SAN DIEGO, Feb. 2S.-Fresh re- ports that a German steamer has piled along the west coast of Mexico and Central America for the possible pur- pose of collecting fuel and stores for German submarines or German raid CTS were received here today by fed eral authorities. The authorities also learned today that powerful wire less station, the operators of which transmit messages in the slow. me thodical manner typical of the Ger man naval radio service has been in service at a point several miles of Turtle Bay.

SAFEGUARDING THE NEW WORLD.

SAFEGUARDING THE NEW WORLD.
 There is involved in present controversy with Germany than the mere vindication of rights There involved than the moral rights of mankind which being by Prussan ruthessness There is the fate Doctrine and the destiny of the Western Hemisphere
 The Chicago Tribune, which has been guilty of undue pro-British sentiment, remarks that Uboa war fare successful in its avowed purpose might win the and destroy the British Empire
 That brings up the whole question of what the British Empire means to us What would happen to the United States in material way if British rule disappeared?
 We have been having a foretase in the developments of the last few days For the first time in century our has dared venture to seabecause the sea was no longer completely safeguarded by the British navy.
 It is literally true the Tribune remarks, that we have under the guardianship of the British fleet That fleet has been the real power back of Monroe Doctrine We might have maintained that doctrine and protected hemisphere from European aggression by building ourselves. fleet large enough to defy any other power any other two powers, as Britain has done. But have taken such action. And because Britain has, the main, used her power justly and so far concerned, benevolently, we have been content to shelter ourselves under her wing
 It natural enough perhaps, on both sides. The of Great Britain and the United States have not seemed conflict In this hemisphere. at rate, they were identical country and Canada have wanted to get along amicably Britain has not needed any more American territory has been for antag onism, every reason for cooperation
 We are still depending British power. It would taSa we hui surpass the British if that navy stood still in the meantime
 What would happen, then British navy dropped out?
 Germany would rule the sea How would she use her power? amicaby toward Britain has used hers?
 We can hardly think All recent history says Setting aside all the ruthlessness that has characterized the German navy during this and assuming that it would vanish with the occasion that produced it, how could victorious Germany deal benevoienty with North and South America?
 Such consideration of future throws def initely into camp the other We may not like Great Britain. We may not like Germany. Sentiment necessarily anything do with it. Abstract moral considerations. for the present argument needn't have anything do with it. Other things being equal which fate the American republics view with more equani mitythat their lot be cast with Great Britain or with Germany?
 It must be the other. because cannot, we are, stand against both
 The that language, literature and political n stitutions English is important but not necessarily the determining factor. South America has different Cultureand South America has spoken, all America will speak, against the she fears and in favor of the power that has given her least cause to fear.

The action of the trial court in re- fusing bail to Paul Welisch, of Doug las. convicted of violation of the pro hibition amendment, pending an ap- peal, was upheld by the supreme court in an elaborate opinion discussing the condition and extent of bailable of- lenses since the passage by the peo- pie of the state of the anti-capital punishment law. The supreme court holds that since all capital offenses have been abolished that all pers)ns charged with crime "even treason, however diabolical or murder how ever atrocious, and howsoever evidene may be the proof of guilt thereof, as we'll as all other felonies and misGe- meanors. may before conviction de mand admission to bail as T strict legal right which no judge or court can properly refuse. The court holds however, that after conviction of misdemeanor. when jail sentence has been imposed. the defendant cannot be released on bail. except under eX- traordinary circumstances to be de termined at the discretion cf the court The court holds that the !2SlS- lature may remedy this condition. but as the statutes now stand, 2 man coli victed of a misdemeanor, and punisi- ed by jail sentence cannot be re- leased from custody.
