As a result of the failure of Republicans to vote in 1916 the American people have been sad- due to Democratic waste, that we would not now have. You may figure it out for yourself just what you have lost in your neglect of duty. ty A half million more Republican votes in 1916 evenly distributed over the country would have meant an overwhelming yictory for the Republican } candidate. Nébody will deny that these votes could have been secured had every Republican in the country performed his duty, and cast his ballot. The contest this year has not been so debatable in its outcome as that of four years ago, but the issues to be determined are equally momentous, patriotism lose, wil] be just as heavy if not heavier. A sufficient number of slack: votes can throw away victory even at the eleventh hour, and it be- hooves us now to realize the consequences. and The first and simple duty on election day of | every American cjtizen, with pride of country at | heart, will be to go to his polling place’ and do his | bit in the final assault against the forces of de- struction. < f WE'LL SAY WHEN. On the occasion of President Wilson’s invitation to the Republican’ senators to call at the White call. the question put to the president by Senator ee It is a part of the public records. It was is : i “Mr. President, allow me to ask this question? Suppose that it is perfectly obvious and accepted that there is an external aggression against some power, and suppose it is perfectly obvious and ac- | cepted that it cannot be repelled except by force of arms, would we be under any legal obligation to ‘participate ?”” ; ” - Yo which the president replied as follows: “No, sir; but we would be undey an absolutely compelling moral obligation.” The president has repeatedly proclaimed since that a moral obligation outweighs a legal obliga- tion. Senator Knox®says: ® “T take myself out of the sweep of Mr. Wilson’s malediction. | entirely agree with him that ‘we would be under an absolutely compelling moral ob- ligation’ to go to war under the circumstances named, J can wink of nothing more inexorable than ‘an absolutely compelling moral obligation.’ ” Once more here is article ten: “The members-of the league undertake to re- spect and prserve against external aggression the territorial integrity and existing political independ- ence of all members of the league. In case of any guch aggression ox in case of any threat oy danger of such aggression the ‘council shall advise’ upon’ the means by which this obligation shall “be ful- When it becomes a part of a treaty signed by the United States, that treaty is not only a moral obligation, but a Jegal one, in our code. And be it legal or moral or both, as Mr. Wilson or anyone else may view it. .An American's word is as good as his bond. Under that article, if one European nation attacked another we most surely would go to war. That’s why the Republican party opposes that article in the Wilson league. Our own people will say when we shall go to war, and for what purpose. Not Mr. Wilson, nc. a group of European nations. Nobody shall tell us when to fight. We will ar- range that matter ourselves. DESTRUCTION OR CONSTRUCTION. — In.the affairs of life The Tribune will not be found ‘upon the side of those who delight in criti- cism for criticism’s sake, Its inclination is to draw the mantle of charity over the mistakes and errors of humanity because humanity is weak and it is human to err.
