MINING OUR OWN ORES.

Right to the point appears to be the move in congress to make the United States independent of the rest of the world during the period of the war by encouraging the production .of ores, metals and mineral necessities for the security and defense of the nations. Large quantities of these have been imported in the past and much is still brought here from other shores. The importing of such ma ferial requires a large amount of ship ping and just at this time the country is in need of all the ships that it can get by new construction, by purchase and reQuisitios and by diyerting them rom other channels. Every ship that can be taken out of the impor ing ser- vice when it is possible to obtain such goods right here at home means a de- cided advantage to the nation.

as they should have been even if there was no war. But now. with conditions what they are. 1t is time thar every possible effort should be made in that direction.
 When the dyestuffs which were so largely obtained from Germany were cut off we were forced to engage in a business which had never been suf- ficfently encouraged and the result is that we are not only looking out for our own requirements and producing better line of dyes every day. but we are at the same time able to fill some of the wants of other nations. There is no question but what we can work our ore production to the point where it will greatly reduce if mol eliminate the necessity of relying up- on other countries and the quicker we can do it the greater will be the help thus obtained. .

THE LACK OF CARS.

The coal administration has had a busy and troublesome year. It started work while the railroads of the coun- try were under private control. That has since been changed and today all the railway lines of the country are under the direction Of She director general of railroads, 9 federal office holder. It is for the roads to do as he directs.
 As the result of this change there ought to be a closer cooperation be- tween these two branches of the gov ernment It ought to be possible for the fuel administrator to get the help 10 overcome the handicaps which have been previously encountered. That was one of the reasons for bringing about the change. It was desired that the best possible results for the good of the nation should be secured from the transportation lines, that conges- ton should be relieved and the full benefit secured from the rolling stock through the elimination of needless competition and therefore the making of the transportation facilities more available.
 What is the result? Right on top of the fact that the fuel administrator is urging the people of the country to stock up with coal as rapidly as pos sible for the coming winter. the com plaint is made that mines are closed others closing and still others pro- ducing far less than is possible, be- cause it is impossible to secure the necessary number of cars to handle the coal as fast as it can be mined If the cooperation which was expected in these two departments is not be. ing secured 1t would seem to be higT time that immediate attention was given to this matter.

MUST START IF AT HOME.

When the policy of reprisal was adopted by the allies because of the manner in which the Germans were killing non n-combatants and defense less women and children by their air raids which had no military value, it was resorted to in order to bring home to the people of Germany just what kind of treatment their govern ment was inficting upon the people of beIligerent countries who stood in the same relative position as them selves. Driven to it by the clamor of those who were suffering, the allied governments were forced to give the Germans a taste of the medicine which they were forcing upon other people.
 That this is being successfully ac- complished is now clearly demon strated by the people. of Karlsruhe who have petitioned the imperial German government. asking that ef- forts be made to reach an under standing with the enemy whereby all nations will abandon the unjustified methods of warfare. This makes it very plain that they do not like the penalty which Is being inn posed upon them and therefore that they do not approve of the methods which have been carried out by their government. If they are going to be made to suffer as they have from the attacks from the air they are anxious that such fighting methods be aban- doned
 Karlsruhe is not the only city which
 has felt the effects of the aeria
 bombing. Others have experienced as serious results if not worse and it is likely that they feel the same as dt the people of that section. Such being l the case there can be no surprise a | the forwarding of the petition, bu
 how can they expect that any othel government would enter into an!
 agreement with the imperial German | government now after the manner il which it has conducted itself? Tn reform is needed but Germany mus l start the reform at home.

FIGHTING FOR MEssINEs RIDGE.

Fer the past few days the Germans have been devoting extraordinary ef- forts to capture Neuve Eglise to the southwest Of Messines ridge and to the east of Bailleul Some terrible fighting has been going on in that To- cality and some tremendous losses have been suffered there. Several times has the town changed hands but at last accounts it was in the possession Of the enemy. It marked the only important Monday gain which was pense for their great loss in lives.
 It is recognized by the German staff that if the drive in the north is going to amount to anything it is necessary to drive the British off of Messines ridge which is the big obstacle in the way of forcing the British out of Ypres and back towerd the coast over a wide stretch in that region. The impossibility of securing this high ground by way of a frontal attack has Teen demonstrated. It was not so re- garded without a trial but the trial disclosed 1t conclusively. Since then the object has been to get at the rear of the ridge and Neuve Eglise and Wulverghum stood in the way of progress in that direction. It was therefore necessary that these points should be taken. The tenacity of the British forces upset the calculations badly and it is yet probable that the gain which has again been made there will be recovered by the throwing of new British forces into the front line at that point. The manner in which the British are holding their line in that region shows the response which they are making to the demands of General Haig.

czERNiN,s REsleNArloN.

Austria Hungary found itself in an
 unenviable position as the result Of the statements put forth by Count Czernin, his controversy with Premier Clemenceau of France and the letter of Emperor Charles. It is not sur prising therefore that the resignation of Count Czernin as the foreign min ister should be handed in. It was a situation which meant that someone had got to pay for the blunder and naturally 1t couldn't be the emperor.
 Count Czernin had been endeavoring to. take a leading part in the affairs of the central powers. He had been putting forth the appeals in behalf of peace and yet at the same time it was clearly set forth both by Austria and Germany that they were in full accord regarding the aims and con- duct of the war. When he attempt ed to fasten the responsibility for the asking for peace terms and the break ing off of negotiations when it was found that Austria stood with Ger many upon the retention of Alsace- Lorraine upon France he may or may not have known about the letter writ ten by the emperor. It is possible that he didn't for it is inconceivable that one so well versed in diplomacy as he would have stepped into such trap with both feet, but 1t was his attitude and his declarations which gave France the opening for bringing to light the letter which has now be- l come famous. He brought about by his actions the humiliation of Charles l. and he could not expect to escape | the consequences. Try as he would | further explanation would not cover up the very bad blunder. and the nat ural consequence is that Czernin must go. He appears to have been caught in the meshes of his own schemes.

Mir. Editor: MT. McWilliarns seems to be very much aggrieved in the mat ter of more wages for labor. There are a few conditions that he might enlighten the poor laborer on by tell ing us just how~much more three dol lars will buy of the necessaries of life today than one dollar would three years ago. How much of the wealth he has was accumulated by his own labor? How many of his laborers have anything left after he has fed. clothed and housed his family on the the present scale of wages? How many of his so-called undesirable eiti- zens are in his employ at the present time?
