Auiorltan soldiers iu France are at this moment demonstrating to the world the reason for America aud the stuff of which this Republic is made. Their complete success and the the consequent eternal establishment everywhere in the world of the in tegrity of American rights, interests and honor and the right of men to govern themselves, are all assured with the proper performance of the plainest duty of the citizenry at home. The Fourth Liberty Loan is our next objective. There is no geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country. Democrats ond Republi cans alike love their flag and are ready to die for it. We continually insist for all parties that the war be kept out of partisan politics and that partisanship be kept out of the war. Just as in Congress the Republi cans led the fight that made possible the passage of the great war measures, so now the Party member ship and organization has an im mediate, definite war task in the ac complishment of which it can fully function. I repeat, let there be. no contest in this country as to any thing that touches the war except that contest who best can serve, who most can give. The success of the Fourth Liberty Loan shall be the Republican party's supreme motif of thought and action until that objective is attained. Wherever Republicans are to gether, by two or two thousand, it shall be a win-the-war meeting. Just as the Republican party's every action at all times has been and shall be determined solely by how we can contribute most to the war's success, so now our every thought action shall be determined entirely by how we can make certain the quick over-subscription of the Fourth Liberty Loan. This is a 'United country's next message to Germany. The entire Republican organiza tion in every voting precinct in this country shall be a fighting force in this Liberty Loan drive. This is the Republican organiza tion's business. This is the real business of every man, woman and child in America. "Everything else is chores." WILL H. HAYES. GERMANY'S PLIGHT. Prof. George Wegener says in the course of an article printed In the Cologne Gazette under the caption "In the Midst of the Hurricane:" I "Let us recognize that our father land is like an isolated vessel in tha midst of a furiously raging hurri cane. There is nothing for us to do except to make all efforts to use all our force to increase the ship's power of resistance and to facilitate the work of the men at the wheel. Nobody can leave the ship. We have to reach the harbor or sink. To complain and whine only increases the chance of disaster and revolt." . "Revolt'' is what is most feared by Germany today. It may come, but whether it does or not, Germany is doomed. Her wisest course would be to surrender unconditionally and at once. She will have more left to rebuild it. It will cost her country dearly if the Allies have to pound their way into Berlin. For they are on their way and will arrive. j 5-8 lOl'KTH IJBKKTY LOAN ! APPORTIONED. Following official advices from Washington that the amount of the Fourth Liberty Loan was $6,000, 000,000. of which 6.7 per c;nt or 1402,000,000 was charged against this Federal Reserve District, G. K. Weeks, General Campaign Manager, has given out the reapportionment among states in the Twelfth District which has been made by the general executive board on the basis of gross bank resources averaged between the December 31, 1917 and June 29, 1918, bunk calls. These quotas for major divisions of the Twelfth Dis trict, are as follows: , Arizona $ 6,231,200' California (Northern)- 185,48S,0u0 California (Southern). 72.007, lioO Idaho 14,549,400 Nevada 5,033,850 Oregon 33,708,100 Vtah 18,570,800 Washington 68,215,800 Alaska 1,369,400 Hawaii 6,765,050 President Wilson urges generous support for schools of all grades du.rins war time. In a letter to Secretary Lane approving the Bureau of Education's plan for an education al campaign this summer and fall, ha says: "I am pleased to know that despite the unusual burdens imposed upon our people by the war they have maintained their schools and other agencies of education so nearly at their normal oflictency. That this should be continued throughout the war and that, in so far as the draft law will permit, there should be no falling on iu attendance iu ele mentary schools, high schools, or colleges is a matter of ,the very greatest importance, affecting both our strength iu war and our national welfare and efficiency when the war is over. So long as the war con tinues there will be constant need of very large numbers of men and women of the highest and most thorough training for war service in many lines. After the war tuero will be urgent need riot only for trained leadership in all lines of in dustrial, commercial, social, and civic life, but for a very high average of intelligence and preparation on the part of all the people. I would therefore urge that the people con tinue to give generous support to their schools of all grades and that the schools adjust themselves as wisely as possible to the new con ditions, to the end that no boy or girl shall have less opportunity for education because of the war and that the Nation may be strengthened as it can only be through the right education of all its people. I approve most heartily your plans for making through the Bureau of Education a comprehensive campaign for the support of the schools and for the maintenance of attendance upon them, aud trust that you may have the cooperation in this work of the American Council of Education." H The amazing possibilities of na tional profits from national econo mies are revealed in statistics fur nished toy the Fuel Administrator. It is shown that the money saved by American people who locked up their automobiles for a gasless Sunday on September 1 amounted to $1, 250,000. This is enough to feed the whole American Army in France for two days; to buy 6,000 machine guns costing $250.00 each; or to provide 35,784 completely equipped rifles for the American Infantry. 1-5 SACIUFIOK IS NEEDED TO WIN WAK Frank B. Anderson, president of the Bank of California, one of the most careful, authoritative observers of industrial conditions, sounds the following straight-frora-the-shoulder warning to the American public, which he asserts, is not making the sacrifices necessary to the success of the government's gigantic war program. Asked for his opinion upon the current state of affairs in the United States in connection with the war Anderson soid: "The financial situation is well in hand and the machinery for grant ing credit 1 ample. No essential enterprises need fear that they will not be, taken care of for their season al needs, but all non-essential enter prises will be brought to understand that the government needs the credit which It is using and the labor which it is employing; the adjust ment will be brought about grad ually so as to create as little hard ship as possible. "The people of tho country, must realize that they cannot give the government the power to purchase tho tilings it needs and retain that purchasing power for themeslves. "Much more stern economy must be practiced, otherwise the govern ment's program cannot be carried out. There is not sufficient labor and manufacturing capacity in the country to allow the population to live as it Is now living, and. in ad dition allow the government to procure all that it needs." It is reported in the daily papers that Morrow county is over the top in the Fourth Liberty Loan. This is a mistake, as we are informed by the Committee that there is about $56, 000 to be raised yet to make good our quota of $272,420.00. The vork is going right along, however and we expect to be able to announce by next issue that the quota has been ( subscribed. The Committee is busy i seeking out all thoBa who have made no subscriptions and they are being encouraged also by many who are 1 coming along for greater amounts. It must be realized that to go out ! now, in the face of poor crtips anl the tie-up of the wool market, and I raise such a stupendous sum in this. 1 small county, is by no means a smoll task, but just the same Morrow county will go over and the subscrip tion will be made good before many ' days. Just at this time, however, it j is a little too early for the shouting. Frank Frates and wife of Eight Mile are transacting business in the city today. VP-"1 oAgency 'Victor Ladies Tailoring Co.
