WITH TIIK AMERICAN l-'OltCKS
IN FIIANCH, WodHOHduy, July 2!".
The flint field casuulty among the
American forces occurred today. A
soldier became too Inquisitive In re
Kurd to tlio construction of a live
French bomb anions the supplies
brought to camp for training purpos

some innnncr, and very Boon there
after a loud explosion occurred. Fur-!
tunntely for tho soldlor tho bomb did

At every vautngo point ncjr the

nianoiivers wore In progroHS at Bevcral
places, whllo from more secluded

Musketry practice was being hold and

GERMANY is not facing America and lier allies single
handed and alone. She also has allies and Friends.
Austria, Dulgaria and Turkey all in their way are scr
vieeahle; the spv system is valuable.

can lie named as the kaiser's most potent allies. '
" AVe can tight Austrian, Bulgarian and Turkish sol
diers. We can catch spies and hang them. But it almost
seems as if wo must wait years before we can even up
scores with the kaiser's best friends. For they are safe
within our American holy of holies.
They have seats in the United States congress. Tliey
are free to do their dirty work. They can fight the Ameri
can people with impunity. They can block American war
plans. They can cunningly plan to starve the American
stomach and paralyze: t,he American military arm.
And (hoy can do this under the guise and color of all
kind's of specious pleas. They can prate about their un-

making the world safe for democracy, while we make an nocuiating his enemy with dreadful
autocrat ol our president at home. All these things are
nicrely the words of masked hypocrites and traitors.
Every senator and congressman who blocks real food
conservation aids the food thieves at home and the Ger
man enemy abroad.
The times call for real Americans. The crisis calls for
real patriots. Under the cloture rule the senate recently
adopted, after another flagrant exhibition of pro-(icrman-ism,
the power exists to cut off time-killing and (lerman
serving debate.
Tlio. question is whether there are in the presumably
American senate enough American senators to force thru
American laws designated to aid the American people and
to hell) the American army and navv win, a victory for the
American flag. . . :
