latest to come to our attention.
While we are not in the thiid con-
gressional district our heart will be
with the candidate whom we Judge
can beat John Il. Bartine, of Ga
coma, in the primaries. If we are
not mistaken in the man, the Bar
tine who announced a week ago
that he will be candidate for con-
gress in the third congressional
district is the same individual who
fought the printers in vicious
and unwarrante1 manner at the
last session of the legislature.

Somewhere. sometime we read
in the papers that England was
abolishing liquor in Great Britain ;
perhaps it is SO, however, they
neglected to screw the lid down
very tight, as it must be dream
of an intoxicated mind which sees
the United States at war with
Germany within the next sixty
days.

"HARD TO BEAT"

Senator CumminS of Iowa /,
quoted in IA Chicago Dispatch as
saying that President Wilson. If
he is a candidate for re election and
is nominated by the democatic
party, will be hard to beat. -
The senator 5 words are given rs II
warning to the republican party
and should be needed He is not
alone among republicans in the
realization Of this truth.
1t is admitted on all sides in this
section that the president is win
ming much popular approval by his
neutrality policy, and if the war
in Europe is not ended before it
comes time for the American voters
to select their next president, Will
son will be most formidable can
didate. The effort TO organize the
pro-German vote of the country IN
opposition to Wilson is strength
ening him on all sides, for if the
issue should become the right or
wrong of the policy Of the admir-
iStration as thus far followed, .,
American patriotism will be thrown
into the balance, and party lines
will be of less influence than III any
prior presidential campaign in the
country $ history. Nothing could
work more to the advantage OF the
president than to put Americanism
to the test of the ballots of the
American people.
If the war ends this year or ear
ly next, opinion will revert to the
domestic, rather than the foreign
policies Of the administration, and
party will be OF more consequence
in the electoral accounting. Even
if this situation transpires, the re-
publican party must not fall into
the error of thinking that it can
defeat Wilson with any old candi-
date. The progressive thinking of
a large proportion of the party
must be recognized. The republican
party can not appeal to the people
with reactionary platform and a
reactionary candidate and come un-
der the wire first. Independence
of thought and action dmoHg the
masses has become too pronounced
for that
The democratic party i giving
evidence of shrewd realization OF
the situation. Wilson was strong
before the war: and he is stronger
now. The party is mouing to con
serve that strength. 1t will take
equal shrewdness on the part of
of the republicans to break down
the defeuses being erected. Senator
CumminS is long sighted on his
concluSion that Wilson will ha
hard to beat. w Watertown Pub

The Gar stated at the beginning
of the war that Russia would be in
the war until the last soldier was
used up. His statement will come
true if he doesn't sue for an indie
pendent peace pretty soon and it
almost seems as though the allies
are willing to see it, for all the
support the Car is getting from

The tugs and the Minnesota are due

It is possible they viii put in San
