MUST INVOKE NEW METHODS.
While our Boldiors give their very
lite and blood to free the world or
Prussian domination there are some
people so unpatriotic, so narrovr, so
selfish and so un-American as to re
fuse to purchase war saving stamps
.o aid those brave boys who are
struggling on the battle front giv
ing up everything to still the enemy.
Some have given generously, many
of small means have contributed
liberally, but there are a considerable
number of people who could well af
ford to go the limit but are satisfied
to "push" the W. S. S. committee
away with a paltry contribution to
the present drive. Now, there Is Just
one thing certain just as certain an
the sun appears on the eastern hori
zon each day, and that Is, the day for
begging people to loan their money
to this great and free government
has about reached Its end. Other
means will have to be employed to
reach a certain class of Individuals
whose fingers have a tendency to
stick to the Almighty dollar with
such a degree of tightness that it is
utterly ImpoBslblo to pry them loose
through any patriotic appeal. A new
method must be put Into operation
to catch the follow who has the filthy
lucre, but who considers selfish In
terests first and glorifies m the fact
that while rivers of blood may flow
on the westorn front, American sol
diers butchered and torn by German
shells staking their HveB for the
protection and safety of their coun
try, ho may enjoy the fruits of free
America without any concern of
thoBO who are fighting his bnttles In
the great world strugglo of today.
We've got to reach men of this class
and ronch them quick evon if It
takes a piece of hemp to bring thorn
up to the lovol whoro thoy rightfully
belong.
Attorney General Gregojry la quot
ed as being oposed to the projected
merger of the express companies un
less provision is made for a reBtorn
tion of competition when Iho.v.-ar Is
over. How so? If the lack of crni
petition Is a good thing nt.vr. v.li
should It not bo a good urn;-; wnc
peace comes? What Is there be
yond a Elut of material for trans
port which sets this era apart from
normal (linos? if it Is a good thin
to pool all facilities to aid in th
transit of war materials, why is It
bad thing to do likewise In the cusc
of peace materials? After the war
over we are likely to see a period of
wide Industrial actnity due to the re
qulrements for reconstruction whlc
peace will demand, and the volume
of business will hardly decline in I lie
aggregate, even if some lines show
falling off. As a matter of fact,
has required war conditions to show
this country the right way to do busl
ness under peace conditions.
A survey made by the bureau o
labor statistics on the food situation
in Germany, Austria, Dulgaria, Hun
gary and Turkey, compiled ciurln
1917 from laws, orders, decrees
public utterances, etc., In those conn
tries, has determined that Germany
and Austria are hard pressed, Bui
garla well provided for, Hungary in
good shape, while Turkey Is actually
starving. That Turkey should starvi
while Hungary's fed, makes many
punster scratch his head.
He Is a poor sort of a patriot wh
cannot find some way to economize
In order that he may buy war sav
IngB stamps, and in so doing give the
government more money, labor and
materials with which to light th
war.
We are recalling the degrees con
ferrcd on Bernstorff and others oi
that stripe, but the kaiser has the
third degree coming to him.
There's one way we can hit back at
Hungary for turning down woman
suffrage, we can bun the goulash.
Some men don't know that thoy art
beaten until long nfter other people
make t ho discovery.
Llout. James C. Staley, the only
man to have boon arrested thus ar
In the graft cbbcb which Involve
military contracts, has made a state
ment to tho dlatrict attorney In
which ho said that "evorybody was
getting a little money, and that his
knowledgo of the fact led him to
wrong doing. "Everybody" 1b a very
lncluslvo torm, probably too sweep
ing for use In the present Instance,
but It Is wholly likely that there
wore many examples for Lieut. Staley
to follow, and he will bo doing his
countrymen a greut service, as well
as making Borne reparation for Ms
own guilt, If ho will furnish sonio
evtdonco upon which a few of
tho gront group whom lie
names may be brought to book.
Tho man who grafts upon govern
ment money nowadays, monoy taken
from tho pcoplo by heavy taxation or
generously loaned by thorn to the na
tion, is guilty of more than a mere
thert. Ho is guilty of substantial
treason.
The onormous drop in tho Gorman
birth rate i not without Us compen
sation, aa tho luckiest thing that can
happen to a bocho baby Is not to be
born.
Tho real purpose of the subma
rine raid is to provont soashore ho
tel proprietors from having money
whorewlth to buy thrift stamps.
This is the final (lay for putting
Douglas county over the top for vnr
saving stamps.
Only one more day to sign a plodgo
for war saving stamps. You'll have
to hurry.
Many a woman who makes a man
a mighty poor wife makes lilm a rich
husband.
THE END.

"Somewhere In France," the papers
say,
Men are lighting night and day,
Dying there in the gloom of night,
Giving their lives for God and tin
night:
Led by the hand of Justice thoy went
To defend the cntisu of thoTiinocent,
To crush the tyrant on land and Reus.
And give to the world a laBtlng 1'eaco
Somewhere at home, many miles
away.
Women are weeping night and day,
Weeping with hearts that sting and
ache
lloneath their burden, but do not
break:
Dark are their llvos as tho robes they
wear,
For loved ones who periBhcd "over
thoro.
God's gift to woman through nil the
years
Of grler and courago 1b but hor tears.
Somewhere n Holl there is a place
Waiting and waiting night and day.
For those who plunged Ine Human
race
Into this cruel and bloody fray;
Who sought to drag all nations down.
To aratlfy u degenerate crown,
And Satan's mission will bo complete
When ho aees them writhing nt hlB
loot,
Somowhero in Hell.

ENEMIES FIFTY YEARS
They say politics makes Btrange
bedfollow but the political game
has a close second on the chautuu
qua this year. An apt illustration
of this fact is shown by the case of
Col. Pattee and Major Hamersly who
are membei'B of the "Old Soldier Fid
dlers," the feature attraction of the
Chautauqua opening night.
Fifty-three years ago both these
men participated In the great battle
of Gettysburg. Their own regiments
were opposed to one another and in
many of the fierce charges in that
great fight there Is no doubt but
that Col. Pattee and Major Hamers
ly were often in close proxhhlty. it
would have been sure death to have
even Intimated to either of them at
that time that there vraa a possibil
ity of their appearing together upon
a public platform and claBlng hands
under a northern flag. But today
tho two warriors are bosom friends
and, with a couple of other veterans
of the great Civil strife, are showing
Chautauqua audiences a real novel
ty In the musical line.
The four veterans are Just "fid
dlers," they disdain the term "vio
linists," and such a thing as a mu
sical education 1b unknown to them.
Early practice on a constalk fiddle
of such classics as "Money Mua'k.'
"Old- Black Joe," "Arkansas Travel
er." "Dixie," "Pop Goes the Weasel,"
"Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines"
and tho "Mocking Bird," la the nu
cleus of their present skill. Almost
every American born citizen is fa
miliar with these old tunes, and to
hear these old fiddlers reel them off
together, with a lot of other homely
folk tunes, jigs and reels, brings
back lond memories to the heart of
every listoner. The Old Soldier Fid
dlers come on the opening night of
Chautauqua.
