The Revolt in Berlin
r Press dispatches from Berlin do not contain enough details to warrant a final judgment on the substitution of the Kapp government for the Ebert regime. But a scrutiny of he records of the leaders of the movement suggests its reactionary character. Dr." Kapp, a former conservative member of the Reichstag, was one of the deputies who
! .urged the government to speed up U-boat build- ! ing. He was president of the Fatherland party, I a notorious Pan-German organization, which ; urged that Germany carry on the war to the bit- ! ter end. . Maj. Gen. Baron Luettwitz, who has been ap- ! pointed to be commander-in-chief, served in BelI gium and on the Verdun front, and was one of I the leaders of the military party that opposed 1 Germany's acceptance of the peace terms. Associated with them, as one may easily infer, are other reactionaries whose sympathies are j linked with the old monarchy and who have been i -waiting patiently for an opportune moment to '. overthrow the Ebert government and restore in j power those sinister influences for whose nulli- ! fication ffie civilized nations spent money without stint and sacrificed men without restraint. Rumblings of the impending storm had reach;ed the allied governments' weeks ago. Their request that Holland increase its watchfulness over ! -former Emperor William whose retreat in AmerTongen is near enough to German soil to make ;him a menace to the spread of republican ideas :;in his former reals, was only an indication of the suspicion felt by allied statesmen over the ability of Germany to redeem herself. : The discourtesies shown to French missions traveling in Germany on official business showed that thousands still dream of "Germany's place in the sun", and of their dissatisfaction with the
government that replaced the Hohenzollern dynasty. Although dispatches so far indicate no connection between Amerongen and Dr. Kapp, the fact remains that he and his associates are Pan-Germans, consequently obsessed of the same mania that in 1914 plunged the world ' into the
most memorable, costly and bloody war recorded
in history.
No one believes for a moment that the new government will dare to employ the military to
oppose the execution of the terms of the Ver sailles treaty, for Germany lacks both the trans
portation system and the munitions and supplies
to engage in war. London and Paris are not wor
rying about such an eventuality. The successful
coup of the reactionaries does show, however,
that Pan-Germanism, lust for conquest, and de
sire for world power still persist in the hearts of many Germans. The glitter and tinsel of the old
monarchy still attracts the hearts of a deluded people, accustomed to pay homage to royalty and more capable of receiving orders than making laws for themselves and electing officials for themselves. It seems to be an obvious deduction that the German must be ruled. He cannot rule himself. The declaration of Dr. Kapp that the revolution does not mean the restoration of the Hohenzollern family and that his regime would stand for strong republicanism with a view to re-establish law, order, discipline and honest government sounds very progressive and liberal. The world hopes it is an honest declaration of honest men. But the records of the men at the head of the new government invites a close inspection of the real meaning of the phrases and prompts one to wonder if subsequent events will establish in fact what Dr. Kapp says in words. Americans are not holding a brief for the Ebert government, neither are they inclined to condemn theTCapp government, but they are very positive in their decision that no Pan-German or militaristic government shall threaten again the peace of the world. A return of the old monarchical party, with its war lords, perfidious ambassadors, sinkers of hospital ships, violators of sacred treaties and detfpoilers of international laws, cannot be tolerated. The world does not care what form of government the German people select, but it does object to the restoration of militarism and the creation of a centralized power to propagate and foment principles radically at variance with the highest ideals of civilization.

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today
A movement was started to have the county commissioners exercise their right under a state statute, and set aside a fund for premiums as prizes for farm produce and stock in connection with the fall festival. Eli Brewer and Miss Harriet Vestal were quietly married by the Rev. J. Cook Graham. The Young Men's Business club decided to hold a noon-day luncheon for the business men of the city, to acquaint each other and to stimulate co-operation.

The elder Harriman was considerably beyond his son's twenty-nine years before he came to be bailed as a great organizer and consolidator. Age counts for nothing in the game the way the younger man plays it, and he
has gone out to gather in steamship lines in a way which promises muci
of interest for the future.
The career of young Harriman in
the steamship business, as in every
thing else in which he has interested
himself, has been meteoric. It wa3
onyl a few months ago that he or
ganized the investment banking house
of W. A. Harriman & Co., opened of
fices in New York, and really entered the shipping business. True, in 1917
he was chairman of the board of the Mercantile Shipbuilding corporation,
which later took over the Chester
Shipbuilding corporation and built for
ty 9,000-ton fabricated steel freighters for the Emergency Fleet corporation, but that was only a tryout tor the bigger development in which he Is now interested. Those who know .Mr. Harriman predict he will not stop with his present achievements. That is not his method. All of his life he has done things on a big scale. Even though he had never been an oarsman of any sort, he convinced Yale, whilo still a student there, that he was equipped to train a crow and after a visit to England to study British rowing methods he cam back, to this country and was named the first undergraduate rowing coach Yale had ever had. In September. 1915, Mr. Harriman married Miss Kitty Lanier Lawrence, granddaughter of Charles Lanier.

Whereas, the people of our city have been led to purchase so-called remediesfrom which they have received no benefit whatever, and having thus wasted so much hard-earned money, it has come to pass that they know not what to believe. Inasmuch as this unsatisfactory state of affairs exists, KNOW, THEREFORE, ALL PERSONS who are in need of such a medicine that we will supply them with VINOL on a POSITIVE GUARANTEE that if it does not succeed in benefiting' them we will refund the entire amount of money paid us for it. There is no one medicine that will cure everything, but there are some we know to be honest, reliable, and of great curative value. Such is VINOL; it is not a secret medicine, just peptonate of iron and all the curative extractives of cod liver oil, combined with other body- , building, and strength-creating ingredients. The com plete formula is on each label. We KNOW that it should benefit every one who uses it Could any offer be more fair than this? You are ill; we offer you medicine which we believe will help you, and if it does not we will return your money. Is there . anyone foolish enough not to accept this offer? You owe it to your family, to your friends, and yourself to try this medicine which we give you our pledge is a genuine cod liver and iron preparation of great merit We unhesitatingly recommend Vinol as a Body Builder nd Strength Creator for Feeble Old People, Delicate Children, Frail Women, All Run Down Persons, and Those Needing a Good Tonic after any Severe Illness, and for Coughs and Colds. Do you think we could afford to lend our name to its praises, as we have been doing in the newspapers, If we did not know VINOL to be an honest and unusually valuable remedy for the ills for which it is prescribed? We certainly could not ; we therefore ask you, our neighbors, friends and acquaintances to accept our assurances that this is a genuine offer, and that any and all persons who need a medicine of this character should feel a sense of security in accepting it Call and get a bottle to-day.

Is Acid-Stomach Sapping Your Strength?

When they are bilious, have severe headache, or an attack of indigestion, rheumatism, lumbago or sciatica; or when they begin to feej run down and are nervocs and mentally depressed; or have dizzy spells, vertigo and pains around the heart little do they think it may have its origin in an AcidStomach.
