PEACE AT ANY PRICE Lacks a Great Deal of Being to Champ Clark's Liking At the reception to the Liberty Bell in San Francisco Saturday, Speaker Champ Clark made the fol lowing remarks: "While the other nations of the world are at war, we are celebrating the greatest achievement of peace. The American people want peace, but do not be deceived. It is not any old kind of peace that iswanted. Amer ica wants peace with honor. Peace at any price is a demoralizing, debas ing doctrine." He said that the did not r want, a great standing army or a navy that would overshadow other na tions, but that he wanted an "ade quate navy, whatever that means." "And I propes to find out what it means and vote for it at the next Congress," he said amid cheers. "We do not want war, God forbid," he said, "but if it comes we must emerge conquerors." As practical suggestions for in creasing ,the efficiency of the army and navy he advocated the opening of the doors of the Annapolis and West Point academies and sending drill officers to all colleges that re quest such. He summed up as fol lows: "To preserve the republic, to im prove it, to strengthen and cement it, so that not even the gates of hell will prevail against it."

RIGHTS r ' 1 FINEST PIECE OF PRINTING MACHINERY IN FLORIDA OUTSIDE THE BIG CITIES The Star has just installed a new, tworevolution, Michle high speed press. The press was made by the Miehle Printing Press Manufacturing Co. of Chicago and was sold to us by the Dodson Printers' Supply Co. of Atlanta, southern agents for the Miehle. The press weighs about 11,000 pounds and is the first real first class printing press ever installed in Cen tral Florida. It supercedes a Potter press in this office that has been doing faithful service in this and other of fices, as near as we can learn, for over a quarter of a century. The old pi ess has been shipped to Atlanta, where it will be worked over and do another quarter of a century's service in some other office. The solid brick foundation on which it rested had been enlarged and was all ready for the new press when it arrived. The new Miehle erected by Mr. J. A. Laney of Atlanta, sent here by his firm to do the work. Ilc was ably assisted by Mr, Lewis E. Yoncc, foreman of the Star's book and job printing department, under whose supervision the press will be operat ed. Jf a fine piece of machinery was ever carefully and intelligently put together, each of the thousands of in tricate parts fitted to its proper place and the whole blended into one piece of mechanism to perform its al most human functions, this press has been so handled and this paper wishes to state that Mr. Laney knows his business and does his work in a most thorough manner; you cannot hurry him nor will he slight his work in the smallest particular. The factory says of this press: "After correct mechanical principle and design has been reached, the most important factor in fine ma chine building is material and work manship. That the Miehle press is correct in principle and design has been amply proven by the great suc cess it has attained. In the manu facture of the Miehle no cost is spar ed on labor or equipment to insure the workmanship being of the highest standard obtainable, and the material used is the best that can be bought for the purpose." The new press was installed by the Star primarily for its book, pamphlet and big circular work, but in its present size and shape the Evening Star will be printed on it, and this afternoon's paper is its first work, printed before the press was thor oughly adjusted and regulated and is, therefore, not a fair sample of its work. The press will run safely and do good work at the rate of 2500 im pressions per hour, and this is done with very little vibration or noise. It will deliver the sheets with the print ed side either up or down, as desired, and its register is so finely adjusted that a mechanically perfect register can be obtained. It is -driven by an electric motor installed by Mr. Law ton Bailey- for Mr. H. W. Tucker, which is attached to the frame of the press and driven by a short belt on direct drive. With a "clutch and brake" pedal, on which the operator's feet rest, he can control the press, start and stop" it and "throw off the impression" in stantly. Its twelve form rollers and vibrators give the most perfect ink distribution. that it is possible to ob tain. The public is welcome to come in and see the press in operation. Some of the Users of the Miehle In Florida, Jacksonville has seven, Ft. Augustine four, Tampa, Talla- mm ih V h J " I- I TIIE STAR'S NEW MIEHLE PRESS hassee and Miami each three, with several others scattered over the state. Eustis has recently put in one and Live Oak has one, but until the Star put in a Miehle, there was none between Live Oak and Eustis. Many of the largest pub'-hing houses in the United States use only the Miehle printing press and these presses vary but little from the one in the Star office, except that some of the offices who do color work have the color attachment on their presses. The American Color Type Co. of Chicago has a hundred Miehles; the American Salesbook Co., 20; Baker Vauter Co., Chicago, 31; Butterwick Publishing Co., New York., 35; Unit ed States Printing Co., Cincinnati, 70. There are thirty of them in Atlanta and many in foreign countries, in cluding over seventy in one printing house in Berlin, Germany. E SETTLED COAL MINERS OF WALES STAND BY THE COLORS ( Associate!

"I know that an effort was made to bring about a strike of longshoremen and that when that failed an effort was made to cause a strike of seamen. I know these things a3 well as I know anything that I have not personally seen.

' STAR Won't be Able FRENCH REPORT TV0 SMALL (Associated Press) London, July 2G. When will War saw be evacuated is the question up permost in the minds of British mili tary circles. With virtually all of Courland in German hands and the Germans across the Bug, continued occupancy of Warsaw exposes the Russians to danger of disaster. Copenhagen reports the German oc cupation of Windau. This menace from the north parallels the Teutonic advance on the Lublin railroad. The Germans are reported advanc ing toward Riga from Windau, the wisdom of abandoning Warsaw and straightening the Russian line, causes speculations and it is predicted the Russians will retire. German official statements claim they have taken 45,000 Russian pris oners.

SUNK RUSSIAN STEAMER London, July 20. The Russian steamer General Radetsky was tor pedoed and sunk July 17th. The crew was saved. WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO GIVE UP WARSAW London, July 20. With the German field marshal Von Hindenburg, on the north and General von Mackensen on the south, whipping forward the two ends of the great arc around Warsaw, it is realized here that Grand Duke Nicholas has the most severe task imposed on him since the outbreak of the war in defending the Polish cap ital. Some military writers think it will be impossible for the Russian duke to hold the city and newspapers in Lon don are already discounting for the fall of Warsaw,-saying the Russian army has been under a great diffi culty on account of this salient since the Russian army has been unable to straighten out their line by advances either in east Prussia or in Galicia. This German move, which is a colos sal one, developed with marvelous suddenness. While comparative calm prevails along the western front, the French report that considerable losses were inflicted on the Germans, when the French repulsed their strong attacks on the heights of Meuse. A violent cannonade near Souchez, the bom bardment of Arras and fighting with bombs and petards in the Argonne re gion constitutes virtually all the fighting that has taken place. Berlin newspapers .reaching here, publish what purports to be the de tails of negotiations in 1912, looking to an Anglo-German peace pact and claiming that Great Britain finally refused to enter into it.
