Take the socialists as a concrete example. Thevaro real i-ropauandlsts or Wfn f(,r a WOrld citizenship, appropriatinR at least that much of culture, and JiRhtim: for it with a cosmopolitan spirit that has at times reached almost the point of venRcance. They would have none of this "narrow patriotism," commonly known as "national loyalty." hut when the war came and their countries called them, the "brotherhood o f man" which they had pr ached and believ ed proved to be a fragile bond. "Narrow patriotism" ove rcame their pacitic principles. The Jews are a still hotter example; for unlike the socialists, they arc of one race, and a race that has preserved it.s own loyalties and ideals longer than any other. Herman Kernstein estimates that there are C.'O.OuO Jews in the belliRcrent armies. About 400,000 of them are in the Russian army, 20o,00o of them in the German and Austrian, :U.0oo in the French, 30.000 in the Kritish and the rest in the Turkish and Italian armies. The enthusiasm with which they have fotiRht. when arrayed auainst each other, is shown by the fact that thousands of them have been decorated fr bravery. Fven in Russia, most of them seem to have entered the army willingly, and to be one in spirit with their Slavie comrades. They are Russians lirst and Jews afterward. Doubtless it would prove so in thei i l.nited States, if we were drawn into the war, in spite of the present attitude of certain elements whose alien activity comes perilously near to t reason. The Panama canal, as shown by the latest report, is now self-sustaining. A deficit incurred in the first months of operation "was wiped out by the end of May, leaving a surplus of $177,7?y after paying all expenses of the canal zone, including civil government and sanitation. Apparently, the canal will soon begin to pay interest on the cost of building it. It's really a business asset, not a national liability. A conscience-smitten man has sent ? 10. 000 to Fncle Hani's eonscier.ee fund and says he still jets an occasional smite. We know of lots of perfectly righteous fedk who would swap consciences with him for half the sum. SOME WILD FINANCING EXTRAORDINARY C'liaiiitg an Avalanche of Dollars I i to $.,U)o an Hour.

Letters of the People EDIT R NEWS-TIMES: The attempt of a local minister to tise the illustration of the ostrich, "which in the presence of danger buries its head in the sand and ignores the peril." as typifying the Christian Science teaching about the unreality of sin. shows that his investigation of Christian Science has been hut very superficial. The soiiu'what common notion among such1 critics is. that Christian Science teaches that shi should be ignored. J bv ignoring it Christian Science does not deny that sin seems very real to mortals, hut it j t aches that sin is net real in the j i sense that it is not of God and is j i not eternal, and it has no power be- , j j end the power that the human mind ipAos to it. Mrs. Eddy lias well said in Miscellaneous Writings: "bear not sin lest thereby lt master you: but fiar to sin" (p. 1o:m. Christian Science, reveals the unreality of sin by ihstrovir.g tlbr fear and healing the love of sin. and tt aches that, to say there is no sin ami at the same time commit sin, is a sin in itself.

WHAT THE m:wsiai'i:k copii:kiii:ai)sm (St. Louis Post-Dispatch) The German-American alliance of New York has adopted a resolution condemning Prcs't Wilson's latest note te Germany and urging peace-loving people, "especially Americans of German origin," to protest against any attempt to draw this country into the European war. The resolution should lirst be directed to the American newspapers printed in the German language. Their attitude and utterances are the greatest menace to the preservation of peace. Two of these newspapers deliberately reprint the absurd falsehood that there is a secret alliance between the United States and Great Kritain. The effect of this lie is to discredit the government of the United States. It is an attack upon the character and purpose of the president and his associates in oltice. It is a charge that they have betrayed their trust and violated the constitution and the laws; that they have usurped powers they do not possess and. intrusted with the honor and interests of our government, have secretly, without authority, conspired to support and promote the interest of a foreign government. If this charge' is true, the president shenild be impeached. Hanging would be too Roeid for him and his official associates participating in or having knowledge of such a conspiracy. The treacherous intent of the charge is obvious. It i.s designed to anger Americans of German origin by falsely representing the American administration as hypocritical and dishonest, a.s secret enemies of Germany directing the "overnment's. policy to promote the interest of Great Kritain. It angers the German people in Germany by falsely representing the American government as having hostile intentions towards Germany and as working underground to serve the interests in the war of Germany's enemies. Little less damaging and misleading, though less bold, are the comments of newspaper like the Westliche Post, which charge the American government with partiality and misrepresent the sentiment of the American people. They criminally mislead their readers and grossly misinterpret the American opinion and American pur- , ,)OJ!t. to th. t;i.rm:in pupie There is no course so menacing to peace as this policy of falsehood and misrepresentation which pre cuts that (dear understanding and mutual confidence between two people and two governments which is the foundation of amity and peace. These foreign-partisan newspapers do not want peace, they merely want peace with Germany at any price and war with Germany's enemies at any cost. The measure of their folly is shown by the effect of their Mind 'and conscienceless partisanship which foments hostility between GermanAmericans and Americans, and between Germany and the United States. Speech is free in America. There is-o right nor wish tt put restraint j upon the freedom of utterances en joyed by the loreign-language press. Kut freedom courts responsibility of newspapers professing American "loyalty, but discrediting the character and purpose of the government and misrepresenting to a foreign nation the character of the government and sentinunt of the people in a crisis affecting the honor and vital interests ()f m,rioln responsibility for this course of thl.,(. 'pperhead newspapers rests u it h iho Americans ofl rnan origin tiiir.-, 1 wi peace ap, Kl ep peace if peace may bo kept and without sac , rifa-ing Annrican honor, sovereignty, ; :ghts and sa f ety. All Americans ardently desire peace, but they pasoniate!v love freedom and ery and Uath the world has ever known, and that, as sin disappears, these efu , ts of sin w ill disappear also. The present fruits of Christian Science are to bo found in the healing of evry known disease, false appetites of every kind are destroyed, discordant '.-.isiness conditions yield to the law of harmony, and every phase of human activity is made to glorify God. divine love.

PAPERS SAY justice. They stand with their government in support of right, law and humanity "without compromise and at any cost." in general. OITt SOCIAL OFFKXnF.KS. (Pittsburgh Dispatch.) Organized society views with tolerant aspect the conduct of individuals so long as this conduct, personal or collective, does not violate the rules which society has adopted l'or its own safety, comfort and convenience. One seller of dope, or one dope fiend, does not constitute much of a menace, but when they get so numerous as to bo counted by the thousand something's got to be done. This w?s done by congress when it passed the present stringent federal law regulating the sale of narcotics. Users of dope in large centers of population have been hit especially hard by the deprivation they have suffered, as has been often noted by the newspapers since the statute went into effect some months since, but interest in its effects has been somewhat revived by a report a few days ago from Dr. Kate H. Davis, commissioner ef correction in NewYork city, stating that in the institutions under her control there had been an increase of 50 per cent in number of inmate's in If) months, much of which was due to the restraint to which drug users have been subjected, anel to the conviction of illegal drug sellers; also to lengthened terms of imprisonment which magistrates have been imposing upon offenders. Dope, drink, poverty and discord are the major causes of broken laws and broken homes; they always have been and always will be until the causes are removed. If this is possible. And removal of the causes is the chief remedy. How to deal fairly and effectively with people of this class is and ever has been a world problem. While some ef the minor manifestations may be safely treated with easy methods, these should not apply always Humanity in the handling of criminals or criminal tendencies need not imply mushy sentimentality. Honor methods in prisons and reformatories are sound eneiugh in theory, but they should be carried out with the full knowledge that the men they are expected to help are in confinement because of dislmnorable acts. The best honor method in prison is the prevalent honor methoel outside of prison humane treatment and equal and exact justice to all. Rut the woman who has been committed 2 00 times to Klackwell's island in 10 yearn might just us well be allowed to stay there, since it is a resort which seems to please her right well. ANOTIIEK FALLACY. (Muncie Press.) It is estimated that American tourists annually spend from S150.000.000 to $J50.000.000 abroad, and some of the newspapers of the country are felicitating the commercial interests on the supposed fact that this money will now be spent in seeing America first, thereby increasing business and restoring a little of the old-time prosperity. This is all very fine except for one thing, and that is that most of this money probably won't be "pent In s eing America, for It is to be remembered that there is a certain portion of our population which prefers to spr no us money in i.nrope anu w in eio '.ther by porson or provy if such a in' ?n.s;ble rhese lovers of i J ! spend its money in Europe and will do the other side of the Atlanthose rs. hothat 0lThese Inr.ntiin nro consumers, not nroducers. ,,c,,.,11v encneerl in fho nrdii. .
