would have occupied had he
camped down at the capital in
the dark days of the Civil war
and tried to influence congress
to destroy the legitimate au-
thority of President Lincoln.
But, though defeated for the
presidency, Douglas would not
stoop to such foul tactics and
upheld his successful rival un-
til he died.
Or supposing Grover Cleve-
land had descended upon
Washington at the time Roose-
velt was dallying for five
months with the great Pennsyl-
vania coal strike before taking
any action, and had tried to in
duce congress to speed him
up" a bit. We all know what
sulphurous outbursts of wrath
would have been him. But
Cleveland could not be imagin-
ed in such a role.
Colonel Roosevelt knows-or
should know-the difficulties
of a President of the United
States, although by compari-
son with those with which Mr..
Wilson must cope his were
puny, negligible and unimport-
ant. Still he has been chief eX-
ecutive of this country. Why
cannot he now act the part of
decent man and a good Am
erican?-Boston Post.

HOLLAND MINISTER
RAPS ISOLATION
Says Policy OF America ana Britain
Makes Netherlands Unsympa-
thctic.

2S.-"I am quite sure the present
policy of America and Britain of iso-
latinG Holland is bad one" de-
Clared Marie Willem Frederik Treub.
Netherlands minister or finance. in
discussing his country's position with
the correspondent of the United
Press Mr.. Theub is on of the pill
lars of the present extra parliament
airy liberal cabinet, of which he has
been termed the strong man on ac-
count of his vigorous personality,
resolute policy and restless activity.
which give him far-reaching influ-
ence in the counsels of the nation.
As regards the question of the
Netherlands ships that nave SO long
been lying i'm American ports, the
minister was hopeful that an arrange.
ment might even yet be reached.
4 can understand how America
and the allies look at it, ne contin-
ued. IF Holland gets less grain ano
fodder she will be obliged to slaugh-
ter her cattle they aryu-. we do
not want the central powers to be
supplied with cattle. but the main
thing we want to stop going to Ger
many is fat, and in sucn circumstan-
ces Holland will be unabie TO send so
much of that
4 understand that reasoning, but
what is forgotten is that this will re-
suit in our own people being under
fed, and that relations between HoI-
land and the allies and america Will
be somewhat unsympath-tIc. If we
are obliged to still more reduce our
ration, that will have a very bad e.
feet. Germans are manageable. but
our people are of a different nature
If they get hungry they arc very diff
ficult to manage. I am not thinking
Of a revolution, but it would be likely
to result in all sorts of riots and diff
ficulties.

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomeS all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim-
pies, rashes, bIackheads, in most cases
give way TO zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only Csc; an extra
large bottle, S100. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

HE HAS THE RESULTS

- ECRETARY BAKER in
81 his statement to the SEN
ate committee yesterday
presented facts that cannot
fail to impress any unbiased
mind. He recites conditions
and accomplishments that ut
terly rout the charge that the
war department has broken
down in every branch. The
department is making good
hnd common fairness calls for a
square deal.
If America wants to win the
war the people must expect to
work and fight with loyalty
hnd zeal. They must not ex-
pect perfection in the work of
the government when conditi-
ons are such that perfect SER
Vice cannot be given. They
cannot help by whining and
hagging at those invested with
authority and working under a
desperate strain to meet the
obligations upon them.

SUdged by accomplishments

THEY KNOW

~ HE wonderful talks by
VI Major Edwards and Cap
tain Cook given here
Yesterday verify by first hand
testimony some of the main fea-
lures involved. The fiendish-
ness of the Teuton military
policy was revealed in a man
ner that confirms the worst re-
ports on that subject. The
Hun is all he has been painted.
We have it from men who have
been in the game, men who
have seen their comrades who
have been manned, men who
have seen the women and chill
dren of France and Belgium
and heard their stories. Fiend-
Ishness is the policy of the Ger
man government. 1t brands
that government is unfit to rule. /
There can be no peace with /
that country until it has been |
defeated. 1t is going to be
whipped as surely as the sun
shines if the allies but stay at /
the task long enough. The
force is available to crush the
kaiser. Al that is needed is
unity and determination. Pro-
paganda and dissension are
the foes we must look out for.
The German can never beat us
but like Russia we may do it
for them if we are not alert.

MAPS MADE
ON BATTLEFIELDS
Lithographers and Press Carried on
Big Truck

With the American Forces in
France, Oct. 27.-(Co1Tespondence of
the Associated Press.)-The first time
in any war battlefield maps have
been printed literally within sound of
the roar of the big guns at the front.
A portable printing press for map
making is Cne of the many outcomes
of the war and it is an American in
vention. and has been in actual use
behind the lines Of the American
armies in France.
The press was carried upon large
truck and is moved from place to
place with the corps headquarters.
Accompanying the map-making de-
partment of each corps are expert
photographers and in the event of q
rush ordec for map of certain ter
ritory, perhaps for a printed outline
of ground being fought for at that
very moment, it was possible for the
American map makers to turn out q
map about two feet square in less
than twelve hours.
The designs were copied from maps
on larger scale, complete set of
these being carried by each corps
printing outfit. When a rush or spe-
cial order was received from the
front usually small map was turn
ed out, this being followed by map
on a larger scale if needed.
Owing t. the portable printing
press invention it is now possible
for soldiers in the front lines to be
supplied with maps prepared and
printed the same day, almost within
range of the heavy guns of the
enemy. In addition to the portable
lnap-making detachments the Ameri.
can army has an immense plant to
print the larger and more detailed
maps of all parts Of France, OF more
particularly the fighting ground az
the American advanced.
