Please mail me a copy of your paper of May 9th,' afternoon is sue. I desire the account of my experience as a law-breaker. I thank you for the way you wrote me up, and as I only read the: Item but did not buy a paper, I - I wish you to send me one of the ,9th. I enclose postage and the price of the paper. All I have to -say in regard to my recent ac tions Is that we never know why some people go and do wrong, hut take it from me, there Is a good reason, .and not only be cause one gets "easy money," because money obtained in this wise Is not so easy aa it seems. Neither is tt" for the Bport of the game of "putting one over" on the officers that so many people ,do" these things. There Is anoth er and deeper reason for these acts, and each party has his or her own reason. I have mine I know. . ;, Thanking you again, I beij to remain, Yours respectfully, -i MRS. C. KANITZ.

Thev also believe that the incredible cruelties. nnd barbarities of the war were of German origin. Any interpretation-of the to Germany, would be summarily repudiated on tins side of the water.1 Germany complains she will suffer. The Anieriean people, believe she. should suffer. They feel that the punishment should be so severe and so lasting, that the lessori hi Germany will not be forgotten in this generation or any generation to.cmne. 1 V ' - - Germany humiliated and Germany broken is to the American- mind essential to the future peace and security of the world. -"This attitude is not regarded as one of vindictiveness but of moral justification. In the parlance of the street, Germany is merely getting what was coming to her. " ,- . , . ? " A soft peaee, a sentimentally conciliatory peaee,- would to the American conception of the German nature, mean an unsatisfactory peace, a peace that would allow the Prussian junker to parade the avenues once more, and proclaim his justification of force and f rightfulness. ' Germany apparently has learned little since 1914. America has learned a great deal. Germany may appeal to the sympathies of the "dreamy pacifists" across the Atlantic till Doomsday, but the game that worked in 1914 won't work today. Uncle Sam has his eyes open and has cut hjs baby teeth. '. . - PROHIBITION "WORKS. TiERE is little consolation for the anti-dry forces in the records of prohibition itx American cities. A series of articles in Colliers deal in vital statistics regard ing the actual effects of prohibition in the country to date. Prom the small rural coinnnmities to cities like Detroit the record is the same, more money in the banks, higher profits in business, less crime, more productive labor ami general satisfaction among the people. The laws have been evaded, bootleggers have thrived, but after all the records show these as mere incidents. As a system, ac cording to the articles, prohibition has worked. - Query, what lias become of thp partv who promised to buy the P. and E. railroad if Medford raised $30,000?

The pence con ference today received from the Women's International conference for Permanent Peace at Znrich the reso lttt:on adopted vesterdav bv the con ference denouncing the terms of peace with Germany. The resolution declares that the terms tacitlv sanc tion secret diplomacy, deny the prin ciples of self-determination, recog nize the riant of the victor to the spoils of war. and violate principles of lustice. Rule of force, it is de clared, is continued bv the financial and economic clauses. COMMUNICATION. ': The Lament of a Taxpayer .
