When you read these reports of mutiny, rebellion and famine from Austria and Ger many, always keep the salt cellar firmly in your good right hand and use it every time you read line. They may we'll be founded upon much truth, and they may we'll not be. For three years we have heard them, and they have come to naught except the fiercest, strongest drive upon. Paris that the war has witnessed so far. Germany may well be on the verge of an industrial breakdown and great famine by every token she should be; but she still has plenty of shells and guns on her battle front; plenty of railroads and engines to move her troops; plenty of troops; plenty of strength and courage in the breasts of those same troops And Austria launched an offensive that has shaken the Italian line defended by three million men. Austria and Germany may be all in. We hope so. The interior signs and messages indicate it. But the exterior signs, as represented by their armies, indicate something different al- ready yet, as the immortal Mr. Potash would say.

And now they say we are to have 5000 900 men in the American army by August |. That is only little more than month away. Americans are holding fifty miles of battle front altogether on the western lines in France, according to authentic ad- vices now a week old Thus do great events crowd upon the very heels of each other in America part in the war. The first year 1t was all very discouraging and slow and prosaic Blunders, worry, shame and confusion were our portion then. Strikes and airplane scandals and machine gun delays formed about the only news of America part in the war It is true that we sent a few thousand regulars over there under Pershing, but they were scattered about in English and French training camps and not engaged in battle. But now the long waiting is about ended Castigny and Chateau Thierry are glorious beginnings of which we may talk in thrilling tones Ihree-quarters of a million men are more than mere expeditionary force And let us consider; if we can send half million men to France in less than three months with our present shipping facilities, how HldLy Cdu we SCHQ WllcH tue nuiIlDeI Ol these ships are doubled, as they will be within a few months9 How long will it take for thousand American airplanes a month to change the haze on the far Ger man horizon over therep Oh, yes, the news nowadays is tinged with shining lights and words that thrill. Our gladiators are leav- ing the long grind of the training camp and entering the ring. Listen The arena rocks to the sound of the cheering. We are coming to handstrokes now Soon we must mourn our dead. America is in terrible earnest. German propaganda can hamper but little now. In fact, pro-Germans lips are thrcttled over here They dare not murmur out loud As Bonar Law well said America has arrived '

War correspondents are agreed that the German policy Is to hammer, hammer, hammer, on the way to Paris, stopping only at necessary intervals to rest, for the next four months It Is in this period that Americas s efforts will count the most. Every man and gun and pound of food we can send over there before October will be worth two later on It Is now or never with the kaiser, and he knows 1t better than any one. Every resource and energy of the German empire will be hurled against the allies unceasingly in the wild, desperate hope that they may prevail before the American masses turn the scale. America has surprised both friend and foe by her efforts since last March. Three more months equal to the last three will turn the trick For the first time the American menace has chilled the German heart

is already felt and shown to the world on the western, front. Paris and London echo 1t. Berlin shudders and shouts her boasts the louder, but an alarm note can be heard like a discord in the German blare. Ger man official statements, to those who read closely and between the lines, show a studied and careful course of preparation for the German people for a large sized chunk of trouble from America And this, after these same reports had affected to ignore and despise America ever since we entered the war.

Germany started the gas attack, and now started the bombing of open cities, and now she is getting the worst of it. Germany started the propaganda, and now she is get ting the worst of it. Of all the propa- gandas ever started since Peter the Hermit preached the first crusade this one that Christendom has begun against Germany excels them all One hundred years hence it will not even have lost its original mo- mentum. Its blight will lie upon Germany like a plague and pestilence throughout generation after generation.

Here is new species of profiteering and piracy. Landlords in Washington, the na- ton capitol, are holding up war workers, who come there at the rate of 5000 month, for higher rents than government salaries will stand. Investigation de- veloped the fact that these landlord sharks are preying upon the workers at rate that drives one-third of the newcomers out of the city every month. Ihey cannot afford to pay the exhorbitant prices charged for any kind of shelter. The government will soon take hand in this pirate game

WHEELER AGAIN ASSUMES
 RESPONSIBILITY
CFrom the Douglas InternationaD

The telegram cabled from France to the Bisbee Review by Harry C. Wheeler, who resigned the office of sheriff in this county to go.to France with the American army, receiving a commission as captain, IS an expression that further proves the former sheriff to be a man of courage and de- termination to do that which he believes to be his duty regardless of consequences to himself. He wires to say that he assumes all responsibility for the deportation which occurred in Bisbee. on July l 2. last year; this he did at the time the deportation occurred and at all times before leaving tor France as captain in the United States army. When the United States labor com mission visited Bisbee, Sheriff Wheeler in lengthy letter addressed to Secretary Will son fully explained the causes which led him to form an organization ot duties to drive the disoyal l. w. w. and those who upheld them from the Warren district. 1t was the desire of Mr. Wheeler, according to his testimony before this commission to protect the men who were at work in the mines and who were being harassed and threatened daily by the l. w. W. pickets.
 Captain Wheeler was the leader ot the men who were so severely denounced as the most contemptible of beings by Cover nor Hunt in his message to the special ses- sion of the legislature and we cannot but believe that Wheeler had the governor and his message in mind when he penned the cablegram to the Bisbee Review. Major John C. Greenway, of the engineer corps, now on the west front defending the de- mocracy of the world against the assault of the Hun, was also among those of the Warren district whom the governor so un- mercifully excoriated because they refused to allow the 1. ". w. to destroy the indus tries and homes of Bisbee, Lowell and Warren.
 Here are two men for comparison with the men who in public and private whine about the corporations of the state and try to point to them as responsible tor the acts of the l. w. w. Wheeler and Greenway both left fine positions and great oppor- tunities for the future to fight for the peace and security of the millions of laboring men in this country, for their homes and their children future happiness and freedom. That the property interests of this country might remain secure as a guarantee for future prosperity of the man who depends upon his wage. These men are fighting and risking their lives to save the homes of the men who are continually whining about what happened to the l. w. w. at Bisbee last year.
 Harry Wheeler no doubt had read the message of the governor to the legislature before writing his cablegram to the Bisbee Review

One of the clements of the trials of almost every prisoner taken from the Pima county jail, is missing in the Cy Brome case. He does not wear the kangaroo suit. The kangaroo suit is the co-operative-owned and worn suit of clothes of the prisoners at the Pima county jail. Every prisoner who comes to the jail. pays his fine and is admitted to the society of the prison CTS. is entitled, if he is not neatly clothed to wear the kangaroo suit. and to be brushed and sroomed beSore he goes into the court room for trial. Al though the kangaroo suit is not a rub Der suit, it has done duty on the frames of little men, big men, thin men and fat men. It is all the same the one faithful suit Sometimes 1t hangs dejectedly. Sometimes it seems to be bursting with health and girth. But always it sticks to the job.

The suggestion that 6 labor-union ticket may be on the fall ballot is not considered by Senator ClaypOol to be well founded. He says there will be nothing of the sort in his district, which includes Globe and Miami. In some quarters there is assumption that the socialists will make an espe- cial effort this fall if Hunt is not nomi- hated for governor In such a con tingency, democratic senators calmly claim the state as at least 10000 demo- cratic and assert that any democrat but Hunt could expect the normal democratic vote and election there from.
