Heir Krzberger .seconds the mo tion. As prophets these two gentlemen are pretty thor oughly discredited, but no one can deny there is a persis tent propoganda being conducted in this country to break the bonds of sympathy bet ween John Hull and Uncle Sam. The Hearst papers tire leading the procession. AVil- helni Randolph in a double column leaders is twisting the lion's tail in every issue. The Congressional Record is full of appeals to anti-British prejudice and the poison has been pretty thoroughly distributed by certain political campaigners, it begins to look as though pro-British would soon be almost as fashionable a term of reproach, as pro German was such a short time ago. ' And judging by a recent article in the Literary Digest the discreditable performance is not common to the Unit ed .States. A certain M. 1 known as Horatio Bottomlev is doing the I Tearst si unt wit h reverse Knglish in the Brit ish Isles. Kvery week he plucks out a handful of tail feath ers from the Yankee Kaglc and pressing them in a sheet en titled "John Bull," distributes the same to over a million subscribers. So serious has the situation become that Sir Auckland Cioddes, the new British ambassador recently took occas sion to officially condemn the practice, and urged his coun trymen and American friends to stop such foolishness and return to a basis of reason and amity again. Our own opinion is there is about as much probability o.f England and America going to war, as William Jennings Jryaii going to a four per cent beer party. And before Sit Auckland recommends the Hearst; papers be again exclud ed from Canada, won't someone inform him that the over ture is being played to that quadrennial American farce known as a regular presidential election. German-Americans have voles, (piite a few of them. And so have Irish-Americans. It's a time-honored politi cal custom to plav for votes on overv string of the human harp, but particularly on t he string of prejudice. That's all there is to this ;ja,z war dance that vm Beruhardi is taking so seriously. The madness will pass quietly away next November, along with the marching clubs and the campaign buttons.

Oh, others seek the groaning board, and whac k oft victuals wit h a sword, and eat; whato'crlbey please; and they may fill themselves with jam, indulge in gravy, pie and ham, and forty kinds of cheese. And I alone must sadly browse on fodder that was meant for cows, and shun the tempting things; the dinner bell for me no more bring tidings of good grub in store, it jars me when it rings. The dweller in the crowded flat, the artisan, the plutocrat, may eat what e'er they wish; but I must; boil a mess of straw, or feed on germ proof prunes and slaw, and cheap denatured fish.
