.Squatter Rebel
To Set Up Empire

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.A new EN-
pire is about to be born right in
front Of Chicago. Capt. George Wei
lington Streeter announced Thursday
that on September 8 he would issue
a declaration proclaiming the indie
pendence Of the District Of Lake
Michigan He has appointed w. H.
Niles military governor and will main
tain independence by armed force.
Conforming to the niceties Of dip
Iomatic correspondence between ma
tions, "Governor" Niles has written
to President Wilson advising him Of
the impending birth Of the new EN-
pire.
Captain Stieeter held despotic
sway over a large strip Of territory
fronting Lake Michigan for more
than twenty years. He "squatted" on
the land when it was d marsh and
valueless, Time brought the city to
the lake front and the. land Is worth
millions. The original owners re-
claimed ii from the captain with the
aid Of deputy marshals. Several
gun battles were fought before the
captain was ousted.
Former service men are to be re-
cruited to maintain the independence
Of the District" according to Cap
tain Streeter's announcement. He
wrote the commanding officer Of the
American Legion in Washington for
the support Of the organization, say
ing:
"Meet me at the premises in uni
form, armed and carrying flag and
help to end by force of arms the
reasonable acts of judges elected to
the courts for the past twenty years,
or stand us up against wall before
a firing squad. We no longer desire
to live under the rule Of anarchy of
the courts and police.
District Attorney Clyne said he
would "call the captain in and find
out what it was all about"

President Burton declared that "a
new emphasis on the old-fashioned
demand for accuracy" is desirable.
1--WE must teach our boys and girls
that it is not haphazard world in
which they live. We must see that
this question of accuracy goes deep
down into the fibre of our national
life. The great question is not SO
much what you teach as how you
teach it.
Nine minds out of ten accept pol
ish passively Only one in ten sensi-

NEW YORK. Aug. l6. Behind

/ the worst criminal in the A. E. f.
will spend the rest Of his mortal days.
Heavily irianacled, Private John
Mosher is speeding toward the Fed
eral penitentiary to serve d ninety
nine-year sentence imposed by an
army court-martial for a series Of
capital crimes.
Was Persistent offender.
Neither army discipline nor fear de-
tered Mosher from acquiring the
reputation Of being the "bad man.
Of the expeditionary forces.
He caused the army constant trou-
bic until he was finally apprehended
and given what Is tantamount to a life
sentence. His military career has
largely been spent in guard houses
and "brigs.' Daring and clever at
evading restraint, ne has escaped
fro mhis jailers many times, only to
be recaptured.
He arrived here under double
guard on the transport Pocahontas
Thursday and will be constantly
watched until the steel doors Of Leav-
enworth close him from the outer
world.
Compilation Of Mosher's record,
which reads like that of dime novel
villain, began before the war when
he emerged from Western peni-
Tertiary and enlisted in Denver, con-
cealing his criminal past.
Thereafter it was a fair-sized job
for one army clerk to keep track of
his entrance to and exits from guard
houses and military prisons.
