exactly as you now sell postage stamps

A NEAT SUGGESTION

| ~ NE of the neatest sugges-
VI tions as to dealing with
pro-Germans in this
country is that offered by DIR.
Davis, the American dentist
who for some years had the mo-
nopoly of attending to the Kai-
Iser's teeth. my advice" says
he, "would be to take the ring
leaders, put them on ship, and
send them to Hamburg. When
they come under the iron hand
of that power, they will become
the most loyal Americans the
world has ever SEEN"
Strange to say, that is the
sort of penalty most of the un-
regenerate Germans and their
apologists in these United
States would be very unwilling
to accept, remarks the Boston
Post. They pirate loudly of the
superior culture and efficiency
to be found in Germany-but
they do not go back to that
country, and did not when they
had plenty of opportunity be-
fore the war.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1918-05-10

Two million Americans in
Europe by the end of the year
sounds mighty good alongside
the estimates that place the
German west front strength at
two millions.

THE SPIRIT OF AMERICA

~ NE of the best known and
VI most brilliant of French
journalists is M. Joseph
Reinach, who writes for La Fl
garo, of Paris, under the pen
name of ''Polybe." After
reading a history of the Ameri-
can Civil War by a French
man, the Compte de Paris, M.
Reinach wrote the following
estimate of American charac-
ter and idealism
"Thus it is that / persuade
myself that l, too, have discov-
cred America-in the accounts
of battle half a century old; the
surface, a country of rough and
furious workers, of manufac-
turers, financiers, laborers,
farmers, politicians; within, un-
der the rough bark, a spirit
flaming with idealism and
flaming more profoundly than

ahsurdities and convenience the people

The Railways Side
The tyro in railway science will
probably instantly say that there is
not a reason In the world why this
has not been done always But there
public convenience. Passenger rates
vary on different lines. from two
cents a mile TO three cents. Auditing
COSTS would be increased under the
universal er-changeable ticket re-
gimon.
Radical revision of rates. therefore,
would be demanded, to make the uni
vcrsal ticket usable.
But would not the results be COM
mensurate with the added trouble?
A central auditing office for all roads
or division central offices-wouli
care for that phase.
Ultimately. Universal Rates
The whole proposal Of course rests
on the idea ultimately to have ah-
solutely universal passenger rates-as
we have universal postage rates-and
that win come; Is bound 10 come.
Who in America win not welcome
that great convenience? Who ques-
ton it is to be one of the outcomes of
the wars forcing on us changed con-

that of many another people
who chiefly make sonnets or
compose melodies for the flute.
Shall / say that if this people
lpursues more eagerly than
Others, with ceaseless toll, the
quest for gold, it is less for the
Immediate pleasures which for
tune brings, and which it en-
joys in the present, than for the
power which it gives to one

When, then, history in its
revolutions brings one of those
great disturbances, or cata-
Iclysms, which reveal some of
the essential principles of hu-
lmanity, principles which flow
from the nature of things, but
which political societies have
been able to realize only at the
cost of long and terrible eff
forts-then the American spir-
it shines forth in all it's power,
as by virtue of a physical law,
and one sees this extraordi-
nary composite nation rise, as
by reflection, out of the crucible
wherein are mingled all the
races and peoples of the uni
verse, all religions and all phi
losophies, all splendors, and all
miseries. Out of the millions
of men, who, on the prairie or
in the factory, in the counting
room or at the forge, labor to
enrich themselves, she makes
soldiers and seamen; the billi-
ons which she has won in la
borous and profitable peace
she throws without counting in
to the furnace of a war in
which she covets nothing for
herself save the honor of hav-
ing broken, yesterday, the
shackles of the black sons of
Ham, or of breaking tomorrow
