MR.. MEREDlTH's GOOD WORK.

Des Moines Capital: Hon, E. r.
Meredith, the leading democrat in
Iowa, who recently returned from a
tour of England and France under
the auspices of the British govern
ment, Is doing untold good in telling
the people about the war conditions.
His service is especially beneficial
because he tells what Great Britain
and France have done in their four
years Of the war. He builds up in the
minds Of the people an appreciation
Of our allies. He says he is afraid he
breaches" too much and does not
give enough minor details, but his
preaching il needed. He tells the
truth as it is. And 1t Is fortunate that
he is able to go around and do the
work which he is doing. He is burn
ing up with enthusiasm. He is not
only useful in Iowa but as an advis-
or and counselor he has been useful
at Washington. His story ought to be
committed to paper and ought to be
heard from one end Of the country
to the other.

WHEN SHALL WE LEARN?

Why should Prussian diplomacy be allowed
to beat US at every pointf We are stran1ng
every nerve to hold her legions in check but IN
other fields of effort she outmaneuvers us time
and again, IN every way We, and to lesser
extent allies also, are children in her hands.
We looked on impotently while she put Russia
out of the war, broke the empire up, appro-
priated its fleet and stole everything else she
wanted and could cart away We saw her bring
Italy near to irretrievabie ruin by propagan-
da of treason, openly carried on. We have seen
her for over three years embitterlng Mexico
against us; and we still delay in supine helpless
ness-and with astounding folly as it seems to
eminent statesmen here and in entente lands
while she brings all eastern Russia under her
control As far as the facts are known Wash
ington, and not our allies, is responsible for
this. But there is so much that might be done
to check her In Siberia and to deal her body
blows in Austria that our torpidity, our palsled
impotence, seems pitiful incredible.
Considering the distress in the dual kingdom
and the age-long, implacabe racial antagon-
isms that are now repressed by force, how easy
it would seem to create an upheaval there that
would paralyze the empire and put it out OF the
war And what simple matter it would be to
fight fire with fire, money with money, In MeXl-
co. What folly to permit handful OF malevo-
lent intriguers able to disburse few million
dollars to turn the influence of that government
against US and start conflagration upon our
borders that it might cost billion dollars to
put out. And still we delay and Washington
for inexphcable reasons opposes the desire OF
the entente that Japan shall rescue part or all
of Russia from the Hun exploiter apparently
on the theory that we should thus offend the
junta of red handed Missionaries in Prussian pay
who are handing the distressful country and
all it's resources over to the Hun.
When shall we learn, or shall we not learn
until too late, to use against our enemy the
weapons he has made SO terribly effective
against us7 We fight his gas with gas, his air
Iplane bombs with bombs. When shall we COM
bat the insidious propaganda which has en-
abled him to add year to the war and given
him all the hope of eventual triumph that he
hast

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Cedar Rapids Republican: So far
the air mail routes have not produced
the anticipated results. The man who
wants to have his letter delivered
would rather take his chance on land
for the time being. The air routes are
subject to many delays and even mis-
haps. Nor is there particular need for
SO much speed, provided the postofiice
department is kept UP to snun.
Marshalltown Times-Republican
Nobody would feel hurt over a care
full revision Of the primary law except
the fellows whose only chance for a
nomination rests on the weakness Of
the law.

World quotes an unnamed senator as
saying that Secretary Baker when
asked about General Wood .'pollyfoxed
around" and gave no real information.
What, precisely, does "pollyfox"
mean? And is 1t applicable to any
body or anything besides Baker!

AUDITORIUM.

Beginning with matinee yesterday and with a change of show on We'd nesday and Friday. the Auditorium is presenting one of the best tabloid comedy organizations in the country. This is the company headed by Ben Lowering, well known in musical com edy. In his cast are several clever principals and octet of chorus beau- ties. Loring himself is one of the fun niest comedians on the stage today, being particularly amusing in his Hey, Rube," and ''old tar' character izations. The offering for tomorrow and Thursday will be No Mans Land, a brand new musical comedy with a good story and an unusually tuneful musical score. The ten bewitching chorus GamseIs will have opportunity in numerous dancing specialties and also in the olio between the acts. An other great feature on this first pro- gram is the singing of Madeline Buck ley. a soprano with a very fine voice, which is worth the price of admission alone
 Tome Mix's new picture, Western Blood, is well named. The crowds at the Auditorium theatre thoroughly enjoyed the play yesterday. The play will be continued at the Auditorium theatre today and tomorrow. 5

BREED THEATRE.

In Loaded Dice, it is believed Frank Keenan, the Pathe star, has one of the strongest stories of his photoplay ca reer. The story is that of man who believes there is no God. Unscrupu- lous, forceful, dominating, he at last realizes his ambitions and becomes the governor of his state. And then, at the height of his power, the hand of God shows itself. The picture DOT trays character and belief Cor lack of iD that is not uncommon in public life. And there is a moral there that Is obvious. Loaded Dice is the feature attraction at the Breed theatre today and tonight Other pictures on the bill include the 18th chapter of The Eagles Eye and the Hearst -Pathe news.
