Children Cry for Fletcher's
The deliberate torpedoing of the hospital ship War
ilda in the English channel yesterday was the climax of
Hun inhumanity and depravity. The steamer had been
engaged for two years in this work and it is stated this
trip was the first in some time, in which she had not had
a number of German wounded. This is looked upon as
significant, and suggests that the Huns had information
of this fact. It is also significant of the fact that the Hun
idea is to murder the sick, wounded and non-combatants
on all occasions. It is but one more added to the long list
of horrible acts for which the German leaders must an
swer. This brings up another feature of the peace terms
when they will be discussed, and that is shall this ruthless
murder and others like it be allowtd to go unpunished by
the civilized nations of the world? It strikes most per
sons, no matter 'how unresentful they may be, that jus
tice will be mocked if any peace is made in which those
responsible for such crimes against hum.amty are smooth
ed over and allowed to go unpunished. It looks as though
if woo o 1 11 fir tVio wnrlrl nwps t.n itself to insist on the pun-
ishment of those responsible for such violations ot the
laws of nations and of humanity. No matter where that
responsibility is found to rest, whether with Von Tirpitz
or the kaiser they should be made an example of as one
of the necessary corollaries of any peace. So far the
allies have refrained from retaliation in kind on most of
the Hun atrocities, even the air raiding of unfortified
cities, and the deliberate killing of non-combatants. At
the same time, such crimes as that of sinking a ship car
winir wounded, if retaliation in kind is not possible will
stir a feeling of hatred in the breasts of the Americans
at least, that will bode no good to their enemies on the
battle field. Every act of the. Hun is calculated to stir
the allies into making it a war of extermination instead
of one for world peace; for extermination at least of the
Prussian militarists who are responsible for such "endish
deeds is necessary for the future peace of the world. If
only annihilation can remove this element, then annihil
ation is the remedy. ' ,
Most Americans who have followed the story of the
fighting on the western front realized that there would
be an enlarged death and casualty list following the two
weeks' fighting, but many apparently overlooked that
phase of the matter, and these will be startled at the list
as it will show within the next few days. Yesterday the
number reported was 706 and this is but the beginning
of the enumeration. Great caution is being taken to see
that the lists are correct before they are given publicity,
and it is almost a certainty that the list as reported is
correct. Of course there will be occasional cases of mis
taken identity, but outside of this the list is as reliable
as human intelligence and effort can make them. It will
be several days after the fighting lets up before the com
plete list can be made.
It is anticipated that the house will meet Monday to
consider the new draft bill and that it will report it out
to the senate within a few days after that. General
Crowder points out that there will be but 100,000 men left
trio first draft bv September, and that if
the calls for the three months following that date are to
be met registration must not be delayed later than Sep
tember 5. It is also probable that weekly registration
will be required of those reaching the age of twenty-one.
General Crowder estimates the number of registrants
between 32 and 45 at 10,028,973,' and those between. 18
;nd 20 at 3,171,671.- The bill was introduced in the house
and senate both yesterday.
Hindenburg and Ludendorff are reported as each
blaming the other for the defeat that has overtaken the
German army. It is probable one or the other will have
to take the blame unless they can shift it to some less im
portant officer. One thing is certain and that is that the
Crown Prince will never be blamed for it.

JOY COMETH.
The dawn of peace is coming soon; I read it in the
stars and moon, and F ma full grown seer; I read the
planets, slick as grease, and I predict we'll back in peace
by June the 12th, next year. Then we'll be paid a hand
some price for every little sacrifice that now may chafe or
irk; we'll have real bread of wheaten flour, and all we
want, in that glad hour when peace gets in its wrok. Then
we may seat outselves for grub, and not be told, by waiter
dub, "You can't have beef today; it is the food dictator's
wish that you should fill yourselves with fish and water
ed consomme." We'll wear silk shirts if we elect, and no
one will denounce, object, or say it is a sin; we won't be
subject to arrest if we should have our trousers pressed,
or wear a plate glasc pin. We'll motor on the village green,
and burn up all the gasoline we can afford to buy, and
none will say, "You help the Hun whenever your old boat
you run! bhame, slacker, go and die! When peace
brings in her sunny days, we'll all get back to normal
ways, and find this life a boon; I watch the planets
through a glass, and see that peace will come to pass
s bout the 12th of June. So let us bear whatever load may
on our shoulders be bestowed with fortitude sublime;
when peace comes back we'll all be gay ,and gladly sing,
"Calloo ! Callay !" and have a bully time.
