which he received at local
store. OF course, he was unable
to say who had placed it there.
No doubt some individual fre-
quenting the place tucked it in
the bundle.
The attitude of the Record has
been upheld by many, con-
demned by some and misunder-
stood by the majority of the peo
pie Of the county. As to the en-
forcement of the law there can
be no question of the strength of
the Records position. Even
though a law might be even
wrong or unjust it will not make
it right nor will it foster good
government to countenance the
breaking of that law. Neither
can it be properly contended that
such a law may be ignored with
impugnity because some other
law or laws is not observed. And
so far as this state is concerned it
is strictly against the law to al
low the sale of intoxicants for use
as a beverage. Not only that,
but the people are waking up to
the fact that they must assert
themselves or the law-breaker
who sells intoxicants, usually re-
cruited from the drees of society,
will not only contaminate the cit
izenship with squirrel whiskey,"
but will in a measure dictate the
personnel of our county and
state, officials. Even the most
pronounced resubmissionist can
not be expected to countenance
such a condition.
| Neither can the attitude of the
Record be questioned in the mat
ter of the relative worth or detri-
ment of the liquor traffic to hu-
manity. 1t cannot be gainsaid
that liquor is always taboo where
physical strength and endurance
and high mental ability are req
uisites. In other words, we all
know that the public in general
would be better off were there no
such thing as booze" There
would be more happy and pro-
perly-provisioned families we're
such the case. A great waste of
resources would be stopped. Al
ready the economic demands of
the day are black-listing men in
the various pursuits of business.
There must be then only one
point on which there is reason
able excuse for diversity of
opinion, and that is the question
of the manner in which the
drink evil is to be handled. There
are many honorable and upright
men who are firm believers in
high-license and the control of the
drink business. There are many
other substantial and discerning
citizens who believe in absolute
prohibition. 1t must be admit
ted by all that prohibition that
does not prohibit is a poor bus
iness. On the other hand, the
evils of high-license are many and
pronounced. In fact. the whole
subject resolves itself to the one
question, What do the peo-
pie demand?" Politicians will
not cater to the blind-pigger from
choice. Rather, the fact that
they have reason to believe the
strength of the blind-pigger and
his friends will perpetuate them

The action OF the German govern
ment in disavowing the Arabic at
tack and agreeing to pay indemnity
for lives lost and property injured is
complete demonstration Of the fact
that Germany never desired war with
the United States and WAS at all times
prepared to yield when she was salts
field that American policy was backed
by determination and American words
were more than empty words.
Had Germany believed Mr.. Wilson
meant his "strict accountability"
note, the Lusitania would not have
been sunk Had Berlin felt that the
omit no word or act message which
followed the Lusitanla massacre was
a declaration OF purpoce. the first
crime would have been disGvowed.
Had WilhelmstrasEe been satisfied
that the deliberately unfriendly"
communication was an Authentic ul-
timatum. there would have been no
Arabic incident
The truth OF all this is made per-
fectly patent by what has happened
since the Arabic incident On the
morrow Of that last outrage the voice
Of whole people was heard. From
one end Of the nation to the other the
fact was recognized that there could
be no more notes, words, remon-
strances-that. unless Germany
should now consent to change her
course, a break was inevitable. and II
break was but the first step toward
war.
This Count Won Bernstorff promptly
realized and with equal promptness
made clear TO his own government.
Compare his instant appeal TO wash
ington for a hearing when he read
the press Of the hours following the
Arabic with his self-restralnt az all
other times. In effect he asked for
time 10 make Berlin fully understand
that the American people were in
charge of their foreign affairs and
that the American people were no
longer too proud to fight our last
Lusitania note had been treated by
Berlin with silent contempt, but the
ominous official silence that fol-
lowed the Arabic incident reused the
German Ambassador to eager protes.
tation
The best that can be said for tho
present solution of the German
American difficulties, n. as seems.
there IS a solution. Is that we have
muddled through We have escaped
Tho danger Of being dragged into an
rnominious war. because Germany.
having consulted her own interests.
has decided that there is more profit
that there is more profit in peace than

great moral victory won by American
diplomacy and by pacific methods. All
such talk is mere sham. Throughout
the whole debate we have been pro-
tected by Allied fleets and we have
but hurled high-sounding words at a
nation assailed by half the world in
arms. And IL was only when we laid
aside high-sounding words and III
weighed ultimatums and faced the
fact. recognized that recourse to other
than pacific methods had become well
nigh inevitable. that the r~al peril
was ayerted.
The bitterest thought of all must
be that had Germany believed in
February that we meant what we
said, had she then possessed any rea-
son for thinking that the American
government and people we're actually
prepared to hold to "strict account
ability" those who murdered Ameri-
can citizens, there would have been
