- answer to. Germany is ex-
actly what bar country
wants and what was to be ex-
pected of our President in view
of his past declarations. His
Ia principles, set forth long
ago, gave assurance there
could be no peace with auto
cracy. His Mt v ernon speech
emphasized the point and his
address in New York recently
made it plain we would make
no terms with the kaiser.
Through the exchange of
notes just concluded we have
put the issue more squarely
than ever before up to the Ger
man people. With a victorious
enemy thundering toward
their borders they can take
their choice. They can over
throw the kaiser and make an
unconditional surrender now
or they can wait for invasion
and until surrender is required
at the pointNof the bayonet.
There is a possibility they will
put the kaiser out and if so
peace may come soon. But the
matter is uncertain and mean
while there can be no relaxa-
tion by the allies. For Amer
ica to hesitate would be to de-
lay peace and give the German
autocracy that much more

and strong financial backing

speedier victory.
With full speed ahead there
can be no question as to the
outcome and the end may be
nearer than we know.

No punishment could be too Sc
we're for such a criminal. Pri-
NAL justice would call for his
execution. But civilized ma
tions do not hang their beaten
foes. 1t is not conceivable that
the allies will ask for the kais-
er's head. But they can with
Justice make him a prisoner for

ser and all his family should be

rosbinqton.-It may not occur TO .,a average person that the aSricui- .nrol w department of the United states ,s doing Il great deal to help win the hut tba fact Is that this depart nort Is very important and Its war .s-,, is especially useful. Among the ,ro,v things which the department has .ono none is more helpful than mo- su,v,ng farm labor. Agents of the de- .or+rent went into the cities, towns and villages and procured men to work m the farms, and the belief is no" ox,rossed that enough farm labor VIII hs obtained to harvest the crops.
 1t Is not generally known that 6i ,nsnectors of the bureau Of amman ih- dns+ry experts on meats of all kinds' sro now with the United States army and soc to it that the soldiers ger nbolasomp meat. There are 3D ln- snectors engaged in similar work with inc navy Another activity of the az rcultural department is the demon sration for preserving eggs so that they can be shipped abroad and used for the army. Great success has al- tended the pig clubs" in which lV.- 900 boys and girls are now engaged m increasing the output of pork. The department has employed 5,651 exten- sion workers who are aiding the food nroduction and conservation cam psIgn It has also aided in searching out timber needed in war supplies partcularly that used In making air planes. In fact. there are many enter prises in which the agricultural de partment Is engaged. all tending to help win the war.

UNITED STATES AND SCIENCE
Activities of Entire World Centered on This Country and Interest
 Expected to Continue.

Very few people realize that the scientific activities of the world are centering in the United States, and that they will doubtless continue to do so if material means be given to keep up the work" said Father Charles B. Moulinier, regent of the Marquette university school of medicine, in re- cent interview in the Marquette Trib- une.
 south America. for instance, is now looking to us for scientific leadership. China and Japan are once more turn ing to us. Great attention is being paid to medicine In South America. Buenos Aires alone having q medical school with 5,c00 students.
 The Wistar institute of anatomy, in Philadelphia, is one of the most de eisive factors fin turning the attention of the scientific world to the United States. This institute has an endoW ment which makes it possible to give large service to mankind. Just now II is printing copious translated extracts from the medical journals published and sending them to China and Japan. Duplicates of the journals are also sent to South America.
 "A great deal of research work iS being done by this school fin the direc= ton of discovering dyes. Certain chemical dyes, formerly produced only by Gruebler of Germany. are required ill technical work. Wistar is now pro ducing dyes the equal of Gruebler's.
 Tt may be interesting to know that much of this research work has been done by young Philadelphian who delved into chemistry for his own pleasure and eXperimented in his pri- vate laboratory. Wistar hearing ot some remarkable discoveries made by him immediately called him to the in Stitute placing its facilities at his dis posal for this important work.

WheE former Senator Joseph w.. Bailey retired from the United States senate he was about the only strenu ous defender of the constitution left on the Democratic side. 4 was Sen ator Bailey's complai.. that even such an able constitutional lawyer as the late Senator Bacon had almost de- serted him and that he was the lone figure left who was devoted to the constitution according 10 Democratic ideals.
 If Mir Bailey keeps track of senate proceedings at the present time he will observe that there are others fol- lowing in his footsteps Senator Reed of Missouri and Senator Hardwick of Georgia are never missing when the necessity arrives for taking care Of the immortal document which has had to undergo severe strain under recent administrations. Of course there is always strain upon the constitution during war times, and there are req sons to believe that if "Strict con Struction' should be applied there are quite number of instances when tiiu constitution has been disjointed in order to meet war exigencies.

Patriotism of high degree is shown by millions of people who cannot go to war, according to re- ports that have been received in Wash ington from various parts of the coun- try. As an instance of this patriotism the oversubscription to the Red Cross fund is cited, but 1t is shown in other ways that do not get before the public. The care that is given the soldiers and sailors Is greater than was ever before heard of in any war. Possibly it was because of the reports that the camps and clothing were inadequate last winter that an extra effort was made on the part of the people to sup ply all possible deficiencies and make up to the men who arc going to fight the battles of the country aLy snort conings that might have inadvertent- ly occurred i'll the rapid mobilization of an army.
 Foremost in this work nave been the women of the country, who have been doing everything in their power to furnish clothing and conveniences for the troops The fact that the Red Cross fund was oversubScribed is be lieved to be due largely to the work of the women in their Red Cross uni forms who have been soliciting funds.
 The authorities also give great cred 1t to the r. NJ. (. A. organization which has established rooms at every camp and by which extraordinary ef- forts have been made to furnish the soldiers with books and entertain. ments. The manner in which people have volunteered their services tn these entertainments is one of the features that has gratitied the authori- ties.
 Take it all in all, there is abundant evidence that the people of this eoun- try. with very few exceptions, are heart and soul interested in the war and are doing everything they can to help the soldiers and sailors who must fight the war, and make them comfort able, not only while at home, but so far aS is their power while they are abroad.

Former Senator Chauncey M. De pew. who was in Washington for few days recently, is n conservative on the subject of prohibition and if he had been in the senate he would not have voted for the prohibition amendment which is going 10 be one of the live Is sues in the campaign this fall. MT. Depew says that notwithstanding the fact that only very small percent age of the people of New York woule vote for ratifying the prohibition amendment. it Is likely that the lesiS- lature to be elected this fall will adopt 1t. He points out that those who are advocating the amendment are so very determined that they win secure pledges from candidates for inc legislature and that these candl. dates are tlmid enough to promise to vote for the amendment in order to assure their elections. II IS Sori oe self f-preServation measure and mem bers of the legislature know that 1T they do not pledge themselves to sup port the amendment they Will he marked men when the next election comes around. Just as senators and representatives in congress give at- tention to the wishes of their home folk. so do the members of state leg islotures. and that Is why the pr0hi hitionists are confident that they are going to win enough states to ratify the amendment after the election this fall.
