SEEING GERMAN SHIPS.

The British nation in general isn't much gyen to talking of the penalties it going impose ermany as it two years ago. six months ago. Most Enslishmen who amount to anything have stopped talk ing and settled down to fighting. The British Navy League however. goes right It's latest announce ment is to the effect that when the ends Germany will be compelled to replace ton, all the chant ships sunk by U-boats.
 This is a natural and excusabc dream It would not only restore vast onnagethe British losses alone amount between 100000 and 3,OOO,OOO tons, than entire foreign shippingbut it would cripple Germany that she would be helpless years in competition with England.
 The British Navy League, however in its enthusiasm overlooks somewhat important factor Before Germany turns her ships make good her foes losses will be necessary to lick Germany. It will be not only to fight her sandsti but drive her armies back their borders and crush all ssance The last thing the Kaiser will surrender is his merchant fleet.
 When the British Berlin it will time to talk of such reprsas And if they don't hasten their present rate of progress. all the ships will be rotten fore they get there.

STATE BY STATE.

Neither for prohibition for woman suffrage does federal amendment necessary Slowly but surely the gain is being made state by state In twelve states women voting before November '. South Dakota has swung definitely into the suffrage column making thirteen This is gain of eight per upon the previous number And it raises the number of states voting from 25 per the whole 27 the addition of each state the suffrage column adds to the chances Of other states because adds its bit the general weight of public opinion on that subject
 The prohibition gains are even more striking Five states been swinging from dry, mak the total 2S nearly half of the whole number There is gain of a fourth the previous number.
 The startling gain in every way is that of Mich: gan always been contended that states contain ing large cities would not dry Yet Michigan contain ing Detroit with its phenomenaly growing population, nearly SOOOOO has done it.
 Moreover, Michigan is heavy producer of grapes
 There is this in explanation that the newcomers who have doubled Detros size brief time chiefly laborers of high degree of skill Most of the automo bile producers insist upon sobrety their help And if cant drink and keep his job anyhow, what's the having saloons around to tempt him? Just waste of mental energy resisting.

 The general conclusion is that people really reforms, they get them. Moreover. when they get them because the majority has thought the whole situation for itself and decided of the move. the reforms usually stick and prove useful. The minority try to violate the law but it reproduce the old bad conditions.

TAM M ANY.

Tammany is dead-again. But this time Tammany little deader than usual Just as surely as New York state has lost the political balance of power in the nation, Tammany has lost the balance of power New York state
 New York City gave President Wilson plurality O. only about 10000 instead of the normal 75O00 and promised 100000 and the democratic gubernatoria candidate still less It isn't evident that Tammany be- trayed Wilson and Seabury. Tammany simply couldn't deliver the goods Whether there treachery or the part of Tammany leaders" remarks the York World, their disloyay could have had no important bearing the result"
 The conclusion is that New York is done with Tam many. Voters will followed it. Mir. Murphy's or ganzation tries to maintain a sembance of life and to go through of the of vitality but it is living corpse. It still collects campaign funds It still absorbs campaign funds after fashion but there political functions cease"
 It's good for New York, still more so for the rest of the country whose political aspirations many has often helped to tllwart.
