The "Onicial Bulletin" published by
the government at the expense of all
the people, men and women alike. con-
tains an argument against the methods
OF those women who are urging upon
the President their right Of suffrage.
Thus the women who want the cam
paign for equal suffrage continued, are
taxed to pay for the publication Of ar
guments against their own convictions.
The Congressional Record may con-
tain one-sided arguments, paid for by
the public, but the Record is open for
the presentation of both sides of any
question. In this respect it differs from
"Oflcial Bulletin" There may be a
difference of opinion as to the merits
Of equal suffrage but there ought not
be any difference as to the evil of pub
lie maintenance Of an organ whose
columns are open to the advocates Of
only one side of a public issue.

SHARED them and turned them out. A
cold rain came on and he was too lazy
and improvident to care for them: they
died Of exposure.
OF course there are bad dogs, the
dogs of fool owners who permit their
dogs to become public nuisances. OF
course dogs DO kill sheep and get into
other mischief, as do men who know
no restraint. Dogs cannot study up
thousandth part of the cussedness to
enter into that man who knows no
more than a dog, can. He just natur-
ally likes to see things run, and it is all
kinds of fun for a dog to chase sheep.
And thus springs the big indictment
against dogs, for when he gets to run
ming sheep and firing them out and
downing them, and then the taste of
warm blood--well. then is the time to
save" that dogs life with charge of
buck shot
But the dog wasn't to blame; it was
his needless owner who neither knew
nor cared, probably, where his dog
went. night or day. Dogs should be
under restraint as other domestic ami
mails are restrained, and owners of dogs
proven guilty should pay damage, as
do owners of cattle that break into the
enclosure of another.
Every dog owner should know where
his dog is and must remain during the
night. If dog takes to making long
trips or absences. he should be made to
stay at home, even if the services of
chloroform are required.
But when a man who doesn't know
anything about dogs or the natural,
unwavering human love for dogs, sets
out to revolutionize other peoples in
diligence in sentiment, he is truly play
ing with an uprising. We remember
OF hearing a public spaker declare that
this dog business is all sentiment and
we must replace it with common

sentiment are good shot guns and de-
termined minds that are sure to be
used to defend the right to sentiment.
We know a family where the father
has been unable to do any sort of work
for years. He eats almost as much as
ever. The food he consumes would be
more than enough to save the lives Of
two Belgians. His food and clothing
expense, if applied to government
needs, would help out the rum trust in
providing revenue. He can never be
other than an expense. He isn't even
as good as a dog, because he can't
chase the hens out of the dooryard or
go after the cows. Yet his wife and
children insist on keeping him around
and alive as long as they can. They
even seem to think it is their right to
keep him and to suffer some hardship
for him. He can look his thanks for
their devotion and loyalty to him, but
that is all he is good for-just to love

THE Austrian Reichsrath was thrown
into an uproar Saturday when the for
mer Czech minister, Praschek, declared
that the hate of the entire world was
directed not against Austria but against
Germany, and that Austria should de-
tach herself from her ally, says a Wen
ma dispatch.
How are we to obtain peace" de-
manded Praschek. IF we cling to the
German side? Must we continue to
sacrifice our interests to the expansion
OF Germany Must we continue to sub
NIT to the German militarism that has
drawn US into this war;"
The determination of the Kaiser and

now hates Germany.

dis Your Bow Goino?"

A writer in the August Woman's
Home Companion says:
Close to me lives a man whose in
terests have been separated from mine
by more than a mere ivy-grown stone
fence-to be exact, by several hundred
thousand dollars. The other day he
leaned over the fence and inquired:
Your boy going?'
Yes
Mine, too. Had a notion he didn't
want to wait for CONSUMPTION. BY the
way. those elephants Of yours are not
coming on very we'll. May I send my
man over with some fertilizer that has
helped ours?'
The fence is Still there-but not
the barrier. Our boys and our coun-
try leveled it.
There's bound to be lot Of such
leveling from this time on. Some Of
us who have been too busy to get ac-
qUainted are going to know each other.
Some who have been too absorbed by
money making and reputation seeking
to make friends will suddenly feel the
need of comradeshp. Some Of US who
have worried because our neighbors
dressed better than we did. had finer
photograph, or ran a faster car are
going to have our eyes opened to the
falseness Of the standards by which
we have judged ourselves and each
other. We're going to like each other
great deal better and to need each
other great deal more"
On an electric car the other day we
overheard one gentleman say to anoth-
er: Yes, my son has gone to the

We notice that the Vigilantes have
set off mine under George Sylvester
viereck That ought to do the air a
lot Of good. The Vigilantes quote a
quantity of seditious matter from Vie
reck's so-called American Weekly"
but there is one choice bit they might
have quoted, but didn't.
1t is this:
"They (the German -Americans) are
willing to give all for America They
are unwilling to give a farthing for
England"
Against that piece of cheap anglo
phobia we should like to set this para
graph from Colonel Roossvelt's Fourth
of July speech
ANY man who now announces that
although he favors the United States
against Germany, yet he favors Ger
many against England, is a traitor to
America. There can be no halfand
half attitude in this war, and no honor,
able man can afford to take such an
attitude. We are now bound by every
consideration Of loyalty and good faith
to our allies, and any opposition to
them or any aid given to their and our
enemy Is basely dishonorable as re-
CARDS our allies and reasonable as re-
CARDS our own country
We doubt very much whether any
German Americans who are unwilling
to give a farthing for one of our allies
can be trusted to give "all for Amer
ican."
1t is high time for real Americans
to think for themselves. They have
allowed anti British suggestions to be
implanted and nourished in their gray
matter by just such devilish cunning az
has been plotting self1shly in every
country The German underground po-
lit!cal engine is more deadly than the
U-boat. Let Americans consider what
