bright swords we will take possession
Of the earth, which ought to belong
to us, because we are Germans. We
believe In the heaviest possible breed
ing of babies, that they may grow up
and be trained to carry liquid fire and
poison against any opposition to us.
And, all the same, we are the only real
peace lovers in this malign and preju-
diced world, which, except for us and
the Austrians and the Bulgarians and
the Turks, is composed exclusively of
stupid ruffians who were so jealous
and envious of US that they forced
this war upon us, hoping to make some
money out of us by annihilating us.
We love peace, and are fighting for our
mere existence-that is, the right to
adjust our frontiers so that they will
include the countries which we have
conquered by the sword. For instance,
we must never again be threatened by
an invasion through Belgium. We
prepared for this war as no country
ever before prepared-not even in 1870,
when we made war on France-and we
were forced to begin it because we
had to begin it before somebody else
did"

PRESS WINS
OVER POSTAL TELEGRAPH

New York, July 1.-THE appellate
division of the supreme court has at
firmed the jdgment of the lower court
which sustained the contentious OF
the Associated Press in the suit
brought against il by the Postal Tele-
graph and Gable Company. The Tel
egraph company ref sed to allow the
Associated Press certain reductions
granted 10 others in leased wire
yates, on the ground that such reduc-
tons did not apply in the case OF an
existing contract The court holds
that the rates generally announced
we're applicable to all users under
similar conditions and that the at
tempt to collect from the Associated
Press a higher rate constituted an
unjust discrimination and was in yio-
lation OF the interstate commerce act
The court affirmed the jud2mear
which allowed only the reduced rates

ion of the representative is evidently
shared by the astute committee ap-
pointed by the Chamber of Com
merce as their proposals, if met, in
dicate that action will follow.
Messrs. Winchester, Gotten and Wise
are undoubtedly deemed by their fell
low members of the commercial body
fully capable of representing the citi-
zenship and their recommended plan
Of action will probably have the full
cooperation of the business men and
property owners Of these committees.
Hotel facilities frequently come up
for discussiaa in Morgan City and
Berwick, and with no reflections on
the excellent proprietors of such
places now open here, it seems the
general opinion is that these com
munities may confidently look for
ward to large patronage for the
present hotels and also for such a
splendid new hotel as has been talked
Of One of the greatest factors which
tends to interest the public in an-
other fine hotel for this section is the
completion Of the through model
highway which will connect New Or
leans, Morgan City, Berwick and
points west with Lake Charles, Hous-
ton and other cities along the famous
Old Spanish Trail, which extends to
California. 1t has been carefully
estimated by Mr.. Walter Parker of
the New Orleans Association of Com
merce that not less than 100000 au
tomobiles of tourists will come into
the Crescent City from Northern and
Eastern states during each year. Of
this number, it is believed that ten
per cent, or not less than 10000, will
travel west over the Old Spanish
Trail. This route will bring them
through St. Mary parish, and as Nor
gan City and Berwick are just an
average days run from New Orleans
it will probably mean that the great
er part Of the 10000 automobiles will
over night here This bust
ness alone, it is believed, will furnish
a great patronage for such hotel as
