As a matter of fact, the cause of popular government is helped and forwarded in the earth by this very latitude. [ ' ) But these are not ordinary times. They are very extraordinary times, and in extraordinary times, extraordinary proceedings become necessary. The real patriot, in this emergency, will place not a straw in the way of those engaged with carrying out the plans of the government. It mat- ters not the shade of political belief in days past, the man who really has the welfare of his country at heart in this crisis will forget politics and all pertaining to it, and join whole-heartedly in helping in every way to aid the government in the huge task that is facing it. s The truly great men of the nation have already taken this stand. Mr. Taft, Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Bryan, Mr. Root and scores of other great leaders of public thought have forgotten that they have any political bias and are standing shoulder to shoulder with those in authority in safe- guarding the nation. It is only the two-by-four or the secretly disloyal who are endeavoring to thwart the will of the authorities. We say “will of the authorities” advisedly, because the American people have placed these men in authority and are holding them to a strict account for their every act. President Wilson will have to answer at the bar of public opinion for his every act. That being the case, he should be as free as possible to carry out his plans. He should, in fact, be given every opportunity to make good. And it is-not only in ‘the halls of Congress that one meets obstruc- tionists. Men in all walks of life can cripple and obstruct the govern- mental machinery. Every unthinking criticism has its effects. The know- it-all who imagines he could or would do so and so, is as truly obstructing as the member of Congress who openly antagonizes the administration on the floor of house or senate. We pride ourselves on our willingness to give every man the square deal. Let us put our boast in active practice. We have placed on the leaders a terrible responsibility. Let us see to it that they are not pre- vented, through our unfaithful and ungrateful conduct, from a full dis- charge of that responsibility. . The man who in this crisis cannot place his country first doesn’t de- gerve a country. In ordinary times, German statesmen denounce President Wilson as an autocrat, and at- tempt to favorably compare their government with this, on the ground that they “‘have the king’s pledge that the general, direct, equal and secret ballot, the most liberal electoral franchise in the world, will now become an institution in Prussia.” All very fine and high-sounding, but we might remind our Teuton critics that this same ‘‘general, direct, equal and secret ballot” has always prevailed in this country, and that it is solidly and unanimously behind our President. Those German statesmen might enlighten the world by stating to just what extent the masses of that un- happy country have participated in governmental affairs in the PAST and do participate at PRESENT. As for the future participation of those masses, it may be in a manner not at all to the liking of the Prussian statesmen. When a man between the ages of 21 and 31 resist the draft, we pro- ceed to handle him without gloves. When a man past 31 works his jaw over time resisting not only the draft, but every other measure of self- préservation the government has enacted, we pass a resolution to ‘‘inves- tigate” his loyalty. We don’t like the word “copperhead,” but it’s the only word that fits, and everybody knows the fate decreed for the serpenl. An exchange wants to know ;‘why it takes a woman so long to put on the little she wears to evening functions.” Well, she has to be very par- ticular as to location. A mistake would be embarrassing. Looking for a safe bank for your war-price savings, neighbor? What's the matter with Uncle Sam’s great Liberty Bank? An exchange speaks of “most of the beef at the average man’s table.” That’s a mistake. It ain’t there. Quit wondering when the war will end, and decide when YOU are going to help start it. .

Not one that cures some particular cough, but coughs in gener: It must be a cough remedy that can be relied upon for all the different coughs that are so prevalent. While the causes of all coughs are primarily the same, yet the condition of the patient is what makes the difference in the nature of the cough itself, Coughs of healthy persons are easier to cure than the coughs of invalids. The powerful convulsive cough of a large man is harder to cure than the cough of a baby. If you get a remedy that will cure a large man's cough and yet not be too powerful . for the baby, you have a good cough remedy. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is just this kind of remedy. It is good for any member of the family. It relieves coughs of all kinds. It is the product of much thought and study to produce an ideal cough remedy. It is com- posed of things which cure easily and soothingly without harm- ing the most delicate tissues of the throat. It acts as easily and safely on the young as on the old, and is the ideal remedy for coughs, colds, croup, influenza, whooping cough and bronchitis.” MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS Wholesale and Retail Pianos, Organs and Sewing Machines 117 Third St. Phone 573-W J.
