Crush Prussianisrn,"
Plea of DR.. Manning
At Memorial Service

In an Impressive memorial to the
dead of the Lusitania yesterday after
noon at Trinity Church. the Rev. DR..
William 7. Manning appealed to Amer
leans to consecrate themselves anew to
the task of destroying Prussianism.
The service was marked by warlike
austerity. Battle flags of Great Britain
and the United States were borne in
the professional on either side of the
Episcopal Cross. Sailors and soldiers
marched to the chance} with the choir.
The lesson was read by the Rev. DR..
Howard Dufield, Of the First Presby-
terian Church, who wore the uniform
Of the 9th Coast Artillery. "The Star
spangled Banner" was sung by the
surpliced choir, with officers and men
in the congregation standing at atten-
ton.
I'm remembering our sacred dead on
this seventh of May" said Dr. Man
ming in his sermon, ait is our duty to
pledge our lives and fortunes to the
destruction Of their murderer. Until
that work is done there can be nc peace
nor rest for any one of us. There
shall be no compromise until the
monster of Prussianism is dead. And
afterward we shall never forget.
1--WE have among US, unhappily, men
who call themselves pacifists For such
we have neither sympathy. respect nor
understanding. The man who does not
hate evil is no true lover of good. The
man who will not take a gun and fight
against wrong can have no true con-
ception of right"
The service was closed with Chopin's
funeral march

Especial Dispatch to The Tribune)
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 7-"The
Kansas City Star" will print tomorrow
an editorial article by Theodore Roose-
velt under the title, "Sedition, Free
Press and Personal Rule" which reads
&c follows:
"The legislation now being enacted
by Congress should deal drastically
with sedition. 1t should also guarantee
the right of the press and people to
speak the truth freely of ali their pub
llc servants, including the President,
and to criticise them in the severest
terms of truth whenever they come
short in their public duty. Finally,
Congress should grant the Executive
the amplest powers to act as an ex-
ecutfve, and should hold him to stern
accountability for failure so to act:
hut it should itself do the actual law
making and should clearly define the
lines and limits of action, and should
retain and use the fullest powers of
investigation into and supervision over
such action.
"Sedition is form of treason. 1t
is an offence against the country, not
against the President. At this time to
pPUOoe CHe uraIC or sendlng our armies
to Europe, to uphold Germany, to at
tack our allies, to oppose raising the
money necessary to carry on the war
are at least forms of sedition, while to

trigue in the corrupt service. of Ger
many, to tamper with our war manu-
facturers and to encourage our soldiers
to desert, to fail in their duty and all
similar actions are forms of undoubt-
edly illegal sedition. For some of these
offences death should be summarily in
Hlcted. For all the punishment should
be severe. The Administration has
been gravely remiss in dealing with
such acts.

the Administration and, moreover,
Congress should closely scrutinize the
way the pos tmaster general and attor-
ney general have alreday exercised
discrimination between the papers they
prosecuted and the paper they failed

power. 1t should say how large an

1t is not necessary to use a painful
process to remove hairy growths, for with
little delatone handy you can keep the
skin entirely free from these beauty de-
stroyers. To remove hair, make a stiff
paste with a little powdered delatone
and water. Spread this on the hairy sur
face and in about two minutes rub off,
wash the skin, and the hairs are gone.
To guard against disappointment, be
careful to get real delatone.-Adv.

There is an old saying in baseball
hat the club in the lead Of a league
July 4 will be in the lead at the end OF
the season.
The rule is rather distorted but II
remains baseball history that the club
in the lead by the middle Of July is
usually the club which collects at the
wire.
on Juy 4 the Cleveland club won two
rames from st. Louis while Boston
and New York we're breaking even and
moved into first place
With the Cleveland club there are
more reasons than the old time-hOn-
ored belief about the Fourth that the
club will he out in front in October
md that Ohio will see it's first world
series.
For many weeks have heard ball
ployers on several OF the American
League clubs predict that the club
which could beat out the Tanks would
win the pennAht. Clark Griffith said
it and said he would have the club to
do IT, Members Of the Red SOX said
the same thing, adding that the Boston
outfit would be the one which could
beat the Yanks.
One OF the smartest players Of the
White SoX sized up the YankS as the
most dangerous club in the league.
Right now II looks like a nip and
tuck race to the wire between the In
dians and the Yanks. providing, Of
