Those were establish- 4 long ego in case of just such an ‘emergency as had arisen and noth- ing more is being asked of Germany ‘than would be sought from any other WALSH RESPONSIBLE. $ ‘Walsh of the federal in- Bustrial relations commission is still speaking and in his latest address to B St Louls audience admits that he 2 responsible for all ecrit- n an attempt to justify his action Mr. Walsh declares that “my duty was to investigate the truth, mnot That ! it gggss h ; % Hit g though the consequences were mot to be suffered until the vessel was well out on the high seas. ‘Whether Muenter, alias Holt, was the camse of it matters little. If it was Meunter he 5 no longer a men- ace except through such influence as. his example may have, but it shows none the less that it is possible to not only plot but carry out the plans for just such catastrophes in this country. Such of course are acts directly against the neutrality of this coun- try. They ecall for the closest atten- tion regardiess of the flag which such vessels fly or the port to Which they were destined. If the practice it not stopped American vessels will be sub- jected to as great perils as any other, even as Muenter had declared that it was possible it was on one of the American steamers that he had placed his dynamite. The suppression of ,such infernal machines must come through the co- operative efforts of the port and the steamship companies. It may mean additional expense but such is the price of neutrality and prevention and. it is worth all its costa. THE SAYVILLE STATION. There is nothing surprising in the action of the government in taking over the powerful wireless station at Sayville, L. I It has been antici- pated for some time and is the logical step as the result of' the suspieion which has been directed against the plant. By the retention of that station and its operation under German direc- tion even though under a censorship by this country there was imposed upon the company great responsibili~ tics for the maintenance of neutrality, As long as such was honestly main- tained there could be no cause for interference but there was a duty which this country owed to itself and to every other country to live up to its proclaimed position of favoring: none of the belligerents. ‘With a sufficient basis therefors for believing that the station was being operated as an aid to the German cause, or that it was likely to become such mo other course was left apen to the government. The business of the plant and the income of the company are not to be interfered with as long as it is legitimately conducted and by placing naval operators in charge and insisting upon coples of the code when code messages are sent it i pre- | th pered to insist as never before that that station respect the country in ‘which it is located. As long as this is done Sayville will continue’to reach across the ocean with its powerful electrical wave but the action which has been taken simply means that if there are found to be methods by which even this eontrol ean be cir cumvented there will remain nothing to do but close it up entirely uatil the end of the war. ,- EDITORIAL NOTES. Holt may have gotten the nameyof the steamship wrong but he had the date correct. Davy Jones' locker ought to be able to make a large display of British flags by this time. ‘That a nmew orank appears on the scene every now and then does not prove that they are self starters.

We cannot all be as conscious of the fact that “there is a natural body and there is a spiritual body” as Paul was when he proclaimed this truth to the Corinthians. ‘We love to sing about “sweet flelds beyond the swelling flood stand drest in living green,” but we have not a good mental photograph of it because we do nmot sense that both matter and spirit are substance and have form. The spirit is the life, and as it has borne sthe imege of - the earthy, so also Is it equipped to bear the image of the heavenly. The inva- 1lid’s hope abides in his faith in the divine promise: “If ye abide in me and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” The inquiry is ma ‘Should a doc- tor tell the truth?” What's the use? What is a doctor's honest opinion compared to the look of assurance and wisdom he can put on in the sick room, and the colored decoctions he can leave in a glass for us? What would be the use of demanding _the truth from the doctor when we whiten with anger if the preacher dare tell it to us. - It is better for an invalid to be hypnotized than it is to_have the frigid truth spra¥ed upon him— it is better for his health and we have no fear that any doctor will deny this. If the truth is what a tactful physi- cian keeps us from.knowing and this lack of knowledge .does us most good. His words of hope and brown bread pills have saved many a patient, where his honest opinion might have proved to be fatal. The doctor's pre- scription answers every purpose with- out his opinion. We do not want people telling us the truth for it makes them offensive. 'A joy-letter is a modern invention designed to cheer up the invalid end it does it.. Every one cannot write a joy letter, but those who can should devote a liftle of their time and men- tal energy in making pleasing word- pictures for the shut-ins. A _good book is an Inspiring companion, but it cannot make the magnetic impression a written message does. The joy- letter is an unexpected caller, and it it finds the invalid in an unreceptive mood, 1t can wait for the mood to change. Those who have an invalid triend, or a house-bound acquaint- ance, can discover the value of this in- vention by ng words of cheer for em. A g have sald “a¥joy-letter is better than medicine” 1t'is always a good letter to the invalid. Little joy-ietters fre- quently, are better than long joy-let- ters occasionally. Do not have too much to say, but say well what you have in mind. The kindheartedness which prompts the writing of such a Ietter 18 of itself healing balm, Just try it. I wonder if we are born with a prejudice against all tribes but our own? How easy it seems to be to cast a slur upon members of any tribe or soclety except the one with which we are assoclated. And when I think that “he that is possessed with a prejudice is possessed with a devil” it seems to me as if most of are in bad company most of the time. Preju- dice has been called the child of ig- norance and the reason of fools; a crooked point of view and a creator of violence. It is the greatest obsta- cle to progress. There is nothing that slays prejudice like knowledge and association. Some prejudices are so subtle that we are not conscious of them although they are easily recog- nized by others. They can get into the mind easier than they can be got out of it. It is doubtful if any of us are entirely free from them; and yet, it is elaimed that an old prejudice is better than a new conceit. It is among the impossibilities of life to be absolutely free from both.
