A WANTON
INSULT.

The 10000 kilograms with which
Congress has been deluged, protesting
that there is no reason for any con-
troversy with Germany, are evidently
in response to the circular telegram
which is said to have been sent by the
Gerlnan-American Alliance to all the
German-American societies in New
Jersey, and, we presume, in the United
States. Three thousand of them arc
said to have been sent from Elizabeth
in response to an appeal, which pur-
ports to come from the Gcrman-Am-
crican Alliance, in which Mr.. Wilson
is termed "our Gern1an-hating Presi-
dent"
The Philadelphia Record voices the
opinion of all wcll-disposed people
in the United States where it sug-
gests that there is not one particle
of justification for this description of
the President. The sinking of mer-
chant steamers, by torpedoes, without
warning, resulting in great loss of
life among non-combatants, is a clear
violation of the law of nations and
the law of humanity. The fact that
many of the victims are Americans
gives our Government the right, and
imposes upon it the obligation, to
insist that Germany's war OH British
commerce shall be conducted in &C
cordance with the law of nations.
That is all the excuse there is for
fenouncing Mr.. Wilson, as "our
German hating President"
We cannot believe that any large
part of the German-Americans APP
prove of this wholly and obviously
unjust and wanton insult to the Prcsi.

weak points i'm its armor. That was 3
part; of Napoleon's program, a 4laa
earlier the Stuart claimants to the
English throne tried to find a gate
way through Scotland for their am am
,bition, counting on national prejudices
and the recollection of ancient wrongs
And in the present struggle it has
been one of the German Emperor's
dreams to stir up disaffection and
rebellion in one Or more Of the coun-
tries in which Great Britain became
dominant originally by force. He has
attempted it in Egypt, in South Afrl-
ca. in india, and now in Ireland, ana
all without substantial success. He,
has run over large part Of Europe,
but Great Britain remains intact.
Wherever he has touched a British
possession his proud wave of con-
quest has been stayed. Even Ireland:
which England has treated with less
justice than any other territory that
has come to her arms, would think
twice, if she had the choice, before she
would exchange British tyranny"
for German freedom.
After all, whether we love Great
Britain or not, we must admit that
he has a genius for government.
The Germans know how to govern
themselves, but they have never
shown the ability to govern others.
The British nationalize what they
conquer, and finally make it even
more British than themselves. They
often blunder grossly, but they learn
from their blunders. From conquer
ed nations they have built up an en-
pire bound together by community
of sentiment, quickened by some
thing like spiritual unity: very
strong and wonderful piece of work
which other world-conquerors have in
vain attempted to demolish.

LIKELIHOOD
OF WAR.

As has been stated in the Gazette
it is pretty well understood so far
as human judgment can discern that
there is no prospect of an immediate
break with Germany. Not even a sew
erence of diplomatic relations at this
time is probable. The prospects seem
brighter today, judging from dis
patches from London, Berlin and 9TH
CT European cities. What the future
ultimately holds in store to be mctcd
out with or without warning is en-
tirely another question. But as the
United States and Germany have
several times of late ferried their de-
licate relations on thin ice without
accident or serious jar, it is not in
probable that the worlds greatest
war may be ended with diplomacy
triumphant and this nation without
the scare of strife, AS is said By the
Danville Register, Germany has on
hand a job much greater than She
anticipated, one that taxes her every
energy, and is not counting an add
tional foe with the resources of this
country and the German government;
will go long way to meet the dc
mands of the United States, short OF
weakening its position with its owr
! people. On the other hand the Unite,
| States does not desire war with Ger
many.

of war and the other has no rca

CHARLES BRYAN
A BOLTER.

Charles Bryan, brother Of William
Jennings Bryan and favorite candi-
date of the latter for Governor oil
Nebraska, was defeated decisively IN
the Democratic primaries OF that
State. Now he announces that he will
accept the populist nomination and
do all can to defeat the Democratic
nominee chosen by the majority OF
Democratic voters to whom the issue
between them was submitted. AS
suggested by the Richmond journal,
it seems to be the habit of members
of the Bryan. family to regard them
selves as so superior to the rest OF
humanity that they may not only dis
regard party laws and obligations
but ignore such small matters as per-
sonal honor and good faith and the
sanctity of a contract. William >.
Bryan has bolted his parity nominal
tion in Nebraska on former occasions.
In the Baltimore National Democratic
Convention, four years ago, he re-
pudiated the instructions on which
he had been elected delegate and
reversed the expressed will of those
who elected him.
What seems to be the Bryan habit
if accepted, would be destructive not
only of party organizations but of the
whole idea Of majority rule. The man
who goes into primary election,
makes distinct, and in some respects
solemn, bargain with his fellow citi-
zcns who participate with him. Ec
promises to accept and abide by the
decision of the majroity as oppressed
at the polls and expects the other
participants to do likewise. He has
as much right to repudiate an honest
debt or to disregard any other pro-
misc he may make in the course OF
business, social or political inter
course as he has to violate his pri-
mary pledge. The organs apparently
do not look at it that way. They
hold that when they are success
ful in a party contest everybody is
bound to stand by them; but if they
arc unsuccessful they have the right
not only to oppose the winning candi-
dates but 10 take active and unfair
means to defeat them.
a As political factors IN The Demo.
cratic party and in the country the
organs are causing themselves to dis
: appear with remarkable swiftncss.

Uncollected Taxes,

If necessary to do SO, a city adj
in Augusta can carry UNI
collected taxes as an asset at the close
of the fiscal year instead of recording
the taxes as collected and in the form
Of cash on hand or expended as a
credit. The Newbert administration
upon retiring from office found it ne
cessary to adopt this method in a
most astounding degree, for the 1915
taxes assessed but unsolicited on Feb.
%, 1915, were recorded as an asset in
the sum Of s20,975.21.
The Viles administration has proved
itself far more efficient in the business
Of collecting taxes and upon Feb. 80,
1916, only $6.777.39 Of taxes assessed for
1915 remained uncollected.' The lax
methods employed in 1914 SO preju-
diced the possibility Of collecting the
1914 taxes without difficulty that even
at the present time ss.o49.76 of taxes
assessed for 1914 is still uncollected.

Wilson's Joint Debate.

Immediately after his return from
his preparedness stumping tour, one
of President Wilson's enthusiastic ad-
mirers in the Senate procured the
passage of a resolution providing for
the printing--at public expense~Ao of
many hundred thousand copies Of Mr.
Wilson's speeches on that tour. The
Government Printing Office put them
in type and sent the proofs to the
White House. There they were found
to contain so many conflicting and
contradictory statements that they
resembled Joint debate, rather than
the utterances Of a single politician.
Weeks have passed and there the
proofs remain, while Mr. Wilson burns
the midnight oil trying so to edit them
as, specifically at least. to reconcile
his conflicting statements.

Auausaa's Emergency Fund.

''The $4,000 abatement allowed in 1914
to the Edwards Mfg. Co. was taken from
this fund Emergency as matter Of
bookkeeping. Mayor Newbert's Joke
Sheet.
BY what right? There was pro-
vision made in the abatement appro-
priation for the $4,000. They took
$4,000 out of the emergency fund
without right and took the $4,000 ap-
propriated for the Edwards abatement
and distributed it among other items
giving them $4,000 additional to
spend. It was wrong.
Mr. Newbert says: THE emergency
fund was larger when I left Office by
$3Ss.50."
The facts as shown by his own re-
ports are:
On page 81 Of the City Report for
tho year ending March /. 1913. the
fund is given as $11,61o.27.
