The Watertown Public Opinion
thinks that "the European war has
done much to eliminate factional lines
and to bring Americans to a realization
of the greatness and goodness Of our
nation, our public policies, and our
public men. II a presidential election
were to be held this fall Wilson would
probably carry every state in the
union. This does not mean all agree
with his policies, but that the people
agree with his peace policy, and that
they want both President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan on the job while this
war lasts. When a nations life is en-
dangered there is little interestin who
has the govt or what caused it,"

American women, sympatbizing with

world their allegiance to that banner

The plan of the South Dakota Pana-
ma commission to sell souvenirs at one
dollar per, looks like a polite hold up
and it should, in our opinion, be frown-
ed upon by the people of the state.
1t is in line with their efforts to sell
space to the different towns for the
moving picture films to be shown at
the fair. They wanted three dollars
a foot for space on the films, a charge
that they admitted was nine or ten
times the actual cost. The legislature
meets in January and If it is absolute
ly necessary for this state to have an
exhibit at San Francisco enough pres,
sure can be brought to bear upon that
body to induce them to make the
necessary appropriation without go
ing about the state holding up com
mercial clubs and private individuals.
