NATIONAL
PORCELAIN
Factory
IN FRANCE is TRANSFORMED
INTO PART OF HUGE WAR MA
CHINE - FORMERLY MAD
STATuETTES AND VASES.

Paris, Sept 1G.-The worldfamed
national porcelain factory at Seyres
has suddenly been transformed into
part OF the huge war machine. In
stead of making those dainty and
fragile statuettes and vases which
are the wonder of art collectors, it
is turning out "poteries de guerre,' ~
or earthenware rctorts and cauldrons
for manufacturing asphyXiating gas
and for all the various chemical pro
cesses of producing high explosives.
Even the famous artists whose
names are associated with the deli
cate co,oring of Seyres porcelain, are
now exercising their art in enameling
these huge retorts so as to make
them more resistant to the acids and
chemicals used in the war processes.
Early in the war, NJ. Bourgeois, ad-
ministrator of Seyres, learned that
the production of high explosives for
artillery was falling short ONius 10
the lack of earthen receptAclcs ca-
pable Of treating the acids. He
therefore proposed to the minis-er
of fine arts, NJ. Dalimer, that the art
work Of Sevres be suspended and all
its energies given to producing the
receptacles needed for powder max
ing This was approved and soon the
Transformation was begun. There
were many difficulties to overcome.
Half of the force had gone off to the
war. Those who remained were art
! lists trained in the most delicate class
of work. The furnaces, too, were de-
signed for small art objects, and
there was only one furnace big
enough to make powder cauldrons.
But the obstacles were overcome,
the whole establishment being in
spired with the idea that it was CON
tributing to the national defense. The
sculptor of bisque figures did not
( hesitate to make the plaster moulds
for the big retorts. The chemists
studied art methods of adapting the
various hard clays to the new kind or
war work. The artists did their part
in enamelng. The working force soon
had four furnaces, usually employed
on vases and bisques, enlarged so as
to bake the big powder cauldrons'
Soon the work was going at such
rate that branch railway was run
into the factory, connecting it with
the great powder factories at Angoul-
enc. St. Chamand, St Fons, Toulouse,
Bordeaux, Dijon and Brest.

TITLED FRESHMAN HELD
AS TRAITOR IN LONDON
Sir Roger Easement Captured Landing
German Arms in ireiand-Kai-
ser's Ship Destroyed.

London, April 26.-Sir Roger Case
ment, the Irish separatist leader, has
been captured from a German ship
which attempted to land arms in Ire
land and was sunk, it was officially
announced.
The official announcement says:
During the period between the aft
ternoon of April 20 and the afternoon
of April q an attempt to land arms
and ammunition in Ireland was made
by a vessel under the guise Of neu-
trail merchant ship, but which in real
ity was a German auxiliary. in con-
junction with a German submarine.
The auxiliary sank and number
Of prisoners were made, among whom
was Sir Roger Easement"
Sir Roger. a knight, and formerly a
British pensioner. has been source
of concern to the British government
since a few months after the declara'
ton of war. when 1t became known
that he had gone TO Berlin and was
working in the German cause.
1t was then reported that he had
opened negotiations between the Ger
man government and the anti-English
party in Ireland. 1t was said he had
obtained assurances that II German
army invaded Ireland all native insti-
buttons would be respected.
Early in 1915 his pension Of e4o0,
granted 20 him by the government as
a retired consular official, was can
celed on charges that he was disloyal.
Shortly afterward he published in Ber-
lin an open letter to Sir Edward Grey.
British foreign minister, charging the
British government with offering his
servant a bribe Of $4,000 for his cap
ture or death.
He was also understood to have pro-
posed an alliance between Germany,
Ireland and the United States, but this
was never confirmed.

FOR TARIFF CHANGE
Cotton interests Awakening to
the Situation.
Realize That Protection Along Some
Lines Is Necessary to Meet condi-
tions That. Are Bound to Come
After the War.

The protective tariff doctrine is max
ing Roadway in the South. At the re
cent annual convention of the Ameri-
can Cotton Manufacturing association
in Atlanta practically every speech
had~in it note of precaution against
what the future may bring forth
While the cotton men were not pes
simistic, but instead recognized that
the present wave of prosperity is wide
spread and that the cotton industries
are reaping their share of the bene-
fits, they admitted that following
peace in Europe there will be ruth
less European competition which will
be little short of ruinous in some lines
of the cotton industry if the present
tariff conditions continue.
The convention expressed its earn
est wish that congress should enact
a protective tariff on dyestuffs which
would permit the development of dye
industries in the United States. and
later went on record as favoring a
protective tariff to prevent America
being made a dumping ground for Eu-
ropean cotton goods at the close of the
war.
The report of the committee on tar
iff legislation declared that the exist
ing tariff has already demonstrated its
'inetticiency as an income-producing
measure, and has demonstrated that
its schedules are unreasonably and ru-
inously low" The committees report
predicts that at the close of the war
Europe will look to America to take
her goods, and if not prevented will
see to it that America does take them
at such prices as will be ruinous to
American industries.
With the South lining up for protec.
ton, all that is needed to make it
unanimous is the conversion of Demo-
cratic leaders who are not in harmony
with their followers.

Must Name Rlnht Man.

1t is all important thai the Chicago
convention name man to lead the
fight who will get all the votes of the
Republican party said Senator
Kearns of Utah recently. I'VE want a
victory in November. There can be
no question that the great body of the
voters is opposed to Democratic ad1
ministration of the government, for it
has been proved in the last three years
that the Democrats do not know how
to run the government. Nevertheless,
it is of the utmost importance that the
Republicans shall cement the reunion
of the organization by selecting at Chi
cago a candidate who will not be OBJ

Why. Secretary nanials 2

Mr.. Daniels prefers not to resign.
Perhaps President Wilson prefers not
TO ask him to. But it is painfully ap-
parent that personal or political con-
siderations are being put above the
country's welfe~e when the nation 3
first defense is willfully kept under
so bhShting a handicap and precious
time is wasted in a futile attempt to
rehabilitate a personal reputation
wrecked beyond repair in an under
taking unjustified by ability. Secre-
tary Daniels has failed. and The pres.
:dent should recognize the fact.

Dire Need for Protection.

The people of tn country are con-
WINGED now that the Democrats are
incapable. Particularly are the farm
ers determined that they shall not be
fooled again. The advocacy of nom
partisan tariff commission to revise
the tariff, coming late as a Demo
cratic tariff doctrine, will fool the peo-
pie. 1t is not Democratic commits
sion for protective tariff that the
president wants, but tariff commits
sion to revise the tariff for revenue
purposes only, and this is not Repub-
lican idea by any means. We shall
have very urgent need OF a protective
tariff in the next few years if we are
to guard against the cheap productions

London, April 27.-The official com

concerning the situation in Berlin
says;
AT noon yesterday serious disturb
ances broke out in Dublin. A large
party of men identified with the Sim
Fem party, mostly armed, occupied
Stephens Green and took possession
forcibly of the post office, where they
cut the telegraph and telephone wires.
Houses also were occupied in Ste

street and along the qgays.
In the course of the day soldiers
arrived from the Curragh and the stu
alton is now well in hand. So far as
is known here three military officers,
four or five soldiers, two loyal volun-
teers and two policemen have been
killed and four or five military officers
and six volunteers wounded. No ex'
act casualties on the side OF the Sim
Feiners.
Reports received from Cork. Lin

Augustine Birrell, chief secretary for
ireland, announced in the house of
commons the disturbances in Dublin.
He added that troops had been sent to
the Irish capital and that the situation
was now well in hand.
He declared that the rebels were in
possession of four or five parts of the
city.

because of the rapid rise of the Chip

the crest of an enormous volumn Of

The dam was destroyed to save a pa
