THE 'NEWS FROM‘ MAINE. (Ft. Wayne (Ind.) News) There is ‘no mistaking the significance of Monday’s elec- tion in Maine. ‘That state's ‘stalwart’ Americanism will' be challenged by none, yet in an off ‘year, her people confronted by a specious though frenzied appeal to “stand by the presi- dent,” they calmly and quitly elected a republican United States senator and a solidly republican delegation to tlge lower house. The republican ‘majority of 1916 was materially ‘in~ creased and there:is a certain sultry suggestion in the fact ‘that the republican candidates for congress ran far ahead of the republican ticket. Indeed, the majority of Senator Fernald was twice as large as that of Gov. Milliken. Maine recorded herself much more strongly republican on national-issues than those of a local charater. 1t is delightfully apparent that the e up to them to stand behind not a partisan 9dministration in Washington but rather the boys “over there,” and they pro- ceeded to do 80 in a very practical and enthusiastic manner. The result in Maine:is a very. fitting reply to-the impudent assertions of Vice President Marshall and others that.“the war is an asset of the democratic party” and that loyalty can be proved only by kow-towing to a flock of democratic politicians. It demonstrates very conclusively that the pedple have been neither hoodwinked nor coerced by the attempt of the Wash- ington -administration ‘to capitalize’ the war for partisan: pur- poses -and it is the casting before ‘of the coming event of-the November election. 5 Rt B v i WITHOUT BLOODSHED. During the American operations against Metz a German " regiment underwent ‘an’ almost unique-experience. It ' was flanked right and left simultaneously,.and though it might have continued to fight it did just as practical a thing in‘surrender- ing. The Americans could have massacred it or starved it with- out ‘losing a man. Its colonel called the roll, and every man answered. He; then suggested to his captors that as his command was so-dis- tressingly complete it might as well preserve'its organization, and with its officers and non-coms it marched, ‘disarmed and under ‘escort, to the detention camp. The only thing lacking was a brass band.. The coup was accomplished by Yankee quickness. - This was made’ possible by flawless transportation facilities and ‘equipment. These things ‘make for ‘bloodless victory. And they cost money. The amount called for in the new loan appeal is stupen- dous, It is not'a case of “Have you bought a‘bond?” but “How many have you bought?” 3 But money means superior equipment and bloodless tri- umphs. Fighting with safety—so far ‘as it is possible—im- proves with organization. '‘Death and causualty rates have shrunk considerably at the front. We have seen 8 per cent'go to 3 per cent. Money buys gas-masks, life-saving appliances and -hos- pital equipment. It’s our money or the lives of our boys. Don’t weaken, men and women of Bemidji. AGAIN, HIS MAJESTY, THE KAISER, YELPS. il One could almost get a smile out@%f the German protest to America against the use of the ‘‘sawed off:shotgun,”’ which ‘has' been doing such deadly work in'the' hands of ‘the Yankees. The kaiser threatens reprisals on American prisoners if the use of the terrors are not stopped, and so informed the United " States. "He was politely told, in reply, not ‘to start anything along that line for the reason a large part of the German em- ‘pire’s population is in custody of the allies, of which the United States is a potent factor. Shades of the Lusitaina, the bombing of ‘defenseless Red Cross }\ospltals, the butchery of babes, the rape of Belgium, the poison igas and the gamut of crimes indescribable; the cre- at.ilona of a disordered brain. Again, His Majesty, the Kaiser, yelps. FEW MEN ARE SELF STARTERS. One advantage of the war is that it compels men to develop. ‘Few men are self-starters,‘capable of pushing‘them- selves to the limit for an indefinite time. Dynamic bosses in peace time and the vital necessities of war bring out of these men the possibilities which but for this foreing would never develop. A great vision or a'great:ambition furnishes the driving force in many men, but in’war time, all'men are under- pressure, stimulated, driven, compelled to-bring up every ounce ‘of reserve and latent ability to jpreserve their dives. War -has this, at least to its credit. If the gréat men, the resourceful men produced by this conflict can’but find some great, stimulat- ing task for their newly awakened abilities-after-the war, then shall we see great things come to pass in the next generation. 0 The Kaiser’s hair has grown grey since the war began. Probably in the same proportion in which his prospects have grown dark. PIRRCESTID | Wt > -~ By this time you have probably decided that you never did like sugar in your coffee anyhow.
