WHY ARE THEY THERE?

That the withdrawal OF the American

ternplated just At present Is the state
merit OF Major General Henry T. Allen.

Allen gives no reason why our soldiers

been advanced from any source.
To bring these troops home. would

Germany is supposed TO be paying for
their maintenance. but IS not doing SO.
On her agreement 10 pay for keeping
the army OF occupation. Germany now
owes this nation 1922 $40 1851 and the
prospects Of payment are not brilliant.

Secretary Baker says that the WAY de-
partment IS gradually reducing the
number by failing 10 MI vacancies

ESCAPING ALIVE OR DEAD

An unusual feature OF 4 lynchinS bee.

castle. Virginia Usually, the mob
nyerpowers the officers and lynchcs the
prisoner, the officers escape with the
prisoner 70 q safe place. OF there is a
battle between officers dnd mob in
which members OF the mob are killed.
b.. IN the FfncaSGs case. the mob at
tackled the officers and in the confusion
the prisoner escaped.
This is a miscarriage OF justice, bu,
no more so than when the prisoner Is
killed by the mob. When man has
been properly arrested b. an officer or
tho law, and Is killed by mob before
the law can act upon the charge against
him, no escapes the law just as surely
a. when he escapes alive A mob kill
