CONGRESS AND PROHIBITION. An inquiring mind wants to know what we think of tfce discovery of twenty-six empty whiskey bottles on the floor of the House office building in Washington in one day. Well, sir, you wouldn't expect wise and experienced men like coneressmen to leave twen'y-six full boMls around where the janitor could find them, ou'-.i you? Eesidea, you wouldn't expect congress to adjourn to Baltimore every time a member wanted a drink. We are not surprised even to hear that 1?0 bottles are collected cn this Poor of the House office building every month. It simply shows that eon.iress is reforming. . When we visited in Washington twenty-six bottles a day wouldn't, supply the committee on Irrigation alone.

WAR SAVINGS STAMPS AND BABIES. Brr.nd Whi'lock. o'jr minister tn T5elr ium when t'he Geiman hordes first entered that martyred country and for thre long years thereafter, is now it 'ling ua of some cf th things that happened during that orgy of German lust. He vvri'es in "Everybody's" as follows: "It was on that Sunday morning of the 22rd; the flrmans that swarmed down the Frifdrau road, entered the quarter of Tenant, arrested ihe inhabitants and took

them to the Rocher Davard. The people were held there.

Those were the good old day when many ooncres- eider.t!y ns a screen, wh;!- 'he Germans began to con-

Speaker Clark says the whiskey that would cn into those bottles wouldn't make half a drink all around for the House membership, from which you can get soai-5 Idea of the size of a drink in old Pike county, Mn., whre, by gad, sub., no houn' dog can b kicked around wih impunityWhen you think of the house voting for a prohibition amendment to the constituMon and then think of those twenty-six empty quart bottles being found on one day, it may look inconsistent, bur 'perhaps the members foresaw the waves of prohibition about to roll over the country and decided to do a little surf-bathing beforehand. Wa have one positive opinion about the matter, and that is we feel a deep sympathy for the janitor who found the bottles empty. We hold no brief for John Barleycorn, bur shudder to think what might have happened to the constitution and the union if they had had proh;biion in th-? days of Dan'l Webster. Eut the country need feel no apprehension for the future, for if th federal prohibition amendment ehall be ratified by three-fourths of the states, there will still be two places' left in th coun'ry where a persevering man can get a drink he either can move to West Hammond or get elected to congress.

AFTER HUN BILL'S HIDE. Those "lightning-trained Yankees" in the Chau'eanThierry sector have been carrying on again- Pitted hopelessly against. German soldiers trained from their youth up, as Berlin would say, they rushed the kaiser s invin cible3 off their feet, foucht their way throush to all their objectives. cleaned out a salient, killed S'"io Huns and wounded 5.000 of them. Lightning training thus does not appear to be wholly inconsistent with lightning-like

strokes m action, as Germany is rapidly learning. Wi'h hundreds of thousands of American soldier? of similar! calibre already gathering just back of the Allied battle-j lines, the desperate German effort to break thmueh i somewhere finds its abundant explanation.

cf Ihe prisoners, in a boat across 'he river to inform trie French that unless thev ceased firing the civilians would be shot. M made his dangerous voyace, accomplished his mission, and returned to take his place among his fellows But a few stray bullets ?nll sped across the river. "Thf-n was committed the atrocious 'rim". The prisoners were massed together, nearly ninety of them, old men. nnd young, women, girls, and boy, little children, and babies in their mother's arms. A platoon was called up; tl-e colonel in command gave the word to fire, and the gray soldiers in cold blood, shit down those ninety persons as they s'ood huddled there tcceth- ( r. Among them wer-a 12 children under th age -..f 6 year?, 6 of whom were li"le babies, whose mother", as they stood up to fac their pitiless murderers, held them in their arms. "The six bab'e.s were the child Floret, ?, weeks old; Nellie. Po'i'et, 11 months obi; Maurice Betemps, 11 months old; Gilda Matehot, 2 years old; Gilda Genen. IS months old and Clara Struvay, 2 year sold. "Evening came; the soldiers were fumbling among the mass of dead- Some were still living; some by a miracle, were uninjured. And these were dragged from the pile of bodies and made to dig a pit and to umr!e Into it the bodies of the victims of the traeedy, their relatives, their neighbors, their friend'." There are 2.l'll1bt'"'rt reasons why every American should buy War Savings Stamps. There are 2.n,"".nri" American babies under 1 years of ago. ,
