DEMOCRATS BROUGHT THEM IN.

DEMOCRATS BROUGHT THEM IN.
This department is too patriotic
to use these pencils" wrote Inspector
c. o. Myers to w. D. Fulton, Ohio s
Secretary of State, on receiving a
consignment of pencils marked
Made in Germany" 1t was a fine
joke on the Democratic officials of
Ohio, whose party stands for free
trade. They are "too PATRIOTIC to
use pencils MADE in Germany" but
in 1913 their party was so unpatri-
otto as to make a bid for German
competition in lead pencils, against
those made in America" by reduc-
ing the tariff duty to ridiculous
rate, thereby enabling Germany to
stock our market so full that our i'm
porters are carrying those stocks four
years later. Do you Democrats and
free traders now see the point? If
the war lasts long enough perhaps you
will learn something in regard to
this matter. No amount of argu-
ment has ever been able to convince
you.

(From the Christian Register. Boston

NO one can be said to know any
class OF people who has not been in
intimate and sympathetic relation with
the best as we'll as the worst of the
class. We compare many persons
who live in the South, and think they
know the colored race, with others
who have had no such contact, but
who have come into intimate and sym.
pathetic relations with large numbers
OF that race whom their Southern
friends have never known; and Of the
two sets Of people we should say that
the second knew the colored people
better than the first. They know aspi-
rations among them that the others
90 not know, or, knowing, do not
enter into and appreciate; they know
capabilities by direct contact with the
best OF the race which others are obli-
v1ous OF; they know qualities which
only respect and sympathy can bring
out; they know possibilities to which
others by their very acquaintance are
blinded. II those who know the COL

they ought to credit to those on whom
they charge ignorance OF the colored
race the values that come from know.
Ing how many OF that race are the
equal Of any members Of the dominant
race in the highest abilities and In the
dearest aims. No estimate is worth
much which does not take people at
their best.

SOME RIVETER!

1t is very gratifying that every
once in a while colored persons do
something SO superior that the "su-
perior race have to acknowledge
it. This was the case last week when
a gang of colored riveters working
at the Sparrows Point plant of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation broke
the worlds record for driving rivets
in steel steamship. Charles Knight
drove 4,S75 three quarter inch riv-
cts, rs inches long in nine hours.
The previous high record was A.
442, established in Scotland.
Lord Northcliff who had a stand
ing reward of rs pounds for any
one breaking the record has sent that
amount to Charles knight.

The Color Line in the Catholic Church.

Inc color Line IN the Catholic Church.
(From the Southwestern Christian Ad-
vocate. New Orleans, La.)
There are two hundred thousand
colored Catholics in the United States
according to Walter F. McEntire, a
prominent Catholic, who in telling of
the orders and societies of men and
women working among color people in
the United States, among other things
says in the Tidings, of Los Angeles:
1.-THE Church knows no color-line in
the House of God, and any man who
tries to lay one down is not a true
Catholic'
This is good reading but it is not
true to fact. There are only two COL
ored priests in the entire Catholic
colored constituency of America, and
the Catholic Church is the only reli-
gious body in America that forces on
it's constituency white ministry
Moreover, the color issue is drawn as
completely in the Catholic Church as
elsewhere. There was time when
the Catholic churches welcomed col
ored people to the affairs but not now.
In st. Joseph Church, New Orleans, a
few seats in the rear-are marked re-
served for co1ored.

NOT ONE, BUT TEN MILLION.

The Philadelphia Ledger is of the
opinion that this war will produce no
Robert Morris, no Stephen Girard, no
Jay Cooke meaning by that that no
man will so impress himself upon the
financial operations of the government
during the war that he will stand out
like these figures of Revolutionary
and Civil War days. This may mean
some loss to the picturesqueness with
which historians may write the record
of our war for the freedom of the
world; but that will be more than
overbalanced by the gain to the ma

i hate the term Negro because it
Is being used in terms of hatred. It
is the cause of the segregation of the

WAR SUMMARY.

one year of ruthless warfare by Ger
man submarines brings this answer
from Sir Eric Geddes, first lord of the
British admiralty The submarine is
held" Coincident with this announce.
ment comes tht disclosure by a Dutch
newspaper that German military and
financial leaders expected the U.boats
to bring Great Britain to her knees in
six months and end the war.
Sinking of merchant shipping has
dropped below the level maintained be.
fore the policy Of unlimited destruction
went into effect Feb. /, 1917.
Interest is added to the strike situa.
ton in Germany by the publication in
German newspapers Of the outline Of
an alleged Anglo-American plot to
spread dissension i'm the central powers.
The German papers claim. reports
say, that 25OOOOOOO marks was raised
in Washington for the use of an organ
i2ation which was to organize revolts
and strikes in Germany and the coun-
tries Of her allies through branches in
neutral countries, and German speak.
ing neutrals sent into Germany.
Threats and force are being used by
the German military authorities to
crush the strikers. These drastic meas.
ures, however, have not yet ended the
strike movement.
Pessimism is said to exist in Berlin
over the outcome Of the Brest Litovsll
0eace negotiations. The Berlin press
says that the Russians have been en-.
couraged by the strike movement to re-.
sist Germany's demands.
In Petrograd the bolshevist author.
ties have broken up a counter-revolu.
tionary plot in favor of General Kale.
dimes, the Cossack leader. One Of the
| leaders Of the plot was killed, but the
other escaped. Sixty officers and sol
diers implicated in the movement were
| imprisoned.
There has been little activity on the
fighting fronts. The Americans in
France are having their share of artlI-
lery bombardments and rife fire ex.
changes. In the Italian northern front,
the Italians have repulsed an Austrian
effort to retrieve lost positions west of
| the Brenta.

ence, are gaining ground on the Rus.
