While local democratic newspapers, under or- ders to acclaim everything from Washington that bears the official democratic stamp, are sing- ing the praises of the administration revenue measure, especially for the reason that it hits chiefly inherited wealth and people of large in- comes, the New York World, which is the presi- dent’s most valiant champion in the east, is vio- lently assailing the bill as undemocratic and as class legislation in its deliberate design to exempt the vast majority of the people from bearing any share in this burden of government. “If this measure aims to raise additional funds for na- tional defense,” the World insists, “the contention as to income taxes that they apply only to the rich, because those of small means already con- tribute indirect taxation, does not apply to this case” For various reasons carefully set out, when it comes to national defense, in the opinion of The World, the man of small income is, or ought to be, as keenly interested as his more opulant neighbor and every single man having an income in excess of $1,000 and every head of a family having an income in excess of $1,500 “should be glad to contribute according to his means to the fund which is to safeguard the re- public against aggression from whatever quarter it may appear. That is ‘democracy” and with- out demqeracy a democratic party is useless.” The trouble is that the democracy of the New York World and the democracy of the Wilson claquers do not hit the same key. The bill, how- ever, is not yet through the senate and it will be interesting to observe whether it emerges with its “democracy” unchanged. Battle of Wonderful Results. The fight between the British and German navies off Jutland will go into naval annals as important for several reasons, but is not at all likely to be given full credit for all it accom- plished, It is one of the very few great fights in all history in which both sides won a clean vic- tory. Besides this, it has confirmed Admiral Dewey's theory of the supremacy of the dread- naught, and justifies Admiral Knight's contention that the battle cruiser is indispensable. Advocates of the submarine find support for their claims in this engagement, and the champions of the tor- pedo boats are fully sustained by what happened. Plain people will be content to let the experts have it out in their own way, feeling as did old Kaspar, after Blenheim, that it was “a great vic- tory.” S— Transporting the Troops. The railroads of the country meet criticism of the service given in the recent troop movement with the excuse that they provided trains as or- dered by the War department, and furnished equipment as requested. The movement, the roads say, was made on a war basis, specifica- tions for which require tourist sleepers or day coaches for the men and standard sleepers for the officers. In all the United States only 500 tourist slecpers exist, and these were so widely scattered it was impracticable to assemble them, consequently the men had to ride in day coaches. Furthermore, the railroads have a letter from the War department, expressing the satisfaction of the secretary of war at the manner in which the movement was handled. Oh, very welll But three weeks’ time was re- quired to collect 100,000 men on the border, while thousands yet wait in state mobilization camps, held for equipment which is not available, while the men on the border are not yet fully equipped, thousands of them wearing winter uniforms un- der the blazing sun of Texas. What would have happened if the country had faced a real crisis? All the way along the line the movement of these soldiers has been marked by exposure of in- competence somewhere. Letters from the secre- tary of war expressing gratification for the rail- roads’ share in the work will not hide the fact that the mobilization was delayed, and that under war conditions this delay would have been fatal. The unreadiness of the United States for war has been exhibited with startling clarity, but it is mot too late to apply the lesson. The problem of co-ordinating the railroad a part of a gen- eral plan for national defense is only one of sev- eral things that must be worked out on a better basis. \ Filipinos Turn a Financial Deal. The government of the Philippines has just consummated a deal that recalls the campaign of twenty years ago, when silver was an issue, and we heard so much about the government's profits on “seignorage.” It has disposed of a consider- able part of its hoarded silver coinage to Great Britain for use in India, at a profit of half a mil- lion dollars. This silver was purchased at a low price, coined and stored in the treasury vaults against currency issues. Under the tutelage of the United States, gold is being substituted as the basis for Filipino money, and a large part of the silver held in reserve is thus made of little service. Under this plan the Philippine government finds itself in a most advantageous position when deal- ing with its nearest neighbors, most of which are still on a silver basis, and therefore compelled to pay now a much higher price for the metal needed for coinage, its value being fixed by gold, the in- exorable working of the Gresham law. The pres- ent instance is interesting as showing from what the United States was preserved by the republican party, when it made the fair, square fight to put our national monetary system on a sound and scientific basis. Had the “sacred ratio” prevailed in 1896, the United States today might be buying the debased coins of other countries at an en- ‘hanced price to supplement its supply of money. The efforts of the publicity end of the Wilson administration to work a pulmotor on the Balti- more declaration for reduced cost of living, en- livens the gayety of the season. The ultimate con- sumer is advised that rising prices halted for breath in 1915, and twenty-nine articles of food slipped back one point compared with 1914 prices. How ‘these “slackers” lost their grip is not ex- plained. If meat products slumped 4 to 9 per cent, few households detected the slump, but wheat, flour, cornmeal and sugar scored advances from 11 to 20 per cent. An all-round average rise is the result of the official showing, emphasizing the gulf between democratic promises and per- formances. Twelve good men and true acquitted Orpet of direct responsibility for the death of Marion Lambert. The jury could not go beyond the charge in the indictment, although indirect re- sponsibility was as clear as the snow which formed the unfortunate girl's death bed. — If a small police court fine will not cure the lawless auto driver, perhaps the penalty might be made to grow with the growing offense.

Storyette of the Dly._—— They had parted long years ago. Now, in the deepening shadows of the twilight, they had met again. “Here is the old stile, Mary,” he said. “Aye, an’ here be our initials that you carved, Sandy,” she replied. The ensuing silence was only broken by the buzzing of an aeroplane overhead. Honey-laden memories thrilled through the twilight and flushed their glowing cheeks. “Ah, Mary,” exclaimed Sandy, “ye're just as beautiful as ye ever were, and I ha’e never for- gotten ye, my bonnie lass.” “And_ye, Sandy,” she cried, while her blue eyes moistened, “are jist as big a leer as ever, an’ *I believe ye jist the same.”—London Tit-Bits. . Eugene was a very mischievous little boy and his mother’s patience was worn to the limit. She had spoken very nicely to him several times with- out effect. Finally she said: “You are a perfect little heathen!" “Do you mean it?" demanded Eugene. “Indeed, I do,” said the mother. “Then, mother,” said the boy, “why can't I keep that 10 cents a week you gimme for the Sunday school collection? I guess I'm as hard up as any of the rest of 'em.~Philadelphia Ledger. Ex-Governor Colquitt said in a discussion of the Texas situation: “Our opponents spoke too soon. They took too much for granted.

New York, July 15.—To the Editor of The Bee: In your issue of June 27 appears the following : “The pacifist notion of Henry Ford con- tinue irritating the warrior soul of Henry A. Wise Wood, who poscs as a patriot bold in print Yet on the main essential they are in agreement Both Henry's shun the recrulting offices.” To this I reply that when I am needed I shall be found ine the ranks, as shall every other man of 50 years who, the words of Colonel Roosevelt, is worth his salt. HENRY A. WISE WOOD. Money and Irrigation. Nortl Platte, Neb., July 16.—To the Edi- tor of The Bee: W. H. Campbell, a Ne- bragka sand hiller, complains of high rates of interest to sandhillers. The late demo- crat federal reserve banking law allows any member of its system to offer any kind of their short-time obligations to its board of seven directors; the directors can approve them. There are $500,000,000 “shinplasters™ lying in the United States treasury to dis- count them. No matter how worthless such obligntions may be, in this way they can be floated and the financial graft of the sys- tem maintained but in no way can a farmer borrow a dollar out of this system. Now comes a rural credit system by the same authority, which, according to W. H. Campbe|l's figures, allows a sandhill farmer to borrow $2,000 on his sandhills, interest 7 per cent, abstract $16, first semi-annual in- terest in advance, $70; $350 comml taken out of the loan, borrower receiving $1,665, the $2,000 still drawing interest— one-fourth of which the ssndhill farmer never get his hands on. We do not make this statement to the derogation of any hon- est democrat, but we would call attention to the fact that democracy is a principle not merely a political party; that all moneys and bills of oredit are based primarily upon farm products and that when a farmer bor- rows money or credits from the federal re- serve system, he is simply borrowing his own wealth from the grafters that have first “buncoed” him out of it. 1. A. Fort of North Platte, wrote the first letter published in The Bee in favor of sec- tion homesteads in the sandhill country of Nebraska. Congressman Neville offered a bill for a two-section homestead. Later someone from lowa offered a bill for one section; these were turned down. Still later a bill for a one-section homestead became known as the Kincaid bill, and became & law. 1 A. Fort of North Platte also called the first irrigation convention, held at Grand Island in 1897. I. A. Fort was a private in the union army during the civil war. You sandhillers and irrigators don’t you forget who your benefactors were! The two paramount questions in the west- ern half of these United States are mon and irrigation. Notwithstanding Wil declaration that there is “no money trust,’ a common wood-chopper knows that the present federal reserve system is the big- gest money trust ever organized on this earth. That it not only controls the com- merce and industry of this country and Europe by financing its war supplies, but its recent boast is that it can now control the commerce of South America. How much longer will the sandhill farmers of Nebraska continue to vote for a system that has already robbed them to a finish and is now offering them a rural credit sys- tem that will make them and their children serfs for life. Let the people take this finance into their own hands and save the margins. LUCIEN STEBBINS. THE MERCHANT MARINE. Cleveland Plain Dealer: The arrival of the submarine Deutschland in Chesapeake bay must be regarded as an epoch making achievement. It proves that the submarine is far more practical than hitherto recog- nized. New York World: Except under the stress of war, no experiment such as the Deutsch- land so brilliantly carried through would be worth while. Little was it thought, as the submarine was developed, that it would be converted to the uses of commerce. But the Germans have demonstrated that it can be made to serve as a carrier of freight, in spite of the vigilance of hostile fleets. Chicago Tribune: The inspiring feat of the submarine Deutschland adds another credit to the account of German resource- fulness and courageous enterprise. It is evident that German practical genfus has gone a long way in the solution of the problems of submarine navigation, and we hope the adventure of the Deutschland will stimulate America to greater effort in this fleld. Pittsburgh Dispatch: It is s tale to fire the imagination, this log of Forced to detour 800 miles to nia's sea dogs, the super-sul 4,180 miles, of which she ma merged. With i knots on the 1,800 sub- n to twenty able to duck two minutes and continue her voyage submerged at twelve knots. Philadelphia Record: As s feat of ses- manship the arrival of a German submarine vessel at Newport News must be considered as adding another to those remarkable ex- rloits, such as the long career of the Emb- den as a commerce destroyer, the eapture of the Appam and her passage of the Atlan- tie to this country, the successful warlike cruises of converted merchantmen, etc., which have already given great prestige to the kaiser's sea fighters. St. Louis Globe Democrat: It is mot cer- tuin, however, that this mea: a maritime revolution. One invention always calls for another. Every impenctrable armament, for example, has stimulated the invention of ir- resistible projectiles The entente allies, by methods we may only surmise, managed to cope with the war submarines while trana- porting troops across the channel. Some device may soon be found to make the use of the mew merchant submarine fm- practicable. But the exploit of the Deutsch- land is, nevertheless, one of the most thrill- ing in the annals of the sea. TIPS ON HOME TOPICS. Pittsburgh Dispatch: Queer how the cam- paigners give the administration credit for prosperity and blame the increased cost of living on the war. Boston Transcript: If those who object to our national hymn béginning with the ab- “‘Oh, say,” would compromise on perhaps the matter might be arranged. Chicago Herald: A number of gentlemen seem to be discovering that their “war brides” have cork legs, glass eyes and other disqualifications they overlooked in their first enthusiasm. Cleveland Plain Dealer: The department of agriculture warns the public that the price of meat will probably stay high. However, people shouldn't eat much meat during this heated spell. Pittsburg Dispatch: bathers off Ca but the judg nets will be all set devouring kind by November, Indianapolis News: If you can't—as a result of age or other incapacity—give your vacation to the country by joining the army, vou might help ‘some by fishing for pre- datory sharks along the New Jersey coast. Louisville Courier-Journal: “What is an academic pacificist?” inquires a reader. Well, for example, a bachelor who believes firmly that if he were a married man he never would say one cross word to his wife, or provoke one from her. Brooklyn Eagle: With a beet sugar crop of 2,000,000,000 pounds the United States is doing its share to sweeten a rapidly souring world.
