As for actual fighting by Americans
 tfat does not appea5 probable. It .a not likely that troops would be sent l against Germany and there is n9 probability hat the american fleet would draw the German navy from

 From the German standpoint. | might be considered that he kaiser's governmf Tt would gain advantaga from declaration of war by the United states, calculating fIat the plants now manufacturing supplies for the allies would be put sto Nor1 or contracts for the American gove yn- ment.

 He stood hefore Judge Gordon Rus sell, in the United States court at
 Beaumont Texas, to be sentenced for the theft of reg stered letters from 1 the mails. He made plsa for elem ency, stating that he was IT years of age. and had given the best years of his life to the government postal ser vice.
 He said he had been over ambitious for his children. and had given them advantages he could not afford. He pictured the m sery that would over take his wife and three children, who reside in Texarkana if he were sent to prison. He vividly described the sorrow and shame that would come 70 his W fe and childrel, because the world would be quick to hold up to them the crime of the husband and father.
 Judge, if ther s a chance to give me new grab on life wish you'd do It. HI be straight. I'll be homes. I'll make good" he pleaded
 Poor fellow, he was unabe to see himself in the light n which he was Viewed so clearly by court, jury and public. Judge Russell voiced the true situation when he imposed sentence. cit tat tnr 1, ID cc.iJ ', own inclinations he would never sentence aniyone. The judge pointed out that the former mail clerks thefts covered period of several years. and declared THE DISGRACE THE PRIS- OVER so FEARED WOULD COME NOT FROM THE SENTENCE, BUT FROM THE CRIME AND THE IN DICTMENT. There would be a chance to start anew, when the prisoner served his sentence. And then Judge Russell voiced another great truth, one showing the unjust attitude of the world 10 woman.
 "The world will not forgive a wom- an,' he said. but it will forgive man any hing"
 Now, here's a peculiar fact connect ed with the mail clerks thefts. The government secret service men dis covered, through fave letters sent to trap the thief, that the man showed cons deration for the needy. When the letters were from daughter to an lndlgnent mother. 1t was the clerks custom to reseal the letter with the contents and send it on.
 The man was moralv unbalanced. He permitted his desire to give his children advantages costing more than he could earn honestly to lead him to appropriate the property of others. And then. like so many other Of lenders, he couldn't see that the dis grace comes, not from the conse- quences of the act but from the act itself.
 | Like hundreds of others. he tried to shift responsibility for the dis grace to his family from himself to the court compelled to impose sen 'ence. Newspapermen are familiar with this attitude on the part of of renders through frequent requests to

n NE BLUFF O ROGRESS
 ROSPERITY
THE CONTROVERSY WITH
 GERMANY.

Whether there shall be break of diplomatic relations. and, possibls. war, with Germany depends entirely upon the attitude and future course of that government.
 The Washington administration has completed a strong case against the kaiser, and we imagine there must have been considerable surprise in the Wilhelmstrasse when it was learned there that the Americans had obtained such complete evidence of the guilt of German naval commanders. not to mention the evidence Of bomb and arson conspiraoies conc ived and car ried on in this country with the ac- quiesence # not under the direction, of the Berlin government.
 The United States does not desire a break with Germany; it does not seek war with any nation. That has been clearly proved. ;, In view of the evil dence, however, President Wilson has taken the only course possible to up- hold respect for America among the peoples Of the world and yet avert conflict .t1ss
 In the light of events occurring since the resignation of Mir. Bryan as secretary of state. there can be no ooubt that the mistaken policy of the erstwlile premier of the Washington administration was responsible for carrying us nearer the maelstorm of war If Germany had not suspected that the American nation was for peace at any price, greater consdera- ton would have been given the pro- tests Of this gov rnment. Bryan's action gave Berlin he idea that the American people would not stand be- hind President Wilson in a break Possibly. Berlin now sees it mis judged the American nation. Over enthusiastic pro-Germans in this country have also added to the diff fioulty of keeping out of the war by creating false impr ssrons as to the attitude of the people of the United States.
 Congress and the nation will stan l behind President Wilson. even should Germany force more aggressive ac- ton than has yet been taken.
 Just what would be the effec oi a declaration of war on Germany by the United States is to us not clear. Germany would suffer, of course. be- cause the United States would seize the big fleet of merchant vessels now inte. ned in American ports, and other neutral nations would doubtless take sidss with the United States 10 npholl the rights of neutrals on the seas. The effect Of this would be to increase the efficiency of the blockade of Germany hy the allies, in which the warships Of the Uinted States would probably aid
 The moral effect on the peoples of the helligerent countries would be SC great that it is doubtful if Germany and her allies could prosecute the war much longer. They would find: it practically impossible to obtain any of the needs they do not produce. arli could not hope for the aid they ara now receiving by being permitted fu obtain supplies from and through neutral neighbors.

UNITED STATES PROTESTS
AT BELGIAN DEPORTATION

Washington, Dec. 2.-Aeting on
its own behalf, the American gov
eminent has informed Germany
anew of its deep concern over the
deportation of Belgians from their
own country by the German military
authorities. This action has been
taken as a result of information
about the deportations gathered
from different sources and fruitless
informal efforts on behalf of the
Belgians made by American Charge
Grew at Berlin.
Germany has been informed that
the treatment of the Belgians has
made very bad impression in this
country and that the United States
cannot avoid taking notice of the
situation, basing its stand on the
broad grounds of humanity.

former President Taft in an address

the Adamson law is upheld, the
threatened railroad strike will be
enforced.
"It is a threat to starve the ma
ton into submission. The decision
resulting may be the proper one,
but the means contemplated are
wholly wrong. If we have a rail-
road strike. all forces of public
opinion and public action must be
called into play to force obedience.
