AMERICANS TRAINED TO
OBSERVE HUNS CLOSELY

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES
IN FRANCE, Oct. 4. = In the
quiet sectors" where the American
troops are getting the final touches
to their training, the men are studi-
ously schooled in noting the slight
est, the most seemingly unimport-
ant activity of the enemy.
Every artillery observer, advanc-
ed sentinel and lookout must report
with exactitude and detail all hat
he sees on the other side of the
line. The reports are collected,
compared by the intelligence depart
ment of each division or unit and
transferred to maps. The daily map
is supplemented by the weekly map.
On the maps of n American
division are two clearly defined
lines showing exactly the position
of the German and the American
trenches. On the American side
of the line on the map in the morn
ing there will be pinned numerous

WITH AMERICAN AVIATORS
IN FRANCE, Oct. 4. = American
aviation in France has gone ahead
rapidly of late. Men who a few
months ago were still in civilian
life in the United States have been
trained and formed into ever-in-
creasing pursuit squadrillas to har-
ry the enemy. American bombing

The Germans certainly have not
the mastery of the air, often claim

are concerned. With the steady in

forces in France the enemy is due
for increasing defeat, if past per-
formances count for anything.

ROOSEVELT RAPS

COMPARES LEADERS OF PARTY

BlllLlENGS, MOut., OCt U.
America cannot afford to accept the
lead of any party, nor any organiza-
ton calling itself non-partisan, but
really acting as q party, which Is
not first and foremost American,
and nothing but American, declared
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt here in
an address in which he outlined
various phases of the war and it's
many sidelights.
| emphatically disbelieve in any
party, and especially if that party
calls itself a non-partisan party,
which organized a single class
against other classes. l object Just
as strongly whether such a political
organization claims to be in the in
terest of townspeople or country
people, of merchants, lawyers, farm
ers or wage
when the ~non-partisan league
first appeared l was inclined to
welcome it, and it was with real re-
luctance that l was obliged to be-
lieve that the leadership that con-
trolled it was of such a character
as to threaten this country with
evils analogous to those which came
from Bolshevism abroad and from
1. w. W.ism at home.
ssEit,oIlxr Tho rnnnfrn fhA
league at Minneapolis about "a year
ago was turned into a ghost dance
of the Huns-within-our-gates, and it
became evident to me that, insofar
as they dared, the most prominent
leaders of the league were playing
the game of sedition and ~disloyalty
and hat they were seeking to ac-
quire power by pandering to and
influencing the base spirit of greed
and envy and ignorance and class
hatred. They were trying to do
what Lenine and Trotzky have done
to Russia.
1.-THE |. W. w. leaders have been
convicted of ~disloyalty and yet it
was to the head of this organiza-
ton, w. d. Haywood, that the sec
rotary of the non-partisan league
wrote, on April 5. 1917, a letter in
which he spoke of this damned war
business.
There isn't a German abroad,
or a pro-German at home, who does
not wish success to the non-partisan
league as at present controlled and
to the l. w. W."
In connection with Germany's
proposal to enter a league of ma
tions, Mr.. Roosevelt vehemently de-
clared that until Germany has been
"beaten to her knees and just so
long as Germany is under her pres
ent government, to allow her to join
such a league would be like asking
outlaws, train robbers and gunner
to join a sheriff's posse as guardi-
m of the peace"

cedure will be followed in 1919.
Under the ordinary ruling a player
who did not receive his contract by
March / would become a free agent
and upon the resumption of big
league baseball would be in a posi-
ton to sell his services to the high
est bidder.
1t is understood, however, that
the magnates will hold that the
business of baseball was suspended
under instructions from the govern
ment and that since the right to OPP
crate was beyond their control all
contracts and other legal phases are
suspended automatically. Under
this construction the contract of the
player carries over until such time
as the government gives consent for
a renewal of the business of base
ball. Thus if the professional
leagues do not resume until 1920
the year of 1919 would be consid-
cred as nonresident insofar as it
might affect a players contract.

Harry, bark, what myriads bid you rise.

Behold their tears and hear their cries!

On liberty or death!
With luxury and pride surrounded,
The vile insatiate despots dare,
Their thirst for gold and power unbounded,
TO mete and vcnd the light and air!
TO mete and vend the light and air!
Like beasts of burden would they load us,
Like gods would they bid their slaves adore;
But man is man, and who is more?
They shall no longer lash an dgoad us.
TO arms, to arms, we brave!

March on. march on, all hearts resolved
On liberty or death!
q Liberty. can man resign thee?
Once having felt thy generous frame.
Can dungeon bolts and bars confine thee?
Or whips thy noble spirit tame?

Too long this world has wept, bewailing
The blood-stained sword our conqu'rors WELD:
But freedom is our sword and shield,
And all their arts are unavailing!
To arms. to arms, We brave!
TIL avenging sword unsheath!
March on, march on, all hearts resolved

ON CRAVE CHARGES
Wife of Wealthy New York
Socialist is Charged With
Violating Espionage Act in
Public Address,

Kansas City, Mo-, May 20.--The TAX
ing of testimony began today IN 'he
trial of Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, wlte
Of j. G. Phelps stokes, wealthy New
York socialist, on charges of violating
the espionage ac.
In his opening address, Francis r.
Wilson, United States district attor-
ney, said it would be shown that the
defendant in an address at Kansas
CITY asserted that ;he Red Cross ana
the federal food and fuel adminislra-
tions were war camouflage,' that
American soldiers were there to fight
for capital, not for democracy and
that they had been lured there by the
slogan make the world safe for
democracy
"'You cannot get the truth from
the press because it is controlled by
profiteers, the district attorney quot
ed from statements by Mrs. Stokes,
adding that she had asserted that III
conditions in the United States could
be improved by a German victory, then
I want Germany TO win
Eharges that the defendant had
stated there would be a revolution in
the United States before the return
of the army from France and that she
had referred to the Bolshevik govern
ment of Russia as the only true
democracy" also were included in the
prosecutors opening address.
Replying for the defense, Seymour
Stedman of Chicago contended that in
expressing opposition TO the govern
ment. Mrs. Stokes used the word
government" as it is used in Eng
land, not as referring to the state it,
self, but as synonymous with admins
tration. He said his client was OPP
posed only TO war profiteers and that
she based her opinion on profiteering
on statements made by the president
himself.
Mrs. Stokes is worshipper of
Woodrow Wilson and believes he holds
the highest ideals" he added. The
defense, however, will offer govern
ment statistics to show that thirty
three companies made SLIGO, 100000
in dividends in a year and that 10
out of about ESQ members of the
council of defense are members of
these companies"
Ralph E. Stout, managing editor of
the Kansas City Star, the paper 10
which a communication on which the
indictment was based, was sent, was
the first witness called today. He tes-
titled regarding the receipt of he
communication and to having turned
it over to the department of justice.
