Those earnest, loyal members of
Congress who have remained at their
post have mighty problems to handle,
the outcome of which is vital to the
maintenance of this republic.
America has been a long time enter
ing into this struggle and is now
marshalling her armies and contrib
uting her dollars for the suppression
of atrocities, heretofore never at
attempted in modern warfare. We
are in this war for the safety of this
republic and the protection of
humanity from German frightful-
ness" What this means to us is
eloquently told by Congressman
Dale in his speech on the floor of
Congress and found in another col
umn. Congressman Dale is a hard
working member of Congress, loyal
to the administration, one of those
who have "been on the job" every
day through this long and trying
session. His patriotism is Of the
highest type and his faithful service
is making for him and Vermont a
record second to none of her notable
sons who have upheld the govern
ment in times when loyalty and
faithful service were necessary for
the maintenance of the government
and the protection of humanity.
This war in which we are now taking
part is frightful beyond belief and
the methods of German madness"
are touchingly told in Congressman
Dale's speech which will bring out
the true reasons to every reader
why we are at war"

We are at war. Do you realize it?
The parents do when they send their
sons forth to battle, and slowly but
surely it is being sensed by every
true American. America is not only
fighting for universal brotherhood
but for the safety of this republic
which has leavened the whole struc-
ture of national government until
worldwide Ia gone forth the edict
that "the people shall rule" But
this is not the only cause in which this
government is at war. Traitors at
home are stabbing US in the back and
mining the way over which our
brave boys are marching These
disciples Of Judas must be made to
suffer. The mills of God" will get
them, but oh, we tremble for the
loyal lives they will cause to perish
ere we rise in wrath and mete out to
them just punishment. Then we
have those dried up souls of human
littleness whose vision never gets
beyond self, and whose greed is their
absorbing passion, going about TAX
ing advantage Of wartime conditions
and forcing prices of the necessities
of life to the highest possible point,
and reaping from the consumer
profits that will cause suffering in
many homes. These persons are just
as inhuman as German fright
fulness'' and enemies to both man.
kind and the government. In these
times when the people are put to
supreme tests and money turned in
to the great fund necessary to carry
on this war, every one should make
their profits below normal and not
take advantage of their less FORUM
ate brothers. Let's bestir ourselves
and be men!

The Rutland Herald gives the Yer
mont boys who have left for the ma

the very practical advice to "Give

ordinary for a parting slogan but
expresses in terse and unvarnished
terms the general feeling.

REmAINAWAY
FROM LOCAL
NAVAL RALLY
Lack of Attendance, Save by
Boy Scouts and Women,
Causes Cancellation of
Meeting.
NO RECRUITS OBTAINED

So small was the attendance at the
advertised navy meeting to have been
held last night at the High school au-
ditorium that the meeting was called
off after Principal Pickell, who was to
have presided, openly censured Rich
mond's citizenship for apparent lack
OF patriotic interest in the grave prob
lens confronting the nation as a re-
suit of the war
Henry U. Johnson was to have de-
hvered an address and Gunner's Mate
Goldfarb, navy recruiting officer here,
was to have told OF life In the navy.
There were handful of citizens, a
company Of Boy Scouts, and delega-
ton OF young women members of the
Red Cross in attendance. Young men
of military age were conspicuous by
their absence.
Three RecruitIess Days.
Goddard has been in the city three
days and has not yet secured a re-
cruit. His office is located on the Sec

Der OF pool sharps," the navy officer
remarked today. about the only
placeS ! 1lnd the young men are the
pool rooms, and they tell me that they
don't want to serve their country un-
less they are compelled to because
they have to help support their fam
i1ies."
Warner Notes Stacking Up.
Sergeant Warner. in charge of the
local army recruiting station, also
commented today in the unusual slack
ing off in army enlistments the past
few days. II believe all the volun-
teers have gone, and the ones who re-
main are those who will have to be
before they answer the
presidents call to service" Warner re-
marked.
Incidentally he expressed the belief
that many Richmond people are un-
der the impression, since the passage
Of the conscription law. that no more
are being accepted by the
army. Such is not the case, as Searg-
cant Warner points out. The regular
army will continue to accept volun-
teers, resgardless of the conscriptlon
law, until the army has been recruited
up to its full war strength.

BOGUS U. S. AGENTS
C0NFISCATE SUGAR
HOARDED BY FARMER

The United States government is
not confiscating sugar or any other
supplies, and If such action fs ever
taken the government will pay for
everything 1t confiscates.
This statement Is made 80 that no
other people will be duped as was
Andrew Benson, a farmer, living north
east of Richmond close to the Ohio
Indiana line.
Yesterday two men drove to the
Benson farm where they represented
themselves to be United States offic.
ers. They told Benson that 1t had
been reported to them that he had
purchased more sugar than permitted
under the law"
Admits 30o-Pound Purchase.
Benson admitted that he had pur-
chased 300 pounds of sugar, believing
It would be a wise action on his part,
because of the constant increase In the
price Of this commodity.
mo one Is allowed to have more
than 25 pounds Of sugar on hand at
one time, so we will have to confiscate
all your sugar except 25 pounds" one
Of the bogus federal agents informed
him. Without questioning the mems
authority Benson surrendered all his
sugar except the amount he was told
he could keep.
Without re-imbursing Benson, the
swindlers loaded over two hundred
pounds of his sugar into their wagon
and drove away. Up to the present
time the two crooks have not been ap-
pretended.

German Press Points
to Russian References

BERLIN, tv1a London) May IT,
Press comment today on the chancel
lor's speech almost unanimously un-
derscores the references to Russia as
the significantly outstanding feature
of the premier's utterance. The speech
as a whole is generally commended as
one Of the boldest and best that Won
Bethmann Hollweg has yet made in
parliament and personal criticism of
the chancellor is conspicuously absent
The editorial discussion. dilating upon
all angles Of war aims and peace
terms, emphasizes the widely diverg-
ent views entertained on all sides. In
many quarters the speech has had a
pronounced conciliatory effect, and Is
interpreted as pointing the way to
common meeting ground. The impress
sion prevails that the conservatives
came out OF the fray badly battered.

U. S. DES7R0YERS

ENCOUNTER SUB?

WASHINGTON, May 17.-No report
has come from Rear Admiral Sims that
any of the American destroyers, cruis-
ing with the allied fleet, have encount-
cred German submarines, but navy Of
ficials do not expect to receive de.
tailed statements of operations on
minor engagements II no losses are en-
volved.
It was reiterated today that for
obvious military reasons that the num-
Der and names Of American ships In
European waters or those to be sent
would not be disclosed.
Naval officials resent the statement
that the destroyer crews were not ade-
quately clothed for duty. The men
all had regular outfits, which included
woolen underwear, uniforms, caps, sox,
jerseys, heavy jackets, seal boots and
oil skins and most of them were pro-
vided with additional clothing before
they sailed.
The department has contracted for
new winter outfits, which will be
available for all men who may be sent
abroad Included will be knitted wool
en- underwear as heavy as athletic
sweaters in texture, thick wool
blouses, wind proof cutter suits of a
neutral tinted cloth and heavier caps
and sox.

Safety Achievements
Shown by Railroads

CHICAGO, May 17-Returns issued
by the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion and made public today by the
bureau of Railway News and Statistics
show one of the greatest safety
achievements in the history Of Amer
lean railways in their record for the
summer Of 1916.
In the quarter from July to Septem-
Der, when the roads handled the larg-
est passenger movement in their his
tory, the returns show that there were
only two passengers killed in train
accidents.
Only in one previous quarter on
record, when traffic was very much
lighter, was this record equalled. This
was from April to June, 1915, while
all other summer quarters show a con-
siderably greater number of fatalities.
