DISTRICT COURT TO
START GRIND TODAY

With Hon. y. T.. Mcneil as pre-
siding judge, the section OF the spe-
cial criminal docket OF district court,
which was interrupted by the draft
and consequent necessity OF filling
out questIonnaires. will start again
today. There are 40 cases on the
docket FOR this continuation.
Those scheduled to come up today
are two OF grand larceny and one
each OF forgery and murder. Ed
Mcpherson and Allan Crockett are
the ones who will have to face the
jury on charges OF grand larceny.
While George L. Arras will tell how
he came to sign the other man $
name to a check.
Glen Jenkins and Frank Wright
are the men charged with murder
1t is hardly expected that these four
cases can be completed today. it
being the experience that in most
courts a murder trial takes con.
siderable more time than has ap-
parently been allotted to this one on
the calendar.
For tomorrow, one finds one
charge each OF conjoint robbery and
forgery and two of burglary. NJ. A.
Davis and Earl WINERY are charges
with the conjoint robbery. while O.
\. Sexton will tell all about how he
came to commit a forgery Allen
Crockett. according to informations
on file, seems TO have made burg
larry his favorite avocation. At any
rate, he will face two charges on
that score. His trial on the assault
with intent to kill William ThomDson
a fellow prisoner, by cutting his
throat, is set for the Dext regular
term OF district court

AMERICA AND ENGLAND
BY GIDEON HOE
Of the XIaiIantes.

Chester M. Wright. member Of the
New York Typographical union, and
managing editor Of the American Al
lance for Labor and Democracy, at
present In Europe as one of the rep
resentatives of labor who went abroad
recently to reassure our allies of our
temper and sentiment in the war, has
been writing some very Interesting re-
ports of his present experiences.
The following paragraphs are illumi-
mating. They show the rapid growth
Of better understanding and warmer
fellowship between the English and
American free peoples:
"The English look to America as
to brothers; they look upon Ameri-
cans with affection. And their ad-
miration for our president knows no
bounds. When they hear the splendid
story Of our trade union movement and
its firm position they know that Amer
lea will make good. Having made
mistakes themselves, they know we
have made them, too, and will make
more. They understand us better
than we have imagined.
"Here are two indications of the
British regard for America. The
American mission visited Warwick to
be guests for a day at the historic
CASTLE built in the thirteenth century.
America is as mythical to the humble
folk of Warwick town as Warwick is
to most Americans. But the mayor
ordered the American flag flown dur
ing our visit. 1t was the first time an
American flag had ever flown to the
breeze in Warwick. Last night / Wis.,
tied a theater-the Adelphia. A musi-
cal comedy was on the boards. Two
thirds Of the chorus costumes con-
tanned the American colors. There
were Uncle Sans and American cow
boys and Goddesses of Liberty. The
theaters have been doing this since
we came into the war. They overlook
no way here of showing affection for
America. America must overlook no
way Of making good!
"We were on the sea on April @. the
anniversary of our entry into the war.
The event was celebrated, and those
who spoke most feelIngly for America
were Canadian and British soldiers.
"The same love for democracy and
freedom that fires America and thrills
her people inspires and thrills the peo-
Pile of England. As many as must
will die for the cause. The Hun can
never win. Civilization must and will
be saved. The free people Of the
world are bound in a new and indis.
soluble unity"
The Ordway new era., 1918-06-28

diers is being carried on Jointly by the
French government and the American
Red Cross. There are between fifty
and sixty schools OF various kinds for
this work. The Red Cross has provid-
ed more than six hundred mutilated
soldiers with artificial legs of the best
type, and has established a factory
near Paris where artificial limbs are
manufactured. BY arranging for con-
sultation between the surgeon and the
manufacturer, the Red Cross has been
able to secure the best possible treat
ment for each case.
With the wanton destruction Of
homes by the German army and the
uprOoting of the population in the dew
astated regions the home as an in
stitution in France is in peril. Real
izing this condition, the Red Cross is
endeavoring to keep the soldiers
homes intact; to find homes for the
outcast children who have neither
homes nor parents, and to help the
refugees and repatries to find a place
to live until they shall be able to re-
build their homes.
Cross in France, as far as helping to
win the war goes. is the care Of the
families of the French soldiers. The
Red Cross is giving to the needy fam
lilies of these French soldiers supplies
and money, according to their needs.
when the German army invaded
France, hundreds of thousands of
French people were driven from their
homes and are now scattered through
out the republic. These people are
known as refugees. The number has
increased, of course, for various rea-
sons until now there are more than l.
100000, embracing all classes and ages,
except able-bodied men. There are ap-
proximately 100000 refugees in Paris
alone.
"The housing of these people is one
of the greatest problems of the French
government. The American Red Cross
is cooperating with the French govern
ment in this work."

COMFORT TO GERMANY
BY ROBERT ADGER BOWEN
of the viQllantes.

1t has been cause for amaZement
mingled with a sharp regret that, dur
ing the dark days of the German drive
against the British lines in Flanders,
following that upon the British lines
in Picardy, there should have broken
out In press and public alike that mar
row and warped antipathy toward
England, which if 1t ever was other
than ungenerous and groundless, sure
ly the debt we of America owe Great
Britain today should have silenced
into n humiliated but very sincere 10y
atty. On the contrary, there has been
far too evident a disposition to attack
England. Almost, 1t has seemed, the
disposition In the present instance has
been based on fear that was akin
to panic. The fighting quality of the
British has been openly belittled, and
this In the face of splendid resist
ance against all but overwhelming
odds that was being exemplified even
as these false accusations were made.
And this. 1t may be added, in the face
of all that history teaches since the
days of Alfred the Great to the pres
ent years of this most momentOus of
wars.
Such prejudice in us Of Anglo-Saxon
lineage is at any time unworthy of
our own best traditions. Today 1t is
contemplate. If the echo of 1t has
reached Germany-and we may be
sure It has-it is music to the ears of
those who, however they may have
looked upon England before this war,
have learned to their cost that they
can prevail against her only by force
of superior numbers and the insensate
power of modern artillery-whose hat
red of her has become tInged by
deadly fear which is to be measured
by the horrible price Germany is will
ing to pay for the hope of victory.
For those of us in this AnglO-Saxon
country whose heritage is British to
seek to defame England is truly
graceless act. 1t smacks not Of supe-
rior merit upon our own part but of
something very different. At least. let
us reserve our caustic criticism of her
until in this war we have done what
may be compared with what Britain
has so nobly done.

Saved His comrade.

A few months ago an America sea-
man who was swimming In tropical
waters was attacked by school of
sharks and his leg was bitten off. The
fins of four other sharks were visible
near by and 1t seemed certain that the
unfortunate sailor would soon be torn
to pieces, when Wallace Odell Prater,
n machinist. dived into the blood
stained water and brought the wound
ed man safely to the ship. In recos-
milton of this rare act of bravery Pra-
ter was awarded gold life-saving
medal by the secretary of the treas
ury. He lives in Stafford, Kan.

KIND TO PRIs0NERs-GUILN1
German Women Warned That They
Will Be Punished for Lack
Of self-Respeet."

Women, even the miraculous Ger
man superwomen, are incorrigible,
observes writer in the Literary Di-
gest. The German government has
just discovered to its horror that
Gretchen, in common with all the
daughters Of Eve. is not insensible
to the charms of well favored man,
and, If given the opportunity. even
she is disposed to flirt. The Franken-
furter Zietung Indignantly writes:
Female inhabitants of houses ad-
jacent to camps of officer prisoners
of war have communication with the
imprisoned officers, and even throw
them things. Thanks, however, to the
sharp lookout kept by the authorities,
the attempts In each case were frus-
trated. The guilty persons, who be-
long to all classes of society and are
of various ages. were discovered.
while the police authorities have
hitherto considered sharp reprimands
as sufficient warnings, In the belief
that such unconsidered acts were due
to foolish desire for sensation, In
future such conduct will be visited
by very severe legal penalties and
public exposure. These penalties will
furthermore be imposed without dis
elimination on all who may render
themselves guilty OF such lack of self
respect" NV.
