State that Secretary Lansing is preparing a posi- tive demand on the British overnment that the Win- , American vessel “detained at Buenos Aires thru fear of British seizure, be guaranteed safe conduct. 'The demand, boiled down, "according to the vessel's owners, is “Hands off the “Winnebago.” We feel better already. This Proposition of waiting pentil the thing is done and then entering upon a series F of diplomatic remon- ‘strances, etc., has bruised ‘our American pride pretty considerably. Under the ' Bryan masterpiece of treaty making John Bull might ex- ectorate in Uncle Sam’s and we couldn’t swat for a year or so after- ward. ) This Lansing way is dif- ‘ferent. He takes the bull “by the horns, while it is still pawing the dust. It’s an improvement, more | American, more Bunker- Hill-like. © You have struck another | popular chord, Mr. Lansing. A JITNEY POEM AVID DALY, manager of the Houston Electric company, a Stone-Webster property, parodies “Dear Heidelberg” in an after dinner speech. The Sentiment expressed will appeal to the street rail- Way magnates everywhere, hence we reproduce this poetical gem: 5 "Oh, 1915! oh, 1915! thy days we'll ne’er forget; The dark blue haze of jitney days hangs around about us yet.” And will keep on a hanging around, David. That blue haze has a London fog beaten to a fare- ye-well for persistency. THERE ARE a round dozen German steamers, a German cruiser and a collier interned at Honolulu, in addition to the great number of the kaiser’s vessels in New York and other United States ports. Maybe the | Quickest way to get a first-class merchant fleet would | be to start something with Germany. TWELVE HUNDRED Santa Fe employes in the San Bernardino, Cal., shops have received a 20 per cent increase in working hours, placing the big plant on the longest working schedule in five years and with a total payroll equal to the highest ever known there. Now, that’s what we call tangible evidence of returning pros- Perity. IT NOW appears that London Globe was suppressed because it said the government was lying. Carry out that policy in America and there wouldn't be much of a free press left save The War Cry. COUNTESS DE BELLEVILLE’S death sentence has been commuted by the kaiser. Titles by “divine right” still have some “pull,” with the titled. HOUSEWIVES OF Montclair, N. J., are going to standardize house help. Hired girls who get certificates will be paid $25 per month. Come West, hired girl, come West! FOUR HUNDRED odd thousand majority against New York’s new constitution. Page Grandpa Root in the subway, please, and break the news gently! JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER’S brother licked him in a local political scrap in Tarrytown. We now look for gasoline to go up another cent. AMONG THE pretty dead things is Grandpa Root’s new constitution for New York state.
