LITTLE PROSPECT OF PEACE We hear much of the desire of the warring nations for peace, es- pecially Germany and Austria, and nothing could give the people of this country greater satisfaction. But a glance at conditions as they are will convince the most optimistic that peace is still a long way off. In the first place, the map of Europe and other parts of the world has been much changed since this war began. While Germany has lost her colonial possessions, she has occupied other territory which, in the event she can hold it, will doubtless mean more to her than that which she has lost. Great Britain will scarcely consent to relinquish the Ger- man territory she has conquered, nor will France make peace without a restoration by Germany of Alsace-Lorraine. Japan has Kia-Chau, taken from Germany, and German armies are overrunning large portions of Rus- sian territory. Again, there has been no intimation that either the Central or En- tente powers would agree to a peace without indemnity. And the matter of indemnity is a mountain of difficulty in the way of peace negotiations. Billions have been spent by each side, and the best blood of all the na- tions has been spilled. That each would contend for indemnity unless conquered outrlgixt there can be no shadow of doubt. That neither would even think of granting indemnity there can also be no doubt. ‘With this state of affairs prevailing, and with the greatest bitterness and hatred existing that the world has ever experienced it looks as though the only hope for peace is a clean victory for one side or the other. That being the case, what is the condition facing the allies? . First, it must be admitted that Germany is far from an exhausted nation, however much we may hope that such is the case. The tenacity with which she holds to her position in the face of staggering onslaughts of the French and English is ample proof of this. Again, it becomes more apparent each day that little reliance can be placed in Russia as a positive, aggressive force. She may keep up a semb- lance of offensive, but unless she greatly improves, that will be all. She has too many forces within her borders pulling in different ‘directions. In time she may harmonize these, but it will take time, and her aid is needed now if it is to be of any benefit. Viewed from whatever angle we may view it, the conflict marrows down to a fight to a finish, with the United States as the deciding factor. And to be such deciding factor, she must throw such a force across the waters as shall by sheer numbers make a successful resistance by Ger- many no longer possible. Every loyal citizen of this country will dedicate his services and his life to this purpose. The man who at this time seeks to place obstacles in the way of the government is not worthy the citizenship he enjoys, and should be forever deprived of it. There is absolutely no use in this country for the obstructionist. SHOULD DEPORT ALIEN DISTURBERS The plan of the government to arrest and deport all aliens who re- fuse to register and who oppose the registry called for by the government absolutely meets our humble opinion and is a point we have harped upon more than once. It makes no difference whether it is a German or who it is, the prin- ciple is the same and we have long wondered what the government was thinking about in allowing such acts as have been committed to go un- noticed without a sharp jerk by the collar of the agitators and treason propogandaists. It seems that the bulk of the traitors are Germans with a horde of Austrians and Finns tacked on. They have come to the United States to escape the crush of Prussianism and seek what they never before knew —Iliberty. They are received with open arms and made welcome and THE BEMIDYI DL(LY PIUREER “Here’s a *‘Grackerjack” | A pneumatic Fountain Ink Well. The name of the well is the ECLIPSE. Nothing to get out of order. No valves, no floats. The ink from the res- ervoir falls into a small cup at the base, which provides just enough ink to cover the pen. NOT THE HOLDER. The ink sannot splash. Air and dust cannot reach the ink, therefore the -ink never becomes gummy or sticky. The last drop is as good as the first. It is made entirely of glass.

They come to a country that has its customs and its laws vastly different than those of Germany or Austria, yet when they come here they seem to get the insane idea into their heads that they can do just as they please and because the government doesn’t do as they want they commence a prbpo- ganda of hostility and treason that would not be permitted in Germany or Austria for one moment, and they know it. A German or Austrian who comes to America and becomes a good citizen is a good American and entitled to all due consideration, but aliens such as have been attempting to foment trouble against the gov- ernment they sought to harbor them should be dealt with severely. By all means they should be slammed in jail and sent back to the country they left and denied admittance to the United States thereafter.
