"To hell with the HOhenzOllerns and 'Hapsburgs," the slogan proclaim 1 ed by Henry Watterson in the col umns of the Louisville Courier Jour- nal and which somewhat startled the country, September 3, 1914, has been answered sooner than it's author had expected.
 ''The Courier Journals prophesy," said MT. Watterson, now editor em- critus, in a statement shortly after Emperor William abdicated, "that in .thirty-five years there would not be a crowned head in Europe will also come true. It has been for a long time obvious that autocracy was on the down grade. This is a poor era for kings, kaisers and other figure heads. The world is moving toward f-government Each man thinks himself to wear the purple. Let us put upon the Kaiser's tomb Ben John sons inscription over the grave of a pig:
 '"Whilst he lived he lived in clover; When he died he died all over.''
 The United States was not a belli- gerent when Mir. Watterson's slogan was coined. It was widely quoted and was the subject of heated controversy between pro-German and pro ally
 While a storm brewet about him, NIr. Watterson continued to consign the ruling houses of Germany anc Austria Hungary to perdition through the editorial columns of his paper.

 The speaker said that conservation of our natural resources is another question of greatest importance, "we have changed our position from deb- tor nation to creditor nation. Today, and from now on, we vii be the fin ancier of the world The money cen- ter has been transferred from London, to New York, and that means that we are in position henceforth to exploit the natural resources of any part of the world without exhausting our own.
 We are a great nation, but if we are to remain a great nation for all time to come, we must preserve our natural resov rces.'

MAXIMUM PRICES FOR
 MEDICINES FIXED

A decree conferring the power on the mayors of the cities to fix maxi mum prices for medicines most in use has been issued in Italy. The excess sive prics chargd in some communi- ties for necessary medicines threat ened to imperil seriously the public health, as they placed the remedies for the cure of common ills beyond the reach of persons of moderate means.
 Heavy penalties for those who dis regard the decree have been es- tablished. They may be fined $20O imprisoners for year, and in certain cases their shops requisitioned by the authorities.

TO THE HUN.  By Marion Couthouy Smith of The Vigilantes.

1 You who have known no pity, the chains you forged shall bind you; You shall hear on every path you tread the steps of doom behind you The dreadful eyes of little child shall stare in the dark and blind you You who have struck the dying, what
 star ill heaven shall hold you? The vagrant spirits of stark space
 shall flee when they behold you; No light shall dawn on your failing
 eyes when the mists of death en-
 fold you.
 You whose spreading treacheries all
 faith, all truth, have riven, Who have trampled every crown of
 right for which mans soul has
 striven,
 Would justice live on the earth again
 if you could be forgiven You who have known no honor, what
 spacious words reprieve you? When you shall plead your evi! cause,
 what blind souls can believe you? If you crawl to the council chamber,
 what kind of hands can receive you; Among all men to the end, your pres-
 ence shall sound warning; No rightful share can be for you in
 the joy of earth's new morning.; But the mercy none may dare with
 hold we shall grant you through

THE EPIC MAKERS.

(From the New York Tribunc) Oh, for another singer
 Like them who sang of old! They made the cruel tender;
 The made the coward bold They sang the sineWs into men, The heroes into flight; They sang the sun into the dawn, The stars into the night. But we on whom the awful ends Of all the world are come Cry, and the muses answer not; The Oracles are dumb. Yet who of all that thrilling choir Had our high theme for song? Such rapture of endeavor!
 Such agony of wrong! "The face that launched thousands
 ships"
 Out of the Argive Bay Was it more fair then Freedoms, Which launches ours today? To our success King Arthur's knights Drink in their ghostly hall. The shadows of our battling arms Through far-off ages fall. How shall the mighty theme be sung Our words are wan and cold. If God would send singer now Like the great bards of old! 1 saw a sealing eagle. Up azure SOireS he ran Throated with thunder, bOWcllcd with
 fire
 A bird with the brain of a man. l saw a million poets
 On Flanders heaving plains, And all the harps since Homer's Were drumming in their vcins l saw the blue lanes boiling
 Around the rushing keels-- Keen eyes upon the castles,
 Both hands upon the wheels. l saw the wOlfish faces
 Sharpen with sudden fear: l heard the old gales laughing "The ArgOnauts are here!" And l cried, "To the brave forever The singing-leayes belong! Hail to the mightier minstrels!
 These are the sires of song."

POSTWAR SITUATION.

To meet the postwar situation, the worker must be educated to the fact that he is better off under a decreased wage than under high wages of war times, Ralph Van Vechten, vice presi- dent of the Continental and Com- mercial National Bank, said in an ad- dress here to Western newspaper men.
 T am not disturbed about socialism in America" said Mr. Van Vechten speaking at a dinner given by Armour & Company, "but I am disturbed about the labor situation to follow the war. It is up to you men to show the labor jng man he is going to be better off under decreased wages and declining prices, than he is under wages of war time. The value of his dollar will in- crease from now on and the price of commodities and labor will go down. That is you problem. If it is not clear ly brought out, we are bound to have more or less trouble.'
 Touching on the question of finance, the speaker said that when war broke out it seemed tremendous under taking to place five hundred million dollars of Anglo Franco bonds, @%slich was placed by the Morgan house, Yet here in the Fourth Liberty Loan six billion dollars was placed with great CT ease than five hundred million dol lars," Mir. Van Vechten said.
 Ut shows the tremendous growth in our banking power brought out by the necessities of war. If Mir. Armour today wants to finance government contract, he may have all his credit exhausted-and l mean by that he may his lines full at every bank where he does business, but that does not matter; he has another piece of ma chinery, and that is the banks accept. ance. We can finance government con- tracts mounting up into the hundreds of millions of dollars through the medium of the bank acceptance, which we did not have before the war. It is an instrumentality that has been brought out by war necessities, and it is only one of several instrument talities which have come through this : awful catastr6ph.
 But, if the problems of the war have been stupendous, 1 beliece that the problems of peace after the war will be still greater. I do not think any of us realize the tremendous in- flation under which we are working today, and when you consider that at the very minute the armistice is sign ed the bubble of imitation is pricked, then you begin to realize what our problems will be in the readjustment which is bound to come.

OF course, there are many heart burn

Congress is being importuned to upset

she is not sure what, in dear France.
The passport privilege was suffering
so many abuses at the hands of women
most of them well-meaning enough, that
the necessity for the new restrictions
was fairly forced on the government.
The desire OF wives, mothers and sweet
hearts to follow their loved ones over

there has been the problem of the Young

qualified to blossom into "Red Cross

happen to be the relatives of men in

its action not only on the restrictions
that Great Britain found itself forced to

CURRENT COMMENT
A "Dig" at the Lawyers.

Oae Of the strongest editorials pub-
lished in Vermont newspaper in a long
time appears in the Burlington Clipper
under the title, "Burlington's Menace. .
The text is found in the slate which has
been presented by The Free Press, with
one lawyer of the city for governor, three
more for state senators, and one for rep.
resentative in the legislature. The Clip.
per points out the weakness in the poI.
icy OF pushing so many lawyers into pub.
Z; office and ignoring the business men
who can accomplish things expeditiously
and 1t names 20 business men to whom it
would be willing to entrust important
questions which are always before the
legislature, like the following; Employ
ment of convicts, management Of state
institutions, audit system for state Off
Gals, buying supplies, water power
rights, regulation of automobile traffic,
construction of highways. The Clipper
wants to know whose Judgment ia best
about these questions, a lawyer or q
good, sound business man. The answer
Is easy for any man who has been in ac-
tive business affairs mad has had bust.
ness relations with lawyers. AS a class
they are slow in action and fettered by a
red tape which they call precedent. Our
public and legislative life is top-heavy
with lawyers. We need more live bust.
ness men with initiative in public affairs
in order to make progress, but the trou-
BILE is that too many of the men of this
class are absorbed in private affairs, and
it is sacrifice for them to take public
office, while that is just what the lawyer
is looking for.-Brattleboro Reformer.

reserve of equipment and munitions fol
the new effort There is the frenzy OF
desperation back of this new movement
because of the realization that the Unit
ed States is going to prove the turning
factor In the war unless Germany can
get the decision before the full force of
American strength is felt. Therefore, it
is to be expected that the present opera
tions will be carried out with grim deter
mination, and probably attended by
great losses on both sides.
Against the determination there will
be purpose fully as grim and fully as
determined. The French are really fight
ing with their backs to the wall of Paris.
The British realize full well that the de.
feat of the allies in their efforts to pre-.
vent the foe from reaching Paris would
react strongly against London itself,
psychologically if not from military
standpoint, The Americans at home and
abroad, while not embattled as are the
French or the British, appreciate the
fact that the freedom of the world would
be endangered by German success. Hence
the three allies, shoulder to shoulder,
and aided by smaller nations, are likely
to meet the foe stoutly. Moreover, there
will be the greater courage because of
the growing confidence felt with the ac-
QUESTION Of American troops and equip
ment in large numbers and in huge guam
titles, respectively. The morale of the
allies during the past few months has,
too, been strengthened immeasurably as
blow after blow of the enemy was par.
ried and more recently by the continued
success of localized efforts on their own
part.
So, while viewing the new German
drive with all the seriousness that it un
doubtedly deserves, the allies will never
theless maintain a large measure of con
fidence in the ability of their men to
stem the tide before irreparable damage
shall be done. We in the United States |
will naturally be anxious for the well |
fare of the American army now in the
thick Of the battle but we also should
repose confidence in the skill of General
Foch and the strength of the armies op.
posing the enemy.

The young women of Vermont have a
chance to do service for their country by
enlisting in the nurses reserve which is
being formed in the United States, the
members of which will take up the posi-
tions vacated by the Red Cross nurses
who have gone abroad. This nurses re-
serve will be recruited from the entire
country, the apportionment being made
according to population No doubt a
large number of young women have been
DESTROYS of getting into some active oe.
cupation which would count in solving
the governments problem and aid in
winning the war. They now are as
sured of this chance through the nurses
reserve. The hospitals of the country
are being hard hit by the designations of
those who have enlisted in Red Cross

who are willing to enter into the work
wholeheartedly. There is fine oppor
