In view of the involvement of
these prominent Irish-American lead
ers in the Easement plot and its Ger
man ramifications, it is little to be
wondered at that they should have en-
deavored to shoulder upon the .Ameri-
can Government the responsibility for
the arrest of Easement. The Gaelic
sympathetic German-American press
charged this Government with having,
on the strength of information OBJ
tanned from the seized Won 1gel pa
pers, advised the British Government
of the revolutionary plot and Case
ment's part therein.
The Department of State and the
Department of Justice promptly re-
futed the charges. When the Won 1gel
papers were seized in New York the
district attorney and his assistants
busted themselves in a search for in
| formation to sustain the indictments
which they had obtained against Won
Igel, and overlooked for the time be-
ing the great mass of other evidence
which pointed incriminatingly to 9th
ers.

NIT that the papers relating to Case
ment were sent to Washington the

Summers Glorious Opulence.

These early summer days and nights are filled
with such lavish display of natures opulence, the
delighted senses scarce can choose which of the
many attractions that assail them is most well
come. The promise of a vigorous and virile
sprngtime has been redeemed, and in the fullness
of verdure the earth is wreathed with such glory
OF greenery as only may be seen when the old
world smiles with the caress of the first soft winds
of summer. Bloom time has gone and buds
have passed from flowers into fruit; growth is
now the order, and all about is evidence Of the
response of the productive to the creative impulse.
Trees, now clad in their richest suits Of foliage,
idly toss their magnificent crowns in the gently
stirring air, or sway in majesty before the summer
gale, while in their leafy depths the wild folks OF
the great outdoors are busily attending to such
affairs as require their attention Over the fields
lushly growing grains and grasses ripple like
waters of the ocean before the wind, and orchard
and garden alike pledge bountiful returns for
mans diligence and care The thickets along the
streams TEEN with life, and from forgotten places
come forth myriads Of living things to vex man
by their presence, but to the thoughtful proof OF
natures munificence and a source OF wonder
always as to her ways. Everywhere the activity
of accumulation is in process and preparation
against that time when the sources Of life will be
dried up and stopped by the cold, still sumber of
winter,
Summertime soon passes, and autumn comes
with its rpened frutage, and winter follows to
exhaust the store. plain and prosy lesson it is
that is taught by this succession Of seedtime and
growth, of harvest and rest but one that al! must
learn who would profit by and prosper through
the teachings OF nature.

Democratic Simplicity in Army Dress.

The London Times reporter who met General
Pershing and his staff ON the occasion Of their
passage through the British metropolis was so
much impressed with the simplicity of the officers
uniforms that he described them in some detail
for the benefit of the Thunderer's readers. Espe-
cialy did he remark that compared to those Of the
British army the Americans uniforms are unob-
trusive. This may comfort some of our home
folks, who have imbibed their idea of official
dress from watching parade of the governors
staff. As matter Of fact, the American army
officer never has been given to excess in the mat
ter OF dress. While he has always been arrayed
more definitely than was Gungha Dhin, he has at
no time sought to shame the MONDAY sun, and
some OF his greatest accomplishments have been
achieved at times when his apparel was least I'M
pressiye. General Grant received the surrender
OF Robert Z. Lee attired in battered service
uniform, much worse for hard riding over dusty
roads on that memorable morning, and many
stories are related of how General Washington
went among his ipen unrecognized because of the
lack of official designation. This is one of the
secrets of the American soldier. Our European
friends may note some other departures from ira
dition in the manners of our army, but they will
find the boys" a magnificent lot OF well-behayed
young men, who may be depended upon in pinch,
and who know how to wear simple garb with
becoming dignity

More Wheat from India.

Reports from the Indian government ON the
wheat crop of that country are greatly encour-
aging, revised estimates far exceeding the pre-
liminary figures. The latest figures, based on
careful and corrected estimates, show an increase
in wheat acreage for India of per cent over 1916
and prospective increase in yield Of over II
per cent, nearly 100000 tons. The total yield
will be around 400,0O0,OOO bushels, 6s,OOO,OOO
bushels greater than 1916 Considerable of this
will be available for export, most welcome ad-
dition to the worlds supply Of grain food This
is an unexpected turn in affairs, and is all the
mort welcome because it lessons in that much
the gravity OF the food situation. 1t does not,
however, warrant any relaxation in effort to
produce to the utmost. The American wheat
harvest, now well under way, is turning out yields
FULLY equal to estimates, and reports to the
weather bureau are all favorable Energetic
work by farmers of the world have obviated
serious menace of famine, but have not as yet
produced surplus. Best qualified observers
predict continuation of this condition over a
term of years. American farmers have little to
fear from the competition Of India for hungry
nations will eat all that can be produced for a
long time ahead

Refusal Of the Interstate Commerce commits
sion to grant permission to the railroads Of the
country to make horizontal increase in freight
rates fairly meets public needs. The case was
well argued, and even specially presented on
behalf Of the roads, but with all the facts in view
the commission finds against the contention that
conditions justify general advance in charges
On the other hand, the commission did find that
the carriers have enjoyed substantial and in
creasing prosperity, and that instead Of being un-
duly burdened by the troop movements have
derived profit from that source.
Railroad earnings have increased tremen-
dousy within the last two years, a natural result
of the greater volume Of business which has taxed
all their facilities to handle. For the first four
months Of the current year gross earnings show
an increase Of $2O9,000,0O0 over 1916, which was
the banner year for railroad earnings. April
alone produced increased revenue to the amount
Of S38,000000. Against this the railroads set off
increases in operating expenses and taxes, and
put up the plea that they are working harder than
ever for no more money. The final bal
ance sheet for the year will determine
this more accurately. The plea, however,
will in general aspect fit almost all lines of busi-
ness. Some especially favored industries have
reaped great profits from the war prosperity"
but this has not extended TO ALL and few have
enjoyed the benefit Of increased business as
have the railroads.
An effort Is now being made by the federal
government to bring unreasonably elevated prices
down to justifiabe level and the railroads will
share in whatever of relief comes from this, for
the move affects the principal items in their
expense bills.
Need for new funds to pay for extensions and
betterments also Is alleged as reason for the
requested advance, Specters of the Rock Island,
Pere Marquette and C., H. & D. deals will long

confidence forfeited through shady transactions.

tollextorted by coal and steel barons, and aid In

ent freight rates will be found amply remunera-

Free Milk and Ice for the Babies.

The wars demand upon the generosity OF our
open-handed people arc, we know, so nsistent
and urgent that other charities and public enter
prises should ordinarily keep in the background
as far as possible. The Bee feels it absolutely
necessary, however to continue its fund TO supply
free milk and ice during the hot weather to the
suffering children Of poverty stricken families in
Omaha, and contributions to this fund will be
gratefully received and scrupulously devoted to
the purpose intended.
We will try to raise only few hundred dol
lars, limiting individual donations to sums Of
S. or less, so that it may not be burdensome to
any one, and that all who want to help this good
work can share in it. Contributors may rest
assured every cent will be used to pay bills for
milk and ice furnished to destitute or sickness
inflicted families with children under three years
of age--nothing for administration or Expenses"
The regular appeal for this fund will begin tomor
row, and we bespeak generous response.

Many curious instances are given in the
history of the Romanoffs as to how heirs
apparent have been cheated of their rights.
Peter the Great, for instance. left the scep-
ter to Empress Catherine l, a woman of
peasant birth, who had been chambermaid
at an inn. His grandchild, the sole off,
spring of his murdered son, and rightful
heir, was thus disinherited.
