JMR. RAIDER'S CASE.

In face of the action of the Third Ward Civic League, anyone encouraging Mr. Everet Raider to retain his place in the city council over the wishes »f his neighbor* and fellow citizens, s certainly appears in bad grace. I Mr. Raider, despite his exoneration i by the City Court, has lost the respect

#f his constituents, pect further

-p

He can hardly ex-

to hold their confidence,

"and it is not surprising that the people ^of the Third Ward do not want to, be -•represented in the city council by a fnan who has laid himself open to such ^ireneral condemnation.

His community was especially emphatic in voting for law enforcement bettor condition her*., tne Third rd was one of the sections of the city j.-which went on record as determined to £-tlft the city from the muck into which Lit had fallen, and the Civic league

members cannot but "feel deeply over it manner in which they have been 4 ffeetrayed.

The cithfpits of tlie TMra ward will present any attempt to foist such a reps' ^resentative off on them longer. The |i general tone of the city administration y ^largely has been one in keeping with pledges to the people, and the flag^•rant offense of Raider against good

Trillljno government and decent citizenship has automitically tmfitted him to represent I the Third ward in the city council.!

Such examples as Raider in private life

are destructive enough. In fairness, too, to the rest of the city, this.misrepresentative of the public her© ought to be disposed of without quibble. He does not represent the Third ward, and judging the city administration by its acts so far, he does not represent Mayor Hunter's policies for a minute.

REORGANIZE THE Y. M. C. A.

Citizens generally will be interested in the effort to rehabilitate the Y. M. C. A. hern. The decline of the organization was unfortunate, and, while the present may not be the most opportune time to attempt its renovation, still tne need for the institution is here,

(and

with citizens working together the object should not be impossible. The disintegration of the association here can be traced to the episode of the Evangelist Lyon, an imitator of Billy Sunday, the after-effects of whose meeting here created dissension among men from whom the association drew its support. Had the T. M. C. A. then been in hands which realized the dan* ger towards which it was drifting, its present low vitality could have been avoided and it would have been a more influential and effective agency iq, the community.

The association in the past has permitted itself to be used by elements whicn were not concerned with its best interests, nor with the best interests of the community. It sponsored too many enterprises to maintain a strong centralized interest in itself, and it has languished here for year's as a result.

The new start should be made with a clean slate, the first concern of the members of the board should be the success of their institution separate and apart from other movements which it will be asked to foster and support, and a religious avoidance, of any imitators of Billy Sunday.

WHO'S DOWNHEARTED?

Could anything be finer than the spirit with which our American boys have tackled the business of war? This applies not only to the actual fighting, where the courage and dash of the Americans have already been demonstrated on many fields, at Seicheprey, Cantigny, Belleau ^Wood, Vaux and other places. It applies as well to the camps and cantonments, where the drudgery of intensive training has been

borne with an intelligent patience that shows the stuff of which these young warriors are made.

Someone has caTlefi thife the "tragic generation," because upon its men of fighting age has fallen the duty of preserving the liberties of mankind. There is no air ot

tragedy about the men

themselves, however, whether they be recruits of the day or "veterans" of several months' experience.

Talk to any of them you meet read their letters to the* home folks, as published ttt the Tribune. No hint of gloom or tragedy there only confidence, hope, enthusiasm for the day's work, the buoyant spirit that overcomes difficulties and wins battles.

Officers say the chief difficulty with the American troops, once they got to the firing line, is to hold them back. They want to set at the enemy and finish the job. We know, however, their courage is not evanescent. When experience has shown them the necessity for caution they will be equal to the best fighting men of the French and

tot

British, and that is the highest praise that can be bestowed upon them. In addition, they will have the priceless quality of youth, the feeling that they are there to finish the job against a war-worti enemy, the supreme confidence in themselves and their cause that is the best assurance of victory.

KAISER'S ADDING MACHINE.

The official statement Issued by Germany today claiming the capture, of 191,454 prisoners six general officers, more than ^400 cannon and 15,000 machine guns since March 21 is highly impressive, when viewed alone. Such losses would have ended more than one war of first-rate importance. However, there are other faets to tie considered.

The first question that one naturally asks is whether the statement tells Vie truth. That inquiry can be answered best by the allied army commander, and if he should choose to reply It will probably be found that while the Germans have captured a vast number of men and guns, they did not capture as many as they claim.

But even If the statement is statistically accurate, it is still of little value without a statement of what the Germans lost. It is certain that they paid dearly for everything that was gained in the two drives, and it fs equally certain that when losses are compared with resources, the Germans have lost proportionately more than the allies have since last March.

A new Torker named Hammer told the draft "board that he should not be sent to war because "he is a genius, and the world would suffer by hia death." But the draft board was made up of unappreciative Philistines^

Will Sell Seventh Street Property to Clear Indebtedness and Improve Quarters.

As one of the steps in the direction of rehabilitating the local Y. M. C. A., with the coming of the new secretary, A. C. Gran, of LaCrosse, Wis., the directors are planning to dispose of the property at Seventh and Ohio streets for a sum sufficient to wipe out all obligations of the association and leave a »um necessary to repair the building now occupied by it.

At a meeting Monday afternoon, President Kissling announced that an option had been given by the directors on the Reese building at Seventh and Ohio streets for }5Q,00Q.

The conference held at thpe Hotel Deming, attended by members of the board, ministers of the city, and A. C. Gran, selected by the directors to take charge of the work he\*e, showed plainly a feeling that the Y. M. C. A. in Terre Haute would not be allowed to die for want of support.

Mistakes of the past were freely aired and an effort will be made In tne future to steer clear of the things that have caused trouble in years gonp by. Lack of publicity and a failure to cooperate with the public was mentioned as one of the handicaps in the past management, and it was stated that in the future the public would be kept informed regarding the workings of the association, that the men who put up the money to "make the wheels go round" would be able to know at all times where the mone^ go*nS and for what purpose it was being used.

CADETS START DRILL,

Thirty Boys Out Monday Evening At Boys' Club Rooms, The "Newsboy Cadets," 30 strong, turned out Monday evening for drill, conducted by Drillmastqr "L. Harrah, of Company H, Indiana state militia. The drill was held at the rooms of the Flora Gulick Boys' club. As soon as the company is thoroughly organized and drilled an effort will he made to procure uniforms for the cadets.

When the directors of the Boys* club turned the quarters over to the drilling of the boys it was with the purpose in view of aiding the youtn ot Terre Haute to be the beneficiaries of such military training as will be "productive of good health and spirits and there was no idea of making the company an accessory to the army, as such a thing could not be done.

Many of thc^members of the Boys' club are on farms this summer and there is plenty of room at the club rooms for such boys as wish to take the military training and have the advantage of the shower baths and other paraphernalia. It is especially desired that the newsboys, and boys who formerly were Itiewsboys, should attend" these drills. In fact, the company is to be known as the "Newsboy Cadets."

Venus is in p. place that indicates love affairs and sentimentality prevalent among men in high place, the middle-aged and even the old. Much gossip is foretold and this may cause many idle and untrue reports.

Women are warned to be exceedingly circumspect, since the stars seem to increase their ambition to win the devotion of soldiers. The sway is held to accentuate admiration tor what is heroic.
