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.
