N'o P?one phould be left by East Chicago to bring the murderer to justice. OutBid detectives sr.

We are gettint; many odd sid-lichts on the character of Kaiser V.'ilhelm. Quite asid from the self revelation of his war spe..-(he-? soil messages. One of the most interesting and characteristic exposes has to do with trophies civen by Wilhelm as prizes in international sporim even's. The Xew York Yacht C'rib has a gorgeous cup presented by the kaiser on the occasion of a celebrated victory, a cup always supposed to be of pure gold and worth about fe.00. On careful inspection it has been found to be made of pewter, th:ily gilded, and worth not more than JoH. A similar discovery has been made regarding the famo'ts "arold cup" he travo in "tT as first prize for a big European mo'or race. The Fiat Company of Turin, which won the cup, believed it was worth $10,000, and In that be'.ief recently offered it to the Italian government as a war contribution. When it went to the mint for melt inc. it was found to consist of base metal merely pa'n'ed wih. gilt, and of little value. The chaerlnned F';:t con, puny took it back, ard sent the government There you have Ka -.-r W '"' "ra. He cc ' s self a great genius. Th tierman people Tvnev- he a great genois. Sometimes outsiders a-e fooled, temporarily, into thinkinc so too. In his speeches and writings a superficial observer might find what seemed Indubitable signs of real greatness lint every time, w h"n you get bxneath the surface, when you read speech the second time, when you sMidy the thine calmly and Judicially, without taking Wilhelm's word or anybody eis'a -word for it. you find that it is not the real thing. The word or the deed is base metal, gilted. On 1 temp ed to call him a German silver kaiser. But German silver, is. at least, no more than it professes to be, r.nd the same ali the way through.

WANTED SOME ORIGINAL THOUGHT. We do not like to knock, but this country is afflicted with too man;.- "Me too" statesmen, too many ""Me too" publicists, too many so-called leaders of public thought whose only real idea is to kick in with the majority and make a noise like a leader. Any man who is a real, honest to God leader, never hesitates to stand alone if the general public doesn't eee fit to follow him. If he te right, they will "come to their mint" after a while, but how raacy leaders do we see standing alone today? Then let us remember that ell real leaders stand alone for awhile at first, and remembering that, how many of our so-called leaders will stand the acid test? How many have stood alone and brought the people to him? We would like to see more men in congress who really stood for something in their own cames, who had some personality of their on, some ideas of their own, who represented certain definite principles, and could be depended upon to stay with those principles, in spite of hell and high water. To hear a congressman plead for himself that he has done everything that the presideit asked him to do, and that he is a loyal and patriotic American, gives us that tired feeling through and through. Oreat God! there are nearly one hundred million loyal and patriotic Americans, and practically all of tbern would do whatever the president asked them to do, so long as the president confined his asking to proper cha-nnels. but we want leaders of men in congress, men whose individual think tanki -vouid be an asset to the president, and to the country, who, themselves, could formulate an idea of what ought to be done, not mere puppets to sing "lie too." Nor Is the lack of essential qualities of leadership visible in congress alone. The press of the country, as a whole, seems to have hopelessly fallen into the "Me too" attitude. Rarely do we read an editorial which really presents an original thought, the prevalent idea of most effusions being a play to whatever sentiment appears, for the moment, to he ici the ascendency, with now and then an appeal to some prejudice for the pur-

BOND HOLDERS, BEWARE OF WORTHLESS STOCK VENTURES! Worthless securities are being offered in exchange for Liberty bonds by certain questionable companies whose activities have reached such a point as to receive particular attention from the Liberty loan organizations and federal reserve banks. The efforts of certain stock salesmen amd promoters to float issues of stock by taking in exchange Liberty bonds may result disastrously for Liberty bond holders whose financial knowledge is not sufficient to protect them from fallacious arguments of salesmen who advocate the promotion of new companies to "stimulate production." The practice of exchanging stocks for Liberty bonds is specifically disapproved by the treasury department, both, because o'f the danger to the small bond holder and the conversion of Liberty bonds Into a paper currency. The treasury department is compelled to characterize any continuance of it as an act unfriendly to the government. If any such cases come to jour notice, please advise promptly, giving name of company issuing the stock which is being offeVed, its address, name of the salesman, and of the officers of the company, if you can get them. Better wire your report so further activity may be quickly stopped.
