| iAOS OoHOiuuc w SOdT, Cnc govern
ment will be compelled to take a
hand in the matter and set prices
on everything. No doubt there is
valid reason for the increased cost
of living, but as many commodi-
ty goes thru several hands, which
are speculative, before it reaches
the ultimate consumer, and each
of these hands, being sticky,
places its little war profit on the
article, there is no wonder that ev
|erything is as high as it is and
will be. A recent report In the as
sociated press says that in Chicago
there are between 80 to sc million
OF eggs on the tracks held for
higher prices by spectators, and
similar instances of holdup me-
thods are reported on other com
modities. 1t is case of taking
advantage of the war situation to
bleed the public by spectators,
and the government, which repre-
sents the people, should do some
thing to relieve the condition.
The funeral of Mrs. William
PAUL, nee Harriette Obr, was held
from the Presbyterian church
west of town Monday, and inter
ment made in the cemetery adjoin-
ing the church, the services being
performed by Rev. Filipi. Mrs.
PAUL died at her home near Puk-
wana last Thursday after child
birth. She was born in Bohemia
II years ago. She came to this
country with her parents 25 years
ago she married VIM. PAUL. She
is survived by her husband, a
daughter 3 years of age and infant
son one week of age. She also
leaves to mourn her loss, her mo
ther, Mrs. Jos. Dostal of Avon:
one sister, Mrs. F. M. Dvoracek
and two brothers, Joseph and
Frank.
We don't hear much un- -Ameri-
can and in some cases traitorous
talk by pro-German sympathizers
since number Of them have been
fined and put into prison. The
reason for that was the continuous
eulogy of German efficiency and
cultural advancement in the Fat
herland and in this country. In
other words we have molIycoddled
the German element to such de-
gree that they got the swell head
and had the mistaken idea they
were more than others and said SO
in unmistakabla terms. However,
when strictly German methods
were applied in whipping them
into line and loyalty to this coun-
try which gave them better things
than" "Vaterland", we are glad to
say that they are realizing their
foolishness and that they are no
better than millions of other Ame-
rican citizens.
A large crowd of people from
Taber and vicinity, including the
Editor of this popular sheet, took
in Patriots Day ut Yankton last
Sunday and while we reached
Yankton a little too late to hear
the entire program, we heard the
speeches Lieutenant Governor Nc
Masters, and Prof. Harmon and
Hans Demuth who told some of
his German countrymen what's
what, and implOring them tn-be 10
val to this country that gave them
land, clothing, food, etc. in abun
dance. Such words Of exhorta-
tion coming from one of German
birth decidedly had more weight
than from anyone else. The Ger
man element in this country needs
more men like Hans Demuth.

army officers. No explanation was given
and Secretary Baker declined to COM
ment, This eastern department, even as
it will be after the new organization goes
into effect. is regarded as the most I'M
portant of the six because of its great
economic development. AS general rule
that department falls to the command of
the senior major general of the army
available for such duty.
Indications tonight were that the ad-
ministration planned to await action by
Congress before further warlike prepara-
lions are ordered. President Wilson has
authority to direct that the regular ar
NV be brought up to full war strength
at once and also call out the remainder
of the national guard and the naval NIL

police court Saturday. Five barrels of
liquor, seized on his premises by dc2-

acquitted after a similar seizure had
been made on his premises by the
same officers.
