We Americans think that there are
none in our class, when it comes to
push, but the so-called easy-going
Britishers have given us something
to stare at. Somewhere in ENGLAND"
they've put up in three months, a
machine gun factory covering nearly
three acres and are now turning out
a steady stream OF guns and 1000
machines driven by electricity and op-
Grated by women. The main building
required 1920 tons of steel, $500
panes of glass, and was completed in
40 days. For fat and heavy fellow,
John Bull certainly gets up a lively
gait, with war behind him.

A CRISIS PASSED.

r A. few anarchists we always have
in our midst; we also always have
a considerable number of recently
arrived immigrants who do not at
all understand our governmental proc
esses. Take out the disturbance caus-
ed bv these two elements and the
registration for selective service
would appear as about the most
peaceful operation we ever engaged
In nationally.
Our professional anarchists naural-
ly take advantage of any occasion
when anybody is dissatisfied with any
thing. In Wisconsin, Michigan and
Minnesota are large bodies of aliens
who imagined that the registration
meant they were to be shipped back
to foreign horrors from which they
had fed. In the southwestern states
are lot of Mexicans, who are sick
of the very word, war Even our In
dian fellow-Americans in Arizona got
,,1lbtous over the idea otS leaving their
en fortable ressrya inns; IS and Of
ssSarse these elements 81 our po la'1
ton will be about the last to 'be Sc
lected for service-an important fact
that thy did not realize.
Altogether 1t was day In which
important war business was pushed
forward calmly, deliberately and sue
cessfully. good many national cleo
lions have witnessed more lawless-
ness.
If ever any danger Of popular out
break against selective service exist
ed, it has passed, and the authorities
directly engaged in carrying out war
measures can 80 ahead with complete

Liberty Loan bonds are for those
who can afford to invest in them,''
says one of the loan booster adver-
tisements. This is true enough. Be
tween the investment Il feature and
that of actual devotion to country and
sacrifice there are several billions of
bonds yet to come. Even failure to
fully subscribe to the present issue
wouldn't indicate much beside the
fact that, until congress gets taxation
fixed, lot of the folks won't know
what they can afford.

Washington, D. c., June 11-Popu-
lar and powerful as Arthur Balfour
has been in welding the war spirit
of England and America. as head of
the British mission, Great Britain is
replacing him with even a stronger
and more popular influence toward
more spirited American participation
in, the war.
England sends Lord Northcliffe to
America because he is the most suit
able man for the job. He is the most
American Of all Englishman, a Ma
poleon in his actions, genius in
foresight, the man of destiny who,
according to the late Count Tolstoy,
is to end the war.
America welcomed Lord Northcliffe
in 1909 as England's greatest news
paper man. He was known then as
the millionaire owner of some As
newspapers in Great Britain, who rev.
olutionized English journalism by his
American methods, who was despised
for his radical tactics and envied for
his remarkable genius and foresight.
Now Lord Northcliffe comes as the
greatest man in England, who opened
Englands eyes by his revelations of
her military inefficiency at the begin
ming of the war, hammered at the
truth until he caused complete
change in the government for the bet
ter, and is getting action for his
democratic demands of the British
government. d.

.ARErpoLLARs PATRIOTIC?

r. a. Dollars PATRIOTIC? 49,"
The results of the flotation Of the
l ;2eOoOoooo0 Iiitaiayf Loan will show
! whether the American people are re-
ally patriotic when their pocket nerve
Is affected.
They are not asked to give their
money to their country, but to lend it
at very good rate of interest.
And in this call to serve with their
savings, Uncle Sam wants to hear
from the little fellows just as much
, as from the big ones. In fact, the
more little fellows the better because
1t will keep just that many Of the
multimillionaires from investing their
money in something that Is not tax
able. VT {. fl
We Americans Of small means may
in this matter, at least, take. leaf
out of the German book.
The biggest of the German war
loans was issued in September, 1915.
1t brought in $3,o25,OOO,ooO. There
were 3,966,4lS subscribers, of whom
9S4,35S bought $50 or less; S5S,259
bought from SIS to 1925; 91S,595
bought from $3.50 to $3.50, while 952,-
sol bought from $3.50 to 1880.
In other words, "a per cent of the
investors were small investors. And
these small investors took $95S, 0OO,-
900 of the loan. That is about 30 per
cent of the total German loan and
almost so per cent of what our gov
eminent is seeking.
II every American who has saved a
little money will be as patriotic as the
Germans, the bulk of this loan will go
to the men and women who have no
great surplus of wealth. And that is
exactly where it should go.

confidence,

Having 13 dependent children by
his wife now dead and 20 by his pres
ent wife, a Connecticut man claimed
exemption from selective service,
Thirty-three perfectly good reasons
ought to be enough to let him out OF
the fighting. But, when it comes to
the paying, we've got this gent dead
to rights, by lowering the family
mans income tax exemption to $4,000.
1t is to be presumed that this man,
being able to keep 80 children alive,
has $4,000 income.

That if need be he will sing his
hymn OF hate from the gallows in an
effort to do all in his power to de-
feat the Liberty Loan was the sense
of a challenge which A. C. ToWnley,
president of the Nonpartisan League,
hurled in the teeth of Theodore Void,
president of the Ninth reserve bank,
at the leagues jamestown meeting
Saturday.
Townley's Demands
1--WE demand here and now and all
the time, and we will continue to de-
nand from tFfsi pi&tfr6m ;aafrom this
roadside; from THE K0usetop; from
the country, If need be, from the fed
eral penitentiary, or even from the
gallows--for if you are to make that
sacrifice I can make any sacrifice, and
I am not afraid--we will demand that
this nation or the rulers Of this ma
ton, fearing now not so much for
us andiour country as for yourselves,
you rulers of this nation using this
war now to multiply youramilhons of
war profits; I'VE demand OF you, afraid
of,the autocracYi of Germany; afraid of
the aut0cr&cy Of Europe,if youi fear
that autocracy may come, across the
waters and rob you of your power
to rob us; if you are afraid and you
want us to go to war and give our
lives, we say to you that you. must
send proof to us that. you are sin
cere. You must make this arrange
ment, that when we give our lives, all
that we have, this nation will take
first of your profits and then of the
property you have got, if the profit is
not enough; and after the war is
over we will give back, as you will
give back, of our lives, as much as
is left, and no more"
