KAISER DISAPPROVES OF
LIBERTY BONDS

TNHE enthusiasm with which the coun-
L try has risen to meet the Govern
meht's second Liberty Loan appeal Is
as enheartening as a great victory In
the field. 1t will be good news TO our
men across the water. 1t Is tho most
vivid and practical way TO tell them we
are with them every minute of the time
in their fight against Kaiserism.
These bonds we buy are their weapons.
airplanes, rifles, ammunition. These
bonds are their comfort and relief; food,
blankets. ether. But It Is not enough
merely TO furnish the three billions. 1t
must be done quickly, willingly and with
o big margin to spare. Tho message
must go like a shot straight from our
pockets to the second.noor front suite
de luxe in the palace at Potsdam so
that Potsdamnation shall know exactly
where 1t gets off.
II is q good thing to indict seditious
men. That pleasure is reserved to the
Grand Jury. But every citizen can in
dict the traitors in our midst by buy
ing bond. An overwhelming flood of
bond buyers will silence the La Follettes
more surely than expulsion from the
Senate. For no tricky peace-at-any-price
quibbler will attempt to address a crowd
wearing Liberty Bond badges.
And Germany is watching us.

REPRIsALS AS PREvENTIvEs

THE French are in no doubt about
l. aerial reprlsals. The English are.
Americans have not been called upon to
take stand in the smatter, as German
machines have not brought the question
home to us by bombing our cities. But
the Allied nations, including America,
are fighting as a unit against Germany
and in the long run are responsible for
each others policies. Our air fleet will
be to all intents and purposes an integral
part of the Allied air forces, and American
opinion of reprisals is sure to have
weight.
Reprisal upon noncombatants in the
spirit OF pure revenge is unquestionably
wrong. As q means of preventing mur.
der it can be defended. If the Germans
started numbering prisoners and the only
way to make them stop was to kill
prisoners, there would be few objections
to this reprisal. If the only way to stop
German air raids is to raid German cities
Allied Governments owe it to their citi
zens to adopt this policy. An ultimatum
might be given to Germany first, copies
of which could be distributed among the
people back of the elines by airplane. Their
tho sufferings brought home to the Ger
man people could be expected to beal
| fruit in an attempt to stop the massacres
in English and French cities.

ORGANIZED TREASON

THE Governpent was not n minute too
l. soon in sitting the malodorous con-
spiracy of the I. w. w. The program of
the organization was incredibly traitor
Gus. Kerosene was to be poured into
bakers ovens, emery powder was to be
thrown into the gears of all sorts of ma
chimes, locomotives were to be disabled
and rendered useless.
In a letter written by one Rowan to
Haywood on August 2 1t is declared that
"the old bugaboo of patriotism is being
preached Oh all sides. We have the good
will Of the German people here, and we
feel that they are in sympathy with our
cause. We are going TO carry our points
if we have to stop every industry on the
Pacific coast" Talk about copperheads
Why, they never dreamed of such propa
ganda as this.
But the leaders of the wreckers have
been indicted. The machinery Of the law
will get them, traitors alike to their owr
associates and to their country. Before
we get through with some of these people
even Benedict Arnold may appear to hav,
been but q meek and mild traitor In com
parison.

But let us take leaf from the life Of
an eX-school teacher VIII Lou, who has
been at Camp Meade only about q week,
but that was enough for promotion:
We came here last Thursday. snd two
days ago l managed TO get my first shower
bath by walking mile or so. For the
first six days and four nights 1 was busy at
clerical work, collecting statistics of the
new men. ages, previous conditions of servi-
tude and size Of clothing. The work grew
lighter and the captain knew never like to
be idle. so he yanlSed me out for drill ever
since and dubbed me temporary corporal.
OF course, know practlcll llly nothing
about this business, but usually my men
know less.
Grub is satisfactory C"Man wants but
little-") and well cooked but mighty
simple. Sugar as sugar Is invisible, though
It Is said to exist in coffee and tea. Boxes
of candy are consumed on soclallstic
basis, and the owner Is lucky to get half a
dozen pieces. Reading matter outside OF
irregular newspapers, Is totally lacking
But in the end, life isn't nearly so exciting
as it's cracked up to be- and there are more
thrills In teaching school than in instructing
seven men to drill as one.

We were speaking the other day OF the
involutions of Hennery -Jymes, and now
comes c. B. V. to add to the discussion
a few choice sentences from Hennery's
very own introduction to a book by de
Maupassant, in which II. ]. goes straight
to tho point, even II the words he slings
are bit hefty. There's a punch in the
last sentence that'll make you take the
count: Guy de Maupassant devoted
much time to the moral that to prove
that you have a first,rate talent you must
have lrst-rate style. He therefore
learned to write. and acquired an instru-
ment which emits no uncertain sound.
He is wonderfully concise and direct, yet
at the same time It would be difficult to
characterize more vividly. He has ac-
cepted the necessity of being brief, and
has made brevity very full, through
making it an energetic selection.
What is clearest to him is the immit.
liability OF our mortal predicament, with
its occasional beguilements and its in
Vulnerable woes"
