Italy, it_i6 well known, is now deeply concerned with the problem how to water power do the work of the coal she so badly needs, Tere in the United States it would be a question of how water power could | be used to such an extent as to obviate the need of additional Inbor! in cox] mines; how, wherever practicable, water power could be made to move machinery as well as trains, 80 that the railroads would have #o much the less coal to haul. H One thing is sure. Anything it might learn about the wider ntili ration of water power as a means of conserving fuel in time of war, the nation could reckon among its solid, permanent assets of economic and industrial efficiency for a peaceful future, + SENTIMENT AND MILK. OML DAYS ago the Chicago Tribune quoted a spokesman for Tllinois milk producers as saying: You may say to your readers that they may have milk or not, as they choose. All of the sob stories about the suffer ing babies don’t go far with the milk producers, and no basis of soft sentiment {8 a just basis to work on, Last Saturday the Attorney General of Mlinois turne. the Federal authorities in Chicago evidence tending to wide plot on the part of dairymen to boost milk prices, By all means keep sentiment away from milk. What the pro ducers and distributers of that commodity desire is cold, hard justice, 1, may be enough can be found to satisfy them. {| Big Gun Fire Too Much for Mascots | HERE are some incidents about} #!tt on er side bolding bim by the mascots in the big naval, ‘be paws d over to prove a nation- battle off Jutland which are). fPVe" boat t ©, ble black Werth repeating.

He went after the enemy relentlessly, riding night and day, penetratli lines, matching raid for raid. ort time his cav- alry came to be as famous as had Wheeler's or Stuart's on the Confed- erate side. Again Grant took note. Without consulting Washington, he made Sheridan commander of the Army of the Shenandoah. This Shenandoah Valley was of first importance to the Confederates. At the moment that Sheridan took his new post, the Confederate General, Early, was jaunching a bold stroke that threatened the capital, Pursu- ing his now familiar tactics, Sheridan attacked Early, threw cavalry around his flanks, harassed and held the advance, Finally Early abandoned T close before Philip H. its Sheridan got his chance. He had done a number Jot notable things in Tennessee and further West, dis- tinguishing himself as & ca iry leader, but bis achievements had been on a rela- tively small scale as compared with ee) events in Virginia.

Instantly Grant took note. That was before the day of Grant's power, but he saw in Sheridan a man of his own calibre, Then Grant waa calied upon to assume charge of the Union Ar- mies, And he made Sheridan com- mander of all cavalry in the Army of the Potomac. From this General the new camp at Montgomery, Ala, takes Its name, There the 37th Divi- sion, made up of Ohlo and West Vir- ginla troops, is being assembled. Up to the time of Sheridan's com- ence.

It came so suddenly that the Union forces flew into panic and fied pell-mell, The enemy, seizing gune and men, pressed on, Sheridan had left Washington the day before and halted for the night in Winchester, Va., twenty miles from the polnt of conflict, He was pro- ceeding calmly to his army when a cloud of fugitiv: appeared on the horizon and he soon was surrounded by his flying army.
