the use of Irish harbors to conven-
ience Turkish and Argentine pirates
in raiding sea-going commerce.
The plot is old, but the plea of elm
creasing his Majesty's revenues" by
which it was commended is everlast-
ing. Nor will age lessen its signifi-
canoe for the citizens of that Re-
public which, amidst the tremors and
greed of European diplomacy, extirpa-
ted the traffic of Algerine corsairs
ninety years ago. British experts
cherish Lord Falkland's fame as the
sire of their most knightly cavalier,
and in their eyes it's lustre shines un-
dimmed, though his Excellency, foiled
of marine booty, enriched himself by
seizing the lands of his untried pris-
oners in Dublin Castle.
Other Retrospects.
Moving are other retrospects evoked
by the present outbreak of malign-
ity against our nation. The slanders
of the hour recall those let loose to
cloak previous deportations in days
of panic less ignoble. Then it was
the Primate of All-Ireland, Archbishop
Oliver Plunkett, who was dragged to
London and arraigned for high trea-
son. Poignant memories quicken at
every incident which accompanied his
degradation before the Lord Chief
Justice of England,
A troop OF witnesses were suborned
to swear that his Grace "endeavored
and compassed the Kings death, "
sought to levy war in Ireland and in
troduce foreign Power" and con-
spired ito take view of all the sew
eral ports and places in Ireland where
it would be convenient to land from
France" An open trial, indeed, was
not denied him; but with hasty rites
he was branded a base and false trail
tor and doomed to be hanged, drawn,
and quartered at Tyburn. That des-
perate felon, after prolonged investi-
cations by the Holy See, has lately
been declared a martyr worthy of uni
versal veneration
The fathers of the American Revo-
luton were likewise pursued in turn
by the venom of Governments. Could
they have been snatched from their
homes and hailed to London, what
fate would have befallen them?
There your noblest patriots might also
have perished amidst scenes of
shame, and their etfigies would now
bedeck British chamber of horrors.
Nor would death itself have shielded
their regulations from the Indictments
of dishonor. For the greatest of Eng
lishmen reviled even the sacred name
of Joan of Arc, the stainless Maid Of
France, to belittle fallen foe and
spice a ribald stage-play.
Only Thirty Years Ago.
1t is hardly thirty years since every

FRANCE AND BELGIUM
GET AMERICAN SUGAR

Ninety-five per cent. Of all refined
sugar sent from the United States to
the Allied nations went to France and
Belgium during the first five months
of this year.
France got 70 per cent, or nearly
33,O0O,00O pounds, and Belgium receiv-
ed nearly 100000 pounds, or % per
cent.
In each country this sugar was doled
out by a strict rationing organization.
The entire amount to the Allies in
these five months-23,791 tons, almost
half of which was shipped in Mays
only about one-half of 1 per cent of
our total annual consumption.

PUBLICITY AND CRITICISM.

Congress shall make no law =
abridging the freedom Of speech or Of
the press" so reads a clause In our
Constitution.
This Is wise provision. The citi-
zens Of a democracy should at all
times know Of and be able to criticise
the management OF their affairs. In
veStigation and criticism in the pres
emit war have been OF great benefit
in Fastening our preparation by point
ing out errors that have been made.
There Is no doubt whatever that the
great safeguards In the conduct OF the
war are almost unlimited publicity and
the right Of criticism.
We are told that constructive crit
icism is always welcome, but who Is
to decide what is constructive? Why
not criticism without the adjective?
Most citizens believe that Universal
Military Training as corrective of
our unpreparedness would have been
constructive. and yet it was not adopt
cd. Who can tell, il 1t had been ac-
copied when first proposed, what the
result would have been on this war!
If we had had more publicity upon
the production of aeroplanes. shipping
and ordnance, the suggestions OF think
ing men would unquestionably have
stimulated the rapidly with which
these articles were being produced,
and the delays that have occurred
might have been avoided.
There are things the Government
cannot make public. and these the peo-
pie do not ask to know. But in the
main full information concerning the
progress OF preparation can safely be
given to the people. 1t is the peoples
war; 1t is a war supported by the peo-
pie, financially and physically, and
suggestions by them should be sought
and considered.

FOOD CONTROL ACT AUTHORIZES
REQUISIITONIMG OF WHEAT.

To secure better understanding OF
its purpose and authority for reQuisi.
tioning wheat, the Food Administers
ton outlines the circumstances under
which such action has been taken.
Section 10 of the Food Control Act
authorizes the president to requisition
foods, fuels, and other supplies for the
Army, Navy, or any other public use
connected with the common defense,
Compensation is provided for. With
respect to foods and feeds, the presi,
dent has delegated his powers to the
u. S. Food Administrator who in turn
has authorized the Food Administra-
tors of the various states to act in his
behalf.
Altho the power to reQuisition wheat
is sweeping in it's scope, the Food Ad.
ministration of Wisconsin has pre-,
ferred to rely on the loyalty of Wis
consin wheat growers rather than use
force.
In outlining these facts, the Food AID,
ministration of Wisconsin expresses
it's desire that farmers who still have
wheat on hand place it ON the market
at once.
A seed scarcity for the next crop is a
remote contingency.

THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE.

Good Americans will indorse out
right the program Of the National Sc
curity League to prevent the election
or reelection Of any members Of Con-
gress this year who are not known to
be vigorous proponents of the war or
who can be lured to support any spe-
ciOus efforts at an incOncluSive peace.
The country needed such nOnpoliti-
cal organization as the league to lead
the fight against the milk fed office
holders and office seekers who. In
many parts Of the country are cater
ing to the hopes Of the people that
the war may be ended, even though it
is not ended right. The league can
come to Colorado, for instance. and
build fires under two or three politi-
clans who probably will seek re-elec-
tons here and, without its motives be-
ing questioned, can expose the rank
litical careers.
Just how the war will terminate
will depend mostly upon the United
States. Just what the United States
will do depends in great measure
upon Congress. If there is a strong
sentiment for premature peace in its
membership the task Of putting
through our war program until our in
stitutions are absolutely safe will be
complicated. We are pledged now to
go through with the war by force,
without stint or limit" and we must
support that pledge by electing men
to Congress who will "stay put" ON
the issue until victory is won.
For that matter, Americans should
be careful about electing anybody to
any Office now who is not clear-cut on
the war. Men of no particular force
in private life have much weight add
ed to their opinions when they are
clothed with the authority Of Office

Send Money, Not Merchandise.

The original order that the O. K.
of a regimental or higher commander
was necessary before packages might
be sent to members of the expeditions
airy forces, has been modified SO that
officers with the rank of major and
higher may approve shipments. The
approval of a company commander is
not sufficient.
The question Of the shipment of
parcels to France first came to the at
tention of the War Department when
the commanding general of the ex-
peditionary forces cabled that con-
gestion of such articles had reached
such a point that French railroads
were unable to handle the load. A
board appointed by the Secretary of
War and the Postmaster General ex-
amined 5000 sacks of parcel post mail
and found that the articles being
sent not only, in the main, were alb
solutely unnecessary, but undesirable.
The investigation showed that the
amount of such mail had reached a
total of 100000 pounds week, and
was steadily increasing.
Relatives and friends, according tc
a recent statement by the War De.
partment, will find they often can
do a greater service to soldiers by
sending them money for the purchase
of articles in France than by forward
ing the articles. Tobacco is now
being supplied as part of the Army
ratioDs, and merchandise of nearly al
kinds may now be purchased in
France through the huge general
store established by the Quartermas
ter Corps at lower prices thar
charged by retailers here.

Food on Transport.

An account Of how soldiers are fed
at sea is given in the daily newspaper
published on transport:
'Outside of providing 100000 meals
at sea, the mess officer of the ship has
very little to do. Very little.
"He is only called upon to provide,
by the regulations, $50 different
varieties of food. That's all. Ever
try to order $50 different things to
eat? Yet this is the authentic list.
''The food needed TO feed several
thousand men at sea ranges beyond
the glutton's dreams. You get the
answer in the ship down below the
water line, where 1920 loaves of
bread have been baked in one day,
and where you stumble over every
variety, from $4,000 pounds of beef to
$4,000 eggs, or compartment of

"secret Enemy"
In 1908, when the revolutionary
Turkish government was for freedom,
Germany opposed it; when 1t became
tyrannical Germany made this govern
ment it's ally. The German govern
ment harassed France not merely be-
cause it was It's ancient enemy, but
because it's success as republic made
the French people perilOus to princes.
The German government plotted to re-
store the Manchu Emperor and the
Russian Gear to their thrones.
Because the American people by It's
prosperity and power made liberty
desired by all the world the German
government has been it's secret enemy.
Thirty years ago it plotted against our
treaty rights in Samoa; it sent its
feet to worry and threaten Dewey

Monroe Doctrine in Mexico. It has in

"Bore Much"
We waited long, we bore much, and
we are now sending our sons to the

ord of thirty years shows that neither
liberty nor democratic institutions are
safe the world over while that governs
ment is powerful. We wisely prefer,
after what Belgium suffered, to fight
Germany somewhere in France" rath-
er than in New York harbOr; on the
Somme, rather than on the Hudson.
In one or the other we should have
had to fight. In 1776 we sent our sons
to fight for American liberty, and we
wen it. In 1872 we fought for the
freedom Of the sea, and we won that.
In 1851 we sent our sons to fight for
the liberty Of the slave, and we won
that. Today we send our sons out to
fight for the liberty Of humanity, and
we shah win that.

This can be accomplished only if
good care is taken of lamps, lanterns,
heaters and stoves.
The Director of Oil Conservation of

tion announces these principles of
fuel oil saving:
l. Keep all lamps and lantern globes
clean. Let the light shine OUT. Do
not confine it behind smoked and
dirty chimneys.
2. See that burners and wicks of all
oil-burning devices are clean. Clean
burners require less oil and give better
lights.
3. Don't allow lamp, lantern, heat

than is necessary. Don't light one
you can do without.
4. Don't use coal oil for cleaning
purposes.
