Lancaster County Has Done
Handsomely BY the "Great
American Mother" and the
Workers Are Elated.

The Red Cross drive in Lancaster
county has gone beyond all expecta-
tions, and full report from all dis
trlcts is not yet complete at head
quarters. Up to noon today, with
three districts to file their final re-
ports, the total subscriptions had
reached $1S,921. This is about 80

portionment for the county being
$4,000.

were rewarded, is shown by the. fig

the campaign.

BOUND FOR THE FRONT

Washington, May 2T.-Sinking of
the British armed merchant cruiser
Moldavia, with a probable loss of Sc
American soldiers, was announced
in cablegram from the British ad-
miralty to the war department. No
details were given. but the under
standing is that the ship was NOV

The war department authorizes
this statement:
Information has been received
-otrOm LONDON that the British arm
ed merchant cruiser Moldavia has
be6fp psunk and Sc OF the American n
soldiers aboard are missing.
"The announcement was made by
the British admiralty"
At late hour the department had
no further information to indicate
twhat American units were on board
sthe vessel. Many men are in train,
ing In England and it is possible
that the Moldayia was carrying a
contingent bound for the front.
The Moldavia was OF $500 tons
gross and owned by the Peninsular

1909 and was $50 feet long.

that some OF the ladders were de-

time after being struck and at first
IT was hoped that her water-tight
compartments would enable her to

GREAT OFFENSIVE
HAS BEEN RESUME.3

Germany's great offensive on
the western front has been re-
sumed. With only brief artillery
preparation, two blows have been
struck by the Teuton armies
which have been reorganized

hicted on them by the French and
British during the Picardy and
Flanders battles 'In March and
April. One attack was on the line
from Voormaylee to Locre south
west of Ypres; the other on the
35 mile front from Pinon. north
OF scissors, TO Rheims. This is
known as the AiSpe sector.
In Flanders th@Germans have
gained virtually nothing, but
farther south the Berlin official
statement claims the German
crown princes troops have. car
ried the whole ridge of the Che
min des Danes and now are fight
on the Aisne river.
The German attack sin, FLANDERS

French May 20, when y they re-
cap'ured BruiQpse al Locre and
strengthened their lines on each

THE ANARCHISTS

N E ALEXANDER Berkman and Emma Goldman were being punished in the United States because they an a1chsts the anarchists in Russia might have grievance They being punished for such but because they actively opposed the operation of the draft law deemed sary for the self preservation of the United States
 these circumstances the Russian government has sound basis upon which to formulate demand for their lease or exportaton to Russia.
 Russia is in the hands of the most radical group of political thinkers the world The Russian government is controlled by statesmen who do not believe in These not been able escape the fundamental cond tons of government which is the necessity that it shall be obeyed it must sufficient amount of force to compel obedience, if it is not obeyed.
 Stability and order necessary under socialist capitalist government If the government of Russia controlled by anarchists they would have to force establish order else they could not exist government
 In this country anarchist has right to express his pho sophy, socialist has and prohibonist has. But them have any right to break the laws that made by the on right of maryrdom will always exist and the pSssi bty of revolution martyr whose wins will be historically criminal and whose revolution does not succeed will be- historically, merely rebel

TROTZKY's SHORT VISION

" R0TZKY, FOREIGN minister for the Bolshevlkl, finds President Wilson's peace propaganda impeccable Judg ed by the tenets of Troys philosophy He admits that the president lays down practical program But he says that when the time apply the program Germany refused to do and he declares that Mr. Wilson will not do
 The statement about Germany correct but the statement about Wilson entirely improved and the evidence points the other way
 Trozky clearly that the United States has no land hunger He appreciates well anybody that land hunger appetite of controlling densely settled pop ulations.
 America land hunger she has direct self motive desiring conquest of territory and will naturally weight into the scale for peace without conquest
 Trozy believes that the aim of MT. Wilson is trade imperialism concept of control of the markets of the world by American industry.
 This the concept during the period when MT. Hanna yped American political ideals But not the concept at the present The United States desires trade brotherhood and not imperialism The state that the ideal of Hanna state would manage great army and navy for the pose of forcing American goods unwilling purchasers presents ideal that is gone
 The has of necessity brought into being sort of United States the world in which the Allies share mon trade, pocketbook and a common peril.
 Trozy will fall short of staesmanshp of the highest type
 just the degree that he retains the suspicious engendered in the those who fight the fight of the under dog The life consprator is full of hidden pers Suspicion is pres mind and the form of habit of thinking that tends nsncery and betrayal where actually good willard confidence Trozky does not understand the big ness the American people, the size of the American president

COLORADO AND EQUAL SUFFRAGE

c ONEB0DY SUGGESTED that Colorado was tired of woman O suffrage Somebody else asked the judges of the Col orado Supreme Court and those gentlemen promptly sent telegram which received the Senate of the United States affirming the confidence of Colorado in votes for Col orado has had 24 years experience with equal suffrage and ought to know.
 Of course very little settled by the telegram of the judges. They merely gave their opinions Their opinions would probably be biased in favor of the existing condition
 Before state has votes for the whole body of those who hold public office to be opposed They hold office conditions they After women vote those who hold public office favor voting They where they stand under the conditions and they do wish ditions changed.
 evidence that Colorado avors equal suffrage the fact that Colorado has had it for 2l years
 There is only way of knowing when state is really dissatisfied with institution When the state changes it. state the organism through which the people express their wl The dissatisfaction of the state be expressed only change of policy The dissatisfaction of great many individuals within state is not necessarily expressive of the dissatisfaction of the state.
 form speech which accepts the dcm of few persons as representative of the will of the state
 often editor will read what other editor about something in that editors state and instead saying "editor so and dssasced says the dssatis- fled"
 Colorado satisfied with suffrage because her judges say butbecause she retains the institution

REVOKE FREEDOM OF HERMAN AND
 GOLDMAN WOMAN

New York, Feb. Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman, anarchists, lost today the liberty they have had under bond while the United States supreme court was considering their appeal from conviction for conspiracy to interfere with the operation of the selective draft law. The mandate of the highest court, affirming the con- viction, was filed in the federal coure here yesterday and Judge Mayer signed the order directing the anar- chists to surrender to United States Marshal Thomas D. Mccarthy today.
 Berkman will be taken to the fed eral prison at Atlanta, and Miss Gold man will be returned to the state pen itentiary in Jefferson City, Mo. Both were sentenced to two years and pay fines of $1G,00O eachh, and were serv- ing their terms when they were re- leased under bail bonds of $25,000 each pending the supreme courts decision on their appeal.
