Collier's and Secretary Daniels Collier's believes in preparedness and in having men at the head of the army and navy departments who really know what they are doing. Secretary Daniels of the navy department has been a thorn in the flesh of Collier's for many months. Last week it exposed some of the misleading reports of the secretary regarding alleged good marksmanship of the American fleet. The Chicago Tribune comments as follows on the Collier statement: The Raleigh, N. C, News and Observer has a chance to get a scoop In Washington news. The publisher of the Raleigh News and Observer can get It from the secretary of the navy. If Josephus Daniels, editor of tho Raleigh News and Obcrver, cannot get it from Secretary Josephus Daniels of the navy department then no man can get this Information and It ought to bo had. Tho Information which Secretary Daniels has and Editor Daniels might get relates to the battle practice records of the American naval gunners, From time to time n cautious publication Is made of a good record. Usually It nets forth the work of one gunner or of one hlp, Alway It Is flattering to tho navy. Cnlllur's Weekly wtyn: "Wo huvti received what wo believe to be an accurate account of the practice In Cuban water In February and March,

1916. Here are the figures for six of the battleships: ? : BATTLE PRACTICE. : ; . :i " . Shots Ships Allowed. Hits Nebraska .126 10 Kansas 126 5 Louisiana v.... 126 10 Virginia 126 12 New Jersey 126 13 Rhode Island 126 1 "An official of the navy department has since told the newspapers that the marksmanship of the fleet has improved 40 per cent in a year. If that is true, it might be interesting to know how near the Rhode Island came to hitting anything last year!" n Collier's also recalls the fact that Capt. William S. Sims in testimony before a committee of the house of representatives said that Secretary Daniels forbade publication of gunnery records which Sims thought were good because at the bottom of the list was a ship which, having had an accident in the firing mechanism, had made no hits and because another ship had made a very poor record. A "Nothing ding," said Daniels in final prohibition of making the report public. As Sims said, any foreign government that wants to know how the American navy is shooting can find it out. The deceived people are the American people. We have been brought up from the nursery in the belief that God gave the Americans miraculous ability to use a gun. Davy Crockett is the normal American man in this day. It does not matter whether the gun is a popgun or a sixteeninch naval gun, the American at birth got the ability to use it. If the navy is shooting badly every nation will know it except the American nation. We shall not know it because the administration does not want the nation to know it. We shall continue in the belief that American gunners are invested with supernatural powers as gunners. A navy that cannot shoot is no navy at all. It is worse than no navy. It is an investment of millions in craft that cannot defend themselves and that will be destroyed. We do not know whether the gunnery In tho American navy is good or bad. Capt. Sims asked Daniels to allow public opinion to operate on tho navy. If the people were Informed that something was wrong with tho gunnery, they would ask why It was wrong and there would bo a chance to correct. If the trouble was lack of practice shooting, they would see that opportunities for practice shooting were incrcused nnd that money was provided for ammunition, The correction, as Capt, Sims knew, wan in public opinion, Opinion to be active muat have Information, Danlela has refused to allow Information to be had. Consequently we go along thinking that the navy can shoot and not knowing a thing about It, Daniels would rather hide a defect than correct It,

The Land of Manifold Wonder Geysers and hot springs, eternally boiling, rumbling and spoutingthese are the things for which the Yellowstone is famous. Butthis wonderland wouldbeworthsettingasideasanationalpark even if there were no geysers. The Canyon of the Yellowstone River, the countless falls and streams and lakes, the beauty of the forests and peaks these alone are worthy of nationalization.

Then there is the wealth of wild animal life, equaled nowhere else in the world 30,000 elk and countless bears, deer, antelope and Rocky Mountain sheep. Tourists enjoy the animals, particularly the bear, as keenly as the volcanic wonders. A grizzly comes out of the forest and chases a black bear up

a tree, while scores of people a few yards away stand and watch in utter safety. Let us send you our reprint of the booklet which the Department of the Interior has prepared on this land of geologic freaks and animal sanctuary. The

ADMIRED OLD REBEL; TEACHER LOSES JOB

TOKYO, Japan, Aug. 8. "Dangerous thoughts" can be entertained about the past as well as the present in the view of the Japanese educational authorities who have dismissed a teacher for expressing admiration in a school lecture for Taira-no-Masaka-do, who in bygone days attempted to upset the imperial throne. The offense was brought to the notice of the disciplinary committee who considered the utterance of the teacher highly improper and recommended him for dismissal. The headmaster got in first, however, by resigning as soon as he heard of it on the ground that he was responsible for the ac

tions of his subordinates. The school

has been very unfortunate, its history in the last two months having included a strike of students, the resigna

tion of the teachers en bloc, and now

the scandal reported above.

STREET GAR FARES INCREASE IN TOKYO

TOKYO, Aug. 8. Fares of Tokyo Btreet cars have been increased by half a cent the trip and only one man offered the increased price on his own initiative. By the new schedule the fares are raised to three cents for the single Journey to any point on the system and five cents for the double journey. As many transfers of cars are allowed as are necessary to take the passenger to the point mentioned when he took his ticket, and eight or nine miles is a common journey for the three cents.

The same fare is charged for a journey of one block. From four to six a. m., laborers are granted round trip tickets at three and a half cents, an increase of one cent. Many amusing incidents occured during this stage of the work yesterday. The conductor is given the right of judging from appearance whether the passenger is a laborer or not. One girl was refused the low rate because she vas reading "The Schoolgirl's Magazine," and the conductor said it was impossible that anyone perusing literature of that class could be a factory worker. A young laborer

seriously asked for a reduction of ball a cent on the ground that Japanest theatres invariably make a reduction on the first day of each run. In aer eral cases both passengers and conductors forgot about the new fares and more than one absent-minded con ductor ga79 the usual half cent change out of a five cent piece. None of the passengers refused tho change.

Many druggists recommend this remedy because they know that it is reliable. Obtainable everywhere. Adv.
