GERMAN INVASION RUMORS

Rumors are drifting over from England that the
British public is taking seriously the possibility that ger
manys next strategic shift may be an invasion OF LII
island. 1t is assumed that such an attempt might DC
warranted from the Teutonic point of view as a means
of preventing concerted and synchronized advances ny
the allies all along the line of steel that has been drawn
about the central forces. Accepting this point OF view
the invasion, if made at all, is expected soon. W1thhh
another month the fields in the eastern zone Will De dry,
ing up sufficiently to allow transportation OF men and
munitions, and permit an attack in unison that might tax
even the extraordinary mobility of the German army TO
meet. If a blow is to be aimed at England, 1t Would III
theory be made to anticipate and possibly checkmate Sucn
move by the allies.
England seems disposed to look upon the matter as
a stroke of desperate futility, in light of the fact that the
united kingdom is furnishing camping grounds tor some
million men in arms. Yet the islanders have unquestlon-
ably been impressed by the remarkable book purportlng
to describe "Hindenberg's March Into London" which
has swept Germany like wildfire, and has stimulated the
Teutonic imagination to frenzied enthusiasm.
Opinions of the volunteer military experts differ as
to the part played in present contingencies by the Dublin
rebellion. One view may be that Germany counted on
the uprising to engage British attention to such extent
that a sudden invasion might be successful; another, that
it was but a fent that is still to be followed by the real
thrust. AT any rate indications are that the forces OF the
united kingdom are keen1y on the alert and loath to send
the full strength to the existing front of battle SO long
as this menace must be considered. That in itself may
serve German purposes while the anticipation can be kept
alive. And it's likely to be unless there's some break in
Germany's winning streak" east or west, or until some
major action is staged in the North Sea.
The same sources of gossip that deal with the mat
ter of invasion are responsible for stories that the Ger
man naval leaders have been taking in no good part the
accomplishments of the army when compared with their
own inactivity, which has been a target for glbes by the
military party. They are represented as growing 1mpa-
tient under restraint and anxious to lead a dash toward
England. Almost of necessity a naval engagement would
have to precede any attempt to Use transports across the
North sea. Defeat by the British battles1ips would end
plans of invasion and might hasten the end of the war.

In view of the second raid of Mexican patriots across
our border, the footing of stores, the murder of civilians,
including a deaf and dumb boy who could not answer
their questions, and their attack upon a squad of nine
c~avalrymen, 1t is up to the conference committee on the
Philippine bill to get busy and carry out the platform
pledge to give the Filipinos their independence and guar
antee their conduct toward each other and the rest of the
world. Mexico has had more than half a century to
practice self-government, and her brilliant success must
remove all further doubt of the wisdom OF MeX1can1z1ng
the Philippines.
But seriously, and fortunately, there is no longer any
danger of that platform pledge being crystal1zed into law,
and our troubles with Mexico at this time will carry a
blessing to those islands in the Pacific that were threat
ened with the fate that has throttled Mexico, the curse
of anarchy and spoliation at the hands of agitators, mis-
guided patriots and ambitious native politicians, whose
ideal of liberty is the privilege to loot and despo1.
During the last ten days we have been reading from
Mexico City and Juarez of the peace that had settled over
Mexico, how unnecessary it was for our troops longer to
remain beyond the border, how perfectly the Mexican
side of the border was controlled by the troops of Car
rama. The preservation of the sacred dignity of Car
rama at Mexico City was more important than the lives
and the property of all the Americans on this side of the
border, and this sacred dignity would be wounded, if not
seriously impaired, by the military use of the railroads
that American capital had built in Mexican territory for
the development of Mexico. The military use OF these
railroads or the continued presence OF American troops
chasing a Mexican bandit on Mexican soil was an aftront
to Mexican pride.
Four wears ago a wealthy Mexican revolutionist of
a large and ambitious and wealthy family became presl-
dent BY destroying the only peace and development Mex
leo ever had. This Mexican, Madero, was soon after
ward overthrown and resigned. The congress elected at
the same time he was chosen named his successor. and
four DAYS after his overthrow and resignation Madero
was murdered, as other leaders under his own regime
were murdered. And because of this murder our gov
eminent refused to officially recognize, but sought to
overthrow. Madero's successor, without any proof that he
was responsible. In anv event Huerta was elected pres1-
dent before the murder, and our own m~eddling and three
wears of temporizing are bringing our reward. We IN
sisted from WASHINGTON chat the Mexican people should
be ruled by the Mexican constitution, when not one IN
four could read what it contained, and not one in twenty
cared what it contained.

GERMANY WILL GET BACK HER

Germany will not have a shortage of men after the
war. AT least so they figure it out. Two millions of Ger
mans have been living in Russia, working at various
trades. Many of these have already returned to their own
land, and many more will do SO as soon as they can get
across the lines. The Germans will not be welcome in
Russia, and it will be unpleasant for them to remain in
an unfriendly land. The president of the union OF agr1-
culturists, Baron Wangenheim, says they will receive back
many of their countrymen who have em1grated to Amer,
lea. They have advices to that effect. Thousands VIII
leave America because the opportunities in their father
land will be so abundant.
If these predictions and estimates are even approx
matelv correct, Germany will not lack men to do her work.
And there will be plenty of work for them to do-and also
some taxes to pay. The interest money will amount to
at least $OOo,OOo,OOo a year if the war lasts much longer,
which is more than the cost of the whole German govern
ment before the war. That is some budget IN itself,
and the people will have to meet the cost in the form OF
taxes, unless the government should repudlate its debts,
which is not possible since most of the debt evidences will
be held by its own subjects.

THE PRICE OF PRINT PAPER

In the war countries newspapers are regulated Strlclly
as to the number of pages they may print. according to
their advertising and so forth. This is done in order that
the supplies OF paper in such countries may not be wan
tonlv used up. In this country we have reached no such
situation as vet, but the newspapers, on their own &C
count, will have to enforce strictly all the economies OF the
business. Print paper is higher. much higher, and there
is no prospect of it slipping down in price. There is talk
OF it staving 90 cents a hundred higher than 1t has been.
Others talk of a uniform increase of IS per cent. This
Increased cost is hard for the publisher to provide tor I'M
medatelv, if at all. Subscription rates cannot be increas-
ed at a Jump, nor can they be varied with the varying
prices of paper. Such Jumps in the prices OF PRINT pa
Ders therefore become serious drains on newspaper in
comes, and the bigger the paper the more severe the
drain and the strain on the publishers. There was a SINH"
lar increase in the price of papers during the bret Span
ish war, although that seemed to be without cause. At
the present time many reasons are given for the increase,
icals. Wood pulp is in demand abroad, and the manttac-
turers in this country are asking at home about what
they can get abroad. the demand creating the price. AS
the war continues the demand may become still strong
er. In other words, the Americans are dong business
on the basis of prices that the European nations are will
ling to pay for materials, if they are sent over there.
Princeton professors and students are numerously
signing an address to the French soldiers IN the trenches,
which is to be read as one of the orders OF the day to the
soldiers of France. The purpose of the document is to as
pathizing with the soldiers of their sister republic across
the seas. OF course the French will be able to take the
voice of Princeton for the voice of the American people
and it is the voice of a large share of them.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Bryan's inability to contribute
ANYTHING to it, the supply of oratory at St. Louis will
probably be enough and to spare.

IN CASE OF NEED

There will doubtless be a cordial response by manu-
facturers throughout the United States to the appeal OF
President Wilson that they forward as soon as possible
to the government full information as to the size of their
plant and what each can furnish the government in mu-
nitions, supplies, clothing, food and like articles IN case
of need. The move is a wise one and unquestionably
the information will be furnished promptly and complete
ly. The information thus furnished will be confidential
If We should have war it would not be enough to en-
list men. The men must be provided with arms, ammu
milton, uniforms, shoes and the like. A great quantity
of munitions must be available in a very short time. #
the government knows where it can obtain on Quick no
tiCe what it must have that will facilitate matters For
that reason information is asked respecting the size of
each plant, the equipment, the capacity, what articles r.
turned out and what can be furnished in a given time #
an order should be placed. The orders could be 50 dis
tributed among the various plants that the needed SIM
plies could be obtained much sooner than would other
wise be the case.
This system might prove of very great value 70 the
nation. 1t is the system that enabled Germany 70 oet
the Jump on its adversaries in the first wear of the var
and it is the system which the British government has
finally adopted after months of chaotic conditions which
proved exceedingly costly.

Some of the pro-German newspapers appear to be
deeply shocked over the execution by England of the
leaders in the Dublin revolt, planned in Germany by. Sir
Roger Clement, financed from the German war fund and
suppressed by the Irish constabulary and the Dublin p-
lice, composed of Irishmen. Wonder how long the lead
ers of such a revolt in Alsace or German Poland or even
in Belgium would have had for prayers before facing
a firing squad? And, strange to say, some of these same
newspapers gave up columns of space recently to tell an
emotional world why the execution of Edith Cavele was
necessary and iustifiable.

Henry Ford has sent twenty dollars to a Winchester
baby that was named after him by its misguided parents.
This, we presume, may be taken as a token of Henrys
intentions toward babies burdened with his name, and as
a consequence it will come to pass in future years that
the initials III. F." will be as common as a certain variety
of automobile.
