Some 2,O4O war prisoners and alien
enemies are now confined in war
prison barracks at Fort Mcpherson,
Ca; Fort Oglethorpe, Ca; and Fort
Douglas, Utah. These prisoners are
employed at labor according to rank
and aptitude, officers excepted, and are
paid, clothed, and fed in accordance
with the rules international law
Official Bulletin. ".
In case of this sort we scarcely be-
lieve there should be any rank dis
tinction-every prisoner, from the
powder monkey to the highest officer,
should be compelled to perform hard
labor. sThat's what the Germans are
compelling American prisoners to do,
and why not adopt drastic retaliatory
measures. This country is altogether
too lenient with prisoners of war and
alien enemies.

There is no denying that Milwaukee
is hotbed of kaiserism, and the
sooner the ararchistic aliens in that
city are rounded up and jailed the bet
ter. Secret service agents have gath
cred in a number of the seditionists
and will probably get most of them in
the course of time, but, if reports are
true, should all the kaiserites in Mil
waukee be cast into prison the great
beer industry would be crippled to an
alarming extent. We say, however, to
hell with the beer industry so long as
we get the anarchists.

There is nothing surprising in the
fact that Bentall, the anarchist, was
found guilty Of violating the espionage
act by jury in the United States dis
trict court. To everyone who read the
proceedings in the case his guilt was
clearly apparent. Bentall will be sen
fenced tomorrow, and the maximum
penalty provided for the offense is 20
years Imprisonment and a fine of
$4,000. The scoundrel should be Civ
en- the limit.

A fellow named Prayer, an enemy
alien, excited the ire of the citizens of
Collinsville, ILL.,, and they proceeded to
introduce him to hempen rope, which
he was compelled to stretch. While
mob law should not be encouraged or
tolerated, there are times when men,
worked up to a pitch of frenzy by such
seditionists as Prayer, should not be
judged too harshly, as love of country
and patriotism impels them to remove
such scoundrels from the face of the
earth.

STAND FIRM, SAYS HAIG.

Gallant Sir Douglas Haig, comman-
der Of the British forces in France,
issued an address to his army last Fri
day that must appeal to all red-blood-
ed Americans. Here it is:
"Three weeks ago the enemy began
his terrific attacks against US on a
fifty-mile front. His objects are to
separate us from the French, to take
the channel ports, and to destroy the
British army.
"In spite of throwing already LOG
divisions into the battle, and enduring
the most reckless sacrifice of human
life, he has yet made little progress

The day Of the pacifst seems to have
virtually petered out the raspy voices
Of the old pietists on the street corners
deploring the condition of the country
and submitting peace petitions for sig
nature are no longer in evidence.
While pacifist cranks still infest the
country they dare not disseminate
their peace propaganda for fear some
patriot may make q drive at them with
his fist.

SOUND AND SENSIBLE VIEWS.

Here are views enunciated by that
advanced thinker and noted economist,
Samuel Untermeyer of New York, in
a speech recently delivered at Column
bus, Ohio, which those who have been
captivated by the false doctrines of A.
c. Townley and his gang of exploiters
would do well to read and ponder over:
There are just three ways in which to
raise the money needed by the govern
ment in this war. By taxation, by bond
issues, and by the confscation of
private property. We are now raising
fully rs per cent of the annual needs
Of the government through the income
tax and excess profits tax laws. In my
judgment, the revenues from this
source have been greatly underesti-
mated. I believe the tax will yield at
least $4,000, 100000 and probably over
$4,000,000,0O0
Having been for twenty-six years or
more a consistent champion of the in
come tax law, and alta time when twas
regarded as reproach and a socialistic
assault on property rights to entertain
such views, | have no tender regard
for the inviolability of great incomes.
If we could in the interest of the pros
perity Of the country impose still fur
ther taxation, should be heartily in
favor of doing so. 1t is purely a
question Of governmental policy and
not of sympathy with the inviolability
Of great incomes. If the recent pro-
posal to take all incomes in excess of
100000 year were not to my mind
destructive of thevery purpose sought
to be attained, would favor such a
law, but I believe we have well-nigh
reached the border line Of safety in the
way of that form of taxation. Any
further substantial burdens in that di-
rection will serve only to provoke
evasion and destroy industry, initiative
and enterprise.
It is fact known to those among
us who have to deal with this subject
that many great fortunes have been
and are being distributed from fear
Of these impending additional burdens.
There is no effective way, and their
ought to be none, Of preventing a man

Neither the governors of New Mex
leo or Nevada will permit Willard and
Fulton to pull off their prize fights in
the states named. Governor Boyle of
Nevada informed the pugs that they
had his unqualified permission to go to
France and fight the boches. And
that's exactly what the undesirables
should be compelled to do. It is pity
that every governor in the country does
not look upon pugilism as do those Of
New Mexico and Nevada. Then the
United States would be rid of lot of
low-down leeches who bleed the public
at every opportunity. Down with
pugilism and it's twin graft, wrestling.

To the dilatory methods of congress
is attributed the neglect to suspend
the publication of all German newspa-
pers in this country and to prohibit
the teaching Of the language in educa-
tional institutions. Perhaps at the
conclusion of the war the day dreamers
down at Washington will arouse from
their lethargy and begin to realize that
the country has actually been in dead
~ conflict with the Huns.

Wisconsin's university has hall of
fame and in that hall hung side by
side with the portraits of illustrious
patriots that of Kaiser Bills agent,
La Toilette. Surreptitiously the por-
trait disappeared and in the massive
gilt frame which contained the oil
painting was substituted Liberty
loan poster. This was discovered by
the faculty, who announced that dire
punishment would be melted out to the
culprit who committed the offense
should he be discovered. However, the
best part of the story lies in the fact
that no attempt has been made to
ferret out the depredator, and the
Liberty loan poster still holds sway be-
tween the portraits Of Jerry Rusk and
Bill Villas. Both Jerry (republican)
and Bill (democrat) were patriotic
American citizens and, if it is posi-
BILE for them to look down on that
Liberty loan poster, their qualification
cannot be other than intense. With
the portrait of Kaiserite La Toilette
in the art gallery it savored in that
particular mores Of hall Of shame
than hall of fame, and the student
who cut the canvas from it's frame
should be decorated with a gold medal
incrusted in diamonds.

Switzerland has no excuse, whatso-
ever, for feeding a horde of Germans
on the supplies which the United
States is furnishing her and for
which the American people are paying
by the purchase of Liberty bonds.
Why not erase the name of the measly
little country from our charity list.

A certain former state senator is
opposed to the building Of any new
roads while the war is on. Road i'm
provement is war necessity. Better
roads mean bigger loads of farmers
products and fewer trips in getting
those products to market.

According to the Springfield Free
Press the kaiserites of New Ulm-fol-

others of like ilk-have been defeated
by the loyalists in battle in which
poison gas was used by the enemy.

State Auditor Preus has concluded
that there are so many patriots in the
Fifth congressional district who ''deem
it their patriotic duty" to file against
Congressman Lundeen that it is his
duty to keep out of the race. The re-
grettable feature is that Mr.. Preus is
the only one in the bunch who could
defeat Lundeen. - s

A movement has been started in the
southern part Of the state to obtain
legislation authorizing the confsca-
ton of the property of convicted dis
loyalists. This is meritorious move.
The property of all such seditionists
should be sold and the money realized
therefrom added to the governments

An exchange says that it is impos-
sible to tell whether the Russians are
coming or going. From the fact that
the Germans have gobbled up 100000
square kilometers of Russian territory
we are inclined to the opinion that they
are going some.
