Villa Again.

Francisco Villa is again in evidence,
not dead, or buried, despite repeated
reports and after lonr silence and OBJ
security. It is reported that he is NOV
ing in the direction Of the American
border in the region Of Ojinaga, with
q herd of $50 mules and $50 bars Of
eilver which he expects to exchange for
ammunition He is said to have band
Of 400 men, with whom on Sunday he
raided Jiminez and robbed two pas
senger trains. Villa is simply now a
troublesome outlaw, of no political i'm
portance whatever, with whom the
Mexican government must deal Is with
. bandit He is a man Of remarkable
resource, a man Of great courage and
evidently with the power Of compel
ling a following. The members Of his
band are doubtless all desperadoes who
expect NO mercy If taken by tho gov
eminent. Pordrio Diaz used to use
such men by drawing them into his
own service with the distinct under
standing that their lives were always At
his disposal As long as they behaved
they might live.

panies the proposal, showing that 3s,-
900 people live within 500 feet of the
proposed belt line and u, 400 people
within 1000 feet Of It; the latter rep
reseuting Is per cent Of the popula-
ton. This in in reference to the CEN
sus Of last November, since which .
good many thorsand people have been
added to the city's population; but
the computation stands as relatively
accurate.
Although this plan has undeniable
merits, what chiefly concerns the great
er part Of the people Of Washington
today is the utter inadequacy Of the
street car sprvice morning and even
ing, regardless Of locality. The cars
are insufficient in number. This, how
ever, will soon be remedied to some
extent by the arrival Of the newly or
dered cars, assuming that competent
man power can be enrolled for their
operation. The tracks are in q de-
plorable condition, owing, it is claim
ed, to the shortage Of working forces
to make repairs. If the government
takes on the construction Of tho new
route it should at the same time insist
upon a thorough rehabilitation Of the
existing lines aud the maintenance Of
schedules that will carry the people
without the dangers now attendant
upon daily street car riding.

other elements, It should be adopted.
Gain in efficiency, economy or privacy
is to be sought by any means. IF the
automatic is superior in all three re-
spects there should be no doubt what
ever Of immediate action toward its
instsllation. Opinion in the Post Of
fee Department is already favorable to
the automatic system, and presumably
upon the taking over Of the telephones
o start will be made to this end.
The people Of Washington are con-
cerned to the extent that they hope
for a chea4er and q better telephone
service. If under federal control they
are given such service they will wei
come the change.

Automatic Phones.

telephone company should have es-
tablished the automatic system last
year Or earlier this year is not 50 i'm
poresnt as the determination Of the
installation Of that method Of tele-
phony now under the nsw regime Of
federal supervision. The Public Utili-
ties Commission occupies in the pres
ent matter . somewhat anomalous po-
sition, It's jurisdiction possibly merged
into that Of the Post Office Depart
msut, which now has control Of the
wire systems Of the country. How
ever, any evidence that it may secure

Tentative Work.

This is from the latest news story
concerning the revenue labors Of the
ways and means committee:
$50 far, no new source of tax has
been considered, but new taxable
sources may be found when luxuries
are considered. Treasury experts have
advised the committee by doubling
the present tax on liquors, tobacco,
soft drinks, admissions to amusements,
transportation, club dues and excise
tax on such articles as automobiles and
perfumes, the present revenue from
those sources of $961 ,000, 900 can be
doubled"
Luxuries will be taken up by the
committee Monday. Animated debate
is probable. That lu1uries should be
assessed libenHy is very persuasive.
But there is much discussion possible
as to what luxuries, and how much.
Large interests are concerned, and
must be considered
Doubling the present tax on liquors
IL suggested. In that proposition is
contained the prohibition question liz
its present shape in the Senate. II
liquors are to continue on the tax list,
and at large figure, the Senate will
be asked when it reassembles to 6e-
feat prohibition. If the Senate insists
on prohibition, aud votes prohibition.
it Will be asked when the revenue bill
is sent over by the House to find the
liquor taxes elsewhere.
There is now a political end TO the
question. Prohibition will be facto.
in this years New York campaign.
Gov. Whitman, likely to lead his party
again, has taken the dry side, while
Tammany, playing for state control,
is, of course, for the vets. The cleo
tion comes in November. If on the
eve of that the Senate should defeat
prohibition, Tammany will rejoice and
be helped.
But, as the announcement goes, the
committees present work is tentative.
Much Of it may be recast at later
day. More Of it may be reeast by the
House when the House reviews the
measure, and much Of the Houses re-
view may be recast by the Senate when
the latter body enters upon its re-
view.
Business and the country generally
will have to be patient. This new
measure cannot be disposed Of in q
hurry. It will carry an enormous
amount of money, and touch many
new sources Of supply. Congress is
Cup against" the biggest revenue
problem the nation has ever known,
and at a time when conditions are
confused beyond precedent.
But, in time, bill, shaped partly
BY the ways and means committee,
partly by the House, and partly by the
Senate, will become a law, and the
law be put into operation. That is
the one thing certain today. AL the
rest is necessarily subject to change.

Offensive Imminent in the North


struggle south Of the Aisne continues
to hold the chief attention Of the ma
tions arrayed against the Hun, eyes
also are diverted to Flanders and
northern France, where the armies of
Crown Prince Rupprecht and Sir Doug
las Haig face each other as two mas
tits ready to spring. Notwithstanding
the fact that Gen. Foch has seized the
initiative from the Germans below the
Aisne and is delivering effective blows
against Teutonic military prestige and
morale, it is generally recognized that
this conflict cannot achieve the main
purpose Of winning the war. The allies
must strike Mt other points, and with q
force which will rock Berlin itself.
If the Germans are beaten below the
Aisne they also must be beaten above
it. If Germany is to realize that her
armies are inefficient and unable to
carry out the tainglorious ambitions
of the German governmental clique the
allies must strike and strike hard at
other points, and the most logical
place for them to move forward would
be in northern France, between Albert
and Arras, or in Flanders, around Ypres.
There they would have it within their
power to undo the things done by Teu-
tonic might earlier in the years strug-
gIes.
Likewise if the Germans are to eoun-
teract the evil effects Of the reverses
suffered by the crown prince below
the Aisne they also must resume the
task Of trying to reach the channel
ports at the point where they left OF
in tho spring. The allies as well as
the Germans have much to achieve by
successful operations along the north
ern section Of the western front, and
that the hour is approaching when one
belligerent group or the other will un-
fasten the military foodgates is evil
dent.
Through his efforts below the Aisne
Gen. Foeh at q single blow wrested the
advantage of initiative from the en-
emy. Barring the battles of the
Somme Last year, it is the first time
the allies have shown their offensive
power in such way as to make the Ger
mans doubt their own ability or cause
the German people to suspect the eff
cheney Of their military machine. Gen.
Foeh undoubtedly will not permit the
enemy to regain this initiative, fac
tor in war which increases with sue
cessful endeavor. The allies have it
within their power to keep the Ger
mans on the defensive for the remain
der Of the war.
The British are ready along the
northern section of the western front.
Increasing raids on the Lys salient
and between Albert and Arras prove
their offensive power. Futile German
reactions in the region Of Meteren and
Hebuterne again gave further evidence
that the British are ready for counter
blows. Artillery actions continue
heavy, and Gen. Foch may soon give
the signal for the drives for which the
allied world looks.

CAME OVER TO IT'S FRIENDS
Eagle in France Quickly NaturaIized
When Made Prisoner, and Went
Into Battle Against Huns.

This story is told by Stars and
Stripes, the. American army paper
printed in France:
On Bastille day a group of French
and YankS were celebrating in little
town not far behind the lines. The
Yanks were doing their part by pitch
ing small coins into a tin can when Il
big eagle swooped down from the
north and alighted on the ridgepole
of barn. He was so black and rapa-
cious and altogether militaristic in ap-
pearance that he looked as though he
might have flown squarely out Of the
Prussian coat of arms.
"Fritz, la" shouted French SOL
der, and the game stopped.
Somebody got a net, and somebody
else got up on the roof. The net was
too short and the eagle just looked at
Il, yawned and went to sleep. A young
French soldier who started d second
offensive was foiled when the eagle
awoke and few lazily to a neighboring
roof. Another tried This time the
eagle Topped of and alighted on the
American billet.
He seemed to think he was safe
there, or perhaps he didn't mind, for
the next attempt to snare him sue

Of shell fell on the town as Yank and
French went up into the line. And

INCREASE NUMBER or cows
Dairy Herds of All European Countries
Depleted to Appalling Degree
We Must Help.

By CARL vRooMAN, Assistant Sec
rotary of Agrieulture.3
The dairy herds of the old world
are depleted to an appalling degree.
There is not a country in Europe
where the people have enough dairy
products, and this process Of depletion
is, going on every day. and every week,
and every month, and will continue to
so on as long as this horrible war
lasts.
When the war is finished, we will
find the world with a demand for dairy
products twofold, fourfold, tenfold
greater than the supply.
Europe will come to us with out
stretched hands, every country in Eu-
rope, and say to US: I'VE must have
milk; give US canned milk; give us dry
milk: give us butter; give US cheese ;
give us dairy cattle: give us animals
to build up our herds again."
And unless America has stimulated
the production of dairy products, has
increased her supply of dairy animals
far beyond anything in the past, she
will be utterly unable to supply this
demand.
We will supply as much of this as We
can, because they are going to be will
ing to pay practically any reasonable
price for our live stock: and we will
supply so much of it that our GTvn re-
sources will be exhausted.
Then this country will he .-rthoai
sufficient dairy prodUt!g.
