When President Wilson asked the Congress to declare a staté of war with Germany, with the exception of a very few exceptions the response was immediate and emphatic. - Party lines disappeared as if by magic and all were Americans first, last and all the time. And since that date the same state of _cohesion has continued, Democrats, Republicans, Prohibition- ists and Progressives vieing in their loyalty to the administra- tion, until from the proceedings in the two houses of Congress one would be at,a logs to tell who were Democrats and who were not. . This unanimity of action evidenced a fine spirit of loyalty the administration’s backing for the time d augurs well for :fieafi gf us. But next fall the general elections are coming on, and many members will-be compelled to contest before the people for their seats in that body. 3 ; There is now coming to be a large sentiment throughout the country that in thé coming elections we as'a people consent to drop for a time' our propensity for politics and return these same men to the national capital on their records. It is pointed out that France has prorogued her elections and continues in harness the men who have been bearing the brunt of war legis- lation. This is done from various reasons, principal of which is that there may be no suspicion of- dissatisfaction with her legislators that might give encouragement to the enemy. "4t will certainly detract from the efficiency of the Congress if any large number of its members are forced to make a fight . for their positions. It would be a graceful act of the American people if in the coming election -each man _who has stood staunchly at his post and upheld the honor of his country, were to given his election again as a mark of confidence tendered him by his constituents. Whether he be of one party or the other, for his election to be conceded by the opposite party would constitute one of the finest displays of loyalty and fidel- ity imaginable. It would say to_our enemies that our represen- tatives have faithfully voiced our sentiments in their every act, and that we have implicit confidence in their loyalty and integrity. s Our country is facing a stupendous task and needs to come - to this work united in sentiment and determination. No such disturbing factors-as-partisan politics should be permitted to interfere swith @ur anity of action or take from.our full effi- ciency. fiufing he past year we have almost lost sight of poli- tics, and it might be the best thing we could do if we continue blind to its lure. S B —0 = MUST UTILIZE ALL HUMAN ENERGY There is a job for every one at this time and not a single ounce of energy must or will bé wasted, accordit;g to Orgier No. 37, adopted by the State Safety Commission at its meeting last week. i * The proyisions of Order No. 37 are such as to still further solve the farm labor proposition. The passage of the order is the latest and most popular of a long series of plans that have had their inceptions as well as practical application with the Public Safety. Commission. L The order provides that every male person abovel6 years of age mast be employed or-give good and sufficient excuse for his idleness. It is not expected that professional loafers are good material for farm hands, yet if they were employed in some capacity it will releave labor more desirable for the use of the farmer who wants first class help. Especially important is this order at this time when every ounce of available man power must be conserved and employed in order to assist in the production of food and all other articles essential for war purposes. The order goes further than a similar federal order, known as the “Work or Fight” ruling, as it makes the age limit 16 years and makes it obligatory upon the sheriff of the county to enforce its provisions, in co-operation with all peace, municipal and special peac Qgicers. ik While many e orders of the commission as war meas- ures have been about:ag popular as war itself, Order No. 37 is porular with everybody except the shirker and loafer and the 'l of the New York Police Force, farmer will feel that he has a staunch, and true friend in the commission in the solution of all problems that effect him ma- terially in the conduct of his business. — ey 4 MEXICO, THE UNCERTAIN Just now the world is wondering exactly what is behind the action of Mexico in severing diplomatic relations with Cuba. In the history of nations, severance of relations has always been regarded as but a step from a declaration of war, and in rare instances has a nation failed to take-the second step. Will Mexico take the usual next step? And should she do so, have we thought what effect this will have upon this country? . Cuba is nominally under the protection of the United States. Since that island was freed from Spanish rule, we have assumed the responsibility for permanent peace in the little re- public. Can we evade responsibility for her safety from an outside foe as well? If Mexico were any other country than Mexico, one might form some plausible guess as to the outcome of the matter. But being Mexico the Uncertain, all guesses are futile. A MIGHT AGAIN BE MADE WELCOME Should the German language be taught and -studied in America? Perhaps not just now, but one of these days “kul- tur” and “spurlos’ versenkt” and “schrecklichkeit” will be blotted out of it, and it will not then be considered so obnoxious as is now the case. —————— : The poorer classes in Turkey are now living on chestnuts and pumpkin seeds. - With this in view, we*cannot object to a ration of cornmeal, oatmeal and barley flour. —_——— A quarter for a War Thrift Stamp, and no quarter for the Huns, will speed the winning of the war.
