The Flying Dutchman

The flying Dutchman turned another trick
and again John Bulls sea supremacy has been
given jolt. A German raider not only escaped
the Gordon of British warships in the North Sea,
but also inflicted heavy losses to British and
French merchantmen. German seamanship has
again proved that it need not fear the boast OF
England that she rules the sea.
It is idle to comment at great length on the
latest exploit of the German navy. The Kaiser's
sailors have given the world so many surprises
in this war that the story of the raiders cruise
is only new chapter added to brilliant history
which the German navy has made for itself in
the last two years.
Even if ones synpathies are strongly for the
Allies, credit must be given to the daring and re-
sourcefuness of the German sailors Some of
the most daring exploits in the annals of the sea
have been made by the Teutons in the last decade.
Not only have they built the finest passenger
liners and developed great maritime trade, but
they also have proved that their men are willing
to take great risks to inflict punishment on the
enemy's commerce.
The world has always read sea stories with
great interest We are anxiously awaiting the
day when peace is declared so that full report
of the activities of the German navy may be
written.

Favor City Manager

The South Side Improvement association be-
lieves in the city manager form Of city govern
ment The members of that organization have
worked zealously for the promotion of Richmond
and many of the substantial improvements that
have been made south of Main street may be
ascribed to their work. It is natural that the or
ganization, devoted as it is to the promotion of
the city's welfare, should favor municipal ad-
ministration by trained men instead of by poll
ticians who make the race for office not out of
patriotic motives but because they either want
the job or the power it gives them. We believe
if Richmond were governed by an expert amena-
bic to the people, subject to recall the city would
save many thousands of dollars in it's administra-
ton. The day is not far distant when experts
will administer the cities. The question before
every citizen of Richmond today is that he urge
the members of the Legislature to pass bill per-
hitting cities to choose the managerial system of
government if they want it. This is one question
on which every citizen irrespective of political
affiliation, can unite. Away with political ad-
ministration. Let's have the city manager form
of administration.

Selling BY Weight

George Mckinley and other officials inter
ested in fighting the high cost of living will be
interested in watching the fate OF the bill intro
duced in the Legislature providing that produce
be sold by weight The sealer of weights and
measures for Indianapolis is sponsor for the bill,
which has the approval of the small dealers Of
that city At recent inquiry virtually all the
small dealers of Indianapolis said the high cost
of living would be checked if weight measure
replaced the present form of dry" measure.
Housewives of Richmond will not complain if an
adequate bill to cover the sale of produce is
passed by the Legislature.
