POLITICAL PARTISANSHIP DEAD
SOMK newspapers do not seem to realize, that the, polit
ical campaign of last year ended with tho re-election
of President Wilson last November and that national
polities will not lie an is-iiic for three years when entirely
new leaders, new issues and new alignments will he devel
oped, for the war is changing the relations of mankind.
Yet some papers continue harping futilely and ineffec
tively upon the dead issues of the past.
Since election, the national and international situation
has entirely changed national issues being subordinated
to international. The nation is at war, a belligerent in the
greatest conflict in the World's history forced to fight to
defend national rights and honor and preserve democracy
Mid civilization.
President Wilson was chosen commander-in-chief of
the armed forces of the United States and the' elected
chief of tin; nation. It is the duty of every citizen and
every newspaper to give him loyal and active support in
the conduct of the war. It is not the part of patriotism to
seek to create division and discord by revamping peanut
partisanship.
This war is not a partisan war, but a national war
waged to protect America and to safeguard the country.
Our troops in France, are fighting for national preserva
tion just us much as they would be if the battlefield was
on our own whores, and the least wo who are left at home
can do is to loyally second their efforts in the field.
In modern warfare it is not the army, but the entire
nation, that wages war.
This war is being conducted in a non-partisan scien
tific, maimer. There are no-political generals strutting
around like turkey cocks, as in the civil and Spanish
American wars. The best, brains of the nation, regardless
of politics, have been called in as experts, and are patri
otically serving the nation in the council of national de
fense. The army and navy are being built up and managed
by the non-partisan general staffs. The army abroad is
commanded by the republican Pershing. The American
mission to Russia was headed by the republican Root.
Tal't, as head of the Red Cross, lias been commissioned as
major-general. The republican Hoover is food adminis
trator. There is as much, perhaps more, republican sup
port for the administration in congress than there is dem
ocratic. It is not at all improbable that ere long a non
partisan cabinet will surround the president.
For the time being, the nation has dropped the cloak' of
partisanship to don the garb of patriotism and those who
refuse to co-operate are giving aid and comfort to the
eneinv.
BUYING OUT
rT"MIK attention of pacifists and those clamoring for a
I niade-in-(lerniany peace is called to the following
excerpt from a recent speech delivered by .David Lloyd
tii'orge on the subject of peace. under proposals emanat
ing from (iei'inan agents in Russia, and since vitalized by
Pope, .Honed ict:
Well, you can have peaco at that price, hut do you know what it would
be? The old policy of buying out tho (loth, who eventually destroyed the
Itoman Knipiru and threw Kuropo into the ages of barbarous cruelties.
Ilelleve me, that policy bad its iiudoublod advantages. 1 can hear the
echoes of t hn puclllsts of the day In I ho Itoman Forum dwelling on tho
fact that if they could only buy out the Oolhs at. a small price compared
with tho war, a little territory and a llltlo cash, tho Itoman youth would
be spared tho terrors of war and their parents tho anxieties of war. Peo
ple of all ranks and classes would avoid tho hardships of war and ho ahlo
to continue their lives of comfort, and luxury nnd ease. The pacifists of
the day, when they made their barrain, thought that they avoided blood
shed. They had only transmitted it to tho children.
Ii'oinc listened to pacifists and made peace. The peace
left the status iiio for Rome, until the (ioths bad time to
prepare more thoroly Ihru the advantages gained, when
they sacked Rome and destroyed the empire. Civilization
perished and the chaos of the dark ages followed.
The Jot lis were Teutonic barbarians but their lmr
barism pales when compared to that of present-day Teu
tons' slaughter, devastation and vandalism. They did not
make war on the defenseless. They did not systematically
destroy a country as the (lermans did in retreating from
.Franco.
( 'ivilizal ion is as much in peril today from tho Teutonic
barbarian as it was in the days of the (loth. Any pence
that loaves the modern barbarian in position to renew his
efforts for world enslavement will be as fatal for civiliza
tion as it was in the days of ancient Rome. There will be
no abiding peace on earth until barbarian autocracy is de
st lined.

It, all reports to tho contrary notwith
standing. Kuports were circulated
that thoro would be a delay of from
two weeks to a month, but the school
board never contemplated Kiicb no
tion. Ilenee the date as nbov-; set
forth.
The terms "East Side" and "Wes
Side," as npplied so familiarly for
yearn to the former main school
buildings, have been oast into the
discard. The enst structure is nov
known as "Hawthorne" school, pre
sumably named after the noted au
thor and man of letters. , An attempt
was made to foist an aborinal term
upon this building, but the nomencla
ture wus as difficult in spelling as it
was in pronunciation. It miht have
served the puriose of designating a
roundup, but was found to be a men
tal jawbreaker as applied to naming
a popular institution of learning,
hence the attempt was frowned
down. The "West Side" building is
known as the Junior Hib School, a
term which has proved slow in be
hitf adopted, but the desiejiation will
become familiar in due season. Let
tering on both of these buildings will
indicate the proper names thereof.

PLANS 10 MOVE
SAX FliAM'ISCO, An. 20.
Plans for the movement oC over a
million men tbc lnrjrost troop
movement in the history of the coun
try are now bcinjr perfected by the
American linilway association at the
request of the United States povern
ment. Altogether, (!S7,000 men will
have to be transported to the vari
ous cantonments now buililins to
house the new national nrniy, and
.'l.'iO.OOtl national suanlsnien art. ,.Vcn
now being assembled nt their camps.
This was the announcement made
today by ('. J. McDonald, who, as
L'eneral agent of Hie western depart
ment heaihpiarters of Hie associ.-i-t
tion, is perfecting the details out
here.
"The movement will start about
September 5." said McDonald. "I'.e
twoen that date and September 0 the
roads will complete the entraimnent
of 200,000 men, or about ill! per cent
of the total to be moved to the camps.
"It is expected that n second
movement of nnolher 200.000 will
begin on September 10, continuiin.'
for four days thereafter; and a third
movement of the same size will start
on October 2.
"An idea of the task in makiii',' out
schedules that will guarantee the
safe nnd prompt transportation of
these armies may be g-lrnned fn,M1
the fact that, to move merely one
field army of 80,000 takes (i,2'J0
ears, made up into ;i(iti trains, wilb
as many locomotives and crews.
And (here lire over twelve times as
many men concerned in the plans we
are now workine; out.
"We have also been asked for
transportation to carry the :i."i0,0OH
members of the national pnard to
their training camps. The national
guard movement has already started
and will continue in increasing vol
ume until all have been moved.
"Shippers and receivers of freihl
have been appealed to by the ear ser
vice commissions, and can grcally
help if (hey will co-operale with rc
spM. to commercial freight, keeping
in mind the herculean task the roads
are performing in handling this enor
mous traffic.
