Force Alien Enemies to Register
Attorney General Gregory has submitted to President Wilson a draft of the regulations under
which the alien enemies of the United States would be compelled to register their names, occupations, and family and business connections. A proclamation of the President putting into effect this rule will help break up the menace. We believe there is only one method to stamp out espionage and connivance with disloyal acts -in-ern and imprison suspects without much ado. The intrigues of Germany in this country before we entered, this war are an indictment for which the Kaiser can offer no excuse. Today he is practicing the more insidious method of burning our munition plants, disrupting our transportation systems and spreading unrest and dissatisfaction among our people.
terances after the break with Germany, he called on Americans to be tolerant of the aliens within our boundaries, assuring them that so long as they behaved themselves this country would not molest them. The American people entered into the spirit of their chief executive, but thousands of alien enemies have imposed on the President's kindness, rewarding his sympathy with arson and dynamite. The full power of the United States must be invoked against them. Every citizen must look upon himself as a custodian of his country's
welfare. Every disloyal utterance must be re
ported to the federal officers, Postmaster Beck being the proper authority in this city, or to the
local police department. Workmen in the shops ought to keep a sharp watch on men of foreign birth. If they arouse
suspicion, play safe by calling the attention of the police and the federal authorities to their actions. The way to rid this country of enemy spies and plotters and German sympathizers is by the eternal vigilance of its loyal citizens.

A WORD rd THE DEPARTED
Italy's forced retreat was due to German pro
paganda in the Second Army. Craftily planting;
Austrian troops opposite the soldiers of this unit, her agents encouraged the Italians to fraternize with the enemy until an understanding was reached that both sides would refuse to fire on each other. On the day of the attack, Austrian troops were transferred elsewhere and German shock troops smashed the Italians into pulp or forced them to surrender. Germany has lost none' of her cunning in treating with the American problem. Why believe that the Kaiser's agents in this country are not present among the thousands of skilled mechanics who are working in the shops where munitions are made or war material of all sorts prepared?
Richmond has no proof that spies and German agents are not in its midst, spreading lies about our government, trying to discourage our young men against military service, and weakening our morale. We have every reason to believe that just the opposite holds true, and that every man, citizen or alien, who is not solidly behind the government is an enemy who ought to be locked in
. jail. Do the citizens of Richmond believe that Germany would permit men to make hostile statements against the Kaiser or intimate that the Hohenzollern army will be defeated? Certainly not. Men who are guilty of such statements in the Kaiser's realm are lined up before a firing squad. The big fires in American factories and packing houses in the last three weeks are conclusive evidence of the methods which German spies and sympathizers are employing to cripple us. The end justifies the means, according to the Kaiser's ethics, and he will stop short of nothing to accomplish his purpose. The alien enemies of. this country should be known. Every community should have a list of them, so that their actions and words can be watched. Their movements should be under the surveillance of the community. Every factory owner and employer of labor should know whether his employes are Germans or Austrians. Why wait until more factories are destroyed, more bridges dynamited, more packing houses and grain elevators burned? The names of men who are subjects of Germany and Austria ought to be public property.
The President has been magnanimous in his treatment of alien enemies. In his very first ut-
How Germany Makes War By William E. Jenkins. Librarian, Indiana University. Germany is waging "absolute war" and seems proud of the fact. What is "absolute war?" It is war waged without any of the restrictions and limitations due to the influence of Christianity and civilization... For hundreds of years the tempers of men outside Germany have grown milder as their weapons have grown deadlier. They have come to spare the lives of prisoners and to treat them
without cruelty. They give the enemy's wounded the same care as their own. They respect hospitals, doctors and nurses and the Red Cross flag. They spare the lives and property of non-combatants. They obey international law. In brief, they try to limit the destructive effects of war to the men and the materials actually employed in fighting. This is civilized war. Germany, however, when it suits her purpose, ignores these merciful and civilized restrictions. Her aim is not merely to defeat and capture the army of her enemy, but to destroy the very life of the people she is fighting. She often finds it inconvenient to take prisoners, sinks hospital ships, fires upon hospitals, refuses respect for the Red Cross flag, uses poisonous weapons forbidden by international law. She pillages cities and gives them to the flames. She massacres the male inhabitants, ravages the women and mutilates the children. She bombards the noble monuments of Christianity, the glorious cathedrals and even

leveis tne veneraDie rums 01 ancient castles m her blind fury. She sinks passenger and merchant ships without warning and rejoices over the number of drowned. She sends Zeppelins to bombard undefended cities and slaughter innocent women and children. She drags whole populations from their homes, the men to slavery and the Women to lives of shame. And this is "absolute war." It is the unique invention of Germany.

Since the war started the holes in the Swiss cheese have been growing noticeably larger. We complained of this in our favorite cafe the other day and the waiter said: "The- best Swiss cheese always has the largest holes."
The next time we ordered a Swiss cheese sandwich the waiter handed Polish Laborers Kept in Condition of Semi-Slavery COPENHAGEN, Wednesday, Nov. 14. The conditions of semi-slavery in which Polish laborers in Germany are living is illustrated by an advertisement appearing in a recent issim of

twenty men and thirty girls, for the same number of other hands. One of the first acts of the newly formed Polish council of regency was to submit a demand for the better treatment of Polish workers, Including those caught In Germany by the outbreak of the war and those coaxed or forced to leave Russian Poland after its occupation and to accept service in Germany. The laborers are not permitted to change masters nor to move from place to place without a special government authorization. Apparently well authenticated reports tell of the deception of those recruited in Poland both regarding wages and the nature of employment. A recent interpellation in the reich&tag dealt with tha forcible deportation of laborers from Poland to Germany.

After telling the story of the wanderlugs of the Israelites In the wilderness, a teacher the other day asked: "When at last after forty years they found themselves out of the wilderness, what would they be?" She expected the answer that they would be old men and women, but a little girl who put up her hand promptly replied : "Out of breath."

Sure Way To Get Rid Of Dandruff
There is one sure way that never fails to. remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This destroys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all. of your dandruff will be gone, and ..three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This simple remedy has never been known to fail. Adv.

The late Cy Warner told this story at a luncheon not long before his death: A Scotchman came upon an automobile overturned at a railway cross-
Cleveland, Ohio. "For years I suffered so sometimes it seemed as though
1 could not stand
it any longer. It was all in my lower
organs. At times I could hardly walk, for If I stepped on a little stone I would almost faint. One day I did faint and my husband was sent for and the doctor came. I was ta-

and stayed four weeks but when I came home I would faint just the same and hod the same pains. A friend who is a nurse asked me to try Lydia E. Pinkharn's Vegetable Compound I began taking it that very day f or I was suffering a great deal. It has already done me more good than the hospital. To anyone who is suffering
as I was my advice is to stop in the first drug-store and get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkharn's Vegetable Compound before you go home."" Mrs. W. C. Brown, 2844 W. 12th St, Cleveland, Ohio.
