In our judgment we cannot dis
charge our duty to humanity nor
satisfy the concience Of American
freedom and democracy until we
have rendered such service as
will bring this awful carnage to a
conclusion that shall deliver all of
the nations Of the world from the
hand of tyranny and oppression,
be they large or small, rich or
poor. Such was the spirit of '76
and if we do not measure up to
the standards planted by our re-
volutionary fathers we are. not
worthy OF the name of a free
democracy.
1t is not a thirst for blood nor
a desire to crush the German
people. but to overthrow that
Prussian miitarism which has
dominated them 80 long and
which drove many of them to
America for their freedom and
Independence. 1t is this same
monster that is still pursuing
them in the land of their adop.
ton and it seems incredible tC
believe that there are Germans
who have enjoyed this freedom
and protection in their accumu,
lation of wealth and the pursuit
of happiness that would father
the thought for one instant o.
, returning to it. Much les!
should American born citizen:
assume an indifference bordering
upon disloyalty.

In discussing the war one fire..
quently hears expressions like
this II am ready to fight for
my country over here but / don't
think it is right to send our armies
to Europe. That, it seems to US
is idle talk based upon a miscon-
ception Of the reasons for this
war.
It is on the same principle of
the man who will take all manner
Of insult on the public street but
prefers to do his fighting in his
own back yard. In other words
he would allow his neighbor to
tell him he could not use the pub
lie strses to come and go as he
pleased but would dare him to
come over into his back yard to
settle the matter.
Germany has told the United
States government that the I'm.
perial government has establish
ed a certain war zone into which
no vessels of the neutral!nations
should come without being SUBJ
ject to same treatment as the
vessels of beligerant nations.
This was in violation Of neu-
tral rights as well as being con-
trary to all international agree
ments and it meant not only that
American commerce would be
blocked and completely destroyed
but that our citizens would be de-
MED the freedom of the high
seas.
This government has never de-
MED Germany the right of search
and seizure. but it has denied her
the right in the name of humani-
ty and International law to sink
vessels without warning unless
they are known to be war vessels
and armed. In all former wars
vessels carrying contraband of
war were seized and sold as
prizes and the crew of the vessel
capturing it received a reward.
Germany has ruthlessly ignor-
ed the demands of this govern.
ment in this respect and has open.
ly violated her promise that the
rights of neutrals would be re-
spected.
Some blame England for first
establishing a blockade of Ger
man ports but they do not take
into account that this was not
until Germany had violated the
rules of warfare by taking the
imports of food supplies away
from the civilians and turning
them directly over to her armies
at the front. 1t was this breach
Of war ethics that brought about
the blockade for which it now de-
velopes that this country is suf-
fering as greatly as almost any
other.
All of these things are happen
ing because Germany has thrown
all the time honored principles of
warfare and all regard for hu-
manity to the winds, and yet we
find American citizens question:
ing the integrity of the govern
ment for entering the war and
also hear them attempting to pre-.
scribe the limitations of our ac-
tivities.

Garfield May Seize Fuel Being
Held by Consumers.
Administration Says Situation is I'M
provinc-WilI Stop Delivery to
Those Who Have Enough.

Washington, Nov. 5.-Householders
who have been worried over possi-
BILE coal, shortage are assured In a
statement issued by the fuel admin
istration that the situation has bright
ened materially. 1t Is declared that
II any shortage Of domestic coal de-
velopS 1t will be due to individual
ministration will take steps toward the
redistribution Of the available supply.
Ten per cent more anthracite coal
will be produced this year than in
1916. The demand, however, is great
er. Figures made public show that
during the first eight months Of this
year the excess shipments over the
same period In 1916 equaled 100000
tons to New York, 100000 tons to Phil
adelphia, 100000 tons to New England,
and 10000 tons to Washington.
1T would appear. therefore," says
the fuel administrators statement.
that any shortage of domestic coal
would show boarding, a practice the
fuel administration strongly discour-
ages, as being matter difficult to deal
with, and regards such action as un-
necessary, unwisea and unpatriotic In
this emergency"
That the situation In the Northwest,
which depends on shipments from
Lake Erie ports for it's coal supply,
will be better than appeared possible
some weeks ago Is indicated by the
fact that thus far 23,34S, 100 Of the 90
100000 tons needed have already been
shipped.
The fuel administration Is conduct
ing general inquiry relative to the
storing of coal by industrial consum-
ers and various manufacturing estab-
lishments. Shipments to plants which
are boarding coal will be suspended.

scarf provided his brothers do
not drop to many stitches.
For several weeks tales have
been drifting around Of man
seen knitting industriously. In
Pullman smoking compartments,

Of the Chicago banker.
Beman knits and knits the
while he discusses oil and elec-
trio railways, in which he is in
terested, with his fellow passen-
gers In the smoking compart-
ment.
Darn it, there I've dropped
another STITCH" Beman ex-

ment on oil prices. "Well, broth
er Charley won't mind another
hole In this sweater. II I can
keep out or arguments on the
state Of the union I reckon I
ought to finish my knitting in
about nine months"
Beman also contributed the
information that Rufus Dawes
