INK SLINGS. —Well, the big day is over. —Every day it looks less like trouble with Germany. —Uncle SAM is showing symptoms of wanting to sit tight in Mexico. --This thing of rocking the boat is a mighty dangerous proceeding for CAR- RANZA. —The intermittent rains have been keeping the farmers back with plowing that is already very much belated. -—We'll bet that some of New York's “gun-men” could “get” VILLA in a very short time and they do it cheap over in Gotham. ——HENRY FORD may not cut much figure in the Republican National con- vention but he is having plenty of fun in the primaries. ——The Chicago judge who decided that SHAKESPEARE didn’t write Shake- speare could easily decide who stole CHARLIE Ross. : —1If Austria is obliged to finance her own war loans her part of the war will soon end. Austria is not in good credit in the average loan market. —Many of our Republican friends are breathing easier since it has become ap- parent that TEDDY isn't going to steal their nomination for President. ——The landing of Russian troops in France indicates an early end of the operations at Verdun and even suggests a beginning of the end of the war. —Of course the bow-legged girl isn’t an extremist in the present fad for short- skirts. As a matter of fact she thinks the fashion horrid, but just to be in style she goes as far as the bow will let her. —CARRANZA can’t work that old dodge on our Uncle SAMUEL. “Here’s your hat, what’s your hurry” isn’t going to get us out of Mexico until we get VILLA or know that someone else has gotten him. —What a splendid, inspiring and posi- tively thrilling spectacle was the pageant of the massed bands as they crossed the Diamond playing “Onward Christian Soldiers.” Those who saw and heard it without a thrill are surely without a soul. —We have to give it to the Millheim lodge for the hats they wore. Every last one of them was right up to the minute in fashion for top hats. We can’t say so much for some of the others because there surely were some lids of the vint- age of '63. —It’s all over and there'll be a good bit of talk about it, but let us tell you right here that “Our Boys” band from Miles- burg is coming fast. Wouldn't dear old *Squire BIERLY be happy if he were only alive to see and hear what his pupil FRANK WETZLER has accomplished. —There is more sport in landing a twenty-five inch trout than there is good eating in the fish after it has been taken from the water. The sport is the ele- * ment that makes fishing attractive to most men and that is why the young man who landed the whale on Monday is so proud of his triumph. —And talking about transformations. If you noticed N. A. MILLER in the Bellefonte contingent in the parade, on Wednesday, and then look at him in his shop on Water street you'll understand what Shakespeare intended to convey when he wrote “the apparel oft proclaims the man.” Our friendreally IS just what you saw in the parade and not what you might think him when you see him in that flaming red flannel shirt. —When you hear people talk about the booms that are in progress at other places and quiz you as to why Bellefonte doesn’t get busy, just tell them the truth. Tell them that there never was a time when more wages were being paid out to workmen in and about Bellefonte than right now and that there never was a time when it was harder to get a man to do odd jobs than right now. Both of these statements are facts, but Bellefonte has been so quietly prosperous for: years that many of her residents don’t realize it and imagine that because some other half bankrupt community is making a noise over a little business revival, we are not getting our share. —The death of Col. D. F. FORTNEY brings us face to face again with the fact that Bellefonte is fast losing the men whose names have been almost synon- omous with her own. At the bar ,in business and in politics we have very few left who are well known outside the con- fines of our own town, and unusual as it may seem, only isolated cases could be cited of men destined to retrieve the prestige that was won for Bellefonte and Centre county by these older men who are so rapidly passing. Time was when the mere mention of Bellefonte in any part of the State was a sort of open sesame, for were not BURNSIDE, Mc- ALLISTER, CURTIN, BEAVER, HASTINGS, Maj. REYNOLDS, EDW B. HUMES, JoHN H. ORvVIS, ALEXANDER, BOWER, LOVE, the two BLANCHARDS, Hoy and FORTNEY _ Bellefonters and they were known every- where. Count them up today and reflect on the few who are left and then look about you to see who will take their places. The future of Bellefonte will probably be in eclipse so far as the lustre _ of her public men is concerned for some time. STATE RIGHTS AND FEDERAL UNION. Roosevelt and Daniels—A Parallel. On the front page of the Philadelphia Ledger of Monday there were two interest- ing statements. One is from Oyster Bay and by THEODORE ROOSEVELT; the other from Washington, D. C., and from the Secretary of the Navy DANIELS. Mr. ROOSEVELT says: “Twenty-one months have passed since the great war began, and during all this time we have not pre- pared in even the smallest degree in order, if possible, to avert war from us, or, if it could not be averted, to wage it efficiently and successfully. The pacif- ists and anti-preparedness people have had their will, and our rulers at Wash- ington have bowed to them and left us helpless; and with blind fatuity they said they did this in the interest of peace. When will our people learn that the peace of .unpreparedness is the peace of cowardice and folly and may at any time lead to overwhelming disaster?” Secretary DANIELS, on the other hand, informs the public in the statement at- attributed to him, that “there are now in active service, fully commissioned, 255 vessels of various character. This is 66 more than were fully commissioned when I became Secretary in March, 1913. There are also 95 vessels of various types in reserve and in ordinary and uncom- missioned, capable of rendering service in war. We have under construction and authorized 61 vessels, including eight dreadnoughts, 13 destroyers, 36 submarines and four auxiliaries. All vessels, those in reserve as well as those in active service, are supplied with muni- tions of war. No navy ever makes an- nouncements of the quantity of ammuni- tion and torpedoes, mines and other im- plements of naval warfare which it keeps ready, but our supply is ample, I might say, for all emergencies.’’ ROOSEVELT blathers about the readi- ness of his sons to engage in war and of his willingness to sacrifice to patriot- ism. = But he admonishes all others against the danger of “fevers, dysentery and lung troubles in the camps,” and warns them that “they will be butchered needlessly in battle because we have failed to prepare masses ot artillery, ma- chine guns ‘and motor trucks.” Secre- tary DANIELS tells the public that with respect to torpedoes for every 100 we had on hand three years ago 158 have since been acquired, “making our stock in hand and in process of manufacture two and a-half times as great.” Our powder supply has been increased in equal ratio, the officers and line of the force have been enlisted to the maxi- mum limit, the marksmanship of the force was “never better.” He quotes Admiral MAYO to the effect that at the recent practice “the ships had done some of the farthest shooting, 18,000 yards; best maneuvres and best practice the fleet had ever had; that they had done so many things worth while that he was quite satisfied with the spirit and confidence of the officers and men; that they are ready if called upon.” This “deadly parallel” might be con- tinued from the beginning to the end of the two statements, but what’s the use. It is of value only for and serves but one purpose and that is to show what a vi- cious and traitorous falsifier THEODORE ROOSEVELT has come to be. Every such utterance coming from him strengthens the hope of possible enemies and mul- tiplies the danger of war. People abroad do not yet suspect that he is crazy or that his absurd ambition to seize the government for himself “and his four sons’’ has made him a worthless witness in the matters he discusses with such dangerous consequences. We do not be- lieve that his licentious mouthings do any harm at home, but we are given to wonder how, in.view of the facts, any man who makes a pretense to patriotism can consent to the pollution of the pub- lic life of the country by supporting him. ——The Republican Temperance League with headquarters at State Col- lege this week flooded the county with postal cards giving twenty reasons why the voters should support local option, and incidentally CEPHAS L. GRAMLEY for the Legislature. Mr. GRAMLEY, by the way, was in Bellefonte last Saturday in- terviewing voters indiscriminately in his own interest and evidently intends stick- ing in the fight to a finish, notwithstand- ing the fact that it is rumored that the BRUMBAUGH element is not rallying very strongly to his support. In fact Gover- nor BRUMBAUGH’S itinerary from now until the primaries does not contain a single date in Centre county. ——Possibly Germany will make us wait awhile for its reply to the recent note on the subject of submarine opera- tions but when it comes it will contain no refusal. The Kaiser acts like a crazy man at times but he’s no lunatic. -and servants are not included. . "BELLEFONTE, PA. Bernstorf’s Surprising Attitude. One of the most surprising develop- ments of our diplomatic relations with Germany is the attitude Ambassador BERNSTORF has assumed with respect to the arrest of WOLF VON IGEL. That per- son has been indicted in the federal court of New York for conspiracy to organize in this country a plot to blow up the Welland canal in Canada. It was a crime for which any citizen of the United States would be severely punished. The evidence of VoN IGEL’s guilt is overwhelming but BERNSTORF has laid claim in his behalf of immunity from arrest because he is associated with the German embassy. Under treaty-made law representatives of foreign governments cannot be arrested, In setting up the claim of immunity for this conspirator, however, BERNS- TORF makes his government a party to all the crimes that have been perpetrated in this country by German agents since the beginning of the war. The inciting labor strikes, the blowing up of muni- tions factories and every other outrage committed by aliens or hyphenated for- eigners are traceable to associates of VON IGEL and documents captured at the time of his arrest amply prove the fact. There- fore identifying VON IGEL as an attache of the embassy puts responsibility for all these crimes upon the German gov- ernment or its ambassador in Washing- ton. That the principal is responsible for the actions of his agent is a well es- tablished principle of law. The claim that an attache of an em- bassy or legation is immune from arrest is based on this theory of law. As a representative of a foreign government thegovernment rather than the individual would be answerable for the action. But clerks to attaches or secretaries of un- derstrappers can hardly claim immunity when they have committed a felony, and the crimes charged against VON IGEL are felonies. Members of Congress are im- mune from arrest for misdemeanors dur- ing attendance at sessions but if they commit felonies they may be taken as others are taken. The immunity to repre- sentatives of foreign governments proba- bly goes no further. In any event clerks ~——Now that PENROSE and MCNICHOL | are protesting against police activity in politics there is hope in the future: *“When rogues fall out honest men come by their own,” and when party pirates complain of fraud there is a chance for honest elections and fair counts. Republican Factional War On. The war between the PENROSE and BRUMBAUGH factions of the Republican party is on. The Senator opened fire in Pittsburgh last evening and BRUMBAUGH will reply from Williamsport tomorrow evening. Of course it is impossible to describe the PENROSE implements, for at this writing they have not been revealed. It may be assumed, however, that his batteries contain all the modern instru- ments of destruction from the ponderous howitzer to the swift acting machine gun and they will be used with great skill BRUMBAUGH’S equipmeni is likewise a matter of conjecture but is likely to re- veal the latest inventions in the ‘“holier- than-thou” type of projectile. This fight will afford interesting spec- tacles for thoughtful voters to contem- plate. The rules of civilized warfare will be disregarded entirely, it may be pre- dicted, and poisonous gasses, submarine torpedoes and overhead fire cauldrons of every sort will be brought into ser- vice. Each side is abundantly supplied with ammunition for numerous battles along such lines and the victory is likely to depend more upon the accuracy of aim than the calibre of the gun. PEN- ROSE can use the OLIVER episode and other delinquencies of the Governor with marvelous effect and the Governor may rehash some of the Senator’s political piracies and by ornate oratory invest with thrilling interest. : But it’s nothing to us, so “go to it,” hammer and tongs. As Sir Lucius O’TRIGGER might say, “it will be a pretty fight,” though probably a trifle nasty. Nevertheless the public ought to know more about the intrigues and conspira- cies of the Republican machine in Penn- sylvania and there is no better way to uncover them then through a “battle royal” between the factions. The base- ness and commercialism of the 50-50 deals through which the State has been looted by the contractor bosses in the past and the plans for plunder by the managers on both sides for the future, can hardly fail to attract attention and the universal condemnation of all con- cerned. ——BILLY SUNDAY has one good point on the candidates. He doesn’t have to make a sworn acknowledgment of con- tributions even when they come to $1000 checks. . .. : . APRIL 28, 1916. NO. 17. The Pursuit of Villa a Wise Policy. ' Upon the recommendation of General SCOTT, chief of staff of the army, Presi- dent WiLsoN has approved an order of | the Secretary of War, to continue the pursuit of VILLA in Mexico. Recently there have been signs of discontent ‘among Mexicans, ostensibly supporters . of the de facto government and CAR- | RANzA has made official request that our | troops be - withdrawn with assurances | that the search for the outlaw will be ‘ continued by his own forces. But the promise of achievement was too remote ‘to be seriously considered and the orig- ‘ inal program will be carried out. ViLLA will be taken, dead or alive, and that ac- complished the punitive expedition will be brought to an end. - In justice to CARRANZA it must be said that he is not in complete control of the forces which are assumed to be the army of Mexico. Probably he is sincere in his pretense that he is anxious to capture VILLA. In the nature of things he ought to be of that mind for VILLA is easily the greatest menace against the permanence of his goverment. In that event he is to be pitied rather than blamed for his recent protest against the United States soldiers within the limits of Mexico. The people are uneducated and superstitious and put wrong constructions upon things they do not understand. But he ought to + show greater zeal in the pursuit and at least a disposition to reconcile the people to a necessary condition. The government of the United States has no ulterior motive in sending troops into Mexico. Neither the people of the United States nor the authorities at Washington have any desire to acquire territory or encroach upon the sovereignty of Mexico. But a Mexican bandit en- croached upon the territory of the Unit- ed States, murdered people and pillaged a community and as the Mexican au- thorities have not the power, even if they had the inclination, to apprehend and punish him, our own authorities have properly undertaken the work and. it is a duty to complete it unless a better method of achieving the purpose is dis- covered and acted upon. The President bes acted wisely in the matter. ——JAMES R. MANN, Republican floor leader and Chicago ‘rough-neck,” is reaping a harvest of public wrath be- cause of his unjust criticism of the Presi- dent. But it is doubtful if he has enough sense of decency to realize the enormity of his offense even while under the de- luge of denunciation. Roosevelt’s Loose Tongue. There is a tradition of a man who talk- ed himself out of a rich inheritance and many men have talked themselves out of jobs. But no loose tongue has ever work- ed greater disaster to its owner than that of THEODORE ROOSEVELT which has talk- ed him out of a nomination that he cherished more than the salvation of his own soul. Two weeks ago if seemed reasonably certain that he would be able to seize the nomination of the Republican National convention. Even the New York Tribune, in obedience to an impulse to line up on the popular side, declared for him and a number of less influential journals followed in its wake. The indi- cations pointed to his nomination as in- evitable. But in his elation over the prospects ROOSEVELT turned his licentious tongue loose with the result that today he has no more chance of getting the nomination than BILL VARE has of becoming Pope of Rome. Every patriotic citizen has turn- ed against him in disgust and though he may bluster and threaten and “gnash his teeth,” it is doubtful if he will get one hundred votes out of the whole number which will compose the convention. He has talked himself entirely out of the arena and now lies prostrate in dispair, the victim of his selfish and sordid ambi- tion. He is enduring the just punishment of malignancy, mendacity and perfidy. His “vaulting ambition has o’erlept itself.” At no time since the campaign of 1912 have the real Republicans favored him as the candidate of their party this year. But by the adroit manipulation of forces at his command he had, two weeks ago, practically captured the prize. But then he let loose his venomous tongue and gave free rein to his malicious jaws and he is justly repudiated by thoughtful men of every shade of political opinion. The average citizen of the United States is he is patriotic as well as generous and abhors the treachery which would sacri- fice the country for a selfish gain. ROOSE- VELT is a blithering idiot. ——D. O. Downing, who recently mov- ed from Port Matilda to Tyrone, where he went into the butchering business sold his meat market last Saturday and will probabiy move back to Centre county. : : just and tolerant. He believes in the | freedom of thought and expression. But | ! Divorcing the Tariff from Politics. From the Harrisburg Star-Independent. The Rainey Tariff commission bill, in- troduced in the lower House of Congress and referred to the committee on ways and means, is an ideal measure and well adapted for the purpose intended by its author, the taking of the tariff question out of politics and placing it in the hands of a non-partisan commission of six members to be appointed by the Presi- dent, no more than three of the ap- pointees to be of the same political faith. The tariff problem is a most difficult one to solve. It has been more or: less of a disturbing factor in Presidential elections for a number of generations, to the detriment of stable business affairs, | and several times bringing the United States to the verge of panicky conditions, if not altogether paralyzing commercial and industrial development throughout the country. All this, it is now claimed, will be obviated by the passage of the Rainey measure, and no doubt will be. The tariff commission league, with headquarters in Chicago, is making strenuous efforts to have the bill passed and is urging its adoption with the sug- gestion of a few minor amendments which in no way affect the general terms of the measure. The committee saw fit to pare down the proposed salaries of the members of the commission from $12,000 to $10,000. The league says that when the magnitude and character of the work is considered, the 1 salary would make it easier for the President to get a stronger commission. It is also suggested that the maximum term of appointment should be eight years instead of twelve, as fixed by the committee. ; The bill as a whole, if passed by Con- gress and signed by the President, will no doubt work out to the best business interests of the country, for the tariff question, no matter what political party is in power, is a thorn in the side of the commercial and industrial life of the nation, as the law is generally framed by Congressmen who have axes to grind one way or another, no matter what their political faith. The Russians in France. From the Lancaster Intelligencer. The surprising announcement that a strong force of Russian troops has been landed on the Mediterranean coast of France to take part in the fighting in northern France immediately provokes speculation. Where did they come from and why were they brought to France? As they were landed at Marseilles they probaliy came Shrough the ier egnal, possibly from Russian ntral Asia way of Afghanistan IN from Vladivostock—although that would by a very long voyage. If they had been landed on the West coast of France it might be guessed that they had come from the Russian Arctic coast, although this would be very early in the season for ships to escape from that ice-locked sea. As to why a strong force of Russians should be thus sent to the western thea- tre of war when there is obviously so much fighting cut out for Russia on her own invaded soil, one can only guess that they may be sent for moral effect, and also as a demonstration of the plen- tiful supply. of human war material at the command of the Czar. Suspicious of Carranza. From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The degree of faith and credit to be attached to any assurance made by Gen. Carranza touching the ability of his gov- ernment to complete the work of crush- ing Villa, is to be seen in the character of statements made in his communication to justify his demand for an early with- drawal. In substance, the claim made is one that the exchanges between this gov- ernment and Carranza, immediately fol- lowing Villa’s raid on Columbus, and leading to the agreement under which our entry into Mexico was made did not contemplate such an entry at that time, nor at any time unless further invasion, raiding, looting and murdering should occur. The Mexicans, in effect, charge this government with bad faith for hav- ing organized and marched the punitive expedition into Mexico as a measure of reprisal for what had been done at Columbus. Other Converts. From the Chicago Herald. : We are told that the war has convert- ed the French to the idea of sleeping out of doors. It has also converted a great many Belgians and Poles not only to sleeping out of doors but also to going without enough food. Following Line of Least Resistance. From the Detroit Free Press. Everybody seems to realize the “ tility of trying to get John D. to reduce the price of gasoline. Anyhow, all minds seem bent on finding a cheap substitute for it instead. No Chance. From the Anaconda Standard. : Speaking of the separate peace con- cluded with Root, there’s not yet much to indicate that Roosevelt and Taft will ever enter the Chicago convention arm in arm. ——A most cordial invitation is ex- tended to all the women of Bellefonte and vicinity to attend a series of free lectures on First Aid. The object of these lectures is to enable the women to prepare themselves in an efficient man- ner against calamity in any form. The first lecture will be delivered by a phy- sician in the directors’ room in the new High school, building, Tuesday, May the second, at 4.15 o'clock.
