CieyelaHd'S excellent showing in the
American league race is due consid-
erabIy to the efficient pitching of Guy
Morton, whose speed and curves have
been unusually battling this year
Only recently he came within an ace
of pitching no-hit game. Amos
Strunk of the Red SoX is the player
who stopped him from accomplishing
this unusual feat by driving out sin
gle, the only hit the Red SOx OBJ
tnined. MortOn's twirling has been
steady and effective all year and if
he maintains the pace at which he is
going il is believed in Cleveland that
the Indians will make the Red SOx,
Yankees and White Sox hustle to win
the championship.

She looked at the general, her dark
eyes seeming, as he afterward said, to
be seeking to read his soul After
short silence she came to the point d.
rect by proposing that he should mar
ry her. She explained that she owned
large landed properties but, the slaves
having been set free, she could not OBJ
tain the labor to till her lands. She
needed man to lean upon.
General Hamilton, somewhat taken
aback by a proposal he had not reck-
oned upon, rose to the necessity of the
occasion, however. and with all the
gallantry and sympathy inherent In an
honorable man, explained to her that
there was a little woman left behind
In Ohio to whom his heart was pledged

was over, which he felt sure would be

could be of service to her, neverthe-

a young colonel in his command, hand
some, brave and the soul of honor
who, SO far as he knew, had no ties,
and If she were agreeable he would
take pleasure in bringing him to her
house and introducing him. The young
lady signified her willingness. The
general went back to Headquarters,
sent for the young officer and after a
private conversation with him they set
out for the young lady's residence
There they were received with proven
bal Southern courtesy and dignity, and
after the Introduction and the inter-
change Of compliments the general
withdrew.
"And, do you know" said General
Hamilton in after years, that in the
closing days Of the war those two 'ene-

Paper Scarce in Wartimes

During the War of the Revolution
persons engaged in the manufacture of
paper were exempted from cOnScrip-
ton. AS the war advanced the sup
ply of paper for cartridges and wad-
ding ran so low that the government
advertised for it, and finally ordered
the public to produce all they had
even sending files of soldiers to search
for the Indispensable article where
there was any likelihood of finding IT.
In the garnet of house where Benja-
min Franklin once had his printing of
flee were found $500 copies of a SER
mon by a Philadelphia divine on ''De-
fensive War" These were seized and
used to make cartridges for the bat
tie of Monmouth. The results of the
battle showed cOnclusively that it was
"a most striking DISCOURSE" During
the Civil war common news paper sold
for % cents per pound, and ten years
later it sold for 10 cents per pound.

Hamilton commanded a brigade in
Sherman's army, being at the time one
of the youngest brigadiers in the serv-

host which, under Sherman, made the
famous march to the sea.
After the army had passed through

Why We Fight
Because Germany Law 10 the Law
Of the Jungle and Her Doctrine
"Misht Is Right"
BY CLARENCE L. SPEED
Secretary Of the War Committee Of the
Union League Club Of Chicago.


We are at war with Germany be-
cause Prussia dominates Ger
many, and from the days of Freder-
lex the Great, Prussia's law has been
the law of the jungle, her doctrine
Might is Right" and her policy. in
dealing with other nations, one Of rob-
bing the weak and terrorizing the
strong. Germany has grabbed terri
tory and exacted tribute from her
neighbors, and finally, her greed be-
coming greater, has looked out over
more distant lands, and has commit.
ted herself to policy Of world domi-
nation which menaces the continued
free existence of every nation which
will not submit to her will.
Germany's policy is not an acciden
tai one. 1t has been carried out with
remarkable singleness of purpose
from generation to generation OF
Hohenzollern rule, from the time
Of the Great Frederick until to-
day. Germany's atrocities are not
accidental. They are a deliber.
ate, well thought out part of this
Hohenzollern policy, which was to
break down the resistance of her op-
ponents, not only by fighting and de-
feating their armies but by killing,
torturing and terrorizing the civil
populations.
The German rulers committed them
selves to the doctrine of the survival
of the fittest. Through generations Of
teaching they made the German peo-
pie believe that they, and they alone,
were the fit.
We have the words Of the German

rulers aGd German warriors and Ger
man leaders of thought for all of this
More than that we have the perform
ance of German officers and German
armies in conquered lands to prove it,
Let's start with Frederick the
Great In presenting the evidence
This monarch, who earned his SOU
bors. rather than through any real
qualities of mind which he showed,
said, in letter to his minister, Rad
twill:
IF there is anything to be gained
by 1t, we will be honest; If deception
is necessary, let us be cheats. One
takes what one can, and one is wrong
only when obliged to give back"
This philosophy, applied to present
conditions, means that Germany was
right when she took Belgium, and will
be wrong only If she is not able to
hold 1t.
From Frederick the Great to Bis
marck is long jump in the matter
of time; but we find the Prussian pol
icy unchanged. Speaking before the
! military committee of the Prussian
Chamber Of Deputies in 1852 Bis
marck said:
mot by speeches and resolutions
Of majorities are the great questions
of the time decided. but by iron and
blood"
Then, with blood and iron, Prussia
rl/ ~
territory in 1864, beat and robbed Aus
tria in 1866, and finally, in 1870,
brought France to her knees and took
her richest provinces.
Here is what the present kaiser told
his troops when, In 1900, they were
about to depart for China to put down
the boxer uprising:
use your weapons in such a way
that for a thousand years no Chi
nese shall dare to look upon German
askance. Be as terrible as Attilla's
Huns"
Coming on down to the present war
we find German minister accredited
to neutral state far across the sea-
one which one would think should be
politics-writing home to his govern
ment, In state paper, advising the
sinking Of two ships from this neutral
nation, in such manner that no trace
be left. Dead men, he believed tell
no tales.
It was Baron Luxburg, minister pleni-
potentiary to Argentina, who wrote
this amazing dispatch on May 10, 1917:
II beg that the small steamers Oran
and GuazO which are nearing
Bordeaux be spared if posi-
BILE, or else sunk without a trace be-
ing left"
This telegram was intercepted in the
United States and published. 1t sent
q thrill of horror around the world.
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg is
true disciple of Frederick the
Great, Bismarck and his royal master.
In public speech on January 81, 1917,
he said:
"When the most ruthless methods
are calculated to lead us to victory,
swift victory, they must be employed"
So they were used, and are being
used today. They include sinking Of
hundreds Of neutral ships, the burning
of cities, the deliberate devastating
of the fair lands Of France, the ravish-
ing of women, the enslavement Of
workmen and the murder of little chill
dren.
Horrors such as these are told in de-
tail in "!The Prussian System" by F. G.
Walcott, who, for long time, was en-
gagged in behalf of America in trying to
get food to the Poles whom the Ger
mans were deliberately starving by
the hundreds of thousands so that they
