JITNEYS AND JUSTICE.

The disposition of the city council Mast night .towards the tmion men of the city and towards the Jitney men oralis the story of the late Justice i William P. McCarthy. On one historic uct-M.sion in hiss long career here as an arm of the law, he halted the contending attorneys and remarked: ,i "Gmtlemin, you can go on with your argument if ye want to. bat the mind

Wili denionstratG this to

With the jitneys gone! the traction company has completely collapsed at the task of transporting people back and forth. The faii* and logical thing to have done on the part of the city, it seems, would have been to have provided adequate street car service before the jitneys were forced off the streets. :.

The jitney men have fnclfc&ted ttiat they understand that they will have to be regelated and that they will have to pay a license The street car service is not sufficient for the town. Thousands of people wem served daily in sections of the city which are not reached by the street car lines. That is the situation. The real plaintiff in this ca^se is the public, which is footing it back and forth to work and getting there late. And this same public hopes that in the name of Shank's pony an armistice will soon be declared by the council and the Jitneys, to permit of the operation of a more efficient means of local transportation.

MARK. THESE MEN]

There are'certain newspapers'and public men who are prateing about the duty of everyone', in the war and at the same time are doing all they can to create a public suspicion that the war is not being sufficiently managed at the head. By their inuendoes and underhand attacks they are leading some citizens to believe that the' secretary of war is deficient, that the secretary of the navji is deficient, that the south is taking a predominant place in the management of the war, that partisan considerations are swaying President Wilson. T*hey wave the flag in one hand and with the Gjther seek to undermine war work or create the suspicion that all of our funds, all of our efforts, nil of our energies are being wasted through inefficiency.

They are doing the Work of the kaiser nobly,. He could ask for no better alllea. Were the conspiracy directed from Potsdam direct, it could be no more insidious nor evil. Real Americans should mark such publications. they should mark such men in public life and brand them so they can never deceive on another issut, T'

Congress Is not without the Breed At a time when the men of both parties should in decency sink their partisan differences in a common endeavor to uphold the hands of the government and furnish it every reasonable measure for strengthening the nation's en

Legislation of the utmost urgency is awaiting disposition, having been repet. *edly ^recommended' as essential. Government activities in many directions are hindered because a handful of congressmen—democrats and republicans, senators and representatives—rather hear themselves talk than see themselves work.

To none but Gerr^&ns and! pro-©ef-mans can the present spectacle in congress afford any satisfaction. To every American it is abhorrent, because it bespeaks inefficiency at the moment when every national energy and resource should be working at foil strength for the national honor.

Both in congress and outside it is essential that partisan hostility he buried. There is serious work for congress and every hour spent in political maneuver represents an opportunity lost to the cause of world- democracy. America ia passing through a. grave crisis. It behooves every citizen, as well as every member of senate and house, to remember that no battles are i?on through dissension.

There is no room in Arft^rtca'teflay for republicans or democrats, except as the words are used for purposes of identification. There is room only for Americans—in congress, as elsewhere.

TH£ PINCH HJTTER.

Only a hint has been given ^.s to where the American army in France is to be stationed, but there is enough to show that the men are going where the fighting is. The official French acceptance of Gen. Pershing's offer of men speaks of the Americans as fighting side by side with the French and British in the plains of Picardy, which means the county north and east of Paris, where Hindenburg has driven his deepest salient into the allied line.

So far as American troops have been used in contact with the enemy they have acquitted themselves well, and to their new and greater enterprise now undertaken they bring a more thorough preparation than any equal body of soldiers from! thid country ever had upon their first experience in battle. j..-

There are, according trustworthy information, about 100,000 of them, and every man a trained soldier* Herein lies justification -for the highest degree of confidence that they will acquit themselves in a manner that will reflect credit upon themselves ami their country.

Their task Is not only to strengthen the lines against th# German onslaught, but to send-a, message to Germany thati a new foe Is appearing, which must be respected and feared.

The record of trained American soldiers in every war proves that they are adequate to their task.

After saying that there weren*t any American soldiers in France, Germany announced that she had licked a lot of American soldiers. It is probable that one statement Is just as true as the other* "i

Letters From the People

Editor of the Tribune: In line with the better service pledged Mr. General Public last night by Mayor Hunter and his traction controlled council, the lone East Locust streeet "bou** was without a conductor today. But now that the jitney ordinance has been jammed down the throats of the citizens, why anything goes.

East Ens Ftestdent.

Kaiserphoid.

Editor of the Tribune:— v Sir—When the German troops departed for China in July, 1900, the emperor said: "If you come to grips with the enemy be assured no quarter will be given no prisoners will be taken. Use your weapons in such a way that for a thousand years no Chinese will look upon a,/German askance."

Since the beginning of the great world war the kaiser's armies have tried to^ carry, out such a policy in Europe.

In the cause of liberty, justice and humanity we joined the great crusade against the autocracy of central Europe. And to crush this despotism our country has made and must make great and dreadful sacrifices. But when we have by force of arms helped to make secure for the world those "inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to which all men are entitled," only the despot and tyrant Will tremble at the name American. let for a thousand years in the lands we help to free the people will look upon our flag with veneration and love they will honor the name American because in this great world crihis we preferred sacrifice to sacrilege, death to dishonor, because we refused to betray the cause of world democracy.

CEASE TEACHING GERMAN.

Evanpville -Grade Schools Are to Drop language At OncS. EVAXSVILLE, Ind., April 4.—At a special meeting of the school board of Evansville Tuesday afternoon it was decided to discontinue the teaching of German in the grade schools at once. Two weeks ago the board, by a vote of 2 to 1, decided that German in the grades would be eliminated at the next school term in September.

The motion to take this teaching of German out of the schools immediately was made by the Rev. Dr. J. U. Schneider, who two weeks ago voted against the resolution to cease teaching tlie language after September. The Rev. Mr. Schneider also made a motion that the teaching of German be stopped in the high school, but the board decided not to take the step, but to establish a department of modern languages in the high school, where French, Spanish and German will be taught, the pupils being permitted to take any language thev -wish..

Ban Put on German.

BiCKNELL, Ind., April 4.—The vigilance committee not being satisfied with ordering all German speech banished from the city under the penalty of the rope, have notified the Germans at Freelandville to hold no more meetings in that language. No German language is to go over the telephone, and all secret meetings are to be stopped. The committee says tTie German language can not be spoken in this city or county if it can prohibit it. Henry Holescher, whose saloon was closed by the committee, has offered to give his place to the Red Cross. The building may be sold, and the proceeds go to that organization.
