ment from destruction and our country
from becoming = dependency Of the
German Kaiser.
We have plenty good loyal Ameri-
cans who will answer the call of our
country and rally to the colors to de-
fend the principles of democracy and
the rights of free men to govern them
selves. those who have already enlisted
and gone to the front are sustaining
the high standard of American sold
iers.
Our people have shown their patri-
otism by their liberality in furnishing
the money required, and we can rest
assured that our country will not be
in want of sufficient money to carry
on our part of the war as long as it
lasts, and until German militarism
and autocratic rule has been crushed
and lasting peace secured for all the
nations of the world.
While it is true that We have all the
resources to supply and equip an army
and navy of millions of men, still we
should not ignore the fact that we are
fighting the greatest military power
in the world, that we are fighting
against a monarch who has prepared
for more than forty years for this con-
flict, and awaited the time when the
balance of the civilized world had
allowed their military establishments
to be reduced. and the people had
turned their attention and devoted all
their energies to the building up of
government giving the people civil and
religious rights and promoting the
prosperity and happiness of its citi-
zens. In making these preparations
this ambitious monarch has flooded
the nations whom he contemplated
crushing with missionaries and spies
for the purpose of creating uprisings
and dissentions among the people and
this weakened their powers of defense.
Our own country has not been spared,
on the contrary, men from Germany
and other countries in sympathy with

The voluminous press agents are
pretty smart fellows in their simple
ways but they are not quite smart
enough to get their yards of hogwash
in this journal. Whenever we get so
we cannot do our own editing we may
hire some of these duminaries to do
it for US, but not yet.

The United States mint in Denver
has been engaged for months now in
turning out 100000 pennies a day. 1t
seems at last that we have gotten
down to the one-cent basis. This
coin, long despised here in the west,
is coming into general use because of
the war taxes. The nickel has ceased
to be the minimum price of small
purchases. The first corners paid in
gold dust and nuggets; the pioneer
miner had the dollar as his lowest unit,
but gradually he condescended to use
the half dollar as chicken feed.
Years passed before he held the two
bit piece seriously and only with the
coming of the high cost of living did
he begin to use the five-cent coins.
Now everybody is complaining be-
cause there are SO few pennies and
thus we are forced down to the cheap
basis of the eastern idea.

THAT AMERICAN LOOK

Several foreign papers have remark.
ed on the appearance Of the American
soldier As . type 50 intensely individ-
ual that it has evoked interest in q
world whose jaded vision can but pic
ture men in khaki.
The one point which in this time Of
strain and stress has gained such
wide attention has been ''the American
!o0k"-that expression of intensified
keenness (Which tie English mistook
for seriousness). the look connoting
eagerness, zest. and-best of ali
still unsatisfied interest n tie world.
OF all the races existing today it
would appear that the Americans are
the most composite. But by the in
standardization of all peoples has
come this product of our country
the American soldier. For the mil
lionaire's son, the athlete, the counter
jumper, the farmer. the cowboy and
the professor have Joined the army.
As they march by you search each
face to trace some difference of ex-
preston; but you find a common "a
comrosire-look that covers all and
converts great living mass Of men
into one great expression of American
mamie od.
1t is the look of America awake!
1t stands Tor vision, for zeal. and, God
granting, it stan6s for courage that
will make the wor d better and bright
er by its arm of might.
The lines come swinging towards
US. those long lines of men in khaki;
men iron the West With skins bronzed
by the wind of the prairie and noun
tains; boys from the South with lam
guild look and smile; clerks from the
desks of Wall street; rich mems sons
whose names have been byword for
bright lights and extravaganza
marching side by side under the Stars
and Stripes
Call it climate, conditions of soil,
prosperity, struggle-but out of the
melting pot of our free land, out of
the maelstrom of immigration of Slav,
Tueton, Latin, Magyar. has evolved a
type-the American soldier. Hats
off, as he passes onward to his goal.

DOUBLE CENSORSHIP
ON AMERICAN news

Washington, June 27.-It has been
learned the war department is plan
ming a double censorship on news
from the American front in France.
One censor will be at General j. J.
Pershing's headquarters and the other
in Washington.
Under the proposed system news
dispatches from France would not go
Immediately to their destinations in
the United States, but be- diverted
from the cable in New York to Wash
ington, where they would be given out
for distribution, all newspapers and
news services being entitled to receive
them. Thus it is possible that under
the proposed arrangement America
would receive news Of British and
French activities before intelligence
of it's own arnly's engagements.
It is still said to be undecided how
many American correspondents will be
permitted to accompany the United
States expedition for the American
press, although the number, it was de-
clared, will be small. The four orig
inally suggested was thought by some
military men to be too large.

DEBATE IN HOUSE OF LORDS

Baron Sydenhar, Former Chairman o,
Air Board, Deprecates Policy of Re
taliaton-Earl of Derby Declares
England Should Not Try to Initiate
German Brutality.
London, June 27.-No intention OF
yielding to the widespread demands
for reprisals on German towns for the
German air raids on England was
shown in debate on the subject in
the house of lords.
The question having been raised by
Lord Strachie, Baron Sydenham, for.
mer chairman of the air board, depre.
Gated the policy of reprisals. He said
he feels sure that in future years the
British will be thankful they had not
lowered themselves to the level of the
Germans.
Furthermore, it is not generally
realized that bombing reprisals of a
military nature are a systematic and
daily occurrence behind the German
lines. He invites the government to
tell the country something about these
operations.
Must Not Initiate Germany.
In behalf of the government the
Earl of Derby, minister Of war, ex.
pressed belief the whole country will
associate itself with the suggestion
that England should not try to imi
tate German brutality.
He added on the authority of the
head Of the aircraft service in France
that for every bomb the. Germans
dropped behind the British lines the
British dropped hundred behind the
German lines.
This bombing, he said, had a solely
military object and the government
considered nothing should be done to
tie the hands of military authorities
in the employment of the aircraft at
their disposal in the best way to
bring the war to a successful conclu.
