INDUSTRIAL PATRIOTISM.

Among the many offers of indus trial service to the United States the offer of Charles M. Schwab in behalf of the Bethlehem steel plant is con spicuOus because of it's enormous ca pability to serve. At this plant arc employed 5000 workmen, who are capable of producing a 10000 ton ship every week in the year. It is larger than the great Krupp plant at Essen, Germany, and the greatest steel producing plant in all the world.
 This great concern, built under American law, from American re- sources, under American projections, IS in the same boat with every other American industry and every Ameri- can citizen. Its prosperity is one with the prosperity of the nation and it's people, and they are all to stand or fall together.
 This plant is ready to set aside it's profitable private business and devote its entire capacity to government work. Schwab himself. and his exec utive force, have not only offered the plant, but the brains of the plant as we'll. It is a high patriotic service that is thus offered in a spirit to be emulated by every American.-Seat- tie Post-Intelligencer.

FRIDAY, MAY II, 1917
SHOULD BE NO DICTATORSHIP.

The nation owes thanks to the cOur- ageous senators who fell upon the joker in the espionage bill-the pro- vision relating to press censorship, and providing that neither the Presi- dent, and member of his cabinet or army and navy officers should be crit icised in any manner whatsoever. But for the firm stand taken by small bunch of Senators this obnoxious bill would have become law and the press rendered useless insofar as any criticism of probable incompetency or mistakes in handling the great war is concerned. This attempt to abridge the liberty of the press, which is ex- pressly guaranteed by the federal constitution was promptly nipped in the bud, and should not be tolerated for an instant-even in time of war; for if the people ever should know the truth in regard to a national cri- sis it should be at the present time.
 Certain provisions in the bill in- vested Secretaries of the Navy and of War Daniels and Baker in the pres ent instance) with dictatorial powers far beyond those of the most arbitra " European monarch, and even au thoriZed them to prevent newspaper from making a remarks whatsoever in regard to their policies, provided, of course, such remarks were not commentators.
 We do not believe for a moment that the people of the United States approve of any attempt to interfere with the liberty of the press, nor will they consent to have the press of the nation muzzled by the Secretary of War and the Secretary of the Navy. These men nave been criticised hon. estIy and fairly by some of the fore most men of the country because of their mistakes and things would come to a pretty pass now if they could absolutely throttle public criticism in case they make further mistakes.
 The question of proper censorship was not the source of the opposition to the espionage bill. The newspapers of this country, through patriotic mo- tives, have imposed a censorship upon themselves. and today are emitting the publication of the news of the ar rivals and departure of ships, and in many instances are imposing hardship upon the citizens of the Ter ritory by SO doing. In fact they are ready to submit to any restrictions to help the best interests of the nation, but they will not submit to any gag rule in case the necessity arises where it is of vital necessity for the people to know the news.
 While Germans and alien enemies have properly been forbidden to criti- else the President or the government or any federal authorities, but such restriction should not be imposed up on citizens of this country for the req son that their officials are elected by them to serve them, and whenever their interests are allowed to suffer through inefficiency or for any other reason it is proper that they demand an accounting from their servants. ,.
 Even in Russia and Germany the government can and is daily criticised, and their honest criticisms have pro- duced highly beneficial results. The same may be true in the case of our government.
 The press of the country has been intensely loyal up to the present time, and should there be any disloya!fy
