The Fourth of July was celebrated this year around the world. It was celebrated by foreign republics and by democratic monarchies. It was celebrated strangely enough, by kings and queens, including the sovereigns of the empire from which our Independence Day declaration Fevered us. It was celebrated with vigor and fitness by the million American soldiers who are fighting in Europe to vindicate the principles of our great declaration. It was celebrated hero at home, in every American city and town, with new understanding and appreciation, by natives and the children of natives, and no less by aliens and aliens' children. All these memorial activities are admirable. There

If you have any trouble getting The T mes m;ike com- i peal to the imagination than any of them. It is the cele

They aggregated about half a million tons, a greater tonnage than wo used to launch in the course of a whole year. They will provide the means hy which we can maintain more than 150,000 troops ij France. And that is but one day. It is exceptional, to be sure. Some of those ships have been held back a little for the occasion, others have been rushed. But the

BIG BOOZE TRAFFIC.

For some reason or other there seems to be a decided tendency in various cities and parts cf Lake County to totally ignore the fact that this is now dry territory. If the law violators were few and far between, one might surmise that some of them had been hit over the head with a brick, causing mental lapses and loss of memory, but the booze inva?ion of Lake County has been so active and grows apace that there seems to be a concerted effort to make the cities of Hammond, Crown Point, East Chicago and Indiana Harbor wet again. These booze-carriers seem to be of the opinion we cannot imagine what advisor they get it from that they can cart this stuff into Lake County with impunity and get away with it. As Hammond is the place where these booze common carriers come over the line, the police have been working night, and day to lead them to the bastile. They have been very successful. The fins, however, are not stiff enough and it is time for the IT. S. government to take action. L. Ert Slack, the district attorney, has been promising to put a stop to the practice up here, but so far he hasn't been very successful. The traffic goes on night and day. Some strange stories are told. In one city in the county all that is necessary to get a high ball is to t?n in any of the soft drink shops and call for a ginger ale. In another city in a public building the denizens make no bones about bringing it into the structure. There must be enormous profit in the stuff when traffickers will take the chances they do. But it does look as if some one else beside? 'he Hammond police ought to get busy.

launrhir.es will not stop -when the last of those new

merchantmen has slid down the ways. The glorious splash will be repeated the next day, and the next, ever-growing volume, until every day in the year is reminiscent of this big celebration. It is particularly fitting because of what the ships mean. It was German attacks on our ships, German violation of the sacred sea laws, that drove us to war. We entered the struggle first of all to vindicate the freedom of the seas and make good our right to sail them at our own pleasure, without the permission and despite the prohibition of any upstart autocrat. These ships are re-establishing that freedom the oldest freedom there is, and the most vital to nations. How the kaiser, with his own merchant fleet half lost and the rest rusting in safe harbors, envies those 100 launchincs! And how he longs for the sea-mas'ery they represent;

POLITICS? OH, NO. It was delightful when Tom Marshall and Sam Ralston to'.d us there should be no politics in this war. We naturally heaved a sigh of relief. Everything was to be devoted to winning tb,e war. Then came the rude shock. An Indianapolis democratic paper said: "Ail set! "The democrats of of Indiana are at the scratch today and first thing tomorrow morning the state committee, under the direction of Chairman Fred Van Nays, will inaugurate an active campaign that will be continued throughout the entire summer. "Plans of the democrats tail for the holding of meetings in every district by the state organization and by the nominees on the state ticket. This is a decided departure from the rule that has prevailed with both parties for many years. Neither has held meetings of its state organization heretofore outside of Indianapolis."

IS THE LESSON LEARNED? "The president's pardon of the sentries who slept at their post is a popular act- The soldiers are very young, and they were only a short time away from a country that slept at its post for two years." The New York Sun. There Is much sardonic wisdom in this editorial quip from the columns of our metropolitan contemporary. The sentries who slept at their posts could plead infinitely more reasons in extenuation of their military crime than the country itself would be able to produce if it were indicted at the bar of history for its criminal lack of prepreparedness during the seething years when the world was on fire and when the powder train manifestly led directly to the citadels of Columbia. The Gazette can everlastingly remember the odium and anathema which was piled upon its head by critics when it was pleading and begging for preparedness. It is too late for post-mortems. There is quite no advantage in mulling over the battles that are lost and gone. But with equal truth it must be said that there is no eompensaaion for the loss of these battles, unless the scales have fallen from eyes and we are prepared for the future to profit by our experience. The brave boys who were pardoned by the president after they had been sentenced to death for a sentry failure which might have cost the live? of a brigade or a division will not sleep upon their posts again. Xor will any othe- sentries in the army soon forset the lesson which has been driven homeIt is to be hoped that the pPOple of America have similarly taken their experiences to heart and that they will never again lean upon broken reeds; that they will never again fail to maintain a national muscle equal to national ideals; that they will never again complacently await the crack of doom before preparing against the day of judgment. Out of this war pray God may come an intrna-

Michigan is none of our custard pie, neither is Henry Ford. We have, however, never forgotten Mr. Ford, who is running for Senator in Michigan. We remember how bitterly pro-pacifist he was and how he was beloved of Germany and the Germans. The democrats say Ford is a republican and the republicans say he is a democrat. That's neither here nor there. We are vastly interested in what Colonel Roosevelt says of Ford. That great American says: I. oppose Mr. Ford because in the great crisis I feel that his election would be a calamity Lorn the standpoint of fa--sighted and patriotic Americanism. I would oppose him if he had been nominated by the republican party. I oppose him in precisely the same spirit now that be has been nominated or. personal grounds by Mr. Wilson. No man struggled harder against preparedness, no man was more easrorly hailed as an ally of the pro-Germans than Mr. Ford during the two and a half years before we did our duty and entered the war. He is not a republican, he is not a democrat. He supported Mr. Wilson on the "he kept us out of war" issue. Mr. Wilson can only desire his election on the grounds of personal politics, as Mr. Wilson wishes as associates not strong men. but servants, and from servants he demand servility even more than service.

GOVERNMENT RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION. The general policy and purposes of the Railroad Administration as announced by Director General McAdoo may be briefly summarized as follows: First, the winning of the war, to which everything mu?t be subordinated; second, the service of the public, which meanas maintenance and improvement of railroad properties so as to provid" safe and adequate transportation facilities at lowest cost; third, the promotion of sympathy, understanding, and co-operation between the administration and the 2,000.000 railroad employes and the 10 'l.U'HViOo patrons, which latter includes every individual in the nation; fourth, the application of sound economics, including elimination of superfluous expenditures, payment of just wages and just and prompt compensac tion for injuries, economical purchase of material and equipment, adoption of standardized equipment and approved devices for saving life and labor, economic routing of freight and passenger traffic, intensive employment of all equipment, and careful record and scientific study to secure the greatest efficiency. The Director General states that while the develop

ment of this policy requires time, great progress ha? been
