COUT OVCODUCOOOG KUGLER’S COM There are some people who think ey can muzzle @ paper by withdraw ing their subscription, tat it is only in rare cases that anyone discontin 4 loy that ues a paper because it exp alty to the government in tern cannot be mistaken The Tribune knows of papers in the state which are not squarely under the flag and which are timidly patri otic and doubtless Edward Kugler, the Wadghburn mine operator, will be able to find one which will suit his pro German and pacifist nature. it is really a badge of honor to havé one cease reading a newspapes wolely because of its Americanism. Mr Mugler is enjoying American institu: tions, the protection its army and navy affords, but he stops reading a paper because it is “against the Ger mans” in this crisis. The day is fast coming in Jakota when enemies of the republic will be interned and seditious papers published in English, or the emy Janguage denied the use of the mails There is a propaganda among the farmers of this state which i# any. thing but patriotic, and doubtless its reptillian doctrines have affected Mr Kugler, who is so pro-kalser that he can no longer support an American paper. Mr. Kugler’s letter, published on the first. page of The ‘Tribune yesterday, is a’ tribute to this paper's stand in the national crisis. Over his own sig nature, Mr. Kugler states that he sym pathi with the enemy, who may thid very hour, be slaughtering Amer- icans on the high seag or pouring shtapne) into their bodies as they lle in the trenches, enlisted In the great battle of democracy to make America safe for all its citizens, even Mr. Kug, ler, recreant as he is to his oath of allegiance, if he ever took such an oath The Tribune accepts Mr. compliment. We also glory in position he gives us as an anti-( man newspaper. His attitude is not that of the loyal German-Americans of the Slope, thousands of whom ha given their boys to assist in protect- ing the republic and ridding a war- weary world from the oppression of German militarism. For such white-livered North Kugler’s the pacifists and pro-German sympathizers as Kugler we have nothing but contempt. He must elther come under the ed as flag sooner or later or he tre: all traitors are in times of war. With England too busy to arrest them, the militant Pankhursts, home sick for jail life, find accommodations in Australia, PUT THEM DOWN! The department of justice, in its raids on I. 'W. ‘W. headquarters all over the west, has confined itself to seizing documents. These papers will be used jag evidence before, grand juries, ies The proceeding is regular and prop- er, and indictments will undoubtedly follow. But why base ft on the es- poinage act or give it the aspect of a war necessity? This country should be rid of the ‘w.

And the worst of it all Is that every- body blames the poor child. He is called “bad” and he endures a pun- ishment which hia elders really de- serve because his “badness” is mostly the result of their laziness, selfishness or stupidity. Parents who are slackers add big sums to the cost of education. So here is a chance for patriotic elders to try a new kind of war-time econ- omy. Help the teachers by raising children who know how to behave in school. Then see that they do be- have.

What Immediately followed; how we made -ourselves shipshape the best we could, and held on for the next few hours, has comparatively but little tc do with the interest of this story. Len- yord brought the two men on deck, and as Dade was no sailor, but more likely to prove faithful, he was sent down the Indder to assist Masters in the fire: room. Dugan tock the change in ad ministration aboard with sen-going philosophy, seemingly feeling no ant- mosity because of the rough handling received, and went to work under my orders with hearty good will. We were all four of us capable seamen, and an hour of hard work placed the Indian Chief in very fiir condition, so far ng deck and running rigging was con- cerned. At the end, however, standing on the forecnstle, and staring aft, 1 had fnith that we could handle the hooker, even with that small crew, and bring her safely into the harbor of St. John's, Our earlier weather predic tions were not yet verified, nt least to any serious extent. Indeed there was nothing particular to worry about, ex- cepting that temporary steering ap parntus, and It had worked long enough now so 28 to give me confidence, “What do you make of ft, Mr. Lea- yord?” I questioned, Indicating both sen and sky by a wave of the hand, “Was It a circular storm, leaving us outside of its radius?” “No, sir; It’s not that,” and he drew the back of his hand across his lips. “Dugan an’ T talked about It on the maljnyard yonder, an’ ‘tis our judg. ment, str, that it’s Just a slow brooder, There won't be no quick change, but the weather ’N Just gradually get heavier until we're scuddin’ under bare s, It'll be maybe termorrow night before we gets its full weight.” But you have no doubt we'll weather 1t7” “Barrin’ an aceldent.

For an instant I had to grasp the side rail, shading my eyes with an arm; then 1 struggled fotward, until my hands gripped the wheel. “Why didn’t you eall for help?” I asked. “This was too much for any woman. I never realized forward how it was blowing.” She swayed against me, clinging to mny sleeve. “It—it does kick some,” she panted, “and I was almost afraid I might let 4 Struggled Forward Until My Hands) Gripped the Wheel. go.

I have sent the two mates below for an hour's rest. There is nothing for us to do now, but hold on until the storm abates. I'll siinply lash the wheel, and stand by. You are absolutely exhaust- ed, and must get below—you will go?” “Yes if—if you think it best. I am so tiged—the strain of it; the fear I could not hold out—” “I know.” ;1 bent and kissed her, and she clung to me. “But do not think of that any longer; you-must go to your room at once and le down.” “But -you will stay“on deck all night?” “Not unless the storm increases. In an hour or so I'll call the others, and lie down myself. Come, dear, you be- long in the watch below.” That certainly seemed a lonely deck after she had disappeared down the ladder. I had served many a quiet watch at sea, many a'memorable one, but that hour taught me the real les- son’ of loneliness, We: were. driving forward recklessly into a wall of dark- ness, utterly impenetrable to the eye. What horror might be lurking just ahead of the plunging bow, no imagina- thon could picture. From where I stood, clutching the spokes of the wheel, I could not even trace the yards of the mainmast, nor could I perceive on either side the water through which we drove. Yet it was not this which pulled so at my nerve. I had stood at the wheel often before guiding a great ship through impenetrable blackness, and amid the immensity of the ocean. But then I was one of a crew, alert and ready, merely performing,my part of a given task, But now I could not drive from me the consciousness that I stood there alone; that on all that space of deck forward only one solitary man crouched in the blackness; that below In the engineroom, and stokehole, only two more; already worn and weary with toll, stuck grimly to thelr work; that under my control this great freighter, loaded almost to the deck beams, was flying before the storm, plunging through the wild waters of the mid-Atlantic, with death hovering above In the shriek of thestorm. Yet I cling to it grimly, no longer making any attempt to hold any settled course, but merely choosing the easter way Io which to meet the force of the storm, It was two o'clock when, too, thor. oughly wearied to stand the strain tonger, I sent Dugan below to call the mates.

Dugan was first to lay out upon the-footropes, and I felt no regret when Olson slipped past mein the top, bawling in my ear: f “Let me go next, sir, you haven't been at this sort o’ job lately.” * However, I made It in my turn, the wind driving me flat against the spar, the footrope dancing madly: beneath { my welght,’the flapping canvas of the loosened: sail as stiff as‘iron.

It was a:ten-minute battle, and when-I got safely back ‘into the maintop every muscle of my body throbbed with pain, and I sank’ down against the mast, struggling to.regain my strength. I had my head buried in my arm, conscious only of the: wild Icaping of the mast, and the sickening sensation caused by its constant swhy- ing, when Dugan’s shout serit the blood pounding to my heart. He stood up- right, clinging to a stay, staring forth into the smother off the port bow. “Look, sir! ,There’s a boat! ‘See, yonder; she'll top tle crest in a sec- ; ond—there !” black speck in the midst of the break- ing spray—but could not be sure of what it was, “Are you certain it {s a boat?” I questioned. “The thing had no shape to me. What do you say, Olson?” “A boat, sir; there was a slip o’ sail hoisted; it’s my notion she’s hoved to, ridin’ to a drag. Thereshe is again.” Aye, I got a fair view that time, as the cockle-shell was thrown high on the crest of the wave. It was sick- euing to see that black object hurled high up against the sky, and then dis- appear utterly into the hollow. The boat must be hove to; there would be no living otherwise in that sea,‘and the very fact that it remetned afloat was evidence of sailors aboard. 1 drew_my- self to my feet, clinging with one hand to a stay, hollowing the other to make my Volce reach the deck below. “Mr. Leayord!” “Aye, aye, str.” “There is a small boat off the port quarter, riding to a drag.” *y 4 “A what, sir?” 7 “A ship's boat off the port quarter— too far away to tell what's aboard her.

TAXATION TO PLEASE THE ENEMY. x (Chicago Tribune.)- Senator McCumber of North Dakota has some wise things to say to his colleagues which. ought to strike home. They are weil worth repeat- ing: > “If I felt that I were against my own country in this present warfare,” he said, “I think I would do just what is being done in this, senate to create dissatisfaction among the people, to lessen their. ardor for the conflict and hinder our war efforts. An enorm- ous taxation scheme would be my chief anti-war weapon in that case.” The percentage figures presented in the senate are,am eloquent commen- tary on Senator McCumber’s remarks. It’ appears that the proposed taxation bill, in addition to: reyenues already authorized, will raise 35.3 per cent o7 forthe 1 year. But, A Great Britain se bg we .
