A VOICE FROM THE SOUTH.

The Petersburg, (Va) Daily Prog
ress says
Deplorable as the execution by
the Germans of Captain Fryatt, the
English commander of a merchant
ship, may have been, it was not re-
prehensible as was the execution by
the British of the Irish editor and
his companions.
There was some justification,
from the German standpoint, for the
execution Of Captain Fryatt, but
there could be no justification of
the murder Of the Irish editor In
Fryatt's case, the Germans did give
him trial, but in the case Of the
Irishmen referred to, the British
gave no trial, but they were sum-
marily shot, being refused even the
boon of sufficient time to pray. It
is true that the Enilish Captain who
ordered their execution was court
martialed, and he was declaced In
sane-a whitewash.
we are satisfied that atrocities,
OF more or less serious character,
have occurred in territory occupied
by the Germans, but to no greater
extent, in our opinion, than have
been perpetrated by Great Britain
and her allies.
For this reason we fail to see
the justice of condemning Germany
alone.
The fact is particularly the
present European war--is all that
General Sherman said it was, and in
the heat of passion all the belli-
gerent nations have violated the
laws OF nations and the laws Of
Cod"

Many Return to the Fold.

The 1917 fiscal year will make n glow
ing chapter In the history of American
railroad affairs in other respects than
earnings. There Is every prospect that

probably grace the 1917 chapter rs sue

Chicago's Chinese Loan.

Chicago bankers did not think much
Of foreign government financing when
the $500. 900. 900 AnElo-French loan was
put on the market a year ago. Only one
OF the large Chicago institutions was a
subscriber to II. Canvasses OF investors
made by the Chicago banks showed that
their customers In the middle West were
not likely to take the bonds OF the
hands OF the banks. But hat invest
ment sentiment has veered around to-
ward foreign securities In evident enough
now that Chicago has taken q IS. 900, 900
Chinese loan. Reports from the West
yesterday were to the effect that the
loan Is popular. One Chicago banker
was quoted as saying that he believed
the Chinese loan would be followed by
other foreign issues ~ the result OF
rapid accumulation Of capital there. and
that Chicago would become one of the
worlds financial centres in the broadest
sense OF h word. Another character
lied the transaction as one OF the great
est achievements In the history OF West
ern banking. saying: at shows we are
standing on our own legs. and becom-
Ing a worlds financial centre"

Plans for the financial reimbursement Of
the Texas n Pacific are being rapidly
shaped by tho bankers and will probably
make their appearance this week. They
contemplate neither assessment nor radl-
cal reformation. In Il sense the Federal
charter of the company. which will be
preserved. prccludes any extreme meas
ures. II IL believed the plan will prove
acceptable. One banker says stockhold-
ers and income bondholderx will have no
cause for complaint. The bankers who
arc drawing up the plans are also the
manager of the Missouri Pacific. which
WINS over 96 per cent. OF the T. and +.
income bonds, on which no interest has
been paid since 1908. The assumption Is
tina any plan which will be satisfactory
to the majority holder will be acceptable
to the comparatively Insignificant minor

one of the houses had this TO say Of

temporary activity . number OF motor
car and truck propositions. having ex-
istence only on paper and In advertise
ments. the object being not to make
cars. but to get the money Of people Of
moderate means and little investment
experience. These exploitation and
stock jobbinG propositions should. OF
course. be carefully avoided by In
yestors. Some Of tho faithless money
getting schemes have been exposed. and
probably this situation has had some
effect on the prices of substantial motor
stocks In the last month or two"

meadows, and then the fields burst
into veritable sunrise of gold and
blue. The hills, the dales and even
the desert wastes becomes such a
harlequin universe of color that we
long to reproduce it and dream of
the day to dawn when Natures colors
will take the place of the black and
white of the screen.
When was a child, / could never
understand why certain beautiful
plants were called field weeds" while
others were distinguished as garden
flowers" for those dandelions,
daisies, goldcnrod and Wild mustard
were just as attractive to me as
roses, carnations or violets. Some
times, after going through the hot
houses, ! long to see a wind-blown
dandelion meadow, even though the
cry of the farmer is a lament be-
cause this cloth of gold spreads too
rapidly and chokes out the crops with
its sturdier growth.
Many of my earlier memories are
of flowers-of flowers cherished in
our own garden, flowers begged
from neighbor's garden, or coveted
flowers in those gardens whose high
walls kept us children out.
Children are always so unhappy
when they are witnesses to the death
of flowers, and that is why they so
eagerly press them between the
leaves of their school books, hoping
to keep them eternally alive.
/ remember one rose my grand
mother had given me. It was deli
cately pink, exquisitely perfumed. and
while it was still in its lwaxen bloom
! pressed it in the family Bible and
dreamed because it was there it could
never die. But alasl a few days
later all that was left was handful
of withered brown petals, which car
ried only faint memory of my regal
rose.
All children have this instructive
love for flowers, and if it were en-
couraged and cultivated by sympath-
etic mothers it could be potent and
esthetic force in their lives. The
more we train children to fill their
lives with rosebud thoughts, the less
they will turn to thorny sadnesses.
Studying the world flowers, we be-
come conscious of the power and
,entleness of their Creator, for God
must be good and kind to put so
much divine color and beauty into
the world. Then it is we realize that
it is ourselves who have brought the
existing sinful ugliness into being.
Sometimes dream of having a
garden of my own, an old-fashioned
garden, with little brick walks, which
will be filled with single violets, dusky
heartease, forget-mc-nots, mignonette.
hyacinths, moss roses, fuchsias, sweet
Williams and ollyhocks.
