CITIZENSHIP.

Have women the right to permanent patriotism? Ormus the flag follow the marriage certificate? An an swer to these questions will be supplied when congress votes on the bill introduced by Miss Jeannette Rankin which grants American women who marry foreigners the right to retain their citizenship.
 Under the law the daughter and the granddaughter of General Grant both forfeited their citizenship Mrs Nellie Grant Sartors became an EnglishwOman and Julia Grant Cantacuzene Russian. Mrs. Harriet Stanton Batch daughter of Elizabeth Cady Stanton also forfeit ed her American citizenship through marriage Gladys Vanderbilt Szecheny is today enemy alien of the land of her birth because she married Hungarian subject The latest American woman to assume foreign national
 y through marriage is the former Mrs Margaret Vivian Burton Thomason who married of Count Bernstorff and as this was her second marriage to German her first husband having been divorced Mrs. Thomson may have been woman without country at the time of her second marriage.

wisdom to America No longer there opposition to com bnatons for the purpose of selling manufactured articles commodities abroad Hereafter American producers
 may be permitted to combine in order to compete with for ,igners in the worlds markets It is big step forward and the results should be helpful
 When the war is there is certain to be econom fight In the dye industry and in the manufacture of other coal products Germany stills chance to gain the lost trade The various chemical manufacturers of Germany already have pooled their interests and planning to wage brisk fight The longer the con tinues the smaller chance Germany has of getting back what has lost Only foolish policy in administering the affairs of our government will destroy what has been built up since the war began.-(Sea P-D.

THE TARFF CONNUSSION.

If congress needs the plain demands of the people there will be no haphazard nkerng with the tariff Instead the schedules will be prepared from data furnish ed by commission of specialists who have had opportn- fly to examine all the facts The tariff commission, of which little has been heard since the campaign of year has been diligently devng into the subject and will have
 lot of information to lay before congress when the war IS over Until peace established it is unlikely that any attempt will be made to revise the schedules
 As a direct result of the war the United States will have many industries which must be considered in the category of infant industries so well known to the tar if orators of other days Notable among these is the manufacture of chemicals which has been established here through necessity since the supply from Germany has been cut off, Not only the chemical manufacturers of the United States producing certain kinds of dyes in suf fcent quantities to supply the local markets but they have entered foreign markets formerly controlled exc- svely by Germany It would be shortsighted policy n deed which would permit German competition in the home markets after the war It is subject to which the tariff commission has given much thought and it is almost cer tain that the tariff revenue only advocates will come around to the protective tariff idea
 Through the use of government subsidies, Germany has been able to ste competition in the worlds markets in many lines of endeavOr The war has brought some

MEMmLHANETOn nRAM THE LINES TOGETHER.

Familiar as we are becoming with uendlShneSS as the Huns teach and practice it upon the peoples of the coun- tries they occupy we cannot but grasp when read of plotting to poison bandages prepared in this country for wounded soldiers by the Red Cross. Though the worst this is but one of a number of magnancies which show that all enemies look alike to the Hun and he would de- strov them a armed and unamed active and inactive; the innocent the hepess the wounded in general ca asrophe of dabosm if he but had the satanic genius to devise it.
 There are those inclined to think that need be but little concerned over Hun maleyoence in this country; that we need have no great fear of damage from Hun craft and cunning In support of this opinion re- minded that there has been widespread violence and de- structveneSs which would indicate Hun organization and direction But every and again something hap pens to convince us we should not be too creduous on this score.
 It may have served the Hun purpose to make haste slowly with the propaganda of espionage and SeditiOn It takes time to perfect organization under conditions and in the Hun view that time may have rpened In our own behalf we should take the benefit of the doubt and draw the line tighter
 In this connection there is duty for every individual citizen to consider and act upon When dsoyalty is ens countered report it. Let the department of justice have knowledge of the people who by their talk and more es pecialy by their actions show sympathy with the Hun cause Let every citizen so far as opportunity affords be the eyes and ears of the government It is the only way to deal with enemy who knows neither honor nor mercy.

WILL NOT RETREAT
Women Volunteers VIII Not be De-
TERED by Bombing Of Hospitals
by the Germans.

Washington, June 1.-The delib-
crate bombing Of hospitals by Ger
man filters will not deter American
nurses from seeking service in
France, said Miss Jane A, Delano, di.
rector of the department Of nursing
Of the Red Cross, In a statement to-
day.
The persistent bombing Of Red
Cross hospitals, just as our drive to
obtain military nurses begins. may be
a coincidence" said Miss Delano. III,
however, the Germans believe that
such methods will have any effect in
lettering American nurses from
volunteering for hospital work, they
are badly mistaken.
"rraetics Of fr%ightfuIness will mere
Iy send more and Of them Ia
back Up our men. II it is the German
intention to brighten u women, they
will find that American women do
not know how to retreat, any more
than do our boys in Picardy. The en-
rollment Of nurses win be American
womanhood's answer"

Trade COMMISSIONS
Drastic Regulations Of Indus
try to President Wilson.
PROBE PACKERS INFLUENCE
Activities Of Big Concerns Thoroughly
investigated by Government-Made
Huge Profits last Year.

Washington, June 5.-Sweeping rec
concentrations for regulation Of the
canning industry were made today
to President Wilson by the federal
trade commission, on the basis of in
equities discovered in an exhaustive
investigation Legislation will be re-
CURED to put some Of the recommen-
dations into effect, while others may
be made operative under the food law.
Gamers were found to have aver
aged 80 per cent profit in 1917, com
Dared with 8 per cent the year before.
The food administration, the report
says, was not entirely successful in
preventing large advances in the
prices of raw vegetables last year.
Rulings Came Too Late.
Rulings which somewhat checked
the price of finished products came
TOO late to prevent unusually large
margins over costs, particularly in to-
mato and corn canning. Army and
navy purchases and other war de-
mands, however, are now tending to
place prices beyond control OF the
forces usually adjusting them,
The influence Of the large meat
packing corporations in the canning
trade was given especial attention by
the commission, which asserted that
Wholesale grocers consider the meat
packers their strongest rivals. Swift
& Co. was said to control Libby, Nc
Neill & Libby, the second largest pack
er Of canned foods in the country, ant
which made more than 20 per cent OF
its investment in 1917. Armour & Co
has become a jobber OF canned goods
probably larger than any wholesal,
grocer. according to the report. VII
son & Co. was recorded as acquiring
salmon interests on Puget Sound an,
%canneries in Canada.
To Restrict Future Sales.
Among the commissions recommer
dations were suggestions for restri,
tons of future sales and establishment
