FIVE Ships SUNK
and CRISIS NEAR
NORWEGIAN RELATIONS WITH
GERMANY THREATENED BE-
CAUSE OF SEA POLICY.

London, Oct. 25.-The sinking by
German submarines of five more Nor
wegian steamships, valued at abou;
100000 kroner, is reported in an
Exchange Telegraph dispatch from
Christiania.
Shipping shares dropped consider
ably on the Christianla Exchange to-
day.
The steamers AliX and Rising and
the schooner Theodore, together with
the Swedish schooners Antoinetta
and Henriette. are among the latest
submarine victims, adds the dis
patch.
The Tidens Tegn of Christianl
states that one boat with six men
from the Norwegian steamer Ravm,
reported sunk by a German subma-
rine in the Arctic on October 2, has
been lost, while another boat with
eleven men on board reached a lone
ly part Of the Russian Thurman coast,
after drifting thirteen hours.
News agency reports from Copen-
hagen through London last night re-
ported that sensational rumors were
current regarding the relations be-
tween Norway and Germany Ger
man submarines were declared to be
waging a persistent war on Norwe-
gian shipping, and one account stated
that five German submarines had es-
tablished a regular blockade of the
Norwegian coast. The reply TO Ger
many's protest against Norway's
stand with regard 10 submarines in
Norwegian waters was still under
discussion, the advices added. but il
was said that the Norwegian govern
ment organ, in referring to the rela-
tions between Norway and Germany,
declared it might be assumed that
the German protest was so cOuched
as not TO bear the character of an Ill
timatum.

WILSON AND WAR.

Never before in the history of tho
United States has the campaign of a
candidate for reelection to the
Presidency been based upon his hav-
ing kept the country out of war dur
ing his first term. But not satisfied
with that cry this year Democrats
are saying that with a Republican as
President war is sure to come.
Now just what has Mr.. Wilson done
to keep the country out of war and
what war has he kept us out Of?
When he took the oath of office the
only international trouble confront
ing the United States was with Mex
leo and our grievance was the posi-
bility of battle along the border line.
We wanted to prevent the flying OF
stray bullets into this country be-
cause of possible injury to American
citizens. At that time the taking
of the life of an American. native
born or naturalized, meant some
thing. Mr.. Taft had dispatched
troops to the border to protect the
international line and at this stage
Mr.. Wilson assembled to the Presi'
dency.
Huerta was provisional President
of Mexico at this time but had new
er been recognized by the United
States. Then came the Tampico in
cident when several American ma
rines were arrested by Huerta sol
diers. The release of the marines
was demanded and complied with.
Admiral Mayo felt that the flag had
been insulted and demanded that
a salute be fired by Mexico. Presi-
dent Wilson backed up the Admiral
IN this demand. In the diplomatic
sauab bible that followed the admins
taiion statesmen came out second
best in the eyes of the world. Pres
ident Wilson ordered Admiral Fetch
er TO take Vera Cruz The capture
was effected after cannOnading by
the United States battleships and the
loss of eighteen American marines.
Imagine yourself the father, the
brother or some other near relative
or friend of one of those dead ma
rines. Would you have much pa
thence with the cry that Wilson has
kept us out of war?
Now, thought America, and the
world, Wilson will clean up Next
co and re-establish stable form
of government for our neighbor re-
public. Vera Cruz was found in a
deplorable sanitary condition and
was given a thorough cleansing by
Admiral Fletcher. The city was
held for a considerable length of
time but Wilson decided TO mediate
with the government he had never
recognized as a government. The
Mexican factions were invited TO take
part and the A. b. G. conference fol-
lowed
Vera Cruz was evacuated and the
demand that the Stars and Stripes
be saluted was forgotten. Thus were
we i'm war and out OF war without ac-
anything whatever with
the exception OF cleaning up Vera
Cruz and if our occupation of that
city waa a blessing would il not have
been "A blessing and a greater one
had we cleaned the whole repub-
lie?
Meanwhile under the "watcbful
waiting policy American women
were being raped and men, women
md children ruthlessly murdered

Judging from his address here
Senator James depends upon the
Grim Reaper as protection for
American industry after the Europe
an war. He said we had nothing to
fear from foreign competition after
the war because of the great loss of
life to European countries. The
Senator overlooks the fact there are
still enough men in the trenches and
at home to operate a few factories.
He also might have stated that wo-
men are filling the places of men in
Europe and will be even more capa-
BILE after the war. There are many
countries whose Presidents, or rul-
ers, have kept them out of war, -
too, and we will need more protec-
ton than the corpse of dead sol
der after this war is over.

JAPANESE STAGE CUSTOMS.
Actors and the Flower Path From the

The profession of an actor in Japan
is not considered high one. says Mr..

on the japanese stage, and on the
average they are not well paid. Still.
there are exceptions. when play Is
staged 1t runs at least for twenty
three consecutive days. For such a
term first class man would earn
about S1,200. and his annual income
may be estimated at $500. But it
must not be forgotten that out Of this
snm he must provide his own cos
tunes. which are very expensive.

see the attendants who are intrusted

OF proscenium box the reciter sits con-
cealed behind curtain of thin banl-
boo. There is no applause by clapping
hands. as in our theaters. but the pub
lie stimulates the actors by eXclama-
tons IN way that may be compared
to the encouraging and cheering of the
dancers in Spain.

COOPERATION. - A Day Book
philosopher asks: why don't dogs
marry? Why don't they give the
clergy a job?" They don't marry be-
cause it is their nature not to mate
or common-law marry.
A more pertinent question would
be: why don't men marry?" The
reasons are many, some of which
are intemperance, laziness, incapac-
ity, etc., but the main cause is the
lack of mutual aid practiced by the
workers. The adoption of a system
of universal cooperation, so that all
the products of labor would go to the
laborers instead of to the do-noth-
ings or do-littles, would enable all
the able-bodied to marry. Our pres
ent Eight each other) system is hell
upon earth. There is no use of the
clergy preaching hell, purgatory,
limbo, hades, torture, ETC., in Chy-
land, when we have them all rolled
into one right now. ..
Competition not only breeds wars,
causes famines, disease, death, etc.,
but is war in itself. If man is the
highest animal he should manifest
the highest social qualities, while the
fact is he is behind many of the So
called animals. Take the bees, for
instance. They all work together for
the common benefit. They permit no
parasites to remain in their hives.
With man it is different. The para
sites or near-parasites get the most
of everything, the workers going
hungry running after jobs. Few
women want a jobless or moneyless
man. If the clergy viii lend their aid
