THE KAISER'S DIARY.
(By Edmund Vance Cooke.)

I sent my U-boats out today
Prepared to do their kaiser's worst.
Their orders are. of course, to slay
As many sea-folk as tbey may,
But "women and children first."
TUESDAY
They licked that fool crown prince
again ;
Well, I shall oven that all right.
I'll slave the last few Dclglun men
And starve tho prisoners in their
pen,
For Gott and Schrockllchkoit.

Today I bombed an opon town
"Gott strafo innoconco!" say I.
I feel a growing groat renown
In watching big bombs dropping
down
And seeing little babies dio.

DEBS
ETJOUNU V. DKJJS, one of 11m best known of new
world socialists, still opposes civilization's grunt war
against kaiserisni and still bases liis opposition, according
to repoi'ts of liis speech to Ohio socialists, upon tho J.icl
tliat there are autocrats and profiteers in this country and
because there is in the hearts of some Americans, Lritisn
anil French a "desire for plunder."
There have been days when this newspaper has hear
tily commended reforms advocated by this sani- Debs. We
then were glad to help him titm the spotlight of publicity
upon holes infested by profiteering privilege in this eoun
try. This country hail no such titanic struggle of life and
death a.s this war upon its bauds then. "We had plenty of
time to swat grafters and discuss progressive measures.
Debs and his kind are still at it. They are still keeping-
their eyes so closely upon the profiteer, the reactionary
and the captain of privilege at home that they cannot see
the horrible fire sweeping over the land of the world's
most rapacious of profiteers, the most stand-pat of reac
tionaries and the most greedy captain of privilege, Ger
many's autocracy.
VVhcn Delis says that the "purpose of the allies is the
same as the purpose of the central powers plunder,-"
Debs. Only a liar or a fool could believe that Serbis
resisted Austria for plunder; that 'Belgium resisted the
Dun invaders for plunder; that Britain sacrificed the
flower of her citiy.enry when Belgium was ravaged to
plunder; the France has bled for nearly four years for
plunder; that the United States, forced into the war by
Herman murder and piracy upon the high seas, by German
crimes and plots on our own soil, by German slaying oi
American ciiinens, went into the war for plunder. Deb?
isn't a fool. Therefore he must be a liar.
Debs right now is doing more to aid the Hun kaisei
than all the pro-Germans in America. lie is of greater
assistance to the bodies in France than are the Turk',
Bulgarians and the Austrians. His Canton speech even now
being spread broadcast through all Germany and all Ger
man trenches will kill more American soldiers than ail the
German submarines that hunt for American transport
ships. For Debs' words will be used in Germany to per
suade the Germans on to
cruelty, because they will believe that America is not in
this war to win that Debs voices the sentiments of a
large portion of our population.
Do voices the sentiment ot

better lo save shipping".
Output in America
According to I ho latest report by
J. S. Diller, of the United States geo

United States in' 1!)17 was 43, 72.)
loiijr tons, of which by far the greater
part enme from California. Oregon
produced 7, 5110 long tons, and siuullcr
quantities came l'rom Alaska, Wash
ington, Jlarylitnd und North Carolina.
This year the output must bo grcuiy
increased, and the promise of a con
siderable increase is good. The huge
consumers are giving pood prices,
$1.25 a unit for 38 per cent ore that
is, $47.00 a ton 1'. o. b. cars on the
Pacific const, on contracts c&tendin
through tlie year, so that it pays to
mine chrome ore. Higher grudc ore
is worth more and lower grades less
than the grade noted. For 30 (.cr
cent ore 05 cents a unit is offered -that
is, $19.00 a ton. Low grades

thus greatly increasing their vaiue by
widening (he field and increasing the
economy of application. . About a

sign of the limes is that sonic of the
large deep gold mining companies are

The ore sold on tlie Pacific coast

average was about. 42 per cent for (iie

WASHINGTON, June 23. Small
danger of a tobacco shortage, despite
tromondous amounts being shipped
abroad to tho army 1b shown in a re
port on the industry by the bureau ot
consus disclosing that stocks on hand,
at iho beginning of this year amount
ed to 1,1 76,1!34, 057 pounds, an In
crease of 12.0 percent over last year.
Totul production for 1917 was
1,190,451,000 pounds, of which 76
percent was chowing, smoking, snuft
and export types, 19, percent cigar
types and 5 percent Imported types.
The higher yields are obtained as a
rule in tho localities producing the
high-priced types used in the manu
facture of cigars.
During the paHt threo-tiuarters ot a
century the growth in tobacco pro
duction in the U. S. has not quite kept'
pace with that In population. Vir
ginia was the greatest tobacco grow
ing slate prior to the civil war, but
since that period Kontucky had led in
this respect. Altho with the last cen
sus tho production of tobacco was
reported for 1,508 counties in 45
Sates, nearly one-fourth of the crop
(23.5 percent) was grown In fourteen
counties.
Tho total world's average produc
tion of tobaicco during the period Im
mediately preceding the war Is estim
ated at 4,197,0011,000 pounds annual
ly. Of this, continental U. S. produc
ed approximately 1,000,000,090
pounds, British India 1,000,000,000
pounds; China 500,000,000 pounds,
European Russia 230,000,000 pounds
Dutch Eas Indies 200,000,000
pounds; Austria-Hungary 170,000,
000 pounds; Japan 120,000,000
pounds; Philippines 100,000,000
pounds and Brazil 100,00.0,000
pounds. Tho total for these countries
nuiotmts to 3,420,000,000 pounds, or
SI percent of tho total for tho world.
According -to data compiled by the
department of agriculture ho aver
age farm price of toliacco thruout the
U. S. on December 1, 1917, was 24.9

corresponding average for the 10
