"BACKING UP WILSON"

louag tue plBgeet anu tue great
est man in the world is Woodrow
Wilson, president Of the United
States. Today the eyes Of 100, ,OoO-
900 American souls, and the eyes
OF every nation under the sun are
turned TO President Wilson. To.
day President Wilson bows his
head in sorrow and weeps with
every true American citizen over
the loss at sea of more than one
hundred American lives aboard a
British ship, which was tcrpedoed
by a German submarine.
IL is the gravest situation an
American President has experienced
SINCE the sinking Of the Maine at
Havana IN 1898. Thousands Of
kilograms are pouring into the
President hourly urging him to call
Congress together for the purpose
Of declaring war. Thousands Of
Americans are urging him to de.
clare war against Germany, and as
many would gladly accept a declar.
alton OF war against Great Britain.
But, grave as the situation may
seem, the President is going TO bide
his time, and he, no doubt, feels
that after the heat of passion shall
have passed, the great majority Of
American people, who have placed
their confidence in him and are
ready at a moments call to back
HIM mp, will receive a message Of
peace from him with much more
enthusiasm than they would wei.
come declaration of war.
We people of America are
American citizens, and it matters
not where our sympatbies may lie
in the European struggle, it makes
our blood tingle to stand by and
see American ciuzens-innocent
men, women and children-murder-
ed. The way both Germany aud
England are conducting the present
titanic struggle is not only disgust
ing TO civilization, it Is hellish.
IL has reached a point where an
American citizen cannot sympathlze
with either side. 1t has reached a
stage Of barbarism, il is digusting,
it is uncivilized, it is murderous.
The editor of the Star Herald hopes
he will never be heard to speak a
word of praise or sympathy for any
European power now engaged IN
war. Innocent American blood has
been spilled, and il President Will.
son is for war America Is ready 10
back him; if he is for peace and
feels that it would be a disgrace
for a civilized nation such as ours
to engage ir the present struggle,
America is ready to back him up.
And President Wilson Is going to
declare the United States for peace.
In his great speech in Philadelphia
Monday be SAID America must be
the example not merely of peace
because 1t will not fight, but OF
peace because peace IS the healing
and elevating influence of the world,
aud strife Is not. "There is such a
thing as a man being too proud to
fight. There is such a thing as a
nation being so right that 1t does
not need to convince others by
force that it Is right" said the
President. And 100, 200, ,O0O
American citizens are backing the
President up.

According to the figures Of the
federal bureau of crop estimates,
Arkansas wheat crop this year will
surpass the crop of 1914 by 600, 900
bushels. Randolph county's wheat
crop will exceed the 1914 crop by
several thousand bushels, and we
take little personal pride In the
fact that since the first OF last May
the Star Herald has been constantly
urging the farmers of Randolph
county to plant more wheat. While
we might not be responsible for the
increased acreage, yet we are re
joicing with the rest that we have it.

My Dear Sir: If affords me great

There is. not a man living today

THE ATLANTA DAILTES MAKE
THIS ATLANTA MAN LONG
FOR A REAL NEWSPAPER.

Dear Sir: I am glad to see that
we have one real paper in the good
old state today which has proven the
rights and practiced the laws which
our forefathers made and gave us.
Our community at large has been
blasphemed, but we are wide awake
to see that we have some patriotic
and noble men yet living in our
midst.
For the past two years we have
had lots to read about, and we have
had opinions expressed and only
record of which stands to view IN
old Marietta today can tell the story.
Uncle Tom, you are a deserving man
and | wish to read after you long
time yet, and hope that the day will
come when your true word will have
it's way and weight on every living
man in the world. Everyone knows
you and knows your principles, and
that you intend doing what's right,
it matters not whether rich or poor.
[ have never taken pains to write
to you, but as I am at the capital
and mixed with many people all over
the country, I have tried to treat
them all alike. You will hear from
me again and a little stronger.

THE ELECTION is UPON US.

TNVERYBODY has been so reticent about the
~ approaching municipal election that we had
positively lost sight of it altogether until the
chairman of of the local political parties hand
ed in his call for primary yesterday. This brings
us face to face with the problem of the choice of
mayor, three city councilmen, city recorder
and city treasurer again? Who are we going to
name? That is the question. Who shall it be :?
The present mayor has filled the position with
dignity and ability, and we have heard no radical
criticism either of his personal conduct or of his
administration. But sometimes, particularly if
the emoluments are very meagre, men feel that
enough is good as feast, and will not consider
second or third term We do not know what the
feelings are of the present city officers. But one
Office is most assuredly vacant. That is the office
of Recorder, the incumbent recently started on
mission to Europe. 1t would be well for every
voter to run over in his own mind the available
timber" for filling the various vacancies, and in
the mean time, if any citizen has aspirations to
any of the offices, will be pleased to publish his
announcement in this regard. No use of being
backward. You know the old addage about the
faint heart.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

NOTWITHSTANDING there is derth of
cash in southern Utah, as elsewhere all
over the Western country, it is not to be denied
that the outlook is good for this section of the
country in business way. Sheep are our prin-
cipal dependence to bring money into the coun-
try, and the fact that lambs are bringing higher
price this fall than for many years is matter of
congratulation and is certain to have beneficial
effect upon business generally. At the prices sold
for many of the sheep men have received as high
as 81 per head for their last springs lambs In
years gone by from 81 to $2.75 was considered a
satisfactory figure. In addition to this the corn
and hog industry will help local conditions quite
a little this season. Crops have been fair, not
withstanding unfavorable conditions in certain To-
calities, and there is about an average amount of
building and other industrial work being DONE
The attendance at practically all the high schools
of the south is reported better than usual, and
taking all things together even with tax time
staring us in the face we feel that we have reason
for congratulation There are great many places
on the Pacific slope where conditions are not near
y so satisfactory they are here and it all goes
to show that southern Utah and particularly Iron
county is mighty good place to pitch your tent |!

HOW WILL WE RANK?

:" OW will Cedar City rank in the clean-town
Il Il contest this year when the representative
of the State Board of Health makes his call within
day or two? Do we feel satisfied in our own
minds with the showing we will be able to make
or are we afflicted with the thoughts that we might
have done better If we had only have tried ear
nestly? Are all the things done and improve
ments made that we had planned, or did we lack
the execution or dispatch to put them into effect
We fear that a number of us are in this latter
condition.
Still, there are many things on which we
may feel to congratulate ourselves The district
school building, which was one of our weakest
points in the contest last year. is being rapidly re-
placed with new and modern one that would do
credit to any town. and while the building will not
be ready for occupancy. for few weeks yet still
the fact that it is under way and will soon be
ready will be taken into consideration in awarding
our per cents.
Some good and substantial improvements have
been made to some of the streets of the city, and
the springling of Main street is strong point in
our favor. decided Improvement has been made
in the manner of disposition of garbage, and in
other ways we have made progress, but we fear
that not enough attention has been paid to a num-
Der of the little details, particularly about private
premises, to warrant any very strong hopes of OBJ
tanning first place honors this year.
