SAILORS DREAD SOME CARGOEs
Sugar Is 10 BE More Avoided Than
ShiDIoad of Dynamite.

At first sight 1t would seem that
dynamite was a cargo to be carefully
avoided. But from a sailors point OF
view there are far more dangerous
loads. He dreaGs, .or instance. car
20 of sugar Put hundreds of tons Of
cane sugar in casks I'm the hold of a
vessel and let the ship steam thru 4
belt cf hot weather The oGor is sick
enine. The sailors cannot get the
swee, taste ont of their mouths. They
crave vinegar or lemon juice my
thing sour. They lose their appe1tes
and are always glad when n voyage OIL
which the cargo was sugar is over.
Coffee is as disagreeable as sugar.
IN addition to belrg very dangerous
Cotton is really dangerous cargo.
If little oil happens 10 touch raw
cotton the result is what is calleo
spontaneous combustion. A single Dale

as boiled lnsced and lying at the bot
tom Of holi, can he compared only
TO q slow match attached to 2 bomb
Acids and other chemicals form
dangerous cargocs. Carbide OF cal
cium, for instance, is more dangerous
than dynamite. Acctylene gas is made
from this chemical. and the gas IL
constantly given off If the product is
exposed TO air.
Shipmasters DISLIKE carrying drums
of acid whore they cannot be reache"
readily. A Chilecn ship put in at tho
Falkland Islands leaking badly. Her
cargo was made uD of drums of acid
and chalk. The acid had leaked from
the Crums and mixed with the chalk.
forming carbonic acid gas in the mold
This gas is deadly and the crew could
not make repairs. Meantime the acid
had gathered at the bottom OF the

New YOrk's Patriotism.

Editor Tulsa Daily World, Tulsa,
Okla-Dear Sir-There appeared in
local editorial column recently an
article about New York. As an
American citizen. born in New York
city. | wish to voice my indignation
thru your paper of the publishing Of
such writings.
| wish to state that the gentleman
who wrote the illuminating editorial
in which New York, and Broadway
particularly, are flayed for their lack
of patriotism is evidently one Of the
few who has never seen that section
OF our glorious country.
Having just returned from New
York, will vouch for the first state
ment that New York is ablaze with
patriotism; flags and bunting drape
the private houses and public build
ings" But further than this, his ar
ticle is preposterous and insulting.
As to the cabaret appeals for en-
listments / cannot say. Patriotism
in cabaret singer Is not TO be Won
dered at, but can be received with
credence.
The article (Which l will not mis-
name editoriaD then proceeds to
knock" New York by stating that
"the impression prevails that Broad
way is zero In the matter of enlist
ments" The writer failed 10 state
where the impression originated;
probably in his own fertile brain, far
removed from the scene U refer to
the EDITORS nonresidence in New
York;. The harangue continues in
a bitter invective to arraign the
young men of New York for their
lack of manhod when it is a known
fact that more troops have been raised
in New York city than in any other
city in the Union in every past emer-
gency
Statistics further show that the city

THE sUPERMAN AS A CoMRADE.

In common with all our dreams OF
| greatness and perfection we like 10
nurse the idea Of the superman, a be-
| ing who has followed all that is best
| In human development until he has
reached the zenith Of accomplish
ment. It Is u pleasant prospect 10
think that some day manhood will rise
far above its present petty fOibles and
impcrfcctlons and show us what hui
mauity is at its best The trouble IS
that We do not try 10 follow the In
spiratlon Of such a dream and make
ourselves to reach up after the stand
ard OF this conception. The aspirl-
ton of supcrmanhood is within The
reach OF all An We need TO do is 20
ditest ourselves Of every impedimont
which prevents tho highest natural
Development iu both physical and in
tcllcctull excellence. Whatever tends
20 deterioration or retrosrossiou must
bc bauishcd from our own l.yos IL we
would approach the pinnacle. Whether
man iu the abstract Will ever reach
this happy state remains 90 be seen
He does not at present manifest any
great desire 20 rid himself Of those
things which prevent his improve
m,nt.
but there IS one phase II tho quos-
tion that is not $50 fun OF promise
Some people have decided they are al
ready SO far above the common level
Of humanity as to be qualified to
dominate the entire race and enforce
their "kultur" upon the unwilling
multitude. They have self.con-
ceivod form Of supermanhood and have
not acquired the mental balance TO
estimate themselves at their real
value. We all Ike 10 play with the
doctrine OF the superman above all
moral restrictions; but when a power
find We cannot i've in the same town
with him. and We put him under re-
straint The suporman may be pleas
ant to look upon from distance, but
up as the divinely appointed chosen
people to inhabit and control the
whole earth without respect for the
rights of those who are so unfor-
tunate as TO belong 10 an inferior
race. it is time to cali halt and eX-
anime into the credentials Of those
who make the arrogant claim.
That is where the difficulty lies
with the European situation. The
Germans started out with the plea
that they were I'm danger of being
crowded off the earth unless they took
up the sword to force their neigh
bors to stand aside and give them
room. Now they tell us Tint the vlr-
tue Of force Is justified 10 spread the
Tcutonic propaganda over an the
earth ana that It Is righteous to sub
merge other peoples to give free rein
to a superior race of people. The In
sistence is intolerable and Of course
results in forclble resistance from all
other people to prevent the scheme
Germany has convinced the whole
world that cooperation must be sub
stitutcd for competition. for out Of
the German challenge has grown u
graf group of cooperating nations
including the United states. When
the real superman makes his appear
ance we will be apt to give him n
place in the sun" but we are not
likely to tamely submit to this arro-
CANT assumption Of superiority when
springs from n consciousness Of force
as the arbiter Of human excellence.

Communicated


The local high school basket
ball team left Thursday morsing
for Moscow, where it will take
part in the basketball tournament
being staged by the State Uni
versity at that place. The win
ners of the tournament will be
considered the champions of the
state, only the teams in the
southern part of the state, which
are usually considered as inferior
in strength to those of the north
ern section, not being invited.
The high schools invited to
take part in this tournament are:
Boomers Ferry, Post Falls, st.
Maries, Kellogg, Orofino, Nez
Perez, Lewiston and Moscow, on
ly those teams being invited
which have won most of their
games. Post Falls has not been
defeated by any Idaho team, los
ing only to Spangle, champions of
Spokane county. st. Maries has
won twelve games and lost two,
both to Post Falls. Kellogg has
lost twice to st. Maries and once
to Wallace. Both Moscow and
Lewiston have had their turn at
defeating each other and Moscow
lost to OrOfinO. Nez Perez claims
to be indicated.
Since no game has been played
between teams of this section and
those of the Lewiston section. il

of the teams of the two districts,
but 1T is believed by many that
the northern teams will be found
the strongest. Coach Hofstet-
ter is saying nothing concerning
the prospects of his team, but
says that he expects Post Falls TO
make the strongest run for the
championship.
The local team has made an
excellent showing, easily defeat
ing most of the teams played, and
losing only to the strong Post
Falls team, which was played al
most to an even break. Another
feature has been the consistent
style of play shown by the team
the good condition of the players
making it unnecessary to remove
a single man from any game dur
ing the season for injuries. The
team has also played very clean
ball, making less fouls than its
opponents in every game played,
with one exception, and was COM
mended by Coach Woodward of
Spokane, who refereed the Wal
lace game, for its fair conduct.
The score of the season thus far
has been: S. M. II. s., 5O4; OPP
ponents, 2S3.
The preliminary games at the
tournament viii be played on
Friday, lots being drawn to de-
termine which teams shall OPP
pose each other, and the winners
.of these games will compete on
Saturday.
Those making the trip from st.
