AMERICAN HARDWARE
 STORES
!, s, SOLDIERS
 FIGHTING HARD

London, Aug. 10.-Colonel Roose- velt's advice of mot to hit soft'' is hardly needed by the American troops between Soissons and Rheims, says Reuters correspondent on the Amerl- can front. There has been no soft hitting on the part of the Americans thus far nor any inclination in that direction.
 "The Germans asked for a rough war and, by heaven, we are here to see that they get it. is the remark of one American soldier reported by the correspondent, who says that the Ger mans who fought in the Marne salient doubtless realize that fact.
 eff however, the correspondent continues, German officers instead of telling their men lies about American barbarians' would refrain from acts which produce a white heat of Amer ican hostility, it would be more to their advantage. The vast bulk of American soldiers are home men. Gentle and kindly things, recalling their own homes in the west, appeal to them as nothing else does, and the awful ruin of the French homes past which they have been marching mile upon mile and hour after hour has seemed more distressing to many of them than their own losses.
 "They accept the ruin as inevitable, however, giving the Germans the ben eft of the doubt, but when in clearing up these ruins they come upon indis- putabIe evidence of Teutonic savage ly it has a very different effect An American showed me a doll house which had been stamped flat under German boot with the dolls laid around it., each with it's face ground into the floor by a nailed German heel.
 "There were much more horrible things in the house-things beyond description-but the American rightly picked that out as most characteris- tic and most dastardly. With look on his face that would have warned any opponent to keep his distance, the American said:
 ''The next damned German that tries to murder me had better make sure that he makes no mistake about it''

LEARNEDGERMANS
 SUPPORT HERESY OF FWORL DCONTROL

London, Aug 10.-Replying to the arguments of pacifists, Arthur J. Bal four British Foreign Secretary, said in the House of oCmmons this after noon that the true obstacle to peace was that educated Germans unitedly upheld the grossly immoral heresy that a policy of universal domination was the true policy of any nation wishing to be great.
 This heresy originated from the fla ci1e war successes of Germany, and the way to eradicate it was to show Germany that war did not always lead to successes he said. Germany vis- ibly practiced these abominable doc trines MT. Balfour declared, and no German statesman had ever unambig- uously declared his intention of re- storing Belgium and making repara- ton to Belgium, which even the most extreme pacifist in the House of Com mons was determined should be done.
 MT. BaIfour said that the carrying out Of German theories was even more strikingly exemplified on her Eastern frontier, where she was steadily and
 
 way to bring the peoples there under her economic and military domination Germany went to Finland as a "libera- tor" Next to being enslaved by Ger many, there was no worse fate than being Liberated by Germany, said MT. Balfour. Finland, he said was now in the grip of the Germans, who in sisted on dictating what kind of Gov ernment Finland should have, and had stripped her of copper and other ma terials, had established garrisons, and had attempted to use her against Rus sia and the Allies.
 John Mackinnon Robertson. M. P. from Tyneside. who described himself as a lifelong pacifist, emphasized that peace was impossible until the Allies were able to compel Germany to dis arm, after which universal disarma- ment must follow. A peace by nego- tiation, such as that advocated by the Marquis of Lansdowne, would enable Germany to continue her military es- tablishment, compelling all other na- tions to maintain conscription, he as serted.

TFH SMITHS
 IN POLITICS
Glance at Their Record and Present Status as
 Officeholders.

The fact that the numerous Smltn family has lacked political solidarity has been demonstrated by the few or fees it's members have held in the his tory of the country. There have been many Smiths in the army and they have upheld the honor of the name But we never had a President named Smith. Only four Smiths in the his tory of the United States have been ln the Cabinet-Robert, Caleb, Hoke ana Charles Emory There has never been a Smith on the United States Supreme Court. One Smith, from Iowa, IS United States Circuit Judge, and three Smiths are United States District Judges, two of them in Texas. But there is no Smith among the United States District Attorneys and only one United States Marshal Smith, who re- sides at Parkersburg, W. Va. There is not single Smith among the Gov ernors. There are only three in the House of Representatives.
 But there appears to have been combination working to pack the United States Senate with Smiths. Until the appearance of John Walter Smith to fill a Maryland vacancy in 1 March, 1908, there was only one Smith in the Sixtieth Congress, Will liam Alden Smith of Michigan. There are now five of the ninety-six United States Senators who bear that cogno- men, or more than per cent. of the entire body. They are William Alden Smith of Michigan, whose term ex- pires next March, and Ellison D. Smith of South Carolina, Hoke Smith of Georgia, John Walter Smith of Maryland, and Marcus A. Smith of | Arizona, the terms of all expiring in March, 1921. The Browns, who often outnumber the Smiths in city direc- tories have not a single Senator or Representative, unless they are will ing to claim the Wisconsin Repre- sentative who uppishly spells his name Browne.
 That there is something systematic about the new Smith government is indicated by the proposal of Alfred E. Smith by the recent New York unof- | fcial conference for Democratic can- didate for Governor. But this will be 1 balanced by the decision of William Alden Smith to retire as the pioneer Smith in the United States Senate
 The family combine should force him to reconsider-St. Louis Globe-Demo- | crat.

SHIP-BUILDING
 PLANTS IN CHILE

Washington, Aug. 1O.-Two large ship-building plants are being erected in Southern Chile. They will be ready for operation in September and the building fo wooden vessels will begin immediately. The first vessel of 5000. tons, will be launched in March 1919 according to the schedule and another vessel of the same size will leave the ways shortly afterward.
 Tn enew ship-yards are being con- structe1 at Liano. The wood to be used in ship-building is native tim ber-Chilean oak, spruce and other weeds. The =..:21 machinery 21cti;::77.ooiT5y- for the new vessels will be bought in the United States if it is possible to get it from this country; otherwise the builders will get it from Antofogasta.

STATES EXPERIMENT OF USING :
 FARM TRACTORS MOST SUCCESSFUL

easier to operate. The work they do Is quite as important in it's way, how ever, as the more formidable looking tractors and ditchers, fer it is useless to raise large crops unless steps are taken to safeguard them from rav- ages of insects and blight.
 The farmers have taken very fla vorably to these machines, and many who leased them from the state f. nalIy decided to purchase the spray CTS outright. The more extensive use of spraying machines in New York state this season means not only that there will be less food lost through pests, but that fruit and vege- tables produced will be freer from rot spots and blemishes.

BRITISH AND US,
 NAMES TOGETHER

London, Aug. 10.-Lemuel P. Padg- cit of Tennessee, Chairman of the Naval Committee of the United States House of Representatives, issued a statement yesterday, upon the com mittees return from the naval base in Ireland, praising the work of the British Navy, and adding that the see that everywhere the British and committee was especially gratified to American navies were working to- gether in the most complete harmony. There is a perfect understanding be- tween them, Mir. Padgett says, and an entire absence of friction prevails.
 Instead of two services of two countries, wo have one service" he continued. we are impressed with the firm belief that the British and Am erican navies, cooperating so cordial ly and with such marked eficency, will render complete satisfaction to our peoples if they have the opportunity" Times Want A6S 0
