TIME TO STRIKE TRAITORS.

Yesterday The Graphic carried an account of the arrest of men in Tul- sa, Oklahoma, charged witi' plotting to terrorize the entire neighborhood and supposedly in the pay of the German governments agitators in this country. In another place there was the story of -incendiary fires Oil the river bank in New York in which food and munitions for our allies were burned. Still another telegram told of the discovery of suspected alien enemy hidden away upon one of the nution's troop ships, and the sub sequent inspection of every part of the ship lest this man had placed a bomb or damaged the machinery. Lastly. the wires told of the blowing up of powder mill at Kensington, New York, the act being attributed to the pernicious activity of our enemy. All of these acts, suspected to be at the instigation of enemy sympa- thizers in this country were contain ed in one days news. Doubtless there were many more such acts committed and no mention made of them. One, it is certain, was near a small town in Oklahoma, where some villains had set fire to bridge, thereby endangering the transporta- tion of our troops. But surely for one day the crimes of this sort emu merated are enough to justify the gov ernment in taking more strenuous measures against all enemy sympa- thizers.
 The New York council of defense has petitioned the government for greater severity in this matter, and it is to be hoped that other councils of defense will follow this movement When Brazil became convinced that the Huns were at work in :hat coun- try the president very promptly is sued g recommendation interning all enemy sympathizers. It behooves the United States to take some sim liar step. Our boys arc captives in Germany. No American citizen, no American sympathizer is allowed to roam about the kaiser's domain ad libertum. Why, then should this country treat its enemies with any less severity.
 
 We have patriotic ,tizens of Ger man descent among Us. These are as splendid in their devotion to the
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1917-11-07

country as any other class of our people, but we have, too, others that are openly and still others who are secretly in sympathy with our vindictive enemy. These the coun- try should seek out at once and in tern, whether it be in camps or in jail. We have waited until patience longer would be crime. It is time to strike the traitor, and strike with the mailed hand.

.a .t, Get the Habit of
 Drinking Hot Water !.
 :, Before Breakfasts '. :.
Says we can't look or feel right l .s with the system full of polsons.

Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs. Whats an inside bath?' you say. We'll, its guaranteed to perform miracles if you could be- lieve these hot water enthusiasts.
 There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon aris- ing tn the morning, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure It is intended to flush the stomach, liv- CT, kidneys and thirty feet of bowels of the previous days waste, sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which if not elimin- ated every day, becomes food for the millions of bacteria which finest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood, causing headache, bill ious attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds. stomach trouble, kidney mis- cry, sleeplessness, impure blood and all sorts of ailments.
 People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyoneia real crank on the subject of internal sanitation.
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening, and freshening, so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liv- CT. kidneys and bowels. It is vastly more important to bathe on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.

CONTROL BOARD TO
MEET ". 7. MANAGER
Order Requiring Firemen and Police
men to Pay Fares Will
Be Discussed.

Ii was reported from Il reliable
source last night that the board OF
control and W. B. Atwood, general
manager of the Wheeling Traction
company. will hold Il conference today
at which time the recent order requir.
ing city fircmen and policemen to
pay their fare al all times when riding
on cars of the Wheeling Traction COM
pany will be taken up.
1t is claimed by police and tiremen
that the new order, in addition 10
working a hardship on them. renders
the department less efficient. as the
men do not feel that they can afford
TO pay fare out of their own pocket
either in answering hurry calls for
police or responding 10 fire alarms
when the fireman happens 10 be else
where than at his fire station.
II is claimed by some that the fran
chise of the traction company pro-
yides that policemen and firemen in
uniform shall be carried free on the
cars, but the order Of the traction
company. said 10 have been issued as
the result Of public service COM
mission ruling, denies them this priv
ilege and they are required 10 deposit
their "jitney" or depend on shoe
leather as a means of conveyance.
The outcome of loday's conference
will be awaited with much interest,
particularly since the traction COM
pany enjoys the privilege of hauling
coal and ashes between its South Side
power plant and the Richland mine,
other than after midnight, only by the
action of Mayor Kirk in suspendlng
an order of the board Of control AFTER
North End citizens had objected 10
the cars operating through the city
in daylight hours and strewing the
streets with fine coal and ashes.
