M'ADOO OVERLOOKS SELF

/" HE raw inconsistencies of the
Democratic administration at
Washington filter right through
the party fabric and characterize
every move of the Palmer McCor-
mick factionists in this State. In his
utterly indefensible edict against
political activities of railroad men,
Mr.. McAdoo, in his capacity as ad-
ministrator of the railroad systems
overlooked his own partisan activi-
ties and his recent letter cordially
endorsing the Tammany candidate
for Governor of New York.
Also, a member of Congress has
just called attention to the fact that
Secretary of War Baker has been
elected q member of the Democratic
State Committee in Ohio and to the
further fact that at least four MEM
bers of the Wilson Cabinet have
written letters commencing the
Tammany candidate for Governor
in New York
President Wilson himself has been
indulging in partisan and wholly un-
justifiable activities of a similar
Character in the writing of letters
favoring this and that candidate ON

OsteopdthS and the Army
[From the N. Y. TribuneJ

[From the N. Y. Tribune1
1t seems to us that for the medl-
cal profession to continue its quasi
boycott on the practitioners of os-
teopathy is equally i'll advised at the
present time. Especially in the war
and in the treatment of convales-
cents we are sure that osteopathy
could do wide and valuable service.
1t is precisely the sort of thing that
is needed. especially in the later
stages of recovery, and with the cry
ing need for physicians it seems an
extremely short sighted policy to re-
ject this proffered aid. Osteopathy
has a definite and not to be mis-
priced part in modern therapeutics.
And IL is an ill-timed prejudice which
now refuses its need of recogni-
ton.

his measures in Congress. when he
must have known that without the
patriotic and generous support of
Republicans in the Senate and House
the most important war bills might
have failed of passage.
The people generally are not blind
to the situation. They are shutting
their eyes to many of the political
moves. but they are not so stupid as
those responsible for these moves
appear to imagine. Winning the war
is the big job that is now engross-
ing the attention of all the people,
but they still have an eye on the
little men who are hoping to camou-
fiage their partisan performances
behind a thin screen of alleged pa
triotism.

All honor to Chairman Hays. of the
Republican National Committee. AS
compared to the winning of the war
including the activities incident to
the fourth Liberty Loan, he declares
t'everything else is chores" Repub-
licans everywhere are called upon to
constitute themselves a fighting force
in this fourth loan drive. Chairman
Hays properly resents the statement
of the Democratic National Commit
tee that the election of a Republi-
can Congress would be a source of
comfort to the Kaiser and his CO.
horts." He regards such talk as most
reprehensible, allegations of this sort
giving Germany a totally false i'm
preston of conditions in this country.
1t would seem to be about time for
the Democrats at Washington and
elsewhere to practice what they
preach.

TrollOpe as a Life SdDer

A British soldier was exhibiting

THE DOVE is DEAD

T HE KAISER is talking again
about the dove of peace"
There is no dove of peace.
The dove of peace is dead.
1t lies buried in Belgium with
Edith Cavell and the murdered Bel
GUM babies.
So it is idle for the Kaiser to talk
of the dove Of peace.
But the American eagle is still
alive; alive and soaring, and his
wings are strong and his talons are
long.
Tyrants have been his prey for
nearly $50 years, and he has not
had a square meal since 1898. He
is hungry.
1t is with the American eagle,
Kaiser Bill, that you will have to
reckon. And it is not an olive
branch, but a sprig of hemlock, that
the eagle brings.

After its distressing experience last
winter, it is not surprising that the
West Shore is showing signs of con-
cern over the existing coal situation.
If there is weakness anywhere in the
administration, prompt investigation
should develop the fact. One of the
alleged grievances is the delivery of
coal by West Shore coal dealers on
the east side of the river. while Har-
risburg dealers refuse to deliver fuel
to the folks on the West Shore. Just
little pulling together and mutual
helpfulness will do much to remedy
conditions.

DRESlDENT WILSON echoed the
! sentiments of every loyal Ameri-
can when, in his splendid Liberty
Loan speech at New York yesterday,
he said:
We are all agreed that there
can be no peace obtained by any
kind of bargain or compromise
with the governments of the Cen
trail Empires. because we have
dealt with them already and
have seen them deal with other
governments that were parties to
this struggle, at Brest- -Litovsk
vinced us that they are without
honor and do not intend justice.
They observe no covenants, accept
no principle but force and their
own interest. We cannot come to
terms" with them. They have
made it impossible. The German
people by this time must be fully
aware that we cannot accept the
word of those who forced this war
upon US. We do not think the
same thoughts or speak the same
language of agreement.
The Kaiser has said we do not
want peace because we will not stop
in our victorious march on Berlin to
discuss terms with him. He pretends
responsibility for a continuance of
the bloodshed is on our shoulders,
forgetful of the fact that he has
proved himself such a liar that we
can put no trust in him, or in any
German statesman, for that matter.
The military clique which began the
war by declaring solemnly-formu-
lated treaties to be so many scraps
of paper" in their eyes, cannot eX-
pect us, in our wisdom acquired
through the school of frightful ex-
perience, to believe that Germany
would have any more regard for
after-the-war agreements than she
did in those which she violated at
its outstart.
Because We do not believe the
German government can decently
occupy a place among, the civilized
nations of the earth, we are deter
mined to go on with this war until
it is utterly powerless to raise its
fanged head again against humanity.
And because we do believe this,
and that the expenditure of the
money to be raised by the next Lib
erty Loan will bring the Kaiser to
his knees and permanent peace i'm
measurably nearer, we mean to
pledge two dollars this campaign in
bonds for every one we invested last
time. No matter what sacrifices this
may entail; no matter how we shall
have to rake and scrape to save the
! money, we mean to buy the bonds.
That will be our answer to the
latest German peace offensive.
That will be our answer to Presi-
dent Wilson's eloquent appeal for
financial support.
