COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPKlt "I pledge allegiance to my Flag, and to the Republic for which It stands, one Nation Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All." THE ROAD TO FAME (The National Arts Club Prize Poem) Thank God our liberating lance Goes flaming on the way to France! To France the trail the Gurkhas found! To France old England's rallying ground! To France the path that Russians strode! To France the Anzac's glory rord! To France where our Lost Lesion ran To fight and die for God and man! To France with every race and breed That hates Oppression's brutal creed! Ah France how could our hearts forget Tho path by which came Lafayette? How could the haze of doubt hang low Upon the road of Rochambeau? How was it that we missed the way Hrave Joffre leads us along to'lay? At last, thank God! At last we see There is no tribal Liberty! No beacon lighting just our shores! No Freedom guarding but our doors! The flame she kindled for our sires Burns now in Europe's battle tires! The soul that led our fathers west Turns back to free tho world's op pressed ! Allies, you have not called in vain! We share your conflict aud your pain! "Old Glory," through new stains and rents. t Partakes of Freedom's sacraments! Into that hell His will creates We drive the foe; his lusts, his hates! Last come, we will be last to stay Till Right has had her crowning day! Replenish, comrades, from our veins, Tho blood the sword of despot drains. And make our eager sacrifice Part of the freely rendered price You pay to lift humanity You pay to make our brothers free! See, with what proud hearts wt ad vance To France! David M.

The sharp and Increasing demand for his expulsion dates from the delivery of his disloyal St. Paul harrp.ngue. Prior to that, while the country's patriotic citizenship felt that hid utterances were harmful, his asserted privilege of opposition was generally tolerated. But his St. Paul utterances put him visibly over the line that divides loyalty from disloyalty, and a shock ed and indignant public sprang to protest. On that speech LaFolletto evaded the issue. He dealt with criticisms of himself In general. Asserting an air of martyrdom, he falsely con structed his Saturday speech around the unwarranted assumption that himself and all his associate peace-at-any-prlce and kaiserlte defenders lutve been denied a fair hearing; that their case has never gone to the great American Jury. The truth is, and all observers know it. that the LaFollette doctrine was kept -v noisily, theatrically and contInuouslytefore tho public from the beginning of tho world war in August, 1914, down to the hour of our own entrance Into the conliict I'or moro than two years the Ani' r lean public listened patiently and re flectively to every argument put for ward by the pacifists and pro-l:aiser element. For two years leaders like Jioosevelt, Root, Garrison (when sec retary of war in the Wilson cabinet) und Senator Chamberlain of Oregon were bitterly, vituporatlvely and per sistently assailed by the pacifist ele ment under the leadership of men like La Follette. Journals which advocated rugged Americanism were falsely attacked as bought organs of the munition makers. Every anti American utterance In Herlin was echoed ad libitum and ad nauseam by the pacifist element In this coun try. Finally the case went to the Jury, i The New 1918 Maxwell Gives you all the room all the com fortall the conveniences and leauty ob tainable in any car selling at $1200.
