Il find that magistrates of Newber-

to have them checked with the books
of the county auditor and the county
treasurer by committee of the grano
jury.
"While taking account of those
funds in which the county is 1mme-

Freedom and Free Speech


 May the triumphant issue of this war establish every nation On earth, especially every British nation, as land.
 'Where girt by friend or foe A man may speak the thing he will"
 It is regrettable, but inevitable, that certain forms of freedom should be temporarily reduced to a state of suspended animation in the fury of a struggle to preserve the substance of freedom.
 Freedom in form and freedom in substance would soon disappear from Canada as freedom has disappeared from Belgium if the defence of free- dom were left to Socialists who mere ly chatter on behalf of principles that other men guard with their lives. So- cialists are now shouting for liberty to agitate against and to denounce conscription in public. These Social fists and everybody else would soon have to either shout "Hoch der Kais- err or be shot if all abled-bodfed Ca- nadians were like the Socialists and stayed round Toronto talking for liberty of speech instead of going overseas to fight for liberty of speech and every other liberty.

MAKING THE WORLD FREE.

Brazil and Greece now aligned against Germany must add another weight to the other side of the bal- ance. Germany cannot stand up long against such strength. Greece will send her well trained armies against the Teutonic powers. Brazil will place, at the disposal of the United States her fleet for the protection of the Atlantic Aseaboard. If necessary she can send some three hundred thousand regular soldiers with our contingent. It was mainly because Of the action of America that Brazil took this final step. When we en- tered the war in April Brazil lost no time in breaking off diplomatic re- lations with Germany. After that it maintained a decree of neutrality, but with much reluctance. Now that 1t enters the war on the side of the United States this country will be at greater liberty to wage a successful campaign against the submarines. For Brazil will place at our disposal whatever naval power she has, thus releasing American ships and Ameri- can seamen from seacoast duty and allowing them greater activity n eastern Atlantic waters. On lard Greece will prove a formidable enemy to the Central powers. Little by little the entire world is aligning it. self against the House of Hohenzol- Tern that the world may be made free for Democracy.

ANTHRACITE COMING DOWN
Hard Coal Operators Disposed to Lower Price After Conference With Government Authorities

=
 Government Authorities.
 Washington, June 29.-Both the American consumer and the govern ment are to get relief from the high cost of coal
 Beginning July the price of soft coal at all mines east of the Missis- sippi is to be reduced one to five dol- lars a ton to the consumer, with . still further cut of 50 cents to the government.
 An agreement to this effect has been reached between representatives of the coal interests and government officials following several days of con- ferences here.
 It was also agreed to defer the question of lower prices on hard coal until after July 1. Anthracite opera tors indicated willingness, however, to meet the government in the same spirit shown by soft coal men.
