Patriotism Conquers Greatest World

BY CHAlU.US EDWAItl) riL'SSKI.L.
NKW YORK, April 2. What do
yon think of tills old town now?
I have lived here thlr; years, off
and on, and I tell you frankly It has
got me going.
It used to lie the most material,
cynical, wooden-faced place In Amer
ica. Cold-drawn business and all
' that, and as for patriotism you might
as woll try to strike fire from .an
icicle.
That's what wo UBcd to say. Pat
rlotlsm in New York there wasn't
any such thing! All tho rest of the
country in an emergency might get
up and holler hut little old New York
would stick to Its dollar-chase and
nover give a hang ahout anything
else.
Woll, wo wore wrong; that's all!
Tho emergency has come all right,
and Instead of giving the Icy stare as
wo prophets all predicted, the old girl
has popped up with an enthusiasm no
hody knew alio possessed. What do
you know about that?
Kmei'gency I his ('iine.
Of course, too, New York, for such
a showing, has every kind of handi
cap there is going and then some. It
Is tho grandest mixturo of nationali
ties under tho sun. You can find
hero every kind of man that walks,
hops or crawls. You know all that
good old dope about New York being
tho fourth (loritian city of Che world,
at tho snmo tlmo that It Is tho second
Hungarian, and the second Greek,
mid the third Italian, and so on. All
right. Hut It Is also the largest Amer
ican city, and In these days It Is com
ing across with some good old Amer
icanism of tho best brands.
After, of course, you net past some
aliens, anarchists, (lernians. Cerman
agents and Cerman spies, clods,
dreamers and pcaco-nt-cnv-iirii e inol
Visks. This Is to be exported. Hut
lho majority Is not only all right an. I
sound nfler having been for genera
tions tho scorn or Three Oaks and
Rolling Prairie, but 1H now giving les
sons in patriotism to the proud Inter
ior! Tho streets nro aflame wllh Ameri
can flags, often in masses very won
derful and moving. About every cith-
or man you meet has an American
flag In his button hole. At every
mooting where there Is the least pat
riotic suggestion the feeling Is extra
ordinary. Wherever ynu go the peo
ple arc talking about It and among
all Americans there Is slinwv the fl-i-est
possible spirit, which you mljiht
miinniiirlzc, from lhe(icomiucMis ;.i,n
hear, aboul like t.itn:
"Ww aro In a Flute of war, not for
dollars, business or self-interest, Si'H
for tho sako of an ideal. II is lictKr I
to fight, sacrifice or din for an ideal
than to lot nil Ideals perish from the
earth. Whatever the cost may i.e.
wo are In, we nro right In being In.
and wo will go straight through o
tho end. whatever that may be."
I think that Is pretty fine spirit -for
a city supposed to be without hu
man feeling. Also men say:
No Siiiiiiliils Wmih.iI.
"No nonsense cues with us about a
merely defensive war or any nice lit
tle sword-dance staged where milmdv
will get hurt. I..I K with everything
we have and let Ko quick, clean the
Job up right that the world iuii have
peace, have It soon ami have ll Ii.
stay."
.Voro than that, I can report that
any attempt to turn those fat old
tricks that were turned In imis an, I
gouge profits out 01 ii. necessities
of tho government, will not be verv
popular In New York this tilp. T ',.
Is a very different feeling now in th,
nuilerlnl obi place. hat goes imw
Is to give what the nation needs .1:1,1
be glad of a chance to give It. what
over it is!
I sat Krldny at a table In 11 do'vi,
town restaurant w I' , five oilier men
oil typical New Yorkers, and In the I
course of tho luncheon the fai t 1 uue
out casually tl at cac h of the five had

Senator Weeks Issued a statement
testifying that Senator Lodge was not
the aggressor, but was attacked by
Bannwart and the pacifist par:y.
Weeks said:
"The unprovoked and disgraceful
a3ault has a far wider significance
than simply pn assault upon an Indi
vidual. It is well for the country to
take notice '.bat those who claim to
be trying tc keep the country out cf
war are among the most Intolerant
of our citizens. Such people should
be watched. I doubt tho good faith
and loyalty of men and women who
are so far lost to the proprieties as
these who committed the offense."
