NO SYMPATHY.

If Rumania is wiped off the map. who will have any sympathy for it's rulers? These deliberately held themselves and the country for sale to the highest bidder with the pro- viso that they intended to side with that side seemed to be the stronger. At one time the Central Powers seemed to have 1t all their own way and Rumanian seemed anxious to be the Ally of Germany, Austria and Bulgaria. Later it seemed poss- ible Russia, France and England and the Entente generally were do- ing very well and Rumania con cluded to get in on the band wagon. The sad truth of the proverb, there's many a slip twixt the cup and the lip is now being realized by the Ru- manian rulers with bitter lack of sympathy from neutrals.

The strike in Bayonne serves to Show any thinking person the in- stability of things today and the necessity exists for a strong armed force to drive the workers into sub mission. They no longer are willing to suffer the oppressive conditions which Standard Oil in it's gracious ness has devised for them and the intolerable wage-slavery of the Bay onne refineries, so they manifest a stiffnecked rebelliousness to their industrial liege lords. Is there any thing shows the propriety of nation al preparedness than these instinc- tive revolts of the wage slaves? Come down from the mists and miasma of foreign relations and war possibilities after the war. and get wise to the manner in which the workers are acting and struggling to better their conditions-come down to the facts in domestic in dustrial society and then perceive the wisdom and wholesome pru- dence of conscription and compul- sory military service so that the profits of Standard Oil ct al.. wrung from the hides of reluctant wage slaves. may be long in the land.

VANDERBILT AS 4 HUN PIRATE.

Lunnon is all worked up over the mistake of an illustrated paper which recently printed on it's back page large photograph of man in yachting dress and wearing d naval cap. Underneath the photo graph was the inscription: Captain Max Valentier", while over it stood the following:
 The Lusitania Pirate. No murderer's face ever seen in the dock was more typical than this. Yet Germany halls it as hero's. Captain Max Valentier is the Hun pirate who torpedoed the Lusitania. Ae.slooks capable of so dastardly a dsed:,., .....

But then it should be remembered that our own papers have been known to put the picture of a perfectly respectable murderer over the name of an ordi- nary American citizen. Corny shouldn't be peeved. He might have an opportunity to sink ship himself some time.-EX.

Having failed to make good their right to be considered necessary so- cial institutions, the saloons are now trying to justify their existence for revenue purposes. But it is not for community revenue purposes they want to prolong themselves. It is for the purpose Of providing the proprietors with miniature gold mines by an abstraction process from dipsomaniacs.
