OUR VIGILANTES.

Citizens hefe have within the past lew days taken into their own hands several such cases as seemed to reflect disloyalty, or at least seemed to imply lack of a proper interest in the America^ cause In the war. Volunteers for this purpose will become more numerous, action against suspected offender s will become more drastic and ther% will be a sterner demand that •veryone's patriotism be so manifested that there can be no mistaking its inclination.

In the cajie of Mr. Sehuhardt, an east side grocer, the "misunderstanding" of his attitude tqwards the war he &t'tributedi to "grudge statements by a clerk who was slated for discharge. In the case of Mr. EeCkmeyer. who had a sign hanging ia his place discouraging "all war talk,*' his alibi was that the •ign was hung there prior to the entrance of the United States in the conflict.

At this juncture there must be no inhibition against war talk. It is something we must have, and a lot of it. We cannot have too. much "war talk," that is if it is the right sort, and the spontaneous appearance of vigilantes implies that that is the kind it is going ,U be. or there won't be any.

Everyone in Terre Haute, and everywhere else, this week is urged to eat a potato and then eat more potatoes. In fact, to cultivate such a taste for them that potatoes will supplant bread in our diet to a large extent.

The potato, or solanum tuberosum, is an anomaly among edible vegetables in that it is neither a fruit, a bud nor a root, but just a tuber. It is a "swelling of an underground branch," buj why it acts that way, what causes the branch to swell and become a "spud" is still ft mystery. Scientists are not agreed, but the prevailing opinion is that "it is the presence of a fungus, Fusarium solani, which, growing in the underground shoots, irriUUas them and causes them to swell."

Historically, It is a newcomer among table staples. By no means a parvenu, since it has an Aztec or Incft ancestry of countless generations, it is but a recent addition to the diet of most of the world. Contrary to the popular belief, it is probably not a native»of Xorth America. The vegetable that Sir Walter Raleigh took back to England from Virginia has been shown, beyond much doubt, .to have been the sweet potato—a bird of very different plumage.

TJtie potato emerges into modern history with the Spanish conquest of Perjj. It is mentioned in The Cronica de f»ru of Pedro Cieca, published in 1563, who calls it the "battata," or "papa." It had been found growing wild in, the Andes and was also cultivated by the Peruvians. The monk, ITieronymus Cardanifs, took it to Spain. It tvas carried thence to Italy, then to Belgium and so to England. Foi* many decades it was merely a botanical curiosity, although the royal society urged its cultivation in 1663. Yet the learned Chabraeus, writing in 1666, calls it one of the "plantae malignae et venenatae."

Its general use for food began only a bit more than a century ago, Ireland taking the lead in Europe in accepting it. Since then its progress has been rapid and world-wide, until nowthe average civilized man re-

SPEAK UP.

Who among tne "patriotic citizens of German birth or descent in this country will take the lead in sounding a clear note of Americanism at this critical tinys? Prof. Heller and Hermann Hagedorn have urged a full and free expression of loyalty from every person of Teutonic ancestry, with appropriate deeds to back the Words. But leadership is necessary.

Every community where there is a considerable German element should be alive to the importance of this matter. The time for passive loyalty is past. Those who are not actively for the United States in this war are likely to And themselves classed as against it. Silent patriotism is but little better than sullen pro-Germanism.

Who will take the lead in bringing these facts home to the German-Amer-icans? The opportunity is ripo for men of broad vision and big hearts. Mere lip-service will not do. Outward manifestations of patriotism, such as buying Liberty, bonds while secretly cursing the government, are a mockery.

every comer. There was no difficulty in getting able and active leaders among the Germans for the so-called neutrality and embargo leagues, fchen Bernstorff's propaganda was most active in this country. Cannot the! patriotic Germans produce something to offset the work and w:pe out the| memory of these blatherskites?

They suggest that if Americans would only think of sauerkraut in American1 terms, the troubles of the dealers might come to an end. But the

sourcabbage would scarcely solve the problem. The dealers' own proposal that their product be called "liberty cabbage" 6r "pickled vegetable" is scarcely more promising.

It looks rather hopeless. Many will believe, of course, that sauerkraut's German name is not the chief objection to it after all and that its Americanization should go further than changing its name. Be that as it may. here is aThance to organize something like a new slogan conre-st. Who Willi coin a palatable Yankee name for the Germans' sour cabbage?

TEBRE HAUTE TRIBUNE. 1.

HERE IS A PUZZLE.

A Tribune reader wants to know what, during the present stress of events, is going to become of sauerkraut? That is some problem. Handicapped in the race for popular favor by the Teutonic flavor of its name, kraut has become something of a drug on the marker People who used to like it and buy It and boast of it are now letting it alone. Their noses go up, not at the smell 6t the product, but at the thought of spending good American money for a food branded with such a Prussian names.

The case of kraut was laid before the federal food board at New York the other day. Consumption of sauerkraut, it was claimed, has fallen off 75 per event since, the United States entered the war and there ia enough kraut now in stock and in large part unsalable to feed the German army. Kraut dealers feel they have a grievance against somebody, but are iot quite certain whom.

The view generally taken by the press is that the cabinet changes are a precursor to the downfall of the Terauchi ministry. Although the illness of Foreign Minister Motoiio presented a strong reason for his retirement it Is believed In some quarters that his resignation was due primarily to a difference of views, regarding military action in Siberia, which he is understood to favor. When the United States was invited by Japan to give advices and questioned the wisdom of the entrance into Russia of a Japanese army Japanese statesmen decided to postpone action until the allies unanimously advocated intervention.
