In keeping with what was expected if the vote was brought out, the town election on Monday was a republican victory, the entive ticket with one ex- . ception being elected. Keen interest and good weather worked in barmony with the result that in spite of the fact that many of the vaters aro away at the forts or in the training camp there were 565 more ballots cast for selectmen this year than there were two vears ago, and the result cannot be looked upon otherwise than an endorsement of the manner in which the ‘town has been conducted during the past two vears, for though the normal party majority is smaller Selectman Bailey is returmed to of- fice by a majority almost five times as iarge as he received in 1915. The re- rult insures two mors vears of the sound and businesslike administration that has characterized the past two. The one cXception to' a completo republican victery was the election of Michael J. Curran, democrat as asses- sor to stucceed -himself.. Mr. Curran 1s thoroughlv familiar with/the dutles of the office where he has given faith- ful service and it was ynquestionably nis good record in that position which was responsible for his return to that office. One of the leading reasons for the large vote was the contest over the question of license. More votes wera cast on this question than for select- men and how the voters stand con- cernirz this is made evident by the fact that there was twice as large a majority for license as has been given in a good many years. THE LIBERTY LOAN. The campaign for the raising of the second Liberty loan has opened with énthusiasm from one &nd of the coun- fry to the other. There is a reeogni- tion of the fact that there is not only an opportunity given therein. for ev- eryene to do his vart but there fs a duty involved which cannot be side- tracked. There was a commendable respon=e to the first effort to secure funds for the carrying on of the war. The peo- ple of the country were anxious to subgeribe-for a much.larger sum than was desired at that time. On the oc- casion of this second loan a bigger sum is asked for but there is the same determination on the part of the peo- ple to stand behind the government and to lend their dollars in the cause. 1t is thoroughly understood what the ralsing of the loan means, what the money is wanted for apd how effec- tive every dollar that is put into’ it is going to be. 7 But while there are less than five per cent..of the people who subscribed to the first loan it can be readily ap- preciated that this can be more than doubled In connection With the sec- cnd loan without tapping to any seri- do ana it is )u.bly probable that Hol- 1and will be told that it must keep its own necessities at home, and If it eannot get the supplies it needs from Germany it will have to look in other directions. We have ‘been furnighing food to the enemy too long already arid what has been going in that di- rection ean be utilized by ourselves or by our allies. Germany is trying to bring pressure to bear upon this coun- try through Holland and that is just what the Unifed States is not going to tolerate, MORE SHIPS./ There are some who think they can- not understand the reason for the ap- peal which has just been made by the British ship controller in behalf of an inercased production of merchant #hips, but with the handicaps which are being placed in the way of ship construction in different sections it would seem that the object of the an- nouncement and appeal was to bring the people to a deeper realization of the need of not only using every fa- ctlity whica is at our command but to eliminate all obstacles which stand in the way of providing the necessary eooperation on the part of labor. What the U-boat campaign is sc- complishing, in spite of the best ef- forts which are being put ferth by the combined allied forces incinding the assistance which this country is renderiag, is well set forth in the as- sertion that the losses in shipping have been as great since last Feb- ruary as they were during the whole iperiod of the war previous to that time and that it is figured that there will be 200 more vessels sunk betwcen now and spring than the allies, In- cluding this country, can construct. It is evident, therefore, that ewv: ounce of effert which this country can put forth in the way of ship con- struction must Be resorted to. It is certainly not a tme for embarrassing this industry or for letting up in | forts in this direction just because the submarine fighters have had a particularly good week. We huilding many ships but we build more. We owe much to cor al lies but we owe much miore to ou selves for our part in the war is go- ing to Sncreass imstead of decrease, and the guestion of transportation is of the greatest impartance. The state- ment of the British ship controller should therefore bring us to a greater realization of our duty. THE MESOPOTAMIAN OFFENSIVE For the first time in some weeks the war reports contain reference to activity on the Mesopotamian front which indicates that ghe British in that section have been held back sole- ly by the terrific summer heat. resumpticn of the offensive by Gen- eral Maude's forces together with the capture of a Turkish stronghold and the corraling of General Ahmed Bey with his staff and over ‘a thousand prisoners. demonstrates not only the strength of the British in that réglon but that early operations have been started for the purpose of breaking vp any plans which the Turks may have for moving agalnst Begdad. At the samc time the bringing into play of this army in the east and the incneasing of the menace which it offers to the Turks from the rear must be looked upon as part of the pro- gramme for keeping the enemy en- gaged upon all fronts at the same time. For some time Turkey has not been alled upon to do much fighting at \:mn-e Many' Turkish' troops have een sent against the Rumanians and the Russians and recent prisoners on the Ttalian front shew that Turkish troops were being used by the Aus- trians in their endeavor to hold back theé persistent advance of General Cadorna’s army. But with General Maude pushing ahead again, with the Arabs threatening increased trcuble and the probability of an early re- sumption of activities in the Palestinc region Turkey is going to have pien- ty to attend to at home and the Brit- ish force at Bagdad can be expected to render important service now that it has resumed the offensive. EDITORIAL NOTES. September set an example which it might be well for Oetober ‘to follow if it wants to win populgrity.

Every American knows the causes of our war with the German govern- ment. Yet this course would be in- complete if it did not contain a_brief review of the events that finally forced us into war, when at last there re- mained “not other means of defending our rights.”s The soldier of an ‘autocratic’ Kaiser may fight best when he- understands least of the true meaning of the war. To tell him the facts would be to chill his enthusiasm. But the citizen soil- dier of a democracy is entitled to know for what purposes he enters the strug- gle. He fights best when he sees most | with all clearly why he fights. The resolution of Congress declar- ing a state of war (Apr. 6, 1917) ‘ex- presses the immediate cause in these few words: “The Imperial German government has committed repeated acts of war against the government and the peo- ple_of the United States of America.’ Chief among the acts of war were attacks by German submarines on American ships and on unarmed mer- chant ships of other nations carrying America _passegers. - “Vessels of every Kin” said the President in his address to Congress on’ April?2. 1917, “what- ever their flag, their character. thel cargo, their destination, their errand, have been ruthlessly sent to the bot- tom without warning and without thought of help or mercy for those on board, the vessels of friendly neutrals along with those of belligercnts. Even hospital ships and ships carrying re- lief to the sorely bereaved and strick- en people of Belgium, though the lat- ter were provided with safe conduct through the prescribed areas the German government itself anll were distinguished by unmistakable marks of identity, have been sunk with the rame reckiess lack of compassion or of principle * ¢ * The present Ger- man submarine merce is a warfare against mankind.' German Insults and Aggressions. There were other acts of hostility in addition to the submarine warfare. In his Flag Day address delivered a: Washington on June 14, 1817, the President summed up the events that brought on war as follows: .“It is plain enough how we were Torced ifnito the war. The extraordinary insults and aggressions of the Imper jal German government left us no seif- especting choice but to take up arms n defense of our rights as a free peo- ple and of our honor as a sevoreizn #overnment. The military masters of Germany denied us the rizht to be neutral. They filled our unsuspectinz commurdities with vicious spies and conspirators and sought to corrupt the opinion of our peopie in their own be- half. When they found that they could not do that, their agents diligently spread sedition amongst us and sought to draw our own citizens from their allegiance—and some of those agents men connected with the gfficial cmbagsy of fthe German government itself here in our Capital. They souzht violence to Gestroy our industries and arrest our commerce. They tried to iricite Mexico to take up arms against us and to draw Japan into a hostile alliance with he—and that. not by indirection. but by cuzgestion from the foreign office in Berlin. They im- pudently denied us the use of the high seas and repeatedly evecuted their threat that they wou'd send to their death any of our peoole who ventured to aproach the coasts of Europe.” Our Likerty and Safety Involved. Yet even this list of “extraordinary insults and aggressions” does not toil the whole story. Our.motives for war g0 _even decper. Not only our rights and self-respect, but our liberty and safety. are involved. _ Speaking on July 29, 1917. at the officers’ training camp at Madison Barracks, N. Y., the Secretary of State said: “The evil character of the German government is laid bare before the world. We know now that that gov- ernment is inspired with ambitions which menace human liberty, and that to gain its end it does not hesi- tate to break faith, to violaté the most sacred’ rights, or fo perpetrate intol- erable acts of inhumanity * *.* Let us understand oace for all thal this is no war to establish an abstraci principle of right. It is a war which the future of the United States is at stake. The record out of which grows our deep conviction that it is necessary at once to out a curb on so powerful and unscrupulous an enemy is set forth in an official publication .“How the War Came to America.” “Judging the German government now in the light of our honest at- tempt to keep the peace, we could see the great autocracy and read her rec- ord through the war. And we found that record damnable. * * * With a fanatical faith in they destiny of German kultur as the system that must rule the world, the Imeprial government’s actions have throush vears of boasting, doubled dea)hé i and deceit tended toward aggressi upon the rights of others. And there still be any doubt as to which ration began this war, there can be FRETFUL BABIES NEED A LAXATIVE Whn your bd-:y is cross and fretful nces are it is constipated and the chai .|that a mild laxative is all that is neccl— ry to make it comfortable and ha; r:nct bowels are the cause o com‘ad n]to d::ll:lm - d: oldu‘r p..,-l. e condition is 2 Seaerer] thvery sk toduodlop | serious illness.

One ‘thought which vou should keep always in mind is the clear distinc- tion between our attitude toward the Imperial German government and our attitude toward the German ple. The President said in his speech of June 14, 191 “We are not the enemies of the German peopie and they are not our enemies. They did not originate or desire this hideous war or wish that we should be drawn into it; and we re vaguely conscious that we ‘ara | fishting their cause; as they will some | day see it. as well as our own.

According to popular belief the bas- tion cells are “stone sacks.” which. be- jing below the level of the river, are Hable to inundation. but this idea is erroneous. The lower row, jn which there are thirty-six. cells, i on the ground floor. but there ‘are no prison- ers here and the upper story, with the same number of cells. is out of the reach of the river floods. The correspondent was conducted to the cclls on the upper story in which the prisoners are confined at present. The cells open on a corridor which follows the hexagonal construction of the building. On one side of the' cor- ridor are barred windows opening out on the courtyard while on the other side is a row of red painted, iron | bouna oaken doors with slots for peer- ing and pigeon-noles which may be closed at will for handing in food.

Contents of Library. In the library the correspondent found volumes in Russian, French. English, German. Italian and even in Finnish, the last for use of the Fin- nish patriots who ‘under . Former Premier Stolypin’s oppressive ‘“equal- ity law” were tried and imprisoned in Russia. Next in order came a visit to the un- occupied obsolete part of the prison under the commandant’'s house. This consists of real “stone sacks” ~with earthen floors far below the river with windows guarded by bar work. “There.” sajd the procuror. “lang- uishea I believe Peter's son Alexis. be- fore he was tortured to death and the next cell held the beaptiful but un- fortnate pretender.
