The New U-Boat War.

In his attacks the Administrators foreign
policy, Mr.. Hughes has devoted most of his
attention to Mexico. His attacks on Mr.. Will
comparatively has been light This may be due
to a belief by Mr.. Hughes that Mr.. Wilson's
mistakes in Mexico have been more serious and
more numerous than his mistakes in the U-boat
troubles 1t is more likely however that Mr..
Hughes believes the American people more
interested in the Mexican muddle than in American
rights on the and our relations with Ger
many.
1t is true that at present the public to
be apathetic about Germany's submarine warfaf,
and the destruction of neutrals that results. The
statement by Lord Crewe to the British Parlia-
ment that seven merchant ships, including four
neutrals recently have been torpedoed in viola
ton of Germany's promises to the United States
has created no excitement And apparently be-
cause OF a seeming lack of interest on the part
of the people, the State Department has taken
no action in protest against the destruction of
neutral ships without warning.
But unless President Wilson does act with
a view of holding Germany to her agreement
with the United States, Mr.. Hughes may be
expected to devote more of his speeches to the
as it is being conducted now, Mr.. Hughes may
be provided with strong basis for attack. The
cry of the Democratic party, "He has kept US out
OF war;" should hold true until November at
least Yet Mr.. Wilson is record promising
the people OF this country that there shall be
no more killing of Americans on the seas.
In an address to Congress, the President made
1t clear that all attacks on unarmed neutral ships
were repugnant to this country. He said:
Whatever the disposition and intention of
the imperial German government, it has mani
festly proved impossible for it to keep such
methods of attack upon the commerce OF its
enemies within the bounds set by either the
reason or the heart of mankind"
However, it is now apparent that Mr.. Wilson
expects to take action unless the attacks
by C-boats result in the killing of Americans.
In this position, the administration has re-
ceded from the firm stand taken in the Sussex
case when these words were used in the "ulti-
matum" to Germany:
Unless the Imperial government should now
Immediately declare and effect an abandonment
OF its present methods OF submarine warfare
against passenger and freight carrying vessels,
the government of the United States can nave
no choice but to sever diplomatic relations with
the German Empire altogether"
There many Republicans who believe
Mr.. Hughes has toned down" his attacks on
the policy toward Germany to await that day
when events would show that our relations with
Germany still are such as to be greatly en-
dangered overnight. A single torpedo dis
charged from German U-boat might bring
the relations of the two countries to the
breaking point again. and if the U-boat war
is not conducted with care that Germany
has been gutless of heretofore Mr. Wilson
may find it more difficult to maintain friendly
relations with Germany than ever before

In making Germany has shown herself
the most efficient nation. The nations opposing
her rapidly are developing an equal efficiency, but
when the war is over German efficiency probably
will be remembered longest. In the praise Of
German efficiency most Americans seem to
have forgotten American efficiency. But statistics
show that in protecting the lives of workers

man In the Railway Age-Gazette, H. w. Faus
diseIoses that in 1913 in Germany 81 trainmen
were killed per 1000 employed, while in America
81 were killed per 1000 employed. 1t also is
pointed out that since 1911 the percentage of
killed in this country has steadily decreased
while in Germany it has steadily increased
Today it is estimated, the percentage of killed
in Germany is double the percentage in this

Both sides to the railroad controversy must
Understand u that general railway strike would
w,anton outrage. If it should begin, the immense
6o loss and suffering which would instantly be in
% i.e,ed by it would be left to justify the Presi-
government in order to prevent further wreck
age. We do not believe that it will to
ttnat or that President Wilson will need to go
iuIiher than to make direct official appeal to

tation.-New York Evening Post.

President Wilson is not going to take to the
stump because he believes such a course would
be inconsistent with the dignity of his position
This announcement is likely to cause some con-
fusion in the minds of the people as to what is
really meant by dignity. In seeking the Prcsi-
dency, Mr.. Wilson certainly did not allow dig
nifty to keep him off the stump. Therefore, it
may be asked, why should he allow dignity to
handicap his efforts to retain the Presidency. Mr.
Hughes said that the dignity of his position as
a Supreme Court Justice prevented him from
discussing politics in any way. But within
few minutes after he dropped the robe of office
he dispatched political message so hot it almost
burned the wires. Perhaps there is no one who
will deny that Mr.. Hughes derived political bene-
mt from dignity and perhaps there are many
who expect Mr.. Wilson to derive political benefit
from dignity But when man in high office
says that he cannot do this or that because OF
the dignity of the office he will receive little
criticism. Perhaps the worst that he need ex-
pect is speculation as to whether he has an
ulterior motive and speculation usually is harm
less

SPEAKING ABOUT THE CABLE.

Speaking of the government cable being out of commission again yesterday, brought to mind little incident of few days previous The in- cident we have reference to was ths On the day the steamer Alameda sailed from Seattle on her last voyage north our correspondent filed at the Seattle cable office report of it's depart ure, list of passengers together with other news items. Apparently, the cable went out of com mission immediately after the filing of the items. However that may be, we received no news that day nor the next and not until the Alameda ar rived in port did the news of her departure reach us through the government cable The news evil dently had been held either at Seattle or at Sit ka and at least forty-eight hours, and by reason of the arrival of the steamer, had become no news at all. The local operator was notified and at the same time was requested to refund the charges. The latter obligingly wired the re- quest to the head office at Seattle; and what do you think the reply was? You never can guess. We'll, in substance it was something like this: "If the Progressive-Miner refuses to accept no more press news will be sent it." And yet they tell us that the people rule.
 Imagine, if you please how long a private en- terprise would last should it's employees become such asses as to answer the patrons with such intolerable impudence.

THE COOLERS.

There is a certain class of men in nearly every community who have the habit of trailing wet blanket as it were, that they use to cool off any proposition or even suggestion with. Let little progress be suggested and while in their minds they may approve of it, nevertheless they will immediately throw the wet blanket over it by trying every which way to find defects and will resort to subterfuges in order to carry out their point. It does not matter bit what the prop Osition may be either. Objections they will find
The daily progressive-miner., 1916-06-28

Such men are drags to community. As gen eral rule they are neither wise nor successful and they become worse as they get older until they even throw the blanket over their own do- ings. And at the age when they should know better, you find them with the belief that they possess mountain of wisdom when as matter of fact they haven't even lien on wisdom. Yes indeed, it takes all kinds of people to make a world.

The coupelet Is made with the ex-
