IRISH TO SHOW LOYALTY TO US

New York, March l5.-St. Patrick $ Day is to be an American holiday this year. The annual convention of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and its allied organizations in New York have voted to make what has always been an Irish national festival a day of patriotic American display. To- morrow the Irish of New York will march with the Stars and Stripes and with service flags to demonstrate the loyalty of the race in ArAerica. Green will be entwined with the war flags only to call attention to the part the Irish have always played in upholding American institutions. Every society taking part will be re- quired to carry a servce flag contain ing star for each member in the United States army CT navy. For the first time in the history of St. Pat rick's Day demonstrations in the me- troplis the parade will include a div ision of women marchers.

A WONDERFUL PEOPLE.

One of the great surprises of the war has been the manner in which the French people have conducted themselves, says the Memphis News Scimitar. Hitherto we have looked upon the French people as a frivolous and a mercurial quantity. Since the war began all admit that they have been doing great fighting. They have made great sacrifices and lost much in blood and treasure, but the nation is by no means exhausted. As matter of fact it is stronger than it was at the beginning of the war. Trials and tribulations seem to have devel
 oped their strength and increased

MAKING CITIES MORE REAIITIFIIL.

The famous Champs Elysees ol Paris will be rivalled in Philadelphia when the proposed civic improve ments are completed. This will take years, and probably will not be be. gun until after the war.
 .The point is, however, that at American city has ambitions to be really beautiful. By combining the possibilities of varous squares in the city alneady existing, including Cty Hall square in the center of the city; and by utilizing the parkway plans to the famous Fairmount park; and there utilizing the Museum of Art on a com manding hill--even cursory read ing of this, without definite knowled ge of the layout of the land, suggests the Parisian atmosphere.
 There is no reason why American cities should not have ambitions in this direction. Foreigners call our cities ineNpressably ugly. Granting that there may be some prejudice about this term, it still remains that they're not, as rule, beautiful.
 With places like Philadelphia start ing the thing, others will not be slow to emulate it.
 The country was never in better fi- nancial condition, says Representa- tive Rainty of Illinois. The trouble is. however, that our filthy lucre is worth less.

1 their resolution. Reliable rcprcsen- tatives of the French government in this country assert that France be- fore July 1 will be able to manufact- ure enough artillery to supply 20 American divisions, or approximately half million troops, if the United States will furnish the necessary raw materials. They have on hand al ready 15,OOO guns of every caliber, and their factories are turning out every day more than 3OO,OOO shells. This great industry has been created since the war began, because France had to arm her own soldiers as well as the soldiers of the allies. During the past three months the French peo- pie have given the allies in Europe 1.450,000 rifles, 15,0OO automatic ri- f.cs, 10000 machine guns, 8O0,OOO,- 900 cartridges and 1850 airplanes.
 When we reflect that the French have done all of this work while car- rying on one of the bloodiest wars of history, we are permitted to see the marvellous energy of this people. They are a lively people, but not a frivolous people; they are deep thinkers, and in material things they arc without superiors on the other side of the water. The manipulation of iron has always been regarded as the measure of nations civilization, and, according to figures, France leads all other countries. Francs manipu- lates iron in 2,500, ways; England comes next with a record of about 2,300 ways, and Germany comes third with 100 less. The United States does not manipulate iron in as many ways as some other countries. We do not make as many things out of iron, but we beat every nation in the world in the magnitude of our out put. We manufacture more steel rails build more locomotives, and in the larger affairs of manufacture we lead the world in amplitude. The war has cost France severaly, but she has gained the respect and admiration of the world, and she has had reveal cd to herself the latent powers of her people, and proved to them what they can do in an emergency when they try. France is by no means eith- CT pauperizad or reduced to extrem- tiles; she still is a great nation. and she will continue in this way after the war, as she was before the war.

PACKERS AND THEIR PAY.

Chicago packers are no phianthro- pists. They are working for the packers, and not for anyone else ir particular.
 We think this dosen't need proof There are lots of others in the same class
 The packers claim they are paying more for common labor than any oth- CT industries in the country and quote the statistics.
 They don't explain, however, that the statistics of the "other industries includes agriculture labor, much of which gets part of it's pay in board and keep, sometimes rent and a plat of ground added.
 The packers pay must meet Chi cago conditions. which is an entirely different hing.
 But anything goes in legal arpu- ment.

DISPOSED OF THE DOG

From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
The convention in the lobby of a
Washington hotel turned to the an
noyance of sleepless nights, when the
following story was recalled by Sena-
tor Ollie NJ. James of Kentucky:
Smith. who lived in small western
town, owned dog that could make
more music than college yell. II was
at night that he particularly shone
along that line. Jones, who lived next
door, went without sleep as long as
possible, and them rambling over to
the partition fence he told Smith that
Unless Fido were suppressed there was
going to be sound in the back yard
like the discharge of q gun.
That night when Jones returned
home Smith met him at the gate with
smile that glowed like the setting
sun.
Just a minute, MIR. JONES' inter
cepted Smith, II thought you would
be interested to know that l have dis
posed of that dog
"You don't really mean it," respond
ed Jones, visibly pleased, did YOU
Kill him?"

of Smith; 81 traded him to Mike John

American Soldiers
Rushed to the Front

r ATE dispatches indicate that
Ia General Pershing's offer of the
entire resources of the Ameri-
can army to France has been prompt
ly accepted. American troops IN
large numbers are moving to the bat
tie front and they may be already
actively engaged with the Germans.
This is as it should be. Our troops
cheered when told they would be per-
mitted to fight. They went to France
with no other object. Their hearts
are fired with patriotism in this SOL
emn hour because they realize, as all
of us do, that it is not only France
land England who are assailed, but
America and all that part of the
world which still believes in liberty
for mankind.
We do rot know the size Of the
American army in France. By this
time it is probably considerable
large enough to make itself sternly
felt in the titanic struggle which has
been waged for ten days and may
last indefinitely.
We do know, however, that our SOL
diers have been tried in battle and
have given a glorious account of
themselves. All America will thrill
with pride and gratitude if they are
permitted to play an important part
in turning the German offensive into
defeat from which the Prussian
militarists cannot recover.
The nation waits with anxiety, but
in mistaken confidence. Our troops
will so conduct themselves as to win
new plaudits from the French and
British, who have already hailed them
as worthy comrades, men who bear
themselves CALAMITY in the most try
ing situations. 1t is to be expected
that the number of casualties will be
sharply increased. We are prepared
for that and will nerve ourselves to
make these necessary sacrifices, as
sured that they will not be in vain.
