This then is the inevitable conflict between autocracy and de- mocracy. Abraham Lincoln said that two principles stood face to face from the, beginning of time. The one is the common right of humanity, the other is the divine right of kings. The common right of humanity gets very little consideration from men like Emperor Wilhelm. Born to the purple, he knows little or nothing of the emotions that surge 'through the breasts of the common people, the proletariat. Speaking of Wil- helm’s kind, President Wilson in his Flag Day address said:—*"These men have never regarded nations as peoples, men, women and children as like blood and frame as themselves, for whom Governments. existed and in whom Governments had their life. They have regarded them merely as serviceable organizations which .they could control by force or intrigus, bend or corrupt to their own pur- poses. _ They - have regarded the smaller states in particular and the people who could be overwhelmed by force as their natural tools and in- struments of dominatfon.” ‘And yet there are many men nM women' in this republicc, men ‘and women who came from the Father- land because they could not bear liv- ing under such a rule, who have per- sistently shouted for the success of German arms, guided by one Wilhelm who threatens disaster because a common people throws one of his compatriots off a throne. =By the grace of God the day is not far dis- tant when Wilhelm will get the same treatment accorded to Constantil.e. If the Entente Allies, backed by the bulk and strength of the United States, are, not able to do it, his own people will some day awaken to the situation and send him where he be- longs, into the scrap-heap- “ALL IS FOR THE BEST.” There are. many people worrying now because of Professor Irving Fisher's statement that as a nation we are 99 per cent. physically unfit. There is but one whole man out of every hundred in the United States. Let the pessimists worry. We have been in the same condition for years. We were wprse off as thirteen colonies, yet we succeeded in adminis- tering a severe beating to England. The boys at Bunker Hill were prob- ably poor specimens of physical at- tractiveness, as viewed from the standpoint of the alarmists; yet the boys there.came through in, fine fashion. The same was true with our sailors in the war of 1812. And again in ’61, the. youngsters on both sides of the struggle would probably not measure up to the requirements of Professor, Fisher, and his idealists. ‘We were more than 99 per cent. ‘physically unfit in 1898, and on top of that, the boys in blue fought against the ravages of embalmed beef; but they too delivered what Uncle Sam wanted. Somewhere in Caesar's commentar- ies, or perhaps it is in Cicero's ora- Yons, may be found the line, “We should worry.” Or, as Eugene Fleld once blazoned it to the world, “De gustibus - mon disputandum est,” ‘Which meaneth, as he translated it, that “All is for the best”. Describing the successful drive at Messines, Major-General Maurice said: “Our real success*was due to the suc- cess of our artillery fire and the su- periority of our .artillery fire over the Germans'. This artillery superlority iin turn was due mainly to our su- periority in the air service which di- rects the artillery.”. Just as Has been contended by American military. ob- servers. What this country needs is to develop its airplane service. Avia- tion, an art born in this country, has been long neglected here. And yet our: American manufacturers stand ready to bend every effort in bringing batk lost laurels so soon as the War Department decides upon a course. The airplane is the eye of the army. At any rate von Hindenburg is an optimist. Even after the great blast along a nine mile front he now'an- nounces that the British drive has failed. Perhaps it has, but what did the Hlndenbul‘c line drop back for, a: punt? ‘White, blue and red are the colors decided upon for Russia’s new flag.

New York, June 16.—As an aid to recruiting and to showing young men of military age the type of men al- ready enrolled, nine branches of the service were called upon today to furnish marchers for a military pa- rade up Fifth avenue. Regulars, Na- tional Guardsmen, ‘allors, marines, artillerymen, cavalrymen, signal men, machine gun men, bandsmen and am- bulance men were assigned to take part in the demonstration.

SOON TO BE CALLED INTO FIELD mmwmmmmnmnm HEligible For Service n Amerioa’s New Legions. APPLYING THE FUNDAMENTAIDS OF A SOLDIER. ' The Young Soldler has now been initiated into the fundamentals which make up the fighting man. All war is a serious business—modern war & business of tremendous gravity It is not play; with the nation at war, there {5 no time for play. “America must realize,” say the French gen erals, “that she cannot play at war. ‘Whether -or not America plays at ‘war or preparing for war depends upon whether the Young American Soldter, individually. and ively, 80es about his training in s epirit of vlay, or in deadly earnest. The Young Soldier would do well to ses the moving pictures—if he has the opportunity—delineating the work of the British in bullding up their im- mense citizen armies.” If he can do 80, he will note at onge that they did not “play at war” The driving earneswness of their training in England—which reached fruition in France against the Hin- denberg line—differs entirely from the spirit in which such training has been undertaken by a nation at peace. And so in every duty which is now assigned to the Young Soldier, how- ever trivial it may at first seem to him, he must remind himgelf that his Country is actually at war—that he must learn these things for early application in the battle zone. It is true that details of his train- ing may altered or modified to suit the conditions of warfare, but the fundamentals will remain the same. - And these fundamentals -—obedience, discipline, intelligence’ initiative, teamwork espirit de corps —have always won battles and wars, and will continue to win battle and the trolley company, in the ‘“near side stop” of cars. It is the tendency of some passengers, alighting near the front of the car, to essay to cut across the street in front of ‘the car. This hinders and annoys the Motor- man and is a dangerous practice. ‘Wait till the car passes. L - The action of one of -our factories in opening a co-operative store for employes is one of the biggest things in the history of the city.” Gone are the days, here at least, when the heel of Capital exerted its powerful in- fluence to grind labor deeper into ob- livion. Cpital and Labor are beginning to realize the significance of nation- al motto: “E Pluribus Unum.” Ac- tion of the manufcturers is but an- other versjon of the lifelong motto of that great empire builder, Cecil Rhodes, who sajd that the only em- ploye worth having was a eunt-:ud employe. ce e The board of health is doing right in calling for a show-down regarding the insanitary condition in and about a certain Winthrop street house. This is no new discovery for it has been known for a long time, a year or more, that conditions wre bad there. At one time, it is known, conditions- were so bad that the cellar bettom was covered with water and, cesspool overflow. The health board has not exaggerated the existing insanitary conditions of the past. BALTIMORE WITHDRAWS SUIT. Anti-Trust Action. Against Organized Baseball Suddenly Dropped. . Philadelphja, June 16.—The Balti- more club Of the defuffct Federal League yesterday withdrew its anti- trust damage suit against organized baseball. The action of the Balti- more club in dropping the suit was taken, counwel said, because it was convinced. that the ‘representatives of organized baseball” had not en- tered into a conspiracy to destroy the business of the Baltimore club. Nothing was said in announcing the withdrawa] regarding the question of whether organized baseball was be- ing operated in violation of the anti- trust laws. The members of the National Base- ball Commission and attornsys for the defendants said they were not surprised at the action of the Bailti- more olub. The court was.informed there had been no settlement out of court or suggestion of one. It was said by prominent members of organized baseball that the Balti- more club decided to withdraw the suit after its counsel had read the stehographic minutes of the peace meeting held in New York in Decem- ber, 1915. These minutes, called for and placed in the record by the plain- tiff, showed that the Federal League representatives at the meeting. had stated that they officlally represented the league and had authority to act. ODAIMS COMMITTEE HEARINGS. Three Claim Compensation for In- juries Sustained by Falls. John Jackson appeared before the claims committee of the common council last evening and asked for damages amounting to $130.60 for injuries sustained by a fall on Park street, February 12, 1917. He al- leged that he hurt hig arm which cost $80.60 for medical treatment and the remainder was for time lost from em- ployment. It was recommended that the sum of $100 be awarded Jackson. The claim of Miss Alvina Bhrling: for $100 for injuries sustained by a fall on West Main street, near Brad- ley street, January 29 of the present year was tabled. ‘Miss Ehrling claims that the fall caused a broken. leg. Permission to withdraw was granted Fred Seveinberger who asked | for $105 for injuries alleged to have been sustained by a fall on Puu.m. wars whether against the bow . and arrow, the /fiintlock or the fl—e-mh meter gun.
