ERRATUM.

The Gazette yesterday published an
article from the Literary Digest upon
George Wise's latest book, "Cam-
paigns and Battles of the Army of
Northern Virginia" 1t was a just
tribute to the Alexandria author
There was, however, an error in
the article which was, of course. seen
by every survivor of the Army of
Northern Virginia, as well as by
others acquainted with the history of
the war between the states. It was
stated by the Literary Digest that
General Thomas Jonathan Jackson re-
ceived his appellation of "Stonewall"
from General Lee at the battle of
Bull Run. 1t should have been Gen
eral Bee.

Nickel Loaf is Doomed-"Old Glory
Brand Popular.
Chicago, April 27.-Sharp advances
in the price of flour accompanied an
other sensational upward shoot IN
the wheat market yesterday and
made it certain that the days OF the
scent loaf of bread, at least of the
present size, are numbered through
out the nation.
May wheat climbed to $3.50, or
more than 9 cents above the best
nrevious record. Flour promptly
moved up from $500 to s13.7O per
barrel wholesale, and retailers boost
ed their price from S13.75 to s14.4OI
Later in the day the grain market
heard rumors that the labor troubles
in Germany may bring an early peace,
and wheat prices dropped more than
S cents.
Women's clubs and a number of
restaurants are considering placing
"Old Glory" bread, made with mini
mum on white flour, on their menus.
One hotel adcrady has adopted "Old
Glory" as war measure.

WE "HAyE BEGUN TO HIT"

There seems no reason to doubt
that our gunners on the Mongolia de-
creased the Kaiser's submarine fleet
ty one and there is every reason to
believe that other submarines hence
forth will have wholesome respect
for our ability to shoot straight. AS
the Baltimore Sun suggests, it is
natural that the sinking Of this y
noat should afford a satisfaction Just
at this time out of proportion to the
loss inflicted upon the enemy. II IS
our first shot and we have scored a
hull's-eye;; more than thar, we have
hit precisely the thing which we most
wanted to hit-the navalizec EXPIRE )

whenever we meet it.
"Don't cheer; the poor devils are
dying" said our Captain Philip in
the Spanish American War when the
United States vessels were destroy
ing the enemy ships in the light off
the Cuban coast. And we are sorry
now for. these unhappy victims of
Prussianism whom we send to their

L. s. FEEDING GERMANY

The Teutons have during nearly
three years manifested their wrath
against the United States because
this country sold food and munitions
to the allies. 1t is now SHOWN that
Germany has been nurtured during
the war by the United States through
neutral nations. Immediate steps will
be taken, now that this country is
at war with the Kaiser, to put a
stop to this procedure. Frank Bohn
in the New York Times shows that
for the last two years Germany has
fought the war largely on supplies
she has received from United States.
But even now it is not too late to cut
off those supplies and break her down
this year. But we must act today and
not tomorrow.
After giving figures, showing the
enormous Quantities of supplies from
the United States which have reach
ed Germany through neutral coun
tries, the writer says: There can be
only one method of procedure. If
the economic allies of Germany-Nor-
way, Sweden, Denmark. the Neither
lands and Switzerland-ido not agree
at once to stop absolutely all COM
merce with them. Furthermore, they
must consent to have American Of
tlcials placed on their frontiers to see
that the embargo is enforced. If they
do not wish to submit to this pro-
cedure, the. alternative is plain-thcy
must, expect TO receive nothing from.

GERMANY AND DEMOCRACY

What may prove to be important
moves to spew aside Hohenzollernlsm
and replace it with a German republic
have been reported officially to the
state department from several sour
ces. According to a message 10 the
secretary of state from Minister Sto-
vail at Berne, an open movement Is
on in Switzerland by committee OF
Germans to spread the propaganda
of republicanism and democracy. Dr.
.Roesmyer, former editor of the Berlin
Morgenpost, leads the Switzerland
ropagandists, who already have es-
tablished a paper The Erie Zeitung,
to further their attempts to spread
the doctrine of German republic IN
the fatherland. From other sources
this government learns that the Ger
man people "are increasingly anX-
ious" for peace.
The Berlin Vorwaerts says Who
ever wishes may read between the
lines that the German government is
prepared to conclude peace without
annexation and indemnities, and
would even be glad to get it, but does
not dare to say so.
Georg Bernhard regrets that
henceforth nobody will be able to
Judge from the statements of the
government what its war aims really
are. "That nobody knows what the
government really wants." he says,
SIS the explanation OF the confusion
of counsels. Our leading statesman
does not lead"
Dissatisfaction over Germany's fail
ure frankly to announce her war aims
is openly expressed in German news
paper editorials.
at is deplorable," the Tageblatt
declares, "that all declarations of the
German government regarding war
aims are unintelligible, artificial, in
distinct and of many meanings. We
have remarked this nearly every
time the chancellor has spoken on
this subject. In all these cases We
have protested that such language
was more harmful than beneficial to
the cause of the German people; that
it confirmed or permitted to continue
unchecked annexationist aspirations
which must be disappointed; that in
foreign countries it could not win us
the good will of the pacifsts, but
would be used against us by our war
mad enemies. 1t was also mistake,
as it since has been proved, that
President Wilson's direct question
concerning our war aims was evasive-
" answered by the statement that
they would be communicated the
moment we should be seated at the
green table with the representatives
of the entente"
