upon uie (iicsii'iifion ot j-oncrty in tins country in case of
American reprisals for (lie war being waged on America
ly Germany?
Are we 'built of riff-raff of llie globe ? We can tell by
tlie )atriolism shown in the response of the nation to the
effort to uphold American rights and prevent the murder
of Amercan citizens upon the high seas.
The revolutionary war had its tories. The civil Avar
had its copper-heads. Is the Mar with Germany to de
velop similar traitors, human submarines to torpedo us
without warning from within?
Patriotism does not consist in merely saluting the flag,
rt consists in every one doing their share to aid in the na
tional defense. Actions speak louder than words and all
must lie willing to sacrifice for American ideals and the
perpetuation of democracy.
The best preparedness for the youth and young men of;
me country is to join the .National Guard. Here they can
master the drill and the -rudiments of military tactics and
n: duty calls them, be ready to do their share. They will
secure llie necessary preparation and avoid months of
dreary drilling, csscnt ial in the creating of an army. They
win nae a great advantage over tile volunteers and draft
ed men of a later time, for they will be prepared.
lu'om the guard, if they desire, they can graduate into
other branches of t he service. AVh'-n volunteers are called
for, their familiarity with the service will oneu the doors
or speeuy promotion. 1 1 their services are not needed, the
physical benefit;! of drilling and discipline amply compen
sate them for time beneficially spent.
llie local nnlilia company is threatened with extinction
(so many of its members have enlisted in various branches
of the military service. In ordinary times, such a condi
tion would catuse little concern, but with the country on
the verge of war, with every able-bodied man likely to be
needed for national defense, such a condition sneaks sor
rily for the patriotism of the community.
voutiis owe it to themselves and to their country, to
prepare for future emertreiicies. Parents owe it to their
children as well as the nation, to speed their preparedness.
i ue can may come ai any nour ana tnc noguc itiver val

Young men, who read this, prove your patriotism and
your love for the flair by prcparincr -to defend it bv ioinin.o-
the National Guard. Parents who read this, prove vour
patriotism by insisting upon the instruction of your 'sons
in the art of defending the nation lest the need of the
nation take them at a later time all unprepared and
through their unpreparedness, sacrifice both nation and
themselves.

from tho Cincinnati Times-Star, writ

authenticity of which Is vouched for
by tho Times-Star. Tho letter reflects
tho real vluwa of tho autocracy of

l-:rrcm Zlmbalist, the Violin Virtuoso.
This celebrated violinist who will
appear at the XatntorVum on April
17th, with Mr. Damrosch, and his
New York Symphony Orchestra, is
ono of our three greatest vllolnlsts.
Their names are: Krelsler, Elinan
and Zlmbnllst. Zlmbalist Is the hus
band of tho well known prima donna,
Alma Gluck. They toured this coun
try last year in joint recital, and wore
enthusiastically rcerved in all the
principal cities In the United States.
Mr. George Andrews in arauglng this
engagement, lias furnished tho op
portunity of hearing this very unusu
al artist In connection with tho Now
York Symphony Orchostra. If you
aro not familiar with the Ximhnllst
records, hear tho duet played by he
and b'ritz, Kricsler, and you will have
difficulty In trying tri decide which Is
tho greater artist. A new stage is
being erected in the auditorium of
the Nat., in front of the old one and
nearer the center of the room, so that
every patron will have full view of
the orchestra, and this change vastly
improves the accustlcs of the room.
Every seat will be found to be a good
ono. The prices have been made ex
ceptionally low for an attraction of
this kind. In fact, lower than, any
other engagement they play on the
coast, and Is no higher thnn have

rrigate With Electric Power
Irritjatio i by electrically driven pumps is economical, reliable anil efficient and
excels any oilier form of power.
Motor j may tjc driven day and night if desired, with no other care than an oc
casional re lcwal of oil.
To sta t, it is simply necessary to throw a switch.
If you have a source of water supply from Well, Creek, Pond or River, you can
Irrigate by Electric Power and have water when and where you want it.
Our pnver Lines cover a large portion of Jackson and Josephine Counties and
we are constantly making new extensions.
