DOUGLAS REAL PATRIOT,
Mr.. DANIELS TRIBUTE
Secretary of Navy Speaks at 1lli-
nois Centennial and dwelling
of Statue of Statesman.

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, October s.
Secretary of the Navy Josephus
Daniels paid tribute to Stephen A.
Douglas at the unwilling today of a
statue of the statesman in the state
capitol grounds in. connection with
the centennial celebration of the in
auguration of Illinois first governor
and first general assembly. The Sec
rotary said, in part:
when a people are at war. par
tisanship if it be based upon love of
country broadens into patriotism. Mr..
Douglas had been partisan of
partisans. Abraham Lincoln had been
his political foe. In the moment of
the peril of the perpetuity of the
considerations, forgot everything but
the supreme fact that the united
rapublic he loved was threatened
with separation. In that hour he
made full dedication of himself and
his powers, rallied the forces of de-
tense of a united republic that should
stretch from lakes to gulf and from
ocean to ocean.
'In 1861, hurrying to Springfield
after a conference with the President.
Mr.. Douglas addressed the general
assembly and summoned the people
to united support of the perpetuity
of the nation. The climax of that
address, the shortest way to peace
is the most stupendous and unan-
imous preparation for war; is the
admonition America has needed in
this day of its participation in the
world wide struggle.
Let US forget, as this great man
forgot, everything but our country"

Can Trace History Back.

"AlI of these peoples can trace their
history back to the period when fable
and legend blend with the begin
nings of historic facts. And all, ex-
cept the Turks have inhabited. from
time immemorial, the districts in
which they are now found.
These races represent the three
great monotheistic religions. which
have also originated within the
boundaries of the Turkish empirej
About two-thirds of the entire pop
ulation are Mohammedan. but of diff
ferent sects. The Christians. also. are
divided into many sects, representing
nearly all the great divisions of the
church.
1.-The Christian races are the most
progressive part of the population;
they have been most responsive to
education and have made some prog
ress in establishing schools of their
own. The Turks are the most back
ward of all; yet under proper encour-
agement and facilities they are capa-
BILE of good progress. In competition
with Greeks. Armenians and Syrians.
however. they invariably fall behind.
"It should be noted that of forty
eight grand viziers who have risen
to prominence within the last four
centuries-those whose names would
be in history's Who's Who'-only
twelve have been Turks: all the
others were either of Greek or Ar
menian origin"

Intended for Havoc in Winter.

This gun beyond all question was
mounted here for the purpose of pound
ing Amiens into dust during the winter,
in order that France might feel the
weight of German displeasure, even
after rain, snow and mud had stopped
the general campaign.
Not only the gun proves this. The
nearby dugouts of the most substantial
type and only partially completed. to-
gether with large stocks of coal, prove
it also. Over the long barrel innumer-
able names are written, printed and
chiseled-names of the gallant Austria
lians whose tactics and valor placed the
weapon many miles within their own
lines.
Among these names is that of William
Morris Hughes. prime minister of Aus
tralia. This ny-sided man has fol-
lowed various trades. 1 stood by and
saw him with hammer and chisel cut
his name in the kaiser's big gun as
quickly and neatly as any workman
could have done it.

Der of officers and British journalists,
The Star correspondent had the pleas
ure of inspecting the great Krupp
naval piece that fired on Amiens and
later fell in the hands of the Austria
lians. When one first comes upon it
one halts amazed. Its size far sur
passes anything the imagination had
conceived. Besides, it seems so incon-
gruous in this beautiful, quiet spot in
mid-country. One thinks of it as some
grotesque monster that has wandered
out of it's own element and fallen dere-
lict in an environment it could not
master. 1t stands on the eastern slope
of a gentle rise beneath a clump of
trees.
Its astounding barrel. more than fifty
feet long and very thick at the base.
lies on the ground. having been broken
loose from the main structure either
by a premature explosion, as some
claim, or by a deliberate act of the
Germans, as others assert. However,
the barrel still points over the crest
of the hill straight at AmienS, just as
it did when it's shells were spreading
havoc in that fine city. with it's incom-
parable cathedral. If you examine the
trees on either side of the guns line
of fire you will find them blackened
with the breath of the monster.
