The United States Demands an Unconditional Surrender.

THE GREAT EPIDEMIC. The influenza epidemic that is raging only add3 another burden to the backs of business men and manufacturers who are trying to speed up business and production. The country is certainly mighty anxious about influenza. Workers by the hundreds of thousands are kept from their duties and it certainly has depressed many of our finest interests. Its sudden appearance has startled the nation and no one knows what to do about it, a sorrowful experience, when it carries away so many loved ones every day. We are told to avoid crowds, breathe pure air, not to worry, live simply and cheerfully, but all that is very difficult in the face of the dread calamity. We are watching for the time when it grows weaker and claims fewer victims, but that time seems to come very slowly. We can only wait until it runs its course and in the meantime live as healthy and happy lives as possible. Strange that humanity needs on epidemic now rnd then to straighten it out and fit it to the better conditions. Whatever the cause of the need, it only remain." for us to live quiet, hopeful lives, and be ready for whatever fortune or fate may come our way.

EYE FOR AN EYE.

The world is fast getting to the idea that retaliation is the proper resort in war; that for every town Germany destroys some German town will meet the same fate. It is poor policy to let Germany keep up her destruction of towns, churches, bridges, homes, etc., and the allies stand by and refuse, from the influence of holy sentiment, to do the same thing. It may be hard to say it, but it is time when Germany should learn that for every villa destroyed in Belgium or France, one shall be destroyed in Germany. Of course, we don't like to come to that conclusion, but if the purpose was analyzed down to its final philosophy, it would be found to fit in closely with the Christian religion. Except as a last resort, retaliation is a bad thing, but we have reached the region of the last resort, and it is time to bring back ihe old law of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Indeed, it would never have been suspended if, in those days, the Israelites had to fight the Huns. They would then have taken the whole head for an eye or tooth.

OUR SOLDIERS AFTER THE WAR. An army officer has asked the question: "What win become of the men of our army after the war? Perhaps there may be elements of uncertainly abo;:t some features of the after-war situation, but there Is not the slightest doubt that every American who has served his country in the army, navy or marine coips during this awful war will be treated royally when he

leaves the service. Of course the vast majority will return to the positions which they left when they enlisted. In most cnes tliey will be welcomed back to their old places and doubtless in many cases they will be given even better positions in recognition of their invaluable services. Civil War veterans were given special preference in connection with -all of the enormous number of governmental civilian positions available, and a like preference will doubtless be shown the veterans of this war by the government and also by comercial concerns of all kinds. Then, too, there will no doubt, shortly be formed a huge national and, perhaps, international association of the veterans of the, great World War, similar to the old Grand Army of the Republic but much more extensive and powerful than that noted Civil War organization. It is a well known fact that the G. A. R.. for more than forty years, was one of the most powerful factors in the business and governmental affairs of the country, electing congressmen and presidents of their choice and se

curing the passage of many private and general laws for their benefit. The concessions were gladly made notwithstanding the fact that they were veterans of the armies of only the northern section of the country. liv, much more cordial and extensive then will be the recog nition that is given the millions of our heroes of this great war when they return to civil life? Surely the whole people will feel that nothing is too good for them, and they will be given to understand that, having saved the world from destruction, it belongs to them. If there is any question about the matter at all v. is not as to whether the returning soldiers will be properly provided for in everv way after the war, but rather whether there will be anything worth having left for the rest of us after we get through doing for these millions of heroes all of the things we want to do snd will insist upon doing for tlu-ir happiness and welfare when ih.-y come back home. COTTON AND WOOL There? i3 reported to be :i ".000.000-b ile surplus of cotton left from las: car's production. The acreage planted in cotton this oar is Ir.rscr than that of 1017. and the crop us a whole- is in good condition. The output r.iav exceed Ir.j-t year's. Altc:ther. there is every pros

pect of a pknaful supply of thiu st:ti?!o, :i:i-'n!e for all our i needs, military and civilian. j As for woo!, the common knprc-ssion of scarcity J appears to be ill founded. The war industries board has announced that the supplies on hr.nd nnd in siyht are i adequate. "There is no official v-arraar." we are to'd. j "lor statements cr rumors to the effect that it will soon j be impossible to buy wool?:is or woolen clothing suf-J

f.eiert to meet actual requirements of :Ue civilian population." In the fact of this situation, there have been effort.! made to boost the price of both raw cotton and raw wool, and to raise the price of cloth and clothing to exorbitant heights. The public naturally doubts whether present prices are warranted, not to mention the threats of fur

ther rises. Xo grounds whatever for speculative increases are apparent. The war industries board has expressly notified clothing manufacturers, jobbers and retailers that the wool, whose scarcity they feared, will be adequate and will be equitably distributed to meet all public and private needs. If it proves necessary, the government ill proceed to penalize speculation and regulate prices on a scale insuring a fair profit but nothing more. Such action, in fact is already under way.

RESPECTABLE SOCIALISM. Most people at present are not disposed to recognize any brand of Socialism as respectable, so thoroughly have traitorous and muddle-headed leaders discredited the whole socialist movement. If such a term, however, is admissible, it must surely be applied to the principles professed by the American delegation to the British Labor party conference in London. They insist that any man who claims to be a Socialist shall accept the peace terms of democracy as formulated by President Wilson on January 8 and by the entente Socialists in London on February 22. They deny the right of any delegate to be admitted to the conference who is not lending his whole power to democracy in its present warfare against autocracy. They refuse to recog nize delegates from autocratic countries with special reference to Germany and Austria unless they are actively engaged in trying to overthrow their governments. i They stand for a flat, final repudiation of German Socialism. "The German and Austrian Socialists," thej say, "have forfeited their right to be called Socialists and to be admitted to the International. They are traitors to our cause. Judged by its conduct durlrg the war, and especially by its base betrayal of the Russian revolution, the German Social Democracy munt be branded as an enemy of the working clas of the world, including the working class of Germany." This is more than Socialism. It is good, honest democracy of any type you care to name. If the Socialist movement is to survive at all, and enjoy any general respect or tolerance, it can only be through such a sane attitude toward war issues as these men represent.

GETTING TO THE FRONT.

There are so many soldleis at the barracks and cantonments who are getting impatient at the long delay they experience in getting to the front. They want to go. They want to take part in the conflict waged for humanity. They are tired of camp life and want something heroic. They should be accommodated. The war department should see to it. There is no Justice in keeping a good soldier ten or twelve months in camp over here. Three months is long enough to change an American boy into a full-fledged soldier, and there ought to b a government order to that effect. The true soldier volunteers to fight and not to loaf. He reaches his high

est estate when he is at the front. The government j forces

should see that he gets there as soon as possible and

not stand la the way of his greatest duty and desire.

WHERE WERE THE INSPECTORS? There has been discovered a concern in Massachusetts that has been selling a fertilizer, put up ir. small packages, for use in war gardens at price amounting to between ?50 and ?S0 per ton. A chemical analysis of the preparation reveals the fact that its real worth is CS cents per ton. The company that manufactures it is capitalized at $600,0000. The fact that it has reached that hiRh state of organization and been able to foist its product on the market for any length of time Is a remarkable commentary on federal agricultural investigators and postoffice inspectors. It remained for one of the chemists in Amherst College to discover and publish the fraud. The rr.atter having been c?llfd to their attention, it Is stated that the- food administration has sent a protest to Washington thr.t the company be no longer allowed to continue business.
