GERMAN MENACE REVIVED. W hen the reorganizes of the German government adopted the descriptive appellation "Imperial Republic" thev gave notice that the old ambitions which had

led to disaster had not been abandoned. Nominally all , power was reserved to the people, which was good in J the sight of the democratic peoples outside the Ger-

man borders. Dut the spirit of the Germans not having been chanced, alteration of the form of government was of minor significance. Factional contett3 for dominance would be between frank monarchists and nom

inal democrats, with the chances for success favoring I .1.- iimd ot lenct sinfs with them were !

IQO lOIUiCl, 1 o a, umi; " - . . , . .. . - enrolled the forceful elements who could not unreasonably claim to be the best qualified by experience to rule. The country being united in purpese to regain the pre-war German prestige, the presence of the strongest possible government at Berlin appeared desirable. The Pan-Germanists, Fatherland party and common run of militarists were not all that were out of patience with the Ebert government. Opportunity precenting. a bloodless revolution was accomplished. Apparently circumstances favor the new regime's retaining power fcr some time to come. That it will lead to a restoration of the Hohenzollern monarchy Is not likely. But that It will unsettle the work of European reconstruction Is not to be doubted. This coup d'etat will prove disquieting throughout the world. It is ordinarily no rightful concern of any other country what kind of government rules in Germany. Thi Is not an ordinary time, however. The German people, through their qualified representatives, have entered into certain solemn contracts with the states that vanquished the German Empire. The faithful discharge of the obligations assumed Is essential to the pacification of Europe and the world. The Ebert government was restive of just demands made upon It. It achieved more success In this than should have been permitted. But in the 6lght of certain German elements it was weak in its dealings with the entente. The chief object of the reactionaries who have gained power in the Wllhelrnstrassfl is to put up stlffer resistance to the conquerors. In substance, they propose to test the degree of the victory which was secured in the field and nominally confirmed by Germany's acceptance of the terms of the treaty of Paris. They mean to make trouble for the entente and if possible to force Germany back into its old position of pewer among the nations. So the revolution Is of very great concern to the victorious nations. They must stand by their guns and prevent the realization of the hopes of eld German autocracy that are brightened by its return to the houses of government. Complete success of the junker-militarists would revive all the menaces of the past.

course, he takes a crack at congress and at his predecessors In office. For Instance, his press agent Bays: "The department of agriculture has gone in for two types of secretary. The type which has predominnted through most of Its existence has grown copious crops cf whiskers, has harked back to the good olddays of whittling sticks at the corner grocery, has harbored a pair of brogans in its closet, reminiscent of earlier times. The second type has been from the college classrooms IJut here conies a new type. Secretary Meredith has none of'the earmarks of the farmer." The fl rst secretary of agriculture was Jerry Husk, cne of the sturdy pioneers of the northwest, a real farmer, but a man of affairs as well, who had been chosen governor of his state by the people, instead of being defeated for office as was Mr. Meredith. The second was J. Sterling Morton, a former governor of Iowa, md originator of Arbor Day, a genuine- farmer and alio i man of successful business experience. The third was another former governor and congressman from Iowa. "Tama Jim" Watson. He was probably the most practical and useful Incumbent the office ever had, and under his administration the department ct agriculture assumed its present large place In the national economy. It remained for President Wilson to choose two nonfarmers for secretary of agriculture, just as he has chosen a non-business man for secretary of commerce. This story put cut in Mr. Meredith's behalf about his predecessors being smelly persons from the cross roads dry goods bcxes makes a very good newspaper story, but it is sadly lacking in the essential element of truth. However, the statement with which this piece of propaganda concludes will remain undisputed. The pres; agent says: "Secretary Meredith Is a trained advertising man. He can do his own Creeling."

THE SUBLIME EGOIST. There no longer seems to be any doubt in the mind of the average American that Wcodrow Wilson is an internationalist, but after all Isn't the real title which should be bestowed upon him, that of egoist? Can anyone name a time during his entire administration when his thought has been other than for his personal ambition? Has not every move been followed by the cry of s?lf, self, self? His ambiticn for domination has been much similar to that of the ex-kaiser in that It has Jeen an ambiticn for world dominance. He went to Paris with an idea which he hoped would make him president of the world. The kaiser went to war with the ambition to be kaiser of the world. The kaiser did not get to Paris, thanks tc the doughboys and Woodrow Wilson got there, but failed to attain the ambition thanks to a Republican senate!

CAN NOTHING BE DONE T It is a crying shame that the busy cities of the Calumet regicn 6hould not have an inter-city mail service. When it takes two or three days to send a letter from East Chicago to Hammond, a distance of two or threAmiles or from Hammond to Gary, eleven miles, there is something radically wrong with the muchbruited Burlesouized efficiency, In departmental affaire. We do not know what the district's representatives In congress. Senators New and Watson and Representative Wood are doing in regard to the matter. Perhaps they ar not doing anything regarding our inter-city mail delivery. If they have locked into the matter they may have given up all hope as Republicans In Interesting the Democratic officials in coming to the aid of a Republican district. It is more than possible that If some section in the South wanted to dip into the pork barrel for some improvement that was net half as vital and pressing as better mall service for a district of 150,4)00 inhabitants, there would be no trouble at all In putting It over. Business men and manufacturers in the Calumet tlistrict are intensely interested In this better service. They have remonstrated until they have grown weary of remonstrating, complained until they grew 6ick of complaining. Every city in the region Is connected by street car service ad inter-communication could not be improved upon. There is of course no use appealing to Burleson. He is so penny wise and proud foolish in the administration of his office that it is a joke. We wonder how long the Calumet region is to be Ignored by Washington anyway. What has the government done for it in the past ten years?

SLANDERING THREE GOOD MEN. , The new Secretary of Agriculture, E. T. Meredith starts in Just like any other Wilsonlan cabinet member. He has had a press agent write a story for the papers about him in which he is heralded as "a new type of man" in the office he now occupies. And, of

A GENUINE RELIEF. Amid all these efforts of one organization after another to dictate the votes of members of congress, it must be a relief to the heckled member to reflect that his ultimate accounting Is to all the voters of his district and not to any one class.

We call attention not so much to the sire of this average daily production as to the extent of the effort we put into the making of these 30x3-, 30x312-, and 31x4-inch sizes. The separate factory we have devoted to their; manufacture is not only the largest of its kind in the world, but it makes fully effective that experience and resourcefulness which have produced the tires most popular on the higher-priced cars. No tires bearing the Goodyear name contain a higher relative value than these tires for Ford, Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell and other cars requiring the sizes mentioned. If you own one of these cars, go to the nearest Goodyear Service Station Dealer for these tires and for Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes. He has them.
