, seriously affecting the war iirograni. PUBLISHING i The laet named bureau is Just having a steel and J masonry building completed for it at a cost to the gov

j ernment of $4,200,000. If the President's suggestion Is

followed that building will be no more than finished than its prospective occupants will find themselves outside of Washington. Likewise most of the other bureaus mentioned have had special quarters constructed for them at huge expense, which will be vacated if they are moved to other cities. The whole proceeding is but another evidence of tbc procrastination, which in the past has livid a burden of millions on the people and prolonged the war additional months. In this instance, as in many others heretofore, if the early advice of Republicans had been heeded the congestion in Washington, both as to office and living

quarters, would have been largely avoided, and the

enormous sums of money that have been expended in

temporary- structures would have been available for

other purposes.

WAR AND ITS REALIZATION. War and its kindred have certainly brought great changes to the earth. Llvitjg conditions are metamorphosed. Everything is for and of war. Where the streets at night were filled with sightseers, shoppers, theatregoers, happy young men and women, now they are deserted. The Sundays are such as they never have been in the history of the country for before the auto came into vogue horses and carriages were as plentiful as they are scarce now. In the churches, in social circles end in the home people have at last come to realize that there Is a war. They realize it in a hundred different ways. , Of late one often tears this statement: "I don't believe the) war will b over until everyone on earth has com to realize that there is a war. Until it gets under the hide of every single man and woman, gets under the hide till It hurts." And all who hear agree. Slowly the tide of war comes in. The shores once so safe and dry are first touched but slightly with the incoming waves of suffering. Each wave comes a little farther, bringing its own feeling of the ocean of war. In time the dry shores are Foaked with the salty brine. Not before the tide has covered every inch of its appointed surface even to those far, high lines touched only by the great tides of spring and autumn, will it begin to recede. And the effects wil be as slow dying out of the world as they have been gradual in their on coming.

YES, IT'S TERRIBLE.

Talk about buying Liberty Bonds and coupons, any

sacrifice the people in this country have made in loaning their savings and war profits to the government at 4 V4 per cent interest, compare the toiling mass of allied troops who for eleven, weeks have been, pounding the Huns day after day, those alive sweating and toiling harder than any laboring man ever worked. Those who are wounded suffering the torments of hell, only the dead lying peacefully, with their faces to the foe, with what we have done here, and yet there have been a few men in every township who have argued and tried to dodge their share of the loan. Some have simply stayed away from headquarters, and some who could have sold their oats for about $18 per acre higher than ever before, have argued that the payment of $1.75 on a hundred dollars extra bonds they were asked to take was too big a sacrifice for them to make. "Isn't that Just too awful for anything?" Benton Review, Fowler, Ind.

If you are one of thoso persons who has an impres

sion that 'ho German people have reformed and are just waiting for an opportunity to overthrow their kaiser and

form a republic, then you should see some of the German

school books for this year, just arrived in America from Germany. They are to be used to instruct the children and they were prepared by the nation's most learned men, its deepest thinkers. These quotations from a Chicas:oan. who has examined the hooks, are enlightening: "A history of Belgium for the use of school h called "A History of Belgium from the Founding of the Kingdom Until Belgium Violated Her Neutrality in 1914.' "A work by a score or more of the leading professors in Germany bears the name 'Germany and the Peace.' The chief aim of this is announced as 'The need of peace without regard to the delusion of a future brotherhood of man, also the necessity of maintaining in the heart of the people the spirit of August. 1911.' "On the back page of a journal for April, 191 S. is an advertisement of a war loan in which it is shown that Germany alone of all Ihe powers of continental Europe has any coal and says: 'The coal of Europe guarantees the loan.' By this Germany assumes to have annexed the coal fields of France, Belgium. Luxemburg and large parts of Russia. This is what the Germans say among themselves, yet they say to the world, 'Conquests were never in their desires.'" These things indicate that the whole German people, having been trained for 40 years, are Huns at heart. They believe in murder and loot and boast of it. The allies can not trust the written or spoken word of people who believe such things. The only kind of victory they can consider Is one so complete that the Huns will not have an opportunity to put their Hunish thoughts into execution. South Bend Tribune.

ONE MAN CAPTURED.

FROM the ungodly sounds made at , NIGHT by the neighbor's cat. Just out of the maternity hospital, and HKK unconventional admirers from Carroll and Ruth STREETS we judge thftt the German I'E.VCE talk Isn't making much of a 11 IT witn them either. WE have been noticing some of the PICTURES of Mies Theda Kara IX her new ntovifl "Salome" AND julgln by the lines of hr costumes SHE doesn't carry either powder puff OR mirror or if she does we CAN'T see with our ageing ryesie;ht

where SHE puts them. WHY should the Kalsr f?ar n internal crisiG? AVE neer yet knew the Trussias army to lose a FIGHT with an unarmed porulace. THERE seems to be considerable TAI-K about the possibility of polygamy AFTER the war and the necessity f"r IT and while we are unalterably orrosED to it AVE would like to be here if it has to HAPPEN". THE railroad? are eoing to be civen A nil.EIO.V dollars by the government

ON' the ground that they haven't

MADE any Improvements In THREE fiscal years AVEL.I we haven't either. et we

know the gov. will not come across. MR. B URBAN Iv has perfected a Kl PER-WHEAT Instead of as we HOPED he would TRY to do something with the cabbanc .SO as to prevent it from growing TWO feet high and three inches across AS they lo In our war garden. FROM their cut up appearance we DON'T believe the HindnburK or THE Kriemhild lines WOULD be even strong enough to land a POUND pike up at Three Iakes. GUESS tbn chancellors now on the

DUST covered top shelf in th ATTIC had better hunch over a bit and MAKE room for old Max WHO seems to be wabbling. WE often wonder as we Jtt in our private BOUDOIR near the. coal bin WHAT has become of the little girl we knew once who used TO walk on her hands AND whether she ever tries it anymore?

WASTE AND CONGESTION. Many millions of dollars have been gpent in the city of Washington for office buildings and housing accommodations to provide for the tens of thousands of war workers who have flocked to the city. There is no let up In activity In that direction and it is planned to spend millions more for the same purpose. Republicans In Congress have time and again suggested that the logical and most effective way to meet the problem was to transfer to other cities those bureaus of the government whose work could be carried on just as efficiently elsewhere. They have introduced bills embodying their views, but they have received scant attention from the party in control of legislation. The Emergency Fleet Corporation has been moved to Philadelphia, but in other quarters there has been no attempt to relieve the situation in the manner proposed. Now that the demand for room is being met to some eitent by the lavish expenditure of the people's money it has occurred to the President that it might be well to see what can be done, in other cities. To that end he has asked the food and fuel administrations, the war industries board, the war trade board, and the war risk

A good index to the way Americans fight is found in a recent summary of casualties among the marines who stopped and blunted the point of the German wedge aimed at Paris. The list shows 717 casualties, of which 160 are deaths caused in action. 160 severely wounded and 373 slightly wounded. There are a few losses from minor causes. Then comes the most interesting item of all one man "missing." Only one man out of those thousands who stemmed the German onset, and of the more than 700 lost In the fighting, was taken prisoner by the enemy. There is not even positive assurance of his capture, though it is assumed from the fact that no trace of him has been found. If really taktm by the Germans, the presumption is that he yielded himself only when helpless from wounds or exhaustion. ' ' The marines do not surrender. Neither does the regular infantry, nor the artillery, nor any other branch of the service. Just watch the casualty lists for a while, and note the incredibly small number of "captured," compared with the usual proportion of prisoners, and particularly compared with the number of German prisoners

taken by our troops.

Frank mark, nlth th. 32th Field Artillery. Battery C, 84th Division, is across Beas. He is a brother to Mrs. H. A. Hetrick. of Drummond street. She received a letter from liim yesterday with this information. He worked at the Indiana and Gary Steel mills when in this city.

SPEEDING UP. The Republican national chairman certainly is "speeding up" in fine style. "The one important thing, now," he said the other night, "is to win the war. Everything else is chores. Behind that purpose must stand firmly, and with a willingness to sacrifice all political advantage every political party and every Individual member of every political party, in order to he at all worthy of consideration." He said that in New York, and was there enthusiastically applauded. We hope that his words were heard as far as Michigan, and that they will there be acted upon in the election of a real man as senator and not as a pacifist rubber stamp.

"I have Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps, have given as liberally as possible to the various 'drives' for our boys overseas, and am a loyal citizen," is the parrotlike plea of every man accused of disloyalty. Getting tired of it. All those things are expected and cannot be accepted as evidence. On the other hand, in the case of a traitor or spy, stamps and bnnds would be the first things he would accumulate to use as a blind.
