Don’t forget when writing to your friends in the
states to say that labor is plentiful around Seward but men
are scarce. What this section wants now is men for work
and the work is here.
An “anxous women’’ has asked the Editor if “Mr. So"
and-So”. who happens to be a soldier now stationed here,
“isn’t a married man? The Editor does not know besides
the Editor dosen’t care. You ask him, “women”, for this
particular soldier happens to be a little hit larger than the
Editor.
And now comes the season of lamentation on the part
of Jeremiah, surnamed O’Leary. True to his prototype, he
has turned out to be one of the mournful elders in Israel.
There is the profise that hunger in Germany will be
a bear for the Holenzollern stock. We would be mighty
glad to accept it as a reliable market indication.
The boys who go across have the one ambition to make
“No Man’s Land” “Yankee Land”, and they are some boys
at that.

In the war news we learn of succesful air raids over
the Rhine. But the attacks are directed against chemical
plants and munitions works. A strong and an honorable
contrast to the baby killing practices of the Hun.

Emperor Bill, the Hunniest of the Huns, was furious I
over Von Kuehlmann’s speech. No wonder! The speech it
self discloses to the world altogether too much of the chi
cane and deception which the Kaiser and his following
practice upon the German people.
Semi-official anouncement from Washington puts the

subsen be it.

At New York City the internal revenue collector re
ports one man is paying $14,000,000 income tax, but- under
treasury regulations, he refuses .to disclose the man’s I
name. Of course, no one will be able, out of the 5,000,000
residents of Gotham to guess that the man is John D.

The following notice has boon sent
out by the office of the U. S. Attorney:
The Department of Justice notified
all United States attorneys to cause
indictments to be returned against all
citizens of the United States who have
removed to other countries in order to.
evade military service. These indict- i
ments will returned regardless of the
fact that there may be no immediate !
probability of apprehending the per- !
sons accused. The entire service of
the law department will be used in fer
reting out these cases and accumulat
ing evidence in support of the charges.
It ,is the determination of the govern
ment thut this sort of slacker will be
severely dealt with on his return to
lh<^ United States, if he# should ever
come back.
