The Tale of Barbarism.

At the Liberty Hut bond rally last
night speech was made by Wesley
| Frost, former United States consul at
| Queenstown, Ireland, which should be
heard by every American citizen by
repetition in every part Of this country.
Mr.. Frost tells the story Of the slaughter
of Americans by German submarines,
tells it i'll way to bring most wildly
before his hearers the barbarism Of the
enemy. 1t is we'll for our people in
the midst of their war-making provisions
to reflect upon the causes Of our en-
trance into the conflict. Probably few
realize the extent of the German cruel
ties OIL the sea, the violations Of human
rights and international laws. Mr..
Frost's review of the submarine sIangh-
ter cannot fail to inspire all who hear
him with firm resolve to 60 through
with this task whatever its cost.
Germany's right to sink ships as a
means of weakening her enemies on the
sea and Iessening their supplies has been
conceded. But Germany's methods of
submarine warfare have transgressed
every rule and limit of civilization. Not
content with sinking ships, she has
sought to sink them with maximum
loss of life, not merely the lives of pos
sible combatants, but the lives of women
and children. So much has happened
during the past three and a half years,
90 many barbarities have been committed
on land and sea, that we have become
dulled somewhat to these horrors. But
the record stands, record of villainy
unsurpassed in history.
It is we'll to hold these things in
mind, as indications of what Germany
is disposed to do to all who cross her
path, to all who oppose her will, to all
who impede the progress of her ad-
vance toward world dominion. We must
understand the kind of foe we have to
face il order to meet him with our full
power.

activity in four of the states eleven
House districts, and profess hope OF
carrying all of them.
The socialists were strong and asplr-
ing in Wisconsin before the European
war began. In November, 1910, they
sent Victor Berger to the House, where
he served one term. He has retained his
prominence in their councils, as was
shown by his nomination for senator.
He will direct the contests for the House
seats his party now has specially in
view, and may himself be candidate for
one of them. He is hustling and re-
sourceful politician, using both tongue
and pen.
The war has given these men some
new texts. They are now advocating
what may he called a socialism brought
up to date. They are assuring those who
listen that the world is on the eve of
many radical changes-is going to be
made over to answer new ends, and that
one of those ends Will be the material
circumscription, if not the extinction, of
indivilualism. Now is the time for the
intelligent person to get n move Onto
take a seat on the socialist bandwagon,
which is moving on. And so forth.
The two old parties should watch those
foar Wisconsin Congress districts close
ly. Strange things are happening these
times Nearly anyth ng might happen.
But nothiu. could happen which woald
have more dcpress Ms effect on cstah-
lished order than the appearance in the
next House Ct this new party with mem
bers enough to- force recognition and
compr,.aise in matters of legislation. 1t
is gclrE GO he very busy House, with
AL spIts Of business in hand, and few
guide posts. In some measure. we are
out of the beaten track, but should be
at all pains not to take any course leading
even in the direction Of socialism or any
thing expressive of its proclaimed pur
poses.

NAY Day in Austria.

Nay day, "the day" most feared by
those governments of Europe which long
have overridden the wishes Of the mass
o and curbsd their every expression of
democratic principles: has arrived. II
bids fair to be momentous. Labor every
where is to voice its wishes, its opin-
ions. Though the peoples of the en-
tentc countries may utter formal ex-
press:ons, the chief interest lies i'll the
direction of Austria Hungary, where En-
peror Charles people are discontinued,

gate the evil social and governmental
conditions which have led them far
astray from the road of international
justice and right in search of false
soda.
At heart they have no sympathy with
the gluttonous lust of the Red Kaiser
In Berlin. They decry the murderous
eutrages that have been perpetrated in
many quarters by Teutonic armies. spur
red on by Prussian ambitions toward
territorial thievery. They no longer
wish to bend beneath yoke which forces
them to shed their blood for an unscru-
pulous Molo:h. They no longer condone
heinous practices cloaked under the pre-
text that they are of divine will and
carried out by divine aid.
Like Belahazzar of old, Emperor
Charles has summoned his lords, but
thsy srs the lords of war, thoroughly
imhned with Rerlincsque ideals of ruth
less might, and they engage in an orgy
81 worship of materialistic gods. En-
peror Charles and his puppets have
pledged themselves to continue in the
road that leads to nowhere but misery
for the peoples whose wcll-being, eco
monte and moral safety they have prom
ised to protect. Like Re!shazzar, they

Headed for the Star.

THIS afternoon the District will form
ally receive the honor flag, signifying
nat its quota of the third liberty loan
1as been subscribed. By that hour the
leeal subscriptions will be well on in the
second lap, toward the double quota
point ct which the District will receive
tie star signifying 200 per cent. It is
not enough merely to subscribe the
queta. That is a minimum, and, as Sec
rotary McAdoo says, wars are not won
~ ninimums, but by maximums.
1t least 100000 persons should SUBJ
sesibe to this third loan. That will mean
. wider spreading Of the bonds than i'll
either Of the other issues. In truth,
eoeh successive bond issue should be
taken by more individuals. As the war
progresses it becomes more of a per-
eonal interest to each American. Our
spirit should rise as the months pass.
The spirit of the French and the British
Dseple has not tagged, although they
have been bearing the terrible burden
for nearly four years. We, with less to
endure, with the war held at a distance
from US, should be as stouthearted and
- determined as they

tional form required no particulars. Had
Mr.. Howard pleaded business" or dill
ness" and fxed no date for return. his
request would have been granted. 1t
would have been bad form for any Nom.
Der to ask for particulars.
But the Georgia member, having an
object in view, stated it. Being can
didate for the Senate, and deeming 1t
advisable to 60 into action early. and
deciding on thirty days as time sufficient
before the primary for stating his case
to the voters, he took the House into
his confidence.
Shall we see this copiedi Why not :
Why should not other members seeking
denomination declare themselves In this
way! There is a good advertisement in
it, as well as frankness.
IF course, there would have to DE sys-
tom. Not too many members could be
granted leave ut ono time. A quorum is
necessary to do business in the House
if quorum is demanded.
That Georgia contest for senator, by
the way, is going to be lively. Mr.. Hard
wick wants to succeed himself. He is
an experienced campaigner. Before
reaching the Senate he had served i'll
the House. His record as to the war
has been challenged. and he is expected
to defend it from tho stump.
He Will nave several competitors for
the nomination which will be equi, alcnt
to election. In Georgia the democratic
party is supreme.
Some curiosity attaches tn the admin
istratlon's course. There are predictions
both ways. As Mr. Hardwick in the
early stages Of the war did not follow
the administration, it is suggested that
the administration favor may 60 to one
Of the other aspirants. On the other
hand, it is suggested that the President
will take no part, leaving the voters Of
Georgia unhampered by any advice from
him.
The congressional ball is opening, and
presently will be in full swing. The
country will give heed. The nexs Con-
gress will face many problems, and may
be some more important than any the
present Congress is facing. Hence the
interest that will attach to what aspir.
ants for seats in that body say to the
voters, first in the primary contests, and
then in the contests for election.

More Cars and Engines Ordered.

4sAVAS SoAo oA3N SA8 AAVe ~ANSAS0'
Orders have been given by the Fed
eral Railroad Administration for 10000
box and coal cars and 1,025 locomotives.
The cars will cost between $4,000! 900
and 100 900 900 and the locomotives will
cost about $60,Ooo,O0o. This immense
expenditure for rolling stock and power
is made possible by the federal control
Of the railways. In the conditions pre-
vailing prior to the taking of the lines
by the government it would have been
impossible for the railway corporations
to finance so large an undertaking.
These cars and locomotives should be
distributed among the various lines ac-
cording to their present needs. Deliv-
cries will be made during the summer,
50 that by autumn the roads will be in a
position to carry the heavy loads which
will be put upon them, especially in the
matter of fuel transport. Much Of the
trouble last winter was caused by car
and engine shortage. It is hoped that
with these additions to the rolling stock
there will be no such troubles this win.
