national total prohibition, which believe will have before the is
 There will be whiskey sold and drunk whenever the sale of it is permitted long there is drop to be had at whatever the price may be. but there will be fewer and fewer purchasers
 In the prohibition states where the importation of liquor is forbidden by federal law and especially in such states Arizona which have strict laws against importation the coming price of liquor will effectively bar it. Bootleggers afford to take the great risk of loss against the comparatively few sales they would make.
 It would also be very easy matter to check against all outside shipments destined for prohbi tion state. Even officials frequently apprised from outside sources of shipments by mobile intended for points within the state. It is by this means that most of the important captures effected. If bootlegger were to buy large quantity of s15 liquor in Los Angeles any other point outside the that fact would be well baz- oned by the time the liquor was started on it's journey

Cheaper Coal

In connection with the fixing by the government of the price of coal market expert calls attention a phenomenon which gives the lie to the old time notion that high prices in mining in agriculture furnish the best stimulus to increased production. It is somewhat surprising fact that while the price of coal has gone up rapidly in east at the same time coal famine was predicted in the coming winter
 Under the plans of the president the price of soft coal has been fixed at price dollar below that established by the federal trade commission dent Wilson did not act in this matter hastily His action was not based guess work He had before him accurate figures to the of coal mining and these figures had been secured by the com mission
 The price to the wholesaler is definitely fixed and then the wholesaler is allowed certain margin in selling to the retailer who in turn will be allowed to make certain percentage and no more in his dealings with the consumer
 When the suggestion was made that the govern ment should fix the price. the cry was raised by the coal men that famine would result that a lower ing of the prices would a reduction of the output Prices of the of the coal roads dropped as the result of the proposed of coal prices
 There are signs of reaction. It is realized that under system of government dictation and if necessary, government ownership, the reduction of the price of coal will be accompanied by an increase of production
 One of the essential elements in maintaining high prices under system of unrestricted private was to keep down the output so that a shortage of coal would not only justify but compel high prices The duty of the government is bring about fair adjustment of prices but fully much, admins- ration must that the output of the mines is in creased to meet the needs of war Both must be done if government control of the mines is to be success.

Cult of FrightfuIness Applied
 War Prisoners in Germany

It was the policy of the Germans to put some prisoners of each na- ton in each camp. This was prob ably so that no claim could be made that the prisoners from one nation among the Allies were treat ed better or worse than the pris- oners from another nation.
 In the beginning of the war the Germans were surprised by the great number of prisoners taken. and had made no adequate preparations for their reception. Clothing and blank cts were woefully wanting; so that I immediately bought what l could in the way of underclothes and blankets at the large department | stores of Berlin and the wholesalers, and sent these to the camps where | the British prisoners were con- | fined. l also sent to the Doeberitz camp articles such as sticks for women and men who were recover ing and crutches and even eggs and other nourishing delacicies fo rthe sick
 At first the prisoners were not compelled to work to any great ex- tent, but at the time l left Ger many the two million prisoners of war were materially assisting the carrying on of the agricultural and industries of the empire
 The League of Mercy of New York having telegraphed me in 1914 | asking in what way funds could best be used in the war, l suggested in answer that funds for the pris- oners of war were urgently needed Many newspapers poked fun at me for this suggestion, and one bright editor said. if the Germans dit not treat their prisoners properly they should be made to!

 Of course, unless this particulal editor had sailed up the Spree il a canoe and bombarded the roya making" the Germans do anything The idea, however, of doing som work for the prisoners of war wa taken up by the Young Mems Chris tian association. Dr. John R. Mot was at the head of this work an, was most ably and devotedly as sisted by the Rev. Archibald Harte. l shall give an account 0 their splendid work in a chapte devoted to the charitable work 0 i war.
 At only one town in Germany wa any interest in the fate of tn prisoners of war evinced. This was I am glad to say, in the quaint uni vcrsity town of Gottingen. I wis ited this camp with MT. Harte, i April, 1915, to attend the opening c the first Young Mems Christian as sociation camp building in German! The camp was commanded by Col onel Bogen, an officer strict in hi discipline, but, as all the prisoner admitted. just in his dealings wit them. There were, as I recall, abor seven thousand prisoners in thi camp, Russian, French, Belgian an English

Mr. Malone's Resignation

MT. Dudley Field Malone in rendering his resigna- ton the president collector of customs for the important Port of New York, and giving his reasons therefor includes unanswerable argument for na- tional woman suffrage. Many who have read MT Fields letter. printed by The Republican on Satur- day may think that he makes out case of duplicity the part of the president But that is not the case whatever MT Field thought the president would do if re elected whatever the of California and other western states had been led by Mr. Field into thinking MT. Wilson would do, the president himself throughout the campaign uttered no word to indicate that his unfriendliness to national woman suffrage the slightest degree modified Even J. Ham Lewis the sef-constituted interpreter of the presidents sometimes cryptic utterances and the ad- juster them disapproving public sentiment could have discovered in none of MT. Wilson's cam paign speeches remark that hnted at the use of his influence in congress in favor of the Susan R. Anthony amendment If the president erred by his silence that point it was in permitting MT Malone to deceive himself and mislead the women
 As to another grievance of MT. Malone's, the pun shment of the White House picketers. we think he is wrong in his assertion that the women are being punished the exercise the constitutional right of petition. No has right to carry that or any other right the point of making a nuisance of himself One has a constitutional right in Arizona. for instance, to petition for the opening of road That petition is addressed the board of super vsors. He may send that petition to the board or take it to the board but he has right place it before the board by force in unseemly manner
 He has a right circulate the petition the public streets in public places but he becomes guilty trespass when against the will of the owner he ntrudes upon the privacy of the home or the office He certainly would be arrested if he should go into church during services. Haunting his peti- ton and demanding that the worshipers should sign it.
 We suppose that the average office holder. the drawing salary of s1 900 say s5 900 5000 year stands aghast the resignation by MT. Malone of the choicest of federal appointments the prize Of them all, for the sake of principle The office pays a salary of s12.000 year, but that is only great that the collsctor becomes powerful sonage. The average federal appontee cannot under stand it; MT Malone must be crazy with the heat.
 The fact is, MT. Malone doesn't need the office. its salary and other emoluments and the power it confers The money to him is and always has been, stances that give him far greater power than the office confer. He has made of himself a national figure. He has vindicated himself before the women of the country in most striking and effective man. The of New York of course. at pres ent, cannot materially manifest their gratitude to- MT. Malone knows for he has travelled over it.

for camp buildings, etc, were not copied in other camps in Germany. Here, as I have said the civil popu- latiOn took some interest in the fate of the unfortunate prisoners within their gates, led in this by several professors in the University. The most active of these professors was Professor Stange, who, working with French lawyer who had been cap tured near Arras while in the Red Cross, provided a library for the prisoners and otherwise helped them. Of course, these charitable acts of Professor Stange did not find favor with many of his fellow townsmen of Gottingen and he was not sur prised when he awoke one morning to find that during the night his house had been painted red, white and blue, the colors of France, Eng | land and America
 I heard of so many instances of | annoyance of prisoners by the civil population that l was quite pleased | one day to read a paragraph in the
 official newspaper, the North Ger
 man Gazette, which ran somewhat
 as follows:
 ! The following inhabitants of l EdI1lHS SIiidll lONu HSdl lic l borders of Denmark, having been 1 guilty of improper conduct to-
 ward prisoners of war, have been
 sentenced to the following terms | of imprisonment and to the fol-
 lowing fines and their names are
 printed here in order that they may be held up to the contempt of all future generations of Ger
 mans.
 And then followed a list of name!
 and terms of imprisonment ant
 fines. I thought that this was splen did, that the German governmen had at last been aroused to tn
 necessity of protecting their prison
 CTS of war from the annoyances O
 the civil population, and I wrot Il to our consul at Kiel and aske
 him to investigate the case.
 From him I learned that some un
 fortunate prisoners passing throug 'the town Gin part of Germany in : habited by Scandinavians), had mad l signs that they were suffering iron hunger and thirst; that some of tn kind hearted people among the Scan dinavian population had given ther } something to eat and drink an 5 for this they were condemned

THE sHALLoPs OF THE SUNSET

l watch the clouds that come and go With sunset fringes all aglow, Fantastic ships pass to and fro; Shell-tinted craft they seem to be In lazy loiterings set free, Misguided by inconsistency. Yet while their phantom forms arise Their silver masts in darkening skies Throw off their maritime disguise And winged fleets begin to change To wountain peaks surpassing strange That pile their gold caps range on range, My fancy pictures cannons deep, Across which nymphs of sky-land Ieap. But, when upon their play I peep The mountain peaks dissolve and run To little islets one by one, That float about the setting sum- count the crimson colored isles That stretch away for miles and miles And think about the after-whiles. Until at last they seem to be A string of coral beads to me A vesper- shaded rosary

 Just hint of pain; At touch the roses fall What was that? cricket's call? Then tis not fancy. Yes
 Summer the wane. See. The butterfly in flight flaunts no more in loops of light; Stiffer, too, his wings, or numb. Long at rest remain. And the breeze more languid now seems to faint upon the Dough; Dimmer floats the bees low hum Summer on the wane Much there is intangible Much that words can never tell Strive the minstrel OCT and OCT
 Weaving his refrain; Such is now that prescience. I stealing up to every sense Like shadow at the door

The Upward Flight of Whiskey

Those of who only hate the liquor traffic but entertain personal feeling against the men who make whiskey, will feel only limited satisfaction in the results of the legislation which has stopped the manufacture of whiskey. The distiers and others who have great quantities of liquor in stock in bond have been financially benefited. There is said to be about 300O00000 gallons of such whiskey
 this legislation is be effective only during the war, other could have been enacted that would have been advantageous to the distllers. It is estimated that the price of whskey that has been sold at s4 gallon will shortly bring s15 gallon. far the owners of this whskey cerned the legislation equivalent to adding sl1 gallon the price of it, and decreeing that there should be competition to hinder the sale of it. Supposing that it will all be sold the legislation will effect of adding s33O0 100000 to the value of stock now on hand. The distlers well afford idleness for years come.
 But !. the purpose of the law t, punish the whskey makers. but the countrys grain supply and that will he accomplished Neitber the government people generally, concerned with the profits of the disters, and. by the way. much greater share of their profits will go the government under the tax bill And here also the government will be benefited food servation legislation for a much larger volume of the stored whskey will be withdrawn from bond.

It will effective prohibition as to very large element of the population.

PUNISHMENT FOR JACKIES PICK-

Bluejackets at the Great Lakes Ma
val training station who pick quarrels
or offer unprovoked insults to Negroes,
either in Chicago or on electric cars on
the north shore, will be arrested and
punished if complaints are made to the
naval authorities at the station. A
statement to this effect was forthcom-
ing from Capt. w. A. Moffett.
Negroes who bluejackets have en-
countered on the cars have been or
