THE CAPE WEEKLY TRIBUNE AND THE CAPE Every Friday by THE CAPE GIRARDEAU PUBLISHING COMPANY. APPLICATION FOR ENTRY AS SECOND CLASS MATTER AT THE POST OFFICE AT CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO.. PENDING. ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR IN ADVANCE GOOD WOMEN AND THE PADDLE WHEEL. Our afternoon contemporary, following its usual custom, yesterday print ed an editorial under a two column heading1, branding the women of Cape Girardeau as being immoral and charging the business men with accepting "hush money" and catering to immoral shows. It was the most astounding indictment that could have been made against the business men of Cape Girardeau and their wives and daughters. The article referred to women who patronzied a certain fair concession as "blondined girls," "plain women, glad to get a little excitement into a dull life in any way that presents itself," and "women who just can't resist a good barker." r mc Any one who paused ten minutes at the paddle wheel concession, saw some woman of prominence, whose character is as pure as the driven snow. Such flagrant charges made against good women have been responsible for many tragedies. Men who revere purity in womanhood and uphold the pancity of the home, seldom reflect upon the virtue of their neighbor's w4fe unless they are prepared to prove the allegations that they make. A man who wantonly does an injury to the reputation of a good woman is as despicable as Judas and is a parasite upon the cloak of decency. It was contemptible to say that the business men who contributed their money and time to give Cape Girardeau the best fair that it ever had, were in need "of hush money or gambling funds, or questionable shows," but it was an abysmal crime to label good women moral derelicts because they spent ,or even gave away a dime or so at a frivolous concession during the county fair. EKTSTTvI t - That charge included the wife or a daughter of almost every man in Cape Girardeau, and yet the writer did not possess the decency to sign his name. Who is the "Booster" who knocks his home and crucifies its women? ON TO LONDON. What is going to happen to London ? That is the question uppermost In the minds of thosa peop'e who have been following the developments In the European war. The Germans' progress at Antwerp seems more important just now than their gains in the battle that has been waging for almost a month near Paris. The Kaiser would rather bombard London than capture Paris, simply be-' - cause the Germans liold England responsible for the war. And with Ant- werp a German possession, London's position immediately becomes one of peril. It is undoubtedly German's plan to attack London with its Zeppelins and other aerial machines. In fact that is about the only safe way the Kaiser has to reach the English metropolis. London would no doubt be an easy mark for a fleet of airships to attack at night, especially when the city is almost hidden by fog. A bombardment of this kind would be the worst calamity that could befall England. Rob ' King George of London and he has scarcely anything left. To bombard that city, which might mean its destruction by fire, is terrible to even contemplate, but it is the price of war. The European conflict has become a campaign of extermination. Germany will do to the Allies what they will do to Germany, and the world must watch the slaughter while it 'patiently waits for the end. i The capture of Antwerp, which now seems inevitable, may mean the turning point of the conflict. England, no doubt, would rather end the war than to have London reduced to ruins, and the Germans are going to shat ter the city if they can The one question is: How can London defend herself against a fleet of " airships that are stationed less than an hour's ride away? As soon as Ant werp falls, "On to London" will be the German slogan. WHEN IS A BOOSTER When a booster begins to swing the hammer, he is like a pecan that has become crossed with a pig nut good for nothing except to be cracked. And that is why we cracked the " booster" who knocked the fair. But every community has a booster who is adverse to boosting. They are like grass chiggers you usually find them where they are least expected. The "booster" who paraded at the county fair last week, looking for some thing obscene instead of admiring the show, discovered a game which has been here annually for many years. In other years, we suppose, this "booster" wore a blind bridle while visiting the fair. It is enough to make brave men shiver to try and imagine what that "booster" would have said had he stumbled on to those four coops of game chickens, and fighting games at that But the world is big and it must revolve. So why worry? The ladies who were appointed to raise money enough to support the library, have finished their task. Isn'tit about time the men were beginning to collect the funds necessary to remodel the building? Somebody ought to land on that "Booster" with a fly-swatter. Speaking of the fair again, hoa'd you like to see it repeated this week? It is said there was a chewing gum slot machine on the fair grounds last week. "Booster," please notue. FAIR PREMIUMS ARE ANNOUNCED BY SECRETARY Huge list Compiled By J. T. Nunn, Jr., Is the Largest In Many Years.

Nunn, Jr., Secretary of the Fair and Park Association, yesterday announced the list of those who won premiums at the county fair last week. The list included the names of COUNTY HERALD.

"The list is about the largest we have ever awarded," said Mr. Nairn, and the premiums are better than ever before. But the people who had exhibits are so well pleased that we feel elated over last wppVb wnrl I "Since the fair closed I have re- ceived a number of letters from neo- pie who competed for prizes, express mg their appreciation of the good treatment "There are more Cape Girardeau county people in the list cf prize win ners than ever before, and that has been very pleasing to thj fair board.

London, Oct. 3 The Spectator, in an article on "President Lincoln and Compulsory Service," gives verbatim Lincoln's plea for the draft, as taken from John Hays' biography of Lin coln. The-paper says only a mihion men without conscription, it is obvi ously better to leave things as they are during the war "even though the voluntary system acts with a good deal of unfairness and places a heavy burden on willing shoulders." "We put Lincoln's words forward," says the Spectator; "not for imme diate needs, but because they are so wise and stimulating, and because at the moment Deonle will reallv listen & Question of uniwrasl eumfmi "
