To Regulate German Papers
people.

A further effort TO relieve the Gov
eminent from the embarrassment
caused by the reasonable publications
frequently found in some foreign
language newspapers in this country
has been made by Congressman Ed
ward w. Gray Of New Jersey. His
scheme for abating the nuisance is
contained in bill which forbids the
use OF the mails to any such periodical
unless, on the day of publication, the
editor shall deliver to his postmaster an
English translation of all matter which
it contains relating to the war and make
oath that such translation is complete
and true, and that the paper contains
no information in code. Mr.. Gray
puts teeth in his measure by providing
a fine Of $4,000 or two years. i'm
prisonment for its violation. He also
proposes to give the Postmaster
General $250,000 to enable that Off
cial to carry out the provisions Of the
bill.

QUICKSILVER THROWN
OVER BY THE GERMANS
Sensation Is Caused by Load
Brought Up by Dredges In
Harbor of Honolulu.

Honolulu Quicksilver brought up
"clam she'll dredger caused a two
day sensation recently. and for time
reports We're in circulation that a
quicksilver niue had been located.
Finally some one remembered that
previous to the declaration of war
against Germany by the United States
several German and naval vessels had
been anchored near where the quick
silver had been brought up by the
dredger Investigation revealed that
the quicksilver had been thrown over
board by the Germans when the crews
Of the ships put the machinery of the
vessels out of commission.
The German system of registering
rooms is by use of quicksilver and not
by springs, and when the German sail
orS destroyed the machinery of their
vessels large quantity of the metal
was thrown overheard. Quantities of
it ran in the bilges of the boats, and
in repairing the gunboat Geier at Pearl
Harbor more than 1000 pounds of
quicksilver was removed from the
bilge of the warship.
The German sailors smashed the
gauges of their vessels with sledges
and threw the debris overheard, to-
cether with the quicksilver that was
left in them.

FOOD WASTING TREASON"
Medical journal Says Citizen Who Does
Not Economic Is Guilty.

Not Economic Is Guilty.
Each citizen who is making the most
of his food supply, living on as little
as possible and wasting nothing, is do
ing his part to win the war" says the
Medical journal. THE citizen who
wastes the food supply ever so little is
a traitor. II makes no difference that
he himself can afford to do it. Each
such instance of waste detracts so
much from the country's resources.
Multiply one case by a hundred, a
thousand or million and you have a
real weakening of the nation.
1T would be as If prizefighter tried
to go on in a ring with little venal
bleeding somewhere in his body ex-
hausting his vitality Looked at in that
way prosecution for wasting bread
does not seem an absurdity: it is the
height of economy, indeed, but it sets
"A good example, an example which, If
followed throughout the land, will go
far toward winning the war"

Alarming Growth Revealed In
Books Seized In Raid.
VAST SUM OF MONEY SPENT.

In the Last Year, and Not Including

gust, Chicago Office Alone Handled
00o-Most of Money Spent In
Defense Purposes.
Chicago Evidence of alarming in.

w. and of vast sums spent i'm propa-
ganda work was laid before the fed
eral grand jury as result of Its
sweeping investigation of the books of
l. W. w. and Socialist branches
throughout the United States following
last weeks raids
Three startling facts which show the
power of the organization and which
were to be taken into account by the
jury in determining the danger of the
l. w. w. and means to be taken to
curb its activities are:
In three years the organization has
gained 1000 per cent in membership,
1t now has 10000 persons on its rolls
In the last year. and not including
the exceedingly active month of Au-
gust, the Chicago office alone handled
100000.
These figures were learned from a
highly authoritative source, and it is
known they will have an important
bearing on the grand jury inyestiga-
ton.
Books of the |. w. w. seized at Chi
cago are said to show exact balancing
and to account for the source Of each

sum received and the disbursement of
the entire 100000. The records show
that most of the money was spent for
defense purposes, printing literature"
and publishing newspapers.
Whether any German money is back
ing the organization and whether the
accounts as shown on the books are
correct are two subjects of investiga-
ton.
The discovery of the great strength
of the |. w. w. was said to be of ex-
treme Importance in that it will indi-
cate to the government how dangerous
a thorn ii has in its side.
That these discoveries might lead to
Imprisonment or internment of some of
the active members was suggestion
on which officials would not comment.
The revelations were said to be star
Ting to some officials who had no idea
of the power of the organization.

COUPON AND REGISTERED
LOAN BONDS---THF DIFFERENCE
Will Be Offered to the Public This
Week-0ne Should Be in Every
Household in America

Because the next government loan
will soon be offered to the public in
denominations within the reach OF the
humblest citizen, and because every
one may not know the difference be-
tween coupon bonds, the interest and
principal OF which are payable to the
holder. whoever he may be. and the
registered bond, the principal and
interest on which is only payable to
the person to whom the government
issued the bond, or to whom it may
be legally assigned in writing by the
owner, it may not be amiss to read the
following extract from a government
bulletin;
A bearer or coupon bond is payable
to the bearer, the holder, the title pass
ing by delivery. The Treasury depart
ment does not require proof Of owner
ship when such bonds are presented
for payment or exchange, the holder
thereof being recognized. Such bonds
may be bought and sold without for
mality and without Endorsements Of
any kind. Attached to bearer bonds
are sheets Of coupons or certificates OF
interest. One of these coupons be-
comes due each interest payment date
and should be detached by the owner
of the bond and cashed at his bank or
presented at Treasury office for pay
ment.
A registered bond is payable only to
its owner or his order, and can be
transferred only BY being properly in
dorsed and assigned by the owner.
The bond has inscribed on the face OF
it the name of the owner or payee, and
such fact is recorded on the books OF
the Treasury department against the
particular bond indicated. The change
in ownership of registered bond is
effected by the original payee indors-
ing and assigning the bond, using the
form on the back thereof in accordance
with the regulations Of the Treasury
department. Such assignment must
be made before an officer designated
by the Treasury department, and such
officer must certify thereto and affix
his official SEAL The officers who are
authorized to witness assignments are
indicated in note printed on the
back of the bond. Generally speaking
certain judicial and Treasury officers
and executive officers of Federal Re-
serve and National Banks are authorized
to witness ASST nments.
When the owner Of registered bond
disposes Of it and has properly assigned
it, it should be forwarded at once to
the Secretary of the Treasury for
transfer on the books Of the department.
The bond so forwarded is cancelled
and new bond in the name of the
new. owner is issued and sent to the
new owner by registered mail.
The interest on registered bonds is
paid by means Of checks drawn by the
Secretary of the Treasury on the
Treasury Of the United States, such
checks being issued on the day interest
is due. They are sent by mail to the
owners of the bonds.

TIME FOR A CHANGE

The present grand jury system which requires that one charged with felony be detained in default ot bal
 until number of his fellow citizens consider his case has been the cause of considerable criticism from time to time and recently at Fairbanks Russians were detained year for trial.
 If two Americans were locked up in Russia without trial for year movement would be started to send the fleet over and rescue them.
 These men were arrested on April IT, 1916 and, u- able to get ball. have been lying in the federal jail ever since Both wanted to plead guilty and when the time for them to do so came around they entered such pleas When they were arrested last year the grand jury had just end ed it's sitting and there nothing for them to do but stay in jai awaiting the next term of the grand jury
 Asit happens in these particular cases, no great hard ship is worked as Judge Bunne took the situation into consideration and sentenced them to only day in jail on this charge But had they been innocent and had they been forced to remain in jail for year it would indeed have been hardship
 Under the law, as is at the present time if man is arrested on felony there is way he have his case disposed of until the grand jury takes guess at it. Even if he wished to plead guilty he is not permitted to do so.

COORDINATION NEEDED

Recently Franklin K. Lane secretary of the interior writing for the National Geographic magazine concern ing the work of his department had the following to say regarding the spirit of national development:
 "An intense nationalism has been the marking note of the past year Each American has realized with keener consciousness the meaning of this land to him, and has sought for larger view of its many aspects and if pos Sble to gain glimpse of it's future To each has come his dream We know that there is more to national feel ing than pride in the possession of land that rare and valuable or the splendid memory of history of struggle for those things of spirit which men call principles The highest sense of nationality with sense of purpose "a sense of common purpose-fOr the United States IS not yet the prOudest sense and cannot be until are doing all that can be done to give to all it's people and to the world the full expression of it's highest intelligence applied alike to it's resources and to the life Of the peo- ple."
