The Third Liberty Loan went
lover the top" in New England
with colors flying. Vermont was
the first state in New England
to raise it's quota and Canaan was
the first town in the state meeting
the same. Maine raised the largest
percent, New Hampshire and Ver-
mont followed. The percent for
New England was 122, Vermont 1877,
Essex County 1875, Canaan 200, and
Brighton 1876 percent. The Island
Pond National Bank has AS subscrib-
ers to the Third Loan and Portland
and New Hampshire banks have
much more than that number from
towns in the county. The showing
for Essex County is splendid when
the conditions here are taken
into consideration. Several towns
the County Chairman, L. B. Jones,
was unable to reach owing to the
condition of the roads, and the popu-
lation of the county is mostly farm:
ing with no large firms to help out
on subscriptions. The people are
patriotic and loyal and like other
good American citizens eager to do
their bit in this great war.

The many serious auto accidents
this spring ought to hold a warning
lesson for all drivers. That little
heed is given to these happenings is
shown every day. There are far too
many auto drivers who break speed
limits, take chances on sharp turns
and wrong sides of the road that are
extremely hazardous. Because they
have escaped is no assurance they al
ways will. There will come a time
when they will meet in a collision
and no one can tell the outcome.
Right in our village every day these
chances are taken. The speed mania
gets them and the excitement Of TAX
ing chances holds in a clutch that
common sense cannot break. When
an auto driver enters a village or
ices a warning sign precaution
should be taken and speed laws
obeyed.

The boys in khaki are going over
to France in a steady stream and by
the end of the year there will be
millions of our boys fighting for a
world wide cause. Is it any wonder
the thoughts of the American people
are centered in France? Do you
wonder they want to know what is
happening to their boys cover
there? The time is past when
complete reports will give informa-
ton to the enemy and it is wise for
the government to loosen the censor
ship that the folks back home may
know what is happening to the boys
lover there"

Wage increases become neces-

good, if the landlord is permitted
to absorb all such increases by in
creasing the rent to correspond.
Food prices are being regu-

being made to hold down the cost

TELLS CLUB ABOUT
GOVERN MENT WORK

In a brilliant and interesting
address before members OF the
Tacoma branch of the Kiwanis
club Tuesday afternoon, Special
Assistant Attorney General Clar-
eace l.. Reames. OF Seattle, told of
the work the government is doing
In dealing with the alien enemy
and other questions arising out of
che war.
Mr.. Reames told his audience
that at the time of Americas en-
trance into the war, there were
100000 Germans and 100000
Austrians, all unnaturalized, who
automatically came under the
head of ALLEN enemies"
In regard to these people, the
president has issued four procla-
nations at different times setting
forth conditions that these people
must conform with.
within 10 days of our entry
into the war;" said Mr.. Reames,
practically every German alien in
the United States who was known
to be at all dangerous in any way,
was on his way to an internment
camp, where they will be kept I'M
til Lhe close of the war;"
In smashing indictment of the
!. w. w. organization, Mr.. Reames
said that ahho the organization
claimed 10000 members in Wash
ington, government checkings
proved that this claim was wildly
exaggerated.
They have about 10000" said
Mr.. Reames, 5000 of whom are
unnaturalized citizens, but 1t Is a
very hard matter today for any
officer OF the law to get a man to
admit that he is a member Of this
organization.

every one Of these 1. w. VS."

saved the lives Of the party.
Another offender, when discov-
cred with his speeding machine,
was directly In line with the CEN
ter OF the range and he can thank
the quick sight of the officers in
charge that he is not in some hos
pital.
Still a third car, apparently
ioaced with camping party, came
upon the range during the night.
Military authorities urge civil
ians to exercise the greatest eau
ton when they are near any of
the target posts. Notices are post
ed in conspicuous places. Red
flags also waive from these posts.

1 went on Mr.. Reames, land intern
them until the end of the war,
then the government is going to
do it,"
In the course of his address,
Mr.. Reames paid a tribute to the
work OF the United States secret
service and to the bureau of inves-
tigation. both departments with
which the department of justice
is in close touch with in its war
work.
You hear much about the, Ger
man system Of espionage and Sc
cret service" said Mr.. Reames,
but | want to tell you that COM
pared with our secret service they
are away behind; and / have had
the opportunity of investigating
the work of our bureau which
believe to be one of the strongest
investigating bodies in the world
today.
You don't hear OF the work
the various departments of the
government are doing" said Mr..
Reams. land it is not always pos
sible that you should, but | want
to tell you that every citizen has
a mission too at this time and is a
part of that great work.
You can help us in great
degree in our work, but remem-
Der always that the government
does not want rumors; 1T does not
want spite information reported
to its departments; all the govern
ment wants is the loyal bona fide
cooperation of its hundred odd
million citizens, and IL 1t has this
there is no nation in the whole
world. not even that dominated
by that crazed war-maniac, the
kaiser, that can ever menace the
liberties and freedom which has
made America so dear to the
hearts Of its people,"
