end OF his DAYS bitterly pro-
tested against Great Britain's dis
regard Of law and true sportsman
ship.
1t has remained for Theodore
Roosevelt to defend Great Britain
even in a case like this where she is
caught red handed. In Vol. vi, on
page 108, OF "A History Of the Royal
Navy" by VIM. Laird Cloves, Mr.
Roosevelt, without any Of the molly
coddle's pussyfooting, boldly pro-
claims that England was altogether
right in destroying the American
craft.
Captain Hillyard did, Of course,
break the neutrality laws" writes
Mr. Roosevelt, 'in circumstances
which made their violation peculiar
ly irritating; for he paid respect to
them as long as Porter was in good
fighting trim, and broke them the
minute the enemy was crippled and
could be attacked with safety. But
as yet respect for international law
does not stand on a level with re-
spect for the law of ones own land;
and the chief thing to be considered
is whether the irritation caused by
the violation Of neutrality will COM
pensate for the advantage gained
In this case the capture OF the Essex
certainly compensated for an injury
done to the feelings of Chile"
Now at last we understand why
Theodore Roosevelt and his friends,
Ike Robert Bacon and Elihu Root,
for instance, are so deeply concerned
over the violation of Belgium neu-
trality, the sinking of the munitions
laden Lusitania, the Zeppelin raids
on the fortress of London, and SO
little concerned over the destruction
Of American commerce, the seizure
OF American mails on neutral ves-
sells, the blacklisting of American
business men, the blockading Of
American harbors by British war
ships and other wrongs too numer-
GUS to tabulate here. The reasons
are obvious.
Roosevelt and Bacon and Root are
first Of all Englishmen, English
ruled and English led" American
interests are always secondary to
these unhyphenated citizens. 1t is
only the "hyphenates" who really
care for America We may depend
upon the others only to insist that
Great Britain has the right to sink
helpless American warships In neu-
trail harbors, and violate American
rights on land and sea.

1HE BOOK THE PUBLIC WAS
WAITING FOR.
Frederic Franklin Schrader's Ger
man American Hand Book"

"The German American Hand
Book" lust published by Frederic
franklin Schrader hits the bull's eye
sduarely II fills long felt want and
the thought that comes instantly to
the readers mind Is why has such
book never before been put on the
market?
Mr.. Schrader's practical and SER
viceable volume is q golden treasury
Of facts, data, information and his
tory concerning that vast body Of
Americans who are proud to be
called German American. The rec
ord OF every German American since
America was discovered, his place in
the sun of American development,
his service as q settler, his unstinted
devotion to the cause Of American
freedom in the days Of '76, his cour-
age in the war Of 1879, his partici-
patton I'm the Mexican campaign, his
extraordinary and vital sacrifices in
the Civil War on both sides; in short,
his entire career as soldier and pio-
neer is contained In Mr.. Schrader's
pocket encyclopedia. The German
Americans Importance in the fields
Of peace and civilization Is likewise
chronicled by a brief history con-
tanning all the essential facts, Of each
| American Of Teutonic blood whose
achievements are worthy Of notice.
But "The German American Hand
Book" does not contain only the ac-
count OF American Germans in the
United States 1t goes far beyond
that All the opochs in American
history which concern the German
| Americans are succinctly recorded.
For instance, the record Of each SEN
ator and Representative on the
McLemore resolution Is tabulated
and will no doubt be frequently con-
suited on election day. What Roose-
welt said about the German Amer
leans, what Hughes and Wilson said
about them, what the attitude of
! leading American statesmen from all
sections Of the country is towards
| the German American, are set down
in black and white SO that all men
may read.
DO you know how many German
! Americans fought in the Civil War?
! DO you know who are the German
| American Captains OF Industry? DO
you know how many votes are cast
| by the German Americans? Do You
] KNOW HOW many Nci i'"tIA" NhHi5 "rSN
/ to the United States2 Do you know
the name Of that United States Sen
ator who wanted to deprive Amer
leans OF the right Of petition because
German Americans were appealing to
! their Congressman to save the coun-
! try from war? These are only few
Of the vital questions fully answered
in Mr. Schrader's unique compen-
dium OF facts, history and indispens-
able information. Copies may be
procured through The Fatherland.
Price SO cents, postpaid.

THE EMPTY STOCKING.

Oh, Little Boy Blue. with your won
derful eyes
That are filled with tears and a
panied surprise;
Your childlike faith Is shattered and
torn,
For that little old stocking hangs
empty and worn.
Empty just as you hung it there
On Christmas eve when you knelt In
prayer;
And that prayer came up from your
heart because
You learned to believe in Santa Claus.
And standing there with your tear
dimmed eyes,
Perplexing questions to you arise;
Why should the children across the
way
Have their stockings filled this Christ
mas day?
Was that lisping prayer you said in
vain,
Can your broken faith be healed
again?
Can it be because you know want and
care,
That santa's forgotten your stocking
there?
on. dear nttle boy. II only knew
Just what to say to comfort you
just what to do to ease the aches
That grip your heart till 1t almost
breaks!
can only hope that In coming years,
No friendless child will awake in
tears,
Because by the fireside cold and bare
An empty stocking is hanging there.
Exchange.

PRICE OF BRITISH VESSEL
MULTIPLIED MANY TIMES

London. Dec. IA vessel has just
been sold for 200 times her value sew
eral years ago. AS a shipping invest
ment the deal represents the largest
profit made during the war.
A few wears ago a British steamer
which had stranded on the South
American coast was sold, as she lay,
to neutrals for 1.5G0 pounds. The pur-
chasers had her refloated and repaired
and. employed her in trade. She has
now been resold for 100000 pounds,
being 200 times the price paid for her
as a wreck.
This price takes no account Of the
cost of salving and repairi-.; the ship,
but presumably these expenses would
have been amply covered by her earn
lngs since she was salved. including
two years of extremely high freights.
The present price merely represents
the current value OF tonnage.
