AHEAD OF HIS TIME.

Two years ago when the German plotters
against the peace and honor of orr country
were working overtime, and drawing, as we
know now. their pay from Berlin through Its
embassy at Washington, patriotic resident of
Oregon had an intuition that the imperial am
hassador was engineering IT all and wrote him
a letter which was more critical than kind. This
ardent if impolihc American permitting his
emotions TO override his judgment, addressed
his missive to Count Bumpstuff instead of
Bernstorff. at which the ambassador, who was
notably deficient in sense of humor, was peeved
and grieved and complained to the president.
As the government was not 1T that time ready
TO break with Germany, it felt forced TO take
the matter up and the patriot from the Pacl-
tic coast was arrested. tried and fined for mis-
luse of the mails Yet how time has indicated
this far-sighted mani All the world now knows
that Bumpstuff is q justihahle variant of the
diplomats name and that the Oregon patriot
| was far ahead of his time in peTceiving the
fact, An autograph letter from the president
praising him for his perspieacity would seem
To be the least the administration can properly
do to atone for its injustice Of two years ago.

sacrifice, rs he thought, in some respects But
instead Of losing by his Investments he has

DESERVES INDICTMENT.

Former Senator Pettigrew, of South Dakota,
deserves the indictment for treason said to
have been found against him, for he confesses
to remarks no patriotic American would have
made. He has said that we are at war to
make the world safe for hypocrisy and be-
cause certain people were on ships-the Lusi-
tania and others-where they should not have
been, and that now that we were in the war the
best thing we could do is to back out of it
However much of a misfit he was while in
the senate. the fact that he once held that high
office gives his reasonable utterances weight
with thoughtless persons. While he and La
Toilette so unpublished, how can the country
expect that men more ignorant than they are
will curb their traitorous tongues, or that Wei
Gus Prussians by blood or sympathy will refrain
from overt acts! The degradation of La Fol
lette and the punishment of Petugrew world
have effect to put a muffler on sedltion
preachers and might discourage to some>eStent
the fire bomb industry which seems to be flour
ishing just now.

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

MarshalItown imes-Republican:
What harm does it do to let anxious
fathers and mothers know as much as
germany knows about the landing OF
American troops in Frances? And II is
probable that the Wilhelmstrasse
knows 10 a company how many men
we have landed there.
Davenport Democrat: The man
who bought Liberty bond and said
he would quit going across the river
in order to pay for it, had found an
easy way to buy it.
Cedar Rapids Republican: In DaV-
export in two days they sold over
three thousand bonds. totaling over
half n million dollars We should pc
careful not TO judge Davenport by the
few men who were recently on trlal
before Judge Wade.
Davenport Times: One should De
extremely careful not to repeat ru-
mors concerning the war and espe-
oially il they are rumors that cast
some sort OF reflection on the Ameri-
can government or the army or navy.
Even though they are repeated merely
as rumors. il may be that the stories
were told you BY someone merely for
the purpose of getting you to repeat
them. IL is best not to get into the
habit OF discussing rumors and there
will be no danger then of saying some
thing which may be repeated as hay'
ing come from you in way to put
you in bad light in the community.
BURLINGTON Gazette: Germany
seizes Steel" cables Copenhagen. This
in addition 10 all she's getting from
the mouths of French and British can
nong
Des MoineS Register: Maybe the
river towns in Iowa will contend they
are so strongly for booze because the
water Is bad.
Sioux City Journal: The Iowa
"drys" may take all the consolation
they can out of the belief that about
$4,000 prohihitionists voted no think
ing they were casting the usual vote
against the saloon: but that belief
will hardly be calculated TO impress a
general assembly with the necessity
OF pleasing that kind of voter. He
might vote the wrong way next time.
