GERMANS POOR SPORTS

The Germans complain that the use Of shotguns by
American troops is barbarous. Save the mark! The Ger
mans, by their own acts, long ago disqualified themselves
whatever by their enemies in this war. When the Ger
mans, under the direct orders of their military and naval
heads, early in the war began to kill women and children
at sea, to fire on hospital ships and land hospitals, to sack
and burn cities, to kill Belgian villagers, to deport into
slavery civilians who had come under their control, to
trenches with gas, and to do the hundred other things
which have characterized their, warfare, they. placed
out of the list of civilized eombatants, and as
sumed the position of ferocious beasts, to be destroyed by
whatever means came first to hand.
And, following the course OF the bully always and
acts known to man, whine at every indication Of reprisal.
The Germans bombarded undefended and defenceless
watering places on the English coast. They killed civil
ians by the indiscrinitnate dropping of bombs on London,
Paris, and other English and French cities when no pos
s:Ele military advantage could have been gained by their
ping bombs on the great munition, centers along the
Rhine, the German government held up its hands in hor-
ror. T.
Without pretending to any expert knowledge in the
matter of military weapons, we believe that a wide

pieces. we hope they will keep it up, regardless Of whines

RAIN GOD SEND TO CROPS.

Minneapolis. July 19.-Reports re-
ceived by Minneapolis millers and
grain dealers confirmed the belief of
other agricultural men that the ain

regional correspondents telling Of the
long wished for. rain. Although the
storm was quite severe in some dis
tricts-particularly in Minnesota and
along the eastern edge of the Dako-

the tremendous value Of the rainfall
for the growing grains. y

GREAT CHANGE
 IN WAR PLANS
 BY THE KAISER

LONDON, Sept. 3O.-The kaiser telegraphed to the Westphalian pa triotic society that Germany was now to use every available force flor tn protection of the fatherland. Ho claims that the war that Germany is now fighting is an enforced defense war and that the allied nations are determined to crush Germany He believes that the Germans can be successful in the defense of the fatherland and thus will be winning victory.
 The plan of the kaiser is rapidly undergoing change and the British leaders regard his present attitude as simply an indication that Germany is reaching the~end of their lopH and that the leaders are now simply fighting to save their own positions as dictators. The kaiser's dream of place in the sun and of "Gott init unS" are words of the dim past which the people must forget for il was all a mistake and should not be mentioned in the empire.
