It this family is so thin skinned that
they object to have the press, an
avowed enemy of the German army,
call them Huns, it is well that they
discontinue their subscription, be
cause we will never curry favor from
the admirers of Huns as long as the

pole in the world. We are glad that
we know of this family’s position; it
may be of value to know their senti

this family to be offended so easily,

ing against the free trade party that
has persistently refused to restore the
protective tariff and large revenue
producing rates of duty on imported
articles, and thus compel the foreign
producer who sells his goods in this
country in competition with our own
domestic producers, to help pay the
expenses of the war.
In the three years of the Under
wood free trade tariff customs re
ceipts have fallen below 8 per cent of
the value of imports. If in these three
years a protective tariff had been in
force, a billion dollars more of reven
ue would have been collected at the
custom houses, and a billion dollars
less of petty and vexatious tifcxes
would have been imposed.
Charge it to the free trade party!
Two Sea Fights—and a Difference.
Major-General Bell's Confession.
There have been two sea fights in
the North sea within a few weeks.
The difference in the spirit of the
sailors who were victorious is an in
dex to the temper in which the na
tions concerned are making war.
When German raiders sank ships of
a neutral convoy, no sooner had the
Norwegian sailors of these merchant
ships taken to the life boats than the
German cruisers deliberately fired
upon them.
When a German raider and its con-
voy of armed trawlers were destroyed
by British war vessels, no sooner was
the victory won than the British sail
or's set themselves to the rescue of
such German sailors on the armed
vessels as were still afloat.
This difference of temper is the real
explanation of the fact that we are
the allies of Great Britian and the
enemies of Germany and see no
chance of permanent peace until the
temper of the German people is
changed.—Boston Congrcgationalist.
Major General BeW, commander of
Camp Upton finds confession good
for the soul in the matter of President
Wilson’s deliberation in carrying the
country into war. To a great company
gathered in the 71st regiment armory
in New York City, General Bell said:
I must confess to you I was of those
who thought the president was wait
ing too long before he asked for a de
claration of war on Germany. Now I
want to make another confession. As
a professional soldier for 40 years, I
now believe he waited just the right
time. 1 honestly believe if the presi
dent had asked for war sooner the
people would not have been solidly
behind him, But, thank God, they are
now.
Spoken like a soldier and a patriot.
General Bell sees the nation solidly
behind its leafier, and there it must re
main.
“The Meanest Man in Town.”
----- o
Washington, Nov. 25—Imports of
cheese from Europe virtually have
ceased, with the result that the South
American product, heretofore an un
known variety, is appearing in quan
tity on United States market. Figures
made public today by the department
of commerce showed that imports of
European cheese amounted to only 99
pounds in August, as compared with
63,800,000 pounds purchased in the
fiscal year 1914. Argentina, which ex
ported no cheese to this country in
1916, sold American buyers 448,000
pounds in August.
The following sermon appeared in
the Albany Democrat which was de
livered by Rev. George H. Bennett,
pastor of the Albany M. E. church.
