kEAINE could harness 100000
AVE- horsepower in the Bay Of
Fundy. The plan approved by voters
and scientific experts, calls for one
hundred millions. Power enough
produced to supply the whole of
New England, and ten times one
hundred millions would not equal the
value of such power.
IN waterpower and the electric

exhausted Europe, water power and
electricity will do now, following the
infinitely greater war, just ended.

ton to the wealth of the world,
were much bigger than all the debts
of the last big war combined"
For an ounce of pessimism con
corning the worlds future now.
there was a ton of pessimism then.
Wise men and financiers declared
that the world was bankrupt, could
not possibly carry and settle such
load of debts.
Then came steam, with its pros
perity undreamed of, and the worlds
debt became a joke.
What steam did after the Water
loo and Napoleon, electricity and
water power will do after the late
great war and the former Kaiser
Wilhelm.

I Asst Saturday this little message
IL was sent. "Relieve staff officer
until further notice"
That order from Major General
Ernest Kinds, referring to Mitchell
who dared to tell about our imcom-
pctent air service, relieves Mitchell
from active duty in the United States
army.
Possibly General Kinds, or who.
ever told him to send the message,
imagines that relieve staff officer
until further orders is the end Of
that affair. But it isn't.
That policy carried too far might
"relieve" a considerable number Of
officials in the Republican party

France over the Dreyfus case and

ATTACKING white woman. The
sheriff says the negro confessed, and
adds that he did not recognize any Of
his neighbors in the mob that took

This incident of our civilization"
calls for no special notice." for il is
not unusual. But n foreigner might
ask:
"Why did they BURN him? Did
they do it to brighten others? Or
did their frame of mind and mob
