THE WHINING HUN.
TEGL-SE. America nd her allies refuse to negotiate
"prare with criminal nationi, but insist on dictating
peace on their own just terms, tbe German chancellor whinn
of a war lury in America. He misjudges a people who are
proceeding with calm determination to finish an un
pleasant business in the only right way. His whines are
wasted effort, so far as the entente nationi are con
cerned, but they may have a heartening effect on the Ger
man people. Gone now are the boastful threats of world
conquests, and von Herding bends every effort to shpw that
this, on the part of the central powers, is a defensive
war. He even goes to the length of putting the invasion
of Belgium in that class.
That brutal assault on Belgium, a peaceful nation pro
tected by treaty, is one reason why it is well the war
should not end by any negotiated peace. With all its
murder, destruction, rape and unspeakable atrocities, it
represents a great crime for which Germany must be
punished. And that was but one of series of crimes
which have marked thei German conduct of the war from
the start. Civilized peoples will not forget the massacre
cf the Armenians, planned and approved by the German
leaders. The sinking of the Lusitania with its slaughter
cf innocent and defenseless civilians, the bombing of hos
pitals, the crucifixion and torture of prisoners. All these
things and more the Hum must answer for, and in the
allied nations is a will to see that this conflict shall not
reaie until the possibility of a repetition of these horrors
is removed. '
Defending' the Belgian invasion, deploring the recog
niton of the down trodden Gfoho Slavs and approvng
Teuton war methods shows Germany is still an unre
pentant nation, and there must be repentance and atone
ment before there can be peace for Germany. The chan
cellor says that Germany will not grovel, but the whining
note of his speech indicates thai, the grovelling has al
ready bcgim in high places. In the main, it is a groveling
before the home people, to prove how righteous and noble
it the all highest in his conduct of war. In part, it it an
"'fort to influence opinion in neutral nations by showing
hit German motives are not as sinister as? represented.
But, before this is over, Germany will grovel before the
Hies, willing to accept the terms they dictate. Either
that or destruction is the fate of Germany. And those
tormi, while just, should not be gentle. Germany must
pay, and so must her barbarous allies.
With the Turkish armirs broken and routed, the Bul
garians in retreat and Austria striving for a peace con
ference, and with America ju t beginning to fight, there
Women have been wearing to few clothes that they

This four minute tinging plan may also enable I num
ber of patriotic citizens to learn the words of "The Star
Spangled Banner," and then, again, it may not.
You can alto help the government in ha fight f-"inst

Captain Benjamin B. Lipsner predicts that aeroplanes
will take the plaec of mall trains within the next five years
and even Kipling's dream of a trans-Atlantic mail service
on the air line may come true by that time.
More of Mrs. Lilly Butch't property is being, disposed
of by the federal custodian of alien property, indicating
that the Busch protests of loyalty haven't made any more
impression at Washington than they have elsewhere.
Agricultural exhibits at the fair are convincing evi
dence that Oklahoma has produced large crops, despite
the drouth which cut down the yield in some sections tf
the state. And the agricultural reports of the ttate further
substantiate this belief. As a matter of fact, the drouth,
so severe in the southwest, has been allowed to over
shadow the excellent yields of many crops in other sec
tions, and that should not be.
President Wilson is going to open the lilierty loan
campaign in New York, and this is going to be a fine
opportunity for those who are so eager to back the presi
dent. Liberty bonds are going to be for sale from
fifty dollars on up, and every bond worth what it costs.
Those who fail to subscribe for their share, are slackers.
Subscribing for one bond and getting a button won't make
a patriot of the man who is able to buy two or more. Go
the limit and set the limit high.
From the time of his arrest, there never seemed I
doubt of the conviction of William Madison Hicks. He
was so palpably foe of this country that there was no
shadow of doubt about his guilt. And this is a rough
season for enemies of the United States, whether they
fight at Huns in the trenches, or as wild-eyed ontori m
our own land. Perhaps a man it a fool to talk as Hicks
did, but he is a dangerous fool, and belongs in prison
both is i safety ind punitive meisure. With Haywood
already serving time, along with hundred of his lieu
tenants, and with Debt under sentence, we ire making
progress in cleaning up the breed. Few orators will
raise'their voices against this next Lilerty loan, and draft
resisters are becoming rare. The Hunt within our gates
are being corrated, and it it gratifying to note that one
who dared voice sedition in this loyal state is facing his
just deserts.
