THE LUsITANIA CONCESSIONS

To understand just what it is that
Germany has conceded" to the
United States in its latest Lusitania
note, it is necessary to consider the
Interpretation placed on the commu-
nication by the German press and
public. 1t is understood that Ger
many admits that American lives
ought not to have been sacrificed as
an incident to reprisal against Great
Britain, and therefore is willing to
pay for these lives.
But this does not disavow the act ;
rather, it is insisted, the act cannot
be disavowed because it was per-
formed under orders. 1t does not
carry any guarantee for the future,
if we may judge from the German
Interpretation. In Berlin, it is said,
the feeling is that if the United
States acGuiesces in settlement on
this basis, the submarine warfare
can be resumed; it will merely be
necessary to go ahead sinking mer-
chantmen without notice, warning, or
safety for non-combatants and neu-
trails, only reserving that the United
States will expect to be paid for any
American lives lost!
This is the bald statement of the
case as German commentators view
it. How will it appeal to Ameri-
cans? After near year of negotia-
ton, Berlin assumes to believe that
great victory has been won, mas
much as the United States is to be
satisfied, and submarine slaughter is
not to be sacrificed. Berlin is con-
vinced that it is "too dangerous" for
submarines to stop their victims and
save lives on board; so it is really
necessary to take off the last restric-
tion, that could interfere with free
killing. And that is what will re-
suit, in Berlin's view. if the United
States acquiesces in the latest state.
ment of the German attitude.
President Wilson and his advisers
have yet to decide whether they will
accept the newest German proposal
Assuredly they should insist, before
they act, on knowing precisely what
Germany thinks it means by it's pro.
posal.
Acceptance of any Lusitania set
tlement that would be followed by q
resumption of slaughter on the high
seas, with merely the reservation
that America would take money fol
American lives incidentally lost
would not be settlement. 1t woulc
be the assurance that very soon {
new and insurmountable crisis woulC
present itself. The American peo
pie will not submit to any adjust
ment by which, on a cash basis, thii
Government issues license to xii
Americans on the high seas.

NO BOOZEP TAKE a SERUM /

There is never a calamity so dire
that its impending cloud does not
have a fringe of silver about its
lining; no disaster so profound as
to blast the hope that springs eter-
nal. The darkest hour is the har-
binger of dawn; and the day which
alternates with night carries the
promise of that perfect day which
shall know no night.
These reflections, wrung from the
shredded soul of an optimism that
refuses utterly to be downcast, are
volunteered for the cheer of a COM
munity which today confronts the
grave possibility that it will pres
emily become the unprotected victim
of all reptilian attack; which reads
in the daily Congressional Record
the threat that it's supply of essen
tial remedies for snake bite is short
ly to be taken from it. This town is
liable to go dry ere long. 1t must
cast about for new prsventives. The
need is pressing; and 10! the prom
Use comes from no. less authority
than the snakeologist of the New
York Zoo, that the need will be met!
1t is DR.. Ritol Brazil who rises to
our emergency; who holds forth the
promise that he will take care of
us in case Sheppard shall deprive us
of our long-accepted and firmly-re-
lied-upon preventives. = 1t happens
thus:
Recently a big rattlesnake in the
zoo stung a keeper, whose life was
saved only by most desperate means.
DR.. Brazil had produced a rattle
snake serum designed to neutralize
the effects of that reptiles bite, and
the serum saved the luckless keeper.
Now, convinced by this demonstra-
tion that his discovery is the real
thing, DR.. Brazil is going to Texas,
the headquarters of the rattlesnake
industry, to get a supply of snakes
and make a sufficient quantity of
his serum to insure protection for
all. He expects to turn out a sort Of
compound serum that will be proof
against all the Feptilian poisons COM
mon to America; one little dose will
do the business.
All power and success to the good
DR.. Brazil! He Understands oul
needs, he comes in the hour of ou1
great want. We will yet have the
laugh on Sheppard. Every citizen
of the District will require merely
to equip himself with .phial of the
Brazil anti-snake dope, and, if prohi.
bition shall at length be discovered
here in the act of prohibiting, he will
take an occasional microscopic swie
at the serum and feel all the sensa
tions that might ensue from indul
gence in the standardized preven
tives for such cases heretofore made
and prescribed. Get in your order
early for the serum!

Second Ditto - You are right.

Lets have it dug up for a sewer. % i
But wouldn't it be proper to pave
it first?"
"Of course; I thought you would
understand that. Then, after it is
paved and a drain put in, We'll have
it repaved."
"AII in readiness to be dug up again
for the gas-pipe? I see you under
stand the principles of municipal
economy. And after we have had it
repaved for the second time, then
what?"
We'll, then it will be ready for wild
ening. There's nothing 1 admire so
much as system in the care and ir--
provement of our roadways."

East's body was found in field near

Neal was shot four times through

forced his way into the berdoom of
the newlyweds. Mrs. Neal tried des-

Both Men Good Looking.
