The imssiun of America is about
to be accomplished.
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

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."

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.

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.

Mile are transacting business in the
