The Tribune respectfuly invites the attention of its readers, no matter what their political affiliations or their economic beliefs may be, to a careful an- alysis of the proposed league amendments which appears on the first page of today's issue, over the signature of Associate Justice J. E. Robinson. J. EB. Robinson is one of the greatest leagers of all. Ile was eleeted to the supreme bench two idark. with their eyes closed, but should have time | Ito carefully study an issue of sueh supreme im-| j portance. | | Speaking as a Nonpartisan leaguer, Judge Robin- Ison urges the defeat of seven out of the ten amend- ; ‘ments proposed by Mr. Townley for approval at the | November election. For this independence and eour- | lage of conviction, Judge Robinson no doubt will be} promptly exeommunicated by the St. Paul trium. | irate which seeks to direct the destinies of the , If Judge Robinson goes. | however, he will earry with him thousands of follov V ers who have come to admire his fearlessness and his honesty. ‘ Judge Robinson in the “Saturday Evening Let- whieh The Tribune today gives first page prom- NITEDQTATES nconditional urrender WE MUST FIGHT TO THE END. WHY. All America stands behind President Wilsan in| his decision that America must fight on, till Ger-| many is defeated utterly, till the Hokenzollern | autocracy is overthrown or impotent. } But, lest those arise who cry “We have fought | enough; our enemy asks peace !”—lest those arise | to confuse us, we must examine the case and know, | in our own minds, why we have NOT fought! enough. | No matter what the Germans now say, no mat- | ter what the Hohenzollerns now promise, we have NOT YET made the world “safe for democracy.” Not even safe for human beings to live in. There will be more wars, but if we are to make them harder to happen; if we are to make them impossible at the nod of an autocrat, not only must the autocrats be made powerless, but-the nation which sought to conquer the world for} autocracy must be rendered incapable of making another such attempt. We cannot trust the Hohenzollerns—everybody agrees to that. But what we must also realize is this: WE CAN- NOT TRUST THE GERMAN NATION. And so, with no thougnt of punishment, but solely for the safety of the world, we must fight on until the German nation, unable to fight longer, shall throw down its arms and give itself up com- pletely to contemplation of the uselessness of war and conquest. - | Before we can deal justice to the German nation we must be deadly sure that the German nation is ready to receive justice at our hands. There can be no bargaining with the Germans: not bargain with its criminals; neither does it punish them unduly. But before criminals get justice they must be tried; and so must Germany be tried, in the court of the nations—not while she is a world-criminal, beaten and seeking to escape, but after she is a world-prisoner, defeated and impotent. * * * “But the kaiser, not the German people, are re- sponsible for the HUNnish crimes!” Such runs the latest specious plea for peace-at-the-least-price. | It is not true. The German people are rational beings, who can-! not blame their rulers entirely for German crimes. The soldiers who murdered Edith Cavell, the officers who raped Belgian girls, the U-boat crews who sank the Lusitania, the vandals who laid waste to northern France, the gunners who fired from behind the crucifix, the men used captive women as shields, the tricky beings who rose crying “Kamerad!” while companions sighted ‘machine guns from between their legs—these were not German kaisers; these were GERMAN PEOPLE. And the world cannot beleive that the reform of such as these would be accomplished even by the downfall of their leader. The lesson must sink deeper. The German. people, shorn of their Prussian arrogance, must realize to the uttermost that war- fare does not pay. Until they do, there are no guarantees the world ean accept that will safeguard future generations from another such disaster. * * * When the Hohenzollerns are dethroned or their power is gone, when Germany is prostrate and her; armies disbanded—then we will know that the world: can be MADE safe for humanity as for democracy. These consequences to Germany are not revenge. They are the reasonable, rational conclusion of that which we started-out to do. We entered this war to defeat Germany absolutely. The slogan linenee has contributed the most important chapter [win tam eorrors | to the literature of the present political campaign, | ‘ ' | | { 1 | WITH THE EDITORS ae NO TRUCE BUT MORE PUNCH. The proper answer. to the latest bogus peace} offer from Berlin was that suggested by Senator j Knute Nelson, who said we should refer such offer | to talk about peace to General Foch. This would ; military clique that they would find their answer | in the action of Bulgaria. ! President Wilson says no armistice or discussion ; of peace is to be thought of while the forces of the} central power are on invaded territory. If we} talking peace for some weeks at least. but to drop her bloody loot, go home and receive her sentence. A convicted criminal has no stand- ing in court or at a peace table. The great and and the war lords know it, so they are ‘ready to; talk peace. | The allied fighters, who are punching holes in} with complete defeat. American fighters here at home, who are furnishing ammunition for the “American. super guns, which shoot 3,000 miles,” are determined to make this Fourth Liberty Loan} a knockout blow for the foe, and are in complete} harmony with our boys over there, who will be} satisfied with nothing less than a victorious peace. | It was the'late James J. Hill who said, “That | made up its mind to finish and finish quickly, this bloody, lousy, miserable business and have done ‘with it forever.’—Commercial West. PEACE: NEEDS PREPAREDNESS, TOO. The New Republic, too, has taken up the cam- paign to induce nation, states and communities ito pian public works to give employment to re-| turned soldiers so that a period of unemployment with its train of disaster may be averted. The Herald has been urging consideration of this plan ever since America entered the war, and has re- enter peace unprepared as it is to enter war un- prepared. The New Republic takes for its text the old story of the Arkansaw traveler who encountered a native fiddling cheerfully away before a cabin with a leaky roof. Asked why he didn’t mend the jroof, the native replied: “When it rains I can't, jand when it don’t rain I don’t need to.” ; “In our national attitude toward unemployment jwe adopt a similar attitude and run into the same, lazy dilemma,” says the New Republic. “We can- not solve the problem of unemployment during periods of actual depression, when hungry men tramp the streets in search of jobs; on the other hand, when. as today, the job is looking for the man, the whole problem of unemployment seems unreal. The world would be revolutionized if men| {could think six months ahead. “Frotunately we need-no longer argue that un- employment is no concern of the nation. Ten years ago, even two years ago, we should have had 'to meet the contention that employment and un- employment were the private affairs of capitalist and wage-earner. In this land of unbounded op- portunities any industrious man. it was claimed, could always find jobs if the matter were left to private initiative. Private initiative! How hollow purpose. To do anything less than that would be ‘a job half done, carrying with it all the well-known results of ineffectiveness.

To Physicians and Friends of Patients Sick With Epidemic Influenza: The mfost of the deaths from the present epidemic of influenza, in Burleigh county, have occurred amongst patients transported long distances, to hospitals, when in an exhausted condition. Physicians and friends of patients, in the country, are therefore warned against sending patients to the hospitals when the mental and physical shock of removal from home will be dangerous to the patient. Notwithstanding the difficulty of providing medical attendance and trained nurses in the country, patients, as a rule, do well when kept at rest and in houses where thorough ventilation is assured by'|’ keeping doors. and windows open. , It is forbidden, by state and federal health regulations, to, trans- port patients sick with epidemié influenza on trains or other public ’|the puble that I am the writer of an article by one O’Toole characterizing ‘our Superintendent of Public Instric- \tion.
