A HOPE DEFERRED.
If Mayor Hunter and the police defi,- partment were ordered by the federal authorities to klfcp hands off the dope j*' traffickers, that issue is closed.
It is deplorable, however, that the federal agents selected Terre Haute as the rendezvous just when we believed \n? s* this city to be convalescent from such plagues.
Fresh ammunition is thus furnished the critics of Terre Haute, new incen-
tlve Is given those who are but too ready to defame the name of the city, and the whole business is redolent of conditions from which the decent citffteps sought escape.
Mayor Hunter reminds us today that there axe only two ways of getting rid
5., of undesirables, either to bluff them out or convict them of crime. In cherisHIng the thought that Terre
Haute was to have a complete and lasting clean-up, the public seems to have expected tbo much. That, of course, is the public's mistake.
WORKING OUT.
'Gen. Crowder's **work-or-flght** order is beginning to show results, and some of them are surprising. A good many of those who were engaged in non-essential industries are having their eyes opened and their horizons widened perforce. Having dependents,

Asks Same Chance For War Infants
~zShi
ADOLF LEWlSOHSi.
Adolpb Lewisohn is author of the plan now being carried into effect by the International child welfare league. This league believes that war babies should be tfiven the same chance for a natural life as those born in peace times. The committee of the league has appointed persons In each European country to obtain Information on which the society can base its work in bringing up these war babies.
that to one who possesses latent energy, initiative and pluck, being kicked out of a place where these qualities would always have been latent generally amounts to being kicked upstairs, Many man in high places blesses the day*when he was forcibly separated from a sinecure that was steadily sapping his vitality. Although intended for another purpose entirely. Gen. Crowder's order is applying this treatment in a wholesale way.
HER BOY GOES.
She wasn't pro-German in her sympathies. Her world had been an exceedingly »comfortable one until the shadow of war hovered over it. She was a pacifist solely because it Interfered with her personal happiness. This was a freq, country,
Bhe
said, and
the government had no right to take her boy away from her. So, months before he was called even to the training cynp, she spent the nights in weeping and the days in fretting. In vain her friends tried to make her see the larger vieionj and get her away from the narrow, selfish viewpoint she persisted in. At last they gave it up. "She doesn't mean to be disloyal, but she just can't understand it."
Fortunately the folk who "do not understand" are not numerous. Our boys never. could ha*e achieved that remarkable success they did the other day in France had they come from stock that would not or could "not understand." Whether the issue is one of misplaced patriotism!, or the larger one of making real sacrifice, "getting right with the war" is the first duty of every American man, woman aad child.
CUT THE WEEDS.
Dr. T. W. Moorhead says that Terre Haute is singularly free from hay fever this season. This latitude seems to have less thafe other parts of the Mississippi valley, but this year the return of the affliction i§ hardly noticeable He says August trill bring attacks of the fall type of hay fever.

len, the majority ot these being due to useless weeds. The principal causes of hay ^er cases developing in the fall are" the various forms of ragweed, whose capacity for distributing pollen is measured by the hundred millions.
The most common forms of thfa week are the common ragweed (ambrosia artemisiaefolia) which is found in the greater part of the United States east of Kansas, the giant ragweed or ambrosia trifida, which grows in moist areas in this section, and the western ragweed or ambrosia pailostachyal, which is found principally west of Kansas.**
While the ragweeds are the chief causes of fall hay fever, there are other weeds, such as the marsh elder (Iva axillaris), etc., which flower at this season, so that all wood should be treated alike to insure safety against hay fever. in order to avoid hay 'fevar, persons susceptible ta it should see that the neighborhood, near their homes is free from ta.ll grasses and weeds and especially of the' ragweeds. It must be remembered that pollen scatters rapidly when bome by the wind and a single lot full of ragweeds in the immediate neighborhood may be more irritating than an acre at a distance of several squares.
American women writing to their soldier relatives in France are requested by the Council of National Defense to make their letters bright and newsy and cheerful and, for goodness sake, refrain from expression of anxiety and grief. If the boy in France is getting alonar all right don't throw him into a fit of worry by writing him a blue and despondent letter.

SOME STRAW STACK.
By Special Correspondent. CLINTON, Ind.. July 2&.~A Krokler, of Hazel Bluff farm, has the largest straw stack in the county and perhaps the largest in the state. It is composed of the straw from 140 acres of wheat and about fifty acres of rye. The stack is about
200
feet long and 160
feet wide and almost .as square as though it had been huilded to lines. The building is over stalls, and when the stock has eaten into the stack, they will find themselves protected by shelter which will be even m5re comfortable than a stable. The stack will stand until the beginning of winter, when the stock -will be turned to it for f^d and shelter until the .blue-birds get back.

Letters From the People
Editor of the Tribune:— Sir: I congratulate you on Tour editorial article on the performances of Rose Pastor Stokes. As an American who lived in the days when every educational advantage such as Mrs. Stokes was fortunate enough to receive was not given to us In the public schools I have been angered many times at the ungratefulness of Mrs. Stokes and many of her kind. One writer referred to her as an "ingrate," and this word well expresses her attitude toward tHe country that gave her advantages beyond the wildest dreams of her youth. Born in a country where she lived under the most awful tyranny, she came here at an early age, and like Mary e^ntin and others of her ilk she now rails at the country that has done so much for her. At an early age this girl, who in her own country would have lived in poverty, was earning a comfortable salary, and later on she married a millionaire. Let the jail shut her out of our hearing for a while.

Prices Here and Abroad*
Editor of the Tribune: Sir: Tour correspondent "One Who Knows" is wrong in his comparison of the cost of living here and in England. If there is any difference between the two countries at the present time it is in favor of this country, both as regards prices, supply and variety.
The price of everything in 1917 doubled and trebled. Flats are almost unprocurable in London, and four times the prices are paid as compared to prewar days. Fish, vegetables, meat and the thousand and one articles necessary for a household have trebled and quadrupled in price.
Must the Cornflower Gof
Editor of thf Tribune:— Sir: A day or so ago I had the hardihood to wear some Tale blue cornflowers as a boutonniere. My brother-in-law kindly took me to task, inquiring if I did not know that they were kaiserblumen. I retorted that I had heard the fact mentioned quite frequently. Then I reminded him that the driveway to his house was unter den Under, and suggested that I might as reasonably request him to cut down his trees as for him to ask me to forego the pleasure of wearing cornflower.

We Are Not Deceived.
Editor of the Tribune Sir: Do not be deluded with the idea that we are fighting Germany alone. Sixteen countries are working with Germanv. directly and indirectly, for the-larger part as slaves.
