'INHUMAN AMERICANS.7

The German, press shrieks the dis
covery that arms taken from regi-
ment of American troops proved to
be sawed-off shotguns carrying buck
shot, contrary to the Geneva conven-
ton.
If our soldiers are using a weapon
employed against eXpress-car bandits,
who has a better right to complain
than the Germans? They have mere
" introduced poison gas and liquid
fire; poisoned wells; left man-traps
in retreat; torpedoed merchant ships
carrying women and children as pas
sengers; set savage dogs and equally
savage keepers on prisoners of war;
sunk hospital ships and bombed field
hospitals, and taken civil prisoners,
women and children, into slavery.
Their regard for Geneva rules and
Hague rules is well known. They be-
gan by tearing up their Belgian treaty
as a scrap of paper and they have
continued by aiding their Turkish
and Bulgarian allies in DISCRIMINATING
the Serbian, ROumanian and Armen-
ian population of coveted territory,
levying illegal acquisitions and hack
ing down fruit trees and pillaging
converts are minor pleasantries.
Upon a Christian nation thus scru-
pulous to a fault in making war those
inhuman Americans descend with new
WAYS and wiles. Whether they use
shotguns or not, they certainly aim
rifles with disconcerting skill and do
rot blush to stalk machine-gun nests
indian fashion instead of walking
CONFIDENTLY up to be shot. No won

ners are the amazement of the world,

WHERE ARE THE WEALTHY
SUBSCRIBERS?

Fifty-eight per cent. of the amount
subscribed to the First Liberty Loan
came from subscriptions in excess of
$4,000, 46 per cent. in the Second
Loan and "a per cent in the Third
The case for the rich folks appears
to have become very much worse in
the Fourth Loan. While the amounts
subscribed respectively are not given,
Secretary McAdoo has stated that of
the 100000 separate subscriptions
received on that loan, only 22,500 ap-
piled for amounts in excess of $4,000.
The Secretary added: at is preposter-
GUS to say that there are only 1880
men, women and corporations in
America able to lend more than $10,-
600 each to their Government"
This is true. There are several
times that number in Americas able
to do better than $4,000 many lib
erty Loan. They have had some rea-
son for holding back increasingly,
as it has. been and still is desirable
tO oiva +ho 1OaOo tho widest noCcih1e
distribution among small subscribers.
But the time has now come when they
must get back into line again, as in
the First, Second and Third Loans
raised, and small subscriptions alone
or in large part may not be equal to
the task.

A MERE MAN.

The extracts from the diary oof the
late Nicholas IL confirms previous
impressions Of the domestic character
of the late Car of All the Russias.
His notes necessarily have to do with
political conditions. But the man re-
Vealed is not the monarch so much
as the good family man, nor the Rus
clans all-powerful ruler but their
little father"
Nicholas is interested in news from
mamma" and from Misha, his bro
ther Michael, and concerned about the
happiness fthe Czarina He studies
geography with his son Alexis and
then 'fells a gigantic tree" with him

On the name-day of his daughter Olga

that flight to England which was
rever to be.
There are glimses of the statesman
in the Cars estimate of Kerensky, in
his diagnosis of the evil elements of
the revolution as in ST. Petersburg

and in bis query where were the men
"who could take this movement in
their hands and end the struggle with

But the interesting thing is the self
drawn portrait of a monarch who
might have lived happily in humble
station, content with novel-reading
and wood-cutting, as the royal victim
of the earlier French Revolution was
content with locksmithing and watch

Emperor in exile the once dreaded

CONFESSION OF FAILURE.

It was inevitable that the German
Government could not indefinitely con-
ceal from the German people the
strength of the American forces in
France, but in permitting the publ
cation of the admission that Secre-
tary Bakers figures are substantially
correct, it makes a confession that
would rock any other nation to its
foundations.
To admit the correctness of these
figures is to admit that the policy
submarine warfare has failed and that
the stoutest hope of German victory
has collapsed. In any other country
such a manifest trickery Of the peo-
pie would overturn the Government.
In Germany it is likely to have no
immediate effect whatever, for nothing
happens suddenly in Germany unless
the autocratic power so wills. Yet it
is bound to intensity distrust and

A DICTATED PEACE.

No peace that satisfies Germany
can ever satisfy US. 1t cannot be
a negotiated peace. 1t must be
dictated peace, and we and our
allies must dictate it.
This statement made by Sam Lodge
of Massachusetts in the United States
Senate will command general assent
1t expresses the view and the unalter-
able purpose of the great mass OF
the American people.
The peace which ends this war will
never be made to satisfy the German
Government as now constituted or
represented. and it will accordingly
never be made to satisfy the German
people in so far as they identify
themselves with that Government.
They can have peace which will be
honorable to themselves as a nation,
but they will first have to associate
themselves from the Government and
the men in the Government that start
ed this war.
That Government, in its spirit if not
in it's outward forms, is doomed. I'll
is going to be crushed out of all pos
sibility of revival 1t is going to be
dealt with in a manner to assure
the future safety of the civilized
world and that the blood of millions
of men shall not have been shed I'M
vain or for the life and fortunes OF
any dynasty against all the rest of
mankind. This is why it must be a.
dictated peace, and peace dictated
by us and out allies. The sooner the
German people get that knowledge
into their heads the more certain can
they be that a dictated peace bodies
no permanent i'll to them.

Since the appointment of w. II. Boyle

many birds whose crops had been stuffed

and other feeds and averaged about
eleven ounces to chicken. which weight

where dinner was served them. Then
they told her that, fascinated by news
paper stories OF the large salaries OF mo-

homes IN Philadelphia TO win fame and
fortune in the film world. They started

their careers and go home to their
mothers. They gave their names as
