GERMAN GOLD AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS. Charges that American newspapers had been sul- j sidized with British gold were the smoke feroen behind j which the German purchase of the New York ''Mail was I temporarily concealed. It is not so long ago that pro-Germans were charging that American newspapers were receiving money from j British sources. It was even alleged that this paper in j the early days of the war was bought body and soul by I the British government. ! Wo wonder what these people who made the charges! will say to the evidence now brought out that there was! a corruption fund of eighty million dollars- German do!-' lars-- to subsidize 'he American newspaper? j The smoke has cleared away, and the ork of the j enemy beneath it? cover i? now coming to Korht. 1' is j

NOT QUITE, KAISER. "Our victorious arms have not yet succeeded In entirely breaking our enemies' will to destruction," fays the kaiser, "but Germany's sons, with unshakable confidence, are rallying round their supreme war lord." Oh you modest little vi-olet, how are they breaktVg this evening? How are Germany's son?? What do they think of the "flabby" American boys, eh Bill? You visisotks, Huns and vandals!

W. C. T. U. ON RAMPAGE AGAIN. Blooming'on. Ind.. July IT. A committee of representatives from the local V. C. T. V. appeared before the city council and asked that an ordinance be adopted prohibiting women and girls employed in various factories from appearing on the street s in overalls. Since the outbreak of the war more than 100 women have donned overalls and have takn the places of men in factories. The argument used by the W. C. T. U. at the council was: That it is harmful to the girls to be so clad; that there is a cprtain dignity about womanhood that must be maintained, and that it lowers the dignity of the city to permit women to appear in overalls on the streets. The council, after hearing the complaint, decided not to take action until another hearing is held, when the working girls will be invited in to present their side of the question. It seems a pity that the good women of the W. C. T. U. cannot find any other means of activity during this great and stupendous struggle than by interfering with patriotic workers engaged in war pursuits. If these girls are magnificent enough to go into factories and engage in useful occupation it seems to a mere man that thej should have the right to wear whatever they see fit. At least they are clothed when they are in overalls. If th-e W. C. T. I", wants to do some good for moraltty why doesn't it-start a crusade against the clothing worn

by some girls on the streets. These girls expose their i

persons !n startling fashion nd some of them are related at that to AY. C. T. U. mothers. It was not long ago that the AY. C. T. U. members down state were raising Ned because tobacco was being turnished to the boys in France. They wanted to stop tobacco growing in Indiana, but there was such a protest that th.9 crusade was stopped. The V. C. T. t. women ought to recognize that these are war times and unusual times. Conditions are not such as they were a few years ago. If the Bloomington city council is wise it will throw the ordinance in the waste basket and provide the women of the AY. C. T. U. down there with some much-needed war duties.

We

have had many chapters of it. but the end of the narrative is not yet in sight. It was an elaborate ami expensive effort. For a time it was a fairly successful effort. If it. did not have us convinced, it had us dazed and guessinc. P failed because Germany presumed upon its par'ial success and by her deeds disillusioned us. The I'-boat

made German propaganda impossible. It

tic of the German to undo w,:h one hand what he lias, attempted with the othr. because having no eh ;. 1 standard, no foundation principles of righeune.;. his conduct lacks any clement of mora! unit). OUR ANSWER. German statesmen and editors throughout this war have affected to re.gard 1 lie I'nited States as a nation th :" talk? a great deal more than it ac's. it is thereto:., fitting that our answer to the new (, run peace offensive is given in deeds rather than words. That answer is written large in our present war activities. One item is the appropriation or" J12,"t00.foo,ni.) for the army. Another is the adoption of tin artillery program entailing the expenditure of about 35,OftO,(Ofi,OrtO for guns. Another is the launching of more merchant ships in one day than Germany ever launched in six months. Another is the presence of a million troops in France, half of them ready for battle. Then there is the holding of a 4"l-mile front of our own. with preparations for greatly extending that front. There is the organization of our armed forces on a bais of three armies, each of which will contain 1 ,375,0th) men, wih l.OOO.ono in each available for fight and th assurance that there will be as many more such armies as circumstances may require. We might mention, too, the absolute defeat administered to the Germans so far in every conflict with American troops, and the resulting conviction slowly settling into the German heart that every unit of the millions now in the field aeainst them and the other millions to follow will fight just as hard.

IF "Whiting" will read the notice on this pace carried for thirteen years, legardlng anonymous communications, he will understand what, has become of his. The anonymous letter expresses his exaltation of fair plav and carries biting criticism of this paper on sundry matters, yet the writer of the screed has neither the courage nor the courtesy to sign his name. In other word?, he belongs to the small army of people who want a newspaper to do things they are too cowardly to do themselves.

THE costume worn by Joan of Arc on Chairman Peter's War Savings Stamp rosters looks at first bluh as if it must have been pretty uncomfortable, but if the girls were anything like the girls now-, as we suppose they were, we imagine she could just slip a tea gown or a kimono on over it when there was no special fighting going on and she wasn't going out socially and hardly realize that it wasn't merely her new corset.

SENDING US RAZOR BLADES DISGUISED. Germany is selling blank razor blades to Sweden and Sweden has been selling them to the United States. Even with the war on her neck Germany can find time to do a little manufacturing and sell razor blades cheaper than our makers. And don't forget that when this war is over we will need that republican tariff to project us from euch things. Japan is also selling cutlery in America at less than our manufacturers quote it. In all this racket of war it will be well to remember that we are going to need a tariff more than ever when peace conies. So it will be important in electing United States senators and congressmen to select those who will stand by American manufacturers. Henry Ford says we don't need it. It may be that Henry can get on without it. There are thousands of good concerns that will need it, and when we say this we are including the labor employed by them. Eighty per cent of the cost of the article will be labor, you know, and anything that hurts the sale of the article must also hurt those engaged in its making, or production. It's perfectly legitimate, even with the war raging, to give heed to this thing, because the free trader is everlastingly at it. Protection means Just what the word indicates, and it's tip to all of us to 6ee that we don't neglect to make It prominent in wai or in peace, because it's vital to our industrial and social success.
