Champ is Champin9

Champ Clark, the Speaker of the House,
has had another verbal outbreak. He
condemns those who hamper" the Pres
ident by expressing opinions and urges
that every lingo who talks war shall be
sent to the trenches AS for the public
expression of opinion, that is an Ameri-
can privilege and so far as we know no
person or newspaper has violated this
prerogative of free speech. President
Wilson, it is repeatedly said at Washing
ton, courts the opinion of the country
that he may be guided. and his course
throughout the war has been largely in
fluenced by the American press, which re-
fleets American sentiment and which has
shown unusual moderation, decency and
restraint.
As regards the war agitators and the
limoges, they are scarce. There appears
to be mighty few people in this country
with passion for strife. The European
war is a good ways off and is none of
our business, is the general American SEN
timent.
So long as the American rights are not
invaded there is not the slightest danger
of this republic entering the war. All
this republic wants is to be let alone in
the enjoyment of life, Liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness.

Keeping Cattle for Profit

The Springfield Reporter has given
considerable publicity to the success of
two sons of banker who bought regis
tered Guernsey COW and made good mon
ey out of the deal. Caledonia county
has young lady that has rather beaten
the boys. Miss Louise E. Wilson of East
Ryegate five years ago induced her father
to allow her to buy a registered Holstein
heifer calf for $50. The heifer has pro-
duced one heifer and three bull calves
that the girl sold for Sl55. This spring
she sold the COW for 500, thus clearing
up S225 above the original cost of her
heifer, the milk she produced having
paid her keeping while the girl kept her.
Here is a good example for the other
boys and girls to follow. Note also that
in each case the money was made with
pure bred stock.

There is no controversy between the
United States and Germany. All the
President asks is reasonable. 1t is
summed up in a sentence: Don't kill
Americans. Whatever cause for conflict
may exist over events already recorded
has been waived. The President simply
puts the question up to Germany in
very moderate note: Will you guarantee
to respect the lives of the people of the
United States? And adds: If you will
not, what attitude would you expect us
to take? 1t is like saying to one man
who has grievance against another
man: Don't strike an innocent bystander.
