MENTALITY DIFFERENT
German Professor Writes Plain Truths
in the Taqeblatt.

1.-THE reason why the whole world
rose up against Prussia and Germany
and not against England is plain to
everyone who has observed the Prus-
sian policy In Poland and the Prus-
sian administration in Alsace," asserts
Professor F. w. Forester, Of the Uni
yersity of Munich, writing in the
Tageblatt.
England practiced much might, to
be sure, but it has also given fthe
world freedom and Justice" he added.
"She succeeded in reconcilins the
Beers whereas we were unable in for
ty years to regain the sympathies of
the Alsatians who are German to the
core. That speaks volumes.
"The isolation of Germany from Ha-
que conferences is irrefutable proof in
dominating circles that Germany is
possessed Of different mentality than
the rest Of the world"
He charges Germany with having
in the exchange of the Versailles notes
on the question of guilt and states
that many one-sided accusations
might have been combated more ef-
fectively If Germany had not again
endeavored to defend untenable posi-
tions with rank sophistries.

THE TOMB OF PETERSON
Tragedy OF a Man Who Died Alo9
Among Snowdrifts.

Emanuel Peterson, a HUDSON Bay
company trapper, fell asleep In ms
lonely cabin in the northern wilder
ness near Fond du Lac, twelve months
ago, says Katoon letter. He lies to-
day just as he fell asleep, in his bunk
with his blankets tucked around him.
The wolves that howl about his shack
and the roaring bliZZardS that pile the
winter SHOWS to the clapboard roof will
never awaken him from his slumber.
There he will continue to sleep. posi-
bly, forever. His old log cabin, which
he built himself, has become his maus-
oleum. A sheet of paper tackled on the
door bears his epitaph, written in Eng
lish, French, Cree and Chipeyn:
This is the grave Of Emanuel Peter
son. Let no man disturb it,,
Constable NJ. Chappins Of the Royal
Northwest mounted police travelled
1000 miles through snow and storm ~
write that epitaph. His return to Sas-
katoon after a three months journey,
is the last chapter of the tale. {.
News that a man lay dead in cabin
somewhere north Of Lake Athabasca,
trickled down out CT the frozen north
to Edmonton last February. The man
had been dead nine months. There was
suspicion that he might have been
murdered. Chappins was assigned IL
make an investigation. 1t is such work
as this that has built the heroic con-
ditions of Canada's corps of scarlet
riders.
He set out from Prince Albert. a
branch line of one of the transconti-
mental railways took him beyond the
rich regions of farms to the northern
end Of the steel highway at Big River
He outfitted with a sled and dog team
at Isle a la Crosse and with an Indian
guide struck into the wilderness. The
thermometer registered 80 degrees be-
low zero. The snow was two feet deep
At Cree lake the snow was four fee
deep and the mercury stood above 81
degrees below. Packs of gray wolves
hung on his trail. They killed two C
his dogs in an attack on his camp. HI
killed them every day by the dozen
This. Chappins believes, saved his life
for the half-starvcd. desperate brute:
toasted on the carcasses of their deaf
companions.
A little farther on, his Indian guid
turned back. The frozen desolatiol
that lay ahead struck him with pani
: terror. Chappins went on alone. III
drove ahead two days in the teeth of
blizzard. His provisions ran low. Fl
lived on short rations of pemmican an
tea At TIE silver camp at DarnieT h
obtained fresh supplies and neN
guide and pressed on to the Hudso
Bay post at Fond du Lac.
t He found Peterson's body perfect
| preserved in the cold, dry air. Their
, were no signs OF violence. Peterson
= diary lay open on table. The last ell
., try. made March 90 1918, read:
} "a am very sick. 1t would be hell
I should die out here among the snow
= drifts all alone"

cARRANzA YIELDS TO SENSE.
Mexican President Now Ready T
Recognize Foreign Demands.

Important concessions have been
made by President Carranza in issu-
ing a decree amending the law on
claims. Briefly they are as follows:
Claims for damages may be present.
ed not only for losses during the recent
two revolutions ending with the install
lation of the present government on
May 1, 1917, but for those sustained
since then in various regions where
rcvolts are still smoldering.
Damages by rebels or outlaws to per-
son or property subject to claims when
such damage is found to be the result
of negligence on the part Of constitut-
ed authority.
A commission on indemnification
will admit any means of proof human
ly reasonable" The claims commits
sion can consider all cases, but the
president has the right to arrange con-
rentions with any foreign power for
mixed commission to handle claims
of citizens of that power. Claims by
railroad companies and other public
utilities taken over by the govern
ment may be arranged either by the
Federal claims commission or by
agreement between the companies and
the secretary of the treasury The
claims resulting from death or injury
will be paid Immediately upon ap-
proval by the president.
The Federal Claims commission will
cease receiving claims when at the end
of three months no claim has been pre-
sented, being dissolved when it finishes
consideration of cases already filed.
Claims not acted upon may be pre-
sented to the treasury department if
the claimant chooses the administrative
instead of the diplomatic method.
The most important amendment 1t Is
considered,'is that relative to the pres
ident's power to arrange conventions
for mixed commissions with foreign
powers.

PRESIDENT URGES ECONOMY
Sound Advice as to How to Restort
Normal Economic Conditions.

Sound Advice as to How to Restore
Normal Economic Conditions.
Here is President Wilson's Labor
Day message:
1 am encouraged and gratiied by the
progress which is being made in con-
trolling the cost of living. The sup
port of the movement is widespread
and l confidently look for substantial
results, although / must counsel pa
tience as we'll as vigilance. because
such results will not come instantly or
without team work.
Let me again emphasize my appeal
to every citizen of the country to con-
tinue to give his personal support In
the matter and to make it as active as
possible. Let him not only refrain
from doing anything which at the mp
ment will tend to increase the cost pf
living, but let him do all in his power
to increase the production; and, fur
ther than that, let him at the same
time himself carefully economize in
the matter of consumption. BY COM
mon action in this direction we shall
overcome a danger greater than the
danger of war. We will hold steady a
situation which is fraught with possl-
rbilities of hardship and suffering to a
large part of our population; we Yl,i
enable the processes of production. y.
overtake the processes Of consunip-
ton; and we will speed the restoratib,.
Of an adequate purchasing power for
wages.
am particularly gratified at the
support which the governments policy
has received from the representatives
of organized labor, and earnestly
hope that the workers generally Will
emphatically indorse the position OF
their leaders and thereby move with
the government instead Of against it in
the solution of this greatest domestic
problem.
1 am calling for as early date as
practicable q conference in which the
authoritative representatives of labor
and of those who direct labor will dis
cuss fundamental means or lettering
the whole relationship of capital ana
labor and putting the; whole question
,of wages sipGn another footing. 4

The Surrender Of Jsrusalem.-The
city of Jerusalem was really surren-
dcred to the British by an Ameri-
Iean photographer. acting for sStife
Arab mayor, according TO an account
Of the affair told by Capt. Wendell
Cleveland, a former resident Of New
Wilmington, who recently returned
from Egypt, where he had served as
Red Cross Worker fff 3;
After weeks of bombardment Cap
tain Cleveland said. the Turks had de-
cided to ..urrender. The mayor httched
a sorry looking team Of dpnkeys to
a carriage, raised the white flag and
started out of. the city gates to find
the British. On the way he eneounr.
tered the American photographer and
asked him to ride with him, Followed
by many of the citys' people. the pro-
.cession continued until two British
soldiers halted them, whereupon the
American informed the "Tommies",
that he had the honor OF surrendertng
the keys of the city TO the British
government and asked the schtyy.sato
lead the way to the British generals
camp. sse'Nats-
Tho nearest British general rode
into the city and postedsa D notice. that
it was under the protection of the
--'.,sh government. Two days later
General Allenhy rode triumphnntly
into Jerusalem and the news Of the
surrender was given to the world.

THE EVIL OF LAZlNESS
Marshall Thinks That People Can End
Trouble by Work.

Marshall last Monday in the course of
n discussion of the cost of living,
strikes, etc. with the Washington COR
: respondent of the Chicago Tribune.
Vice President Marshall is further
quoted as saying:
How sperd my salary is nobody's
business save my wife's. Ii 1 should
strike for more money upon the theory
that my services are worth more than
l am receiving, how i spend my salary
is nobody's business, but should
strike on the ground Of the high cost
of living. then justice would demand
that 1 show how | have spent my sal

termine whether it is the high cost OF
living or the high cost Of high living
that ails NEE.
"Cne of the old ideasCcf the Repuo-
lie was that the limit of striving for
success was the limit of capacity and
endurance. The real evil which we are
confroting today is the high cost OF

GREATEST OF The GREEKS
PrsmisrN v.ni.sIos Thoroughly Under
stands Balkan Question.

1, Not so conspicuous at the peace
conference while the treaty with Ger
many focused tho worlds attention
but. emerging into the limelight now
that Balkan problems are in the fore
front, is Premier Venizelos of Greece
The career Of this Greek Clemen-
ceau," reckoned among the foremost
statesmen of Europe, is/ described IN
O bulletin from the National Geogra-
phic Society, based on q communities
t!on from George Higgins Moses, as
follows:
"Eleutherois ysnizelos, is o Greek
of the GreelssSfwith long line Of dis
tinguished Hellenic ancestry. Educat-
led at the University of Athens and in
Switzerland, he established himself
as an attorney In Crete. and was ae-
| tiye in the revolution movements which
brought on the Greco Turkish war OF
l1SsT. :
"Upon the establishment of the high
commissioners regime in Crete. Veni-
aelos and Prince George were not in
accord. and the princes withdrawal
from the island followed-ap incident
which led the court party In Athens
to regard venizelos fs an arch-revo-
lutionary and TO render his task the
more difficult. i f.t
~The Greek people. however, have
never. wavered in their isspport OF hizn
He is their Idol and he 1ustihed their
idolatry. Summoned to the prime
ministry much earlier than he had be-
lieved himself ready for such power,
and knowing full well that The owned
his preferment in large measure to
the wishes Of the old political leaders,
who had conceived the notion Of chok-
ing him to death with power, he con-
founded his enemies, amazed his
friends, and justified all the fond
hopes OF the people. who regarded him
as their future and who have never
ceased to hail him as the savior OF
Hellenism.
"His ministry was forced to appeal
to the electorate--once by his own
wish to test Greek public opinion and
once because the constitutional limit
had run against his government. In
each case he was swept back into Office
with a majority of cumbersome pro-
portions-and he has rightly counted
himself as man with a mandate to
reorganize Greece.
Under his guidance the constitution
has been revised. the chamber has
been liberated and set in the way of
constructive legislation, while the
electorate has been given wider
privilege of choice of their represen-
tatives. The courts have been given
tenure and removed from political con-
Etrol.
"The ministries have been re-organ-
lied and purged and the civil service
has been set upon a merit basis.
Agriculture and commerce have been
taken under the charge of a new min
istry. Municipalities have been grant
ed new rights and charged with new
duties, and general quickening and
efficiency have been infused into all
branches Of the administration"
