[__%46 IIWASHINGS GOSSP WASHINGTON, D. C., June 14? The reason why the war deficiency bill struck a snag in the Senate Ad was further delayed there, was because of that provision t obuy the Jamestown exposition siet and buildings in Chesapeake bay for a naval station. The | Senators sniffed that $1,400,000 propos ed appropriation for the purcnase wun suspicion. It had politics tattooed all over it, and looked like land-jobbing of an approved type. The debate developed the interesting coincidence that the Democratic leader in the Senate, Martin or Virginia. was strong for this appropriation; likewise, Swanson of Virginia, chairman of the naval committee. Also, Secretary Daniels with whose department the Plan originated. But that teas the personal influence brought out conspicuously. The facts adduced were that the old exposition buildings had been valued by the naval officers at $680,000, but nobody had bethought himself to ascertain what the tax assessors in Virginia valued them at. There is sewerage tand a lighting plant on the exposition site and this, with additional land in the purchase, covers 440 acres. By dredging it was said 600 acres could be made available, and there is a 35 foot channel leading to tidewater. The naval medics had pronounced It sanitary, and the site waB protected by armed forts. The availability of the site was not questioned, nor the urgency of some fit place to house the thousands of new naval ana marine recrutis. It was conceded that it could be used at once. The government had to have it?there was no other place that could be made fit within the year. It was the price which the Senate wan suspicious of. It feared it was Intended to "sting" Cncle Sam. There were so many signs of a "deal1* that the wary were cautious. They proceeded to safeguard it. This they did by providing that no sum shall be paid for this property which shall not be determined by the president "to be a reasonable and fair price." The case is significant, as it is firmly believed by many to mark the first "nigger in the wood pile" captured In a piece of legislation in Congre& since the war with Germany started. Tho hlnk anclicatlons for the sec ond officers training camps will be issued upon application on and after June 15 (the camps start in August), and some rules have been announced which are different from those covering applications for the first camps, in some respects, and those intending to apply should know them.

Editorial Comment on Current Subjects 11 1 HAS GERMANY NO ANSWER? From the New York World. President Wilson's note to Russia again emphasises the sinister fact that among all the belligerents Germany alone has no term* ot peace which fill bear the light ot publicity. Since the Chancellor made his proposals tor a conference in December, all offorta to Induce the German government to define the conditions or the general principles of an acceptable peace have been unsuccessful. The . German people are still fed upon empty , and life words such as Field Marshal von Hlndenburg has Just addressed to AX-- T,-i-J-~ f?\P a Harmnn uio ruiouom utuvu *w? ? -??? , peace: I am sure that the army and the people, held together^ the strong hand of our gracious Kaiser, will enforce against any power on earth such a peace as Germany desires, so that the present war will not hate been fonght in vain. What la "inch a peace as Germany ' desires?" We know what the PanGennanlsts advocate, but no responsible representative of the German gov- , ernment dares to tell the German people that that is what they are fighting for and that that is why they are doomed to death and starvation and , ! misery. | President Wilson in his note to Russia did not attempt to fix the precise y terms of a peace that would be acceptst ble to the United States, but he enunk elated the principles of such a peace, s and those principles can be applied to 1- every problem created by the war: t- No people must be forced to live i- under sovereignty under which it does not wiBh to live. No territory must change hands a except for the purpose of securing e to those who inhabit it a fair chanee of life and liberty. ~ No Indemnities must be inslstr ed upon except those that consti? tute payment for manifest wrongs , done. i No readjustments of power must i da made except sucn as win iuuu ' to secure peace of the world and ! the future welfare and happiness !* of Ita peoples. These are not merely the principles of the United States. They belong no B less to Great Britain, which definitely j accepts them in Its present note to } Petrograd, and which declares for Its [SAVE DADS LIFE !

AMERICA IS FIOHTING FOR8T FOR 1 HERSELF. From the'Phlladelphia Record. 4| In the Civil war the purpose tor ' which we were fighting was the preset- <" ration of the Union. But it was apyar- " ent to the far-seeing from the first that the result of the war would be the'> emancipation of the elaves. As the ?jj war went on. the opponents of Mr. Lincoln made every efort to persuade petv pie that the war was being conducted / to free the slaves, and many men, who were loyal to the Union but were not \ abolitionists, lost interest in the war. The draft riots in New York were due not so much to disinclination to serve in the army as to the wrath of the Irish, who were made to believe that they were to be compelled to fight tor the negroes. The presont-day Copperheads sre a pursuing a similar course. We are i fighting for our rights on the high ; seas, which Germany has persistently , attacked. We axe fighting Germany jy In Europe to avert the necessity of fighting Germany as the only means of , nrenervinsr the Monroe Doctrine, whlct Ii our primary line of defense against European autocracy. Decidedly, we are fighting in our own quarrel, and we are defending our own rights on land and sea. But tho result of breaking the military power of Germany will be the overthrow of autocracy and the establishment of a government of the people, for the people and by the people. We nre intorested in bringing about that desirable result. It appoals strongly to our love of political liberty. But the overthrow of autocracy is only a by-product of our contest to maintain American rights, If we had submitted to tbe German submarine campaign we should have been obliged hereaftnr lo accept the embargo of all our ports whenever two other nations fell to fighting.
