 Tracy said last evening that he had no remembrance of the story al though he distinctly recalls that Judge Shute some time ago tee- phoned and asked him the name of the Globe correspondent of the Labor Journal. Mir. Tracy replied that he was the editor and responsible for what appeared in the paper. \ He added that if any mistake had been made the paper would willingly re- tract. The judge answered that in formation was what he wanted and that if he could find out the name of the Globe writer he would attend to it himself. His manner did not leave Tracy to believe that any ser iuus step was contemplated
 The local sheriffs office was ad- vised by telephone from Globe yes terday afternoon to make the arrest. The authorities were asked to hold Tracy. but the charge against him was not revealed. It was not until late last evening when The Republi-

the reliability and truthfulness Of the
American press. 1t is to be noted in
this connection that the report was not
given circulation through the news as
sociations upon which the great ma
jority Of the people rely for their war
news.
A newspaper is compelled, in the ma
ture OF things, to print in good faith
many statements which fuller informa-
ton proves to be inaccurate or even
unfounded. In many of these instances
there is no opportunity for verification,
but in few Of them is any serious asper-
sion cast upon the honor Of individuals
or Of nations. In making charges which
involve such aspersions, reputable
papers give their authority, and make
such efforts to verify the charges as the
circumstances allow. They attempt to
be absolutely fair, particularly in max
ing assertions affecting the nations
enemies. There are ample opportunities
in the truth itself for holding those
enemies up to the scorn and contempt
Of the world, without resorting to either
fabrications or wild and unsupported
charges made in apparent good faith
but without proper efforts at verifica
| tion.

the great fault with American freedom
is that it has been too free. Emma
Goldman went to the penitentiary for
preaching resistance to the military

comparative immunity, she has been
preaching anarchy-and anarchy Of the
raw head and bloody bones school. But
being Americans, we have subscribed to
the old creed Of free speech and let II
pass.
We have submitted more or less to

grounds. A little Of the criminality OF

THE SHIELD OF DAVID.

ST. Louis Post.Dispatch: The organi'
zatio in London Of regiment composed
entirely OF Jews. whose emblem will be
the shield of David, serves to call atten.
ton TO a reproach against an entire race
which is sinking to deserved oblivion
in the present great war.
For centuries the cry Of the anti
Semitic has been The Jew will fatten
off the country in which he lives, but
he will not fight for her. In fact, he
will give aid and comfort TO the enemy
II he can profit financially thereby
This attitude has led TO pogroms in
Russia and exile and persecution In
other lands.
Today's conflict shows and has
shown concluslvely for three years thai
the Jew is a patriot in the truest sense
Of the word. In France, England ant
Russia he is shedding his blood and his
treasure. In Germany and Austria his
services have been so conspicuous thai
at the present hour there is before tn,

right which has been denied them for ,
hundred years.
In America, where the Jew Is denie,
none OF the rights OF citizens, he is do
ing even more than his proportional,
share. The list OF officer.candidate
al the various training camps show,
how he Is answering the call Of hi
country. Figures from one OF tn
eastern camps near New York city re
veal that one.tenth OF the applicant
are OF Jewish persuasion. while tn
Jewish population is about one.fii
teenth OF the whole in this country.
The works that the Jews OF thl
country have done for war relief an
kindred charities need not be mer
toned. They are large enough an
non.sectarian enough to speak 70
themselves. Some Jews expect that tn
Kingdom OF Palestine will be create
for them. after the war. Whether II
or not, the race will have scored
great victory In showing the falslty q
the reproach that the Jew is not n ~
triot. The slander has been washe
out In hts blood and the blood OF hi
enemies.
