THE DECLINE OF THE U.soAT

Coming on top of the lowest total
Of submarine sinkings since the I'M
restricted warfare began. it the gov
ernment's brief and businesslike an
nouncement that the premiums for
war insurance on American vessels
and cargoes, has been cut twenty
FIVE per cent.
Gen. SHUTS. last week, in a public
address in London, stated that the
submarine was no longer to be con-
sidered as a decisive factor, al
though the problem had not been
solved wholly.
Washington issued a warning
against viewing the news Of submar-
inc activities either too hopefully or
too pessimistically, but there seems
every reason to believe that the
menace is waning. Sinkings will
continue, and there will be fiuctua-
tions from week to week. but the
trend is toward smaller losses. The
submarine Is being slowly vanquish-
ed, not by some spectacular inven-
ton, but by scores Of devices. by high
pressure activity in building new
ships, and by doubling. trebling and
multiplying many times the enemies
of the under water pirates.

NEW Works MAYoRALTY
FIGHT.

New York is in the throes Of q
most interesting mayoralty fight.
1t is a four cornered battle be-
tween John Purroy Mitchell, the
present mayor: Judge Hylan, the
Democratic nominee; William M.
Bennett, the regular Republican
nominee; and Morris Hillquit, the
Socialist candidate.
Mayor Mitchell has made a re-
markable record during his term OF
Office. He has tackled the tremend-
Gus job of managing New York's
municipal affairs. with energy, en-
thusiasm and such efficiency that he
has actually reduced the expenses of
the city government in the face OF
rising costs in all lines. He was de-
feated at the primaries by Bennett,
but the margin of a few hundred
votes was so small. that he has con-
scented to be an independent fusion
candidate. He is running on his
record and on platform OF 100 per
cent AIuSTlCdulSHA All Iho wal
Mr.. Bennett. who defeated Mayor
Mitchell at the primaries, seems TO
be viewed as an inoffensive un-

OF william Randolph Hearst and
Tammany Hall. and Hillquit is the
Socialist.
In such a four cornered fight, any
one Of the candidates is likely to ne

ton from the volume of trade.
For 1916 the quantity OF money in

War Imitation.
The war has caused imitation In
Europe in two ways. First by caus-
ing the issue of irredeemable paper
money which is usual in war times;
and second by bringing about an
enormous increase in deposit cur
rency through war loans. Paper
money imitation has been big fac
tor in the rise OF prices in Russia and
Germany, although the two causes
mentioned are closely connected, es-
ed paper monev on the basis of war
loans.
But as important as has beer the
issue of paper money, as a cause OF
imitation, the situation in the present
war Is in large measure unique and
without any real precedent in former
wars. because of the important role
played by deposit currency, especial
ly in England and France. While
there has been in England no rupture
of the tie between paper and gold,
there has been. nevertheless, real
imitation, and this imitation has been
largely in deposits or in deposit cur
rency associated with the enormous
loans by which the war has been
four -fffths or five-sixths financed.
In the United States the imitation
has been thus far chiefly through the
import of gold from abroad. In a nut
shell. the war has drained us of goods

changes in the price level. The pres
ent war supplies such case. The
quantity of money in circulation
month by month and the monthly
index number of prices run striking
ly parallel. 1t was in August, 1915,
that the quantity of money in the
United States began its rapid in
crease. One month later prices be-
gan TO shoot upward keeping ale
most exact pace with the quantity Of
money. In February, 1916. money
suddenly stopped increasing and two
and a half months later prices stop

pondences have continued to occur
ever since. with an average lag be-
tween the money-cause and the
price effect of about one and three
quarters months.

that which the state has been get

His speech at the dinner Of the
American Bar association has been
commented on widely, and has been
the subject Of many an editorial in
eastern papers.
The New York Times commends
these words Of Justice Bruce to all
Americans, whether of foreign or
native birth:
l and millions Of others like
me came to this country alone
and without friends. We spong-
ed on all that America had, her
free lands, her free schools, and,
above all, her spirit of OPEN
hearted comradeship. She owed
US nothing, but she gave us all.
We should be ingrates, we should
be ours, If in this hour of her
need we counseled with her
enemies or were disloyal to her
cause.
But there is a deeper reason
for our loyalty. Ours is a gov
eminent of law and not OF
despots, and our flag is not
merely the flag Of a nation, but
of the nation of nations. We
should be loyal because the Ger
man doctrine of divine right and
might is opposed to all that we
have inherited and all that our
flag stands for.

An Editorial That May or May Not
Square With The Forums
Opinions.

The Chicago Tribune: Senator La
Toilette is much hurt in his tender
feelings because the newspapers
misrepresent him. Do they, though?
An angry recipient OF his pamphlet,
WAR with Germany" sends the
thing to us, and 1t reveals the same
La Toilette as the newspapers. 1t is
his address in the senate on Wednes-
day, April 4, 1917. He has not chang
ed since. Nor does he pretend to have
changed.
That the senator had q right to
argue against war before war was
declared, no one denies, but 1t then
became his sphere to quit arguing
against war. He has not quit. He
goes about denouncing the war from
public platforms. Not content with
that, he has had his senate address
reprinted lat his own expense, we
shall assume, unless proof arrives
that Germany foots the bilD and is

through the mails, but legally there

The Mandan Pioneer believes thu
time has come for the farmers Of tn,
state to take control of the Non
partisan league and says so as fol
lows: Il.
How long before the farmers
OF the state take into their own
hands the management of the
Nonpartisan league? How much
longer will they consent to have
as the head of the league a man
whose acts require them to make
apologies? &
There is a broad field for such
an organization of farmers as is
represented in the league, no
matter by what name you may
call IL. There are needs for bet
ter marketing facilities. better
regulations in the matter Of
grading grain, and there is a
constant need Of the farmers Of
this or any other state to be on
their guard against any legisla-
ton, any acts which will prove
inimical to the industry of agri-
culture. The foundation for suSSl
an organization is well laid in
the league, but the farmers of
the state should realize that a
leadership that keeps them con-
stantly in hot water; that by
word and act casts upon them
the suspicion of not being loyal
to their flag and country will
sooner or later wreck them on
the rocks of sedition.

imitation From War Loans. -,
From now on we shall feel the
war-ioan imitation as well. F1nanc-
ing the war by loans when the sub
scribers have no leal surplus to lend
to the government really amounts to
the same process as issuing paper
money. Both initiate the currency,
drive UP the cost OF living and place
the real burden of war on those of
relatively fixed incomes, including
wage earners.
