Mr.. Elliott meets Uncle Joe Cannon
about every day, and the veteran rep.
Iesentative seems to get slightly
younger as the war grows older. Mr.
Elliott tells Of a parable, which Uncle
Joe recited lately, by way of answer
to a question which was put to him
The question was why he, Uncle Joe,
didn't rise up, recently, and answer a
loud and sensational speech which a
southern representative cut lose in the
House, lambasting some members of
the Illinois delegation in language so
Sulphurous that it was not permitted
IN the record.
Being questioned thus, Uncle Joe re-
sponded with his parable: Once,
when l was boy said he, L slipped
up on polecat and kicked it. After
ward, l made up my mind never to do
that again"

Britain Living In
False Atmosphere,
Declares Bonar Law

LONDON, Aug. IL Warning that
Great Britain could Lot go on spend
ing money at the present rate without
serious disadvantage was given recent
ly In the House of Commons by An
drew Bonar Law, Chancellor of the
Exchequer. The disadvantage, he said
would be realized more completely
when the war was over than now
So long as the government was rails
ing funds for prosecution of the war
by loans, Mr.. Law told the House Of
Commons, the country was living in
false atmosphere. The position after
the end of the war. he predicted would
require all the skill and ability which
the government could exercise. He
added that he would like to have
raised a larger proportion of the war
expenditures by revenues, but he
pointed out the dangers of excessive
taxation.
The government at present is fl
nancing the war, aside from aid re-
ceived from the United States, by use
of short term exchequer bonds and
treasury bills. The latter are mount
ing rapidly and about G71O,000,0 900
sterling Of them are outstanding.

CONNERSVILLE, Ind. Aug. IL
Representative R. n. Elliott, who is at
home for a vacation of few weeks,
which the House is taking in order to
let the Senate catch up with some of
its gigantic work, was passingly &C
quainted with Washington before his
election to Congress-
The Washington then and the Wash
in gton of today display such differ
ences, such changes Of manner and OF
precaution, that anyone, who knew the
city before, and who awakened from
a Rip Van Wrinkle sleep and walked
into it today, would know at once that
something tremendous had happened.
The something, of course, is the world
war.
Used to Go Freely.
Visitors used to go to the White
House freely. Nowadays the man who
gets into the mansion, or even into
the grounds, does so after most
searching examination, and after he
has made it plain that he has urgent,
consequential business, demanding his
going.
A literal swarm of secret service
men guard the place all day. At night,
armed soldiers, rows of them, patrol
the confines of the historical pile and
nobody passes. 1t is doubtful if any
sovereign, prince, potentate or other
man was ever more closely guarded
than President Wilson is.
The treasury, where the nations
money lies, great bins of it, holding
millions upon millions, once was free
to the visitor, and one Of the mag
netic points of the capital. Now he
who gets inside the fascinating place,
does so after an investigation of him
self, his business there, his past and
his racial ties which no pro-German
could fabricate.

GERMANY BLAMED
for MASSACRE.
OF THOUSANDS
Irish Leader Says that Berlin
Gave Word for Armenian
Murders.

CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y. Aug. lit.
P. O'Connor, MP, the Irish national
list leader in an address on the Armen-
ian situation, here this afternoon told
of Germans responsibility for the
slaughter of thousands in Armenia.
Il am content" he said, Ito have
the merits and the aims of the two
sets of belligerents tested by this
lamentable facts in this whole tragic
story that the German rulers have
played terrible part in these mass
acres-I say rulers deliberately for
we have many Germans earnestly in
terested in the fate of the allies-I
have met one of them at various Ar
menian conferences, DR.. Leipsius.
Massacres Ordered
There was a German consul in
nearly every single one Of the great
Armenian settlements where the
massacres took place. The wires were
open as we know between the Armen-
ian settlements and Constantinople
for the massacres were ordered by
telegram from the government in
Constantinople. If the wires were
open between Armenia and CONSTANT
nople they were open between Arme-
MIA and Berlin.
For a generation the voice of Ber-
lin has been omnipotent in CONSTANT
nople; at the very moment the troops
of Germany and Turkey We're fight
ing side by side.
Blames Germany Also
1t is now clear, therefore, that Ber-
lin had only to say a word and the
massacres would not have begun, and
even if they had begun would not a
word have brought them to an imme-
date end? For these reasons I feel
entitled to say that the guilt of these
hideous massacres lies at the door of
the German as we'll as of the Turkish
authorities. If I needed further proof
Of this fact | would point to the &C
ton of the representatives Of Ger
many; to Wangenheim refusing your
ambassador, Mr.. Morgenthaus' appeal
of intervention; to Count Bernstorff's
attempt at Washington to deny the
massacre; to the statement of Beth
mann-Hollweg, Zimmerman and other
German officils in Berlin, which if
they did not justify, at least extenu-
ated this horrible, gigantic, unsur-
passed crime against humanity"
Glad U. S. Entered War
And having that conviction how
can /, how can any man who loves
liberty, hates oppression, loathes cru
city and massacre, how can l help
feeling that I am on the right side
when I feel myself in hostility to the
present regime in Germany? How
can look for hope for the Armenians
except in the defeat of both Turkey
and Turkeys ally, the militarist party
in Berlin? For these reasons l rejoice
that your great country has entered
the war, has made the wise and the
just and the humane choice in the
war"
