" For all tha bloody, horrible, weary year* at thia war, England and France have bean fighting the battle* o f freedom and have stood like a wall at fin between theae U in tad States and the fata the Kaiaer had meant fo r ua. Read on another page o t thia paper the story o f hle-ylans fo r rav aging tha South Am erican continent in defiance o f our Monroe doctrine, had not the fire broken oa t in Europe first. See where w * are to gat off i f ha can hare his way and make Ger many supreme in Europe. That waa what ha began the war fo r and it waa onfy the heroic resistance o f little Belgium as his legions began to tram ple her down that prevented him from dictating term s in Paris. Than ha would have bean supreme in Eu rope. But France Bad tim e to m o bilise and was able to turn tha Ger man arm y back at tha battle a f tha Marne. By that tim e Great B ritain was ready to com e to her aid but with such pitifully few soldiers that France eras bled white and lost an awful percentage o f her soldiers be fore England could train an arm y and get enough men on the western fron t to make it secure. But behind E ng land there was alw ays A m erica. She and France w ere fighting our battles. They alone stood between the German navy, this German arm y and our shores. It would be sim ple suicide fo r our people to fa il to com e to the help o f the Lord against the m ighty. W e have began to realise that now, and we w ill certainly send an arm y o f a m illion or tw o m illion men to fight our own battle in Europe rather than allow Germany to win. It is Just as if a row o f stores on our street were in flames and w e w ere standing back while the wind was com ing our way and insisting that it was the business o f the fellow s whose property was al ready in flames to pu t out the fire— that we should take no risks and in cur no expense to help them. It am outs sim ply to this. The Kai ser m ast be put out o f the governing business. He must be com pletely de feated and cease to rule or there is no safety fo r any free governm ent on earth. We have stirred very late but we have stirred and we are goin g to keep on preparing and get to fighting as soon as we can. F or the beet way, the only effective w ay now to defend bar own homes and our free institu tions is on the battle fields o f Europe. The action o f tha Germ an- Am eri can Club, o f M arshfield ,and its ring ing resolutions o f Am ericanism ia a splendid answer to harsh and ofton^ bitter and bigoted criticism o f our Gorman citizens. The Germ an-Am eri can du b was organised fo r social purposes bat with n fine sense o f del icacy and fitness and to disarm any criticism they disbanded during the continuance o f the war. Their res olution to support the United States in this conflict is abundant p o o f o f their loyalty to their adopted coun try.— Coos Bay Timas.
