If the Germans do not win a decision in their present | drive, the war will probably be greatly prolonged, | and every million of men we can get across will| mean the shortening of it. If the Germans do win through their present efforts, we'll need armies of millions all right, and; we won't be bothered with the problem of shipping | them abroad, either. \ And just about a year ago, the allies had the Hindenburg line broken but didn’t know what to; do with the break! y WHEN IT JARS Saturday, during the big fighting, the war de-! partment at Washington cabled General Pershing | to.“forward immediately definite information of the exact situation on the battle. front.” The war department’ fellow who sent out that cablegram must ‘board at a “short order” res- taurant. We hope that Pershing had a chance to! hand it over to Secretary Baker, for answer. We've never seen that cablegram equalled as an order for news save one, when, on the second day of the San Francisco fire, an editor wired four times, demanding definite information as to the exact parts of the city the fire was going to reach.

WITH THE EDITORS THE SHAME OF WISCONSIN At the time this is written, it is by no means certain that the republicans of the state of Wis- consin have nominated Lenroot for senator from that state. The indications, in fact, at that time were that the chances of Thompson, the LaFollette and therefore the kaiser—candidate, were about as good as those of Lenroot, American. Wisconsin ought to be ashamed of itself. It matters not whether Lenroot finally wins, or whether Thompson crawls under the wire a win-| the German-born residents of the state should be doubly ashamed. For the vote shows there are a lot of persons with German blood in their veins, living in Wisconsin, who still place the kaiser and Germany above the interests of the United States. They should hide their heads in shame for their disloyalty. For any person who votes for any candidate this year whose loyalty to the United States,-or whose determination that the United States shall keep on fighting until the war is won and until German is decisively, definitely defeated, is not a good American, no matter in what way he may seek to disguise his attitude. It is to be hoped, for the country’s sake and for the comfort of all loyal Americans, that the can nominee for United States senator in Wiscon- sin. If this does not happen, very likely the demo- crats will elect the next senator from Wisconsin, But that would be a far less calamity than the nomination by the republicans of the LaFollette candidate.—Aberdeen News. TO CELEBRATE APRIL 6 AS WIN THE WAR DAY IN NORTH DAKOTA | i A PROCLAMATION | Since that memorable day in 1776 when our forefathers | met in solemn assemblage and drafted that marvelous docu- | ment, the Declaration of Independence, so dear to the heart | of every devoted son and daughter of these United States, | it has been a national custom to observe with appropriate | ceremonies the anniversary of that grand and glorious day that first ushered into your midst that priceless heritage | of mankind—DEMOCRACY. To obtain and also to retain |’ this blessing has cost us dear. It was not possible that a | greater price should have been exacted, for we gave the best | our nation had. Still we paid the price and hoped that | henceforth all battles might: be won thru the-ballot box alone. But a nation is not always the exclusive author of its own destinies. While we have labored and waxed optimistic over gratifying results obtained, and with bright prospects for the future of our own and other democratic nations, the most powerful and unscrupulous of military autocracies has been quietly, but surely, surrounding and undermining our democracy which we had come to believe was forever established. Again we find ourselves in the throes of the war, and with heavy hearts, but with grim determination have taken up the sword on behalf of humanity the world over, and ere we leave off will have dispatched this despotic monster once for all. To the flower of American manhood has been dele- gated this task. Many have already left our shores to en- gage in the conflict, others are rapidly fitting themselves to follow. Those who stay at home have an important part to perform. They must at least expect to bear the financial burden of the war. Appropriations by congress.are only the means to obtain the immediate necessary funds. The people of the nation have to furnish the money. We are now on the eve of another great Liberty Loan campaign and must meet the issue squarely as has been done in the preceding campaigns and thus thru willing and generous participation add another crowning triumph to the many North Dakota has already achieved April 6, the first. anniversary of America’s entry into the war, has been fittingly chosen as i the day in which to launch this great “drive.” Thru a | proper observance’ of this occasion we may cheer and en- ; courage those who.are fighting our battles and add rest to | the work in which we are about to engage. With this pur- pose in view I now call upon our people to set aside a brief | period during that day and assemble at their community . centers and with patriotic services pledge anew their active, undivided support to our government—the best in the world because closets to the people who make it possible...
