ceived first prize.

stallion. He stands 1911 hands, and
is of magnificent conformation.

SWIFT RETALIATION.

That threatened mistreatment of American
prisoners by Germany will bring swift retala-
ton from the United States has been made very
clear in the answer of the state department to
Germany's note, transmitted through the Swiss
Embassy, offering to exchange Siegfried Paul
London, a Germantown naturalized American
citizen, now under sentence as spy, for Franz
Won Rintelen, imprisoned in this country in con-
nection with bomb plots.
Germany's challenge that unless America &C
cepts the request for an exchange, American war
prisoners will suffer, will be met here promptly,
according to Robert Lansing, secretary of state

Mr. Lansing, in his communication to the
German government, through the state depart
ment, however, has made it plain that the
United States does not recognize reprisals of
physical suffering, but upon plain aggravation
from Germany, might be brought to adopt such
measures.

Declaring that the governments of the allied
countries must get together with the United
States and not appear as bargainers, each seek
ing its utmost advantage, Representative John
J. Rogers, of Massachusetts, has urged Congress
to take prompt action toward the drafting of
alien slackers.
There are one million American men who have
reached the age of twenty-one in the last year,
according to the congressman, registering for
military service, and not of them of that
alien class exempted under the law.
1t has been pointed out that although four
teen months have passed since America declared
war against Germany, nothing final has been
done which makes alien sackers available for
service, either in the armies of their own coun-
tries or in the army of the United States

recently, hespredicted further development of the
submarine warfare in the direction of larger
submarines with much greater cruising radius.
This officialyis quoted as saying: Ultimately,
we shall see submarine cruisers with heavy guns
and torpedoes, protected by armor and with a
surface speed equal to any existing surface
craft" These new vessels will require attend
ant vessels as eyes for offence and defence, the
same as surface battle fleets have now, but these
attendant craft will be in the air, and not in the
water.
But it must be borne in mind that it will not
be left to Germany to do all the inventing and
building along these lines. In the construction
of the largerttypes of submarine cruisers the
progress will mot be confined by any means to
the enemy navy.
Unsuitable ,or submarine submersible mer-
chant steamships, at least for certain essentials
valuable cargoes, appear to be inevitable, not
withstanding the increased cost and the de-
creased cargo space.
Archibald Hurd, noted writer on naval affairs,
takes the view that the German operations off
the American coast were intended to try to draw
American naval vessels from European waters.
1.-THE raid was not undertaken said Mr. Hurd,
with the idea of obtaining direct military re-
suits, but mainly as a demonstration. After
nearly four years of warfare, the German mind
can be read with fair degree of accuracy. 1t
was assumed that the people of the United
States would be intimidated; that they would de-
mand impossible measures of protection, and
that, in order to satisfy public opinion, the Navy
Department would reconsider its measures for
cooperation in hunting down submarines in
European waters, even if some of the American
destroyers duty were not Immediately re-
called"
That is course of action that would suit the
German admiralty, but it is not the course that
the United States will adopt

SUBMARINE CRUISERS.

That British admiralty officials have been ex-
pecting for sometime that German submarine
commerce raiders would appear on the American
coast is apparent from expressions of the Brit
ish press. In speaking of the possibility of this
development, however, officials have usually ex-
pressed entire confidence that the American
naval forces would be able to deal adequately
with the problem and that the venture would
not grow very profitable to the Germans on the
final balance sheet.
1t has even been predicted that no single
event would be likely to so completely arouse the
spirit of determination in the American public
to win the war, as the appearance of the war at
our own doors.
The discussion of so-caled submarine cruisers
has occupied considerable space recently in the
British newspapers, owing to the prominence
given them by Admiral Marquis of Milfordhaven.

FATE OF THE WORLD.

In tribute paid to the United States army,
David Lloyd George, British Premier, recently
said: 'The superb valor and the trained skill
with which the Americans have taken their part
in the struggle and defeated the foe is most en-
couraging.
ct is most encouraging thing because there
has been great flow of those troops and we
were depending on them. If for any the
allies fail to succeed it viii be sorry world to
live in. 1t is impossible to exaggerate the inn
portance or the significance of the issues with
which we are confronted today. The fate of the
world, the destinies of men and the lives of
generations will be fashioned by the failure or
the triumph of the cause of the allies"
If the Prussians should succeed today, they
would fling back civilization into the darkness
of the past. Victory is being bought at ire
mendous price, but the total of wretched-
ness paid will not equal in value that which we
defending.
1--WE are passing through anxious days and
the crisis is not yet past but with stout hearts
we shall win through, and then woe to the
plague. In the interest of civilization, in the
interest of the human race, it must be stamped
out
Unity and resolution are two qualities we
need. Let be one people, one in aim, one in
courage, and with the resolve never to give in. -
In these words, the British Premier voices the
seriousness of the present situation For
too long this has been cloaked in fine phrases
and hidden verbiage. But at last it is being
brought home 20 each OF US that it is indeed i'm
possible to exaggerate the Importance or the
significance of this war.
The Hun is not only at the gate. He is within
the gate And unless he is beaten back, civiliza-
ton must perish from the earth.
That he will be beaten back no heart may
question. Civilization wir not die. Right will
not give way to might. Justice will not succumb
to frightfulness.
Sooner or later the hordes of barbarism will
be swept back to Berlin. In that hour of victory,
every American citizen viii rejoice and partici-
pate. And now in ,he hour of trial and suffer-
ing their part is no Jess defined, their obligation
is no less imperative.
