Under that delusion In ten short
years we have let our navy slough off

war breaks out. You cannot make q

Gardner said the United States was
not prepared for war when the Span
ish war broke out; that there was dit
ficulty in mobilization Of volunteers
and that some Of the states had not
furnished their quota OF troops even
when the war ended. He warned con-
gress that year after year naval board
and major generals had reiterated
that this country is not equipped for
conflict.
"They ask us to awake from oar
awful lethargy and grapple this ques-
ton on which our nations lie de-
pends," said Gardner. "Yet we go
stumbling and shutting along, scat
tering away millions OF dollars where
the votes grow thickest. What pos
sesses us? Are we blind or crazy
BY no means; but every voter has
been taught to believe that any min

At to face the world and We do not
like to tell them otherwise"
After comparisons of armies and
navies o. the world, Representative
Gardner concluded:
THE blame for our insecurity rests
on republicans and democratic alike,
but the root Of the whole matter 10
deeper. Our country has not awaken
e6 to understanding that ~ cent?
meter guns and superdreadnoughts
present stronger arguments than past
victories and present treaties. The
time has come for us to rub our eyes
and look about us"
President Wilson today ignored the
anti-German statement yesterday from
Representative Gardner. It was de-
cided that despite the presidents
warning to Americans to remain neu-
trail, nothing could be accomplished
either to rebuke Gardner or request
him to desist from future utterances.
Because Gardner Is republican ef-
forts to curb him would be doubly
difficult, it was deemed.

The announcement which The Gate

sure thing, they say.
The building of bridge here will
mean great deal to both Clark and
Lee county. The Clark county people
feel that bridge would give them
an outlet to a central market at Keo-
kuk for their produce. Keokuk peo-
pie are just as anxious to have the
bridge for it will be mutually help.
In Wayland the enthusiasm for the
proposed road Is delightful All OF
