Joseph L. Bristew, who has been
senator from Kansas and who is sup
posed to even now be in the race for
Senator Thompson's place, is lining
up with those who are knocking on
the government under the present
management and its way of doing
things Every knocker loans aid and
encouragement to the enemy and
thus helps to continue the war Mr.
Bristow's present utterances will not
likely make him very many votes IN
1913
Not only do sympathy and incour-
agenent cut considerable figure in
time of war but also in the affairs
of our daily life. Many a poor fellow
has been given a new grip on life
and financial success by a friendly
word at. the right time. Likewise
many others have gone to ruin for a
lack of it. Better be hopeful and
cheerful than to- be a crouch, or a
knocker. q

MENTS ANNUAL REPORT

A
The report Of the state INSURANCE,
department for the year 1916 has just

surance written and insurance com
panies authorized to do business in the

records Of fires in Vermont as shown
in the reports made by insurance com
panies 10 the department These re-
ports indicate that in 1916 there were
ass fires in the state that resulted in
total loss and there were ITO that
resulted in a partial loss. The most
frequent cause Of fire was lightning
| 5l4 fires having been caused thereby
OF the 1923 fires reported the cause OF
1863 was unknown.
There were written in the state dur
ingthe year 1916 fire insurance to the
amount Of over one hundred and six
teen and one-half million dollars for

RED CROSS NOTES
What the Red Cross Does at Home in
Time of Calamity

The Nation, ILL.,, Chapter Of the
American Red Cross was organized
in the First Congregational Church of
which Rev. T. Y. Williams is pastor,
May oath. Less than 48 hours after
its organization it was called upon to
render first aid to its own community.
The directors were in the midst of
completing arrangements for whirl-
wind membership campaign, with
plans for reaching every district Of
the city and gathering a membership
Of 1000 in seven days. But the whirl-
wind came in different way. One Of
the most destructive tornadoes the
state Of Illinois has ever known
swept through Nation and the neigh
boring city of Charleston on Saturday,
afternoon, May Goth. To paint the de-
struction, restitution and suffering
that followed would be impossible.
Four hundred and ninety-six houses in
Mattoon were totally destroyed, and
452 more or less damaged.
Notwithstanding the fact that a Sc
we're hailstrom followed the tornado,
relief work began Immediately. In
less than an hour after the disaster a
citizens committee was planning Wig
orously for the increase of hospital
facilities, the care of the injured, and
the housing and feeding Of the home
less. BY 10 o'clock Sunday morning
the work was SO we'll under way that
a permanent relief committee was or
ganized. Everybody went to work
with such will that when ]. J. O'Con-
nor and his Red Cross workers reach
ed Mattoon Sunday evening every
thing that could be done 10 restore the
destruction of the disaster was under
way. The Red Cross has done splen-
did work in arranging the methods
and figures for the permanent relief.
The final settlement promises TO be
one Of the finest Of many which stand
tothe credit Of the Red Cross along
this line.
The experience has been bap-
tism not only for the local Red Cross
chapter, but also for the whole city.
1t has called the best out Of the people,
unified the interests, and given a won
derful inventory Of human assets. The
supplies which the Nation ladies had
made for the Allies in France have
all been consumed and more beside.
Interest in the relief Of suffering is no
longer casual. 1t is vital.

The first and second of these aims

has been CHASTITY failure. A scape-
goat has to be found. Is the Kaiser
the man to shoulder responsibility for
the failure and suffer the consequent

not. In him one trait predominates--
egotism. Every speech he ever made
resolves itself into a."

GERMAN MORAL BANKRUPTCY
A Government Which Itself Cut
Away the Moral Props Under IL.


After three years Of war we hear a
great deal about German man-power
being exhausted. There is renewed
talk about German finances being at
the point Of collapse. That Germany's
food supply is failing everybody
knows; that many Of her industries
are ruined, is not denied; that her
shipping and commerce have suffered
blows from which it will take gener-
alton to recover, is admitted by Ger
man business men. II is not strange
that they are reported to be urging
peace as an imperative necessity if
anything is to be saved out Of the
wreck.
But Germany has to mourn today a
greater loss than any Of those men,
toned. She has lost her reputation.
She has squandered her moral assets.
At a time when she needs to call up
all her reserves Of good faith and con-
1encc, she finds that they have been
wasted. Nobody believes her. No
body trusts her. Upon the German
Government the disagreeable evidence
that it is morally bankrupt is being
pressed from every quarter. This is
the indisputable truth which stands
out in the reception throughout the
world Of the latest peace proposals by
Germany, They meet with almost
universal skepticism and suspicion.
1t is Germany herself that has
taught the world to distrust her. A
long course of lawlessness heaped up
on dupiicity, Of brutality intermingled
with deceit, has made every utterance
Of the German Government suspect,
Hence the amazing, the painful,
unanimity with which public men and
the press in all belligcrent and neu-
trial countries have looked upon the re-
peated peace proffers Of the German
authorities as merely snare for the
unwary. Whom are they trying to
trick now! What new betrayal are
they preparing? For what fresh
burst Of fcrocity is Ill tals Z mash
Such are the questions everywhere
provoked by the German official adj
vances in behalf Of peace. Germany
ostensibly holds out an olive branch,
but prudent statesmen insist upon ex-
aiming il TO see II ii does not con-

FOR THE SOUTH'S GONE DRY

Lay the jest about the julep in the
camphor balls at last,
For the miracle has happened and the
olden days are past;
That which makes Milwaukee famous
does not foam in Tennessee.
And the lid on old Missouri is as tight

For the eggnog and the rye has gone
awry,
And the punch bowls hold carnations,
and the South,
"By Gawd, Sir, S dry"
By the still side of the hillside in Ken
lucky all is still,
For the damp refreshments must be
dipped up from the rill;
Nth Clina's stately ruler gives his
"Cola" glass a shove
And discusses local option with the
South China Gov,
For the mint bed makes pasture and
the cork screw hangeth high
And the cocktail glass is dusty and the
South,
"By Gawd, Sir, S dry"
All the nightcaps now have tassels and
are worn upon the head,
Not the nightcaps that were taken
when nobody went to bed;
When the Colonel and the Major and
the Gen'l and ledge
Met to have little nip to give their
appetite an edge,
Now each can walk chalkline when
the stars are in the sky,
For the fizz glass now is fizzless and

Though she still has pretty women and
her horses still are fast,

Now the partisans Of Straight Goods"

For what's the use Of scrapping when

ocal dagger.
Thus Ia the fa,ed and terrible pun
ikhmeni Of Germany already begin
ming. She is caping what she has
sowed. Her rulers have brought the
good name Of their country into dis
rpute. Their promises no longer
pass anywhere ut their face value.
Every Governmental move by Ger
many is closely scrutinized TO see II
some treachcry is not wrapped up In
IL. 1t is as il the word German"
had now become the international
trademark for double dealing. This
is the havoc which the German Gov
eminent, In three years, has made OF
the proud old tradition Of Deutsche
Treuel Today Germans look around
the horizon and see nowhere friend,
nowhere a nation that will accept the
bare pledge Of the German Govern
ment Everywhere they perceive disik

ishment of Germany for her crimes,
and IL is not TO be wondered at that
many of her citizens are crying out
that the punishment is greater than
they can bear
In their long-studied plans to win
the great war, the German military
rulers depended mainly upon two
things--terrorism and trickery. Both
have not only failed them, but have
recoiled upon them with tremendous
and disastrous effect. Against Ger
man brutality, the exhaustless hero
isms of the soul of man rose in
mighty flood Like the man in
Browning's "Instans Tyrannus," Bel
GUM "stood erect, caught at Gods
skirts, and prayed" so that, today, it
is Germany that it afraid.
Even more overwhelming for Ger
many than the reaction against her
barbarous methods in war is the in
evitable result, as we see it now, Of
her treaty-breaking, her under
ground plotting, her treacherous deal
ing with nations at peace with her.
The time has come when the German
desires to have its acts
and words credited, but finds that it
has itself cut away the moral props
under it. Its fair language today is
read in the light Of Bethmann Holl-
weg's talk of peace in December, 1916,
though he afterward admitted that he
was merely seeking to gain time to
build submarines and make the war
more ferocious than ever. The in
tercepted Zimmerman note is not
forgotten. The German Foreign Office |
has made itself the synonym for I'M
The German Gov
eminent has discrcdited in advance its

mans hand against it.
