Numerous ,intlnition nuinuiacfuring plants in the United Slnles hnc been desfroved lr I'ii'c ilnd bomb. numerous strikes io cripple industry have been instigated, numerous siiips Tired at sea through contrivances placed aboard in neutral harbors. The list, of outrages runs info the hundreds, and everv dnv chronicles a new one. Developments have shown how widespread the cam paign of destruction waged against citizens of a neutral nation by the agents of' the central powers. Herman efficiency shows in the widespread system of espionage and in the recurring riots and disasters. The portfolio lost by Dr. Albert, the documents taken from Arch bald, leading to the dismissal of Duniba; the sub stantiated statements of a former Austrian consul, the confession of captured dvnamiters, the admissions of labor leaders,, furnish conclusive proof of an organi'cd invasion of destruction in violation of treaty obligations. The evidence points directly to the kaiser as the respon sible "higher-up," working through the accredited repre sentatives of Germany and Austria in the United States. It is admitted from IJerlin that ttoy-Ed and Von Papcn, caught red-handed as arch-conspirators, were per sonal appointees of the kaiser, to whom they reported and who alone can recall them. J low many other of the kaiser's personal envoys are involved in secret, destruction of American lives and American properly time will prob ably tell but evidence shows that German spies and Gor man agents tire everywhere abusing the freedom of a friendly nation. , The Prussian jugger knows no law stive Unit, of armed might. Jn destruction hu,, is fiuiidishly wanton, and enemies and friends all look alike, so long a there is some thing to kill or destroy. .It is equally glorious to destroy neutral women and children at sea, to exterminate little, weak nations, like Belgium and Serbia, or to blow up toil ers in American powder mills. One cannot argiie morality with war-mad maniacs. ::t HE CMMISTMS ! : ..K A ersT8rlri.

LOUIS POST, assistant secretary of labor, litis evolved a plan for training men for peace as well as war, which is well worth adoption by congress. le would have an army prepared for peace as wvll as war; that will de velop civic as well as, military spirit; an army that will turn out, after their period .of. enlistment, meii fitted not only to give efficient military service if called upon, but prepared to step at once into the ranks of skilled wage earners. ' A year is all that is needed, according to tests, to de velop a proficient soldier; the other three years of enlist ment, the average soldier' is simply marking time. They go out after discharge as unfitted for civil life as they en tered. Mr. Post would have the last three years occupied in training the soldiery in useful occupation and trades. Those who wanted to follow a militarv career at the end of the first year would go into the, standing army, where their military training wtmul beff-xtended and promotion offered. Any private in" tllis bralich of the service would be privileged to take examinations for corporal, and, if he qualified, would be given a certificate putting him in line for the first vacancy as corporal. Any corporal, or any one holding a corporal's certificate, might try for a serge ant's certificate. Any one having qualified as sergeant could next try for a commissioned officer's papers. Men who thus come up through the ranks and win a commissioned officer's certificate should be eligible for admission to West Point, instead of having all West Point students picked by congressional and senatorial favor. Those who at the end of the fir-d year wanted to return to civil life tit the expiration of their enlistment, would be given opportunity to learn almost every skilled trade, and the last three years, with the exception of certain drilling periods, spent in mastering a useful occupation. When their terms of enlistment were up, these men, instead of leaving the, army unfitted to do am thing but fight, would be ready to step at once into the ranks of skilled wage-earners. They would be kept trace of, how ever, for a certain period, and mobilized from time to time for drills and maneuvers. In event of war, (hey would be the first reserve.
