AGER MAN WEEPS FOR EUROPE

Germany hayng failed with her appeal
TO fear Of death. she appeals 10 fear Of
poverty This is conveyed in the speech
at Stuttgart Of the German Nice-Chan-
cellor Won Payer: "All OF the belli-
gcrents of Europe must admit. if they are
not blind, that the longer the European
peoples laccratc cnch other the more
certainly will the historical and para

povcrisncd Europe bc lost IN favor of
clcvcrcr and more calculating peoples
The speakers sudden pity for the
historical and paramount position OF
Europe may have sprung from reading
about the needless destruction wrought
bv German troops in their retreats from
French territory; but who are the "clcvcror

Strcly they arc not the hlodsInnlgc

THE RUSSIAN SITUATION.

Russia must be brought to know
that true liberty puts upon itself rigid
self-restraints The real Uossessor OF
freedom is the one who makes a con-
scientlous use OF 1t. 1t is the most highly
developed forms of soclety-where we
might expect the least trammels- that
the most trammels are self-Imposed.
Consciousness of power rouses III any
rght-thinking man the desire to employ
1t sparingly 1t IS the yellow-streaked
mind that lends itself to selfish schemes
of aggression
The Bolsheviki are political parve-
nues. They have had no experience
in governing themselves or anybody
else They arc carried away with the
idea that liberty is a gift from the idea
by virtue of which they may rule their
unhappy neighbors with blood and iron
They are as crude and dangerous as a
small boy with a buzz-saw.
We can only hope that out of this
tangle of theories, this welter Of suffer
ing, peace and order will eventually arise
Surely the insnity Of the present lawless
processes cannot 60 on forever. From

PRESS COMMENT.
FIAT TO LABOR TRAITORS.

Let no one .suppose that tho men 70
whom the President has issued hin fiat
are representative labor men. The Bridge
port strikers are outlaws from their own
international union. They have re-
jccted likewise tho terms Of The award
made by the War Labor Board. In his
proclamation to the labor Iparplots, the
President Of the United States has called
upon them to 90 back to work, and hns
told them in positive terms that upon
failure to comply they will for year
be barred from all kinds of government
employ, and those of the military age
will be relieved Of their exemption and
will have to fight if they will not work.
The message Of the head of the nation
is to labor in general and its terms arc
that labor must carry on" during the
war. Mr.. Wilson says to the strikers
that they constitute less than 10 per cent
of the men affected by the decision Of
the War Labor Board, and are the best
paid Of all With stinging scorn he gives
expression to the words. Your strike
is breach of faith calculatd to reflect
upon the sincerity of national organized
labor. If such disregard of solemn
adjudication of tribunal to which both
parties submitted their claims be tempor
lied with, agreements become mere scraps
of paper" Herein they are given the
choice of being rated as of the Hohen-
zollern or the American caliber.
Citing the instance of the taking over
by the government of the Smith d Wes-
son Company, which refused the media
ton of the War Labor Board, Mr. Wilson
states omphatically that the recalcitrancy
of the labor forces will win them similar
direct treatment The President has
stated that the decision of the War
Labor Board is mandatory, and he will
see TO its execution, with all who refuses
to abide being treated in the manner
stated This is message in the defense
of the character of labor organizations,
but also in absolute warning to all labor
forces that strikes are adjourned for the
term of the war Baltimore American.

How Merit Nav Win.

one Of the surprising results Of tho
Republican primaries in New Castle
county, Saturday afternoon, was the
nomination Of Furman G. Cole for
recorder Of deeds II was n victory Of per
sonal merit over partisan machinery.
MIR Cole was opposed by one Of the
best and shrewdest of Republican poll
ticians. ex-SherifT James l,ogue. The
latter had in his support the ahlest
agencies OF not only the old Organization
Of the Republican party, but OF the New
Dispensation that now controls the direc-
ton Of the Republican party Of Delaware.
But Mr. Cole won because he had the
voters of his party behind him.
Which goes to show that the New Dis
pensation may be no more powerful than
the old Organization when it comes TO
show down" before the Republican
voters of the State.

After their long ordeal We can sense
and share the JOY the French experience
in knowing that the last Hun invader is
being pushed out of France into his own
country-nevrr to return and that France
is now and ever will be free from the
menace of barbarans.
And the British part in the war n
mighty magnificent. The English navy
has saved the world and civilization from
the Hun. But for her upconQucrsble
fleet. Gcrmany,s plans to conquer and
dominate the world would have been
nearly effective by this time. England's 3
soldiers no less than those OF France have
fought superbly.
Never in the world before have fighting
men in the field been called upon to meet
such dangers M confront those Of today.
Previous warfare wns a mere game IN
comparison with battles today with their
flaming balls, poison gases, machine gins,
air bombs and all the devilish lifc-taling
devices that can emanate from the BRAIN
of n people bred in hate and schooled IN
cruelty and viciousness.
Every people who has been called into
the war against the boche has demon
strated bravery that probably is un-
euualed in war annals. This condition of
'unafraidness" comes from the despera-
ton of the situation from the hatred every
civilized man must have for the horrible
Hun and the realization of what would be
the fate of the world were he not checked,
beaten and broken.

SUMMER PASSES.

Days are getting shorter and the sum-
mcrs slipping by,
Soon will come October when the bios
SONS fade and die;
Soon the master painter will get busy
with hn brush
And tint the orchard apples with their
most becoming blush.
Then the frost will find the meadow and
the green will disappear
And the bitter winds will whisper that
old winters very near
Oh, the days are coming closer when we'll
reap as we have aown,
When our worth shall be recorded by the
fruits that we have grown.
Soon the master painter shall inspect
what we have made
And brush our deeds of valor with the
hues that never fade.
In the glory of life's autumn we shall see
our work revealed,
And know how we have labored through
the summer in the field.
It's too late when winters coming to
attempt the work Of spring,
Too late for deeds OF valor when our
youth has taken wing;
Too late for words of kindness when the
friends of old are dead.
Age must reap as it has labored through
the summer that has He'd.
Oh, the tragedy Of autumn and OF nge,
is to behold
Life's acres bare and barren when they
ought 10 gleam with gold.

PLENTY OF WORK.

The lazy man has lots of trouble;
he can't dodge labor worth cent;
no odds how he may twist and
double, some job will track him TO
his tent. Where is the guy who
used to mutter, Il can't get work,
howe er | try; I'd like to earn my
bread and butter, but, Nothing
doing!' is the cry. He used to
come, with gall immortal, and hand
that kind of tale to YOU, you did
not shoe him from your portal, be
cause his story migat be true.
You handed him a pie or muffin,
and said. Poor man, your fate Is
dire, and watched him while he
sat there stuffin' his innards, like
a house afire. But now If some
one comes a-spieiing of lack of
work, and fakes like those, you
bump his head against the ceiling
and hood him with the garden hose,
You know at once that he is taking,
YOU laugh to scorn his plaintive yelp,
employers everywhere are breaking
their wishbones rustling round for
help. The lazy man has no excuses
with which 10 fool the kindly guy;
the stress of war has cooked his
gooses, and he must go to work or
die.
